2026 Second District Senior Legacy Awards

What an incredible celebration! Our 2026 Second District Senior Legacy Awards was a tremendous success, and Supervisor Spiegel is thrilled to share that the event completely sold out.
Although Supervisor Spiegel couldn't attend while on medical leave, she has been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support for this special event and, most importantly, for the remarkable seniors we gathered to honor. Seeing our community come together to recognize their service, leadership, and lasting contributions means more to me than I can express.
Please join Supervisor Spiegel's once again in congratulating our seven outstanding honorees:
• Harold “Harry” Larson, Canyon Lake
• Robert “Bob” Small, Corona
• Woody Hwang, Eastvale
• Brenda Gunder, Jurupa Valley
• Monica Figueroa, Lake Elsinore
• Diane Hill, Norco
• Maria Emma Wharton, Countywide Honoree
Supervisor Spiegel's heartfelt thanks go to our sponsors, community partners, participating cities, chambers of commerce, the Riverside County Foundation on Aging, volunteers, staff, and every guest who helped make this celebration possible. The event’s success belongs to all of you.
Supervisor Spiegel is already looking forward to next year’s Senior Legacy Awards. To our Second District cities, it is never too early to begin thinking about the exceptional senior you would like to nominate next year. There are so many deserving individuals whose stories and service deserve to be celebrated!
