Taffel Dies at 92 http://www.prweb.com/releases/2007/05/prweb529599.htm Bessie Berinhout Taffel, record-setting volunteer and local Atlanta hero, died May 23rd at age 92. She held the record for the most volunteer hours given to a Veteran's Administration Medical Center, having served there for the past 34 years and given over 83,000 hours to America's soldiers and families in need. Not surprisingly, just 48 hours before her death at Emory University Hospital, Taffel drove herself to her full-time, unpaid volunteer position and began her day as she has for the past three and a half decades. Having become indispensable to the hospital, she was named the VA's Employee of the Year in 1984, despite her volunteer status. When asked why she never accepted a salary at the VA though offered one, Bess explained with a twinkle in her eye, "Why become an employee? They could never pay me what I'm worth!"
