Dillsburg, Pa. (November 17, 2025) – On October 29, 2025, Presbyterian Senior Living (PSL), the not-for-profit organization providing residential senior living and care services to more than 6,000 older adults in 27 locations across the mid-Atlantic region of Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio and Delaware, inducted five new individuals into its distinguished Chairman’s Circle. More than 50 people attended the luncheon celebration at Allenberry in Boiling Springs, Pa.

Founded in 1988, the Chairman’s Circle honors individuals who have donated generously of their time, talent, and treasure to further PSL’s mission and have made a unique contribution to PSL’s success. No more than five new members are inducted each year, and nominations are submitted by PSL board members, executive directors, team members, and other stakeholders.

This year’s Chairman's Circle inductees are:
