Stamford's SilverSource To Honor Bestselling Author At Annual Luncheon

STAMFORD, CT — SilverSource, the nonprofit agency that provides services and resources for older adults in need in the Stamford area, will host its annual Inspiring Lives Luncheon on Thursday, May 15, at 11:30 a.m. at the Woodway Country Club in Darien, where bestselling author, screenwriter and playwright Delia Ephron will be honored with the 2025 Adele Gordon Inspiring Lives Award.

The event recognizes an individual whose work reflects compassion and resilience, while also raising awareness and funds to support seniors facing instability and hardship.

Ephron’s remarkable determination to "go for it" no matter what life dishes out – compellingly and hilariously chronicled in her memoir "Left on Tenth" and its recent Broadway adaptation – serves as a powerful example of embracing second chances. Each attendee will receive a copy of the book

“We are thrilled to honor and celebrate Delia Ephron,” said SilverSource CEO Kathleen Bordelon in a news release. “We look forward to Delia inspiring us with her story of resilience in overcoming the challenges of illness and loss, yet still being open to new beginnings in love and in life.”

New York Mets public address announcer Colin Cosell is slated to emcee the luncheon.

“With funds raised at the Inspiring Lives Luncheon, SilverSource can provide the resources, guidance, and care needed to help seniors move from crisis to lasting stability,” Bordelon added. “Together, we can uplift those who need community support and ensure they have the resources they need to thrive.”
