Dale Gratz
Ms. Gratz has lived in Miami Beach for over 40 years. She and her
husband have three children and five grandchildren. Ms. Gratz
received her degree from Sophie Newcomb College (today part of
Tulane University) and spent several years as a social worker in
New Orleans and Chicago. Throughout her 40 years on Miami
Beach, Ms. Gratz has never hesitated to give of herself to her
community. She began her volunteer efforts with the National
Council of Jewish Women and today is a lifetime member of that
organization. She served as a Guardian Ad Litem for 11 years,
advocating on behalf of abused and neglected children. Dale has
volunteered in area public schools and served as a mentor for at-
risk students. She has served on the Board of Trustees and the
School Board for Temple Beth Sholom, in addition to volunteering
in the synagogue's monthly "Feeding the Hungry" program for the
past 15 years. Eight years ago, Dale signed on as poll worker
earning minimum wage "to help make voting a more pleasant
experience" for the citizens of Miami Beach. Also, Ms. Gratz is a
long-time member of the Commission on the Status of Women
until she was recently "termed out". We were sorry to see her go -
but happy to honor her tonight. For Ms. Gratz is one of those
quiet, tireless worker bees. When told she would receive this
award, she was shocked, overwhelmingly honored and most of all,
humble. "I've never done anything big or spectacular." However
her outlook on life sums it all up: "I've always felt fortunate in my
life and felt I had to give back in some way or I would not be able
to live with myself."
