M. George H. Ricard
Franco-American of the Year 1999
Lowell, Massachusetts



George Ricard is an active member of Lowell’s Franco-American Day Committee and served as its President in 1981. He is also a key member of the Franco-American Club of Forge Village located in the neighboring town of Westford. He was chosen for this award in recognition of his tireless efforts in maintaining the F-A Club as a vibrant entity in the life of Franco-Americana. After it burned to the ground in 1994, George Ricard was a prime mover in seeing to its re-construction and resumption of activities within two years.
