Ron Burroughs, one of Genesee County's most tireless volunteers, especially when it comes to his work with Habitat for Humanity, was honored Friday for his efforts.
Burroughs was given the 2010 Health and Humanitarian Award by the Jerome Foundation.
"I can't put it into words," Burroughs chuckled during his acceptance speech. "It's just...I have a hard time comprehending it, really. It seems like there's so many other people out there who deserve it, but they named me...it just floored me."
Ron is a member of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Batavia, and is directing the construction of a new addition there as well.

Genesee County Habitat for Humanity is starting its eighth house in about 11 years.
The blessing, with the new family that will be working along with many volunteers to completely renovate the house, was held Saturday afternoon with friends and relatives in attendence.
Angelina, Nikalina and Carmelina have been selected for the house at 150 State Street in Batavia.
The mother of two will have to complete hours of "sweat equity," and when finished, the keys will be turned over to her family.
Habitat will carry a 30-year, interest-free mortgage on the cost of materials.
Check geneseehabitat.com for updates on the progress of the renovations and all questions about Habitat.
Jessica Tomidy, executive director of GCHFH, on right, assisted with the blessing.
