The Rev. Douglas C. Halvorsen, president and chief executive officer of The Evergreens Continuing Care Community has announced his retirement effective Feb. 4. Halvorsen joined The Evergreens board of trustees in 1995 and was hired as executive vice president there in 1999. He was named president and CEO in 2002 and served in that position untilĀ 2018.

As time allows, Halvorsen will pursue his love of hunting and most importantly, having the opportunity to spend more time with his family, particularly his two grandchildren who live in Omaha. Halvorsen currently resides with his wife in Mount Laurel and DiamondĀ Beach.

ā€œWe wish Doug all the best as he retires after a long, dedicated career committed to serving the needs of the residents and families of The Evergreens,ā€ said Board Chair of The Evergreens Calvin H.
