Hon. Joseph N. Laplante received the Nashua Bar Association’s Annual Ted Jordan Humanitarian Award, an award presented to members that exemplify the spirit of the late Ted Jordan – active Nashua bar member and humanitarian, at the Association’s meeting on April 24, 2008.

The award was presented to Judge Laplante by Attorney Tim Bush – a good friend and former roommate who also worked for Ted Jordan – and Attorney Joe Gall, Ted Jordan’s former law partner.

Like Ted Jordan, said Nashua bar members, Judge Laplante has a strong history of civic involvement in the Nashua community, including most recently his volunteer work for the Nashua Police Athletic League & Youth Safe Haven, the Corpus Christi Food Pantry and the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Nashua.
