plus years. Thank you, I’m honored.” Mooney received a standing ovation.
Mooney, a Sr. V.P. with Wilkins & Associates recently

and commercial real estate for the Better Homes and Gardens brand.
Said Thomas R. Wilkins, CEO, “What an honor. To retire and immediately thereafter receive Realtor of the Year in the same breath
is humbling. Dennis has done so much for
our community and so much for the Pocono real estate industry through the
years; he’s a natural for the award.”
Recipient of Realtor
of the Year is chosen by peer members of the Association.
Licensed since 1973 and as an Assoc Broker in 1986,

extensive.
Mooney served on the Board of Directors of Easter Seals

Arthritis Foundation., both on the local and at the Eastern Pennsylvania

active in Habitat for Humanity in the future.
Mooney served as an appointed person on the Smithfield

Said Mooney, “I came to the Poconos in the early 70s;
started as a ski instructor at Camelback in the winter and golf pro in the
summer. I graduated from ESU where I’m an active alumnus and then got involved
in the Pocono real estate industry. I
worked for Charles Poalillo in the development of Penn Estates for
approximately 12 years, owned my own business constructing townhomes and condos
before joining the Wilkins organization and working with Tom and Christine. It’s been a hell-of-a run.”
