Foundation presents Sells with Cornerstone Award
Each year the Monroe Area Community Foundation presents the Cornerstone Award to a person who displays an unselfish use of time or money, for no personal gain, for the betterment of the Monroe community. This year's award recognizing service to the community was presented to Phyllis Sells by Tim Williams at the MAFC's eleventh annual meeting on April 24. Mrs. Sells was instrumental in working to establish the lending library in Monroe.
