Originally from Union County, the couple moved to Morrow County in the early 1970s. Raising their family in Boardman, Fran- ces was an educator and Ed, an attorney. During one of the fre- quent periods when Board- man had no local newspa- per, Ed wrote, edited and published a brief newslet- ter for the community. He served brieÀy on the city planning commission in 1997 and began more than eight years of service on the Boardman City Council in 2003. He was mayor from 2005-08. After a brief break, Glenn was appointed to ¿ll a vacancy on the council in 2010, serving until 2012. Frances has always been beside Ed, encouraging him from behind the scenes. She was a compassionate and nurturing educator, and a great asset to the Boardman community, as well, a nom- ination letter said. Others receiving recog- nition included: Penny Jurney was recog- nized as Citizen of the Year for her spirit of giving in helping organize the Com- munity Thanksgiving Din- ner each year. A nomination letter said Jurney is the kind of person the award was created to recognize. Maria Richards received Business Person of the Year. Owner of Boardman Hard- ware, Richards has volun- teered with many programs and events, including youth soccer, Cinco de Mayo, Christmas lighting and fundraising for the new Riv- erside High School track.
