Hiawatha Mayor Bill Collins ( R) presented a certificate of appreciation to Jere Bruning ( L) Monday evening for his service to the community.
(KNZA)--A longtime Hiawatha resident has been honored for his service to the community.
During Monday evening's Hiawatha City Commission meeting, Mayor Bill Collins presented a certificate of appreciation to Jere Bruning, and offered his thanks for everything he’s done for the city.
Bruning was recognized for his service on various boards and committees, along with contributions of financial support to various groups.
The certificate says Bruning’s commitment to Hiawatha is “ a model for all to follow.”
After retiring from farming and moving to Hiawatha, Bruning said he decided to start volunteering to get to know people in town.
And about 30 years later, he still remains activity in the community.
