		 Ruth 
		Hieronymus (above in red), of Atlanta, was recently recognized by Illinois 
		Gov. Pat Quinn for exceptional volunteerism. Hieronymus received the 
		award as a member of the Senior Corps, for her participation in the 
		Community Action Partnership of Central Illinois Foster Grandparent 
		program. As a volunteer in the program, she works with children on a 
		one-on-one basis in the classroom. She is also very well known in 
		Logan County for her tireless work with Relay For Life. Last year 
		Ruth, known to most in this area as Ruth Ann, was the honorary chair and 
		kicked off the annual walking event at Lincoln College. She 
		is a cancer survivor several times over, and many testified that she was 
		a great help to them in their battle and a true advocate for early 
		detection.
