We'd like to take time to remember and honor dedicated Literacy Council supportor John Milisauskas. He was a wonderful board member, board president, and even interim executive director who touched the lives of so many here at the Literacy Council. He was awarded the Green Bay Packers Service Award in part for his efforts to support literacy. He will be very missed. We will always remember his kindness.
