In a proclamation given to her at the council meeting, and read by Mayor Jerard Murphy and her granddaughter, Payton Spidaletto, she was referred to as one of Sparta’s “revered senior citizens.”
“The honor is well-deserved, and she’s one of the most caring and passionate people you could ever hope to meet,” township manager William Close said.
