No person left behind: How SALUTE, INC helps military personnel financially, emotionally

SALUTE, INC. was founded in 2003 by Will and Mary Beth Beiersdorf. Will, a Naval reservist, was deployed to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, shortly after 9/11.

Constable: Pandemic brings us Honey, I shrunk the Holiday Housewalk

Note: This column has been updated to correct the spelling of Judy Hasenjaeger s name. With the 2020 pandemic scuttling the Mount Prospect Historical Society s 33rd Annual Holiday Housewalk, the group is using a new idea and toys from the past to save its biggest fundraiser of the year. It was my first idea, right out of the gate, says Emily Dattilo, 27, a Mount Prospect native hired in July as the society s new director.
