October’s Hometown Hero: Breast Cancer Fighter Julie Coon
County Waste has partnered with us to honor those in our communities who are truly making a difference.
All throughout the 2014-15 year, we will be recognizing one “hero” per month based on their inspirational feats, work helping their neighbors and every day passion.
This month's hero is Julie Coon, a Glens Falls resident currently battling breast cancer. Julie is also a military wife who goes out of her way to show appreciation for those serving overseas.
Check out our video for Julie and see how you can nominate a hero next month when we're honoring military veterans and those serving overseas.
