Two Bluffton couples earned special honors from the Bluffton Senior Citizens Association in December, according to Tonya Meyer, director.
Roger and Jo Edwards and Harlan and Pat Basinger were named Volunteers of the Year. The association board based the award on “their hard work to make the center a better place.” The awards were presented during the December dinner meeting.
The Center has several other announcements at the close of the year.
Raymond and Liz Harner, owners of CG Pro Bikes, 127 N. Main St., working with Allen County Public Health have developed a smoke-free property at the bike shop, the Curling Iron, 129 N. Main St. and their residential units on the second floors of their building.
Signage indicating that the property is smoke-free is posted at several places on the property, including the parking lot behind the building and at the entry ways.

Now that it is publicly known that Jim Kinn will be retiring, all of us at Stratton Auto Sales and Bluffton Auto Repair Center would like to wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors. We want to thank him for the year and a half that he has been with us in opening the new repair shop.
We look forward to working with the public as we remain open and operational. Mr. Kinn has helped train the person that will be taking over the repair shop for him and we have all the confidence in the world in our new manager.
