The Monroe Noon Optimist’s lost a very special member in March of 2026 and she is certainly missed. The late Ann Wells enjoyed working and serving the youth of our county. Because of her love of Optimists and children, her brother John, and wife Diane, donated a generous amount of money to be used to help the local youth. Several other donations were given at that time as well. Our board of directors chose to divide these donations between the Monroe Public Schools and St. Victor School to be used for children in need. Today our officers presented a donation to Brittany Klitzke, Principal of St Victor school to be used for student needs.
Rest in peace Ann….your legacy lives on.❤️

The Monroe Noon Optimist’s lost a treasured and very special member this past spring, and she was far too young. The late Ann Wells enjoyed working and serving the youth of our county. Because of her dedication to youth and love of Optimists, her brother John, and wife Diane, donated a generous amount of money to be used to help the local youth. Several other donations were given at that time as well. Our board of directors chose to give this to the School District of Monroe to be used for children in need. The funds will go to the three public grade schools in Monroe and amounts needed will be determined by the school nurse. The remainder of the donation will be given next week to St. Victors School in Monroe for the same purpose.
Fly high Ann, your love of children is being taken care of.💕
