During the February 20th meeting of the Elk Lake School Board, several people were in attendance. Many were apparently there for an event which occurred early in the meeting. Dr. Bush spoke up, saying that they were going to move to a very proud moment. Dr. Cuomo was going to present a diploma to Mr. Leon Everett Williams, who had waited a long time for that moment. Dr. Cuomo spoke prior to conferring the diploma, stating that they had an opportunity to acknowledge Mr. Williams for his military service to the country. He explained that in 1942 Mr. Williams would have graduated high school, but instead he left school and entered into the military. He served in World War 2, and never had an opportunity to go back and finish school. Dr. Coumo then continued, saying it was their privilege and honor to provide him with a high school diploma. As he handed the diploma to Mr. Williams, applause resounded in the library, with many standing in Mr. Williams' honor.
