Ohio's Larry Webb honored with Jefferson Award

Mike Buettner reports that LHA member Larry Webb of Van Wert, Ohio, has been honored with a Jefferson Award for his many years of volunteer service. An article in The Lima News mentions his work with both the local historical society and the Lincoln Highway. The nomination was made by LHA members Art and Connie Weber, also of Van Wert.

Mike sent this photo from the dedication of the Ohio’s Lincoln Highway Historic Byway in April 2004: “The ribbon-cutting was in Van Wert, appropriately, because Larry and Kriss Salters (also with scissors) were the two people who did the most to make that happen, processing a lot of paperwork with ODOT to make the thing a reality.”

Congrats to Larry Webb for his dedication to the Lincoln Highway. No one deserves higher honors for their Lincoln efforts than Larry Webb. He has been an inspiration to Indiana and has assisted the Indiana LHA chapter in many ways. Thanks Larry!
