Margie Award to be presented

The Margie Award was established in memory of Margie Holodnak Davis by her family. She was a victim of domestic violence who was killed age of 26 by her estranged husband June 9, 1980.

The award, established in 2006 to mark the 26th anniversary of her death, is presented to an individual who defines her character, love of life, family and community. The recipient of this award must be actively involved with the Women's Resource Center.

This year's award will be presented to the recipient at a Woman's Resource Center event Sept. 20.
