The Verona Community Association says a fond farewell to Wayne and Judy Conway. They are leaving Verona and they will be greatly missed. Their contribution as volunteers has been immense. Wayne was involved in many organizations in Verona in key positions such as past president of the Verona Lions Club and president of the Verona Community Association. For many years he was the general manager of the Verona Cattail Festival. Judy was by Wayne's side as an active member of ...the Lions Club and the VCA. No matter the size of the job, as volunteers Wayne and Judy were always there to help out. They were recently honoured by the South Frontenac Township Council "for their many years of dedicated service to South Frontenac and their commitment to the Verona Community." Judy and Wayne, we wish you all the very best in your future endeavours. See more
