Ruth Kneebone

Tim McCURDY (Ovens Valley) (09:42): Ruth Kneebone was awarded the Citizen of the Year earlier this year, and she said it was the thought of having her handprint on Marmungun Rock that would make it feel real. This occurred last Sunday, which was another fine example of the coming together of a community. The late Uncle Wally Cooper started this journey, and the Wangaratta community are stronger for this important celebration. Congratulations, Ruth. You are now carved in stone.
