On March 25th, Estelle Stern-Eilers was awarded the Ben’s Bell Award for her recognition as a person who touches so many through her kindness. She got “belled!”
About 40 people showed up to surprise and support Estelle, including our Ward 3 Council Member Kevin Dahl. Liz Levine from Ben’s Bells, read the nomination from Howard Weiss citing Estelle as “the catalyst for improving and beautifying the RillitoBend neighborhood.” There was a chorus of clapping as she presented Estelle with the signature wind chimes, made of a ceramic flower, a small brass bell and several ceramic pieces. Estelle was so touched—and surprised—by the recognition. It was a joyous time for all.
