Firefighter Dusty Katich was named the Paul Miller award winner for December. Collinsville Progress honored Katich for going beyond the call of duty after giving a fire station to a 4-year-old boy who is blind.
Paul Miller was a co-founder of Miller & Maack General Contractors in Collinsville. Miller was an active member of the community and believed that an efficient, knowledgeable and friendly staff were an integral part of any business.
