This award acknowledges those who have made a difference and set examples in their careers and lives. They are recognizing those who are still contributing to our community's well-being both now and in the past.
As one of the founding members of the Cedar Valley Kiwanis Rough Risers in 1981, Dr. Heller has demonstrated his commitment to service through his leadership within our club. He has played a pivotal role in coordinating numerous construction projects that have significantly enhanced our community. From the construction of eight shelters at the Cedar Valley Soccer Complex to the impressive 40-foot shelter at the back of the YMCA, Dr.Heller's vision and tireless efforts have left a lasting legacy that will benefit generations to come.
Dr.Heller's impact extends beyond the realm of community service and into the field of education. As a professor of elementary education at the University of Northern Iowa, he has greatly influenced the lives of hundreds of future teachers. His passion for education and unwavering dedication to his students has helped shape the minds and hearts of countless individuals, leaving an indelible mark on the future of education in our community and beyond.
