The Preston Citizenâs 2020 Ross/Bell Community Service (Citizen of the Year) Award w
as nominated by a whole class of people: West Side High Schoolâs Class of 2021. They and scores of people around the county have appreciated the friend they have, and the example set by Bill Salerno.
Like many others, he does much good in the community, but unlike many others, he does it all from a wheelchair.
Salerno doesnât just know how to make lemonade from lemons, he helps others do the same. Itâs that ability to raise others that has endeared him to so many as he worked in the Preston School District, Priestley Mental Health and now for the West Side School District.
