Description

KANE COUNTY, IL — Illinois recently surpassed another devastating milestone with more than 17,000 residents dead from COVID-19 across the state. In Kane County, more than 600 people have lost their battle with the virus. Every death meant more than a statistic. A child lost his mother; a mother lost her child and maybe her own mother, too. A community lost a teacher, a mentor, a student, a coach. The front line lost a nurse, a doctor, an EMT, a hospital orderly. We all lost some of our heroes.
