Mayor William R. Wild is all smiles during the Employee Appreciation Day Luncheon last week. The event was designed to thank each employee's commitment and dedication to Westland residents. Certificates were presented to every employee, and plaques were given to more than 35 dedicated staff members who have served the community for 20 years and more including Deputy Mayor Michael J. Reddy, above at right, and Director of Community Media Craig Welkenbach, above, at left of Wild.
