In the photo are: Denise Trentalange's PEO Chapter EC members, Chris McCool, Lynn King, Marty Faith and Jan Platt. Rightmost is MHM President Franci Bolen. IT’S LIKE COMING HOME!
For 17 years, Denise Trentalange (pictured on the left) served as board member, collections manager and archivist at the Monrovia Historical Museum.
Collection Management is an arduous process that requires meticulous steps, from researching to documenting and cataloging of data, not to mention special handling of vintage, fragile artifacts. During her time with the Museum, Denise processed over 12,000 artifacts. Her unsurpassed knowledge and dedication led to the naming of the second-floor office and library at the Museum, the Trentalange Research Center, an honor so befitting of her major contributions.
In April, Denise revisited the Museum, along with her friends from her PEO* Chapter EC group. Museum Board President, Franci Bolen was on hand (pictured on the right) to give them a private, VIP tour! The photo was taken in our vintage telephone exhibit, where the ladies had the most fun, sharing memories of the good old days of landline telephone communications!
*PEO, Philanthropic Educational Organization is a Sisterhood of purposeful and passionate women celebrating, supporting and motivating women around the world to advance through education, including scholarships, loans and grants. They also support Cottey College, a four-year liberal arts women's college in Nevada, Missouri. Please contact us if you would like to know more about PEO.
