Marvin Perzee County Fair Day

The Illinois House of Representatives (Thursday) recognized former Iroquois County Fair Board President Marvin Perzee.  The House passed a resolution (HR66) designating May 20, 2021 as "Marvin Perzee County Fair Day."   Representative Tom Bennett sponsored the resolution adopted earlier in the month.  Bennett told House members Perzee, who died in July 2019, was a longtime supporter of the Illinois county fair scene.  He was a veteran supporter of the Ashkum Chargers 4-H Club for five decades.  He and his wife, Sharon, had been long-time advocates for farmers and the Illinois county fair circuit.
