KCRWC Honorees

Past President Mary Lou Blount with KCRWC Founder Mary Middleton

Past President Mary Lou Blount with KCRWC Founder Mary Middleton

It was with great sadness in November, 2011 that we shared the news of Mary Middleton’s passing. Among her many other accomplishments during her long and full life, Mrs. Middletown was the first Northern Kentucky Republican woman to run for office in 1959, as well as the founder and first president of the Kenton County Republican Women’s Club in 1960. The Cincinnati Enquirer has published a remembrance of her life.  Our annual scholarship has been renamed to reflect the gratitude that the KCRWC has for all that Mary Middleton did for our club.
