We asked for your nominations for the 2012 Glen Ellyn Person of the year and readers responded. We received the names of four residents our readers feel have made a difference in 2012.

Now, it is up to you the readers to choose the one you feel is most deserving of the title Person of the Year.

While, they are all deserving of praise, we have to ask you to choose just one. To make your choice you may vote in our poll or leave the person’s name in comments. No new names will be considered at this point. You may also leave a comment in support of your choice and we may use it in our story about the Person of the Year.

Be sure to share the story with your friends and ask others to vote for their choice in this year’s 2012 Glen Ellyn Person of the Year.
