Please join us in congratulating Leilani Merkle. She is the Auto Express KIA and JET/FOX/YourErie “Good Kid of the Week” Leilani is a 12th grader at Fort LeBoeuf High School. She is an honor student and spends her time volunteering at her church. She recently helped out a co-worker who had a surgery and was going through a difficult time. Here is the nomination letter: “After 3 years of volunteering in the St. Teresa Religious Education Office assisting me, she has become God-sent. I had 3 surgeries in 4 months. She cheered me up, did housework and took me out to shop. She is always willing to help anyone. She is in the top of her class and in National Honor Society for which she also does service hours. She just made her Confirmation and I was proudly her sponsor. She has just been accepted to Emory University in Arizona. I will miss her very much!” To nominate a Good Kid go to yourerie.com.
