About The Honoree
Because of her generous spirit and passion for history, most folks are surprised to learn that Phyllis Monks wasn’t born and raised in Crete.
She moved here in 1978 and the town quickly became one of her passions. In addition to raising her family and establishing her legal practice here, Phyllis has been intricately involved with the Crete Area Historical Society, the Crete Woman’s Club, Crete Creative Gallery and School and the Crete Public Library District, to name just a few of the local organizations that have benefited from her time and efforts.
Phyllis has also been a driving force behind the establishment of a Crete Historical Museum, which has a home in the former Crete Congregational Church building. Phyllis also co-authored several books on the history of Crete, chairs the Village of Crete’s Heritage Commission and even represented the east side of the County on the Will County Board.
For over four decades Phyllis has been a strong community motivator for not only preserving the past but moving the Village of Crete forward. Her contributions are innumerable, as our the many grateful and admiring friends she has made here over the years.
