Lynda Brannen Williamson was once again honored posthumously, this time as the 2015 Rotary Citizen of the Year by the two Statesboro Rotary clubs. This recognition, during a Monday luncheon at Forest Heights Country Club, comes just over two months after the Statesboro-Bulloch Chamber of Commerce named Williamson the 2014 Business Leader of the Year. Williamson died Nov. 2 after three years with peritoneal cancer.
