Craig and Deb Ragaller served as dedicated leaders of the Westside 4-H Club for eighteen
years, positively influencing the lives of countless youth and families throughout the community.
Their commitment to 4-H has been driven by a shared passion for education, leadership, and
service, making them outstanding role models for generations of members.
Craig has spent many years serving as an educator, dedicating his career to helping students
achieve their full potential. Throughout his teaching career, he has coached numerous athletic
teams, sponsored the National Honor Society (NHS), and supported a variety of school
activities and organizations. His leadership in both the classroom and extracurricular programs
has helped students develop confidence, character, and a strong work ethic. These same
qualities have made him a respected and effective leader within 4-H.
Deb has been equally committed to serving her community. In addition to her leadership role
with Westside 4-H, she is an active member of the Westside Fortnightly Club, where she
contributes her time and talents to projects that benefit the local community. Her dedication to
service, organization, and mentorship has been an invaluable asset to both the club and its
members.
Together, Craig and Deb have devoted countless hours to planning meetings, mentoring youth,
organizing activities, supporting county fair projects, and encouraging members to become
active and responsible citizens. Their leadership has created a welcoming environment where
young people are encouraged to learn, grow, and succeed.
The impact of Craig and Deb's eighteen years of service extends far beyond the 4-H program.
Through their dedication, integrity, and commitment to youth development, they have helped
shape future leaders and strengthen the Westside community. Their legacy of service and
leadership will continue to inspire 4-H members for years to come.
