Indiana Electric Cooperatives (IEC) named Casey Crabb the recipient of the 2024 Tom Taylor Award. Crabb, communications and public relations manager at Carroll White REMC, was presented the award during the Marketing, Member Services and Communicators professional section fall meeting Oct. 25.
“His heart for others, his admiration and respect for the legacy of all whom he has served throughout the years, and his dedication to everything he committed his time to, are among the characteristics that make him shine,” said Cathy Raderstorf, chief executive officer of Carroll White REMC.
One nominator said, “He is an ambassador for the cooperative spirit…in front of a crowd or in the quiet moments, he is the same person. He is totally genuine, and he cares. His positive attitude is admired and contagious.”
The award is presented annually to an Indiana electric cooperative member services employee who has demonstrated excellence in leadership, attitude and commitment to electric cooperative principles. The award is named for the award’s first recipient and longtime Boone REMC member services representative, C. Tom Taylor, who lived by the philosophy of “non sibi, sed aliis” – not for self, but for others.
