The woman who spearheaded the movement to bring 911 service to Butler County has died.
Anabel Brunermer passed away at the Sunnyview Nursing Center Monday.
Brunermer was serving as president of the Intermediate League of Butler in 1969 when she read a Reader’s Digest story about a new emergency communication system being developed across the country.
She approached the city mayor about the idea and it eventually evolved into a one console, one tape recorder system at the city’s police station.
Brunermer was also heavily involved in many non-profit organizations in Butler and was active in the General Federation Women’s Club for 65 years.
Brunermer was 95.
