Mayor recovering after emergency surgery
XENIA - Outgoing Mayor Phyllis Pennewitt is recovering after undergoing emergency intestinal surgery Saturday, Dec. 19, at Greene Memorial Hospital.
Councilwoman Pat Felton said she spoke to a family member Saturday who said Pennewitt came through the surgery and is on the mend.
Pennewitt became mayor in 2006 after serving six years as a councilwoman. She announced earlier this year she would not seek re-election and supported retired Xenia schools principal Marsha Bayless, who won the election in November to replace her.
Bayless and newly elected Councilman Wesley E. Smith will be sworn in at council’s first meeting in January.
