Leading, inspiring and changing lives
The 2021 Women of Distinction are inspirational leaders whose vision, dedication and compassion improve our community. We will introduce each honoree before our virtual event July 15.

DeAnne Blazek, DDS
Dentist
Community Smiles Dental
Retired Owner, Private Practice

When people think of DeAnne, they naturally smile. Maybe that’s because she has dedicated her personal and professional life to making others smile. For more than 40 years, DeAnne combined her skills with her compassion for her dental patients. What resulted was a successful business and a dedication to helping others.
Those who work closely with DeAnne appreciate what they call “her inclusive style,” her ability to “fuel the passion of those around her” and her dedication to “model integrity in everything she does.” One supporter said: “… she truly personifies the spirit of a servant leader …”

To hear more of DeAnne's incredible journey in her own words, register below to attend the Women of Distinction virtual event.
