AUBURN — Two longtime members of the CM Education Foundation board of directors were honored recently for their distinguished service on the board. The directors voted unanimously to grant them member-emeritus status.

Richard Roy served on the board for almost 20 years and is a former chairman. He is executive vice president and chief banking officer at Mechanics Savings Bank.

Ed Cormier, also a former board chairman, served on the board for over 15 years. He is retired from Harriman Architects and Engineers, where he served as president from 1991 to 2008.

The foundation is a community-based, nonprofit corporation that has as its sole mission “support for Central Maine Community College and its students.” The foundation is governed by a volunteer board of directors comprised of community and business leaders. It has raised and contributed almost $1 million to the college for scholarships, program improvements and capital projects.
