Eight ordinary people will be honored Tuesday night by the United Way of Miami-Dade County for their extraordinary work in public service.

For the past seven years, the United Way has recognized such public service with the

American Values Award - an honor given to public service employees who perform their professional duties with excellence and go above and beyond those duties to help their communities through volunteer service. This year's winners are Leslie Adams, Mary Brown, Diana Carmona, Annette Gibson, Jean-Robert Lafortune, Stacey McManus, Mary Paulk and Max Rodriguez. They will receive the award at a special ceremony at the Miracle Theatre in Coral Gables.
