Excerpt:
Neenah woman who loved to read, garden and follow the career of Tiger Woods left a $150,000 bequest for the Neenah Public Library.

Library Director Stephen Proces said Tuesday that the donation from the Agnes M. Praiss estate was an unexpected but welcome gift.

"We are thrilled, of course," Proces said. "It was a total surprise. As far as we know, the lady was not a regular library user."

Proces said the money came without restrictions and was placed in the library's general trust fund. In recent years, the library board has used the trust fund to buy automation equipment like self-checkout machines.
