The Stockbridge Township meeting went quickly - no real surprises there - business as usual by a board that clearly enjoys working together.
However.
At the close of the meeting, Supervisor Paul Risner took the time to thank everyone for coming and then thanked all the volunteers who have been contributing their time and talent to the Township and the Village.
He thanked the Board members for their hard work.
He thanked the Deputy Clerk, Deputy Treasurer and Deputy Supervisor for attending the meeting.
He thanked the Garden Club for the beautiful job on the flowers.
He thanked Jack Marshall for all that he does, including making the custom frame for the 175th Celebration photo of the Township hall.
He thanked Jean Bliss for all her hard work taking care of the Township Square, and commenting on how beautiful it always looks.
He thanked a few others and concluded with this thought:
"You know, this place is full of good people who volunteer and work hard and we've always been like that. That's one of the things that makes Stockbridge such a special place."
He's right.
Stockbridge is a special place because of the people its made up of.
And for everything Mr. Risner does for the Township and the Village - we'd like to thank him. He's one of those special people that make up this special place.
We're lucky to have him.
...and for all that you do Stockbridge Citizen Herald!
