Diane Bruce last day Friday - February 26, 2010 - Retires March 1, 2010
Friday, February 26th we say farewell to a fellow clerk and friend.
The Rappahanock News reported as follows:
Farewell to Diane Bruce
At the start of the
meeting, the board (Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors) passed a
resolution thanking Diane Bruce for her work as Circuit Court clerk -
and clerk to the board - since August 1977. The resolution cited Bruce's
"able and indefatigable" work as both court and county clerk, as well as
serving as what Welch said "was sometimes like a sixth member of the
board."
"It's been the ride of a lifetime," said Bruce, who plans
after retiring March 1 to, among other pursuits, ride a motorcycle
across the country. Among the gifts the board handed her Monday was a
guidebook specifically designed to make that easier.
The board
later confirmed Assistant Circuit Court Clerk Peggy Ralph's appointment
to Bruce's position effective on Bruce's retirement, and took the
actions necessary to add the Circuit Court Clerk position to the ballot
for November's regular election, at which time Bruce's successor would
be elected to fill the remaining term - through Dec. 31, 2015.
We say farewell but not goodbye. May your ink well never run dry
and your quill remain sharp.
