Our own Bob Booth was recognized with a proclamation from the City Council yesterday for his longstanding service to our community. A small group of his friends gathered as City Councilman Pete Desaulniers, former Councilman and current State Representative, Chris Coutu and former Mayor Art Lathrop made the presentation. With Marge and Stephanie by his side, Art Lathrop read the proclamation citing Bob's service to his country in the Army, his years of teaching at Norwich Technical School, his service on the City Council, the Board of Education and on various committees and Board within the city, his service to his church and ministry in the prisons and his faithfulness in all things. Chris Coutu presented the plaque to Bob and all of his friends gathered around him. Even the Administrator of Haven Health and several employees looked on and wished him well.Bob is another example of someone who has what we are calling a "missional church faith." He carried his faith with him into the world and it informs everything he does. Congratulations Bob and Marge!
