COOPERSTOWN
A hundred friends and wellwishers gathered at Templeton Hall Saturday evening, April 10, to honor Mayor Carol B. Waller on her retirement.
State Sen. Jim Seward, R-Milford, read proclamations from the state Senate and the General Assembly.
Speakers included Village Clerk Teri Barown, who thanked the four-term mayor for her support.
“This, for me, has been a dream job,” said Barown.
Police Chief Diana Nicols also spoke.
With the recent election, Waller ended 16 years in village office, eight as a trustee and eight as mayor.
She was mayor during tumultuous 2007, when the village celebrated its bicentennial, and also hosted 84,000 baseball fans at the inductions of Cal Ripken and Tony Gwynn into the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
