I wanted to write and publically convey my sincere appreciation to outgoing Catoctin Supervisor Sally Kurtz.  Not only has she tirelessly represented the Catoctin District for the past twelve years, but Sally and her staff assistant Naomi Lithgow-Foidl have been extremely helpful with the transition of myself and my staff aid Callie Chaplow into the Catoctin Supervisor’s office.

Since the election they have kept us informed of relevant meetings and issues that were going on within the district. Additionally, they spent at least six hours of their time, in two separate meetings, walking us through every single item of unfinished business pending in the Catoctin District. They have also offered to assist us if we have questions in the future. I am not personally aware of any other incoming Supervisor getting this kind help and cooperation from their predecessor.

Accordingly, I want to publically thank Sally and Naomi for their service to the citizens of Loudoun County, their gracious help in getting us acclimated to the new position and to wish them the very best in the future.
