I had the privilege of honoring my friend, Sylvan B. Fisher, for his over 40 years of service with West Earl Township by presenting him with a House citation. The township also honored him by dedicating one of its local parks in his name. Sylvan began his tenure with West Earl Township as a member of the road crew in March 1978. He was appointed as roadmaster in January 1979, a position he held until 2007. He returned to the position in early 2015 as acting roadmaster, the position from which he is retiring. Sylvan was elected to the board of supervisors in 1980 and served in that position for 29 years. He further serves the community as a member of the West Earl Fire Company, and his commitment to his local community work ethic has earned the respect and gratitude of all who benefited from his tireless devotion to duty. I wish Sylvan all the best in his retirement.
