My sympathies to the whole Dutton Family in the passing of one of the most loyal and hardworking 4-H volunteers I ever had the honor of working with. She is certainly a great friend of 4-H and all of the young people and parents she provided with a so many positive learning experiences. In addition to all the young people she taught projects that were exhibited at the Schuyler County Youth Fair she was also the person who made the food booth possible for so many years. I get pretty sad when I think about the fact that Youth Fair doesn't exist any longer. I have so many great memories of community, leadership and human interaction that happened via youth fair largely due to volunteers like Dolores. I also remember the fun we had at the youth fair food booth at the Watkins Glen International Race track serving the public while raising money to support the fair. It's been a long time but I remember a lot of it like it was yesterday. I could go on and on but this is probably too long already. As many know I am seldom at the loss for words.

I know Dolores is through the Pearly Gates organizing something right now !! My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time.
