Appomattox council issues condolences for Sandra Landry, plans proclamations and adjourns
Summary
Council members paid tribute to longtime Cornerstone volunteer Sandra Landry and discussed framed proclamations to honor community members and 911 dispatchers; the meeting adjourned by unanimous voice vote.
Council member McKinley placed condolences for Sandra Landry on the public record, recounting her years of service at Cornerstone Christian Academy and reading lines from a hymn: "Make me a servant, humble and meek. Lord, let me lift up those who are weak." McKinley said Landry served many children through summer programs and other community activities.
Councilor Boyse responded, "I concur with McKinley," and noted that Landry had engaged many children through homeschool cooperatives and community programs. Another councilor recalled Cornerstones annual music camp and described Landry as a "shining star" for the town.
Separately, a councilor proposed recognizing National Telecommunications Appreciation Week and honoring 911 dispatchers; the Town Manager offered to draft proclamations, work with staff and secure framing so the proclamations would be displayed in town facilities.
A motion to adjourn was made, seconded and approved by voice vote. The chair called for ayes, and the motion carried; the meeting was declared adjourned by unanimous consent.
No formal votes on proclamations or other substantive policy actions were recorded in the transcript.
