Ruth Strickhart, Our 2014 Pittsfield Citizen Of The Year

Pittsfield RuthSTrickhard2.jpg

Congratulations to Ruth Strickhart on being named the

2014 Pittsfield Citizen of the Year.  

 

Ruth has been an active volunteer in our town for many years.  She has volunteered at the front desk at the Josiah Carpenter Library until her “retirement” on March 7, 2013 – 2 days after her 93rd birthday.  Ruth spends one morning each week at the Historical Society doing data entry or other special projects.  She also can be found at the Pittsfield Food Pantry where she has served as the manager and treasurer.  She has overseen the volunteers there and does much of the paperwork that is required to keep the pantry running smoothly, including the personal and prompt thank you notes for the donations.  Ruth is also active in her church.  She was instrumental in implementing the Pennies From Heaven mission project which is still maintained at the First Congregational Church. It has helped several groups in town. The present goal is to collect $250 each for the Beacon of Light Ministry in Pittsfield and the Pittsfield Beautification Committee. She has been known to quietly behind the scenes support those going through some tough times.  These are just a few of the things that we know Ruth has done!

 

Ruth was selected in May, 2011 to receive the Joseph D. Vaughan Award, which is presented annually by the State Committee on Aging and EngAGING NH for outstanding leadership and achievement as a volunteer on behalf of older citizens in NH.  Ruth was also recognized at the 2013 Pittsfield Community Impact Awards, sponsored by Pittsfield Listens, as the Outstanding Individual of the Year.

 

We, the citizens of Pittsfield, are lucky to have such a dedicated and giving person in our community.  THANK YOU, Ruth Strickhart, for all you do!
