title of County  Clerk  in  2018,  the  position  from  which  she  will
officially retire at the end of the year; and

  WHEREAS,  In  her capacity as County Clerk, Linda Kollar served with
loyalty, honor and distinction; throughout her tenure, she  managed  not
only  the  County Clerk's office, but also, the County Records Room, and

volunteer her entire life; and

  WHEREAS,  With  her throughout has been her husband James, who feels
privileged to be a part of her life and rejoices  in  her  achievements;
and

  WHEREAS,  It  is  the  sense of this Legislative Body that those who
enhance the quality of life in their community and have shown a long and

sustained commitment to the  maintenance  of  high  standards  in  their
profession,  certainly  have  earned the recognition and applause of all
the citizens of this great Empire State; now, therefore, be it
