3 <br /> e <br /> I <br /> f <br /> MR. and MRS. LEO C. HOUSTON <br /> DEDICATION <br /> Since making Mash-pee their permanent home, Gracie <br /> and Leo have given dedicated service to all. <br /> Gracie became the Town's first secretary to the Select- <br /> men, serving twelve years and several selectmen. At first, <br /> the position only required a few hours a week, but gradually <br /> this transcended to an all consuming full-time job. During <br /> this transition the title of Administrative Assistant to the <br /> Board of Selectmen was created and held by Gracie until <br /> November of 1973. Never did Gracie refuse a call from any- <br /> one for help. Her services were never ending. <br /> Leo served as a member of the Board of Appeals, Planning <br /> Board and the Municipal Needs Committee when they were <br /> first created. He enjoyed his appointments as Harbormaster, <br /> later as Assistant Harbormaster; Shellfish Constable, then <br /> Deputy Shellfish Constable in the area of Popponesset Bay <br /> near their home. Last, but not least, he was a member of <br /> the School Committee, a post he held for nineteen years. <br /> Retirement is enjoyed by both Grace and Leo with <br /> their family on Mashpee Neck Road. They are leaving us <br /> With a firmer foundation from which our Town will grow in <br /> strength. <br />
