After more than 30 years of volunteering as Belleair's first and only Town Archivist, Kathy Gaston was honored on Tuesday as the Commission formally named our archive room in her honor.
The newly-named "Kathy Gaston Historic Archives" are home to hundreds of binders and thousands of records that date back to the late 1800's and all of which Kathy has single-handedly gathered and organized. Without her dedication, much of what we know about our town would have been lost forever many years ago. Thank you Kathy, for your service to our town - we are forever indebted.
As the new plaque outside the room states: "The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members."
