Saying good-bye
After 24 years, Morris-Turnberry clerk-treasurer Qorothy
Kelly is bowing out of the municipal spotlight and into a quiet
retirement. A retirement party for Kelly will be held at the
Belmore Community Centre, July 14.
into retirement.
"I wouldn't be going if I didn't
have to," Kelly said in her Bluevale
office.
In 24 years, Kelly has made herself
known to just about everyone who
lives in the area. She knows just
about everybody for miles around,
especially the people of Turnberry,
where she was clerk-treasurer before
amalgamation.
Kelly looks back fondly on the
years spent as clerk-treasurer. Over
the years she's enjoyed working with
all the different councils. For most
of the time she worked along side the
longtime mayor of Turnberry, Brian
McBurney.
Kelly can recall the exact date she
started working for Turnberry in a
split second, April 4, 1977.
After growing up near Toronto,
Kelly worked for the Credit Valley
Conversation Area for years until she
and her husband, Ross, decided to
return to Morris, the place where he
grew up, to farm.
Kelly quickly found a job with
Turnberry as the clerk, and hasn't
looked back since.
Since she has started working in
the office she has seen a lot of
changes in the area. The area has
become more populated, more busi-
ness opportunities have sprung up,
meaning more residents building and
moving into Turnberry.
The municipality has faced the
possibility of a school closing, one
battle that will remain for the future.
The biggest change has been amal-
gamation. Everything had to be
restructured, new laws to encompass
the new municipality of Morris-
Turnberry had to be made. It was a
daunting task for Kelly at first.
"It's all working out really well
and has been really challenging,"
Kelly smiled.
Over time Kelly has seen a change
in people's attitude. People are ques-
tioning politics more now, Kelly
said.
She is a woman who is up for any
challenge. It is, the part of her job
that makes it exciting.
Going into work every day and not
knowing what is ahead of you makes
the job of clerk-treasurer exciting,
she Said.
Flexibility was required a few
years ago when the road superin-
tenant of Turnberry unexpectantly
died. For six months Kelly filled the
role.
"You do what you have to do with
the situation," Kelly said.
After Kelly retires this month, the
Bluevale office will be closed. Some
of her last duties are to pack up the
items in the Turnberry office and get
them ready to send them to the
Morris office. Without Kelly it
seems the Bluevale office is redun-
dant.
Everybody has told Kelly retire-
ment is wonderful. She is a little
leery.
"I don't know what I'm going to
do," Kelly said.
Kelly hopes to come back, if
some contract work with the munici-
pality comes along. That way she
can continue to do the job she
loves.

When residents of Morris-
Turnberry have a complaint they
phone the township office. On the
other end of the line is the voice of
reason.
In the Bluevale office, the phone
always seems to be ringing. The res-
idents are used to the woman on the
other end of the line. She is a woman
who lends a sympathetic ear, a
woman who know how to take com-
mand of the situation.
After 24 years as clerk-treasurer
Dorothy Kelly is retiring, but not by
choice. She has reached the age of a
senior citizen and is being forced
