Tuesday, Dec. 17 will be “John Gallimore Day” in Davie County.
Gallimore is retiring after a 30-year career with the county, most recently as chief technology officer. County commissioners unanimously adopted a proclamation honoring Gallimore at their December meeting.
“You have excelled at keeping our county at the cutting edge of technology to better serve our citizens and staff,” said board chair, Mark Jones.
“You’ve always gone over and above your call to take care of everybody,” said board member, Benita Finney.
Board member Terry Renegar said that Gallimore brought Davie’s technology from the stone age to cutting edge.
Board member Brent Shoaf thanked Gallimore for being a good friend and confidant.
Gallimore spoke briefly, thanking co-workers, the board and his family. “And I want to express my gratitude to all of the citizens.”
