We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men. ~Herman Melville BOROUGH OF WELLSBORO, PA

May 2022

Borough Assistant Secretary Retires After 33 Years When Florence Bertsche Martino started her position in January of 1989, she never thought she would be there until her retirement 33 years later. 2022 seemed far away, but as they say time flies when you are having fun. She has enjoyed her time and the job was the answer to the prayers she silently repeated each night. She received her accounting degree after she was married and had a full time position. She often wondered if the expense and time were worth the effort and if she would find a position that would make it all worthwhile. That all changed with her position at the borough, she found a place where she not only loved to live but loved to work. She has worked with many great employees and supervisors during her time. It was a hard decision for her when it came time to retire. However, she feels it is time to spend time with her grown children, extended family, church family and friends who have provided constant encouragement and support. She feels it is time to return the sentiment and be there for them. She will always remember the good times

and looks forward to her future, no matter what it may hold. The Wellsboro Borough staff and council thank her for her years of service and wish her well on her retirement.
