Glenn Marlatt
is Jefferson's representative. Although he lives between eight and 10 miles away in Talbot, he is seen most days riding through town, even in the rain. He stops at the community center, Papa's, Derek's Barber Shop, the library, fire station and by each school as part of his routine. Long-time residents know him, look for him and seem to know exactly where to find him when he isn't with them.
I caught up with him at Derek's and the community center this week. His warm smile greeted me and when he was all "spiffed up," he was ready for pictures.
If you visit Jefferson, watch for him. He pops out of a side street and surprises you when you least expect it.
Talbot resident, Glenn Marlatt, prepares for his daily bicycling junket around Jefferson keeping an eye on the town and visiting everyone he can along the way. He is "Mr. Jefferson"--a town "landmark."
Glenn's transportation is loaded, parked at the curb, and ready to go riding down Main Street.
