AI Summary

This resolution mourns the death of Theodore Holt Chase, a distinguished citizen from Lewisboro, New York, who passed away on June 17, 2025, at the age of 93. A Yale University graduate and U.S. Army veteran, Chase was deeply involved in his community, serving four terms on the Town Board as Deputy Supervisor and as Fire Commissioner for the Goldens Bridge Fire Department. After retiring from IBM, he continued his civic engagement and was named Lewisboro's Citizen of the Year in 1996.

The resolution will be transmitted to his family as a formal acknowledgment of his life and service.
