 WHEREAS, A graduate of Camden and Herkimer Community Colleges, Katie
Stone holds stake in the Camden community as the owner of Furbush Agency

reverence; and

 WHEREAS, In her leisure, Katie Stone enjoys playing golf and
snowmobiling, as well as spending time with her loving family; and

the important Irish roots and influences which have shaped music for
centuries; and

 WHEREAS, Through this heartfelt and compassionate expression, as
well as through their sustained commitment to the cultural vitality of
their Irish heritage, the Irish American people of the Camden area and
