City Hall Flag at Half Mast for Doris George
The U.S. flag at Elkins City Hall will be at half mast Tuesday, August 3 in honor of Doris Gail George, who died Sunday at Davis Medical Center at the age of 75.
Ms. George served as an Elkins city councilor from April 1993 until March 2005. During her time in office, she was the long-serving chair of council’s Personnel Committee and the council representative on the Elkins Parks and Recreation Commission. She was also a small business owner here in town.
Current and past mayors, councilors, and city staff remember her as a helpful and effective colleague and mentor.
