Leigh’s community activities currently center around her children’s activities and is an active member of the Prospect Democratic Town Committee. |
John and his wife moved to Prospect to be closer to his grandchildren. Pre-Prospect, John worked in technology and software for 49 years. He wrote software before most of us had a home computer. He worked for IBM for 20 years, bringing IBM’s speech recognition to its first customer.
Since moving here, John has helped with re-purposing Community School to the Prospect Community Center. He is also an active member of the Regency community, starting many committees and writing a newsletter for his neighbors. John is running for Zoning Board of Appeals to give back to Prospect. |
