2-12-13 Candy Pittro Award
The Annual Candy Pittro Memorial Award recognizes Lee County employees, who while faced with adversity, maintain a positive attitude toward their job and life in general and their ability to inspire others. Candy Pittro was a vivacious, inspiring employee of the Human Resources Department who passed away in 1987 after a long struggle with leukemia. Candy always displayed a tremendously positive outlook towards life and her cheerful disposition was infectious to those whom she came in contact. The Candy Pittro award was established as a memorial and a tribute to her positive outlook on life.
