The City of Knox recently said goodbye to its longtime park superintendent. George Byer retired last month after 12 years in the position.
Mayor Dennis Estok recognized Byer during a recent city council meeting. “He’s been a good superintendent,” Estok said. “He’s actually went above his means, as far as volunteering a lot of his time without pay. He just felt like he had to be there.”
His last day was June 17, according to the draft council meeting minutes.
