On April 23, we lost a great member of our community—Dr. Kitty P. Smith. She passed away peacefully in her home, surrounded by family and close friends. Kitty was a long-time Fauquier resident, and worked tirelessly over the past several decades to support land conservation and good land use planning in Fauquier County.

Kitty was on the staff of PEC from 1988 – 2006, and served as a board member of Citizens for Fauquier County and Goose Creek Association. She also served on the County’s Agricultural and Forestal District Committee and Capital Improvements Committee, as well as participating in numerous other local organizations and initiatives after retiring.
