City Water Superintendent Gary Pilon received warm congratulations from a full house at the Italian American Club as he retired after a 42 year career at City Hall.
Mr. Pilon came on board in 1968 and served two stints as City Engineer in addition to being the City Water Czar.
In his years, he became a widely respected employee as well as active community member. He was particularly active in the Miss Thousand Islands Pageant.
Mr. Pilon will continue to help out at City Hall in coming weeks, but also hopes to travel and enjoy time off.
He has been a credit to the City and deserves a kind word from us all on his retirement.

If he worked for me I would offer to double his salary if he agreed to stay on a few more years.
Pilon is a good guy. Best wishes to him.
Gary is a stellar city department head - now if we can get others - like Hayes or Mills to model him.
It's a pleasure to work for him.
Do not attack Jim Mills. He is a good man with a hard job. He is one of the strongest assets the City of Watertown has.
I don't think we're still paying him to watch over the airport like we are Gene Hayes, are we?
