Which brings me back to Zoom meetings, specif- ically one I had last Friday which struck me as particularly evocative of how I feel about our league and our localities. Let me explain… Every Friday afternoon, the Execu- tive Directors of the municipal leagues across the nation and the National League of Cities hold a Zoom call to discuss the news, share personal accomplishments (and hardships) and offer encouragement to each other. On last Friday’s call, we heard from Michael Darcy, the Executive Director of the New Jersey State League of Municipalities, who is retiring after 30-plus years with the league. Mr. Darcy was introduced with many accolades and some of those on the call read excerpts from the New Jersey league’s magazine interview with him. His words were powerful, and they struck a chord with me because they perfectly captured how I feel about all of you who serve Virginia’s localities. So, with permission from Michael So, while I had to “steal” from Yogi Berra and the outgoing and the New Jersey league, I would like to use his words to let director of the New Jersey municipal league, what I am saying you know what I would say to each of you if we were all sitting is: I respect and appreciate all of you!
