ALTAMONT — Thelma I. Elgie, longtime resident of Altamont, died peacefully on Thursday, May 30, in Albany with her loving family by her side. She was 102.

Born in 1922, she was the daughter of the late George and Hattie Spawn Gade. She was the beloved wife of the late Augustus “Jim” Elgie Jr. who died in 1956.

During a May 7 meeting Altamont Mayor Kerry Dineen said, “We got four letters about this subject because … in one area where I thought the leash law was a leash law — personally, I always thought that — we actually don’t have it, a  leash is not necessarily required on dogs outside of private property.”
