Mayor Mike Gipson has been recognizing “Good Neighbors” over the past few months and plans a big announcement on further honoring those whom he’s named. Ann Wisley Blythe, a lifelong resident, is the most recent to receive this honor.
Blythe is a cornerstone in the community and has volunteered much of her time helping the city as a member of the Chamber of Commerce. Additionally, she has served on the board of the Poteau River Conservation District for 14 years. She has worked in the grocery business for 44 years and currently works for CV’s Family Foods.
She and her husband, Farris, have been married 62 years. The couple have two children, Cindy Blythe Black and the late Mike Blythe. Also, two granddaughters and two great-grandchildren. They stay busy following the sports of one of their great-grandchildren and are active members of Abbott Baptist Church.
Gipson noted that “Ann has always done so much for our town, she is truly a good neighbor!” Congratulations to her on being recognized by the mayor on this special honor.
