Gertrude (Judy) Rowe, Sand Lake Town Historian, is a good friend of SAR and the Saratoga Battle Chapter. She provided much assistance and advice to Dennis Marr during his tenure as chapter Registrar. Over the years, Judy has referred over 100 new members to SAR in numerous states.

In recognition of her long and dedicated assistance to the SAR and Saratoga Battle Chapter, Judy was previously awarded the SAR Medal of Appreciation and the SAR Daughters of Liberty Medal, the highest SAR award for ladies.

During Judy's hospitalization this past summer, her home was burglarized. Taken, in addition to irreplaceable family heirloom jewelry, was all of Judy's DAR insignia; taken also were the two medals that we had presented to her. Dennis Marr suggested that the chapter offer to replace these medals for her, and the officers unanimously concurred.

At the Christmas Party for Judy's Fort Crailo Chapter of the DAR on 10 December 2005, Dennis Marr had the honor of presenting Judy with her replacement medals. She was very moved, and truly appreciated the gesture. The officers of her chapter expressed their heartfelt thanks to Saratoga Battle for its thoughtfulness.
