At the end of every year, there always seems to be a lot of talk about persons of the year, athletes of the year, politicians of the year, even turkeys of the year.

Just recently, the National Baseball Hall of Fame released its 2007 inductees (Tony Gwynn and Cal Ripken), and it got me wondering if Litchfield had a Hall of Fame, who would you include in its gloried halls?

Would you cast your vote for someone famous, perhaps a star athlete or politician who put Litchfield on the map? Or would you vote for the neighbor down the street who has lived her whole life here helping others?

As a non-Litchfield native, I'm curious who you think is most deserving of a place in a Litchfield Hall of Fame.
