☼ It is with deep sadness that Chamber Board Trustee, Tim Nyhuis, passed away on 11-20-2010. Our Board was so pleased to have Pastor Tim represent the Hartford Federated Church as a Chamber member.  He enjoyed working on the Strawberry Festival planning committee, greeting Strawberry Runners with a cold bottle of water, helping to organize the Strawberry Festival Horseshoe Tournament, as well as ensuring that there was a Kiddie's Parade and Strawberry Parade float for the Federated Church.  Pastor Tim realized the importance of not only having a church in Hartford, but being part of and ministering to our community - especially to our Hartford youth as Youth Pastor in the earlier years of his ministry.
