Mr. Luther was the Chairman of the Herkimer College Committee and in this capacity worked tirelessly, traveling throughout the County speaking on behalf of establishing the College. He continued to play a role in the early years of the development of the College as a member of the Board of Supervisors and later as a County Legislator.
