  About Candyce Ewing Abbatt
  ...
  Why is Candyce Ewing Abbatt so actively involved in numerous civic, charitable and professional pursuits?
  
  "I suppose it's a sense of responsibility I inherited from my parents who always have led by example," says Candyce.
  
  "If either viewed a program worthwhile and beneficial, they felt it a duty to volunteer time and energy to help make it or keep it successful."
  
  Thus, her upbringing helps to explain why Candyce contributes so much of her talent and effort to helping maintain a quality library service during a time when budget sacrifices are the norm in city government.
  
  A CITY COMMISSIONER
  
  It all began in the mid 1990's when then City Librarian Pat Coady began recruiting Candyce for membership on the Dearborn Public Library Commission.
  ...
  With layoffs pending, discussions on closing the Bryant Branch Library heating up and other facilities needing upgrades, Candyce accepted the challenge.
  ...
  Candyce's commission role certainly was not limited to her work in creating the Foundation.
  
  She served as chairperson in 2001-03 and is extremely proud of the commission's role in keeping the Bryant Branch Library open through an innovative use of volunteers.
  
  Commission input also was invaluable in planning a major renovation of the Esper Branch Library.And, Candyce served on the new Director Search Committee in 2006 after Coady retired.
  ...
  Professionally, Abbatt is in her second year as a State Bar of Michigan Foundation Fellow.And her ties to Wayne State remain strong, as evidenced by her membership on the Board of Visitors since 2004.
