Longtime Malden City Employee Betty Christie Retires

MALDEN, MA — Longtime city employee Elizabeth "Betty" Christie has retired after 48 years.

Christie joined the treasurer's office in 1973 after learning about the opening from a neighbor. She has the unique distinction of being the only employee to have worked in all four City Hall buildings, including the temporary location at 110 Pleasant Street.

"Betty will always be known for the way she cheerfully welcomed and assisted residents to the treasurer's window, and how she dedicated her career to providing quality customer service to Malden residents," according to a statement on the city's website.

Mayor Gary Christenson presented Christie with a plaque that depicts all four City Hall locations and thanked her for her service, commitment and contributions to Malden.
