On September 17, 2024, Lapp Insulators LeRoy honored one of our longest-term employees, Kathy Chatt, Shipping and Receiving Supervisor.

Kathy has been a loyal, dedicated, and hard-working employee for 50 years!

Kathy, a LeRoy native, began at Lapp following high school where she worked in accounting. The company was much different then with approximately 1,000 employees and its own trucking fleet.

After accounting, she moved to Inventory Control as a keypunch operator completing data entry for the factory.  About 15 years ago, Kathy moved to her current, favorite job in the Traffic department. She expertly manages a team of four coworkers and coordinates all deliveries and shipments utilizing approximately 30 different carriers.

Throughout her 50 years at Lapp, Kathy has witnessed the best and most challenging times in the company’s history.  Through it all, she has found great rewards in working with her colleagues.

We are grateful for her dedication and contribution over the past five decades and are happy to celebrate this major career milestone with her.
