The House concurrent resolution No. R-207 honors the life and contributions of Jon Gailmor, a beloved Vermont folk singer and former Town Moderator of Elmore. Known for his joyful melodies that celebrated Vermont's values and spirit, Gailmor chose to pursue a career in music focused on community engagement rather than commercial success. After relocating to Vermont in 1977, he dedicated himself to sharing his love of music with children through school residencies and his radio show, "Just Kidding," which aired from 1979 to the early 2000s. He also composed a song celebrating Vermont's citizen governance and served as Elmore's town moderator for over 15 years.

The resolution expresses heartfelt condolences to Gailmor's family and the residents of Elmore following his passing at the age of 77 on November 30, 2025. It acknowledges his significant impact on the community and his artistic legacy, which included a deep connection to the local culture and governance. The General Assembly has directed the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to Gailmor's family and the Elmore Town Clerk, ensuring that his memory and contributions are honored and remembered.
