It's children and others who are exposed exposed to cigarette smoke who are getting sick more often and may' eventually die much earlier earlier than they otherwise would." Anita Witty has been very active in the Durham community community for 30 years and has chaired or assisted in numerous charitable events such as the Ajax/Pickering United Way, the Hospital Bed Campaign, and the Salvation Army Red Shield Appeal. Anita is a real estate broker owning her own firm since 1977, and has been president, twice, of the Durham Durham Region Real Estate Board.
