We mourn the sudden passing of Bill Hescock. His death is a great loss to the community of North Stonington.
FROM THE FAMILY: The community memorial service for William Henry Hescock will be held at the Wheeler Library on Friday, the 8th of January. All are welcome between 4:00 PM and 6:00 PM. Remarks and remembrances of Bill will begin at 4:45 PM.
Contributions to a written collection of personal memories and stories of
Bill would be greatly appreciated.
In lieu of flowers, everyone is encouraged to make a donation to Wheeler
Library in Bill’s memory. O.U.R. Library (Our Unique Resource) is a fundraising
campaign recently envisioned and named by Bill, and is a testament to his
love for Wheeler Library, and the important role it plays in the community
of North Stonington.
Wheeler Library came to be out of love for family and community, and an absolute belief that those who have received have a duty to give back. The Library stands as a proud pillar of past generosities and love of North Stonington, and is as relevant and full of life as when it opened over 100 years ago.— William H. Hescock, December 28, 2009
