Town of Hadley reads proclamation honoring Revere Grant
Summary
The Town of Hadley read a proclamation on July 21 recognizing Revere Grant's birth (04/27/1912), civic service, and death (10/15/1996); Supervisor Moe Wright read the proclamation to the family and attendees.
Supervisor Moe Wright read a Town of Hadley proclamation honoring Revere Grant, citing his birth on 04/27/1912 in Fort Henry, New York, his marriage on 09/21/1947, his retirement from International Paper in 1977 after 27 years of service, and his service as town tax collector from 1978 to 1987. The proclamation explicitly noted that many official military service details were lost in a fire but said the town wanted his service remembered.
"Therefore, the town of Hadley recognizes the life of this man, the honor, respect, and gratitude assigned by me, supervisor Moore Wright," the proclamation read, listing the community roles Grant held and the town's commitment to remember him. The family was invited forward for a photograph with elected officials before an outdoor flag-raising.
