IN MEMORIAM
The death of Angelo Barbadoro, member of the Finance Committee for many years, and Monitor of Precinct 2 since the inception of our present form of government, brought to a close a life devoted to his family, and the best inter- ests of the Town of Milford, since he migrated from Italy in 1900. He was always keenly con- cerned with all the activities of the Town, giving generously of his time and energies on numerous occasions through many years.
In grateful acknowledgement of his loyalty and services, we, the members of the Committee, wish to spread on the Town records this expres- sion of appreciation in behalf of the townspeople.
As a mark of respect, we request the Town Clerk to send a copy of these Resolutions to the family.
