My wife Beth and I have lived in many towns and different states in our lives. One factor common to the different locations is that each community had people who stepped forward and went above and beyond. We in Suffield have many past examples of such people: Lester Smith, Sam Fuller and Janet Banks to name a few. Recently I met with Bill Hawkins, Suffield Director of Planning and Development. Though not a resident he works tirelessly to better our community.
