A VERY SINCERE "THANK YOU"
TO THE SENTER FAMILY, BENEFACTORS
We are privileged to receive our first donation/ membership at the Benefactor
level!! Bradley Senter and his siblings, Barbara, Terry, and Kevin,
have given the WHS $5,000 in memory of their parents, Darold and Agnes
Senter. It is with considerable appreciation and gratitude that we
acknowledge this generous gift. The check was presented by Bradley Senter,
on behalf of his siblings, at the WHS Annual Meeting on Sept., 13, 2007.
Bradley shared several memories on this occasion.

Agnes and Darold Senter and their family lived in Worcester three times-
he was a road commissioner and selectman. (Cathy Hull put together a nice
display of Senter family photos and memorabilia in one of the display cases.)
There are no restrictions attached to this contribution. A portion of the
money will be used, along with other donations already received, to pay for
the new Worcester Historical Society sign which will be erected in front
of the Village School.
