A important man to the town died on October 16. He donated the town pool, the community center, donated large amounts of money for the senior center, donated funds to build the Lebanon Historical Society and money towards the developement of the town parking lot next to community center. Additionally he purchased, renovated, and donated the Jonathan Trumbull, Jr home to the town. He gave much to this community and we owe him much for the things that he gave.
