RESOLUTION, No. II -. 'I
WHEREAS Howard J. Wilson served for six years as trustee on
the Village Board of Mount Prospect, and his faithful service
is known to several members of the present board and the
village president;
AND WHEREAS Howard J. Wilson went beyond the normal call of
duty in espousing those things which he deemed necessary for
Mount Prospect's well being -- such as installation of side-
walks universally throughout the village, construction of an
adequate drainage system in co-operation with the Metropolitan
sanitary District, and the preservation of stately trees from
the ravages of Dutch Elm disease;
AND WHEREAS Howard J. Wilson often labored beyond his physical
strength in an effort to accomplish what he deemed right in
principle;
AND WHEREAS his former colleagues on the board feel a deep
sorrow, as must the residents of this village, in his
untimely passing at the age of 45;
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this resolution of sympathy and
recital of his accomplishments be spread on the minutes of
this meeting and a copy of the resolution be forwarded to
his widow. Ruth Wilson.
