Flags at Half Mast
Flags at all municipal properties in the Municipality of Cumberland have been lowered to half-mast in memory of John Henwood of Parrsboro. Henwood joined the Public Works Department in Parrsboro in the mid-1970s and became superintendent of Public Works before his retirement in 2016. He also served for 51 years as a member of the Parrsboro Fire Department. Please join Mayor Rod Gilroy, council and staff of the Municipality of Cumberland in extending our sympathies to the family of the late John Henwood.
