Remembering Bob Turner
In January, 2023 our good friend and Trustee, Bob Turner was called home to Heaven. Bob and Bonnie Turner proposed the idea of a Festival of Trees, and worked very hard to make it the successful event that it is today. We know that Bob’s spirit will live on in the bright, excited eyes of everyone who enters the Festival each year. His many contributions to Windham Hill UCC, our church family, his Masonic and Shriner memberships and his devotion to family leave a legacy that will keep him close in our hearts.
Save the date! Festival of Trees is always the first weekend in December! December 4- December 6, 2026 Times TBD
