BRISTOL — An indoor yard sale this Saturday will benefit a Bristol foundation set up in honor of a Bristol native who was killed in a July 2015 car crash. Proceeds from the Feb. 16 yard sale at Middlebury’s American Legion at 49 Wilson Road from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., will go to the Brendon P. Cousino Med47 Foundation. The fund awards scholarships to local tech students entering trades and to small-town first-response agencies.
Cousino attended the Patricia A. Hannaford Career Center, where he developed a passion for carpentry, and was a 2002 Mount Abe graduate. He was a member of the Richmond Rescue Squad at the time of his death, and had served on the Starksboro Rescue Squad before that.
Donations are being accepted. Cindy Cousino may be reached at 233-8334 for information.
