On October 5, 1993 the Town Manager, and former Chief of Police, Donald DeSantis, invited the Town Council to the rededication of the Searles Building as the Seat of Government in Methuen, which occurred on October 17. In looking over some old documents I have found that original invite, which is posted below. Donald DeSantis was a very important person in the history of Methuen, serving as both Chief of Police and Town Manager before the charter was changed to a mayoral form. He was a man of strength and integrity, and I think of him, and the things I learned from him, often.
