STRYKER AREA HERITAGE COUNCIL TO HOLD SPECIAL PROGRAM

The shoot­ing of a top radio per­son­al­ity, the mur­der of a child in Williams County, a man tar­geted by a noto­ri­ous gang and the worst tragedy at a school in America…all sto­ries that were cov­ered by a reporter from the area and all will be fea­tured in a pro­gram this Sat­ur­day morn­ing, April 20.

The Stryker Area Her­itage Coun­cil is invit­ing peo­ple to the Sat­ur­day morn­ing pre­sen­ta­tion to hear all about the major crime sto­ries writ­ten by Stryker native Ralph Goll.

Stryker Area Her­itage Coun­cil Trustee Bill Priest will lead those in atten­dance back through some of the top sto­ries of the mur­der and crime cov­ered by Mr. Goll that occurred largely in the 1930’s and 40’s.

Ralph Goll was born in Stryker. He later lived in the Mont­pe­lier and Net­tle Lake areas of Williams County. He died in New York City in 1957.

The pro­gram is free and open to the pub­lic and will be held at the Stryker Amer­i­can Legion on Sat­ur­day, April 20, begin­ning at 10 a.m.

The Stryker Amer­i­can Legion will be hold­ing a break­fast that morn­ing from 7 to 10 a.m. that is open to the pub­lic, and the Stryker Area Her­itage Coun­cil will open the depot to peo­ple who would like to look over the his­tor­i­cal items on dis­play there. The depot will be open after the Goll pre­sen­ta­tion until 1 p.m.
