Bill is helping someone enjoy a better life. Bill O’Farrell visited Summer Street on several occasions and always admired what he saw. When he began to think about gift planning he decided to call Executive Director, Bob Bennett and went on a full tour. “I had no idea how much was really happening there. The enthusiasm and sense of happiness and well-being I saw were truly inspiring.” Now retired, Bill spent 55 years in the automobile industry, most of that time as owner of the GM franchise in Pictou County. His generous gift of shares realized a significant gain when they were transferred and made an even greater impact than originally imagined. Have you thought about Planned Giving? Summer Street and other Directions Council members rely on your support to sustain programs across the province.
