SUFFIELD â The Board of Selectmen has decided to rename a local bridge in honor of U.S. Navy sailor Dustin L. Doyon, 26, a lifelong resident who died in 2017 in an accident while serving aboard the USS John S. McCain destroyer off the coast of Singapore.
The selectmen voted to rename the bridge after Doyon at their meeting last week.
Selectman Jerry Mahoney, who was particularly close with Doyon and his family, presented the motion and shared a few personal experiences and memories of Doyon.
