NORTH ADAMS â William âBillyâ Evans is coming home.
Wednesday night, the body of the slain U.S. Capitol Police officer will be returned to his native North Adams, followed by a private funeral and burial Thursday in Adams.
It was not clear how Evans, who was honored Tuesday with a memorial service in the Capitol Rotunda in Washington, would make the journey from there. But, North Adams Mayor Thomas Bernard said there will be a brief procession about 7:30 p.m. as the motorcade makes its way along Main Street.
âThat time of day, what Iâm hoping is, people will have flashlights or candles or something,â Bernard said. âBeing able to light up the route could be a nice gesture â lighting his way home, if you will.â
