Hometown Heroes is a project in Fair Haven founded by Emily Stockwell in support of veterans locally and around the state. Stockwell is the daughter of a notable World War II veteran of Fair Haven, the late Bernard Stockwell.
Bernard “Bun” Stockwell was born on March 30, 1923, in Fair Haven where he also graduated high school. He is remembered for serving in the European theater during WWII after enlisting in the U.S. Army.
Following his time in uniform, he served for 50 years as a member of the Fair Haven Fire Dept., a member of the Fair Haven Rescue Squad, Fair Haven Historical Society, and the Fair Haven American Legion Post #49 and its Color Guard. For his contributions and honorable service as a hometown hero, a profile of Bun Stockwell will be featured on the first Vermont Veterans Tribute, located in Fair Haven.
