A memorial service for Shirley Land — Westport’s uber-arts-and-history volunteer who died in July — will be held on Saturday, October 18, at the Westport Library (1:30 p.m.). That’s a fitting site, as the library was one of her greatest passions. Shirley served it well for many decades, in countless capacities.
Immediately following the service, the family will gather at the nearby Westport Senior Center (21 Imperial Avenue).
Contributions in Shirley’s name can be made to the Westport Library, 20 Jesup Road, Westport, CT 06880.
