Council Pays
Tribute to
William Leßar
Pass Resolution Lauding
Work of Industrialist
Paying tribute to one of Wyan
dotte's greatest industrialists, the
city council Tuesday night drew up
the following resolution, lauding the
public services rendered by the late
William D. Leßar, whose death
occurred November 21.
“It is with a sense of profound
sorrow that we record the death of
William D. Leßar which occurred
November 21, 1944. Former member
of the Municipal Service Commis
sion and an outstanding citizen in
many ways, his loss to the com
munity will be keenly felt.
“Mr. Leßar was a true native son,
being bom in Wyandotte and living
here his entire life. Following his
education in the local schools he
took a humble position with the
Pennsylvania Salt Manufacturing
Company where he rose 6teadily
from the ranks. His genius for or
ganization and administration was
recognized by that corporation by
naming him General Superinten
dent of the Wyandotte plant, a post
he capably filled until his untime
ly death. His untiring energy and
absolute fidelity to duty were a by
word among the host of friends who
knew and admired him.
“Notwithstanding the heavy de
mands on his time, he accepted an
appointment on the Municipal Serv
ice Commission in 1926 as a civic
duty and devoted his considerable
talents to that body with energy
and distinction for more than six
years. Embracing the period of the
depression and of plant expansion,
his public service covered a very
difficult time, calling for more than
ordinary ability, foresight and
judgment, and these admirable
qualities he possessed in a marked
degree. Throughout his public and
private life Mr. Leßar maintained
an abiding interest in civic affairs
of any nature tending to make the
city of his birth—the city he loved,
a better place to live and work and
play.
“This Council believes the public
.ervice of Mr. Leßar should be per
manently recorded in the annals
of the city, and therefore, be it
RESOLVED by the City Council of
Ihe City of Wyandotte that the
itizens of the City, through us their
representatives, do hereby declare
heir sense of the great loss to the
immunity in the passing of Mr.
William D Leßar, and do acknowl
edge his unselfish devotion and fi
delity to the best interests of the
city, and be it further
• RESOLVED that as an expres
sion of sympathy, and to perpetu
ate the same on the records of the
city, this Resolution be spread at
length upon the journal of this day's
proceedings, and that the Clerk be.
and he hereby is directed to trans
mit a copy of this Resolution to
the family of the deceased.'’
