HILLSVILLE ― Hillsville Rescue Squad, which has been dying a slow death for years, will linger no more after disbursing its funds on March 20.
Many witnesses gathered in the offices of the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce to witness the agency's last act.
As a kind of last will and testament, long-time members of the defunct rescue squad handed out $3,000 checks to benefit non-profit groups based in the Twin Counties.
