Gary Byker Library welcomes author and underwater explorer, Valerie van Heest, She will commemorate the tragic Armistice Day Blizzard of 1940 in which five ships and 64 sailors were lost. She examines the wrecks of the Novadoc and Anna C. Minch, and presents the only footage ever captured of the William B. Davock, all lost off West Michigan. She provides insight into what caused these massive freighters to sink when others survived the storm, and helps the sons of two Davock victims say final goodbyes to their fathers.FREE program will be held in our lower level program room, accessible by stairs or elevator.
