It
has been said that remembrance is a form of meeting, and it is
hoped that these remembrances of a village's beginnings and growth
will allow us to meet individuals, events, and ways of living
which created the town we live in. Bensenville was created by
a group of people who used the resources of mind and land available.
First building with their own hands houses, farms, schools, and
churches, and then organizing a local government to serve the
needs of a community. They invented, improvised, coped and endured.
A shared knowledge of the community's past contributes to a sense
of unity and belonging. We would remember our past for the strength
and joy it brings to the present.
