Donald Mulville  

Donald "Burge" Mulville, 84, of Wesfield, passed away on Friday. Known to most as "Gomper" and a lifelong resident of Westfield, he was a 1946 graduate of Westfield High School. He served in the U.S. Army as a member in the occupational forces in Germany following World War II. After his discharge from the Army, he began work as a steeplejack, eventually starting his own business, Mulville Steeple Service. He worked on many church steeples and buildings in the Pioneer Valley, including the Carillon Tower at Stanley Park. After retiring from Forish Construction Company in 1990, he began making custom weathervanes, and after the 1994 Winter Olympics he crafted a special figure skater weathervane for Olympic medalist Nancy Kerrigan.
