Community
Raymah Simpson, Bristol Town Clerk/Tax Collector, was named the Grand Marshal of this year’s Fourth of July parade. While Raymah got to ride in a luxurious convertible, joining her and the more than two-dozen other entries this year was another celebrity, George Washington, who managed to pedal his way through town on a three-wheel bicycle.
