Voices of the Bay: Bristol’s Dick Devault
When Dick Devault retired after 32 years of active military service, he discovered he had free time on his hands. It wasn’t long before he was filling his days as a member of the Bristol Fourth of July Committee – for which he served as the 2018 Patriotic Speaker and was a past recipient of the Hattie Brown Award – and the Bristol County Elks Lodge.

He and his wife Lydia are the parents of two grown children and grandparents to four.
