Viterbo Loses an Old Friend

The Viterbo community said farewell to David Bell, 85, a man with special ties to Viterbo, who passed away on Sept. 8.

Bell was a recipient of the 1991 Pope John XXIII Award for Distinguished Service and founding member of the Dubna and La Crosse Sister City Alliance. He was also responsible for bringing the Dubna Trio to Viterbo for a performance in the 1980s.

Busya Lugovier was a member of the trio and eventually stayed in La Crosse where she remains with the Viterbo music program.
