The Whitehall Preservation Society
Board of Directors - 2024

​The Whitehall Historical Preservation Society wishes to honor our late society Vice President, Joseph "Joe" Wilfinger who passed away on July 2nd, 2024. He was instantly recognizable to many in the Lehigh Valley by his Indian Turtle necklace.  Joe was a great lover of history and was proud to share his family history with all. Joe’s favorite role with the historical society was wearing authentic period clothing to give tours of the Grist Mill.  Joe’s vision for the future of the historical society was always to have more people utilize and visit the grounds and the buildings. A retired Bethlehem Steel and certified auctioneer Joe dedicated more than 20 years to the society as an active board member and volunteer. We extend condolences to all who knew and loved Joe and may he rest in peace.
