In Memoriam: Former Chestertown Mayor Elmer Horsey

January 3, 2023 by Spy Staff 5 Comments

Share

Chestertown received very sad news today that former mayor Elmer Horsey has passed away. Horsey served as mayor of Chestertown from 1978 to 1993 and had long ties with Peoples Bank and was also president of the Springfield Foundation which was created by du Pont heiress Louisa d’Andelot Carpenter. He died at the age of 90.

The Spy will have additional coverage soon on Elmer Horsey and his special role in Mid-Shore history.

    Elmer cared deeply for Chestertown. The wide brick sidewalks downtown were part of his vision for the town. I would often seeing him walking in town, stopping to pick up any trash along his way. He also bought his expertise as a savvy business man to the town as well. Negotiating contracts and making investments on behalf of the town.
    His legacy will long be remembered.

    I’m pretty sure those dates aren’t right.
