Town staff looking at short-term rentals

HEIDI RIEDNER hriedner@yrmg.com While area residents living next door to what they call "party palaces" want the town to ban or regulate online short-term accommodation rentals, legitimate Airbnb owners fear overzealous regulation will kill a viable and much-needed economic and tourism driver in town. Town staff will look into the issue after numerous residents came to council Sept. 6 armed with a long list of complaints regarding the Airbnb concept of short-term cottage rentals. At issue are the ones purchased for the sole purpose of converting residences into vacation rentals by corporations and off-site "landlords." l See AIRBNBS, page 8

Area residents want them banned and/or increased enforcement, but Relihan says good BnBs bring more to the table than they take away and also provide much needed tourist accommodation in an underserved community.

Mom furious after bus driver suspected of impaired driving JEREMY GRIMALDI jgrimaldi@yrmg.com "Carnage, absolute devastation" is the first thing to enter Dawn Chaykowsky’s mind when she thinks about what might have been had the driver of her son’s school bus not been charged before doing some serious damage. "Just imagine the scene if they’d hit a Mack truck," said the 50-year-old mother of two. "It would have been like someone put those kids through a blender. A head-on collision with no seatbelts. They would have been pulverized." Chaykowsky says she is extremely blunt because she has intimate knowledge of the impact a drunk driving collision can have on human beings. It was in 2001 that her mother and sister were struck by a three-time offending drunk driver - resulting in her mother’s death at age 56. Luckily for the 20 students on the bus, their families and thousands of others associated to Markham’s Bill Crothers Secondary School students, the driver was pulled from the vehicle after just a minor fender bender. Police said there was booze just inches from her person. It was on Aug. 29 that Keswick Grade 11 student Mitchell Chaykowsky, 16, boarded the bus. A kick-boxing specialty student at Crothers, an athletics-based high

The incident also hits close to home as Dawn’s mother was killed by a drunk driver. school, Mitchell had been attending school since Aug. 8. For the three weeks leading up to the start of the school year, when his regular driver would take back the wheel, Mitchell and his fellow students were in the care of a female bus driver. It was your everyday morning until the driver mounted the curb twice on her way to school. "I thought that was weird, but figured everyone makes mistakes," Mitchell told yorkregion.com. It was on the trip home
when the students would see something they’d never experienced before, an accused drunk driver in action. "Right away when we’re in the bus, about to go onto the road from the parking lot, she’s driving half on the sidewalk," he said. By the time they reached the intersection of Warden Avenue and Enterprise Boulevard., Mitchell felt the bus brake hard, causing many students to brace themselves. The bus had rear-ended a vehicle stopped at a red light in front of it. "She reversed and

was as though she had marbles in her mouth. That’s when I thought to myself ’Wait, she’s on something.’ She had 20 kids’ lives in her hands. Why she would do something like that?" When Dawn, a sales representative with York Region Media Group, got the call from Mitchell she was beside herself with anger, but also experienced an overwhelming sense of relief that no one was hurt on this day. "I know the carnage that could have happened," she said. "People don’t realize that when you go to

seemed to try and leave the scene, and then rear-ended the vehicle again," he added. "She didn’t ask if we were OK, we were all asking her questions, but she didn’t reply. We all got on our phones asking our moms to pick us up, but when I asked if we could leave she told us ’no.’" When York Regional Police arrived, Mitchell says he witnessed three open packs of gum near the bus driver. "She told the officer she only hit the car once, but I was behind her shaking my head, ’No,’" he added. "When she was speaking it
the morgue to identify someone in cases like this, 95 per cent of the time loved ones are in pieces, legs gone, torsos missing. That is drunk driving. No one will ever know how close these kids came to that." Dawn believes society has become lackadaisical to the results of drunk driving, especially considering the numbers of motorists charged in York Region continues to rise. "We have all learned to live with (drunk driving), everyone just hopes it won’t happen to them," she added. "But I can’t even tell you about the void that it leaves in your life when it does, I have so many people around me that care about me, but I am still lonely without (my mother)," she explained. "It’s the most gut-wrenching thing, it’s a dark and lonely experience to lose someone like that. I wouldn’t wish on anyone." At this moment Dawn will say she’s just glad a tragedy was averted, but there will be another. "I am just happy my son is safe," Dawn said. "What will happen to the bus driver? Who knows, a slap on the wrist probably. What are the answers? I don’t know." A 54-year-old woman from Georgina has been charged with refusing a breathalyzer and dangerous operation of a motor vehicle. The York Region District School Board said it takes "stringent measures" to vet drivers and promised to look into measures used to hire this driver. Stock Transportation said the bus driver was fired following the incident.

The total tally of the ride, which could be close to $8,000 once the final numbers are confirmed, will help defray some of the costs of the program, including an estimated $85per-banner installation fee from the company contracted by the town to hang and remove banners.

against West Nile virus
What is West Nile virus? West Nile virus is a mosquito-borne virus that is spread to humans from the bite of an infected mosquito.
The virus cannot be transmitted person-to-person by touching, kissing or sharing cups and utensils with someone who has the virus.
Most people infected with West Nile virus do not get ill at all. Those who do may experience flu-like symptoms within two to fifteen days, including: • Fever • Muscle weakness • Stiff neck • Confusion • Headaches • Sudden sensitivity to light Sometimes West Nile virus can cause severe illness including meningitis and encephalitis (inflammation of the brain).

ABOUT US
Hiking HST for cities a bad idea, but what’s better? Meet Kathleen Wynne, tax fighter. Even the Ontario premier’s staunchest allies will agree that’s not a description that is often applied to Wynne. And yet, you can thank her for saying an abrupt ’no’ to a request from the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) which would have seen the harmonized sales tax (HST) go up by one per cent in order to fund municipal infrastructure improvements such as roads, sewers and arenas. No doubt this is not what Wynne had in mind when she told municipalities to work together on developing new sources of revenue to make a dent in municipal infrastructure gaps. Increasing the HST from 13 to 14 per cent is not among the options she is prepared to consider. Not with an election around the corner and polls showing the Liberals are inching back into contention with the Progressive Conservatives. A bad idea motivated by good reasons is still a bad idea. Increasing the HST is not something any of the major political parties are willing to consider. Especially not the Liberals who have been criticized for previous tax increases, and especially not with a hotly contested provincial election just around the corner. But here’s the thing: While this idea was doomed from the start, the problem it was intended to address is all too real and getting more serious. Municipal officials have been warning for years that towns and cities cannot afford the growing cost of infrastructure maintenance and development. With increasing concern about liability, insurance costs are becoming prohibitive, leading to public facilities in some communities being shuttered. Roads, sewers and bridges across the province are in need of serious upgrades and repairs. This hits smaller communities with small tax bases hard, and only adds to the larger, better-documented burden placed on cities like Toronto. In most communities, the gap between need and available investment is growing incrementally every year. Provincially, it’s pegged at $4.9 billion. How will municipalities keep up? They don’t have the myriad of revenue options the province has. But for most municipalities, the options are few: increasing user fees, reduce services or increase property taxes. None of those is a sustainable strategy. They leave property taxpayers not only in Toronto but across the province with an untenable burden. There is no question. Municipalities need more options. Where are the solutions that are palatable to all involved?

Grateful for care at Southlake On Aug. 13, my son was rushed to Southlake Regional Health Centre in Newmarket by ambulance. Upon arrival in the emergency room, the doctors and nurses immediately responded to him. My son passed later that day. Our family would like to thank the doctors and the nurses in both the E.R. and the I.C.U. where he was transferred to before passing on. They were so compassionate and caring in my time of devastation. I would also like to thank a stranger who held my hand and tried to comfort me when my son went into cardiac arrest. I wish I had gotten his name he, too, was a patient in the E.R. at the time. Thank you to staff at

I am convinced that the data would show that on a per capita basis, dump trucks have a disproportionate number of accidents compared to other vehicles on the road. The number of dump trucks on these roads has exploded in recent years and there have been tragic consequences.

Aug. 17. Attention parents and parents-to-be: 1) You decided to have a child (or children); 2) You are highly-educated with excellent careers; 3) You calculated all the costs and responsibilities of having children; 4) You decided to continue with your careers and leave the responsibility of taking good care of your child/children to a child care facility; 5) Now, you find you didn’t calculate the cost of that capable responsibility to take wonderful care of your child/children. Is that it in a nutshell? As in everything in your life,
you must take full responsibility for those decisions. Our tax dollars are not there to relieve the ’burden’ of those decisions. You have left the responsibility of care in the capable hands of child care workers. Do they not deserve the payment they receive for taking care of your child/children for approximately eight hours a day while you fulfil your decision to continue your career? I am talking specifically about two parents with capable careers. I am a mother of three and grandmother of seven, so I know full well the decisions I had to make in my life to fulfil what I wanted and to make sure my children had the best care possible, either with me or with a responsible child care facility.

BUSINESS
Airbnbs encourage tourism, support businesses, operator says l Continued from page 1
"These facilities don’t comply with Airbnb language of ’staying in someone’s home,’" Willow Beach resident and former Ward 3 councillor Dave Szollosy said regarding the 20 properties listed in Willow Beach alone, many of which fall under the same parent organization. "These are nobody’s homes . They are a motel business in residential zones that don’t pay commercial taxes and undermine those that do," he added. While Szollosy advocated for stepped-up bylaw enforcement, Jackson’s Point BIA president Steve Jacobson suggested a town committee come up with a "Georgina solution." That would include limiting the number of people and room rentals allowed, owner-occupan-
cy requirements, strict controls on the number of guests allowed on properties served by septic systems, and mandatory town inspections. Many municipalities are grappling with a proliferation of what amounts to unregulated, untaxed accommodation units being offered for short -term rental through online platforms. The city of Toronto, for example, is looking into possible registration fees, licensing and new land use classifications. Last year, legislation passed in Quebec made licences and lodging taxes a requirement for Airbnb operators. "Georgina’s answer will have to be different to deal with the short-term party palace situation that exists here," Jacobson, who lives close to three in Jackson’s Point said, citing rowdy weekend parties of up to 30 peo-
ple driving him and his wife indoors for most of the summer. That includes "foul language, sex on the dock, lewd actions on the dock, loud and vulgar hip hop music, beer cans thrown in the lake and drunken screaming . to all hours of the night", Jacobson said. Other residents, representing most of Georgina’s lakeshore communities, agreed, suggesting the town ban the "illegal" operations, regulate the industry or step up fines and enforcement for repeated noise, parking, occupancy and other bylaw, health and safety and fire code infractions. "My neighbour is breaking the law and at the very least is not conforming to the established plan by regulatory bodies," said Pat Ralph, who lives beside a home on Hedge Road she says was purchased for "the sole purpose of operating a
commercial operation" whose absentee owner doesn’t deal with the "madness" associated with the 20-guest parties per weekend on average. "I’m not opposed to the concept, but what is happening every weekend is deplorable,’ Ralph added. While Airbnb operator Nancy Relihan agrees the "party palaces are where the train has come off the track," she says the Airbnb train has already left the station in terms of popularity as an alternative to traditional hospitality routes and the town should get on board. "Airbnbs are the way people are exploring the world now and they bring tourists and dollars to town. We want people to come here for tourism and to support local businesses, but there is nowhere for them to stay. There is a severe lack of accommodation in this town. Not everyone wants to camp at
Sibbalds Point, not everyone can afford to stay at The Briars, and not everybody wants the Ramada." Relihan, who owns the Lakeshore in Jackson’s Point, doesn’t think Georgina has to "reinvent the wheel" in terms of regulation since there are already bylaws in place that deal with the majority of complaints. "We should be dealing with it through existing bylaws the same way we do with bed-and-breakfasts. The bylaws are there, they need to be enforced." Relihan says a fourroom rental cap would stop the problem of "party palaces" without over-legislating a business that provides sorely lacking rental accommodation and tourist dollars. She said any new regulations should be at the provincial, not municipal, level so it is a level playing ground for everyone concerned.
And she most certainly doesn’t agree with an "owner on-site" clause suggested by Jacobson. "The notion that the owner has to be on-site is ridiculous," says Relihan, who is what is known as an Airbnb "super host" who manages more than one property in an area. "I don’t need to be here to supervise or babysit my guests. I don’t have 30 people crammed in. If you cap the rental at four rooms/ beds, you effectively deal with that issue." With council members fielding numerous complaints during the past two years, regional councillor Naomi Davison said it is "well past time to deal with the issue." "Certainly we need to take some next steps," Mayor Margaret Quirk agreed. "Vacation rentals have happened for decades up here ... but this has introduced a whole other element."

Mulroney vows to spend more time in riding LISA QUEEN lqueen@yrmg.com Ontario Progressive Conservative leader Patrick Brown was all smiles at the Georgina Ice Palace on Sunday. Small wonder. Dozens of party supporters packed into the hall to watch the acclamation of star candidate Caroline Mulroney, daughter of former prime minister Brian Mulroney, who will run for in York-Simcoe in next spring’s provincial election campaign. Before accepting the nomination, a number of business owners, young people and local politicians from across the riding, which includes Georgina, East Gwillimbury, Bradford and a sliver of King Township, sang her praises.

The love-in ran in stark contrast to many other nomination processes mired in allegations of improprieties, intimidation, ballot-stuffing and fraud by Brown’s supporters. Brown was making no apologies about the controversies when he spoke with reporters after Mulroney’s acclamation. "I went to the extraordinary step of asking (auditing consultant) PWC to monitor our nomination meetings and I would challenge the NDP and the Liberals to do the same," he said, claiming his party’s nominations have caused a spike in party memberships to record levels. "We have upped the ante in terms of making sure these are run fairly in a manner that is consistent with our democratic traditions. But I will also say

this, there have also been cases where we’ve disqualified candidates and that’s my right as leader of the party. If someone does not share my optimistic, positive vision for Ontario, if they have things in their past that we find through our candidate vetting that would bring embarrassment to the party, we’re entitled to disqualify them." Meanwhile, Mulroney, who only bought a residence in Georgina in the spring, focused on her ties to the riding. "My husband works in the city, we have a place there. It’s not easy but we do a lot of driving and a lot of scheduling and we make it work," said Mulroney, a lawyer and the vice-president of Toronto-based investment firm BloombergSen Investment Partners.

CONNECT is a new kind of public-powered journalism. You ask the questions that matter to you — about any issue, big or small — and we will find the answers and publish them online and in our newspapers. Ask your question at YORKREGION.COM/CONNECT
More CONNECT Q&A MICHAEL ASKED: Why is an always empty YRT bus (marked as 320 express) going up and down along Hwy 404 all day long? I have never seen any passengers in it.
HOW CAN WE COMPARE EMERGENCY WAIT TIMES? Shutterstock
yorkregion.com
KIM ZARZOUR kzarzour@yrmg.com You’re faced with a health emergency. Where do you go? Do you take a chance and drive to the local hospital emergency room, possibly waiting for hours on end, or take a gamble on another hospital further away? Karen Mulvey lives in Keswick and works in Vaughan. She asked us, through CONNECT, whether the province’s new wait times registry will make it easier to decide where to go for emergency health care. The answer is yes – and no. If you live in York Region, you have three emergency room (ER) options: Newmarket’s Southlake Hospital in the north, Mackenzie Health and Markham Stouffville in the south. If you live in the northernmost parts of the region, Royal Victoria in Barrie may be a fourth option. The province has created a new online tool that provides wait times for these, and 122 other ERs and Urgent Care Centres in Ontario. You can visit ontariowaittimes.com to get an idea
of how long a patient needing immediate, unscheduled health care can expect to spend in an ER. However, that information is not posted in real time (it’s updated on the second last business day of the month), and it can’t tell you the time you will spend in ER on a particular day. Only patients heading to Markham Stouffville Hospital can see estimated emergency wait times in real time, thanks to a tool on the hospital’s website, msh.on.ca Royal Victoria is currently reviewing that technology to see if it would be beneficial for
Barrie, according to Paula Istead, operations director, Emerg e n cy a n d I C U. M a cke n z i e Health will also consider the service, spokesperson Catalina Guran said. Meantime, the best provincewide data says you can expect to wait the longest in the ER in the wee hours of the morning. At Mackenzie Richmond Hill hospital, busiest days for the emergency depar tment are Sundays and Mondays (or Mondays and Tuesday after the long weekends), Guran said. Longest waits are usually around 10 a.m. until noon and 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. At Southlake, there is not
one particular day or time that is the busiest, according to the hospital’s strategic communications consultant Kathryn Perrier. It is also difficult to pinpoint the busiest days and times at Royal Victoria, said Dr. Natalie Cousineau, chief of emergency. “We typically see and treat up to 300 patients each day, making us the busiest ED in the region,” she said. “We service a huge geographical area, are situated on a very busy main highway and deal with a large influx of seasonal patients due to our proximity to cottage country.” In general, urban residents tend to wait longer in ER than people living in rural areas, according to a study by Health Quality Ontario. Karen Mulvey thinks there would be value in a real-time clock that would allow residents to compare hospitals and avoid the “brutal” wait times. “What happens now, people get there and wait for hours and leave angry. At least you’d know g o i n g i n a n d m ayb e wo u l d choose not to go, to wait and go to your doctor during business hours instead.”
The answer from Christine Terin, manager of marketing and communications at YRT: YRT Route 320 - Newmarket-Beaver Creek Express was implemented on Sept. 6, 2016 as per York Region Transit’s 2016 annual service plan. This express route connects Newmarket and Aurora with Beaver Creek and Commerce Valley employment areas via Hwy. 404. It operates during weekday rush hours at a frequency of 35 minutes. Ridership has steadily increased from accommodating approximately 26 passengers to approximately 37 passengers daily in the last three months. YRT/Viva monitors new services for a minimum of 12 months of operation to ensure they meet service standards. JULIE ASKED: What has happened to the big fountain, sponsored by the Newmarket Rotary Club, that used to run in Fairy Lake? It hasn’t been on all summer and we miss it. The answer from Jeff Bond, Newmarket parks manager: The fountain was damaged due to the large amounts of rain during the week of June 19, June 22 and June 23. The fountain was eventually carried away by the heavy flow of water. Newmarket staff tried to recover the fountain, but efforts have been discontinued due to safety concerns. A READER ASKED: When is the City of Vaughan going to widen Hwy. 7 between Kipling Avenue and Wigwoss Drive? It is the only stretch of Hwy. 7 that is still two lanes. The answer from Thomas MacPherson, manager of transportation asset management at the Region of York: At this time, there are no immediate plans to widen this section of Hwy. 7. Future rapid transit is identified for this section of Hwy. 7, but there are currently no immediate plans and timelines for the stretch. However, there are other significant transportation projects currently under construction that can help get residents around in the City of Vaughan; this includes the Toronto-York Spadina subway extension and the Hwy. 7 West/Woodbridge vivaNext rapid transit project. More information on these projects can be found at vivanext.com.

LISA QUEEN lqueen@yrmg.com Pink slips will be handed out at some York Region businesses this fall amid an anticipated disappointing hiring climate, according to the latest ManpowerGroup Employment Outlook Survey. While only three per cent of York employers plan to hire workers from October to December, 10 per cent expect to lay off staff, said spokesperson Maple Kyriacou of Manpower’s Markham office. Another 87 per cent of employers expect to keep their current staffing levels. Once seasonal variations in staffing levels are accounted for, the region’s employment outlook is a 20-percentage point decrease compared to the previous quarter, Kyriacou said. "It is also a decrease of 11 percentage points from the outlook reported during the same time last year, indicating a weak hiring pace for the upcoming months," she said in a statement. York’s anticipated hiring climate is even more disappointing since a general trend of modest growth is predicted nationally, Darlene Minatel, vice-president of Manpower Canada oper-
ations and strategic accounts, said. "Most of the hiring activity is expected to focus on Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia; how-

Prostate Cancer Awareness Month
Notice of Study Completion Georgina Comprehensive Stormwater Management Master Plan The Town of Georgina, through their consultant Aquafor Beech Limited, has completed the Environmental Assessment for the Georgina Comprehensive Stormwater Management Master Plan. The study was completed to better understand the level of stormwater management service currently provided across the study area (the Town of Georgina), to identify future improvements needed to sustainably develop and manage stormwater infrastructure, and to identify opportunities to reduce the loading of pollutants to Lake Simcoe. The study was completed in accordance with Environmental Assessment Master Plan Approach 1. The recommended approach developed through the EA process includes stormwater management facility retrofits, stormwater retrofits of road right-of-ways, source controls to manage runoff on residential properties, the development of end-of-pipe facilities on public lands and improved stormwater facility maintenance. An Environmental Study Report (ESR) for the project has been placed in the public record for a 30-day review period starting August 17, 2017. The ESR is available for review at the Keswick Public Library located at 90 Wexford Drive, the Peter Gzowski (Sutton) Public Library located at 5279 Black River Road, the Pefferlaw Public Library located at 76 Pete’s Lane, and at the Town of Georgina Civic Centre located at 26557 Civic Centre Road.

In business for over 30 years, Flooring Centre offers customers a number of flooring options, including hardwood flooring, laminate, ceramic and porcelain tiles.
wood selections - such as Kentwood, Beaulieu, Preverco, Satin Finish and Bruce - won’t be surprised to find top brands available in other areas of décor. That includes Ceratec, Anatolia, X-tile, Centura and Olympia tiles; Beaulieu carpet; and Seymour windows and doors. With so much to choose from, however, those who may feel a bit overwhelmed when trying to put all the pieces together can speak with a colour and design specialist to help incorporate your design elements into an overall scheme. But it doesn’t stop there. The Flooring Centre can take you through all levels of the process — from choosing the right product, to design, to installation. “Our customers can rely on our commitment to quality and we can help the do-it-yourselfer or provide professional installation services,” says Rick. The Flooring Centre is also an authorized dealer in Georgina for the Big Green Egg barbecue.

Georgina Highland dancer gets royal audience HEIDI RIEDNER hriedner@yrmg.com Georgina Highland dancer Kyla Mcgill had a dream come true earlier this month, and she’s only 12 years old. Dancing the intricate art since she was three years old at Celtic Steps School of Highland Dance in Keswick, Mcgill had the honour of performing in front of close to 16,000 people - including none other than Queen Elizabeth II herself - at the Braemar Highland Gathering in Scotland on Sept. 2. "I have wanted to dance for her ever since learning four years ago it was possible to dance for the Royal Family at the gathering," Mcgill said, adding she was thrilled to receive her letter of acceptance after applying earlier this year. Held a short distance from the Royals’ retreat on the Balmoral estate

Above, Queen Elizabeth II gives a last appreciative glance as she leaves the Braemar Highland Gathering in Bonnie Scotland Sept. 2. Right, Kyla McGill (wearing the green, black and white aboyne traditional attire for national dances of Scotland) is seen dancing the Flora on stage in the middle as Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Phillip watch. and always held on the first Saturday in September, Queen Elizabeth made her first appearance as a seven-year-old child in 1933.
Mcgill’s first appearance was "a real honour" and something she will never forget. "I felt proud that I was selected to dance for her.
To adopt a pet from the Georgina Animal Shelter call 905-722-3452 or drop by the shelter on Civic Centre Road. Open Mon. to Fri. from 8:30am to 5:30pm and Sat. 8:00am to 4:00pm.

Libby is sweet calico who loves to curl up on your lap. Libby is approximately 4 years old female she came to us as a stray early August. Libby has a little bit of spunk in her and she can keep up just as well as a kitten but she would much prefer to fall asleep In your lap receiving as many pets as she can get.
It’s not something a lot of people get to do. I was happy because I really love Highland dancing and to have the Queen watch my dancing was
very special." Mcgill credits her dance teacher Christina Thomas for being instrumental in her achievement.
"Christina is a great teacher. She helps us improve our dancing and supports us with our goals, including dancing for the Queen."

SURVIVING HURRICANE WEATHER During the past few weeks, our weather reporters have been meticulously covering the path of two severe hurricanes, Harvey and Irma, which have caused severe damage from intense winds and rains. These reports remind us of one of the well-known parables of Jesus recorded at the end of the “Sermon on the Mount” in Matthew Chapter 7, verses 24-27. “Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the flood waters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock.” Jesus then compared this to “But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. When the rains and floods come and winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash”. Every good builder knows that a rock-solid foundation is essential for a strong, secure building. The Psalmist (David) records: “The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer...in him will I trust” (2 Samuel 22: 1,2). Jesus is described by the Prophet Isaiah as a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation and all who trust in him will never be disappointed.
ALL WELCOME
To follow the teachings of Jesus and to put them into practice in our daily lives is a wise decision and if we do so, our life will be built upon a sure, firm foundation. We will not be blown about by every new idea that hits the press.

So He wrapped His arms around you, and whispered, “come unto me”. You didn’t deserve what you went through, and so He gave you rest. God’s garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best. So when I saw you sleeping, so peaceful and free from pain. I could not wish you to come back, to suffer that all again”. Love always and forever your family
