Have you ever wondered what a billion-year-old rock looks like? It might surprise you that when driving through the rugged regions of Lanark and Renffrew counties the rocks you see along the roadside are all about this age, give or take a few hundred million years. The annual spring walk to the top of Blueberry Mountain at the Mississippi Madawaska Land Trust's (MMLT) clifffLAND property on May 6 this year will include a side trip down the Porcupine Trail to view some of these ancient rocks. Last year we set up over a black finegrained metamorphosed volcanic flow. This year Bob Betcher, MMLT's resident hydrogeologist/geologist, will show us some marble, once limestone in a shallow sea but subsequently uplifted and altered by heat and pressure. The type of marble at cliffLAND is slightly soluble in acidic precipitation and over time has developed Karst dissolution features such as caves and sinkholes which can form important habitat for bats, snakes and other creatures. We invite you to join us on May 6 for a W ffascinating look to the distant past on your trek to the top of Blueberry Mountain. Registration for the hike to the lookout, including the geology tour, is at 10 a.m. A donation of $10 per person is requested and children 12 and under are ffree. Children under 12 will be awarded
certificates for making the climb to the lookout. Refreshments will be served after the walk. This event is the second in our new Discover the Wild series. To learn more about this event and other events in the series, visit mmlt.ca/events.
Blueberry Mountain is located at 502 Hills of Peace Rd. near Flower Station in Lanark Highlands. Drive north of Lanark on Highway 511 to Brightside. Turn left on to the French Line Road. Drive toward Flower Station and watch for the right turn when you get to Joe's Lake. Just be-
f fore you reach Flower Station, turn right on to Hills of Peace Road. A map is available at mmlt.ca/events. For more information, please contact Howard or Jean Clifford at 613-259-3412. Submitted by the Mississippi Madawaska Land Trust

The Eastern Ontario Leadership Council (EOLC), a multi-organization partnership tasked with advancing regional economic development opportunities, welcomes the announcement from the Province of Ontario on the $135,000 funding grant to reffresh and plan for implementation of the Eastern Ontario Economic Development Strategy. Minister Jeff Leal, of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Afffairs, joined numerous elected officials and economic development partners from across eastern Ontario during the announcement held Monday in the county of Hastings' council chambers. With eastern Ontario being the ffirst region in Ontario to undertake this endeavour as part of the province's regional economic development planning process, the Ministry of Economic Development and Growth is providing the funding and
any required project support. The EOLC consists of ffive major partners that together represent the various sectors across the region: the Eastern Ontario Wardens' Caucus, the EastW ern Ontario Mayors' Caucus, the Eastern Ontario Regional Network, the Ontario East Economic Development Commission and Community Futures Ontario East. The partnership was launched in 2015 following the release of the initial regional strategy, designed to tackle issues regarding the economic performance of the region and pursue opportunities to maintain and enhance its economic prosperity. This funding will advance the EOLC's ongoing work, which began in 2016 with the creation of three working groups. These groups are responsible for implementation planning and priority setting, while engaging a broad cross-section of public and private
sector stakeholders. They represent the three pillars of the strategy, being: workfforce development and deployment; technology integration and innovation; and integrated, intelligent transportation systems. "The EOLC is a unique organization in Ontario, ffounded on the principle of promoting regional economic development in collaboration with the many municipalities and stakeholders across eastern Ontario, which represents about 1.2 million residents," stated EOLC co-chair Leslie O'Shaughnessy, mayor of the City of Cornwall. "We thank the province and Minister Leal for recognizing the EOLC's work and providing funds to move forward in such a positive manner." The refresh of the 10-year Eastern Ontario Economic Development Strategy will reflect recent economic considerations and incorporate the EOLC's existing regional work.

Newest mental wellness room opens in Lanark County
With the continued success of two mental wellness "drop-in" rooms already in Lanark County comes the opening of a third room just in time for Mental Health Week (May 7-11). After a popular six-month run of a mental wellness room (MWR) in Carleton Place and Almonte, comes the latest addition to open in Perth on May 3. The purpose of the MWRs is to offer fellowship, support and comfort once a week to those people 18 years and older recovering from a mental health condition. It's a great place to share and spend an afternoon with people living with a similar experience. The rooms offer afternoon refreshments (partially funded this year through a grant from Lanark County United Way), all while playing games or simply sitting around a table chatting how your week has been in a safe and confidential place. All rooms contain at least one peer supporter (originally trained with Lanark County Mental Health through a grant from Bell Let's Talk) who are available to listen if needed. Some comments from participants: "This room provides a comfort zone without feeling judged;" "After coming to the room for four months I have never laughed so much and felt this comfortable with my mental health recovery;" "I was really nervous to come to the mental wellness room at first, but felt relieved and welcomed after being here;" "The room got me to open up about myself when I did not expect to;" "I feel the room provides a place where I can unwind and destress;" "I like where it is a place I can go and escape being judged;" and "I like that there is very little structure to the room and you are not expected to do anything except have fun." Mental illnesses like depression and anxiety, etc. are hard to understand or handle especially on your own. If you are suffering from a mental health issue and need professional help, then contact Lanark County Mental Health in Smiths Falls at 613-283-2170. However, if you are working toward your mental health recovery, now there are places in Lanark County you can go to feel better understood. If you wish to be a part of this experience, while feeling safe and welcomed in a non-judgmental environment, then drop in to one of the three MWRs nearest you. Perth (newest) location: Unit 10-C, 8 Herriott St. Held on Thursdays from 12 to 4 p.m. For more information, contact asiebel55@gmail.com. Carleton Place location: 351 Bridge St. at Carambeck Community Centre. Held on Fridays from 12 to 4 p.m. For more information, contact ddrolling696@gmail.com. Almonte location: 3 Rosamond St. at Mississippi Valley Textile Museum (second floor). Held on Tuesdays from 12 to 4 p.m. For more information, contact pcrcmiller@storm.ca. If you live in Smiths Falls, there is a similar drop-in centre called the LINK, which can be reached by calling 613-284-4608. Submitted by Patrick Miller

BBBS tees off May 26
After such a long winter, plan to get out on the golf course for a good cause! Mapleview in Perth will once again be the location ffor the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County's annual golf tournament on May 26 to raise funds for local mentoring programs. 3M Perth is the title sponsor, supporting the local agency and their goal of ensuring that "every child in Lanark County that needs a mentor has a mentor." The fun-filled day is a shotgun start and the $85 registration fee includes a continental breakfast, barbecue lunch, a cart and 18 holes. Register early and save $5. There is a chance to bid on WestJet tickets on the silent auction table among many other great finds. Registration details can be ffound on the agency's website - www.bigbrothersbigsisterslanark.ca. Sponsorship help increase the bottom line for the agency, and there are many options available, including hole sponsors, food
sponsors, and more. It is great visibility for local businesses, and great support for an agency helping kids right here at home. Mentoring programs are about prevention and building resilience. The research indicates that by providing children and youth with positive role models, mentoring programs demonstrate to them that they are valued, and that they possess the strength to overcome the obstacles they will undoubtedly face as they grow older. Mentoring also plays an important role in the future direction a child will decide to take later on in life, paving the way to a future full of possibilities. The Boston Consulting Group research shows that for every $1 invested in Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring programs, $18 is returned to society. Children who have been in mentoring programs see real, positive change. The children involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters go on to graduate from high school
at a rate of 20 per cent higher than the national average. Seventy-eight per cent of those children who came ffrom a social assistance background no longer rely on this form of income and a disproportionately high number of former Littles graduate from college or university compared to others in their age group. On the other hand, children who are denied the benefit of a positive role model are children who will continue to be deemed "at risk," and not children "on the brink of success." Supporting Big Brothers Big Sisters can have big results. It can be as simple as a game of golf. For more information F about the tournament, or about other ways to get involved with Big Brothers v Big Sisters of Lanark County, please call 613-283-0570 or visit their website at www.bigbrothersbigsisterslanark.ca.

Keep safe against ticks and Lyme disease As daytime temperatures rise above 4°C, ticks become active. If bitten by a tick you may be at risk of getting Lyme disease. Ticks are present throughout the entire Leeds, Grenville and Lanark counties area and their life cycle now starts in April and can continue through to November, as long as the temperature stays at least four degrees above freezing. Taking precautions will help to reduce your risk of getting bitten by a tick. If you dress in light-coloured clothing, it makes adult ticks and nymphs (small stage of the tick), easier to see when they are on you as they are darker in colour. Do a tick check when you or your children return inside. Don't forget your pets - even if they don't go outdoors (like cats), anyone can bring them inside and they can find your indoor pet. If possible have someone check you from the back, or hop in a quick shower to help remove any unattached ticks. You can also put your clothes in a hot dryer for several minutes, which has been found to kill ticks. It is important to know that not all ticks carry the bacteria that cause Lyme disease. Lyme disease transmission depends on the length of time the infected tick is attached. Ticks that are removed quickly and have been attached for less than 24 hours are not likely to transfer the bacteria. However, if the tick has been attached for longer than a day, you may be at an increased risk and it is recommended that you consult your health care provider. If you find a fat tick, it is an indication that it has been feeding for a longer period of time and you should provide this information to your health care provider. Lyme disease symptoms can range from a bullseye rash around the bite area, to headache, fever and muscle/joint pain. Ticks often feed on deer or geese, but don't infect them very often. The tick that spreads Lyme disease has a two-year life cycle, and feeds once in each of its three life stages larvae, nymph, and adult. Symptoms can appear from three days to several weeks following a tick bite. They include: fatigue, chills, fever, headache, muscle and joint pain, or swollen lymph nodes. Consult your health care provider as soon as you experience any of these symptoms.

• LETTERS & COMMENTARY • #MeToo play shows misogyny remains problem Dear Editor, Thanks for covering the Burning Passions Theatre Listen UP! play on the #MeToo movement. Our week T was book-ended by the misogynist-inspired Toronto attack and a UN report concluding such violence in Canada remains a "serious, pervasive and systematic problem." Dubravka Simonovic, United Nations Special Rapporteur on Violence Against Women, directed Ottawa to W adopt a National Action Plan (NAP) on violence against women and enact laws to ensure women are protected from violence equally across all jurisdictions.
She noted "the dire shortage of shelters for women and children escaping violence, and lack of affordable public housing, including transitional housing and second stage accommodation and employment opportunities." Such issues were discussed in sessions during our tour. The need is real for interim safe spaces and longer term affordable housing so economic circumstances do not chain vulnerable individuals to dangerous situations. Also, a correction: Mary Cowan, our stage manager, was not the playwright. That is Laurel Smith, who based it on stories by Cowan, Ruby Davidson, Felix Evangelho, Ryan Kreissler, Winston R Mavraganis, and Lu Williams. Julie Lalonde, who recently conducted a workshop on consent attended by

Resident wants action on potholes Dear Editor: I laughed at your recent editorial cartoon pertaining to our potholes that are plaguing the streets of Smiths Falls and parking lot and driveways as well. The Chambers Street plaza: the front of the plaza was band-aided last year and is showing signs of breaking apart. Bay Street down to Centre Street, between Giant Tiger and Benson's is holier than a bible! Centre Street from Gile Street over to the back of Giant Tiger plaza is a minef field!
I wonder what people who have to navigate their way to Rob Roy's, the bowling alley, or the laundromat, think? To whomever owns the T property in and around the Chambers Street plaza: a "pothole filling frenzy" or a complete fix-up would be nice. Some of the potholes are huge! Is the Town of Smiths Falls going to fill the other potholes on the street they are responsible for? Some of them were never filled from last year. It seems my taxes keep rising, the money should be put to good use! It's bad enough the gas prices and the endless "taxes" associated with such angry drivers. Having smoother streets to get there may appease residents. Dacin Jarvis, Smiths Falls S

COUNCIL
9 | Connected to Your Community A/CP/K/P/SF | Thursday, May 3, 2018
County council sets 2018 taxation policies Council has passed bylaws related to 2018 taxation policy, including tax ratios, as well as the levy apportionment to local municipalities. In December, council passed its budget with a levy of $33.3 million and a net tax increase of 1.4 per cent, which is collected through the towns and townships. Chief administrative offficer Kurt Greaves explained at a corporate services committee meeting earlier this month that council apportions the tax burden between the various tax classes, determines how much of the levy comes ffrom each municipality and decides on the mandatory continuation of tax protection (capping) for the commercial and industrial tax classes. When the levy is established, council then sets tax ratios, which distribute taxes between the various classes (e.g. industrial, commercial, residential). "This is done in consulta-
tion with local municipal treasurers, and the recommendation is to adopt revenue-neutral tax ratios to ensure reassessment does not shift the tax burden between the tax classes," Greaves said. The county will refund its portion of landfill taxation to local municipalities, which was a new property tax and tax ratio introduced last year. Mr. Greaves noted the number of properties afffected by the capping rebates following reassessment has declined steadily since 2009, with only nine properties in 2017. The capping bylaw includes all provisions available to reduce the number of capped properties. The county portion of the tax bill is only one of three components on the tax bill, with the local municipality and education portion making up the balance. For more information, contact Kurt Greaves, county chief administrative officer, at 1-888-9-LANARK, ext. 1101.
Change to Inaugural Meeting Process Council has approved an amendment to the procedural bylaw that changes the inaugural meeting process to include a nomination period for the position of warden and committee chairs, effective this year. At a corporate services committee meeting last month, clerk Leslie Drynan outlined the process, which varies depending on whether it is a municipal election year. In a nonmunicipal election year, nomination fforms will be provided to councillors on Oct. 1 for the position of warden and/or committee chair(s). The forms require signatures of the nominee and two county councillors (as mover and seconder) and must be submitted to the clerk at the first regular council meeting in October. At the second regular meeting in October, council will receive a report on valid nominations. If an election is needed,
voting will take place by secret ballot at the first meeting in November. The official swearing-in of the warden and chairs occurs at the inaugural meeting, held each year on the first Tuesday in December. In a municipal election year, the fforms would be provided to the certified newly elected head and deputy head of council in each of the local municipalities. Nominations close Nov. 15, and the forms require the signatures of the nominee and two members of county council-elect. The nomination report will be provided at the second meeting in November, with an acclamation or an election by secret ballot occurring at the inaugural meeting after declarations of office have been made by the councillors. For more information, contact Leslie Drynan, clerk, at 1-888-9LANARK, ext. 1502. Upcoming Meetings • County council, Wednesday, May 9, 5 p.m. W

10 OPINION
Carleton Place Canadians in fifth consecutive Fred Page Cup Jeff Maguire writes about the local Jr. A hockey team's success Over the course of the past five seasons no team in Canadian Jr. A hockey has been as successful as the Carleton Place Canadians. This season the fourtime Central Canada Hockey League (CCHL) champions finished the campaign with 53 regulation time victories in 62 games. Their regular season win total and the 110 points they accumulated were the best results in the Canadian Junior Hockey League (CJHL). The Calgary-based CJHL represents 130 teams in 10 leagues across the country and that also encompasses some clubs in the northern United States.
JEFF MAGUIRE Column Going back to the beginning of Carleton Place's amazing run of success, which began in the 2013-2014 campaign, the high flying Canadians have recorded a phenomenal 249 wins in just five seasons. Heading into this year's post season Carleton Place had won 12 consecutive league playoff series. They defeated Rockland Nationals in five games in the quarter-finals and then swept a good Hawkesbury Hawks team in the semifinals. That ran their post season
winning streak to 14 straight series triumphs. As it turned out there wouldn't be a 15th straight! For the third straight year Carleton Place was matched against an excellent Ottawa Junior Senators hockey club (Sens were a strong second during the regular season). It proved to be third time lucky for Junior Sens. They shocked the favoured Canadians in five games to win their first league title in 16 years. The margins in the series were razor thin. Each game was decided by one goal and Sens captured two contests in overtime. Personally I think that after losing two straight Bogart Cup finals to Canadians the Junior Sens were simply hungrier. But wait, the season is not over. Not for either team! This season Ottawa is playing host to the Fred

Page Cup (FPC) Eastern Canadian Jr. A championship tournament. That competition began yesterday (May 3) at Jim Durrell Sports Complex in south Ottawa. The tournament also ffeatures the Maritime champion Edmundston Blizzard from New Brunswick (formerly Dieppe Commandos) and perennial Quebec winners Longueuil. Because the CCHL is hosting this year a second league team qualifies in order to complete the ffour team format. As league runners up and regular season champions, Carleton Place is a very worthy entry. They opened against Longueuil Wednesday and tonight W (Thursday) at 7:30 there is a much anticipated rematch between Canadi-
ans and Junior Sens. Carleton Place finishes the round-robin portion of the event against Edmundston Friday afternoon at 3:30. This is Canadians fifth straight year at FPC and they hold the tournament record with three straight titles from 2014-2016. The ffinal goes Sunday at 4 p.m. with the winner advancing to the Royal Bank Cup (RBC) Canadian Jr. A championship tournament. This year's showdown is being hosted by Chilliwack Chiefs of the British Columbia Junior Hockey League May 12-20. No matter what happens at FPC this week Carleton Place Canadians' coach, GM and owner Jason Clarke, his coaching staff and the entire team deserve tremendous
credit. Going into the 2017-2018 campaign Carleton Place had won four straight Bogart Cups, appeared in four consecutive Eastern Canadian championship finals, winning three of them and competed in three straight RBC tournaments (2014-2016), making it all the way to the national championship game in both 2014 and 2015. Carleton Place only entered the 57-year-old CCHL in 2009. Their success in just nine seasons of Jr. A hockey is unprecedented! – Jeff Maguire is a career journalist based in Carleton Place, Ont.

coasts of our vast Canada a few times to road test those songs, earning a name and even a moniker, "Lioness of Lanark." The music industry, these days, is not for the ffaint of heart. It's lonely out there, often thankless when starting out, necessitating growth of a thick skin to survive. I'm proud to say the Listening Room Series is hosting one of our own successful pups, Ali McCormick on Saturday, May 12, 7 p.m. at the Perth Restaurant for the CD release of her That Place You Know, her third. Ali grew up off the grid with her family, learning to appreciate nature and music, developing her ffiercely independent spirit and an eye for unique characters and stories that have fed her songwriting mind. I remember when she started out as a kid, many years ago, at open mics around town and the surrounding area. Dedicating herself, working part time jobs to help pay her way, earning the respect of many throughout via an ever expanding tour schedule. She's also donated her skills to countless community ffundraising efforts, ever honing her stagecraft. Ali is an independent musician, in that she has no record company behind her. She proudly pays her own way, thus maintaining her integrity, living modestly, hours spent booking her own tours, studio time and players to augment her sound. Her professionalism is impressive. She's dedicated herself to touching others through her creativity. She's lovin' the ride ... Matthew Armitage (Ramblin' Valley Band) - guitar, Pascal DeWinn - pedal steel, mandolin, harmonica, Laura Greenberg - bass will be augmenting, each in their own way. So now it's our chance to congratulate one of our own and hear the results

OPINION

Older and wiser sibling full of kindness, columnist Mary Cook writes Audrey seemed to know how to fix everything that went wrong in my small world. Much older and certainly much wiser, I could go to my sister with whatever care I carried on my narrow shoulders. She always had a solution. That Saturday was no exception. Bad Marguirite had almost made me cry at school the day before when she commented on my flour bag underwear and my blouse made out of a wellbleached sugar bag. Mother had put rickrack braid around the little collar, and I thought it was beautiful, trying not to think where it had originally come from. Well, Marguirite had no W trouble reminding me. Her underwear came from Walker's Store in Renfrew! W And certainly her mother would never use a sugar bag ffor a blouse! It was all I could do to hold back the tears, and when Audrey saw that
MARY COOK Column something was still bothering me when we were doing our Saturday chores, she took me by the hand and led me to the swing in the grape arbour. We rocked for a while, W and then she said she found that when anything was bothering her, she would think of something that made her feel good, like picturing the money she made selling seeds along the Northcote Side Road, and what she was going to do with it. Or thinking about the new summer Eaton's catalogue that had just arrived in the mail. I tried my best to think of something, but wasn't having much luck, and then Audrey said, "You know what makes me happy? It's when Miss Crosby comes out on the step in the morning and rings the big brass bell. Now, it may
sound silly to you, Mary, but let's think about all the bells we have in our lives." I thought of the cluster of bells that hung around our horses' neck in the winter, and the sheer joy of hearing them on a frosty winter's night sitting wrapped in blankets on the flat-bottomed sleigh. Even though it was the beginning of summer, I could hear the bells in my mind. And a big brass bell hung at our back door, with a clapper tied inside with a piece of rope, and when Father and the brothers were out in the barns or the fields, and Mother had dinner, or supper ready to put on the table, she would stand at the door and clang the bell until someone appeared, waving that they had heard and would come along. Sometimes, she let me ring the dinner bell which made me ffeel very important. Audrey and I laughed and said she thought the bell Father hung around Bossy's neck so that he could always tell where the cows were, certainly wasn't much to look at. It was made of tin, not brass, and Bossy, slow as molasses in January, hardly ever got a ring out of it when
ON GARAGES/ SHEDS
she moved. And then my sister asked me what I heard when I went into Renfrew. And of course, I heard the deep sound of a bell coming from somewhere, I knew not where, but guessed it was ffrom one of the huge churches, probably the Catholic church, since it was the biggest church in town. How I loved it when it chimed the hour of the day. I could never figure out where the chimes came ffrom, but I thought how lucky were the people who lived in town and who could hear that bell every hour. Before I knew it, my mind was rid of the thoughts of Marguirite's biting words, and as Audrey pushed the swing back and forth with her feet, I felt I was just about the luckiest girl in all of Renfrew County. I may not have store bought underwear and clothes, but I had something far more precious than bad Marguirite, an only child, that couldn't be bought at Walker's Store. I had my sister Audrey. – Mary Cook is a longtime writer with several books in print and in electronic ccopies. Email her at wick2@sympatico.ca.

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, take a step back and analyze your current situation before making any other moves. You may be barking up the wrong tree, and you will need a new approach.
LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, you may have to take someone’s word on something or put your ultimate trust in an individual this week. It may be challenging, but let down your guard.
SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Various factors may be clouding your decision-making skills, Sagittarius. If you’re not sure what to do, trust someone else who has always supported you.
TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, there may be many things you wish to say to someone special, but you just do not know how to find the words. You can convey much more through actions.
VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 You need to find firm footing in your career, Virgo; otherwise, you may suffer from lack of direction. Start putting out feelers and begin networking.
CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, finances have been drawing your attention in your life a lot lately. Pay attention to the subtle clues to get your assets in order.
GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, if you have your hand in three or more projects, you may need to step back. It’s hard to devote your full attention to each task when you’re juggling so much at once.
LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Don’t underestimate your abilities, Libra. As a general people-pleaser, you have the ability to smooth over many situations with a calming word.
CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, it is good to have a sense of humor, and you may need a little extra patience at work this week. When times get tough, surround yourself with lighthearted people.
SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 It’s in your nature to want to get to the root of every problem and find out the answers to all the puzzles, Scorpio. This can be tiring, but when you’re determined it’s essential.

The Green Gr Light campaign takes place from May 7th until May 13th as part of an Ontario-wide eff ef ort to help eliminate stigma and raise awareness of the mental health challenges faced by young people. In 2017, our local Child and Youth Y Mental health agency, agency Open Doors for Lanark Children and Youth, Y with the support of local municipalities was able to start a local conversation about Child and Youth Y Mental Health.The municipalities of Smiths Falls, Carleton Place and Mississippi Mills all lit up prominent local landmarks in green light, joining over 70 Ontario other communities that lite buildings and landmarks including the CN To T wer and Niagara Falls. This year again, municipalities and community partners are once again committing to light prominent buildings across the county in support of the Green Gr Light campaign. K vin Clouthier, Ke Clouthier Executive Director at Open Doors says,“Such campaigns add to a national conversation that reduces the shame associated with mental health issues while contributing to the development of necessary programs.This eff ef ort serves also as a reminder to people of the presence of the 1 in 5 children and youth in their community who are living daily with the impact of mental health issues.”

Mental Health Week May 7-13, 2018
Mental health is about more than mental illness
It’s more than being happy all the time. It’s about feeling good about who you are, having balance in your life, and managing life’s highs and lows. Everyone deserves to feel well, whatever their mental health experience. And we all need a support system to lean on. Little kids have a lot of big feelings, ones that can change rapidly and dramatically from the time it takes you to say “Would you like a strawberry jam sandwich?” to “Oh dear, we only have the ends of the bread loaf left.” But they can’t always express their feelings in words, so they often do so in tantrums and tears. Prodding from Mom and Dad—calm down, let’s talk about it, tell me about your feelings, are you upset?— only makes them more frustrated.
My feelings come and go, and all feelings are okay to have! I can think of safe things to do with my feelings.

Lanark Animal Welfare Society offers longtime residents for adoption This week we would like to feature some of our cats who have been overlooked too many times because they took a little while to get used to humans. They've been at the shelter too long. Our volunteers and staff do what they can to socialize these cats with huge success. Now they just need a person or family who would open their heart and home to continue the efforts we already started. If you are looking forward to really make a difference in a cats' life, then please come and meet following cats: Hi there Ivory here. I arrived at LAWS early January on one of those blistery cold days with my two kittens who have been adopted since. I was pretty scared at first but I now know humans can be really nice. They feed me, play with me and even cuddle me. What a treat. I am getting used to being spoiled here. They told me that they're trying really hard to find a forever home for me, too. Can't wait who will come to meet me to adopt me. I am quite comfortable here, but a home to myself would be very exciting. I don't mind being with other cats either. Would you please come and get me? I am at LAWS sharing my space with a few other cats. Albert is a lovely tabby boy with striking markings. He's almost one year old and has been with us since before Christmas. Although he can be a little shy, he does quickly warm up when he trusts you. It's hard for us to understand why he's not adopted yet. Albert is ready to be embraced and you can find
him at LAWS in one of the cat-runs. Nester has been with us since November. This handsome, male, silver grey cat is patiently waiting for his permanent home. He will need a quiet space and a loving family. Maybe best in a home where the children are a little older, or no children. Lately he's more involved meeting potential adopters. We think he's just hoping to get a chance of being invited into a amorous home. Often cats choose their new owners ... could it be you? Why not check him out, he is currently residing in the large cat run area at LAWS with other cats. Babe ... this lovely nineyear-old female cat was surrendered to LAWS because her owner was moving into a retirement home. Sadly there were no pets allowed and Babe is now safely at LAWS. She is adjusting to her new, hopefully temporary, home and you often find her under the sink on a bunch of clean towels. She is very sweet but a little withdrawn as it's quite the change to go to LAWS from a loving home. We're absolutely certain that when she's invited into her new forever home she'll be making you very happy with her presence. Please meet Babe at LAWS. There was a lot of splashing going on last weekend in Almonte at Pet Valu during the National Adoption weekend; 20 dogs came in for a wash or a nail-trim; eight pets got a microchip and all five available kittens were adopted. Thank you all who made it a great success.

No matter how advanced your current ride is, or how good the engine oil system is, routine oil and filter changes are the most common service you will need to have done. Depending on your automaker's recommendations and the distance you drive (along with the conditions), you'll probably visit a lube shop three or four times every year. And if you've ever watched your service tech complete this task, you may ask yourself, "What's so hard about this job?" Truth be told, routine oil and filter service isn't that technically difficult if you've done a few before and if you have the right equipment and tools. So if you're thinking of taking on this task for the first time, here are a few tips. If you plan on using your home driveway or garage, consider that many municipalities have bylaws that prohibit doing automotive repairs on residential properties. These are mostly complaint-driv-
BRIAN TURNER Column en, but if you're lying on your back under your vehicle and that tap on your shoe is coming from a bylaw officer, don't say we didn't warn you. For just about any ride other than a sky-jacked SUV or truck, you'll need some type of device to let you lift the front of the vehicle. Stay away from those press-metal ramps. First, if your auto has a low-riding front air dam or bumper cover, they'll damage it. More importantly, they are extremely unsafe and easy to overshoot and are prone to tipping. A proper floor jack and two axle stands are the only way to go. If you're working on an asphalt-paved driveway, even axle stands will need some support from a thickness of wood, to prevent the legs from sinking in and tipping. Of course, you'll need an oil-filter wrench and six-point socket for the drain plug. Rather than

the strap-type filter wrenches, get the adapter that fits onto a socket drive; they're much easier to use in tight spaces. A drain pan is a must, and many automotive hardware stores offer ones that are incorporated into carry containers that are great for collecting and safely disposing of your old oil. And then you're only left to purchase the oil and ffilter and any other fluids you might need to top things up. Even if you're a smart shopper, this list will cost you $350 to $400 and more at a minimum. But if you take care of these tools and equipment they should outlast your vehicle. A final note: the average labour charge for most oilchange outlets is around $20, so you'd have to do about 20 oil changes to recoup your investment. And none of this takes into account any risk to your wheeled investment if you make a mistake anywhere along the way - nor the satisfaction of doing it yourself. – If you have any questions, opinions or stories on anything automotive, please drop me a line, by email to bjoeturner@hotmail.com with "Question ffor the Car Counsellor" on the subject line.

After over 100 years as a staple of Catholic education in Smiths Falls, St. Francis de Sales Catholic School will close the doors at its current location this June only to be reborn in its new incarnation as part of the new amalgamated school this September. St. Francis originally opened in September 1914 as a seven-room school house in response to local ffamilies' desire for public Catholic education. The school was build adjacent to St. Francis de Sales Roman Catholic Church, linking the church, both in proximity and in spirit, with education at the school. This linkage has remained strong into 2018 - the last year the school will be filled with pupils adjacent to the house of worship.

Where you live in Lanark County determines wait time for housing County updating housing, homelessness plan DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland.com Where you live in Lanark County has a huge impact on how long you may have to wait for housing. "If you don't have a house, there are so many issues you can't deal with," said Sandy Grey, social housing manager with Lanark County during a community consultation on housing and homelessness at the Smiths Falls Memorial Community Centre on April 26. Housing waits can be anywhere from three to five years, with one-bedroom requests being the most prevalent. While domestic violence cases are given priority, "we don't have any emergency housing in Lanark County," apart from Interval House, said Grey, adding "there are some group homes." She was joined by her colleague, Emily Hollington, housing renewal co-ordinator with the county.
Wait times are between W one and seven years. The housing stock that the county currently holds is also not perfect. "We do not have a lot of wheelchair-accessible units," said Hollington, who called it "a huge challenge" that can add significant time to a disabled person on a wait list. There are also no mental health beds in the county. Another challenge ffor the housing insecure is transportation. The audience also heard about the challenges faced by the working poor, and the lack of funding, staff, and resources among the nonprofit sector. Another challenge is getting some data from the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation. Because the CMHC needs a minimum population of 10,000, they do not collect vacancy rate data for Lanark County communities. The county does not have access to housing start numbers from CMHC. There are 790 rentgeared-to-income units in Lanark County, which includes rent supplements, local nonprofit housing, and the local housing corporation, according to Lan-

Emily Hollington, housing renewal coordinator for Lanark County, points out some educational data for the county, broken down by municipality, during the county's community consultation on housing and homelessness at the Smiths Falls Memorial Community Centre's upper hall on April 26. ark County data provided at the meeting. Households in rent-geared-to-income housing are charged 30 per cent of their income for rent. There are 530 households on the wait list for rent-geared-to-income housing, including: 113 seniors; 57 victims of domestic violence and 295 onebedroom requests. There are two affordable housing buildings in Lanark County where rent is charged at 20 per cent below market rent, with one in Almonte with 20 units (with eight under construction); and 20 units in Perth
(with two under construction.) There are some shelter options in the county, including Lanark County Interval House, and a Housing Options Fund, which will pay for a maximum of a ffour-night stay in a motel or hostel. There are 15 group homes that provide support ffor individuals living with development disabilities and various retirement homes and long-term care f facilities. Subsidized rentals are covered by five nonprofit housing providers, like the
Lanark County Housing Corporation, with a target of 75 rent supplement units in private market units.

The other stream is the slightly modified Housing Allowance Program, which is administered by the Ontario Ministry of Finance in which $200 is paid directly to the tenant. The client can receive the support for up to ffive years and it currently assists 46 clients. "Renters are struggling more than owners," Hollington said. The county also offers renovation help for essential home repairs, with 10year forgivable loans, which cover everything ffrom windows, doors, roof, ffurnace, insulation, to accessibility improvements. However, there is a maximum amount of $10,000 per applicant. There were 46 renovations completed in 2017, and 174 renovations completed since the program was begun. Different communities fface different demographic challenges, such as Smiths Falls, which continues to see population decline. The public forum heard that all municipalities in the county had seen some population increase from 2011 to 2016, with the exception of Smiths Falls, which saw a 2.2 per cent decline. All other communities saw increases from 1.5 to 9.4 per cent. The median household income by municipality also underscored different needs across the county. From $47,104 in Smiths Falls to $102.707 in Beckwith. Education was also a determinant when it came to housing challenges. The prevalence of the number of low-income people per municipality, as of 2016, also changes drastically in different parts of the county, however, "our unemployment rates are significantly lower" than those in Renfrew County or Leeds-Grenville, said Hollington.

band and father-in-law attended, said she hopes this strong bond will remain. "That will be the part I worry about," she said. Theresa said being the last principal at a school with such a long history in the community is an honour that comes with a bit of pressure. "You want to close it well," she said. "I love the kids, I love the community, and I love the families. We've got some hard-working people here and they are always willing to help out and give their best. The kids are pretty amazing." "It's crazy," said Maya Forbes, a Grade 8 student F part of St. Francis' last graduating class in its current location. Forbes' grandparents, like a lot of her fellow students, also attended the
same school. "It's strange because I've known this school for so long," she said. It's hard to go around town without coming across one of the school's many graduates. An attendance record ffound in the basement from 1918. - Evelyn Harford/Metroland Mayor Shawn Pankow even went to St. Francis. "It was a great school," said the mayor, who reflected on his time at the school in the 1970s. At only five years old, he would walk to school from his childhood home on Main Street and remembers the childhood antics the St. Francis played host to. Shawn recalled the time when a friend stuck his tongue to a metal pole or the challenge students would take on to scale all the way to
the roof of the gym on the climbing rope - a feat he conquered, as evidenced by his name inscribed on the ceiling as proof. But, while Shawn said it's sad to see the school close, with the new school opening in September it only means that St. Francis' legacy will shift to a new location. "Unfortunately, it's always had that asphalt jungle," he said. "It's time for g change." Shawn said the new school will allow families, once separated, to be together under one roof with improved facilities. The new school will be named St. Francis de Sales Catholic School, honouring the history of the parish. Father Rod McNeil will continue on with the new school in its fresh incarnation on Ross Street. St. Francis will be having
a farewell mass and reception on Sunday, May 6. Mass will start at 10:30 a.m., with the reception to follow at 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at St. Francis de Sales Catholic School located at 43 Russell St. E. Community members, past and present alumni, and friends are invited to drop in and tour the school where memorabilia items will be on display.
Through the years at St. Francis * In September 1914, the St. Francis de Sales Catholic School was opened. * In 1948, the church burned down so one of the classrooms, which had been used as a meeting room by the Knights of Columbus, was used as a chapel. * By 1954, the original school had reached capacity and a four-room addition needed to be built. * The first year to host Grade 9 at St. Francis was 1956. * In 1957, Hanley Memorial Hall was built to accommodate the growing student body, including the first Grade 10s. St. Francis provided Catholic education from kindergarten to Grade 12 in 1961.

'Circus Circus' comes to St. James in Smiths Falls for trio of performances DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland.com The audience roared its approval - and the actors roared back. On Thursday, April 26, St. James the Greater Catholic elementary school held three performances of the minimusical Circus Circus, with students in grades 1 to 3 playing lions, acrobats, clowns and other circus f folk. The first performance was held for the school in the morning, while feeder schools were treated to an afternoon performance, and a performance for parents and ffamilies were held that evening. The American musical was created by John Jacobson and John Higgins in 2000. The St. James production was produced by Grade 3 teacher Ms. Kristine Tait-Angel.

She will be in Rangers and her 11th year when she goes on the trip." At the jamboree, she will have the opportunity to meet and make friends with other Girl Guides and Girl Scouts from around the world. Together, the girls will share adventures like exploring and camping in the Blue Mountains World Heritage area, hiking and camping along the coastal beach, and climbing the Sydney Harbor Bridge. The Merrickville Guiding community and the Merrickville Trefoil Guild is helping Norlock raise money to support her trip to Australia by hosting a spaghetti dinner and silent auction on Saturday, May 12 from 5 - 7 p.m. at the Burritt's Rapids Community Centre.

(Above) Mourners gather at Smiths Falls' Veterans' Memorial Park on Saturday, April 28, the National Day of Mourning, pay respects to, and remember, the thousands of workers who have been killed, injured or suffered illness as a result of work-related incidents. (Above left) Deb Stead lays a flower at the memorial for her nephew, Luke MacIver, who died in a work-related incident five days into his first summer job in British Columbia when he was just 15 years old. Stead remembered him during the National Day of Mourning ceremony held in Smiths Falls.

he was found. MacIver isn't alone in what happened to him. "He is just one," she said. "Sadly, it continues." In 2016, 905 workplace deaths were recorded in Canada - among those dead were six young workers aged 15 to 19; and another 20 workers aged 20 to 24, according to the most recent statistics from the Association of Workers' Compensation Boards of Canada (AWCBC). Add to these fatalities the 241,508 claims accepted ffor lost time due to a workrelated injury or disease, including 29,588 from workers aged 15 to 24, and the ffact that these statistics only include what is reported and accepted by the compensation boards, and it is safe to say that the total number of workers impacted is even higher, according to the AWCBC. "What these numbers don't show is just how many people are directly affected by these workplace tragedies," says the organization. "Each worker death impacts the loved ones, families, friends and coworkers they leave behind, changing all of their lives forever." Names of those remembered: Joe Drummond,
Ronald Craig, Robert David Rodford, Robert Campbell, Gordon Leggett, G. Ritchie Stanzel, David Lemay, Ste-

f fold a piece of equipment known as a stacker at Woods Quarry just off W Highway 29 when it collapsed on his chest. The stacker, a conveyor-like piece of machinery, is used in rock crushing. A jury ruled his death accidental in May of 2015. Ceili Drummond was in attendance at the 3 p.m. ceremony in Smiths Falls to remember her late husband's death. At the time of Drummond's death, their sons Riley and Colton were just ffour and one. Drummond was son-inlaw to Ted Joynt, water wastewater operations superintendent at the Town of Smiths Falls, who has not only experienced loss from a workplace related incident as a family member but as a co-worker too. Joynt was in attendance at the Day of Mourning remembering not only his son-in-law but also a former co-worker, Gordon Leggett. Leggett died in 2008 while working at the old water treatment plant. According to reports at the time, Leggett, 58, was working on the night shift at the facility. Smiths Falls police reported that Leggett was operating a large industrial drill to operate a gate controlling the flow ffrom water storage tanks when he became pinned against the wall by the drill handle and was unable to ffree himself. "As a supervisor, it was a shock," said Joynt of his coworker's death. "I've seen it
f from both sides, the management side and the family side," he said. Joynt said the incident has stayed with those who work at the plant. "You never really forget it," he said. Joynt said since that time, workplace safety has improved. For those who are left beF hind, any name added to the list of those lost in workplace-related incidents is one too many. Deb Stead laid a flower at the memorial for her nephew, Luke MacIver, who died in a work-related incident in 1995; five days into his first summer job in British Columbia when he was just 15 years old, making him one of the youngest people to die in a workplace-related incident in that province. MacIver was sorting cardboard at Wastech Services, a Coquitlam recycling plant, and was crushed under a pile of garbage. Stead said she believes a truck had pulled fforward to stabilize its load and when it backed up, the garbage buried him. "His windpipe was crushed," she said. Stead said her nephew was missing for about an hour before

For the Rideau Lakes ATV club, F getting Smiths Falls council to approve a trail linkage through town is the last piece of the puzzle to connect the club's trail in Rideau Lakes to the Ottawa Valley Recreation Trail. Rick Gilfillen, president of the Rideau Lakes ATV Club, rehashed the plans before council on Monday, April 23. This is the second delegation for Gilfillen, who presented before council last spring. Currently, the ATV club's trail starts on Progression Drive, just outside of Smiths Falls, behind Smiths Equipment Centre.

Smiths Falls, located at Sturgess Road in Montague Township, R which will allow riders to also acw cess amenities and attractions in town. The OVRT stretches over 296 kilometers from Montague to Mattawa. Gilfillen said he'd like to get approval so that ATVers would be able to access the OVRT this fall, when the trail is expected to open. The proposed trail route through Smiths Falls is about two kilometres beginning on Broadview Avenue West in the south west of town, up Harold Street, onto Ferrera Drive behind the Canadian Tire and Independent, with a loop on Fergusson Drive, a piece on Alfred Street, up Abbott Street, onto Parks Canada land, connecting to William Street and then connecting to Highway 43 where the trail will continue into Drummond/ North Elmsley Township. A number of Harold Street residents are not happy with this plan, expressing concern that allowing ATVs on their street would only exacerbate concerns about heavy traffic volumes, speeding and noise. "Harold Street has turned out to be a nightmare," said Judith Wallace, a resident who lives adjacent to Harold Street. While the town had put in traffic calming measures including speed humps, crosswalk and an all-way stop last year, Wallace said little has changed and adding ATVs into the mix would only make things worse ffor residents. "It's really the last thing this community needs," she said. Wallace said members of her W neighbourhood, many of whom are seniors, moved to the subdivision in the south of town because they wanted a quiet place to enjoy retirement. But, the increase in traffic and the continued noise and nuisance of drivers - including large trucks - using the road as a thoroughfare have made things unbearable for some, they say. "Another major concern should be the dangers raised by mixing ATVs with other traffic and pedestrians," said resident Dave Thornley. Thornley said he also believes the Smiths Falls Police Service should be consulted about this plan. Gilfillen acknowledged the concerns that residents have and assured them that the ATVers who would be using the trail have to abide by certain restrictions, including a speed limit of 20 km/h if the posted speed limit is 50 km/h like on Harold Street. He reported that riders can only ride during the day - sun up to sun down - and would only be accessible for Onta-
rio Federation of All Terrain Vehicle Clubs permit holders who have the proper licensing and insurance. He also emphasized for council the potential positive economic impact that the linkage could bring through tourism. Gilfillen said this route is currently the only way for ATVs to connect to the OVRT from Rideau Lakes Township. Gilfillen said he's tried to access the Cataraqui Trail as an alternative to the proposed route but the board was not supportive. Council members and town staff said this is an avenue that could be revisited to see if any accommodations could be made. If the route included the Cataraqui Trail, it would eliminate the need to travel on Harold Street, which is a concern for many who w live in the neighbourhood. Coun. Dawn Quinn, who sits on the Cataraqui Trail board, suggested the town should come as a delegation along with Gilfillen to make their case. While Coun. Lorraine Allen appreciated concerns from residents worried about potential noise, she also sees the value in what ATVing could bring to town. "I like win-wins," she said. Coun. Jay Brennan, along with others on council said he supports the Rideau Lakes ATV club's initiative but wanted a staff report to come back assessing what guidelines other municipalities have, and what routes town staff could sugw gest. Under the Ontario Highway Traffic Act, municipalities can regulate the use of ATVs on roads within their municipality with the creation of a bylaw. In the absence of a bylaw, no ATV access to roads is permitted. Mississippi Mills has had its own controversy surrounding the use of ATVs in the Town of Almonte. There has been vocal opposition in town. A few bypasses for ATVs to go around the Town of Almonte to connect to the OVRT were presented, but none have been approved. A staff report will be brought back to council fleshing out the options Smiths Falls has with respect to ATV access through town, which may include recommendations for public consultation. "I'm an advocate of public consultation," said Troy Dunlop, Smiths Falls' director of public works and utilities. "There are stakeholders involved." Dunlop said there are many things to consider before moving ahead, including environmental considerations in the west end of town.

During National Engineering Month in March, volunteer professional engiv neers from the Thousand Islands Chapter of Professional Engineers Ontario, working in conjunction with dedicated teachers in the Upper Canada District School Board, challenged students in Lanark, Leeds and Grenville to build bridges using 100 popsicle sticks and white g glue. BUSTER!, the machine that helps the students test the strength of their bridges, was busy at 11 in-school competitions. Seventy-four students in 27 teams from nine schools in Athens, Lansdowne, Brockville, Kemptville, Perth and Smiths Falls took up the challenge. This year, 1,173 students from Grade 1 through 8 built 462 team bridges.

Montague angler offers sport fishing trips for Canadian heroes LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com It doesn't matter if you've fought in a war, rescued a dog from the ice, or a cat from a house fire you're a hero to many. For those Canadian heroes, local angler Scott Thibeault of Montague Township is offering a fishing trip to say thanks. And to help pay for those outings, which can cost up to $150 each, (gas ffor his 17-foot Ranger fishing boat with 115/hp motor, bait, rod/reel incidentals), he's offering a little piece of himself in the form of prints. The acrylic artist will offer for sale prints of these original paintings, framed or non-framed, to help with those costs. He's been offering fishing trips to local heroes for the past four years now and has taken out about a dozen anglers. "People suffer from post traumatic stress disorder,
and I like to be able to offer them a chance to go fishing," Thibeault said. "It's great to get out and relax ffor a bit." Guests will be asked to bring their own lunch. It's a catch-and-release ffishing trip, and depending on the person being escorted, times and bodies of water are up for discussion. "We could go anywhere around here," Thibeault said. "There are so many lakes - it was one of the reasons why my wife and I decided to move here from Kemptville." Thibeault has been helping those less fortunate for a number of years. It started not so long ago by handing out blankets to the homeless in Ottawa. He was also employed as a children's aid worker for a number of years, and "seen it all . too much for anyone." As a young boy to a military father, Thibeault travelled around the world with his family. His pas-
sion for giving is inspired by those closest to him. Thibeault lived to tell about breaking his neck when he fell down a flight of stairs more than a dozen years ago. Since that time, he developed the hobby of painting - learned through trial and error and by watching Bob Ross, "the happy little painter" on television. Thibeault is also a wood carver and has been creating walking sticks for kids. He also enjoys music and has several rock/folk songs, which you can listen to online at ReverbNation. Offering Canadian heroes a chance to go fishing through his charity, Thibeault offers a free day of ffishing to firefighters, police officers, those in the military, or anyone in general who may be a hero to you. If you would like to nominate someone, please let Thibeault know via email: s.thibeault@hotmail.com

HAWKINS, Ken – In loving memory of a special Dad and Grandpa who passed away May 3, 2001. The moment that you died, Our hearts split in two, One side filled with memories, The other died with you. We often lay awake at night, When the world is fast asleep, And take a walk down memory lane, With tears upon our cheeks. Remembering you is easy, We do it every day, But missing you is a heartache, That never goes away. We love and miss you so much. Love, Sue , Heather, Rob, Lisa, Michele and families

KENNETH EARL HAMILTON
September 18, 1938-December 29, 2017 Suddenly with his family by his side at the Smiths Falls General Hospital. Dear husband of Shirley. When I come to the end of the road, And the sun has set for me, I want no rites in a gloom-filled room, Why cry for a soul set free? Miss me a little while - but not too long, And not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared, Miss Me - But Let Me Go. For this journey that we all must take, And each must go alone. It’s all a part of the Master’s plan, A step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick at heart, Go to the friends we know. And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds, Miss Me - But Let Me Go Always loved and sadly missed Shirley Ken, Bob and Peggy Grandchildren: Chelsey, Rebecca, Taylor, Casey, Abgeal, Kristy, Jesse and Jacob. Ken Sr. will be fondly remember and missed by his many relatives and friends.

Remembering you can cause a smile, Always comfort these memories, They are so precious, And keep you ever near. Miss Me - But Let Me Go

W.O. (Retired) O.M.M. - C.D.2 C.A.F. (Reg/Res) Sunrise 10 March 1936 Sunset 24 April 2018 With sadness, the MacKinnon family wishes to announce the passing of Dan at the age of 82, after a lengthy illness. Dan is survived by his wife of 56 years Jackie, his son Mike (Diane Hammond) and his daughter Debbie (John Cooney).

He was born in a family of 12 children. Predeceased by 5 brothers Hector, Rev.

With the help of 5 of his friends Dan established the Army/Navy/Air Force Club CANAF BR#396, it was originally opened on Bridge Street, Carleton Place in 1987, and as a result he was the first elected president of that branch.

The pain we felt at losing you Will never go away, But knowing that You’re in our hearts Helps us through each day. When you were here we always felt That nothing could go wrong, But you’re still our inspiration And your memory keeps us strong. And although our hearts are heavy They are also full of love, And that’s enough to comfort us While you’re in Heaven above.

CRAWFORD – In fond and loving memory of the best husband and father in the world Orval Crawford who passed away May 3, 2003. You meant so much to all of us, You were special and that’s no lie. You brightened up the darkest day, And the cloudiest sky. Your smile alone warmed hearts, Your laugh was like music to hear. We would give absolutely anything, To have you standing here. When you suffered, you told few, You never deserved what you went through. Tired and weary you made no fuss, But tried so hard to stay with us. Not a second passes, When you’re not on our minds. Your love we will never forget, It was a special kind. Too dearly loved to ever be forgotten By his loving wife Dolly, four sons and their families.
Always remembered lovingly by: Husband John and family

MacKinnon, Daniel C.
November 1926-March 2018 My wife Yvonne and I were friends and lovers for some 75 years. We were born in the East end of Toronto and met at Riverdale Collegiate. She went on to obtain a degree at the University of Toronto in Physical and Health Education while I graduated in Honour Science and eventually a Ph.D. in Zoology and Wild Life Biology from the University of British Columbia. Yvonne began her professional career at Neighbourhood House in Toronto where all kinds of social programs were offered to people who lived in the so called “Cabbage Town” and beyond part of the city. In 1950, Jim and Yvonne were married and moved to Vancouver where Jim began his graduate work and Yvonne continued her social work at the Chinese YWCA. After a few years Yvonne decided she wanted children and became a full time mother and head of house and home. Jim gave full support and enjoyed the great benefits of a good home, children, and a happily married life. Children in order of origin were Jennifer, Robyn, Sarah, Leah and John. All eventually married and continued the line through 11 grand and 3 great grandchildren. All are doing well and now include a medical doctor, professor, journalist, teacher, mother, forester and miner. While a mother first she was also an activist and helper. She saw the need for parks and green spaces where nature could flourish despite the crush of urban pressure. Best example was the saving of Rattray Marsh and surrounding forest as a conservation area by her and many other Mississaugans. As a helper, she spent many hours in the field gathering data often amidst black flies and other discomforts. Few tasks were ignored if her help was needed. Because Jim chose an academic career of teaching and research in animal ecology this took him and the family to opportunities in Kingston, Vancouver, Toronto and nearby study areas. Whenever possible the children and some friends went along to make a summer adventure, school, and source of fly bites and ravenous wild carnivores. Despite the dangers, all learned much, survived, and wanted to do it again. Now, much time is passed and expired. Birth, growth, and accomplishment are preludes to death and we all must die. But before that we see the joy and opportunity of the young as in Yvonne. She has lived to the full and has resulted in doctors that use robot surgery, writers that report on the life of Mandela, Professors that warn of the pollution of oceans by plastics, children that produce great grand children, and so it goes. Goodbye my dearest! You are an outstanding example, an inspiration, and have made a much better earth. Thanks to all who have helped make Yvonne’s passing comfortable and with love.
HARPER - In loving memory of Raymond H. Harper who passed away May 4th, 2013. Life is not the same without you. Your memory is a keepsake, From which we’ll never part. God has you in His arms, We have you in our heart. Missing you always Your loving Bonnie and Family Grandsons Jacob and Tobias xoxo
