HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Citizen, 2007-06-14, Page 22PAGE 22. THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, JUNE 14, 2007.A student at F.E. Madill SecondarySchool and former Brussels resident
was the recipient of a prestigious
scholarship presented recently in
Toronto.
Aaron Richmond received the
Future Aces Foundation award from
Herb Carnegie. He was selected for
the honour based on his contribution
to his community, school
involvement and academics.
Rita Rice Bowers represented
Madill in presenting the award to
Richmond, who will be attending
Redeemer University in Ancaster
this September.
It was due to discimination that
Carnegie, 87, devoted his life to
activating change in communities for
all young people. As a star hockey
player in the 1940s, Carnegie played
semi-professional hockey with the
Sherbrooke Saints and was three
times voted the most valuable player.
However, his ambition to become
a professional was not fulfilled as the
unwritten code of the National
Hockey League denied Carnegie a
tryout in the NHL due to his race.
He went on to become the founder
of the first hockey school in Canada
and continues to sponsor many
leadership events.
Well done
Herb Carnegie presented his Aces Award to former
Brussels resident Aaron Richmond in Toronto recently.
Richmond, who will be attending Redeemer University in
Ancaster this September is graduating from F.E. Madill
Secondary School. He received the award based on his
contribution to community, school involvement and
academics. (Photo submitted)

A meeting of the church board
was held on June 27, 1924. It as
presided over by Rev. P. Banes with
Samuel Cox as secretary.
The deed of the property was
transferred to the cemetery plot
holders.
The first memorial service was
held on July 31, 1927. It is held
annually since, usually on the first
Sunday in July.
“Ball’s Cemetery board is very
pleased with how well it has been
kept over the years as it remains a
private cemetery,” said Daryl Ball.
“The cemetery requires private
donations to keep it looking good for
generations to come.”
Monies come from donations and
memorials. All donations of $1,000
or more will be recognized on a
plaque in the church.
Ball’s Church was used recently
for a baptism and a funeral.
Requests to use the church may be
made directed to the board.
