DEARPEOPLEOFBRUSSELS
During our stay in Brussels,
we experienced that this small
town is full of friendly people -
the ladies in the post office, the
local merchants, the teachers,
Reverends Jamieson and Zehr,
the gang from the coffee shop
and last but not least, our dear
neighbours.
We especially appreciated
your thoughtfulness during our
time of sorrow. While in
Brussels, we have made many
new friends. Gerald wishes his
teachers, classmates and hoc
key mates along with the
coaches all the best.
In May, we will be moving to
Listowel, but we will always
cherish the good times had in
Brussels. Our new address in
Listowel will be 795 John Street
West where you will always be
welcome. Wishing you all the
very best,
Sincerely,
Joe, Jean and Gerald de Vries
this meeting. Without new offi- of the
cers, Branch #218, Brussels may
no longer be a Branch. Being a
member of a Legion Branch has
some obligations as well as
privileges. Attending meetings is
one such obligation. Without you
there is no Branch. The choice is
yours!
