house as a drop-in centre for the
neighborhood children.
"There were always kids around it
seems," says Ellen fondly. "I still have a
drawer full of toys for kids who drop
over."
The kids who drop in now include four
grandchildren and one great-grandson and
while Ellen says the winters seem much
longer now that the children have moved
away, she will always have a soft spot in
her heart for the children she has tended
over the years.
The Ritchies celebrated 50 years of
maritial bliss with about 40 friends and
relatives over the weekend at a special
ceremony held at the Anglican Parish
Hall. The day brought' back a lot of
memories for Ellen and Alfred but one
thing is certain, they wouldn't change one
day of the last 50 years.
"It sure has been interesting," says
Ellen of her marriage, "but. we wouldn't
have it any other way. Even if we had a
million dollars we wouldn't have lived
anywhere else."
Congratulations to the Ritchies and
here's to the next 50 years of a happy
marriage.
