It was Dove at first sight

Elizabeth was a teacher
and when she began teach-
ing in Hope Bay; she need-
ed a place to stay.
"The woman who usu-
ally boarded the teachers
wasn't doing that anymore,
so. I was told that Mrs
Dickie (Ira's mother)'
might , do' it," said
Elizabeth. "And she did."
Ira and Elizabeth were
married on Sept. 19, 1942
at the South Kinloss
Presbyterian Church and
traveled to the east coast
for their honeymoon.
"We couldn't go too far
because of the war And
because gas was rationed,"
said Ira.
During World War I1,
Ira worked in.
C9llingwood.. building
Mosiquto bombers. He .has
also worked at a Canadian
Tire in Toronto, owned a
nixed farm in the area and
was a machinist at
Champion Road Graders.
Elizabeth, has been a
teacher, working at rural
schools all over Ontario.
Ira's hobby now is
woodworking and helping
one of their sons on the
farm..During the winter,
they ,travel to Florida with'
a trailer and stay at several
-different campsites while
they are there.
The Dickies have four
sons, who are all married,
and have nine grandchil-
dren.
Their oldest son,
Denver and his wife
Brenda have two children.
Next in line is Douglas
and his wife Donna and
they have three children.
Second youngest is. Walter
and his wife Janet `and 'are
parents to two kids.
'William is the youngest
son and his wife irene and
• they have two children.
