Commitment needed before.
Phase II can proceed
• from page 1
Bill Hunter, of the Lions Club,
and McDonagh reported that the
Town of Thornbury constructed ' a
new arena facility last year. Based
on the breakdown of construction
costs, it was estimated that their
new ice surface, seating, exterior
shell etc., waa s$700,000 to
$800,000 expense. It was also noted
that their ice surface was slightly
larger than what was proposed in
Phase II.
McDonagh stated that it may be
•possible to salvage some items from
the, existing ice surface and shell
and that he expected to see a good
commitment of volunteer labor to
help lower, the overall costs.
Allan McDougall, Lions member
and McDonagh indicated that the
service clubs would need the
$400,000 commitment from the
four contributing municipalities in
order to proceed with their support.
They estimated that the remainder
of the costs may be within their
fund-raising capacity, hoping that
all local organizations and groups
would contribute as much as pos-
sible.
Ashfield Township's Reeve Allan
Gibson, acting as chairman of the.
meeting, indicated it was necessary
to determine, as soon as possible, if
the project is to proceeg.
Municipalities are in the process of
setting budgets and will need to
know how to allocate their
infrastructure funds if they should°
choose to use them toward this
project. Also the service clubs are
to the planning stages for their
fund-raising events for the up-
coming year.
Representatives of the
municipalities and service clubs
agreed that all groups would report'
back on , Apr. 6 before more.
detailed cost estimates are obtained.
Various areas • trimmed
• from page 1
The administration budget was
trimmed 10.9 per cent., partly be-
cause of reduced interest costs and
debt load.
The library was denied funding
for computer updating or a return to
normal operating hours.
The planning department lost the
Port Elgin sub -office, along with
one planner and one office staff, for
a 19.6 per cent budget cut.
The waste 'management commit-
tee will be doing less public liaison
and promotion of the 3R's thanks to.
a 26 per cent cut, while Tourism
and Agriculture . spending was
trimmed 11.5 per cent including a
fivePe r cent cut to all grants that
department normally awards.
There will be 16 per cent less
- money going into reserve funds this
year.
Among the financial bonuses
Bruce County has in 1994 are in-
creased rent from the old county
building complex in Walkerton,
$125,000 from the sale of iand in
Amabel Township to the board of
education and enough money in
reserves to meet the local share for
federal -provincial infrastructure
grants.
The county will decide next
month what projects will be eligible
for that funding.
Elmer was a true friend
• from page 1.
time the business was established in
the village. As manager of the
store, Mr. Kretitzwieser says their
relationship grew to where they
considered each other family.
"It was a privilege to work with
him," says Mr. Kreutzwieser. "He
was a true, true friend; a man who
never held a grudge. You never had
to shake hands with Elmer, his
word was his word."
"If you cannot do . great things,
you can do small things in a great
way," was penned by Mr. Umbach,
just prior to - his death. Mr.
Kreutzwieser says these words
reflected Mr. Umbach's positive
outlook on life.
Music was one of Mr: Umbach's
passions. "He started taking piano
lessons when he was 27," says Mr.
Kreutzwieser. "He had a natural
ability and went through his grades
fast."
This' musical talent was shared
over the years with many or-
ganizations. For 10 years he played
at the Lucknow United Church, and
was a faithful visitor at Pinecrest
Nursing Home to entertain the
residents. Until recently, Mr. Um-
bach was the pianist/organist at his
place of worship, the Bible
Methodist Church, Goderich, where
he was also a Bible .class teacher
for the last few years.
As an honorary member of the
Lucknow and District Horticultural
Society, Mr. Umbach was always
available to entertain. One member,
Jean .Whitby, remembers Mr. Um-
bach as "a very generous man in
many ways. He sponsored annual
dinners for the .members and was
always willing to share his love of
music by playing the piano at our
teas or any other activities."
Mr. Umbach was a multi -faceted
person.
"Elmer was an eccentric man,
funny and extremely kind," says
Brenda Pawliw, the present in-
hduse pharmacist at Umbach's. "I
remember when I first came here
and was apprenticing. He helped me
learn about the people and helped
me over the rough spots. I feel
extremely fortunate to have worked
with a gem like Elmer."
' Ms. Pawliw also commented on
Mr. Umbach's musical talents,
saying, "We'll definitely miss the
sound of Elmer playing the organ in
his upstairs apartment.".
. A humble man, Mr, •Umbach .was
loath to reveal his generous and
kind-hearted soul. As he marked his
40th business anniversary, all , he
would say was that his career as a
' pharmacist had been "rewarding,
fulfilling, and interesting. I have
come to know the finest bunch of
folks and I love them all."
"
Businessman"Richard Askes will
remember Elmer as a man "who
helped a lot of individuals on a.
one-to-one basis with thestruggle
of life."
He too says "Elmer was .a man
who took a stand on what he
believed; however, if you didn't
agree with him, he would always
listen patiently to your view point.
He will truly be missed."
In earlier years, Mr. Umbach was
a Boy Scout leader. For ashort
period, until his health wouldn't
permit it, he volunteered with the
Meals on Wheels program.
In addition to' his dear friends,
Anna and John Kreutzwieser, Mr.
Umbach is survived by two
brothers, Lorne and Harold of
Kitchener, several nephews, nieces,
great nephews and great nieces.
He was predeceased by • his
parents Emil and Lydia (Musse-
lman) Umbach; ,three brothers,
Elton, Milton and Lloyd, and a
sister Reta Straus. -
The funeral was held at the
MacKenzie and McCreath Funeral
Home, Lucknow, on Mar. 24, with
Rev. G. Clair Sams, assisted by
Rev. Carl Johnson and Rev. Charlie
Byer, officiating. •
• Three tributes revealed the high
esteem in which Mr. Umbach was
held. The Drudge family, and R1ev.
and Mrs. Blake Jones performed
musical selections during the ser-
vice.
Pallbearers were Bart Straus,
Gregg Kulchecki, David Straus,
Layne Kulchecki, Brent Strub and
Lile Strub.
Interment took place Mar. 25 at
Woodland Cemetery, Kitchener,
