Andrew and Mark Gibson: and

ed by one son Glen, his parents/
Robert J. and Margaret Hoover,
two brothers and two sisters.
A Masonic service was held
Sunday evening and the regular
funeral service was conducted on
March 27, 1989 at the Watts
Funeral Home in Brussels. Rever
end Charles Carpentier officiated.
Interment was in Brussels Ceme
tery.
Easter lilies, mums and hydran
geas, placed in memory of loved
ones, decorated the front of Blyth
United Church for the Sunday
morning Easter service.
Greeters were members of the
Sunday School: Julie McNichol,
Christine Caldwell and Cathy Fra
ser. The Junior choir sang “Have a
Good Easter Day’’. The scripture
reading was taken from Matthew
28 (1-10). The senior choir’s an
them was “There’s a Green Hill
Faraway”.
During the offering, the combin
ed senior and intermediate choirs
sang “Alleluhia” and “Alleluhia
Give Thanks”. Ushers were
Michael Ansley, Michael Haggitt,
Corey Shannon and Jason Badley.
The title of the sermon was
“Christ’s Resurrection - Our As
surance of Hope”. Rev. Ramirez
told of a Sunday School teacher in
search of a picture, a visual aid, to
help relate the message of Easter
morning to her class. Since all she
could find was a picture of Jesus on
the cross, she became dismayed
knowing that this was not the final
picture. The empty tomb with the
stone rolled away reveals the real
message of Easter. It symbolized
Jesus opening the door of new hope
and life that we might enter in.
By his resurrection, he took away
the stone of hatred so that we can
live harmoniously. His resurrection
is a seal, our guarantee, our
assurance that life is not just here
but hereafter. Let us this spring as
we look around the dismal country
side look beyond and see the signs
of new life in the budding crocus
and tulips and know that out of
chaos order will come. Many of us
fear death and suffering but re
member, after death comes our
new home - a new life.
A basket of seeds was presented
from the Sunday School by Pauline
Stewart and Tina Burkholder and
were distributed to the congrega
tion by Gr. 2 class following the
service.
DST starts Sunday
It is once again time to spring
forward! On Sunday, April 2, 1989
at 2 a.m. we will return to Daylight
Savings Time, so remember to
move your clocks forward one hour.
This is the second year that
Daylight Savings Time has begun
on the first Sunday in April instead
of the latter part of the month. This
was done in the hopes that it would
cut the cost of hydro and give us
more spring and summer to enjoy.
So remember it’s one hour
forward. You don’t want to be late
for church.
