thing you will fall for anything.

aged people. In middle age often

On Tuesday, October 29th,
1991, at the candidates
meeting, while thanking
Council and Ratepayers, I
failed to thank our staff that
work with the Village of
Blyth. I wish to apologize for
not remembering to express
my thanks and appreciation
for work well done.
To Clerk-Treasurer, Admin
istrator Helen Grubb and
Secretary Julie Young, our
two office staff, thanks for all
the times I efficiently and
pleasantly got the com
munication and documen
tation I needed to do my job
as Reeve. John Rinn and Bill
Bromley service their
foremanship jobs well and as
a result, of all our staff the
Village is managed day to
day the best it ever was.
We were pleased with our
summer help and part-time
staff this year as well.
A well deserved "Thanks".
Your Reeve
