"I am very grateful to the people
of Grey Twp. for the opportunity I
have been given to serve my com-
munity and my county. Over the
past 10 years I have run in two
elections for the position of Reeve.
Over the years I have been fortu-
nate to have good councils and staff
to work with."
Armstrong has represented Grey
Twp. on the Maitland Valley Con-
servation Authority, including two
years as vice-chair of the Finance
and Administration Committee and
two years as its chair. She has also
served some time on the local
recreation, hall and cemetery
boards and the police committee.

anniversary
Knox Presbyterian congregation,
Cranbrook, celebrated Anniversary
Sunday on Oct. 22. A warm
welcome was extended to Rev.
John Congram, guest speaker, and
Bob Heywood, singer and
musician. The service was followed
by fellowship and light lunch.
There will be no service in
Cranbrook next Sunday as
anniversary Sunday will be
celebrated with Monk ton
congregation.
An open house in Cranbrook on
Saturday, Oct. 21 was held by Fron
Reilly and Kim Yuzw a.
Handcrafted clocks and jewellery
were displayed. Many visitors and
neighbours attended. The success
of this event has encouraged Fron
and Kim to consider making this an
annual occasion.
The Cranbrook Community Hall
exterior has been painted. The Hall
Board would like to thank all those
who participated in fundraising
over the summer months. This
project was made possible by your
contributions and generous
donations.
Those who volunteered on the
paint committee will be called upon
soon to finish up the exterior trim
and to discuss interior painting.
Euchre card parties begin Friday,
Nov. 3 at 8:30 p.m. Everyone is
welcome.

ily has experienced three weddings,
one divorce and gained four lovely
grandchildren, Brittany, Andrew,
Brandon and Morgan. Two of their
sons and their families have moved
back to enjoy life in Huron County.
This month they will be proudly
attending their daughter's gradua-
tion at the University of Western
Ontario. She will be receiving her
Master of Clinical Science Degree

Every summer the family volun-
teers at the world's largest Fly-In at
oshkosh, Wisconsin where Arm-
strong and her husband, Jim are co-
chairman of the Classic Division.
They have been on several enjoy-
able ski trips, the greatest of all ski-
ing at Whistler, B.C.
They will never forget the won-
derful 40th anniversary celebration
their family held for them in
August, 1994 which brought their
many relatives and friends together.
"With all the cutbacks and down-
loading, the years ahead will be
even more challenging than ever
before. We must all have a vision
as to what we need, not what we
want. It is my goal to work in part-
nerships to find ways of doing busi-
ness that will save taxpayers money
and yet not lower our quality of
service."
On behalf of Grey Township I
wish to congratulate The Citizen on
this their 10th anniversary for pro-
viding this community with such an
excellent weekly newspaper and for
giving me the opportunity to reflect
on my past ten years.
The Past gives us experience and
memories
The Present gives challenges and
opportunities
The Future gives us vision and
hope.
In Brussels, a citizen who had
given much of his time to the com-
munity, and continued to do so for
another eight years, was honoured.
Howard Bernard, fire chief,
received recognition for his 25
years of service to the department.
Bernard retired in 1993.
Aside from his numerous duties
as fire chief over the years, Bernard
has stayed in the trucking business,
now driving for Foxton Fuels after
running his own fuel distribution
business 10 years ago.
