He is excited about being there and is staying in a home. We are all excited about this opportunity for Ryan and wish him well in his schooling and training. Sadness has hit the village of Walton with the news of the passing of Wayne Williamson. He will be missed by his wife Linda and his daughters and Brandi and Hope and their families. Wayne was an employee of Hensall Co-op for many years and enjoyed a quiet family life. Our condolences to all. It is official. The Walton Inn is now being operated by new owner Brian Scainni. A friendly fellow and a Maple Leaf/Blue Jay fan, he only plans a few changes at the restaurant. Staff will remain the same with Marlene, Jacquie and Leigha handling the weekday routines. Hopefully we will run into him again soon! Our sympathies are extended to the Haggitt family on the passing of Susan Haggitt. She will be missed by her husband Gord and her children Chad, Michael and Leanne and their families. We extend our condolences to the extended Thompson and Haggitt families. Karen Hoegy has had company this week with daughter Sherry and husband Eric and son Fletcher here for a visit and wedding. It was only for five days, but they were busy days. It was the occasion of the marriage of grandson and nephew Justin Hoegy to Nicole. The wedding was on Saturday in London at Windemere Manor and was absolutely lovely. Little Fletcher Delay was ringbearer and at the age of four, did an excellent job. Justin is the son of Darryl and Ruthann Hoegy. The newlyweds will reside in London. Congratulations to all. The Walton Raceway held its final open practise weekend at the track. They had a great turnout of riders wanting that last chance to run on one of the finest tracks in Ontario.

The site will also offer walk-in flu shots, compression stockings and, by appointment, travel vaccinations, a service that Banjoko says is unique for residents living in the area. He said the travel clinic is a service offered in Stratford and will be available in Brussels, making it the second location in the region to offer the service. Banjoko also said the Brussels site may expand in the future, saying that there is that option in the current building. For current customers of the pharmacy, little should change. Prescriptions will be maintained in the system and all the changes should only enhance the good experiences customers have had at the site.

However, I am totally disgusted by the frenzy the media has stirred up about Justin’s “brown face” make-up when he was roleplaying during a themed event all those years ago. I am certain it was never Justin’s intent to disrespect any segment of society or be racist. It repulses me to listen to the diatribe, in this respect, coming from Jagmeet Singh and Andrew Scheer – tsk, tsk – get over yourselves. There is a host of credible issues up for discussion on the airways and in the print media in these pre-election days on which to focus. And the media is choosing this? We need help. Somewhere it is written that, “imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.” So be it! Carol A.
