The Sept. 4 ceremony took place at St. John's Anglican Church in Sarnia, birthplace of both the bride and the groom, with Rev. Blackwell. officiating. Parents of the bridal couple were Elva and James Stewart and Thomas Andrew and Iola Beatrice Bailey. Attendants for the bride were her cousin Elizabeth Kennedy and Isabel Stewart, the bride's six-year- old sister was flowergirl. Standing up with the groom were his brother Jim Bailey, the bride's brother Charles Stewart and a cousin Glen Thomson. Following the ceremony the couple honeymooned in Toronto. The children brought the baskets of food to the front for the Food Bank. The children's hymn was Jesus Bids Us Shine. 011ie Craig told the children the story of Billie Beaver and how he saved Thumper's burrow from flooding by dropping a tree in the waters' way. They resided in Sarnia for a time before moving to Blyth. A former reeve of Blyth, Bailey was a well-known businessperson in both the local community and Clinton. He served 40 years in elected positions from school board to farm organizations and in municipal politics. His wife has kept the homefires burning through the years. The couple had seven children, Larry, Val, Mavis, Danny, Bonnie, Clifford and Tom. The family has grown to include many grandchildren and great- grandchildren. Cheryl Cronin and Avon Corneil favoured the congregation with a duet, Whispering Hope. Bodie Craig read the Psalm 150 and David Onn led the responsive Ten Commandments with everyone singing the refrain. The choir sang the anthem Father Almighty. 011ie Craig read a sermon borrowed from one of Rev. Eugen Bannerman's sermons, For the Joy of Music. Music is a gift from God. There is no reference in the Bible that Jesus had any musical talents. Music bonds people together as the song Elton John sang Candle in the Wind at Princess Diana's funeral. Bach composed many of the hymns today. Jesus may not have had any musical talents but there are many songs written about him. - beautiful chrysanthemums and asters in small, medium and large pots - ornamental kale and cabbage - icicle pansies - mixed fall outdoor arrangements - perennials - pumpkins Now available at ($014:44, 83189 Scott Line 519-523-9456 Open daily, closed Sundays Milestone Mason and Hazel Bailey of Blyth celebrated 60 years of marriage with an open house at their home this past weekend.
