Food available. Everyone Welcome November 13th Re-elect JOE SEILI NEW! Groups , Welcome PAGE 2. THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2006. "Come ye thankful people come ..." should be the song of choice this week as we finish the leftovers of Thanksgiving weekend. Family and friends attended church and gathered to share the favourite foods At the Branch of the season. I hope you took inventory of your many blessings. We live in a bountiful land and need to give thanks daily for good food, clean water and a healthy environment that we generally take for granted. As we look at the basics of life we need to do our part to sustain and improve them for the next generation. To keep our place on this earth healthy we need to support local agriculture keeping travel fumes down and taste up. We can be deliberate in our use of water with awareness for the impact on others. Drink water from the taps; it's probably cleaner than the bottled variety and is much better for the landfill sites. Also, it will add a little money to your wallet. When using your vehicle, idling is no longer good practice for the motor or the air around us. Be a good customer of the thrift shop and reuse and recycle everything you can. Every little thing each one of us does helps. We live in one world with many people and the resources that matter most are the ones that have no boundaries. So be good to yourself and watch what you do. We have another little angel looking out for us from heaven now. God needed a sweet smiling boy and Ian VanderMeer went reluctantly last Saturday. Ian knew he had a good thing here with parents Patty and Jason, siblings Tyler and Julia and grandparents John and Julie Harrison, Aunt Katie and Uncle Tim as well as lots of loving cousins and friends. His twinkling smile will be a pleasant memory to hold when sadness wants to take over. Death, a part of life, has profound feelings that go with it. Be aware of the hurting in others in our midst and offer your support as freely as you are able. Get out and give the leaves a kick. You may just feel better. Bye now, Betty G.W.
