DICKSON In loving memory of our Papa, Don Dickson, October 30, 1951 - July 15, 2008. He wasn't a hero known to the world, But a hero he was to this boy and girl. We knew his voice before we could speak, And loved it when he would sing us to sleep. He taught us life's lessons of right from wrong, And instilled in us values so that we might be strong. And so through the years like a hero he stood, Working to give all that he could. 1 still needed you here, You were the one to make everything so clear. You are a part of me and I am a part of you, When you died a part of me died too. 1 never knew how hard it was to lose someone you love, Until the day you went to heaven above. Even though 1 can't see, I know you're up there watching over me. I miss you more and more every day, And all I can do is pray. In my heart you shall forever remain. Forever loved and missed, Jan. 29x Lovingly remembered by his wife Noone; children, Laurie and Chris, Bill and Brenda, Paul, Gerry and Cathy, Todd, Rod and Melanie and families. —29 JIM MARTIN July 4, 2008.

The string school began as Central Huron String School in the fall of 1984 with about 20 student , members. Centtal Huron String School originally served only the Clinton and Seaforth areas with Elayne Ras and Dave Stelpstra as teach- ers. It expanded to Goderich in 1985 when The Bluewater String School was formed. Eventually Elayne moved to Goderich in 1988 and amalgamated the two schools into the Huron Sting School. Now the di- rector, Elayne has been joined in previous years by commuting apprentice teachers, and currently she's joined by Jo -Ann Ras, a music and movement and theory special- ist. The program now serves students from all over Huron County ranging in age from three to adult, studying violin, viola and cello. Elayne Ras began Suzuki Violin les- sons at the age of eleven at the first Suzuki school in Toronto, after studying piano with her mother since the age of five. She attended the University of Western On- tario and received her Hon.BMus (perfor- mance) and her BA in Psychology. In 2002, Elayne became a registered violin teacher trainer (one of only seven in Canada) with the Suzuki Association of the Americas. she conducted the Goderich Laketown Band for 19 years, and is currently a mem- ber of the Stratford Symphony Orchestra. Currently living in Guelph, Elayne teaches part-time with the Suzuki String School of Guelph and commutes weekly to continue to teach the Huron String School's dedi- cated students. As part of the 25th anniversary celebra- tions, a piece was commissioned from composer Graham Kidd of Guelph. He attended the concert and watched as the students beautifully played the premier performance of "Twinkle Twinkle Huron Stars." All of the students received an au- tographed copy of the sheet music as part of the celebrations.
