WILLERT (EVANS)
In memory of a loving mother and grand-
mother, Gladys, who passed away November
30, 2006.
Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed, and very dear.
Forever in our hearts, Pat, Don, Ryan, Amy,
and Pamela. -48x
GERTRUDE E. HILL

In loving memory of a dear husband, father
and grandfather, Sam, who passed away
November 30, 1994.
There is a bridge of memories,
From here to Heaven above,
That keeps you close to us,
It's called the "bridge of love ".
As time goes by without you,
And days turn into years,
They hold a million memories,
A thousand silent tears.
Just a prayer from those who loved you,
Just a memory fond and true,
In our hearts you live forever,
For we thought the world of you.
Sadly missed Phyllis and family. -48
STEWART
In loving memory of a dear husband, father
and grandfather, Melvin Gardner Stewart, who
passed away 23 years ago, November 22,
1986.
It's lonely here without you,
We miss you more each day,
Life is not the same for us,
Since you were called away.
If we could have one lifetime wish,
One dream that would come true,
We'd pray to God with all our heat ts,
For yesterday, and you.
Lovingly remembered and forever missed by
wife Clara and family. -48x

And the memories
will last forever.
Lovingly remem-
bered by husband Ken, family and friends.

Bauer is wishing for snow
Good afternoon everyone. I have my pret-
ty pink flowered cup at my side filled to the
brim with steaming black 'gold'. Aha, perfec-
tion. Cozy up everyone, it's time for our fort-
nightly visit. We have been pretty lucky with
the weather this month so far. But I'm warn-
ing you, I'm going to start wishing for some
snow.
Perfectly blessed first-time parents, Bart and
Jessica (Baldasaro) Drennan of Stratford have
a son, Henry Dominic Drennan, born at Strat-
ford General Hospital on Friday, November 13,
weighing in at five pounds, four ounces. Par-
ents and baby are all doing very well. Henry is
second grandchild, and first grandson for Mike
and Adele Drennan of Goderich. A very wel-
comed cousin for Emily Drennan and nephew
for Debra. This is grandchild number three for
Joe and Chris Baldasaro of Hamilton.
Congratulations and all the best to the proud
new parents and grandparents.
For those keeping count, Henry makes an
even dozen great-nieces and great-nephews on
my side of the family tree. With tons of love
we welcome you Henry.
The Dungannon Community Angel Tree
service will NOT be held this year. Husband
Wayne and Alvin Moran will see to it that the
lights are put on the tree and they will be lit up
Friday, the 27th and will be left on until Janu-
ary 6. The lights are still representing those
in our community who have died too young.
Last year was the 16th year for the service
with each year names added and removed as
needed. Last year 85 names were read aloud
as part of the service.
Family dinner to celebrate Monica's birth-
day was held on Sunday. Lots of fun, food
and of course presents! Granddaughter Myrah
made a special gift of art work to her mommy.
Happy birthday!
On December 3 the Nile Church has fam-
ily bingo beginning at 7:30 p.m. Everyone is
welcome.

Debbie Bauer
Institute held their 95th anniversary last week
and a full report was in last week's paper. We
have 13 members currently and with every-
thing from fun socials to world-wide interests
through Associated Country Women of the
World (ACWW), and everything from lobby-
ing for the changing of provincial and federal
laws, to providing hospitals with much needed
items in between, there really is something
for everyone. The truth is, most people don't
know what it is the Women's Institute does
and just how rewarding it can be. Everyone
is welcomed to join us. Give me a call if you
are interested in learning more. Our next gath-
ering is a lunch out for Christmas, then back
to Marilyn's house for a fun Chinese auction.
We always have mountains of fun and tons of
laughs. Any organization that's been around
112 years has to be doing a few things right.
Just 28 more shopping days, not counting
the 24th of course. We all know that's the 'men
only' shopping day. Just kidding guys. I have
been out there on the last day myself from time
to time, mostly steering Wayne in the right di-
rection - ha ha. The weather isn't doing much
to put us in the Christmas mood though is it?
Maybe if I switch to eggnog I'll feel a bit more
like baking a figgy-pudding and hanging a
partridge up in a pear tree. For now, I'll just
finish my tea and work on my list. Now that
I've found some decent potatoes, what more
could a girl want? Maybe this year I'll finally
get that pony I've been asking for.
If you have anything you would like includ-
ed in the column, or any curiosity about the
Women's Institute, give me a call at 519-529-
7820 or email me at wdbauer@hurontel.on.ca
See you in two weeks. Keep smiling.
