He had a boy -like nature, And a heart as pure as gold, He always had a smiling face, And a story to be told. Terrific sense of humour, And a twinkle in his eye, A helping hand In time of need, On that you can rely. It's been one year already, We can't believe It's true, a only seems like yesterday, We started missing you. Maybe we can't touch your hand, Or see your smiling face, And maybe we can't hear your voice, Or feel your warm embrace. But there is something we will always have, Tucked safely in our hearts, Our love for you, Your love for us, Will never let us part. Loved and missed by your son Charlie, Esther and grandchildren Sandy, Robbie and Paul. 46-19-1 HUGILL: In loving memory of Leverne Hugill who passed away May 10, 1985. Time takes away the edge of grief, But memories turn back every leaf. Always remembered by Alma and children. 46-19x1 MCPHAIL: In loving memory of Winnifred McPhail who God called home on May 13, 1994. • They say that time heals everything, But we know that isn't so. Because it hurts as much today, As it did one year ago. So God if you have a moment, In your heaven up above, Could you tell mom that we miss her, And send her all our love. Always remembered and sadly missed by Jim and Betty Glew, Mary Lynn and Mark, Sean and Nicole Muir, Rob and Angie, and Jesse, Kelsey and Jacob Glew 46-19-1 RACHO: In loving memory of a dear husband and father, Jim, who passed away one year ago, May 12, 1994. We think of you in silence, And often speak your name, But all we have are memories, And your pictures in a frame. But we know you walk beside us, And when our lives are through, We pray that God will take our hand, And lead us straight to you. Lovingly remembered and sadly missed by Gloria and Jim Jr. 46-19x1 RACHO: In loving memory of our dear brother Jim, May 12, 1994. Throughout our life friends come and go, Leaving joy or sorrow, you just never know. But a brothers love stands always firm, Through thick and thin no condition, no term, Someone to lean on, someone to trust, A bruthers shoulder is surely a must, Happy memories stay always near, And forever remembered so very dear. Sadly missed by your family. 46-19x1 SALDIVAR: Ed -In loving memory of our dear stepfather who was taken from us 2 years ago. A smiling face, a heart of gold, The dearest stepfather this world could hold, To us you were so special, Someone dear and true, You will always be remembered, For we thought the world of you. . We love you and miss you heaps. - Lynley and Craig Hooper, Christine and Craig Fischer 46-19x1 SALDIVAR, Edmund Robert (Ed) In loving memory of my darling husband who passed away on May the 12th, 1993. Today I think about you, But that is nothing new, I thought about you yesterday, And the day before that too. My heart still aches with sorrow, And silent tears still flow, If once in a lifetime a wish could come true, I would open the door and you would walk through. The heartaches and sorrows in life are many, But losing you was the hardest of any. Forever loved and remembered by your loving wife Shyrrel. 46-19x1 47.

THE HURON EXPOSITOR, May 10, 1995-17 TIM CUMMING PHOTO READING iS FUN! - Reading is fun...and profitable! Students from Walton Public School raised close to $1,000 through a sponsored reading campaign. World Book Encyclopedia also contributed more than $400 to the effort to put more books in the school. Shown here are Stacie Giller, Trish McClure, Robert McCall of World Book, Gerrid Dalton, Geoff Banks, (back row) Devin Blake, Kevin Wilbee, Robbie McClure, Amy McClure, Kendra Bennewies, Sarah Williamson, Shane McClure and Brittany Holmes. Walton war antics recalled Dianne McCallum and Marilyn McDonald opened the United Church Women (UCW) meeting last week with a short worship service. 'The day thou gayest' was the hymn sung with Margery Huether at the piano. Patty Banks introduced Rev. Bruce Cook as the guest speaker for the evening. He reminded the ladies of some earlier prophets such as Eli and Samuel and Jeremiah who heard God's voice, who dreamed dreams and saw visions. It was Jeremiah who told the people to Dream dreams. All we have to do is lift up our voice and ask and do not be afraid because God is with us. Bruce gave some statistics about how the early United Church in the 60s was booming and now in the 90s it isn't doing quite as well. But he believes that the UCW (which is the largest women's group in Canada) is a powerful group that is best suited tohelp redesign the church to meet the social, spiritual and emotional needs of the people. There was slightly smaller crowed at the Walton Dance this past Friday but the dancers and a lot of fun. Door prize winners were Ian Wilbee and Philip James. There will be one more dance, June 2 with the Tiffins. Walton by Patty Banks 887-6860 INimmummommodi Phyllis and Emmerson Mitchell were married at the Walton United Church Manse May 7. Patty Banks had seen picture of their wedding and decided that it would be a great idea to update the picture. She posed the couple in the same places of the earlier shots and she noted that the -couple still had that same sparkle in their eyes this day as they did in their wedding pictures that were taken 46 years ago. Con- gratulations. Scott McDonald was greeter at Duff's United on may 7. In his announcements today Rev. Randy Banks received a few chuckles as he read them a little clipping from the Exposi- tor about the way the Walton people celebrated the end of the war. The article said there was flag waving and an effigy of Adolf Hitler was dragged up and down Main St. in the mud. It got kicked at and finally got burned by pouring gasoline on it and set afire. Rev. Banks couldn't believe that things like that happened in nice, quiet, downtown Walton. When the children came forward Rev. Banks hauled out his tent and told them about church camp. He pulled a small bible out of the tent bag and said that it was important for camp too. He said that there are four F -words to remind everyone what camp is about - Friendship, Fellowship, Fun and Faith. Rev. Banks sermon was called, 'Hard to Believe'. The bell at the old Walton school rang for five minutes on Friday. During WW II the church bells had to be silent so that they wouldn't draw atten- tion as possible targets. After cease fire they were free to ring again. I happened to overhear Mary Humphries talking about the war after it was over and she remembers a crowd of people going down each line blowing horns, etc. She said their fam- ily was glad the war was over but her one brother had not returned and was reported missing. However he returned a month later after being held a prisoner of war. As reported about a month ago the Walton Public School. had a 'World Book - Snuggle up and Read' Campaign where students were to find sponsors to support them financially for every book they read.
