We enjoyed the Old Time Staffa Band following dinner. Seaforth Manor Retirement Home Foot care clinic was held Sept. 27 as well as a euchre party in the after- noon. During the month of September, we mourned the loss of Boyd Driscoll who was a fond friend to many of our residents. We welcomed Mary Connolly to the retire- ment home; it is good to have her with us.
