The Pedestrian dies, driver charged The driver of the car which struck and killed a pedestrian in (:rand Bend late Tuesday evening has been charged with impaired driving. A spokesman for the Ontario Provincial Police at Grand Bend said that the driver, Ronald Woodburn, 42, of Parkhill was given a breathalyzer test and found to have more than 80 milligrams of alMhol in his blood. The spokesman added that the crown attorney is being consulted on further charges. Dead is Wayne Daniel Voisin, 19, of Stratford. The accident occurred about 11:05 p.m. Tuesday. Voisin died Wednesday in Universi- ty Hospital, London. The accident took place on highway 83 at the corner of Gill Road near the Patio Motel. Scatchards live in Hawaii, and had brought the firecrackers with them for the special night. Scatchard said that the loud firecrackers are usually set off in Hawaii at midnight on New Year's Eve. He said that at times, the smoke is so thick from the many fire crackers, drivers are forced to pull over to the side of the road. Scatchard is orginally from London, but spent his summers at Oakwood as a boy. His father was one of the founders of St. John's-by- -iake Anglican Church. Scatchard lived in Calgary, before moving to Hawaii where he met his wife Valerie. They have three children, John, 13, Colin, 11, and Helene, 7. They will be returning to Hawaii at the end of the summer. Scatchard purchased the golf course, lodge and restaurant earlier this season. His long terms plans include the expansion of the country club to include a pool, and other recreation facilities. He also hopes to promote the Inn as a year round resort with cross country skiing in the winter, he said.
