On Tuesday, April 28, Hensall's John Pepper celebrated his 90th birth- day. On this special occasion, Pep- per did what he does three days a week, plays shuffleboard. With a big smile he said he has been playing for five years. Along with some of his friends, Pepper travels to Exeter to play. "We go to Exeter every Wednes- day and Thursday to shuffle. He drives his own car. He'll stop driv- ing in the fall," said Pearl McKnight. Tuesday at the Hensall Commu- nity Centre, Pepper moved around the room every 20 minutes, playing with a new partner. McKnight said he is a good player. "You pick your partners and you change every 20 minutes. He's a terrific shuffler, he doesn't miss. Pepper is modest and said he's not that good. "Actually I'm not." The former farmer and resident of Exeter looks forward to playing which keeps him very active and physically fit. His friends provided him with a lovely yellow flower to wear on Tuesday and they made sure he had some birthday cake.
