Visitors from Hensall,England entertained royally by clerk
Page 13
Friday September 5 was a
special day for Betty Oke, the
village clerk, when Derek and
Geraldine Pickerill and their
children, Jamie and Claire,
entered her office inquiring
for Irene Da ,is, who unfor-
tunately was away at the
time. After introducing
themselves to Betty, they said
they were from Hensall,
North Humberside, (former-
ly Yorkshire) England, and
were touring Ontario, staying
for a few days at Grand Bend.
Betty like a true Ambassador
realized she could not let the
opportunity pass to show the
Pickerill family Hensall, so
she invited them to her home
Lor lunch the next day.
Although Betty and Don
live in Zurich they both have
a great love for Hensall, and
give generously of their time
and talents for the betterment
of the villa e.
PARTY GAME - Huron County children's librarian Isabel Campbell and Jennifer
Groot discuss where to hide some articles during a game that was part of the Hen-
soll library's party for children participating in the summer reading program. There
was no peeking by the other children.
After lunch Don and Betty
were happy to show their
visitors the meaning of Cana-
dian hospitality. They drove
them to Hensall, showed them
all the interesting places, in-
cluding Cooks Mill (which
was their first experience of
such a place), then they were
driven to Benmiller, Goderich
and Bayfield and many other
interesting towns and villages
before returning to the Oke
residence for the evening
meal.
Don and Betty were happy
to have had the opportunity to
entertain the Pickerill family,
presenting them with a
history of Hensall called,
'Hensall, A Beautiful Place to
Live' by Mattie Ellis, also
souvenirs for them to take
home. Their name will of
course be on our Centennial
Mailing List. Both Derek and
Geraldine were very impress-
ed with Hensall and the
welcome they had received
from Don and Betty Oke, tell-
ing them this visit to Hensall
had been the highlight of their
Canadian tour.
