Kingsbridge holds
special Arbor Day
BY JEFF SEDDON
Anyone driving past St.'
Joseph's School in
Kingsbridge would
assume that the five trees
planted on the school
lawn are a recent attempt
at landscaping. While the
beauty of the trees has
not been overlooked their
importance is more than
a simple landscaping
project.
The five trees signify
five years of donations by
Bernardine Kinney, a
retired nurse now living
in Ashfield township.
Each Arbor Day for the
past five years Mrs.
Kinney has purchased a
tree, donated it to the
school, and on Arbor Day
witnessed its planting
and dedicated it to
someone she holds dear
in her heart.
Mrs. Kinney went to
school at St. Joseph's and
left the tiny rural parish
to pursue a nursing
career in Detroit. When
she retired five years ago
she returned to a farm
,north of St. Joseph's and
Leisure
every year since then she
has honored Arbor Day
with a tree planting at St.
Joseph's School.
This year the
celebration is belated
because of poor weather
on Arbor Day but the
spirit of Arbor Day was
evident Monday af-
ternoon when Mrs.
Kinney joined kin-
dergarten andGrade One
students on the school
lawn for the tree plan-
ting.
The dedications are in
honor of people that were
former members,, of St.
Joseph's parish. Two of
the trees are in honor of
her brothers Norman and
Albert O'Loughlin,
another honors Joseph
and Eleanor Griffin, Mrs..
Kinney's grandparent's'
who were former keepers
of the Huron Historic
Gaol, the fourth honors.
Joe McIntyre, former
road superintendent for
the township and the fifth
honors Mr. and Mrs.
James Garvey.
