COOK, GARRY-in loving memo- ry of my dear uncle who passed away on January 6, 1993. Beautiful memories are wonderful things They last till the longest day, They never wear out They never get lost, And they can never be taken away.

Keeping a tab on collections June 29, 1994_ -Bill and Catherine Forsyth of Wingham put gut an ap- peal for people to save their alumi- num pop tabs in containers provid- ed around town over Wingham Homecoming. The couple had been inspired by a Formosa girl Sarah Moran, who started collecting pop tabs for a cousin who needed a wheelchair. The tabs are sold for their alumi- num and the proceeds go toward purchasing wheelchairs for dis- abled children, who often quickly outgrow their chairs. As they are estimated to cost in the thousands of dollars, any help with their pur- chase is badly needed. Dec. 31, 1994 -.-The Forsyths are continuing their pop tab campaign and are very much encouraged ht, the response they have received and continue to receive from friends, schools and containers placed in various businesses around town. The Wingham branch of the Royal Canadian Legion saves its pop tabs and gives them to the Forsyth$. They also have made a nen friend in Ron Stacey of NV-Ingle-re a tireless worker for their cause. They also have made friends at the Elora Legion branch. A committee there has delivered 54 wheelchairs e. to needy children since 1990. "It is a simple action to just open :. a can and save the tab," says Mrs. Forsyth. "Every one saved makes a difference." The couple plans to continue their campaign in 1995.
