Horton, who passed away
Feb. 1, 1982.
It's lonely here without you,
We miss you more each day.
For life is not the same for
us,
Since you were called away.
You worked so hard through
iIJ your years,
With just one thought in
mind,
To help your children as they
grew,
The be§t dflitt to find.
You often said we'd miss
you,
These words have proven
true,
For now. when worries
trouble us,
We cannot turn to you.
They say memories are
golden
And well we know that's
true.
But we never wanted mem-
ories
We wanted only you! Dad.

As in the hour she passed

We often sit and think of her
When we are all alone.
For memory is the only
friend
That grief can call it's own.

Seniors'
Day Centre News
By Rita Rice
The month of January has
been a very busy one at the
centre and those who despise
winter will be pleased to see
February is here.
After a -few years of
participating in a University
of Guelph media production
entitled "Aging in a Rural
Environment", the final
production was shown at the
centre last Tuesday.
Dr. Anne Martin -Mat-
thews of the Gerontology Re-
search Centre and the fam-
ily and consumer studies de-
partment at the university
came to the centre to present
the videotape. Dr. Tony
Fuller of the School of Rural
Planning came to the centre
as well. The day centre owns
a cdpy of the production and
thei`e were two showings last
Wednesday and Thursday .
We have the videotape at
Me centre and are quite
willing to give it out for
groups to show. The
videotape depicts what life is
like for seniors in Huron
County.
Our .Robbie Burns Day
program last Wednesday
was a success and thanks are
extended to Rhoda McKenzie
of Lucknow for showing her
slides on Scotland, to Susan
McNaughton of Lucknow for
speaking about her Scottish
heritage and to Hazel
Bateman, Stuart Henry and
Anna Johnston for providing
our musical entertainment.
The next foot clinic ..is
scheduled for Feb. 7 from
1:30 to 3:30 p.m. Please call
the centre at 357-1440 if you
wish to attend.
The Tuesday , and Wed-
nesday groups will be
bowling this week.
Two films will be shown
each afternoon at 1:15 p.m.
each' day. One is "The
Cardiovascular Club", a
health -oriented film, and the
other is "People of the
Book", a look at the Jewish
of her presentation is Feb. 29
at 1:30 p.m.
This . is a reminder that
anyone can make referrals
to the centre. The centre will*
be five years old in April and
it has grown considerably,
during that time. We now are
serving seniors in many of
the outlying areas of Huron
and Bruce Counties. As the
videotape mentioned earlier
concludes, the population is
aging in our society - and
many support services such
as the day centre will be a
product for the future.
A thought for this week
regarding health and fitness
is: Don't take it easy.
Remember age places no
barrier on your attitude
toward fitness. Moderation
is the key.
