On Saturday, October 24, "Four Heaven's Sake" will be in concert. This group started over 20 years ago in Chalmers Presbyterian Church, London, when Paul Laidlaw was asked to attend a func- tion of special music. From there it mushroomed when he invited other friends, also members of Chalmers, to join him. Locals will recognize Paul's name, as he is the son of the late Elroy and Louise Laidlaw of White- church. Other members of the quartet are Jim Harrett, Tom Van - nus and Ainsley Marshall. Pianist is Kim Poser. They perform mainly at church functions, weddings and anniversaries. One might wonder where the name came from. It is a cute story. One night the group was playing in Brussels, and a friend of Paul's sister Joanne happened to mention she was going to see this group. When the friend described what the event was all about, Paul's sister, realizing who the group was, exclaimed "for heaven's sake!" So a play on the first word gave the name "Four Heaven's Sake" to the quartet. Tickets ($10 in advance, $12 at door) are now available for this event. They can be found at McDonagh Insurance, Lucknow, or phone Pat 519-528-2284 or Nancy 519-528-2005. All proceeds go the Lucknow Presbyterian Church.
