But, if George Roney had to put a number to it, he'd probably say that friendship is worth as much as a good maple syrup crop. And then some. The Staffa man had • beet! spending the past couple of months gearing up for the syrup season, tending the lines in his 80 -plus acres of bush, when everything came to a grinding standstill. Roney fell from a ladder where he had been working and suffered a broken pelvis and a broken femur. Things couldn't have looked any bleaker. The painful accident was bad enough, but �.. the syrup - a year-round concern for Roney, who heads out to the bash daily i from December onwards - was set to run in a week. But friends, neighbors and relatives rallied to the cause. Brian Miller, who has helped George during syrup season in the past, spearheaded a team effort to bring in the 1990 crop for George. "He's the brains behind it," agreed George's mother, Margaret Roney, as she poured the day's yield into containers last Friday. A crew of five were bustling around the steamy shed, canning the syrup before shipping it off to town. Brother-in- law Gary Betties of Seaforth loaded up his truck with boxes of the maple syrup to haul into Box Furniture, where George peddles some of his crop. "We don't know what we're doing, exact- ly," Alan Miller admitted with a sheepish grin. "We're all greenhorns." Greenhorns or not, George Roney's friends and family are giving him one less thing to worry about as he lays in Lon- don's University Hospital. George's father, Frank Roney, admitted that they did have to make quite a few panicked phone calls to George in London, but despite a mishap or two - and one nasty holdover - things have gone pretty smoothly. "That happened to George last year, though," grinned Frank Roney, noting the boilover, "so we don't feel so bad." Next Early Bird Draw APRIL 20 McMaster Sieon INSURANCE BROKERS INC.
