What awesome kids and grandchil- dren I have as they gave me a "surprise" and I mean a "surprise" 65th birthday party which was held at Steve & Tracey's house with the help of Darrel & Kendra, Tanya & Mike and grandkids. I was surrounded by many friends and relatives and it was great to socialize with everyone, some who I have not seen in ages. There was a lot of reminiscing going on. How can I ever thank everyone for their thoughtfulness, blessings and treats, which the sourpuss was a big hit. But especially for my dad being there and I know my mom would have had a few treasured words for me, ha,ha! We sure miss her very much. So thanks again to my great kids, family and friends, and especial- ly to my hubby, you all sure made it a superb 65th birthday party. Luv you all. - Norah (Nona) Eckert MOYLAN I was overwhelmed by how many of you at- tended my Retirement Open House recently. Thank you so much for coming out on such a rainy day. I hope you enjoyed yourselves. And for your generous food and monetary donations to the Seaforth Food Bank I am truly grateful. The cards and well wishes (which continue to come) have been so gratifying. Your kindness and generosity brings to mind a quote by W.C.Gannett "If there is any kindness or good things I can do for my fellow being, let me do it now. For I shall pass this way but once." It has been a privilege for me to have been involved with the health care of so many of you over the past several years and I thank you for the trust and confidence you have granted me. Thanks to Grace Campbell for helping the girls. They had so much confidence in Deb's party organiza- tional skills but you were the icing on the cake. And last but not least to my family for hosting the event. You really pulled it off beautifully. You are awesome! - Rita Moylan SMITH Over the last 5 years Lynda (Hill) Smith has had her ups and downs with cancer. One thing which was consistent - it truly over- whelmed Lynda and me - was the love, kindness, thoughtfulness and support our community gave us. None of us truly knows what happens after death - however if it is possible to smile, Lynda will be smiling at you all thinking how many times you made her smile in life. Thank you, George Smith In Memoriams In Memoriams NICHOLSON: In loving memory of my dear husband Ross, who passed away two years ago on Nov. 16th, 2011. I often sit and think about the years that have passed by, And of the happiness and joy that was shared by you and I, I think of all the laughter, the smiles and all the fun, And before I even know it my tears have begun, For although it brings me comfort to walk down memory lane, It reminds me how, without you life has nev- er been the same. - Lovingly remembered by Lillian NICHOLSON: In loving memory of our dear dad, grandpa and great grandpa, Ross,who passed away two years ago, Nov. 16th, 2011. Time slips by and life goes on, But from our hearts, you're never gone, We think about you always, we talk about you too, We have so many memories but we wish we still had you. - Always in our thoughts, Paul, Louise and families Obituaries Obituaries CLAUS, Hal - Passed away peacefully at the Alexandra Marine & General Hospital on Saturday, November 9, 2013 in his 74th year.
