Village Squire, 1977-05, Page 16Tom shows Amy a mirror he made from an old church window
sash.
For this season, which began April 1, Carol has added
Canadiana books to the selection at the shop. And of course
while their work in the store and workshop continues, they're
also continuing the job of bringing their old stone house on
the property back to its former splendour. The house hadn't
been lived in for 11 years when they bought the farm and,
says Tom, some of his friends such as Don Luce of the Buffalo
Sabres weren't too sure it could ever be lived in. Carol says
many of their friends, used to the conveniences of brand new
houses, shook their heads in wonder at the idea the Millers
wou1,1 .s.tually move in. The house has come a long way since
then though and the Millers like it and the little river that runs
out front and having their work so close.
Hockey, Tom says, provided many good memories. "It's
fun when you're winning," he says remembering his
championship days before he reached the major leagues, but
when things go badly as they did in Detroit in the Ned
Harkness era and later in the early days of the Islanders,
hockey can turn sour. The Millers seem glad to change the
hectic life of professional hockey for their present lifestyle.
