THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 29, 2001. PAGE 15.
On behalf of the Walton communi-
ty and surrounding area I would like
to express our deepest sympathies to
Ian Wilbee and family upon the
death of Elva Wilbee. Elva had been
battling cancer for a number of years
and succumbed to that disease
Friday, Aug. 24.
I don't think that there are many
people who didn't know Elva or who
By Jo-Ann McDonald
The end of summer is drawing near
ind the fall activities will soon begin
it the Brussels Legion Branch.
Cadets will begin again on
7uesday evenings and if you have a
'oung person who has a desire to
earn discipline, some military train-
ng and survival techniques then call
he Branch for more information.
Beavers will also begin in
leptember on Wednesday evenings
o watch for the registration ads in
his paper.
Friday night's supper of chicken
vings and salads was a big hit again.
'his weekend is the last long week-
nd so there will be no supper as
veryone deserves a break. The next
had not at least heard of her. A very
gifted pianist, she entertained people
in their family band for many years.
Some say that there wasn't a song
she couldn't play.
She was the organist and choir
leader at Duff's United for years and
also taught piano lessons to the local
children.
I got to know Elva by my Avon
visits to her house. I would listen to
her stories of the good old days and I
realized that she was a woman who
truly knew how to have fun. There
were a lot of gOod friends who have
shared in that fun throughout the
years.
I remember going to her 50th
anniversary party. It was obvious by
all the people there that they were a
well-loved couple.
A memory for me that I will
week, Sept. 7 will be lasagna.
The family day picnic for the
Branch members and their families
had only a small crowd enjoy the
games and barbecue.
Thanks to those members
who took time to organize the after-
noon.
There will be euchre on Saturday
as usual but no singles dance on
Sunday.
Elimination tickets are going great
and if you want in on the early bird
draw, be sure to have yours by Sept.
8.
The anniversary dinner tickets are
on sale at the Branch. Drop in for
yours today and let's see you at the
Branch.
always treasure is last Christmas
Eve's church service when once
again and for the last time, Elva
shared her gift of music in accompa-
nying Keith on the piano while he
played Star of The East on his saxo-
phone. It was beautiful.
Even in her illness those fingers
held their magic touch and I am sure
that I was not the only one with tears
in my eyes.
I am sure that I am not alone when
I say that she has touched my life
and I am thankful to have known her.
After hearing about so many peo-
ple going East such as, Durrells,
Shortreeds, McGavins (I know there
were more but I can't remember who
they are) it is my turn to add my
name to the list as I went with a
friend to P.E.I. I loved it. It is as
lovely as everyone had told me.
I loved seeing the red soil and the
red sand on the beach. I had an
opportunity to go deep sea fishing. I
just couldn't wait to get out there on
the ocean and catch fish.
There were 15 of us and at first
riding the waves in the fishing boat
wasn't too bad. It wasn't until the
boat dropped anchor that the sea
sickness hit me. They kept telling me
to look out at the horizon. I did and it
helped some.
The skipper of the boat instructed
us on how to fish, etc. and it seemed
as soon as the lines were dropped
everyone began catching cod and
mackerel left and right. I had people
on either side of me catching fish
and I never got a bite. Even the two
young.children caught some.
One man felt sorry for me and
gave me his pole to use. I think that
the fish sensed my sea-sickness
through the line and gave me a break
cause I don't think I could've tolerat-
ed the sight of a fish up close and
personal at that time.
It was a great trip and now I know
why people love to go there.
Ludy, Clint, Jamie and Katie
Emmrich just got back from a
month's stay in Australia. In talking
to Judy I heard what so many other
people who have been there, say —
that the country is breathtakingly
beautiful.
However, like most vacations, she
said it was so nice to be back home.
We're glad you feel that way Judy.
Welcome home.
If you happen to be going past the
Walton Venture Inc. in September
you will notice a few more cars there
than usual. That is because Shannon
McGavin will be opening Walton's
little school. It will be a
school/childcare facility with litera-
cy-based programs for 2 and a half to
five-year-old children. There will be
half days and full-day programs with
a hot meal.
This is actually an expansion of
Shannon's program that she has been
running from her home these past
few years. The school will open
Sept. 10 and already she has had
phone calls from parents wanting to
register their children.
Shannon said that the support from
this community has simply been
amazing. She has had people offer-
ing to do everything and anything to
help her get this project up and run-
ning. We wish you all the best
Shannon.
The date, Aug. 25, will be %mem-
bered by at least five newlywed cou-
ples in the Walton area. When asking
people what they were doing for the
weekend their reply was, "Going to a
wedding."
Church services at Duff's United
begin next Sunday, Sept. 2.
There will also be a WUCC meet-
ing Wednesday, Sept. 4 at 8 p.m. It's
time to get back in the groove as they
say.
