Special day
Mildred Lawlor, a former Auburn correspondent for The
Citizen was the guest of honour at a birthday celebration
recently. (Photo submitted)
On July 15 friends and neighbours
surprised Mildred Lawlor.
Lois Haines, Frances Clark and
Bernice Anderson were taking
Mildred out for her 80th birthday. To
her surprise there were another 24 of
her friends waiting to surprise her
with a birthday party at the
Candlelight Restaurant in Goderich.
The guests were members of the
card group, Seniors club, Auburn
Women’s Institute, Coffee Club, and
friends and neighbours.
Carole Daer, Grace Cartwright,
and Evelyn Christensen had done a
wonderful job arranging everything
and gathering the friends together
without Mildred knowing. She was
honoured with a meal and cake. The
cake was made by Carol McDowell.
Jane Giousher presented her with a
corsage.
Mildred’s granddaughter’s
birthday is the same day as
Mildred’s on Aug. 1.
Lois Haines went to visit her
brother and his wife in Elliott
Nursing Home in Guelph with
Margaret and Ron Livermore.
Verna Arthur, a former resident of
Auburn, passed away this past
Thursday. Friends of the area will
miss her.
Due to the Civic holiday next
week there will not be any news for
the week of Aug. 4. In order to
prevent missing anyone here are the
birthdays and anniversary wishes
until the next
news will De reported. Also for the
week of Aug. 11 Auburn news
should be submitted by Aug. 7 at the
latest, as the correspondent will be
on holidays.
