The Goderich Signal-Star, 1986-06-18, Page 9Coinmunit Nevus Martha m"ti',1s over the ch ge The time has just- nowt; since last Mon- day. I have been trying to see all - or some of the changes in the area - it is unbelievable - it is wonderful and I'm happy to see the change. I was fortunate to have a spot at Suncoast Mall to show some of my paintings - and the changes that have been made with people moving within the mall was a nice surprise. We are lucky to have a lovely Mayor and a good council who are thinking ahead for us. What do most of us know about business or real estate? The Square has really shaped up beautifully - and I hope the hanging baskets for The Square are there again - they really add to making "The Prettiest Town—". The building of homes and business is shaping up so fast, that even I know that Goderich in finally on the move. When we get to 14 or 15 thousand people we can stop ' and enjoy our little city. The stores opposite the Suncoast are all filled up and doing a good business. Then our fast food places are real busy — where ' and when did all the new people come here? The real estate business is or has boomed - well, there are still building spots to be had but hard to find. I enjoyed a recent story in the Signal -Star on our Donald Bert and his boats - ("Little Toot" has been lost in the shuffle) TheBert MacDonald grandchildren and greats - are keeping the harbor in safe hands. It strikes me as I see more and more around the town that the now generation are looking up and seeing the struggle their grandparents have had and they are going to make us proud of thgir generation. Everyone is finally realizing we have to look out for each other and with our police force we can fight drugs and other crime. There is such a lot of trouble in overseas Countries that it makes one realize we must all work together. Overseas are growing and changing - and I think they resent out- siders trying to change their world. We have to show them a good example - or get off their tails and let them go back to their old ways. In the meantifne we can iust pray for help overseas - and in our own North America. How did I get on that theme!vay let us take another look at what a few people are trying to do for our own way of life and give them some help. The children need more help from Gram and Grampas - so remember you are still needed and you need the youngsters too. Believe it or not. Love Martha. Dean Vincent and sister Jtyne were on hand to show off Mark, at the Hurinl County Holstein Show during the Clinton ;prang Fair on June 7. Over 102 cattle made their way to the fairgrounds.
