Why on earth should lchange my Will? Because things Change. Not that your _, love or caring for your family has changed one bit, but circumstances change. In the light of these changes, it may be to your family's advantage for you to review and update your Will. For instance, your children may have reached adulthood. There have been major changes irk the law, recently: Your financial picture may have changed, and you could find some tax advantages. Any of these possibilities makes it worthwhile to review,your Will. When you do, think of us.. A simple sentence, "I give to the Canadian Cancer Society the sum of dollars" will help us continue the promising new researchlmade possible by the Marathon of Hope. The fight against cancer will take years of determined effort. Your caring could make the difference between fighting and winning. omi/iaai/aam/1111/ iliiiiilllIf1III 1 �I aY Former 1Nirmttam resideril iasssI� Goderich hospital l A ,termer resident of the town of Wingham, Mrs. John Thomas Brooks, passed. away Friday, September 21, at Alexandra Marine and General HospPital, Goderrich, Mrs. Brooks, whose last home was at 200 Britannia Road, wades iehher ,. 04 rmv.aa, was in eaa+a 57th year.
