Green â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and red â&#x20AC;&#x201C; incentives offered to St. Lazare residents this Friday John Jantak The Journal
St. Lazare residents are invited to pick up free tree seedlings and a strawberry plant for each member of the family while supplies last to celebrate Ar : " Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Market. The combined event will take place in the parking lot of Parc BĂŠdard, 1591 Avenue BĂŠdard, from 3 to 7 p.m., this Friday, May 18. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event marks the 14th year that Arbour Day is being celebrated and highlights the importance that the environment and trees play within the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great event,â&#x20AC;? said Mayor Robert Grimaudo. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We give away a lot of trees every year. I invite all St. Lazare residents to come and grab a tree if they can. They will go quickly.â&#x20AC;? ! The town strives to maintain its green canopy and does its best to balance its

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve fostered a will to care for our environment and protect our trees,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unfortunately we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop development as much as we would like to some N : way of showing what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to do for the environment.

In Memoriam
Robert â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bobâ&#x20AC;? Edson Graham 1924 - 2018
Robert â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bobâ&#x20AC;? Edson Graham born in 1924 left us peacefully February 28, 2018. He was predeceased (1988) by his wife, Muriel (our mum,) and his companion, Florence Cole. He is survived by his children Alison, Stuart and Sylvia; his grandchildren, Lily, Catherine, and Marilynne; and his great grandchildren, Khaleesi and Alice. Bob loved and supported his family. His degree in economics from Bishops University led to providing leadership, management, research and analytical skills for Texaco, Canadair, CP Rail, and Canadian Transport Commission. In retirement, he wintered in Florida and travelled abroad including the favourite French Riviera. He thoroughly enjoyed the Hudson Players Club and the Hudson Yacht Club (his boat Happy Hour). He rode his horses with the Lake of Two Mountains Club and was a member of the Canadian Aviation Historical Society. We were so fortunate to have a dad who lived fully with passion, commitment, and vision and gave us a wonderful life in Hudson. Hugs & love always. A celebration of life will take place on May 19 at 1:00 p.m. at the St. James Church in Hudson, QC.
