Mike Bossio says effort to make ‘rural voice’ heard is paying dividends BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

When he was elected just more than a year ago in Hastings-Lennox and Addington, Mike Bossio predicted his toughest task would be making sure the ‘rural voice’ was heard on Parliament Hill.

Napanee’s

“I knew there was going to be lots of challenges, because I’m a rural MP,” he said. “Just that, in an of itself, creates a whole suite of challenges — logistically, (but also) just from a lobbying standpoint, from an education standpoint. Government is very urban-run. All the staffers are urban. Most of the MPs are urban.”

And while that prediction has held true in many respects, Bossio says he and his fellow rural MPs have still been able to make headway. The party’s 50-member rural caucus — of which Bossio is the chair — is part of the reason why, he suggests. “We have been able to move the yardstick, and we have been able to educate and utilize the

Police Report

Town to remove stop sign Truck troubles on 401 at Bridge St. intersection Beaver Staff

Change made in conjuction with realignment

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

Citing poor visibility to motorists travelling eastbound, Greater Napanee council voted Tuesday night to remove the stop sign at the south side of the intersection of Bridge Street and Belleville Road. Currently under reconstruction, the five-way intersection had previously featured four stop signs with traffic heading west on Bridge Street given the rightof-way. Due to the re-alignment taking place with the resurfacing, it was suggested to council that they remove the stop sign for motorists heading toward Centre Street. The motion to remove it was voted on and carried. “Part of the issue with the re-alignment with the existing hill, there would be very little visibility of the existing

stop sign,” said Greater Napanee Chief Administrative Officer Ray Callery. “With all the engineering that’s been done, the removal of that, in the professional opinion of the design engineer, will make it a lot safer. If someone comes over that hill in a short distance and didn’t know the stop sign was there, it’d be very difficult to see it in time.” Because that intersection has featured a stop sign for several years, it could take some getting used to for residents. “I hope we have a lot of communication on this one,” said Ward 2 councillor Max Kaiser. “I understand the realignment of Bridge Street is going to be an excellent method of communicating that ‘hey something’s different here, something’s changed here,’ but I drive through town and see people’s recognition and adapta-

tion of left-hand turn lanes at certain intersections and advance greens or the lack thereof, I wonder how smoothly this change is going to go. So I fear for that. I don’t disagree that it’s the right thing to do.” Ward 5 councillor Shaune Lucas was the lone member of council to not vote for the motion. He cited his concerns for the liability of the town if an accident were to occur after the removal of the sign. He also stated he’d like to hear feedback from the OPP as to whether or not they would support the idea or not. Mayor Gord Schermerhorn stated he’d like to see the county’s digital sign placed near the intersection to inform motorists that the stop sign is no longer in place. He also stated there would be plenty of education to the public to make them aware of the flow of traffic following the re-opening of the road.

BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

For more than a century, the local children’s aid society has appealed to the public in order to help families in need during the Christmas season. This season is no different. Last Thursday, Family and Children’s Services of Frontenac and Lennox and Addington kicked off its annual Tree of Hope campaign. “Last year we helped over 900 children and families with gifts at this time of year. We help them with toys, food, cribs, household items and other supports. These are the families that we serve that we’re helping — they’re perhaps some of the most deserving families in our community, the most needy families,” said Steve

said “There are many ways that we share our passion for helping families, kids and their networks within the community; perhaps the Tree of Hope is the best expression of it,” said FCSFLA Board of Directors chair Heather Morrison at the kickoff event. “The reason why this campaign is so

important is it shows that Christmas is about giving, not just getting.” Even Santa Claus made an appearance to help get the campaign off the ground. “Napanee has been doing this for so long, and I just want to say that I consider this, in my heart, the real ‘capital of Christmas’,” he said.

‘Tree of Hope’ drive gets started Woodman, FCSFL&A executive director in launching the campaign at the Napanee office. “Today, we’re asking for help from the public… and I’m sure that with your help we can bring Christmas home to these people.” Although the ‘Tree of Hope’ name is relatively new — started by the former L&A Family and Children Services about a decade ago — it is a continuation of similar appeals undertaken by that agency and its Frontenac County counterpart that have occurred every year for over 100 years. “The ‘Tree of Hope; is the modern legacy,” said Woodman. He also said that while the campaign assisted 900 children who are affiliated with the agency last year, they’d like to be in a position to help even more this year. “The need is well over 1,000 that we’d like to help,” he

Folk art display takes centre stage at L&A Museum BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

Folk art collectors David and Jo Field will be hosting a unique show and tell of their collection at the Lennox and Addington County Museum and Archives on Nov. 15. Their talk, which will be a Tuesday Night at the Museum presentation, will focus on the wide variety of items they’ve gathered from Lennox and Addington County and the surrounding area. “Folk art to many people is a nebulous concept, they’re not sure what it is,” said David Field, who has been collecting folk art with his wife since 1970. “(The Nov. 15 talk) is going to introduce the concepts of folk art, how it’s generally defined and talk about the materials used and the places it comes from. We’ll relate it to examples that are in our collection and possibly others and sort of personalize the pieces with stories about the people who made it.” The couple has been collecting, dealing and admiring folk art for over four decades and continue to do so to the present day.

Adam Prudhomme-Staff

Above is an example of some of the folk art that will be discussed by Jo and David Field during their Tuesday Night at the Museum presentation on Nov. 15. They’ve travelled to several countries to search for unique and one-of-a-kind items. A portion of their collection is currently on display at the L&A County museum, and will remain there until Jan. 20. One of the more unique aspects of folk art is that often times the pieces serve an everyday use.

“They’re utilitarian pieces decorated in folksy way,” said Jo Field. “Like spoons, ladles and fireplace implements. Things that were used in everyday living that someone decided to make with decorative appeal.” “Some folk art was made to commemorate an event,” added David Field. “So you’ll get dioramas done of

the sinking of a ship or that type of thing.” Like all art forms, many times the beauty of a particularly piece is in the eye of the beholder. Some of the more valuable items can be considered ghastly to a lot of

people. “The things we really like we call stomach flippers,” said David Field. “You look at it as you would any piece and your stomach just flips and goes ‘Wow, this is really good.’ Then it’s even

better when you find out the story behind the maker.” Tickets for their presentation are $3 and will be made available at the door the night of the event. The talk gets underway at 7 p.m.

Picturing Our Community

The importance of remembering Tomorrow, we mark the most solemn day on the calendar, as we pause and reflect the sacrifice made by Canadian soldiers through the years in various conflicts around the globe. It’s a time when we reflect on the things that those soldiers fought for — not just for their country and family, but for the ideals at the core of our country. Lastly, it’s a day for contemplating the true, human cost of war. All these things make the day critically important to our country. As the years pass, it becomes easier to forget the sacrifices that have been made by people we’ve never met on our behalf. Thankfully, we haven’t seen conflict on the scale that we saw in the first half of the last century — where our country would see hundreds and thousands of our best young people killed in a single day’s action — but we have seen our soldiers in more recent years give their lives in combat around the globe. We know that the time may yet again come where Canadian soldiers will have to put their lives on the line. Remembrance Day is designed to ensure that decision is never made lightly. We were reminded of the importance of remembrance in speaking with Audrey Topping-Keech in last week’s Beaver. In the First World War, two of her uncles — Bruce and Harold Fairbairn of Centreville — were killed fighting in the First World War. It’s hard to conceive of one family losing two young men within a one-year span in one horrible conflict — and yet, this kind of tragedy was replayed thousands of times in Canadian homes during those years. Topping-Keech has personally made a point of ensuring that the Fairbairn boys’ sacrifice isn’t forgotten, as we’re sure other Canadian families are doing as well. She has kept a letter written by Harold home to his sister (Topping-Keech’s mother); in that letter, it shows that these soldiers were just ‘regular boys’, with the same needs and desires — and most notably, fears — as anyone else would have in that most unthinkable and terrible situation. We remember the Fairbairns and all those other soldiers who endured the same horrors of war and did not return. Fittingly, the names of both Harold and Bruce included on the Lennox and Addington County Cenotaph, where hundreds of us will soon gather to remember. We encourage any who are able to be there tomorrow — or at similar services in Deseronto, Wilton, Tamworth and other communities. Indeed, there’s nothing quite so moving as being together with your fellow citizens to acknowledge those who have given all on your behalf. Giving a few minutes of your day for them doesn’t repay the debt, but it is meaningful nonetheless.

We want to hear from you! The Napanee Beaver welcomes letters to the editor. Letters should be no more than 300 words, and all letters must be signed. Send your letters to beaver@bellnet.ca, or to 72 Dundas St. E., Napanee, ON, K7R 1H9

Letter to the Editor

Yarker school matters I was shocked and alarmed to hear that the Limestone Board of Education is considering the closure of Yarker Family School. Yarker residents have been educating their children in Yarker since the 1840s. The present school building was erected in 1962, and the school enjoys wide support from the community. Several years ago, over $25,000 was raised by our community to purchase safe, modern playground equipment, which the children are happily using today. In 2008, in partnership with the County of Lennox and Addington, a branch of the Public Library was added to the school, at a cost of $350,000. In 2014, a third classroom was added to accommodate the Full Day Kindergarten program, at a cost of over $500,000. Are these major tax and community investments to

be wasted? Our school in Yarker is an excellent learning environment for our children. The Grade 3 testing done by Ontario’s Education Quality and Accountability Office placed Yarker’s students at 100 per cent in reading, 95 per cent in writing and 75 per cent in math when compared to students across Ontario. This high level of achievement should be compared with levels of 43 per cent, 49 per cent and 47 per cent respectively, at Odessa Public School, where the School Board wants to send Yarker students if this proposal is adopted. This will reward mediocrity by closing down excellence — very poor logic on the part of Limestone School Board and a very poor choice for the future of Yarker students. The plan for school closings does not stop at Yarker.

If the board follows its recently released Pupil Accommodation Report, there will not be any of the current schools left in all of Stone Mills in two years. Our education property taxes will be taken out of our municipality and spent in other places, leaving Stone Mills citizens with nothing to show for our education taxes but empty, derelict, and unwanted school buildings. Yarker residents are not going to sit still for this unjust and illogical proposal. Many of us will be attending the School Board’s Accommodation Committee meeting at Odessa Public School on Nov. 30. Please join us! For more information see the Facebook page: Rural Schools Matter. Eric DePoe, Yarker

Christmas decorations before Nov. 11 disrespectful Nov. 11 is a memorial for those who have dedicated their lives to protect the rights of Canadians worldwide. Is it too much to make this one day about celebrating and remembering these soliders, those who have given their lives for us? Soldiers, wounded warriors, family of soldiers past, deserve our time and

respect for their sacrifices. We should wear our poppies with pride, bear witness to wreaths placed in memory and silently take a moment to reflect. I understand that Christmas is a huge retail business, but does it need to engulf the one day set aside for soldiers and veterans? It is one thing for the stores to buy into this, but our town

now feels the need to decorate our streets before Nov. 11 — putting up the tree and decorations around town hall instead of wreaths and poppies. I hear the argument that there is not enough time. There is not enough time to show our respect for those who have served and sorrow for those who have

Why our rural schools work so well S a resident of Stone Mills Township in Lennox and Addington County, I am alarmed and upset that all of the public schools here are under threat of closure, which was recommended by an American asset sustainability firm, Ameresco. I am also horrified to learn that elected trustees are being influenced and then overruled by unelected senior staff of the Limestone District School Board. Trustees are elected to represent the wishes and needs of our community. They should be the only ones to determine the

future of our children’s education. School board staff should not be voting, especially not on school closures. Small rural schools work and here is why they work so well: ■ They have high levels of parent participation and low levels of behavioural problems. ■ Everyone in the school knows one another. ■ Students have shorter travel times – shouldn’t the youngest children travel the shortest distances? ■ There are high levels of student participation in extracurricular activities.

■ Every student participates in school activities such as school-wide pumpkin carving, Terry Fox Run, Jingle Bell Run, Grandparents Tea, story time at the library, open houses, holiday concerts, nature walks and so much more. ■ There are natural playgrounds with real grass, trees, fresh air and views of the landscape. ■ The digital revolution has removed former distance related problems of information and resources for rural schools. ■ By closing the schools the Limestone District School

Board is contributing directly to the decline in rural population. Schools should not need to be in the business of making money. Schools are there to educate our children. Long bus rides have a significant and negative impact on children of every age but especially on youngsters going to kindergarten and public school. This burden should be given equal weight with the consultant’s and school board’s narrow financial projections. Please help to keep our public schools open. G.P. Knowles, Yarker

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 50 Years Ago November 9, 1966 ■ The local employment office was painting a bleak economic picture for the area. T.W. Cox, manager of the Napanee Manpower Centre, said that if the area didn’t get some sort of building program soon, “we’ll be in for a tough winter.” He said that there was a spike in the number of unemployed individuals. He also noted that the region wasn’t designated as a ‘high winter unemployment’ area, and as such wouldn’t qualify for government programs designed for those areas. ■ One major building program came to a halt in Napanee. Construction work stopped at the expansion of Napanee District Secondary School. The contractor, A. Weller of Toronto, ceased work at the site and was threatening to sue the Napanee Collegiate Board for a late payment of just under $100,000. The school board, however, was withholding payment on the advice of its own solicitor because the contractor had failed to post a performance bond before construction had started.

35 Years Ago November 11, 1981 ■ Light rail train cars destined to carry commuters into Vancouver, Scarborough and Detroit were going to be built in Millhaven and would provide an estimated 300 new local jobs. A private company and a Crown enterprise were joining resources to create a new company: Toronto Iron Works and the Urban Transportation Development Corporation signed an agreement to become equal partners in the company. It was to start producing the aluminum vehicles in early 1983. The new company was to set up shop in the Millhaven industrial park. ■ Lennox and Addington County council was one step closer to approving its official plan, which was to guide planning and development in the county for the next 20 years. The first draft of the goals and objectives of the official plan were presented to council at its October meeting. Work on the plan was being done by the county planning department and consultants MacLaren Engineers, Planners and Scientists Incorporated of Toronto. “The goals and objectives form the foundation of the planning principles and provide direction to guide policies and programs,” the report said.

Deseronto Public School students had a chance to speak with living history on Wednesday as they were invited to a question-and answer session with three local veterans. Held at the Deseronto Public Library, the talk saw veterans Jerry Foyle, Dan Cronk and Carl Wagar take the stage and speak candidly about their service. They spoke to a crowd made up of Grade 5,6,7 and 8. Foyle served 38 years in the Royal Canadian Air Force with tours in Afghanistan and Congo. He’s currently the president of Royal Canadian Legion Branch 280 in Deseronto. “The whole time that I was in the service was enjoyable,” said Foyle. “It was a learning experience and you saw how life is in a lot of countries that are less affluent than we are.” Cronk, who was sporting the blue beret he wore during his time in the service, was a peacekeeper for over 20 years, serving in Iraq, Iran and the Gulf War. “It was just a fantastic opportunity for me to travel the world,” said Cronk. “I had a great time, you get to meet so many different people and see many different things.” Wagar, a sergeant in the Air Force for over 28 years with time served in the Gulf, also agreed that he enjoyed his time in the mili-

we got a call saying ‘take cover, there’s a Scud missile inbound,’” recalled Foyle. “We looked around and said to ourselves ‘where are we going to take cover in the middle of a fuel farm?’ We basically all shook hands and said good luck. The scud missile overflew the site. At the time we were pretty frightened and shaking, waiting to see what was going to happen.” While all three would return home from their service safe and sound, they did all lose fellow soldiers in battle. Despite the horrors of war, all said they didn’t regret signing up for duty. Unfortunately for the students, Second World War veteran Jim Fawcett was unable to attend this year’s question and answer session because he was under the weather. As a member of the air force he flew over 60 missions in a time when the average life expectancy for a pilot was five to 10 missions. He is one of the region’s last surviving WWII veterans and is always full of riveting stories. He, like several other local veterans, is hoping to attend tomorrow’s Remembrance Day ceremony at the Deseronto Cenotaph. Located on Main Street, the site will be the focal point for tomorrow’s ceremony, which will get underway around 10:30 a.m. with a moment of silence observed at 11:11 a.m.

Volunteers from the Napanee Lion’s Club will be spread out through the north part of Napanee’s Centre St. on Nov. 19, collection donations for the Canadian Diabetes Association. Stationed in front of Giant Tiger, No Frills, Metro and Walmart, the volunteers will hand out stickers in exchange for donations to the cause, which is to send kids to Type 1 Diabetes Camp. “Whether children have been diagnosed for a couple of years or it’s a brand new diagnosis, the point of Diabetes Camp is to try and integrate them into a social

network with other children who are living with Type 1 Diabetes,” said Betsy Lake, Canadian Diabetes Association community engagement lead for south eastern Ontario. “Essentially it’s just a main hub to bring all people associated with diabetes and having to change their lifestyle drastically into one central location for a week of activities.” The camp features all the fun and games found in a typical summer camp but also includes talks from people who live with diabetes and offers tips with how to live with the life altering disorder. They also have medical professionals on hand to discuss how diet and exercise can help keep the symptoms under control. Many

times a diagnosis can seem overwhelming as it means patients will need to make a series of adjustments. It can be especially hard on young children. “It generally costs over $1,000 to send one kid to camp,” said Lake, noting they don’t have a goal in mind for their fundraiser but every little bit will help. “If we reach $1,000 (on Nov. 19) then we’re able to support one child going to camp for free or we can look at two kids going for a subsidized price of $500 each and so on.” Also during the storefront fundraiser, they will be handing out information on diabetes and how to manage it.

“We feel the power to designate or not should not carry such dire consequences to homeowners,” said Morrison. “This is the second time in three years our insurer has elected to decline insurance solely due to the fact that our house is heritage designated. To have insurance at all we have to accept double the value of insurance due to its heritage designation. Our home is currently insured for the next three weeks at double for what a comparable non-heritage home would be insured for.” Time is a factor for the Morrisons as their current insurance will expire on Nov. 27.

BOSSIO | New rural infrastructure funds CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 As for the $2 billion rural infrastructure announcement, Bossio says he’s still waiting for the details on what that funding will mean for the riding; as yet, those details haven’t been released. “I need to sit down with the Infrastructure Minister (Amarjeet Sohi)… to make sure we’re one the same page so that small, rural communities will have those infrastructure dollars dedicated to roads, bridges, water, sewer and social housing — all these important areas in our rural communities,” he said. “Is it going to go to very small communities? Or is it just going to go to the Small Communities Fund, which is for communities under

100,000? That’s still beneficial, but I’d like to see it (get down) to a finer level,” he said later. A third area that Bossio says he’s seeing progress in is economic development. He points to the continuation of a local pilot program, started under the Conservative government, that sees the private and public sectors partner to invest in entrepreneurial startups through the Prince Edward L&A Community Futures Development Corporation. “They’ve taken $5 million of public money and $5 million in venture capital, and they’re investing in startups. They look at local startups but they’re also bringing start-ups from Toronto and other areas to this region,” he said.

He says the biggest challenge facing small- and medium-sized business not just in rural Canada but across the country is lack of access to capital — capital necessary to expand and grow. “That’s something that government could facilitate on, or provide grants or resources to enable them to access that capital,” he said. “That will help them to be more successful, help them to scale to the next level.” While he says there’s still much work left to do on this score, things are moving in the right direction. “The good news is that it’s not just a rural issue. It’s a national issue. We’ve got to find a solution to this if we’re going to compete,” he said.

by Major John McCrae, 1915

In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved, and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders Fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; by yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders Fields.

Don’t block the light either from windows. Covering every window with blinds and draperies can make a room feel dark and crowded. Leave windows bare or only cover with sheer draperies to let the light shine through. Light always makes a space seem larger. Create a focus in your space. If you’re lucky enough to have a fireplace, accentuate it. Even if you don’t have a natural focal point, create one. Painting just one wall a different colour will draw the attention into the room and make it seem bigger. Put a large credenza or entertainment center on that wall and decorate it with beautiful accessories. When you have a small area, clutter is not an option. Storage is king when it comes to small apartment living. You need vehicles to help you hide unavoidable clutter from view.

One thing that small spaces lack is depth, since there is only so much space the eye can take in. Luckily, you can make up that depth easily by layering in your design. It’s important to note that layering is not just about piling one design element on top of another. It’s also about creating contrast. So, when you’re selecting the items that you’d like to layer throughout your apartment, go for pieces that have varying materials, textures, and patterns.

Raiders pick on the little guys in consecutive shutouts Napanee routs Rebels and Jets BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

att Loveys was perfect at a crucial time for the Napanee Raiders, turning in back-to-back shutouts while earning identical 8-0 wins over Campbellford and Amherstview. Steady goaltending is just what the Raiders needed, who came into the weekend having lost three of their previous four. They rebounded in a big way at home Friday night, routing the winless Rebels. Justynn Steven opened the scoring at the 4:23 mark of the game. Held scoreless for the rest of the first, the Raiders kicked open the floodgates with five goals in the second. Tyler Ignazzitto, Cullen Hinds, Matthew Scott and Riley Steeves all lit the lamp while Steven chipped in his second of the night. Devon King and Tristan Nugent each had one in the third to ice the victory. Napanee was a perfect 2-2 in power-play attempts and outshot their hapless opponents 53-18. They were particularly dominant in the third as perhaps the shortbenched Rebels were gasping for air. The Raiders outshot their opponents 17-3 over the final 20 minutes. The Rebels dressed just 15 players for the game. On Tuesday old rivals met in Napanee as the

Napanee’s Jason Kelly makes pro boxing debut in Atlanta Despite losing on judge’s decision, Kelly defies the odds to step back into the ring

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

orking on little more than two weeks notice, Napanee’s Jason Kelly accelerated his comeback by four full months and stepped back into the boxing ring on Saturday in Atlanta, GA. Making his pro-boxing debut, Kelly went toe-to-toe with a much more experienced fighter for four

rounds of three minutes. The judges would rule in his opponent’s favour. “It was a good fight, we went the distance,” said Kelly. “At the end of the fourth round we thought it was a draw, only to come to find out that they had him winning. But I always tell my fighters to not leave it in the judge’s hands and to finish the fight early. Especially if you’re fighting in a different country, fighting that countryman. It’s like fight-

ing the champ, you have to steal the show.” While it wasn’t the result he wanted, just getting into the ring was a victory in itself. He was ready to quit the sport altogether following a major back injury four years ago. Doctors told him he’d never fight again. A mixed-martial artists and rising amateur boxer at the time in British Columbia, he was prepared to hang up his gloves. He eventually settled in Napa-

nee where he opened Diamond Fitness and MMA. After getting medical clearance earlier this year to resume fighting, he began training with the idea of making his pro debut in February 2017. That was before he was unexpectedly offered the fight in Atlanta. He quickly shifted focus, dropping down to 165 pounds to make the weight class and agreeing to the bout. “It sucks having a loss

on my record, but as I always tell my fighters, we never lose, we learn,” said Kelly. “At the end of the fourth round when I heard the bell I was proud of myself. After being told four years ago I’ll never be able to fight again, of all my career fights it was the best fight I ever fought in my life.” Though disappointed in the judge’s ruling, he took solace in the fact that he’ll have another shot at that

same opponent on Dec. 3 in Tennessee. He’ll have to drop down to 160 pounds for that bout. While he continues to train for his next fight, he will also be getting ready for a grand re-opening of his Diamond Fitness and MMA gym on Nov. 19. Running from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., they’ll be offering free classes and a tour of their newly renovated training facility, located at 824 Palace Rd.

RAIDERS | Two straight wins CONTINUED FROM PAGE 23 Loveys earned his second straight shutout with 23 saves. Though the wins may have come against the league’s bottom dwellers, the four points were a no doubt greatly appreciated by the Raiders who had begun to veer off course of late. They are now 11-5 on the year and have put a bit of distance between themselves and third place Gannanoque and Picton, who are both 7-7-1 on the year. That gives Napanee a seven point cushion over those two clubs. Port Hope still remains unbeaten at 14-0

and is six points up on Napanee. The Jets meanwhile fall to 5-11 while the Rebels are quickly becoming a non-factor in the playoff chase at 0-14. Only the top four of the six teams qualify for the playoffs. Napanee will look to continue their resurgence on Sunday when they travel to Amherstview for a rematch with the Jets. Puck drop is 7:30 p.m. That will mark the only game in a relatively quiet week for the Raiders. Their next home game will be Nov. 18 when they welcome the Islanders to town. Puck drop is 7:30 p.m. at the SPC.

Chadwick, Huyck and Bailey Cook-Martin.The Hawks answered back late in the first with two quick goals followed by a third goal in the early minutes of the middle frame. The remainder of the game was exciting end to end play with both teams tightening up their defense to keep the pucks out. Nathaniel Cinnamon made timely saves to contribute to the win. On Saturday the Stars welcomed the Durham Crusaders and skated to a 4-2 victory. Goaltender Holden Breault stood tall for the Stars between the pipes.

Scoring for the Stars were Catena (two), Caleb Justason and Haller-Brady. Assists went to Cook-Martin, Luc Amat (three), Branson Leveque-Price, and Catena. Sunday the Stars closed out their busy weekend with a road trip to Oshawa to face the Crusaders in a re-match. The Stars and Crusaders each shared a point with a final tied score of 1-1. Scoring for the Stars was Amat, unassisted on a break-away. The goal against the Stars was one worthy of an NHL video review, as the

crowd watched the puck slide toward the net just as the period ended and the buzzer rang. The referees would ultimately rule it as a good goal, ending the game in a draw. ■ On Tuesday the Bantam BB Stars faced the Stirling Blues. Unfortunately the Stars were not in top form for this one and the game ended in a 6-1 loss. Scoring for the Stars in the first was Connor Verhoog assisted by Ethan Joe and Andy Ruttan. The team is in Stirling tonight to face the Blues.

GEORGE MAGOLD

In memory of George Magold. November 14, 2011

In loving memory is where he rests, On the wing of a bird high in the sky. In the sound of an arena, when they all cheer. In the heart of his best friend, his love, his wife

Missing you always your loving wife and family.

MEMORIAMS

BAITLEY - In loving memory of dear Kim Elaine, who left us suddenly November 6, 1998. Wherever you look You will find me there, In the heart of a rose, In the heart of a prayer, On butterfly wings, On wings of my own, To you I’m gone But I’m never alone. I am home. Loved and forever in our hearts, daughter Stephanie (Matt), granddaughter Madison, grandsons Seth and Radrick, Mom and Gary, brothers Ralph (Michele) and Mark (Juanita), stepbrother James (Kelly) and families. BRADSHAW - In loving memory of a dear mother, Jean Bradshaw passed away November 5, 2013 and a dear father, Jack (John) Bradshaw passed away May 28, 1977.

HAYCOCK - In loving memory of a dear mother and a special grandmother, Verna Haycock, who passed away September 29, 2006.

REV. RAYMOND MARTIN In loving memory of a dear husband, father and grandfather who passed away November 14, 2015.

A poem by Patsy Stambaugh Deskins

If you could see me now You wouldn’t shed a tear. Though you may not understand Why I’m no longer there. Remember my spirit that is the real me Because I’m still very much alive. I’ve just been set free. Oh, if you could only see! I have beheld our Father’s face And I’ve touched my Saviour’s hand All of Heaven’s angels rejoiced As I entered the Promised Land. The beauty is beyond words And nothing could compare. I’ve even seen your mansion And someday I’ll meet you there. In God’s time, someday... I will see you again.

Always remembered, Winnifred and family.

SHORE - In loving memory of a dear husband, Robert, who passed away November 7, 2009. He left us quietly with his thoughts unknown, But he left us a memory we are proud to own, So treasure him Lord, in Your Garden of Rest, For when on earth he was one of the best. Lovingly remembered and deeply missed by his wife Wanda and family.

Fallen L&A soldiers part of video tribute BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

In an effort to tell the story behind some of the names on the L&A cenotaph in Napanee, Frontenac and Lennox Addington Family and Children Services has produced a series of short videos. Found online at www.facsfla.ca/remember, the videos provide a bit of background on Cpl. Frank Edmund Davern, Pte. William Earl McCumber and Pte. William McAfee. All three were from Napanee and all served in the 21st Battalion during the First World War. None of them made it home.

“It’s been 100 years since the First World War. For many who drive by or walk past the cenotaph on Thomas St. E in Napanee these are just names carved in stone. This year, we’re helping Napanee remember who these men were, how they lived and how they died for their country,” said John Suart, manager of community relations for FLA Family and Children Services. Working with Napanee Legion Branch 137 historian Al Lloyd and the Lennox and Addington Museum and Archives, researchers were able to find out quite a bit about the three young men.

WE WILL REMEMBER THEM

112A Industrial Blvd., Napanee

Davern was in high school when the war broke out. Lying about his age, he joined the 21st Battalion in 1915 as a 17year-old, working as a signaller. During the Battle of the Somme, he earned a Military Medal for bravery for his work in keeping communication open, which proved to be crucial to their victory. He did similar work at Vimy Ridge. He died a few months later in the attack of Hill 70, when shrapnel pierced his leg, causing him to die three days later at the age of Seth DuChene 19. The videos, produced the Family and Children’s Services of Frontenac and

Lennox and Addington, tell the stories of three local soldiers who were killed SEE NAMES | PAGE 33 > in the First World War, and whose names are on the L&A cenotaph.

REMEMBRANCE DAY 2016

NAMES | Third year for Remembrance videos CONTINUED FROM PAGE 31 McCumber, who was working as a blacksmith in Napanee, was conscripted to war on Dec. 3, 1917. On Aug. 15, 1918 he transferred to the 21st Battalion where he served on the front lines in France during the Last 100 Days campaign that would ultimately end the war. He was killed in action at the age of 22. McAfee, who was born in Napanee, was working as a painter in Deseronto when he joined the cause in January 1916. He was fighting in the frontline trenches for a month when he developed pneumonia that would ultimately claim his life in

March 1917 at the age of 27. Included in the videos are photos of their original enlistment documents including their casualty notices. A portion of a letter written by Davern a few days before he died is also read by one of the Legion narrators. Through connections with the Legion, they were able to track down two of McCumber’s nieces, who appear in one of the videos. “The First World War is a challenge I think for anyone, whether you’re in elementary school, high school or even an adult, to really be able to relate to this war that happened 100 years ago,” said Suart. “However, that in many

ways is the point of Remembrance Day and it’s the point of the project, to make these names that are carved in stone on that cenotaph on Thomas Street to really come alive. These were real people.” Suart says he hopes the videos will help get the message across that these young men were just ordinary people who answered the call for their country. “They were just regular guys,” said Suart. “In many ways we look at war, because we’ve seen an action movie or we played a game, but the real truth about WWI and all wars is they were fought by real people who were just regular folks put in a terrible situation. There’s not too

much glory in war but there’s a lot of sacrifice and a lot of commitment. Canada asked these guys to go and they went. They paid with their lives and we have to remember that.” This series of videos marked the third year FLA Family and Children Services have released videos that honour local veterans. With roots that go back 122 years, the agency has been helping local families deal with the tragedies of war dating back to the Boer War. During the world wars they assisted families on the home front as well as working with immigration to bring children out of the war-torn parts of Europe.

Which was all fine until he disappeared into the washroom. Once he had relieved himself, there was this blood curdling shout from his direction, ‘Loooooiiiissss!!!’And that is the end of the story. Today we continue to tell our stories, while remembering those who told stories before us. Ross Hawthorne, Bill Hartnoll, and many more, cut a wide garden path that many Canadians followed willingly. As a result, we have learned how to garden successfully using methods, tried and true, recommended by the best of communicators. The sports, weather, ‘news’ and automotive genres all have their heroes from the past. We have ours. Which brings me to the point of this message. With myriad of changes in the communications field there are more opportunities for us to connect with Canadians and inspire them to pick up the trowel and get gardening. For those who garden, to encourage them to garden more. And our message is now expanded into areas that touch on the environment, food, ‘off the ground’ gardening and birding. If this is a topic that interests you, I would be delighted to share my own thoughts on the subject.
