Ground broken for Hugh O’Neil Friendship Garden By Erin Stewart

Trenton – Mr. Quinte “would be so pleased and so honoured and so are we,” said Hugh O’Neil’s wife Donna at the sod turning ceremony for the Hugh O’Neil Friendship Garden. Community members, local politicians and O’Neil’s family members gathered at the location of the friendship garden honouring the late Hugh O’Neil, adjacent to the Roy Bonisteel tribute garden at the Trent Port Marina, to kick off the construction of the garden on Monday Sept. 26. “It’s very, very moving to think that people care enough to honour him in this fashion,” said Donna. “I want to thank them most heartily, for coming up with the idea and seeing it through until we’re finally getting a start now.” The final design for the friendship garden received final approval in early September from Quinte West’s city council and construction for the garden will now begin. The design of the garden includes a monument, four feet wide and two feet high, with a picture of O’Neil and the inscription “Hugh O’Neil Friendship Garden. Come my friends and rest awhile,” as the main feature. There will also be five plaques

with life chapters representing the different parts of O’Neil’s life. “We hope it will be a peaceful place where people can come and sit and reflect and enjoy the beautiful surroundings,” said Donna. The sod turning ceremony was followed by a celebration of O’Neils life at Seasons Dufferin Centre in Trenton where the Wrought Iron Roots provided an evening of musical entertainment. John Williams, Hugh O’Neil Friendship Garden Committee co-chair and former Quinte West mayor, made a presentation about O’Neil’s life and details about the friendship garden. “It’s an opportunity to tell the story about Hugh,” said Williams. “We’re looking for some donations still so a lot of people obviously would know him that live there so it’s a good opportunity for them to participate if they like, but it’s a little evening with some entertainment.” Williams said the committee is well on its way to raising the $60,000 needed to fund the garden, sitting at over $35,000 raised. The friendship garden is expected to be complete in spring 2017. Donations for the garden can be sent to Hugh O’Neil Friendship Garden, Box 427, Trenton, ON, K8V 5R6.
