Councillor John Jacobs passes suddenly

By Mark Ribble LEAMINGTON — The Municipality of Leamington is mourning one of its most respected veteran councillors, with the sudden death of John Jacobs. Jacobs collapsed at his home early Monday morning and did not survive. The 80-year-old was in the middle of his third term of office, being first elected in 2010. He often took the less-popular position on council, and went on record earlier this year to oppose the termination of the O.P.P. contract in Leamington.

Expecting?

Always easy to talk to, Jacobs never shied away from an interview request and was always gracious and approachable. “We are deeply saddened by the passing of our dear friend and council colleague,” said Leamington Mayor Hilda MacDonald. “On behalf of council and municipal staff, I would like to express our sincere condolences to John’s wife Donna and family. John was dedicated to serving the people of Leamington and ensuring their concerns and interests were brought forward to the council table. He will be sadly missed.”

Deputy Mayor Larry Verbeke shared a close friendship with the late councillor. “John was one hell of a guy,” he said. “Adored and respected by all who knew him.” Verbeke talked about the two of them remaining close through the COVID pandemic. They talked daily and spent time together outside of council. Although they’d know each other for a long time, the pair grew really close over the past few years. “I told him he was like my older brother,” he says. “My heart goes JACOBS — Page 2

He always gave 110 per cent.” Councillor John Hammond — another veteran of the municipal political scene — says he and Jacobs reconnected upon Hammond’s return to council in 2014. “John and I go way back to the days when he was on ambulance and I was on the fire department,” said Hammond. “We shared many coffees over those years, attending fires and accident scenes.” Hammond took it a step further to talk about their younger days. “We were poker buddies for many years,” he said. “He will be deeply missed.” It isn’t just current council members who are affected by Jacobs’ un-

“He was one of the council members I trusted most,” he said. “I am just beside myself.” Corey Robertson, President of The Bank Theatre offered his condolences on behalf of the theatre group. “John Jacobs was a great supporter of The Bank Theatre, as he was with all things Leamington. John served as the town representative on the board of directors several years ago and was on the steering committee for The Bank Theatre when we first began our vision”, said Robertson. “His guiding hand played an important role in bringing the dream of our theatre renovation to fruition.

Tough decision to cancel Talking Over Turkey 2020 By Mark Ribble LEAMINGTON — After much deliberation and tough decision-making, Talking Over Turkey 2020 has been cancelled. The annual event, spearheaded by Mike and Deanna Diab, has become a welcomed gathering for area residents for four straight years. Unfortunately, the decision had to be made to cancel the 5th annual Talking Over Turkey, due to COVID-19 restrictions.

“We just couldn’t ask over a thousand people to congregate and take any chances,” said Mike Diab. “Out of an abundance of caution, we had to cancel the event.” For the Diabs, Talking Over Turkey has become more than just an event — it’s something they’ve done from the goodness of their hearts to help people in need during the holidays. About 65 volunteers and 85 donors and spon-

sors were also involved, as they gave away 640 food boxes last year, which contained a turkey, potatoes, stuffing, canned goods and produce. “All of their hard work allowed us to bring it to this level,” said Diab, although he and Deanna spend countless hours of their own time behindthe-scenes. Some of those donors have been hit hard by the pandemic as well. Diab says all is not lost

when it comes to helping, however. He is encouraging those who can, to go out and donate individually to a family in need. “We will be out in the community helping other organizations,” he said. “Every person in Canada has the ability to do something to help.” The Diabs looked at alternative methods of distribution, such as drive-thru pick up, but in the end, realized that it just wouldn’t be the same. “A lot of people who benefit from this, can’t afford a car,” he said. Over 1000 people lined up at the Highbury Canco grading lots on Sherk Street last year, and Diab felt that crowd control would be almost impossible under the current COVID climate. “People have no idea the magnitude of this project,” said Leamington Mayor Hilda MacDonald. “To Mike and Deanna — thank you for all you have done and we’ll see you next year.” Planning is already un-

Mike and Deanna Diab at last year’s Talking over Turkey event. Sun photo 2019

derway for a 2021 return of Talking for Turkey and Diab thinks they will know by mid-summer if it’s a go. “Hopefully, we’ll have a better handle on the COVID numbers by then and can make a decision to move forward,” he said. With an elderly father and mother-in-law in the

high-risk group, he felt that being cautious was the right thing to do. Meanwhile, the Diabs will get to work helping others make Christmas a little brighter for families who are suffering. They hope local residents will follow their lead and help out where they can.

Last year’s Talking over Turkey attracted over 1,000 people looking to get help with their Christmas meal. This year’s event, like many others, has been cancelled due to COVID restrictions. Sun photo 2019

LDSS students develop ESL Cafe to promote learning, friendship By Mark Ribble LEAMINGTON — The Leamington District Secondary School Inter-

national Baccalaureate students continue to outline their projects as they make their way through

their Grade 12 year. The students are encouraged to consider the United Nations sustainability Goals when looking at global issues for the IB-CAS projects. The LDSS goal is to develop well-rounded, confident learners, who make positive contributions to the world. Isabel Unger, Anouk Weber and Sabina Tillinger got together as a group and tackled an issue that was very important to them. They connect with goal number 4 on the U.N. sustainability list — Quality Education — that considers inclusive and

equitable education. The trio discovered that they can make a difference in the world by taking action in their own community. Isabel, Anouk and Sabina formed an ESL (English as a second language) Café, where they held gatherings of students in an informal space for friendship, community and to help improve their English skills. The ESL Café began last October and ran until the Christmas Break, but hadn’t yet resumed when the COVID crisis shut down Ontario schools. Yet, the trio felt they

gained so much from the experience in a short amount of time. “We feel like we’ve experienced a lot of growth,” said Anouk. “For me, I was able to gain confidence talking in front of a group and it really forced me out of my comfort zone.” Isabel agreed with her partner. “It was a very understanding, very positive space,” she said. The students who participated gained valuable skills and met new friends that they may not have normally had contact with at the school. About 20 students regu-

larly attended the café, but sometimes, it was standing room only. “We had up to 50 people at certain times last school year,” said Sabina. The trio felt that the café was well received and really needed, especially for new Canadians. “It benefited everyone,” said Isabel. “We got to know people who we could now say hi to in the hallway. It bridged a divide.” The students hope that eventually, they’ll be able to resume the café, but COVID restrictions currently prevent that from happening.

Local author publishes first book LDSS students Sabina Tillinger, Anouk Weber and Isabel Unger developed a special meeting place where students with English as a Second Language (ESL) could learn and share friendship.

LEAMINGTON — Lucilia Afonso’s new book, On Broken Wings, has been released on Amazon and the local author couldn’t be more pleased. The story, about a troubled teen who has endured a life a turmoil and violence, was written in 1986, but Afonso recently decided to publish the work. The former Drama and English teacher at Cardinal Carter Catholic

High School based the characters on a composite of students and adults she’s met along the way. “None of the events in the book took place, but had the potential to come very close,” she said. The story is aimed at young adults and Afonso is hoping that young people with similar problems will take away some hope for a better life. “They often feel shame when they see others with a perfect life, while theirs is not,” she said. The story follows Devin, a typical teen, living behind closed doors in a world of turmoil. On Broken Wings is gritty, honest and authentic — a moving portrait of a life spent trying to please a mother that can’t seem to love him back. Afonso spent over 30 years in the teaching profession and saw many situations where she felt kids were being abused or mishandled in some way. The now retired mother of two girls, included the Kids’ Helpline at

The solution to COVID-19 is right in front of your nose. Daniella Torreon, left and her Kumon teacher, Nancy Armstrong at the sign in front of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Leamington. Sun photo

Local six-year-old named top reader in Canada By Mark Ribble LEAMINGTON — Nancy Armstrong’s Kumon Math and Reading Centre has helped countless children for the past 26 years with their math and reading skills. In August of this year, one of her students achieved #1 standing in all of Canada for her reading skills. Six-year-old Daniella Torreon of Leamington is a Grade 1 student at St. Michel, and has been enrolled in the Kumon course after school for about two years. “When she first started, she was working with single letters,” said Mrs. Armstrong. “Now, she’s reading at a Grade 5 level.” Daniella and her older brother Tyler both attend Armstrong’s Kumon Centre

and they enjoy the extra help they get with their reading. “I love reading!” exclaimed Daniella, beaming from ear-to-ear. “It’s a great achievement for her,” says her dad, Troy. “And something special for our small town.” For Armstrong, it’s the first time one of her students has achieved that lofty status. “We’ve had many students do very well with the program, but to have Daniella be named tops in the country is a special thing,” she said. A large sign in front of the St. Paul’s Lutheran Church at Seacliff and Sherk proclaims Daniella as number one. Kumon’s classes are held inside the church on Mondays and Thursdays from 3:306:30 pm.

The Megan’s Mission fire truck was at Libro Credit Union in Leamington on Wednesday, November 4. Sun photo

Special fire truck tours county LEAMINGTON — A GoFundMe page set up for an Amherstburg woman has received a boost from a county-wide tour of a special fire truck. The fire truck, painted pink in honour of Megan’s Mission, stopped at several Libro Credit Union locations, including Leamington and Kingsville last week. Megan Monk is the wife of Amherstburg Fire Clerk Dan Monk, and his firefighter mates decided to get the truck painted pink in her honour. Many visitors had already signed the side of the fire truck with marker, showing their support for Megan and her family. Many more signatures are expected during the tour. As of Friday,

the tour had raised about $3800 through donations at the truck. The 27-year-old mother of two was recently diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. In addition, she has a two-month-old baby at home, so both she and her husband have to take a leave from work to focus on her health. The GoFundMe page goal was $60,000 and that goal had been reached as of Wednesday, November 4. In mid-October, 15 members of the Amherstburg Fire Department shaved their heads in Megan’s honour. If you’d like to help the family by donating, go to gofundme.com and search for Megans Mission.

With Remembrance Day being today, it ushers in that good old holiday season.

We did 47 banners last year and added another six this year. The COVID crisis re- Mark Ribble ally restricted us from going all out and advertising for more families who want to honour their loved ones. Next spring, we hope to add another 40 or so to the mix, so if you’ve thought about getting one done for a veteran in your life, stay tuned. So we will store the 53 honourees away until next fall. It’s a little bit of a task to get them hung indoors so they stay dry all winter and summer, but it’s so worth it. The pleasure we derive from doing this is not for self-satisfaction, but to

Leamington’s cenotaph was first erected in 1939 By C. Scott Holland Leamington’s cenotaph — honouring its war dead — has a history as unique as the area. The current cenotaph in Memorial Park is not the original location. In 1921, the town created a small graveyard site at Lakeview Cemetery to commemorate those area men and women who died fighting in the Boer War and WW1. The large monument with its many names came later. The Leamington Legion began a drive in the early 1930s to raise funds to have a proper monument created and erected to honour Leamington and Mersea’s men and women whose lives were lost in ‘The Great War.’

By 1939, Leamington’s council joined the campaign and enough funds were raised to complete the task. The town owned a small triangle of land in front of the First Baptist Church and it was on this piece of property that the new monument would be placed. The area would be roughly 15 by 18 ft. with a four-foot foundation for the 14 ft. high Canadian gray granite monument. The stone monument was made by Frank J. O’Heron (owner of O’Heron Monuments) and would contain the phrase: ‘Lest We Forget. In memory of the men and women of Leamington and Mersea who served in the Great War and gave their lives for King and country — 1914-1918.’

It was unveiled on Oct. 22, 1939 with Leamington Legion Br. 84 president Dr. H. R. Nicklin presiding and over 1,500 citizens attending the ceremony along with 300 area WW1 vets who survived the conflict. Mrs. John Bell whose son sacrificed his life in WW1, stepped up and removed the Union Jack from the monument to reveal it. The monument would be moved as Talbot St. West underwent a couple of changes throughout the years but would stay in front of the Baptist Church until 1988, when a new monument site was proposed for the Legion’s Memorial Park. Back then, there were two options for its positioning on the south side of the

park. Option one was facing NE and situated near the corner of Princess and Mill St. Option two was closer to the south side parking lot. The Legion chose the spot where it sits today and at the first ceremony that year, the only part of it regretfully missing was a special poppy memorial, which was being created in Michigan. Legion President Al Hodgins presided over the ceremonies and the subsequent ceremonies have gone rather well, often drawing large crowds to honour our heroes of all wars.

Letter to the Editor

People should clean up after their dogs Dear Editor: I returned from a funeral at Reid Funeral Home this morning, November 9. After the funeral, I was talking to someone as we went to our cars. Our car was in front of Reid’s to go to the cemetery. Next to the sidewalk going to the car, I noticed that my shoes encountered something rather solid. It was dog mess and obviously a large dog. Because my thoughts were about

the funeral, I forgot about it and when I came home into my house, I changed my shoes to my house shoes. I walked around and then I went and picked up the shoes I had worn and found that there was a mess all over the side of one shoe and a bit on the edge of the sole. The shoes went out to the garage and need to be cleaned up. Needless to say, I was not happy at all and cleaning up a mess like that is not pleasant.

Prior to finding that, we had walked from that area around parts of the house, thankfully in our house shoes, but they had been in the area before changing from the filthy shoes. We have now cleaned and sanitized any and all areas that were affected, including a mat. Now, my message to irresponsible owners of large dogs: We walk in the marina area regularly, and we are always seeing messes left by large dogs at least

95 per cent of the time. Irresponsible dog owners are the most ignorant people and when I say ignorant, consider that a compliment. The problem is not the dog, it is the bad owners who will not clean up after them. And

of all places — in front of the funeral home with mourners leaving the service. I hope the guilty party gets this message. Carol Hylton, Leamington

Poppy painting party produces a plethora of painted poppies LEAMINGTON — For the past few weeks, about 15 friends, all tenants of Seacliff Heights II in Leamington, have been painting Remembrance Rocks in the common room there. Tracy Sharron and Karen Demarell spearheaded the idea after Karen saw some painted rocks on a Facebook page. So, the two organized a regular PPP (poppy painting party) in the common room, being careful to adhere to social distancing and room capacity guidelines. “We had 10 at a time come in shifts,” said Tracy. “This way, we could include everyone who wanted to paint.” The group created about 57 painted stones, rocks and pieces of shale of all shapes and sizes. Each one was adorned with a poppy or other patriotic symbol, and some of them were even done in honour of veterans from their families. Demarell, who has experience dealing with crafts and tole painting, was able to produce some patterns and give some guidance and reference to the painters. The result was four colourful baskets full of nicely painted rocks — all commemorating Remembrance Day in some way. They contacted area Legions and donated most of the pieces of art to each of them, while keeping a few to lay on the

steps at the cenotaph in Leamington. “We want to go there and put them on the steps,” said Sharron.

LEAMINGTON-KINGSVILLE — The annual Salvation Army Christmas Kettle Campaign will kick off on Monday, November 16 all across Canada. That will include Kingsville and Leamington, where volunteers will man the kettles at certain locations. “We are taking all precautions due to COVID,” said Kettle Campaign Coordinator for this area, Sarah Parsons. “We have nine different locations ready to go.” The campaign runs until Christmas Eve and Parsons says they are still looking for volunteers to ring the bell. New this year, at three of the locations will be a Tip Tap device to allow you to make a cashless, touchless donation. Those devices will be on the kettles at

Zehrs in Kingsville , as well as Walmart and Real Canadian Superstore in Leamington. Other locations will be cash donation only and they include Food Basics in Leamington, Giant Tiger in Leamington, Freshco in Leamington and Kingsville, and LCBO stores in Leamington and Kingsville. The Salvation Army Christmas Kettle Campaign is their primary fundraiser and has been a staple in holiday storefronts for 130 years. All donations collected locally will stay within the community. If you’d like to volunteer as a bell ringer, email sarah.parsons@salvationarmy.ca.

Remembrance Day Memorials Families and Friends Remember IN MEMORIAM

MAURICE SNOOK November 5, 1918 – August 24, 2011

Dad, we miss you on this 10th Remembrance Day without you here. We remember one of your favourite prayers: It is the Veteran, not the preacher, who has given us freedom of religion. It is the Veteran, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the Veteran, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the Veteran, not the campus organizer, who has given us freedom to assemble. It is the Veteran, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. It is the Veteran, not the politician, who has given us the right to vote. It is the Veteran, who salutes the Flag, It is the Veteran, who serves under the Flag, Eternal rest grant them, and let perpetual light shine upon them. AMEN As always, but especially today, we thank you for the sacrifices made so unselfishly by you and all of our Canadian Veterans many years ago and since. We will never forget your sacrifices and the gifts of freedom that you have given to many abroad and to us here, on Canadian soil. We will always remember, appreciate, and respect these freedoms and those who have made them possible. We love you and we miss you dearly. Mary-Maureen & Jay

n the fall of 1942 he joined other Canadians in the RAF’s 81st Squadron in North Africa as a fighter pilot flying Spitfires. He saw considerable combat in the ensuing months. He survived being shot down twice and in February 1943 was awarded the Distinguish Flying Cross. By the fall of Tunis in May 1943 he was an acknowledged “ace” with 5.5 included in his official record.

e was returned to Canada where he established himself as a highly regarded flight instructor. However, in the spring of 1944 the Allies were desperate for experienced fighter pilots as air combat intensified in the build-up to the D-Day invasion of Normandy. As a result, F.O. Fenwick was reassigned to the RCAF’s 401st Squadron in Britain. He survived less than a month in his renewed combat role, being shot down for a third and final time on June 21, 1944 – an apparent victim of “friendly fire”. His family was living in Sioux Lookout, Ontario at the time of his death.

lying Ofﬁcer Fenwick was obviously a brave, determined young man who answered the call with dash and vigour. A lot of life was packed into 23 short years. Although we can’t thank him, we can’t forget him, he did his part to make ours one of the world’s great countries.

F I

.O. Fenwick was one of the ﬁrst to be buried in the Beny Sur Mer Canadian War Cemetery. His gravestone reads: n kind remembrance of one who gave all for his country, you and I and peace.

Letter to the Editor

Public works staff deserves credit in beautification of Leamington Dear Editor: I’m writing to express my appreciation to the town of Leamington for the beautification of the waterfront, marina and parks, all featuring countless stunning beds, huge tubs and hanging baskets of flowers. Particular thanks to manager Ken Brown and dedicated staff of Public Works for this continuous planting and upkeep. Ken tells me that it was the Public Works staff, who took initiative this summer for the heavy task of restoring the Monarch Butterfly Trail leading uptown from the marina. At any of the fifteen or so large restored beds, it was a thrill to see dozens of Monarch Butter-

flies fluttering about to sip their favourite nectar — this region’s support for their long and daunting migration to Mexico. On any given day of favourable weather, from the deck of our home near the marina, Betty and I observe the constant flow of folks, from toddlers to oldsters, strolling, jogging, running, bicycling. They are all joined in a desire for a healthy lifestyle, while taking advantage of this beautiful venue by Lake Erie. Leamington continues to work on extending this green environment uptown, with likes of the new parkette. In stark comparison with the floral and tree-lined residential streets, there

is a long way to go in commercial areas. Where shopping centres, parking lots and stores are mostly laid down as if in the Sahara Desert, and many stretches of mainstreets featuring that ugliest of features, hydro poles in place of tree canopy cover. Leamington needs an Environmental Master Plan to address the need for a cleaner, greener, healthier and sustainable environment. As one small step, the town now has an account where people and businesses can make an ECO difference. Donations to the Municipality of Leamington can be directed to “Trees for CiB Project” (CiB stands for Communities in Bloom Committee, Leamington

Happy 88th Birthday Erle Nash ~ November 11 ~

We wish to extend our sincere thanks for the sympathy and kindness shown to us by our family, friends, and colleagues, near and far, in the sudden passing of our much-loved son, brother, grandson and uncle Benjamin David Tofﬂemire. Thanks also to the ICU staff at the Royal Jubilee Hospital in Victoria for their compassionate care. Special thanks to RC Spencer Associates for the beautiful Tulip tree in Ben’s memory. Thank you to all those who sent ﬂowers, food, made donations, cards, and condolences in Ben’s remembrance. To those who shared memories and feelings of Ben, it was endearing to know how Ben touched so many in life and changed so many in his passing. He will be greatly missed, and his smile, kindness and generous spirit will be remembered and cherished in our hearts and memories forever. Your own humanity and your own caring for others, like Ben, will be the greatest tribute of all..

Plus, LDSS has planted 22 mature maple trees to shade watchers at the sports track. Next spring, $11,500 worth of sapling trees will be planted at the Hillman Marsh area, thanks to the Windsor Essex Community Fund grant won by Anna Dawson of LDSS.

Sports flashbacks go back to November 1977 This week’s flashbacks come from November 1977. Firebirds win by forfeit, but lose two The Leamington Erie Sport Minor Atom Firebirds drop a pair of games on the weekend, but managed to pick up a forfeit win when Harrow did not show up. According to OMHA rules, Leamington’s starting lineup had to take the ice and line up for the faceoff. Mike Dunmore carried the puck into the empty Harrow zone and fired a shot off the post. The rebound landed on the stick of Kevin Kish, whose backhander missed the net. The puck eventually founds its way to Mark DeBlock, who put it in the empty net and made it official. Midgets dump Amherstburg The Leamington Major Midgets scored six times in the third period to beat Amherstburg 10-2 last Tuesday. Howard Forsyth and Rick Butler each scored twice to lead the attack. Singles were scored by Bruce Berthelot, Gary Gayer, Mike Wladarski, Ron Martin, Matt Phibbs and Steve Lewis. Omsteads trounce Sandwich The Wheatley Omsteads moved into second place in the Seaway Intermediate C Hockey League with a 6-1 drubbing of Sandwich West on the weekend. The teams were tied 1-1 after two, but Wheatley scored five goals in the third for the win. Jamie Stickney scored twice for the winners, with single goals to Dave Omstead, Jim Pearson, Terry Jackson and Tim Omstead. Juveniles beaten by Sandwich The Sandwich West Juveniles came into Leamington and took a 7-4 victory on the weekend. Officials called 25 minor penalties in the contest, with 17 of those going against Leamington. Leamington’s goals were scored by Jim Ciacelli, Jim Horvath, Lionel Collison and Jamie Arquette. Swedes here New Year’s Day A Swedish Minor Midget team will be in Leamington to play an exhibition game against the Leamington Glass Minor Midgets on January 1. The Swedes are on a five-game exhibition tour of Southwestern Ontario. The Swedish players will be billeted in local homes overnight. Kingsville Atoms drop game to Tilbury The Kingsville Atom Travel Team lost to Tilbury 4-2 on Sunday at Tilbury. Ken Simpson and Tim Fowler had the Kingsville goals, with help from Robert York, Mike Simpson, Jeff Renaud and Eric Malott. Mushroom Farm beats Sanford Pro The Kingsville Mushroom Farm beat Sanford Pro Hardware 3-2 in Kingsville Peewee house league play on the weekend. Paul Stone had the game winner for the Mushroom Farm with just over a minute left to play. Ken Carther and Martin Gambling had the other goals for the winners. Sanford’s goals were scored by Chip Campbell and Allen Cavers.

Lakeside Peewees won 1-0 overtime final in Buffalo By C. Scott Holland During the Christmas holidays in 1991, Leamington’s Lakeside Jersey Dairy PeeWees traveled to Buffalo to play in the 17th Annual Hornets Festival of Hockey. They were entered in the round-robin Minor PeeWee A competition. In the opening contest, the Jersey Dairy squad handled Buffalo as Jeff Robinson notched a hattrick to give the local boys a 5-1 win. However, the next two contests would provide them with tougher opponents. They faced a Toronto team and built a 2-0 lead on goals by Aaron McMath and Darby Cerovski. The Toronto squad fought back to gain

a 2-2 draw. In their next contest, they battled hard against Brampton. The game started at 7 am and Leamington dominated early and were physical but the combatants went through two scoreless periods before Leamington’s Jeff Robinson notched the only goal and Lakeside won it 1-0 thus earning a position in the finals with their points total. They faced Toronto in the final and it would be a classic game. Lakeside starter Jesse Garant eliminated any and all Toronto chances until the midway point of the contest, when Steven Bradley took over the netminding duties. Bradley faced a tense breakaway threat

right off, but thwarted the Toronto attempt. Neither side scored during regulation time, leaving the game in a rare 0-0 tie and thus headed to a five-minute overtime period. But like the previous three frames, both teams could not find the back of the net and a second overtime stanza was set. With 50 seconds remaining in the second OT period, Mike Mereszak and Greg Biekx hooked passes to connect with Jeff Robinson. As Robinson neared the Toronto net, he fell to the ice but chipped a shot that sailed under the crossbar to seal the championship victory.

Perfect record at 1987 Silver Stick for local midgets By C. Scott Holland The regional Silver Stick tournament held at Petrolia in late 1986 and early January 1987 became more of a showcase for Leamington’s Quick’s Auto Wreckers Midget team. They completed it by going a perfect 5-0 and were

the lone team in the division to do so. The victory allowed the team to advance to the North American Silver Stick tournament in Sarnia. The route to the finals and winning it, found Quick’s facing several good adversaries. They began by topping Windsor 6-2, then edged Paris 3-2 in overtime.

Southpoint Atoms continue local play Spectators were able to watch a good back and forth game between Southpoint Atom Grey and Blue teams this past weekend. Blue opened up the scoring and after that, the teams just kept trading scoring opportunities. For Blue, Sean Amaral and Sean Renwick led the team in scoring. Sonny Coppola played a great game in net, particularly when covering the scrambles in front of him. This is the 2nd time this season the two teams have met and Blue really picked up their game. For Grey, it was nice to see them try and balance their

attack. There seem to be more lead and cross ice passes being made to move the puck into the opponents’ end. Five players out of seven ended up scoring goals. London Hildebrand , Landon Carlini, Andrew Degoey, Connor Rumble-Anastacio and Ethan Snoek all scored goals for the Greys.

Kitty is a little picky about when she likes to be picked up and can get a little fussy so she would be best suited for a home with no young children where her boundaries can be respected. For the entire month of November the Windsor/Essex County Humane Society has waived the adoption fee for all cats aged 8 or older! Interested in adopting Kitty or any other animal from WECHS?

Belle River fell 4-1 and Essex went down 6-2, as the Wreckers turned aside all competition in the double knockout event. Because of the double knockout, Paris worked its way back up through the losers’ side and met Leamington in the finals. However, to win the Silver Stick, Paris had to beat Leamington twice while Quick’s only need to defeat Paris once to capture the title. Leamington nipped them in the finals 5-4, after rallying twice to grab and hold the lead. After one frame, it was knotted 1-1 and after 40 minutes Quick’s clung to a slim 4-3 lead. Mike Chambers paced Quick’s by drilling two goals while Steve Tennant, Mike Gayer and Greg Enns planted one apiece. Jamie Davie was selected as the Leamington MVP.

1986 Peewee title game was a close one By C. Scott Holland When it comes to house league championship games, they are often lopsided with one team easily disposing of the other. However, in the 1986 Leamington Minor Hockey League Peewee championship game, two teams struggled to generate offense, and in the end, Leamington Appliance prevailed 2-0 over Wheatley Mercer Sunoco. The first frame was scoreless and Wheatley had three powerplay opportunities, yet couldn’t succeed in cashing in. Early in the second, Leamington Appliance got on the board when Paul

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 Others may be making certain assumptions about you lately, Gemini. Their intentions are good, so don’t hesitate to reach out and lend them an ear.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Glowing compliments reach your ears, Leo. You will finally learn how much others respect you. Take the spotlight with grace and remain as composed as possible.

Cornies fed Jeremy Shaften and Shaften flicked it into the Sunoco net. That lone tally would remain as both teams tried to generate any offense. Sunoco received another two powerplay opportunities in the third, but couldn’t dent the Appliance armour and knot the game. Down 1-0 in the final minute, Sunoco pulled their goalie for an extra attacker. Once again, it was Appliance’s Jeremy Shaften who gathered a loose puck and tabbed an empty-net goal to seal the championship victory with 37 seconds remaining. Appliance goalie Scott Ellwood earned the shutout.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Planning an event or party will be lots of fun for you, Virgo. All the details are in order and you are a master of timing. Others may enlist your help, too. LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, now is your time to encourage others to turn their goals into reality. You’re a positive force in the lives of so many people, and others recognize that. SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, it may not be apparent to you, but you often make a very good role model. You tend to be driven and organized, and young people in your life can learn much from you.

Gillett winless in Sr. men’s hockey By C. Scott Holland The Leamington Senior Men’s Hockey League has had good turnout of its players so far. As in the previous two weeks, there has been one contest that went down to the wire, while the second one was a blowout. Gualtieri Farms caught fire in the second half to take Gillett Roofing 9-4 while Gabriele’s Home & Floor notched two goals late in their contest to edge Reid Funeral Home 6-4. Gillett Roofing are currently winless in three games, as their offense has been a bit lacking and their defense could sharpen up. Perhaps their breakthrough will come

soon. Gualtieri Farms 9 Gillett Roofing 4 The GF guns began rolling near the midway point and turned this game into a runaway. The GF squad was paced by Dylan Montague who ripped four goals while Greg Mastronardi planted two. Calyn Kir, Kyle Bowman, and Brett Babkirk unloaded for one apiece. The Gillett team just didn’t have the quality or number of shots needed to keep pace with GF. Tyler Clark banged two while Cody Cabral and Kyle Quick cranked one each. Gabriele’s 6 Reid Funeral Home 4

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Sometimes it’s a battle between two sides within you, Sagittarius. Your patient and impatient sides might be at war this week. Take a step back and reconsider your approach.

The RFH and Gabriele teams engaged in a very back-and-forth match which wasn’t decided until five minutes remained in the game. Cam Dawson was the Reid star as he triggered two while Chad Jeffery and Mike Simpson ripped one each. Gabriele’s scoring was led by Cale Phibbs who whipped two while Brian Simpson, JP Grineau, Paul Omstead and Pat Sonoski slipped in one apiece. Upcoming games: Nov. 16 - GF (Monty) vs RFH (Hatt) 7 pm; Chrysler (Roo) vs Gabriele (Sonar) 8 pm.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, let someone with high energy inspire you to be a go-getter in the week ahead. They may be on to something, and you can benefit from the extra hop in your step. AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 Even though change is good, it isn’t always comfortable, Aquarius. Transitions in your life may feel a bit challenging this week, but surround yourself with support. PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Dreams may have you tossing and turning, Pisces. Just remember that dreams are not necessarily indicative of what’s to come. Rest easy.

GOJHL adds new player safety position By C. Scott Holland In an effort to look after the safety of all their players, the Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League has created a new position: Director of Player Safety. In the wake of COVID, as well as teams hit in recent years by a menagerie of serious injuries and a need for impartial video review of submissions pertaining to injuries and other serious

calls, the GOJHL has initiated and filled the new position. Former AHL and NHL referee Chris Spada, a Fort Erie native, was appointed to the position. Spada was recruited by both those upper tier leagues in 2001. He officiated in 247 NHL contests and is considered one of the OHL’s top officiating managers.

CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, your life is going to start to equalize a bit. That means you can feel more relaxed, healthy and balanced. This is a great time to examine relationships and make plans.

1950 Merc was customized 60 years ago THE OLD CAR DETECTIVE Bill Sherk Ron Ploder of Newmarket, Ontario, writes: “At age 19 in October 1958, I bought my first car, a metallic green 1950 Mercury 4-door sedan with original sun visor. It came with a rebuilt motor from Elgin Motors. A hot rod mag had an article on customizing a 1950 Merc and that got me started. “I shaved off the trunk and hood emblems, then cut off the hood corners with my handy hack saw to make them rounded. Next I screwed the cut-off hood corners into the fender corners. “The next step was to remove the door handles on all four doors and install electric switches with starter buttons outside. Same done to the trunk lid. “Next I filled the gas filler lid on the left rear fender and moved the gas filler pipe into the trunk with my handy-dandy hack saw (no sparks, please!). “I moved the taillights down to the rear fender crease. I searched for a 1955 Olds grille bar and found one at a local wrecker. It took two weeks wages to pay for it! “How do I fill in all the holes? Someone mentioned a new filler product called fibreglass. I used too much hardener and didn’t work it in fast enough! “The green/rust colour primer from Canadian Tire made it look like Army vehicle camouflage. My father’s garage owner agreed to paint it for me. I picked for colour: 1958 Ford ‘Azure Blue.’ It looked really hot! “A magazine featured a 1949 Plymouth with ribbed bumpers! Off to the wrecker once again and had to earn more money. “I replaced the Merc taillights with a pair of 1949 Pontiac taillights. But they didn’t cover the holes left by the old Merc taillights! Good job I had extra paint. “With whitewalls too expensive, I installed portawalls. I put two-inch lowering blocks in the rear end, installed dual exhausts, and a set of ’55 Olds spinner wheel discs. I enjoyed driving it because nobody else owned anything like it. “Soon problems started with vapour lock. I sold the Merc and bought a 1956 Chevy Bel Air, but that’s another story. I’m always looking for stories. Email billtsherk@sympatico.ca.

Ron’s cool looking 1950 Mercury.

DELIVERY or CURBSIDE SOCIAL DISTANCING WITH YOUR FAMILY RESTAURANTS IN LEAMINGTON, KINGSVILLE AND WHEATLEY

Coats for Kids LEAMINGTON — Each fall, South Essex Community Council (SECC) puts out the call for new or gently used coats from the community for their annual Coats for Kids event. Due to increased safety precautions related to COVID-19, the agency had to get creative with collection this year, hosting drive-thru donation drop offs in October. Although scheduled collections dates have now passed, donations of winter coats and accessories (hats, gloves, mittens, scarves etc.) are welcome in any size, infant to adult, through drop off or pick up by contacting the agency directly. In 2019, SECC was able to distribute over 500 coats and accessories to those in need and they expect a similar outcome this year. SECC’s Coats for Kids program serves the Leamington, Kingsville & Wheatley area. This year, anyone in need of a winter coat should contact SECC to book an appointment. Individuals or families will be screened and required to wear masks while being outfitted with coats and accessories during their scheduled appointment. Coat distribution will take place at SECC’s Leamington office, 215 Talbot Street East. You can call 519-3268629 to book an appointment for Saturday, November 14 from 10am to 3 pm, Monday, November 16 from 1 pm to 4 pm, or Tuesday, November 17 from 3 pm to 8 pm.
