Local author releases new book
Repko, John
John passed away peacefully on November 10, 2020, in his 87th year. Devoted husband of Carole (King) for 65 years. Supportive father of Robert, Karen, and Paul. Predeceased by his parents Andrew and Zuzi, sister Kay (Victor) Barnett (2009), and brother Andy (2011). Survived by in-laws Louie and Joyce King, Allan and Jackie King, Sister-in-law Sandra Repko, 5 nieces, 4 nephews, and numerous lifelong dear friends. John started school at the Albertville schoolhouse. When classes began in the basement of the current St John de Brebeuf Church, he attended school there, until the new elementary school was built across the street. He completed one year of high school then left school to help his father in the fields. He continued to farm for the rest of his life. He started with tobacco and was proficient at climbing the rafters in the kiln. He then moved into growing handpicked tomatoes and pickles for Heinz. Meanwhile, he also grew acres of corn, wheat and soybeans. For several years, he also grew a small patch of pumpkins that were sold at the roadside. He was thrilled when he could afford to buy an Allis-Chalmers tractor that had a cab with air conditioning and AM/FM radio. In the “off season”, John enjoyed hunting and fishing. The family always included a dog and a cat. His love for the outdoors has been passed onto his children. John was able to enjoy decades-long friendships with several schoolmates, church friends, hunting friends, and neighbours. Saturday evenings were spent attending church and then playing cards with his in-laws. Cremation has occurred. Visitation will take place at Kendrick Funeral Home (Kingsville) on November 18 3-5pm and 6-8pm. Those wishing to attend visitation are asked to visit www.Kendrickfuneralhome.com to book an appointment under John’s name. Only those with an appointment will be allowed to visit with the family and masks are mandatory. Funeral Memorial mass at St. John de Brebeuf Catholic Church on November 19 at 10am. Interment entrusted to Kendrick Funeral Home at Kingsville Memorial Gardens. In lieu of flowers, we ask that you make a donation to a charity of your choice. Memories can be shared with the family at www.Kendrickfuneralhome.com

Chris Forman
LEAMINGTON — Local author Chris Forman has recently released his new book called True Wealth, which is not about investing or anything financial. True Wealth is a book about true stories that awaken your heart and stir your soul. “Meet outrageous characters who will have you laughing out loud,” he says. Forman invites readers to ‘rediscover themselves’ and renew their faith in humanity through his Twelve Jewels of True Wealth. The University of Windsor graduate, with a BA in Political Science has honed his personality and skills across North America and the Caribbean. While working in golf clubs, country clubs and hotels, he met his wife Nicole. They were engaged in the Ba-
hamas, married in Key West and currently reside in Leamington, where Chris is a professional bartender. True Wealth is Forman’s second book. The first book was called A New Way To Live. He believes the COVID-19 pandemic has revealed many global challenges that we all face, and personal choices that we need to make. His purpose is to open people’s eyes and hearts to the splendour of simply being alive and to guide everyone to the realization that they are already wealthy. His motto is, “Life is incredible — you just have to see it.” True Wealth is available on Amazon.ca and Amazon.com.
