MIGRANT WORKER HEALTH FAIR RETURNS LEAMINGTON —The Migrant Worker Health and Information Fair returned Sunday, April 2 after a two-year hiatus due to COVID restrictions. The Migrant Worker Community Program (MWCP) held the event at the Roma Club in Leamington with several hundred people in attendance. Over 22 organizations and nearly 50 volunteers were on hand to offer support and provide a barrier-free access to healthcare and services in Windsor-Essex County for foreign workers. Free services included dental cleaning and oral health workshops, vision screenings, blood glucose testing, COVID-19 vaccinations, and mental health support. Also on hand were booths from Ontario Food and Vegetable Growers, University of Guelph and its Pesticide Education Program, Leamington Fire Services, Ontario Provincial Police and more. Here, volunteers Andrea Goerra, Barbara Pavedes and Estefania Torres aid foreign workers David Natty and Hopeton Dryden with registering and entering the many raffle items at the event.

In Memory of
Theresa Mastronardi July 3, 1956 to April 7, 2021
In loving memory of a dear husband, dad and grandpa who passed away ten years ago.
I’m holding back the tears today remembering anew, those wonderful and precious years spent happily with you. And I can’t think of anything I wouldn’t give to see, that lovable, familiar face that meant so much to me. Just to spend a day with you and laugh with you again, For since you’ve been gone life’s never been the same. Remembered today and always with love, Ruby, Tim, Deb, Blake, Duncan and Matthew XOXO
You left this world so quickly, We still wonder why, For the saddest part of all, You never said goodbye. You left us so many memories, To us you were so dear, No matter when we needed you, We always found you near. You gave us all you had to give, Gifts both big and small, But most of all you gave us love, The greatest gift of all.
Love Always, Perry, Matt, Kim, Dave & Ryder
