Newspaper founder, longtime fire chief dies Special to the News

News - Howard Maguire, founder of the Stittsville News and longtime fire chief for Stittsville and Goulbourn, died last Sunday. He was 84. A resident of Stittsville for 60 years, he was born in 1930 in Harcourt, ON in the Haliburton Highlands area, one of a family of five brothers and three sisters. He began his career in the printing and newspaper business in 1945, beginning as an apprentice at the Bobcaygeon Independent weekly newspaper. He then secured a position as a linotype operator at the North Bay Nugget, moving on from there to the Chatham Daily News. He also helped out at the Dresden Times weekly newspaper at the same time. Howard, who married the former Molly Watson in 1950, took a job at the Government Printing Bureau in Ottawa in Nov. 1949. He ended up working there for six years before moving on to the Ottawa Journal daily newspaper. See HOWARD MAGUIRE, page 3

Howard Maguire retired as fire chief in 1990 Continued from page 1

Howard and Molly purchased a home on Elm Street in Stittsville in 1954. He always had the idea that he would like to own a weekly paper and with Stittsville showing signs of growth, he started the Stittsville News with the first edition on Dec. 12, 1957. He remained working for the Ottawa Journal but issued the Stittsville News once a month with the printing happening at the Lanark Era paper. Eventually he purchased printing equipment and rented a building behind the Bradley General Store on Stittsville Main Street. Howard was joined by his brother Lloyd in partnership and together they ran the business until 1972. While the newspaper was part of the business, commercial printing was an important aspect of it as well, printing everything from business cards to auction sale bills to booklets. The Stittsville News had switched to twice monthly publication in 1958 and became a weekly newspaper in 1961. The paper was sold to the Renfrew Mercury in July 1972. When Howard arrived in Stittsville, he applied to become a member of the village’s volunteer fire department. In 1957, he was accepted as a volunteer firefighter and became a captain in 1960 and deputy-chief in 1963. In 1967, Howard was appointed the volunteer fire chief of the Goulbourn-Stittsville Fire Department. After selling the newspaper, Howard

Howard Maguire was named the first full-time fire chief for Stittsville and Goulbourn township in 1972. Howard also served as secretary and later president of the Ottawa-Carleton Mutual Aid fire system. In 1985, Howard received the Ontario Fire Service “Long Service Medal” and in 1987, he received the “Exemplary Service Medal” for 30 years’ service. Howard retired as fire chief in 1990, being honoured with a retirement dinner at the Richmond Memorial Community Centre hall. After he moved to Stittsville, Howard, who loved baseball, became involved with the village’s Little League Baseball program. He and his brother Lloyd sponsored a team called “The Ink Spots” and Howard coached the team which won

the District championship and went on to play in higher level competition against Galt with the game broadcast live on CFRA radio. After moving to Stittsville, Howard and his wife Molly joined the Stittsville United Church where they have remained members to the present day. Howard taught Sunday School for 12 years and served on the Session for 13 years. He also served on the church’s Board of Trustees. In 1966, Howard and Molly sold their Elm Street home, purchasing the Thompson farm on Fernbank Road. In his spare time, Howard farmed, raising purebred Charolais cattle. In the lead-up to his retirement, Howard and Molly built a new home at the rear of the farm, facing onto Flewellyn Road. A part of the farm was sold for residential development. Howard is survived by his wife Molly, sons Jeffrey and Randy and daughters Linda and Susan, five grandchildren and three great grand children. Visitation will take place at the Garden Chapel of Tubman Funeral Homes on Richmond Road in Nepean on Thursday, Nov. 13 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. The funeral service is being held this Friday, Nov. 14 at 11:30 a.m. at the Stittsville United Church on Fernbank Road in Stittsville, followed by a reception. In memorial donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or the Ottawa Mission would be appreciated. R0012991088/1113

Two tie for first in People’s Choice balloting John Curry

Cottonwoods” shows that there is beauty in a gnarled tree with its yellow, red and green foliage. Second place in the People’s Choice voting went to Roseanne Facchin’s acrylic painting “Cardinal” which showed a bright red Cardinal perched on a tree branch. Third place in the People’s Choice balloting was another tie, with Aud Karin Sund’s “Blue Vase Phantasia” tying with Sheila Turner-Whalen’s fluid acrylic work “Image.” “Blue Vase Phantasia” shows a vase holding an assortment of flowers with a yellow and green background. “Image” is a macro view of a red floral scene. Those visiting the new exhibition “Paint It Black” are urged to fill out a People’s Choice ballot indicating a favourite work after viewing the exhibition. The owaa gallery at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex, where this “Paint It Black” exhibition is now on display, is open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., the same hours as the GRC itself.

Ballots for the People’s Choice voting can be found on the top of the large glass display case at the owaa gallery. Viewers of the exhibition are encouraged to fill out a ballot indicating a favourite work in the exhibition, dropping it into the ballot box on top of the display case. At the end of the exhibition’s run, these ballots are tallied up and the winners declared. The artists involved enjoy receiving this feedback via the People’s Choice balloting. Topping the People’s Choice ballot is considered quite an hour by the owaa artists. In the People’s Choice balloting for the “It’s A Wonderful Life” exhibition, two artists tied for first place. Sonia Tavares’ acrylic painting entitled “Street Dancers” tied with Louise Barker’s oil painting “Twisted Cottonwoods” for first place in the voting. Sonia Tavares’ painting “Street Dancers” depicts the joy of living as it is filled with numerous figures doing handstands and other dance moves. Louise Barker’s oil painting “Twisted

News - There’s a new exhibition now on display at the Ottawa West Arts Association (owaa) gallery in the lobby area of the Goulbourn Recreation Complex in Stittsville. This new exhibition, which began last Saturday and runs through to Friday, Jan. 9, 2015, is entitled “Paint It Black.” It features a variety of works by owaa members, such as Josie Walsh’s “Coal Creek,” Sonia Tavares’ “Black is Beautiful,” Denise Noonan’s “Tutu and Pearls” and Tammy MacAllister’s “Cove.” But there’s lots more and the exhibition merits a “look see” the next time that you are at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex. With the ending of one exhibition and the hanging of another, it means that the owaa has compiled the results of the People’s Choice voting for the last exhibition which was called “It’s A Wonderful Life.” This exhibition ran from September through to Friday, Nov. 7 at the owaa gallery.

Free recycling drop-off - for electronics and clothes john.curry@metroland.com

News - Do you have some unused electronics around the house that you would like to dispose of in an environmentally friendly way? And do you have some used clothing as well around the house that you would like to see go to help others? Well, you can achieve both goals thanks to a free electronics recycling drop-off being held by the Goulbourn Rockets girls peewee and bantam hockey teams that is also going to be a free used clothing drop-off. It’s all going to happen on Saturday, Nov. 22 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the southern portion of Brown’s Your Independent Grocer parking lot on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville. The electronics recycling drop-off will go to benefit these Goulbourn Girls Hockey Association teams while the used clothing drop-off will go to help those with cerebral palsy. Dropping off used clothing at this event provides you with a hassle free way to recycle this clothing and give back to the community by helping those with cerebral palsy. It is also environmentally friendly as it will keep this used clothing out of Ontario landfills.

A worthy national holiday

A

move to make Remembrance Day a statutory national holiday starting in 2015 is receiving support from all federal parties. It’s been a long time coming. The national day of mourning is already observed as a holiday by six provinces and three territories. But Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and Manitoba, comprising the majority of Canada’s population, do not recognize Remembrance Day as a statutory holiday. Federal employees already observe the holiday, and private businesses always have the option to give their employees the day off on Nov. 11. Many choose to remain closed through 11 a.m. In Ontario, Remembrance Day was removed as a general holiday in 1982 by the Progressive Conservatives under Ontario premier Bill Davis. The bill to make Remembrance Day a national statutory holiday, bill C-597, introduced by New Democrat MP Dan Harris, has passed second reading, receiving support from all federal parties. If the bill passes, it’s up to each of the provinces to pass

corresponding legislation. The legislation is certainly timely, as this year marks the 100th anniversary of the start of the First World War. Remembrance Day is also at the forefront in people’s mind following the deaths of two Canadian soldiers, the results of attacks in Quebec and Ottawa last month. The arguments against creating another statutory holiday are largely economic, stemming from the loss of productivity and therefore the sacrifice of profits. Compared to the sacrifice made by soldiers in past conflicts and wars – the ultimate sacrifice – this argument falls flat on its face. Sacrifice is a concept fresh on the minds of Ontarians who watched the funeral procession of Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, who was shot and killed by a gunman while standing guard at the National War Memorial on Oct. 22, travel from Ottawa to Hamilton. If it does become a statutory holiday, it’s up to Ontarians to take advantage of the day to contemplate the extent of their freedoms and their ultimate price.

COLUMN

Just make sure to keep the remembrance

T

here is renewed talk of making Nov. 11, Remembrance Day, a national holiday. An NDP private member’s bill has received government support and therefore has a good chance of passing. On the surface, that seems like a good idea. Remembrance Day is an important occasion, especially important this year in the light of tragic events. Making it a national statutory holiday would give recognition to this. But there is more to it. Creating a new national holiday would have other consequences that we might not like so much. In six provinces, Remembrance Day already is a holiday; in four provinces, including Ontario and Quebec, it is not. Furthermore,

means Remembrance Day ceremonies for students. Remembrance Day is special the way it is. What if it became a national holiday? Well, a lot depends on whether the stores are open. We know what happens here. Many people who have the day off flock to the shopping centres at 12:30. That seems to have little to do with remembering. Stores are closed all day in some provinces, open all day in others. In other parts of Ontario, stores are open all day. So in some ways, making Remembrance Day a national holiday would change little for many people. Lots of people already have the day off; many people can shop all they want, all day. Some of them might like the idea of shifting Remembrance Day to create a long weekend.

That’s distasteful and unlikely. But what we surely want to avoid in all this is making Remembrance Day a day off like any other. No matter how it is legally defined, Remembrance Day will continue to have a deep meaning for many Canadians. But the number of those Canadians could gradually diminish if efforts are not made to keep the day unique. One thing that makes the day special is that people pause in their duties at 11 a.m. for a moment of silence. Is that less likely to happen if they have no duties? Obviously, it cannot happen in schools if there is no school. The last point is important. It is through Remembrance Day observances in the school that the message of Remembrance Day is passed on and has a hope of enduring. The bill itself is generally worded. It just makes Remembrance Day a legal holiday across Canada.

specifics of how that holiday is observed are up to the provinces and municipalities. So it is up to them to ensure that the essence of Remembrance Day is not lost. Ottawa, the city, seems to have the right idea.

Calypso beat to be featured in part of Christmas concert Molly O’Connor

West Ottawa Ladies Chorus accompanist Eliana Kurilov, who has lived in Brazil, will be playing the calypso beat with passion. But there will be more of the calypso beat. The audience will be able to sing along with a favourite calypso carol, “Mary’s Boy Child.” And then there will be traditional carols including that Canadian favourite “Huron Christmas Carol,” providing music for virtually every taste.

The “West Ottawa Chorale,” a mixed choir established specifically for this upcoming concert which will include guest male singers performing along with members of the West Ottawa Ladies Chorus, will include in its musical offerings a rousing calypso number as well. Another feature of the upcoming concert will be a performance by the Trinity Handbell Quartet under the direction of Stuart Belson.

The density index tool is a new concept that, if approved by City Council, will regulate the lowest acceptable level of development permitted at key locations. Density refers to how much development there is on a lot, regardless of the shape or height of a building. What are Ottawa’s key locations? UÊ UÊ UÊ UÊ Ê UÊ Ê

SAFETY BEFORE BEAUTY “Personal Services Settings” (PSS) include businesses that most of us frequent on a regular basis and include a wide-range of services such as piercings, haircuts, manicures, pedicures, electrolysis, tattooing and body modification. Ottawa Public Health (OPH) works to inform and protect the public at these establishments by offering operator training and public education, and conducting regular health inspections of premises. Recently, OPH surveyed the public to see how often Ottawa residents access the various types of services.

To no one’s surprise, many respondents indicated that they had been to a hair salon and had received a manicure or pedicure. After all, who doesn’t like getting their hair and nails done! More surprising, however, was the high number of people who indicated that they have had at least one piercing or tattoo, and many had purchased more invasive, non-traditional personal service procedures such as body modification, tongue splitting and branding.

FAQS How often are Personal Service Settings (PSS) inspected? Public Health Inspectors conduct at least one inspection per year of all known PSS locations to ensure they meet all infection prevention and control practices, as outlined in the provincial PSS standards. Inspections are also done in response to complaints.

Why can’t I find an inspection report for the PSS location I am searching on ottawa.ca/PSSinspections? This website was launched in the past year and only recent inspection results are available. We are currently working on uploading past inspection reports. If you cannot find a PSS location or an inspection result for a known PSS, or if you want to submit a complaint Where can I find the latest inspection results of a or report an infraction, please call 613-580-6744 PSS? (TTY: 613-580-9656) Monday to Friday, 8:30 am to 4:30 In order to ensure that the public is well-informed with the pm to speak to a Public Health Inspector. most up-to-date inspection reports, residents can now visit ottawa.ca/PSSinspections to view the inspection OPH has developed five service-specific fact sheets that history of any PSS location.

Korean War veteran speaks at Remembrance banquet Special to the News

News - Retired Lieutenant-Commander William Robert “Bill” Black told about his 45 year naval and public service career as well as about the Korean War in which he served at the annual Remembrance banquet at the Stittsville Legion last Saturday evening. Lt-Commander Black, who is the president of the National Capital Chapter of the Korean Veterans Association of Canada, was the guest speaker for the banquet. And what a military and public service career he had. He had initially joined the Queen’s Own Rifles of Canada in Toronto but in 1951 he transferred to the Royal Canadian Navy as an engineering technician. He served with the surface marine on the destroyer HMCS Cayuga during the Korean War. During the height of the ensuing Cold War, he volunteered for submarine service and was posted to the 1st Submarine Squadron Royal Navy in Scotland. He spent most of his 33 years of service with the Navy at sea and serving with NATO on destroyers, fleet replenishing ships and submarines. After attending the Royal Naval Engineering College in the United Kingdom, he was posted as Ship Superintendent Submarines at HMCS Dockyard Halifax in Nova Scotia.

He then continued to serve at sea as an engineering officer on surface ships and had two commissions as Senior Technical Officer Submarines. In 1984, he retired from active service as Lieutenant-Commander (submarines). However, he continued to work for the Department of National Defence as Senior engineering Procurement Officer with the Canadian patrol Frigate program and later on with the Tribal Update and Modernization

project. He retired in 1993 after 45 years of naval and public service. Besides being president of the National Capital Chapter of the Korean Veterans Association of Canada, Bill Black is also a member of the Central Submarine Association and president of the HMCS Huron Association as well as being associated with the Naval Officers Association of Canada, HMCS Bytown Wardroom (Officers Mess) and Branch 593 of the Royal Canadian Le-

gion. Among those in attendance at the Remembrance banquet at the Stittsville Legion was Johnny Leroux of Stittsville who is a Korean War veteran. Others in attendance included Richard and Claire Leger, the Stittsville parents whose son Marc died in Afghanistan, and city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri. The head table was piped into the banquet by bagpiper Jordan McConnell of Stittsville.

Stittsville News - Thursday, November 13, 2014 13


I want to take a moment this week to honour one of Richmond’s most ardent volunteers. This is a gentleman that always put Richmond ďŹ rst whether he was serving on the City of Ottawa’s Rural Issues Advisory Committee, sitting as President of the Richmond Village Association or taking part in the development of the village’s Community Design Plan. This week, Bruce Webster, who has called Richmond home for 45 years, will be moving west to be closer to his family. Mr. Webster has taken an active role in making the rural part of Ottawa better, initially in the post-amalgamation Rural Summits and then with the Rural Council of Ottawa-Carleton and the Federation of Citizens’ Associations and, of course, his work with RIAC. He took that one step further in March 2010 when he registered to run to represent Rideau-Goulbourn on Ottawa City Council. Mr. Webster’s volunteerism runs far beyond politics, however, as he has also been very involved in minor hockey, canvassing for the Heart & Stroke Foundation and helping out as a driver for the Canadian Cancer Society. His passion for Richmond and dedication to our community will certainly be missed. I have always been impressed by Bruce’s commitment to his community and his passion for local issues. I have been fortunate to know him over these last eight years, through three elections. He always kept me on my toes and I think I am a better representative because of it. We’ll miss you Bruce, enjoy BC! McBean Street Bridge Sidewalk The City of Ottawa will begin construction work in this week on the sidewalk widening along the east side of the McBean Street Bridge. This work is being conducted to improve sidewalk access across the Bridge and allow for easier snow plowing during the winter. The work will be carried out by D-Squared Construction and is expected to last until the middle of December. The Constructor will take every precaution to minimize interruptions during the course of work. We would like to thank you in advance for your patience and co-operation. Energy East Pipeline Next Tuesday, the 18th of November, residents who may have questions or concerns on the proposed Energy East pipeline project, are invited to an Open House between 4:00pm and 8:00pm at the North Grenville Municipal Centre in Kemptville. The last open house was held in North Gower. After their ďŹ rst two rounds of public consultation, TransCanada ofďŹ cially submitted their project application to the National Energy Board on October 30, 2014. You can ďŹ nd more information about TransCanada’s proposal at www.energyeastpipeline.com and you can ďŹ nd out more about the National Energy Board at www.neb-one.gc.ca. The RVCA & Other City of Ottawa Boards and Committees On November 27th, I’ll be attending the monthly Board Meeting for the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority, in which we’ll be discussing the 2015 budget. The RVCA is one of many City of Ottawa committees and boards that we are currently recruiting for citizen members to serve on. This is a good opportunity to get involved with the City in an area of interest or expertise. Over the last four years, I have had the opportunity to sit on the RVCA, the Built Heritage Sub-Committee, the Pine View Municipal Golf Course Board of Management and serve as Council Liaison to the Environmental Stewardship Advisory Committee. All of these committees have citizen members and, in the coming weeks, we’ll be ďŹ lling those roles. To be eligible, you must be a resident of the City of Ottawa and 18 years of age or older. (City employees are not eligible.) You can get more information by visiting the City of Ottawa website at www.ottawa. ca or by contacting Carole Legault at 613-580-2424, ext. 28934, (TTY: 613-580-2401) or by e-mail at committees@ottawa.ca You can also learn more about becoming a committee/board member at our public information session on Thursday, November 13th between 6:00pm and 8:00pm at the Mary Pitt Centre, 100 Constellation Crescent.

Renowned fiddler at fundraiser John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - One of Canada’s most renowned fiddlers will be performing in Stittsville on Thursday, Nov. 27. Fiddler Louis Schryer, a four-time Canadian Grand Masters fiddle champion and eight-time Canadian Open fiddle champion, will be a special guest performer at the McKnight Family Benefit Concert that is being held at the Lions Hall on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville on Thursday, Nov. 27 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. This fundraising concert is being held to help out six year old Liam, a Constance Bay youngster who suffers from a rare disease called Dravet Syndrome. It’s going to be a night not only of fiddling but also of bluegrass music. Organizer Don Fletcher of Stittsville has lined up three bluegrass bands to play at the event, namely The Backsliders, Concession 23 and Hack’s & Buggies. It will be a musical night to remember, no doubt about it. Admission will be simply a suggested donation of $10 (or more) with the doors at the Lions Hall opening at 6 p.m. Everyone is welcome to attend. There will also be a silent auction and a 50/50 draw held during the evening. Catering for the event will be provided by Casa Dei Panini House of Sandwiches and Broadway Bar & Grill at Riverside South. Don Fletcher has gotten involved with fundraising to help in this fight against Dravet Syndrome because a coworker of his is the parent of six year old Liam, the youngster suffering from Dravet Syndrome. Dravet Syndrome is a genetic disorder of Chromosome 2, causing epilepsy and other neurological and development problems. Dravet Syndrome accounts for one percent of those suffering from epilepsy. Liam can and does suffer from over 100 seizures a day. He wants to return to school in grade one but cannot as yet due to medication issues. On Saturday, Sept. 20, a “Walk for the Kids� event was

held in Constance Bay, Liam’s home community, which raised funds for Dravet.ca, a volunteer-based Canadian charity dedicated to providing education, support, research and advocacy on behalf of Canadians living with Dravet Syndrome. The Stittsville Village Association (SVA) is helping out this Nov. 27 fundraiser for Liam by donating half of the items gathered for a silent auction at the recent Villagefest for use at this fundraiser for Liam. Villagefest on Saturday, Sept. 13 had to be cancelled due to rainy weather. A silent auction had been planned for Villagefest, with a variety of items

such as Kiwi Kraze certificates and a gift certificate for Cabotto’s Restaurant having been assembled for a Villagefest silent auction. Since this Villagefest silent auction never happened, the SVA has these items and it was decided that half of the items should be donated for use at this Nov. 27 fundraiser for Liam. The Stittsville District Lions Club is providing the use of the Lions Hall for the event and also will be running the bar at the fundraiser. The sound for the concert is being handled by David Hauraney. Another corporate sponsor of this event is Gunn Media.

When the heat goes out…

THE 11 THINGS YOU NEED TO CHECK

before calling for an emergency heating technician There is nothing worse than having your heat go out in the middle of winter but before you pick up the phone to call for emergency no heat service call there are 11 things you need to check that can save you money and embarrassment when it comes to fixing your heating system.

Before you call a technician

Electrical Panel Check 5. __ If the furnace has a breaker, has it been tripped? (If it has, then the switch will be between the ON and OFF positions.) If it has been tripped, it can be reset by switching it all the way OFF and then ON. 6. __ If the furnace has a fuse, has it blown? If so, it should be replaced. WARNING: If the breaker keeps tripping or the fuse keeps blowing, homeowners should call for service. Furnace Check 7. __ Is the furnace’s emergency shut-off ON? (If the furnace has this switch, it will be located near the furnace and look like a regular light switch only usually higher on the wall.) 8. __ Are all access doors and panels to the furnace secured? 9. __ If the furnace has a standing pilot light in the furnace, is it lit? 10. __ Is your furnace air filter clean? A dirty filter can block air flow. Outside Check 11. __ Is the venting clear of snow, ice or any other obstruction? In many circumstances, this checklist will identify what the problem is and offer you the homeowners a solution to save you money and embarrassment of having an emergency technician show up at your door unnecessarily. If the list above does not fix the issue t is time to call a licensed repair technician by following the next 3 steps: 1. Write down the make, model & serial number of your furnace (or boiler) if possible (this should be on a label on the equipment but oftentimes it can be very difficult to read, if you can’t make it out skip this step). 2. Call a certified licensed technician and schedule an emergency no heat service call. Be sure to give them the information about your equipment. 3. If you don’t know who to call, look for a sticker on your equipment or call Francis Plumbing & Heating and we can refer you to the right company and technician for your specific make of equipment: 613-224-0041 We hope you find the tips on this page useful – we recommend keeping a copy with your warranties and emergency phone numbers for easy recall when you need it.

Thermostat Check 1. __ Is the thermostat set to the HEAT position? 2. __ Is the temperature set at least 3 degrees above the current room temperature? 3. __ Does the thermostat uses batteries, and are they charged? 4. __ If the thermostat has a fan switch, is it ON? (If the fan does not come on and there is no air coming out of the register, then there may not be power to the furnace.)

Gingerbread Christmas party at St. John’s Anglican Church Special to the News

News - Creating gingerbread houses is a Christmas tradition for many. One opportunity for this is at the annual gingerbread family Christmas party which will be held on Saturday, Dec. 13 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. at St. John’s Anglican Church hall in Richmond. Cost is $20 per family which will include a gingerbread house, candy, snacks and a visit from Santa Claus. Tickets should be purchased in advance as there will only be a limited number of tickets available at the door. For tickets, please contact Christine Ormsby at 613-838-6019 or via email at scormsby4000@sympatico.ca. The tradition of making decorated gingerbread houses started in Germany in the early 1800s. According to certain researchers, the first gingerbread houses were the result of the wellknown Grimm’s fairy tale “Hansel and Gretel” in which the two children abandoned in the forest found an edible house made of bread with sugar decorations. After this book was published, German bakers began baking ornamented fairy-tale houses of gingerbread. These became popular during Christmas, a tradition that came to America with Pennsylvanian German immigrants. According to other food historians, the Grimm

brothers were speaking about something that already existed. In modern times the tradition has continued in certain places in Europe. In Germany the Christmas markets still sell decorated gingerbread before Christmas. Making gingerbread houses is still a way of celebrating Christmas in many families. They are built traditionally before Christmas using pieces of baked gingerbread dough assembled with melted sugar. The roof tiles can consist of frosting or candy. The gingerbread house yard is usually decorated with icing to represent snow. A gingerbread house does not have to be an actual house, although it is the most common. It can be anything from a castle to a small cabin, or another kind of building, such as a church, an art museum, or a sports stadium, and other items, such as cars, gingerbread men and gingerbread women, can be made of gingerbread dough. Since 1991, the people of Bergen in Norway, have built a city of gingerbread houses each year before Christmas. It is claimed to be the world’s largest such city. Every child under the age of 12 can make their own house at no cost with the help of their parents. In 2013, a group in Bryan, Texas broke the Guinness World Record for the largest gingerbread house, with a 2,520-square-foot ediblewalled house in aid of a hospital trauma centre.

News - Santa Claus will once again be the featured guest in this year’s annual Christmas Parade of Lights in Stittsville on Saturday, Nov. 29. Santa will be sitting high up on the Ottawa Fire Service ladder truck as it moves along the Stittsville Main Street parade route, having the honour of being the last float in the parade. The parade will get underway at 6 p.m., starting from the Ottawa Carleton District School Board depot on Stittsville Main Street across from Brown’s Your Independent Grocer. The parade will go along Stittsville Main Street to Carleton Cathcart Street

where it will disband. Following the parade, the Christmas lights on the trees at Village Square Park at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Abbott Street will be officially turned on, marking the beginning of the Christmas season in Stittsville. Volunteers are still needed to look after the barricades that are put up to block off access to Stittsville Main Street during the Parade of Lights. The volunteers who do this end up with great viewing locations for the parade as they are right there beside Stittsville Main Street with the barricade. It only takes a couple of hours and is a great way of

Sod turning for French Catholic high school John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - The new French Catholic high school in Stittsville took a ceremonial but significant step in its development last Friday with an official sod turning ceremony. As Bernard Roy, Director of Education for the Conseil des ecoles catholiques du Centre-Est (CECCE) says, “Breaking ground is so much more than just digging up some dirt with a shovel.” “We are symbolically preparing the ground for what is to be built here: a nurturing community in which every child can learn, pursue their dreams and build a better world.” This new French Catholic high school is now under construction at what will be 5315 Abbott Street in Stittsville, right at the corner of an Abbott Street eastward extension from Iber Road and a new north/south arterial road running through the Fernbank lands, eventually running from Fernbank Road north to Hazeldean Road. The new $27.1 million two-storey school is being built to accommodate 759 students. It will open with students

Updated Flood Risk Mapping in the City of Ottawa: Public Consultation Draft Mapping Completed for Ottawa River from Morris Island to Shirley’s Bay

The Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority has just completed the draft updated flood risk mapping for the Ottawa River from the outlet of the Mississippi River at Morris Island to Shirley’s Bay. The project has identified flood prone areas—areas that are expected to be inundated during an extreme flood— along the river.

from grades seven to nine with additional grades being added annually so that the high school will house a fully grade 7 to 12 complement of students in the 2018-2019 school year. Because construction will not be completed by the beginning of the 2015-2016 school year, students will be temporarily housed at Ecole secondaire Catholique Pierre-Savard in Barrhaven for the first semester of the school year. The new school will be ready for student and staff occupancy in Feb. 2016, the second semester of the 2015-2016 school y4ear. This new French Catholic high school in Stittsville will be the third French Catholic high school serving the west Ottawa area. It is needed to relieve overcrowding at Ecole Franco Ouest in Bells Corners which currently has 16 portables on site and cannot accommodate any more enrolment. The school will begin, albeit in its temporary premises in Barrhaven, in Aug. 2015 with about 300 students in grades seven to nine. Schools feeding this new French Catholic high school include Elisabeth-Bruyere in Kanata (excluding its Bells Corners attendance area), J.-L. Couroux in Carleton Place, Saint Jean-Paul II in Stittsville, Roger Saint Denis in Kanata (excluding its Crystal Beach attendance area) and Saint-Remi Catholic School in Kanata. This new French Catholic high school will feature 17 classrooms, five science laboratories, five computer and technical laboratories, five music and art rooms, three student support rooms, a stage, resource centre, cafeteria, chapel, a triple gymnasium, an exercise room and four change rooms. There will also be playing fields. Zofia Jurewicz from the firm Edward J. Cuhaci and Associates Architects Inc. of Ottawa, designers of the school, speaking at the pre-sod turning ceremony which was held at Saint Jean-Paul II school on Abbott Street in Stittsville last Friday morning, said

that the school has been designed to be a gateway and significant landmark for the surrounding fast-growing community. She said that the new high school has been design for 21st century learning, allowing for active problem-solving based learning, the teaching of core subjects and the development of new skills like collaborative learning. She said that throughout the school, there will be opportunities for interaction and learning outside the classrooms. The school has been designed to be a certified eco-school, with sustainability and energy efficiency built in. Ms. Jurewicz said that the atrium in the school will act as a main street, connecting the various “fingers” that are part of the school’s

design. Edward J. Cuhaci and Associates Architects Inc. presented a $1,000 donation to the new school to be used to fund a bursary for its first graduates. At the pre-sod turning ceremony at Saint Jean-Paul II school, Nepean-Carleton MPP Lisa MacLeod praised the Conseil des ecoles Catholiques du Centre-Est (CECCE) for its astute planning involving growth areas like the Fernbank lands. She said that the Board was offering choice to parents, saying that is why she will always support Catholic and Francophone education in Ontario. See NEW, page 29

The public are encouraged to attend the public open house and/or provide comments on the draft mapping completed for this area.

Identifying lands that are vulnerable to flooding is an important responsibility for Ontario’s Conservation Authorities. In 2014, MVCA completed the second phase of a five year undertaking of updating flood risk mapping studies on water courses within the City of Ottawa. Conservation Authorities use the mapping in the administration of hazardous lands. R0012993401_1113 28 Stittsville News - Thursday, November 13, 2014

Other speakers at this pre-sod turning gathering at Saint Jean-Paul II school included Board vice-chair Johanne Lacombe, Director of Education Bernard Roy and the new school’s principal Veronique Pourbaix-Kent who is currently principal at Ecole Franco Ouest but will be transferring to this new French Catholic High School in Stittsville in January. Others in attendance included city of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillor Shad Qadri and city of Ottawa Kanata North ward councillor Marianne Wilkinson. The municipal councillors and especially councillor Qadri were thanked for their support for the project, especially with regard to zoning for the site and the provision of municipal services to the site. Following this pre-sod turning ceremony at the school, those involved boarded a school bus and took the short trip eastward to the site of the new high school where gold-painted shovels were used for an official ceremonial sod turn-

ing ceremony. This new French Catholic High School will be named probably in the new year. Board trustees will provide three possible names which will then go out to consultation by parents and students. The school’s principal will guide this naming process. McDonald Bros. Construction Inc., which has its headquarters on Westbrook Road in Stittsville, is the general contractor for this new French Catholic High School. Beginning with the 2015-2016 school year, the Conseil des ecoles Catholiques du Centre-Est (CECCE) will be offering an enriched program at this new school for grade seven and eight students seeking greater academic challenges. In addition, in accordance with the wishes expressed during consultation with the school community, this new French Catholic high School will be equipped to offer a series of specialized courses in a specific field available to all of the Board’s students in the Ottawa area.

City looking for volunteers for committees, boards be presented at a public information session on Thursday, Nov. 13 from 6 to 8 p.m. in the lobby of Mary Pitt Centre, 100 Constellation Cres. Advisory committee members can claim expenses including childcare, mileage, parking and transit fares. Board and committee members must be 18 years or older and cannot be employed by the City of Ottawa. The deadline to apply is Thursday, Nov. 27 at 4:30 p.m. More information is available at ottawa.ca or by emailing committees@ottawa.ca. Aside from the library board, which must be appointed 60 days after council is sworn in Dec. 1, board and committee members will be appointed by the end of February. In 2012, city council slashed the

number of citizen advisory groups at city hall from 15 to ďŹ ve. The move also shifted the built heritage advisory committee (OBHAC) from an advisory group to a subcommittee of planning committee, mostly composed of councillors. At the time, less than half of the work done by the advisory committees resulted in direct recommendations or advice to city council or its standing committees and restructuring the advisory groups was aimed at making them more effective. The move was also aimed at saving $190,000 annually. After the change, advisory committees were to hold ofďŹ cial meetings four times a year, however, additional informal meetings can be

The Lees Avenue portion of the overall project went under construction in summer 2014. The recommended design concept was approved by City Council on July 17, 2013. The City has planned this project under Schedule C of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) process. The EA process was finalized in September 2013 after the completion of an Environmental Study Report. On this basis, Main Street will be renewed as a “complete street” featuring cycle tracks, wider sidewalks, and space for streetscaping. To accomplish this, vehicle lane reductions will be implemented in some locations. The street design varies along its approximately 2-km length. Construction of the project is planned to commence in 2015. Early utility reconstruction works may go under construction in fall 2014.

Sports - The Bell Warriors tyke and bantam teams are National Capital Amateur Football Association (NCAFA) champions this year. The two teams won their championship games on the Nov. ½ weekend. The Bell Warriors tykes faced the East Ottawa Generals in the Sullivan Conference NCAFA championship game. The tykes depended on a disciplined defense along with strong running by backs Greg Cowan of Stittsville, Avery Osbourne of Stittsville, Julian Beaulieu of Stittsville and Ribensley Boisette of Ottawa to seal the victory. The Bell Warriors bantams went up against the South Ottawa Mustangs in its championship game. This was a team that the Bell Warriors had lost a game to in the regular sea-

son. And in this NCAFA championship game, the Warriors posted a convincing win. Dilan Parry of North Gower led the Warriors scoring while Jack Rabb of Richmond earned Offensive Player of the Game honours. Andrew Beattie of Richmond and Ross Polito of Stittsville both led the Warriors defense in this game. The Bell Warriors mosquito and pee wee teams also made it to championship games but did not come away victorious. The Bell Warriors mosquitos went undefeated during the regular season, led by quarterback Josh Baylin of Nepean coupled with strong running by Trey O’Brien and Daniel Briere, both of Nepean. The defense was led by Ethan Ryan of Carleton Place, Shyreek Phillips of Nepean, Jacob

Smith of Nepean and Jack Buckley of Stittsville. A double overtime win in the semi-finals advanced the Warriors to an A-Cup appearance. However, the Warriors lost in this A-Cup final. The Bell Warriors pee wee team won the Western Conference championship with quarterback James Keenan of Stittsville leading the team. Receivers Eric Conley of Ottawa and Josh Streng of Carleton Place had good seasons while running back Andrew Fullerton of Stittsville gave the team a determined running attack. Steven Schwartz of Nepean was a team leader for the pee wees on the defensive side of the ball. In the A-Cup final, the Bell Warriors pee wees battled a tough Cumberland Panthers team, coming up a little short.

Commodore cites change in mindset John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - He calls himself “Director General of Happiness.” That’s because Commodore Mark Watson serves as Director General of Morale and Welfare Services at National Defence Headquarters in Ottawa where he oversees services and programs for the wounded, veterans and civilians who are touched by the military – over one million people in total. Programs include a military transition program, an integrated personnel support unit, a family bereavement program and a military family services program. In his address as guest speaker at the annual Remembrance Dinner

at the Richmond Legion last Saturday evening, Commodore Watson stressed that providing support for families of soldiers serving is essential as soldiers deployed overseas must leave their families behind. “We support our families as much as we can,” he said. Commodore Watson observed that there has been a change in the mindset of Canadians towards the military in recent years, a change that he attributed probably to the Afghanistan war. He said that when he was attending Royal Military College (RMC) in Kingston in the 1980’s (he graduated in 1987), he even experienced people spitting at him. Now, he said, Canadians’ attitude to the military has changed and now the usual experi-

ence for him when he is in uniform is for people to come up to him and thank him for his service to the country. This is how the view of Canadians towards the military has changed in recent years. “Canada is recognizing the importance of veterans, serving and retired,” he said. Commodore Watson explained his close relationship with the Royal Canadian Legion, starting when he was a Sea Cadet in Barrie and would go to the Legion there after the Nov. 11 Remembrance Service. The connection to the Legion continued when he was at RMC where he volunteered at a small local Legion branch. His Legion connection continued at his first posting to a small British Columbia

community where there was a large Legion branch. He told how he wore a poppy when on duty in Hungary, a nation which Canadians had fought against in world wars. This was unfamiliar to Hungarians and he had to explain about the significance of the poppy. Commodore Watson was introduced at the dinner by Legion member Peter MacArthur, himself an RMC graduate (1959) who had a 25 year career in the Canadian navy. Commodore Watson was thanked by Legion member Jim Becking who noted that he had been a Sea Cadet in his younger days, just like Commodore Watson had been. Those at the head table at this year’s Remembrance Dinner at the

Richmond Legion included Commodore Watson, Lisa Chillingworth who is Commodore Watson’s fiancée, Richmond Legion president Jane Louks and her husband Tom and MC Pat Sullivan and his wife Jeanne Simpson. In her remarks at the dinner, Richmond Legion president Jane Louks said that at this year’s Remembrance ceremonies, people will be pausing perhaps longer than usual with the thought that 2014 marks the centenary of the start of the First World War. “This dinner gives us the chance to honour the veterans in our branch and all over the world who are still here with us and to remember those who have passed on,” she said.

Yarn bombing of railing at Goulbourn Museum Special to the News

News - A yarn bombing is happening at the Goulbourn Museum this Sunday, Nov. 16. If you are not a knitting nut or a crazy crocheter, you may not know what a yard bombing project is. But here’s a simple explanation: yard bombing is the art of adding a knit cover to something. Known as fibre graffiti, it transforms urban landscape features into colourful spaces. Anything from park benches to buses can be objects for yarn bombing. In the case of the Goulbourn Museum, it is the railing at the front of the Museum building that is going to be the object of the yarn bombing. “We would like to add that fibre finesse to the railing in front of the Museum,” says Kathryn Jamieson, curatormanager of the Goulbourn Museum. The idea to yarn bomb the railing was first suggested at a “Yap & Yarn” session. This is the Goulbourn Museum’s informal knitting circle that meets monthly. It is believed that this finished yarn bombing project involving the railing at the front of the Museum will add a festive flair to the site, particularly for the Museum’s “OldFashioned Christmas & Outdoor Artisan Market” that is being held on Sunday, Nov. 30. In addition, the yarn bombing of the railing should draw attention to the “Yap & Yarn” group, originators of the idea. And everyone can become involved in the project. It is not just for “Yap & Yarn” members. Any volunteer knitters and crocheters are being asked to make swatches in advance for the yarn bombing of the railing. Swatches, either knitted or crocheted, should be roughtly eight inches by 24 inches in size.

In addition, volunteers will be needed this Sunday, Nov. 16 to help with the installation of these swatches. All materials, colours and patterns are welcome to be provided. The Goulbourn Museum will provide coffee, tea and treats for volunteers that day. In addition, the Museum will provide the yarn and zip-ties required to install the yarn bombing swatches on the railing. It is hoped that the yarn bombing installation will be able to stay in place for several months but the winter weather could be a

factor in how long it stays in place. But even when it is removed from the railing, this yarn bombing will continued. All of the swatches will be washed and then the Museum will try to find ways to reuse them in some way. This yarn bombing at the Goulbourn Museum will take place this Sunday, Nov. 16 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Anyone who would like to get involved should email Museum curator-manager Kathryn Jamieson at Kathryn@goulbournmuseum.ca or just drop by

If you have a general legal question that you would like to have addressed send it via email to Legalmatters@compellingcounsel.com

I don’t have a will and powers of attorney documents. Do I need to go to a lawyer to get it done or can I do it myself? Your last will does not have to be drafted or signed by a lawyer. However, a will is a legal document that will determine who will have control of your estate and how it is going to be distributed. There are certain legal requirements that have to be met for the will to be valid. As such it is very important that your will is drafted, signed and witnessed properly.

You can get some unique Christmas cards while also helping out the Goulbourn Museum in its work of collecting and sharing the history of the former Goulbourn township. The Goulbourn Museum is selling a Christmas card that features an image of yesteryear on its front, with the words “Happy Holidays’ inside the card. The image on the front features a pair of black leather ice skates along with a skating lantern, harkening back to a time before indoor rinks when skating on outdoor frozen ponds was a favourite winter pastime. The front cover image also features pine bowls, a blanket and a bench, all appropriately arranged to create an attractive and appealing cover image for the Christmas card.

Love, not hate, must be life’s guide, Eva Olsson says John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - It was so quiet in the theatre at Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville that you could hear the proverbial pin drop. And this silence reigned even though the theatre was filled with students, all listening, all attentive, all focused on the voice with its Jewish accent that was coming from a small 90 year old woman standing there on stage beside the giant overhead screen. This woman was Eva Olsson, a survivor of the Holocaust, who was telling the students in her own unscripted words not only the horrors of the gas chambers of the Nazi regime but also was telling them that it is love, not hate, and acceptance, not racism, that must guide a person through life. This day when the reality of the Holocaust came to Sacred Heart was Thursday, Nov. 6. The giant screen beside Eva Olsson illustrated parts of her story, a story which was formally entitled “A Legacy of Caring, Compassion and Character” but a story which could just as easily have been called “The Power of Hate” or “Love Is The Correct Way.”

Eva started off by telling the students that she does not use the word “hate.” “Hate is a killer, not a joke,” she said referring to how the word “hate” is frequently used by people today to describe their preferences. Use “I don’t like,” not “hate,” she said, urging the students to stop and count to ten before using the phrase “I hate.” Don’t follow in the Nazi footsteps of hate, she urged. She said that she was bullied by the Nazi bullies when she was just 19 years old, all because she is Jewish and the Nazis did not like her religion. Bullying someone or putting someone down – how do you achieve peace with such an attitude, she asked. And she warned the students not to be bystanders to bullying. She noted that her grandson had been called a “stupid Jew” and his teacher had remained silent during the incident. She said that being a silent bystander to bullying gives power to the bully. Hitler could not have done what he did without the presence of bystanders who did nothing, she observed. Eva wondered out loud to the audience why people are so eager to label other people negatively. Don’t they know who they are themselves, she queried as a possible response to her rhetorical question. She told how she was deprived of education in her youth and told the John Curry/Metroland students how blessed they are to have Holocaust survivor Eva Olsson, left, shows a selection of her books to Mary Defayette, the opportunity to get an education. right, chaplain at Sacred Heart Catholic High School, following her presentation to See EVA OLSSON, page 45

Eva Olsson talks to students at Sacred Heart shown by the Danish people, she said. Bulgaria was also occupied by the Nazis but Bulgaria refused to give in the bullies and stood up against the injustice of the Nazi war against Jews. Again, compassion ruled. Caring for others is being compassionate, she told the students, adding that respect cannot be purchased. “We have to earn it,� she said. She said that 11 million people died at the hands of the Nazis not because they were too old to live but because of “hate.� She told of her time in 1945 in a labour camp where the floor was covered with diarrhea and lice. Starvation, dehydration and disease were rampant and mass graves were prevalent.

Continued from page 41

It is a gift, she said, with teachers teaching you how to learn. Don’t take it for granted, she said. Eva recounted parts of her own story as a teenager living in Hungary when World War Two broke out, a war which saw six million Jews murdered and five million others including Catholic priests murdered as well. There were one and a half million children murdered including five of her nieces. She said that she was there speaking for all of these people whose own voices were silenced by the hate of the Nazis. She told how the Nazis occupied Hungary in March 1944 and eventually transported her neighbourhood, herded into boxcars with one pail for water and one pail as a toilet, to Auschwitz-Birkenau which they were told was a brick factory but which turned out to be “a killing factory.� Some were directed immediately to the gas chambers while others, like herself, were sent on a different route. She told how she had wanted to tell her mother, from whom she was being separated, how much she loved her but this was not possible. She asked the students to make a commitment that they would give their mother a hug and tell her that they love her at the soonest opportunity. Eva noted that an animal usually only kills when hungry or being threatened. But the Nazis, they were not threatened by the Jews, she pointed out. She attributes the Nazi killing behaviour to people being possessed with hate. When you carry rage in you, nothing holds you back, she told the students. She told how women and children died in the gas chambers and how the Nazis cut off hair and fingers with rings in the brutality of these gas chambers. For those who survived as prisoners, like herself, the daily ration was one piece of 70 percent sawdust bread each day and soup that was like dirty water. Eva pointed to the examples of Denmark and Bulgaria as places where people did not give in to the Nazi bullies. Although occupied, Denmark did not comply with the Nazi edict against Jews and 7,200 Danish Jews were smuggled in boats to the safety of Sweden. This was “compassion�

She said that she managed to survive by learning to never give up hope despite the Nazi attempts to strip her and others of their human dignity. Eva told of the value of family, saying that money cannot buy a person a family. “They murdered our families,� she said about the Nazis, urging the students never to take their families for granted. Things will never fill the void of not having a family, she said. Following their liberation in April 1945 by British and Canadian soldiers, she and her sister went to Sweden where she met her future husband whom she praised as someone who took a chance of getting to know someone very different than himself. When you lock out someone from your

life, you may be locking out a person who might become the best friend you ever had, she told the students. She and her husband, who was later killed as a result of a drunk driver, had a son and she now has three grandchildren. She travels across Canada and some of the United States telling her story, just like she did at Sacred Heart, advocating for unconditional acceptance and love, not hate. The challenge for us all, she said, is to ensure “never again� will such hate happen in the world. Eva received a standing ovation from the assembled students, with some students making their way to her to thank her for her presentation, with some even getting a hug from her.

Richmond on Thursday, Nov. 6. Thursday, Nov. 6. 6.

Lots of songs at coffee house at South Carleton John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

News - A group guitar performance, a teacher band, a Glee Club musical offering and lots of songs, some original and some popular standards, were featured in the coffee house at South Carleton High School in Richmond on Thursday evening, Nov. 6. This is the 13th year that coffee houses have been presented at South Carleton, having begun back in 2002. But it was the first time over all these years that an entire guitar class of students performed, but this is how this coffee house begun. Many of these students are just learning how to play the guitar but that did not stop them from being there on stage,

accompanying singer Emma Richardson and guitarist Kyle Waucaush on the song “Demons.” Just before intermission, a teacher band fronted by vice-principal Christine Reynolds and teachers Jamie McIntyre and Allyson Tayler took to the stage and wowed the audience of 200 with their rendition of “Islands in the Sun.” Teachers McIntyre and Tayler had appeared on stage as a duo just before this band appearance, singing “It’s Time.” The school’s multi-voice Glee Club, accompanied by three guitars, entertained the audience with the song “Chandelier.” It may have been the last performance of the coffee house that was the best, as Ross Morgan on vocals and guitar, backed up by Robert Fieldhouse on guitar and Donny

Chennette on drums, presented a rousing, lively rendition of Johnny Cash’s iconic hit “Folsom Prison Blues.” Even Mr. McIntyre, in his wrap up remarks at the coffee house, seemed to think that this final performance of the evening was superb, saying it was definitely the best. He, though, praised all of the performers for having the courage to perform on stage at the coffee house, noting that for many these high school performances would be the end of their appearing on stage in this way. There were lots of great musical moments at this coffee house. Alyssa and Meghan Glennie did a great rendition of Leonard Cohen’s anthemlike song “Hallelujah.” And Brady Collier had the crowd

in a rhythmic clapping mood with his version of Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire.” Sam Linton, accompanied by Ross Morgan on guitar, sang the Beatles’ “Blackbird” while the evening’s MC’s, Liz Cathcart and Vic Quirk, both performed as well. Performers during the evening included Alyssa and Meghan Glennie with “Problem”; Maddi Stevens and Alyssa Glennie with “Gravity”; Liz Cathcart and Vic Quirk with “Little Talks” and “Home”; Brady Collier and Liam McGuire with “Boulevard of Broken Dreams”; Nadira and Nesia Saparno with “King of Anything”; Sam Linton and a backup band with “Radioactive” and an original song called “Used To Be”; Victoria Quirk and Sam Linton with “I’ll Follow You Into The Dark”; the guitar/drum band

of Donny Chennette, Nick Bradley, Connor Deehan and Blair Greenwood with “Heart Shaped Box”; Maddie Refausse with “All of Me” and an original “Romance Avenue”; Shyvonne Roxborough accompanied by Donny Chennette on guitar with “Thinkin’ Bout You”; Nick Hubert and Matt Spafford with “A Part of Me” and “The Best Thing That never Happened,” one a love song and one a break-up song; Alyssa Glennie and Rochelle Moore and Davis G. with “They Don’t Need To Understand”; Vic Quirk with “Riptide”; and Alyssa Glennie and Ross Morgan with “The Scientist.” Bakers Bean of Richmond donated a carafe of coffee for the coffee house. A bake table to raise funds for a student trip to Ecuador was held at the coffee house.

Highest military honour awarded by France given to George Murphy John Curry john.curry@metroland.com

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Rochelle Moore sings “They Don’t Need To Understand” in the coffee shop at South Carleton High School in Richmond on Thursday, Nov. 6.

Maddie Refausse plays the keyboard and sings in the coffee house at South Carleton High School in Richmond on Thursday, Nov. 6.

News - George Murphy of Richmond now holds the rank of “Knight of the National Order of the Legion of Honour.” This is the highest military honour awarded by the Republic of Frances, dating back to Napoleon Bonaparte. Mr. Murphy, a World War Two veteran and member of the Richmond Legion, received the medal award at a ceremony at the Canadian War Museum last Saturday morning. At the ceremony, the Ambassador of France and his wife, Monsieur Philippe Zeller and Madame Odile Zeller, thanked George for his contribution to the World War Two campaign that led to the liberation of France. Ambassador Zeller is himself an Officer of the Legion of Honour. France is presenting these medal awards in commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the Allied landings in Normandy and France in 1944. Mr. Murphy’s receipt of this medal award from the Republic of France was recognized at last Saturday evening’s Remembrance Dinner at the Richmond Legion, with Mr. Murphy being thanked for his wartime service and his continuing service to the country and his community in peace time. He received a standing ovation from those in attendance at the dinner. Mr. Murphy, who is 91, was one of three Murphy brothers to join the army in the Second World War. In Nov. 1943, following basic and advanced training in Canada, he was sent overseas as part of the Service Corps and took part in the invasion of Normandy. He left England on D-Day and spent a day or more on the English Channel before landing on Juno Beach. He was part of the first wave of the D-Day invasion and part of the liberation of Belgium and Holland as well. One fond memory of the war which George has is a brief meeting with his brothers in the Reichwald Forest in Germany at the end of the war in Europe. George is a past president of the Richmond Branch 625 of the Royal Canadian Legion. In recognition of his service to the Legion and to the broader community, George has been made a Life Member of the Royal Canadian Legion.

MARY COOK The value Mary Cook’s Memories Community – My sister Audrey was the one I always went to if I needed the answer to a question.   Mother once said she was “wiser beyond her yearsâ€? whatever that meant.  All I knew was that she could pretty well satisfy my curiosity on just about any subject. And so it was one day, after I had spent a glorious afternoon at my little friend Joyce Francis’ house, that I asked Audrey why we never used our parlour, but everything we did, from eating, to playing games, to just sitting around doing our own thing, we were always in the kitchen?  “First of allâ€? she said, without giving it more than a few seconds

of a family kitchen

thought, “the parlour is too small to hold all of us, there is no big table there, and there is only one horsehair-filled settee and a couple twig chairs to sit on, and besides we close it up when winter comes because there is no way to get heat into the roomâ€?.   She paused for only a few seconds, “and besides, our kitchen is the nicest room in the house...and certainly the warmest.â€? Well,  that all made perfect sense to me, and I began to see our kitchen in a different light.   Everything we needed, other than the beds we slept in, was in that big kitchen, and I looked around and for the first time,

really saw the room for what it was. This was where our food was gotten ready for our meals...Mother’s bake table was beside the back door, close to a shelf Father had put up, covered securely with oilcloth where dishes were washed.  There was no sink in the kitchen, but a small pump had been anchored to this shelf, which only rarely produced a dribble. This made us go out to the pump in the yard whenever we needed water, which seemed to me to merit a continuous trip with the granite pail, keeping the reservoir full, bath water on Saturday nights, wash water for Mondays.

Two small pails were continually replenished for hand-washing on the bench by the back door, and one on the oil-cloth covered shelf for drinking and cooking. On the back wall beside the summer kitchen door was the wood box, close to the Findlay Oval.  Standing behind the cook stove was a three-sided tin affair which was there to supposedly keep the heat of the stove from setting the wall on fire, and burning the place to the ground. And there was the door leading to Mother and Father’s small bedroom, a room which Mother once said was smaller than the broom closet she had in New York.

Monarch’s Newest Community in Stittsville.

The kitchen took a corner then, and there sat the big oak Barnett Ice Box, kitty-corner, which I thought gave the kitchen a nice touch. And then a long wall, broken up by a window looking out onto the grape arbour, held the old pine table, long enough to sit a dozen people. A bench, just as long as the table, sat under the window, and provided seating for the brothers at meal time. More chairs than we needed, sat around the rest of the table. This was the table that had more useful purposes than any other piece of furniture in the old log house. See MARY COOK, page 63 R0022995066-1113

Plum orange cake is Mary Cook: Our kitchen perfect dessert/snack Foodland Ontario

Special to the News

Lifestyle - This wonderful cake made with blue plums is accented with orange and a touch of nutmeg. For a finishing touch, serve with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with a little nutmeg. Preparation time: 25 minutes. Cooking time: 50 to 60 minutes. Serves eight. Ingredients * 25 ml (2 tbsp) granulated sugar * 15 ml (1 tbsp) cornstarch * 375 g (12 oz) large blue plums * 15 ml (1 tbsp) orange-flavoured liqueur or orange juice concentrate Cake * 175 ml (3/4 cup) butter, softened * 325 ml (1-1/3 cups) granulated sugar * 3 eggs * 5 ml (1 tsp) vanilla * 15 ml (1 tbsp) finely grated orange rind * 375 ml (1-1/2 cups) all-purpose flour * 7 ml (1-1/2 tsp) baking powder * 2 ml (1/2 tsp) nutmeg * 1 ml (1/4 tsp) salt

Preparation In a medium bowl, mix the sugar with cornstarch. Slice each plum into about six wedges, and discard the pits. Toss the plums in the cornstarch mixture, and stir in the liqueur. Set aside. For the cake, beat the butter with the sugar in a large bowl and using an electric mixer at high speed for about two minutes until it’s light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Beat in the orange rind. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, nutmeg and salt, and then beat it slowly into butter mixture until well combined. Pour into a 2.5 litre (nine-inch) springform or square cake pan, greased only on the bottom. Drain any liquid from the plums, and arrange slices in a circular pattern on the batter. Bake in a 180 C (350 F) oven for 55 to 60 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in the centre comes out clean and lightly browned. Let the cake cool on wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove the ring from the pan and let it cool completely. Serve at room temperature.

We ate at it, neighbours played euchre on it at the Saturday night house parties, we five children sat at it at night with two coal oil lamps, one at each end. Mother wrote in her diaries there, Audrey and I worked our way through Eaton’s catalogue, and my three brothers carved, played cards, whittled, and yes, fought like tigers. A flat pine door, which was never opened, led to the back room upstairs, whose only purpose it seemed to me was to offer me a smooth surface to draw on with stubs of chalk, and with orders that it had to be washed off when I was finished. Another flat wall held Mother’s bake cupboard, an invention I thought was right up there with electric lights, and a real bathtub.  This cupboard had a place for flour which seemed to be suspended from somewhere inside, and a door affair which could be rolled up like a wad of paper, vanishing into goodness knows where when she needed something out of the doors. Topping off the whole elegance of this cupboard was a white enamelled surface that could be pulled out to make the work surface larger. I thought that cupboard was one of the best pieces of furniture in the entire house! Like every other kitchen I ever went into in Northcote, there was a creton couch, close to

GOURMET OR BISTRO

the stove. It served as a bed for my sister Audrey and me when we had company and had to give up ours. It was too narrow to sleep sideby-side, so we had to sleep end-to-end, which didn’t please either of us one bit! It would have made sense for Father to have his noon nap on the couch, but he preferred an old rocking chair, that no one sat in but him. Wainscotting circled the kitchen, and the only other window looked out onto the side yard with a ledge wide enough where Mother could put her geranium pots, when she brought them in in the fall. Braided mats of every shape and size covered the kitchen floor in the winter. My sister Audrey was right.  Again! The kitchen was the nicest room in that old log house. And certainly the room that got the most use. It was a place for family fun, a place to fill our bellies, a room where neighbours were greeted, and where the big granite tea pot was always on the back of the stove.  There was a coziness there, even on the coldest night, and at a very young age, I knew that the warmth I felt in that old kitchen didn’t come from the Findlay Oval alone.

New acoustic Happenings around open mic night village of Richmond in Richmond Special to the News

News - Performers are wanted. And so are audience members! It is the first of what in the hope of organizer Andrew McKim become a monthly event, namely an acoustic open mic night in Richmond. This inaugural event will take place this Friday, Nov. 14 starting at 8 p.m. and running through to 11 p.m. at the Richmond Curling Club on Perth Street. The idea is to provide a venue where local musicians can get together in an open and fun atmosphere to play music before an appreciative live audience. It will all be free to attend but those attending are asked to bring along a non-perishable food item for the Richmond Food Bank. The hope is that this acoustic open mic night will become a monthly event called “Will Play For Food.”. This will all depend on community participation, both as performers and as audience members. Sponsorship from King’s Your Independent Grocer and from Tiffany Fisher of Royal LePage Gale Real Estate is covering the cost of the venue and any needed associated equipment for the event. Everyone is invited to attend to perform or simply to enjoy the music. For more information, please email acoustic. in.richmond@gmail.com.

News - This year the annual Santa Claus Parade will take place at 4 p.m. rather than the traditional 11 a.m. It will still happen on the first Saturday in December which is Saturday, Dec. 6 this year. The parade will then be followed by the annual “Lighting of the Park’ ceremony at Memorial Park at 6 p.m. This is where the Christmas lights on the trees at Memorial Park are turned on for the Christmas season and where the “My Winter Wonderland” street banners for this year are unveiled…Former Richmond resident Ron Port recently retired after 49 years of teaching physical education, coaching and being athletic director at Algonquin College in Ottawa…A “Celebration of Life” service in memory of the late Sally Beaton of Richmond will take place on Saturday, Nov. 22 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the St. Philip’s Parish Hall at the corner of Fortune Street and Burke Street.

children, Kenny who died tragically in Africa, and Bonnie (Rondeau) of Richmond with whom she had been living.

Caregivers can learn about cognitive challenges at Nov. 17 session Special to the News

News - Caregivers of persons with mental illness are sometimes left feeling confused, dismayed and helpless when psychosis and schizophrenia result in cognitive problems for their loved one. Cognitive skills are needed to learn information, think, remember, understand, communicate and solve problems. Yet problems with cognition can result in a decline in academic or work performance. That’s why some with mental illness can’t hold down a job or stay in school.

Indeed, “Why can’t they hold down a job or stay in school?” is the topic of a presentation which Dr. Mary Marquardt, a neuropsychologist with The Ottawa Hospital’s “On Track” program, will give at an upcoming session this coming Monday, Nov. 17 hosted by The Oasis in Kanata, a community outreach problem of Glen Cairn United Church providing public information sessions for caregivers of persons with mental illness. This is why the loved one of a caregiver of a person with mental ill-

ness may be experiencing changes in cognitive functioning (attention, memory and thinking skills) with their loved one and wants to help. But how to understand then deal with these challenges – that is the real problem! That’s why this session by Dr. Marquardt should prove helpful to caregivers who are experiencing such behaviour in their loved one. Such behaviour can leave caregivers feeling confused, dismayed and helpless, with emotional and physical consequences for their own health.

Dr. Marquardt will provide caregivers with guidelines and suggestions on how to deal with the challenges of psychosis so that they can better cope with their loved one’s illness. This presentation by Dr. Marquardt will take place on Monday, Nov. 17 at 7 p.m. at the Glen Cairn United Church at 140 Abbeyhill Drive in the Glen Cairn section of Kanata. The session is free and no registration is required. Everyone is welcome. This program serves not only Kanata but also all of the areas in west Ottawa

including Stittsville, Richmond and Goulbourn. To learn more about this upcoming session or about The Oasis in Kanata program, visit the website at www. TheOasisKanata.ca, email info@ TheOasisKanata.ca or call 613-4351100. The Oasis in Kanata also runs a professionally-facilitated caregiver support group. Anyone interested in joining this support group should contact the program’s manager at OasisManager@TheOasisKanata.ca or call 613-435-1100.

Precautions to take when the COLD Arrives and your Furnace is Running Non-Stop!! With the arrival of cold weather comes a requirement to keep your home’s furnace running on a regular basis. However, for the health of your home’s inhabitants, precautions should be taken concerning the efficiency and cleanliness of your furnace, as well as the cleanliness of your home’s air ducts. Health Canada and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have determined that indoor air quality can be six to 10 times more polluted than outdoor air in some industrialized cities. Home air contaminants can come from a number of sources, and their effects on those in your home can be serious – and sometimes even fatal. Maintaining the safety of your home’s air begins with the furnace and the air ducts. It’s vitally important that your furnace is clean and operating at peak efficiency before it’s required to run full-time through the fall, winter, and into spring. If your furnace isn’t running at its best, it can be deadly. Practically every gas furnace creates carbon monoxide, which is a natural byproduct of incomplete combus-

tion. Even though a clean and well-running furnace will produce only minimal amounts of this deadly, invisible gas, which is vented away, an inefficient furnace can produce lethal amounts of carbon monoxide. Therefore, have your furnace cleaned and inspected well before the cold season arrives. A clean and efficient furnace is also eco-friendly, and can even save you money when it runs properly! It’s estimated that in the average six-room house, about 40 pounds of dust is accumulated every year just from everyday living. Ordinary occupation of a home creates all sorts of contaminants and pollutants that find their way into your home’s air ducts. Dust, dander, chemicals, microbes all collect in your home’s “respiratory system.” Those air ducts should be cleaned on a regular basis, but with the arrival of the winter season, homes are sealed tight and those existing toxins and pollutants are circulated over and over. Have your home’s air ducts professionally cleaned, especially before the arrival of the chilly season

Clogged dryer vents pose yet one more serious hazard and health risk in the home. On one hand, congested dryer vents are a leading cause of fires, but that’s not all. Those clogged vents prevent the efficient ventilation of carbon monoxide. And, when dryer vents are clogged, they create the ideal nesting ground for moulds, which pose their own health risks. If you haven’t had your dryer vents cleaned, be sure to address it before the winter season comes knocking on your door. In the Ottawa region, Dr. Clean Air are a professional cleaning specialist. The company provides an extensive number of cleaning services and packages ,that will keep your home thoroughly clean throughout the year, including furnaces, air ducts, and dryer vents.

The Chapman Mills Sound Connection performs throughout the community in venues such as retirement homes and hosts an annual Christmas concert. As a chartered members of Harmony Inc., an international women’s barbershop organization, the Chapman Mills Sound Connection will be participating in the regional competition in Portland, ME this coming April. Success at this competition will mean subsequent participation in the international competition in Verona, NY R0642275076

For instance, both Maxine Mercer and Peggy Band of Stittsville sing with this Chapman Mills Sound Connection as does Robin Lean from Ashton.

If you are a yoga enthusiast, there will be a series of all-level donationbased yoga classes offered including a free class for those living with MS.

Besides doing baking for the fundraiser’s bake sale, the yoga teachers at Blue Bamboo Yoga are donating their time to lead the yoga classes being offered at this MS fundraiser. The schedule for the yoga classes at this MS fundraiser will be as follows: 1 p.m. – 2:15 p.m. Move To Stay Healthy (all levels Slow Flow) with Diane Lanthier; 1:30 p.m. to

Jewelry/handbag donation deadline is Nov. 15 Eva von Jagow

Special to the News

News - “All That Glam” is back! This second annual jewelry fundraiser to support breakfast programs at schools in Nunavut is coming up on Saturday, Nov. 29 but before then, you can really help out in this initiative by donating gently-used jewelry and handbags to the cause. Donating some unused jewelry and excess handbags for this “All That Glam” sale will ensure that lots of money will be raised so that children in Nunavut can start off their school day with a nutritious meal. Right now, that is not the case for many Nunavut children. Donations for “All That Glam” can be dropped off until this Saturday, Nov. 15 at one of a number of locations in the Ottawa area: TD Canada Trust branches in Stittsville (1270 Stittsville Main Street and 5679 Hazeldean Road), at the World Exchange Plaza and on Pretoria Avenue; at TD Direct Investing Centres at Kanata Centrum, Emerald Plaza on Merivale Road and at the World Exchange Plaza; and at any of the seven Dymon Storage locations in the Ottawa area (Coventry Road, Prince of Wales Drive at Hunt Club Road, Orleans, Bank Street at Hunt Club Road, Walkley Road at Heron Road, Kanata (beside Canadian Tire) and Carling Avenue at the Queensway. You can also help out by attending the sale on Saturday, Nov. 29 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the new Richcraft Recreation Complex on Innovation Drive in Kanata. There will be thousands of pieces of gently-used jewelry and handbags for sale. What a great place to purchase socially responsible Christmas gifts while also getting that special piece of jewelry that will dazzle those at your office Christmas party or at a Christmas gathering of family and friends. You can also tell your friends and acquaintances about the event. Last year, one woman was heard to say: “This is a woman’s wonderland, especially just before Christmas.” It was last year when as a grade 12 student I (Eva von Jagow) organized an inaugural charity sale called “All That Glam” which was a sale of gently-used jewelry and handbags to raise money for school breakfast programs in Nunavut. The event was a resounding success, raising nearly $10,000. This amount was matched by Canadian pacific which meant that a much-needed school breakfast program in Coral Harbor in Nunavut could be established and funded for two years.

However, breakfast programs at schools in Nunavut need continual funding and so the fundraiser has become an annual event with this year’s second annual sale. While doing research about Nunavut for a school project, I came across the harsh reality of nutrition in the Far North. It was shocking to see a photo of a jar of peanut butter costing $18.99 in a Nunavut supermarket. Even with federal shipping subsidies, a head of cabbage can cost over $20. A three litre container of orange juice is typically $9. Especially in the winter months, fresh fruit and vegetables are very high in price and very poor in quality. What this all means is that many chil-

dren in Nunavut start off their school day with poor nutrition. Having a child going to school hungry or malnourished like this should not be happening anywhere in Canada including Nunavut. Something had to be done about this. One way to help is to start ensuring that children receive a healthy breakfast. When the Breakfast Club of Canada was contacted last year and was told about this idea of raising money for Nunavut school breakfast programs, the Breakfast Club agreed to direct the funds from a fundraiser to specific Nunavut schools. But how did the fundraiser become the “All That Glam” event? The idea came to me last summer while

helping mom clean out her closet and jewelry box. It was agreed that she had too much of everything. Yet, like most women, she tended to wear the same 10 to 20 pieces of jewelry and use the same handbags most of the time. So there were lots of extras that could be donated to a fundraiser. That’s when I though – women donate clothing to causes all of the time. Why not donate jewelry and handbags for a fundraising event? This idea developed into the “All That Glam” idea as the way to raise money for schools in Nunavut. If you have any questions, please contact me (Eva von Jagow) at allthatglamsale@ gmail.com or check out Facebook at ALL THAT GLAM FUNDRAISER.

Developer says new subdivision will not impact existing wells

John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - The water supplying the planned new 750 home Caivan Developments subdivision flanking Perth Street at the west side of Richmond will not impact existing wells. Frank Cairo of Caivan Developments made this point a couple of times during his presentation about the new development which he gave at the Richmond Village Association (RVA) monthly meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 4 at the Richmond branch of the Ottawa Public Library. He also answered questions from the over 40 people in attendance at the meeting. He said that water for these new homes will be drawn from a deep vast underground lake beneath the village and not from the more shallow aquifer from which the current individual homeowner wells draw their water. Mr. Cairo stated that any home on a well today that was drilled by a professional will not be affected by his new development. He said that there are many reasons why a well might go dry but he said that existing wells in the village will not go dry because of his new subdivision. The communal wells that will be serving the new subdivision will be drawing water from an aquifer that is much deeper and not connected to the more shallow aquifer that is supplying the current wells in the village. He pointed out that one of the benefits to existing homeowners from the presence of this future communal well water system serving his development is that it will be able to accommodate the whole village if ever needed to do so. Distribution pipes would have to be installed throughout the village but the new communal well will have enough water supply to feed the whole village if

necessary. The communal well will have a below-grade storage tank in which the water will be stored before distribution to the new subdivision. He said that the water from this deep aquifer is of such high quality that it will need only minimal treatment at the surface. Indeed, homeowners connected to this communal well system will not require water softeners due to the water quality. Mr. Cairo said that the city of Ottawa did consider extending piped water out from Kanata to serve the new subdivision but transporting water under pressure for such a long distance in a pipe would impact its quality, requiring re-treatment in Richmond. That’s why the city opted for a communal well system for the new development. With regard to surface water, Mr. Cairo said that none of the housing units in his new subdivision will be built on flood plain land, noting that the vast majority of his site is not in the village’s flood plain. Mr. Cairo said that besides being the developer, he will be building some homes in the new subdivision as well. But he expressed the hope that other local home builders will also build homes in his new subdivision. “I hope local builders participate,” he said. “That is the intent.” While the Community Design Plan for the site allowed for 1,000 housing units, Mr. Cairo, in his agreement with the RVA last April which avoided an Ontario Municipal Board hearing on the subdivision, voluntarily agreed to reduce the number of housing units in the subdivision to 750 units. He said that while there is no limit to the number of homes which can be built per year in the subdivision, he expects that it will take about a decade for the subdivision to be fully

His new subdivision will have no street connections to existing areas of the village except via Perth Street. There will be pedestrian linkages between the new subdivision and existing residential areas in the village but no vehicular linkages due to concerns raised by existing homeowners in these areas during the Community Design Plan discussions pertaining to these development lands on the west side of the village. Some homes in this new subdivision will have sump pumps but these sump pumps will be connected to the subdivision’s storm sewer system which will take the water via pipe to a storm water management pond from where it eventually will flow to the Jock River.

Mr. Cairo said that the price of houses in this new subdivision have not been determined yet since such prices will relate to the architecture of the homes and their square footage, both of which have not yet been set. He said that it is difficult to announce a definite timeline yet for actual development of the subdivision because of the over 200 conditions that must be met before house construction can begin. But he hopes to have shovels in the ground for infrastructure work next year. He said that he currently is in the process of dealing with the various conditions of approval for the subdivision and estimated that he is probably a year away for having these conditions resolved. Mr. Cairo said that the new homes in this subdivision will have negligi-

ble impact on traffic on Perth Street which he said draws its traffic from a huge regional area. He said that there will be improvements made to Perth Street as development happens. These include a roundabout and better pedestrian street crossings. The capacity of the sewage pumping station serving the village will be upgraded as development progresses. This will happen in phases including increasing the size of the pipe downstream from the pumping station and then increasing the capacity of the pumping station itself. This will happen as development progresses. Mr. Cairo has been involved with the development of these western development lands in Richmond for a decade now as he formerly worked for Mattamy Homes which initially acquired the 450 acres of land which had been earmarked for development for years. The Community Design Plan undertaken related to these lands and the village in general projected 2300 housing units for these lands. While Mr. Cairo’s portion of the lands has now been reduced from 1,000 housing units to 750 housing units, Mattamy Homes, which still owns the southern portion of the lands, is proposing a subdivision of 1,100 housing units. This would see a total of 1,850 housing units on these western development lands if the Mattamy subdivision goes ahead as proposed. Mr. Cairo said that his subdivision will be a plan which will be sensitive to the village and the village character, featuring robust front porches for homes and the Eastern Ontario village look. He said that advantages to having new homes built in the village are more students to sustain the village schools and, in the long run, more economic stimulation for the local commercial sector in the village.

Hit song after hit song at Gaia Java coffee shop John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

News - It was Gretchen Martin who was at the microphone and keyboard at the music evening at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville last Friday. But the music that she filled the shop with was an assortment of songs made famous by a host of performers, ranging from Creedence Clearwater Revival to George Strait to the Beatles to The Eagles to Sting to Cyndi Lauper to Fleetwood Mac to Billy Joel to Carly Simon and more – now that’s quite a lineup. It was familiar hit song after hit song all through the evening. It is no wonder that Gaia Java regulars are always asking when she will be playing at a Friday music evening. Last Friday’s first half before an intermission saw Gretchen deliver with the Creedence Clearwater Revival song “Have You Ever Seen The Rain?�, followed by a tune that was a hit for George Strait, the King of Country,

namely “I Just Want To Dance With You.� But Gretchen’s versatility showed when she then launched into “Be My Baby,� the 1963 hit by the American girl group The Ronettes. This is a song that has been recognized as one of the best ever. Indeed, in 2004, Rolling Stone magazine ranked “Be My Baby� at number 22 on its list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. She followed up this iconic Ronettes song with the Beatles “Here Comes The Sung� and then sang that perennial favourite, “Tennessee Waltz,� made so famous way back in 1950 by Patti Page. And as if Patti Page were not enough from that musical time period, Gretchen then sang “Crazy,� a ballad composed by country music singer Willie Nelson which was a 1962 hit for Patsy Cline. Since then, the song has been covered by dozens of singers – it’s just that good! There was more – Elton John’s “Daniel�; The Drifters 1964 hit “Under the Board-

walk� which has since been covered by many singers since its release by that American doo-wop and rhythm and blues/soul vocal group; “Blackbird,� the 1968 hit by the Beatles that has been covered by singers such as John Denver and Sarah McLachlan; “Tequila Sunrise,� the 1973 hit by the American rock band The Eagles; “Fields of Gold� by English singer Sting; and “Time After Time,� the first number one hit in the United States for singer Cyndi Lauper back in 1983. The second half of the program was just as good, with more Beatles tunes including“Strawberry Fields,� the Fleetwood Mac song “Landslide,� Vince Gill’s “When Love Finds You,� and Bonnie Raitt’s “I Don’t Want Anything To Change.� She pulled out another tune by The Eagles, “Desperado,� from the group’s 1973 album and also sang the melodic “Goodnight My Angel,� a lullabye tune written by Billy Joel, the American singer who is in both the Songwriters Hall

Travac Tours

of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Gretchen, who is from Winnipeg, admitted that she was never drawn to the music of fellow Winnipeger Neil Young but she did do his song “Help-

less� as covered by Canadian singer K.D. Lang. She wound up her performance at the Friday music evening at the Gaia Java shop with Carly Simon’s power ballad “Nobody Does It Better�

John Curry/Metroland

Gretchen Martin is ready to go at her keyboard at the music evening at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville last Friday.

which was the theme song for the 1977 James Bond film “The Spy Who Loved Me.� Gretchen thanked Paul Jay of the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop for hosting these Friday music evenings, saying that there is a need for more live music venues. She called the Gaia Java shop an intimate spot where she always feels the love from the audience. Gretchen Martin grew up in Winnipeg where her parents started her on piano lessons when she was five years old. Her father was a church organist and music professor at the University of Manitoba while her mother was also a church organist and a piano teacher. Gretchen has recently joined the Ottawa Idol Band as its keyboardist. This Ottawa Idol project was founded by Eldon Fox with a view to encouraging young singers from the Ottawa area to strive for their musical dreams. Free music evenings happen at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop every Friday starting at 7 p.m. Early arrival is recommended for the best seating.

RVA thanks volunteer for years of involvement

Fundraising dinner/dance to help Richmond resident Special to the News

News - A fundraising dinner and dance is being held on Saturday, Nov. 22 to help Richmond resident Mark Pittuck who recently suffered numerous injuries in a work accident. The accident involved the cables on his tow truck as a cable broke, hitting him in the face. This resulted in a crushed jaw, the loss of teeth and head injuries. In addition, he also suffered a stroke. All this has left Mark with a long recovery ahead of him involving lots of physio and rehabilitation, medical visits, medications and more. Being a self-employed tow truck driver, Mark has no benefits or income subsidy to help him and his family survive this period financially. That’s why the fundraiser is being held, with all funds raised going into an account to help pay medical expenses, rehabilitation and anything else needed so that Mark can get back on his feet again. The fundraising dinner/dance on Saturday, Nov. 22 will be held at the Twin Elm Rugby Park just outside Richmond. The dinner will feature lasagna, salad, buns and dessert, starting at 5 p.m. and costing $15 per person. From 8 p.m. to 11 p.m., there will be a dance at a cost of only $7 per person. The music for the dance will be provided by Doug and Pam Champagne, Stephane Coulombe, Rockt Bigford and Stephanie Fairbairn. All of these performers are donating their time for the event. Tickets for this fundraising dinner/dance are on sale now and are available from Wendy Pittuck at 613-4440250, Greg Allen at 613-617-3113, Wendy FergusonVaughn at 613-838-4053 or Tanya Bruce at 613-3257973 or by stopping by JD Costoms at 3412 McBean Street or Capital Services at 2051 Huntley Road.

Special to the News

News - The Richmond Village Association (RVA) has thanked longtime RVA worker and supporter Bruce Webster for his years of involvement with the RVA. RVA president Tino Bevacqua presented a memento of appreciation and thanks to Mr. Webster at the beginning of the RVA’s November meeting at the Richmond library branch on Tuesday, Nov. 4. President Bevacqua said that the RVA and its Board of Directors wanted to thank Mr. Webster for his efforts over the years and for his commitment to the village of Richmond. Mr. Webster is moving to the Vancouver area to be closer to his family. It was back in 1970 when Bruce and his wife Pierrette purchase their Cockburn Street home in Richmond. Bruce’s wife Pierrette passed way four years ago. When he received the RVA memento at the meeting, Mr. Webster said that Richmond had been a wonderful place for he and his family, noting that his son had been raised in the village. He said that he got involved with the RVA because he liked the village and wanted to help it. He said that in the end he believes that the RVA managed to protect village interest as best it could against the efforts of developers and the city bureaucracy.

Legacy Gift will generate $42.2 MILLION for CHEO over next 100 years WHAT IS FOREVER CHEO? Weldon Cochrane was an Ottawa chartered accountant and partner with the accounting firm of Coopers and Lybrand (now PriceWaterhouseCoopers) and was also the Treasurer on the CHEO Foundation Board. Mr. Cochrane had an appreciation for the importance of leaving a legacy and understood how to make an impact when he decided to made a gift in his Will to CHEO. He left the residual of his estate with instructions for it to be endowed; meaning that the capital would be preserved in perpetuity and the annual interest would be used to fund the important work at CHEO. When Mr. Cochrane died in 1985 the CHEO Foundation received $540,000 from his estate and established the Weldon Cochrane Endowment Fund as directed in his Will. Much has happened and changed at CHEO since his death and in that time his legacy gift has grown to $4.6 million. Moving forward 80 percent of the interest generated from this fund will be invested in medical equipment, research and hospital programs at CHEO. The remaining 20 percent will be reinvested to allow the fund to continue to grow. In 25 years $6.4 million (80%) will go to the hospital and $1.6 million (20%) will be reinvested bringing the total value of the fund to $6.2 million. In 50 years $15 million (80%) will go to the hospital and $3.8 million (20%) will be reinvested bringing the total value of the fund to $8.4 million. In 100 years $42.2 million (80%) will go to the hospital and $10.6 million (20%) will be reinvested bringing the total value of the fund to $15.2 million. R0012962991

His legacy lives on and continues to make a difference in the lives of young patients at CHEO today, and for future generations.

As CHEO marks its 40th anniversary this year, we look back and honour not only those in our community who made our local children’s hospital a reality, but also donors like Mr. Cochrane who made children a priority. Why not honour what is most important to you during your lifetime by considering a gift in Will to CHEO. Our children, youth and families deserve to always have excellent health care, to benefit from lifesaving research and be provided with the support programs to live happy and healthy lives now and forever.

THE IMPACT OF MR. COCHRANE’S GENEROUS GIFT IS PROBABLY BEYOND WHAT HE COULD HAVE EVEN IMAGINED WHEN HE MADE IT OVER 30 YEARS AGO.

Forever CHEO is a way to ensure that CHEO will always be here to provide excellent care, life-saving research and invaluable support to children and their families every day by making a gift from your estate. When you leave a gift in your Will to CHEO you have the option of designating it to address immediate needs within the Hospital, the Research Institute or the Forever CHEO Endowment Fund. This fund will preserve the full amount of your gift and disperse the interest to CHEO annually. Since the fund will live on in perpetuity, so will your gift to future generations of children at CHEO. This is a way to leave a permanent and meaningful mark on your community.

61% of the children and youths available for adoption are 13 or older.

Teenagers constituted only 4% of the 830 children and youth adopted across Ontario.

While every child is unique, the one thing that each child has in common is the need for a family.

FAMILY LAW in a Box presents

Divorce Straight Talk

Sports - This year’s National Capital Amateur Football Association (NCAFA) Volunteer of the Year comes from the Bell Warriors family. Carmen Schwartz of Nepean, who is the vice-president of administration for the Bell Warriors football Club this year, has been selected as the NCAFA 2014 Volunteer of the Year. This honour comes on top of her recent selection as the 2014 Bell Warriors Volunteer of the Year. This is the second straight year that the NCAFA Volunteer of the Year has been a Bell Warriors volunteer. Last year the Bell Warriors director of canteens Karin Statham was named NCAFA Volunteer of the Year. Bell Warriors Football Club president Paul Stewart points out in his nomination letter for Carmen Schwartz that in his 13 years with the Warriors organization, the Club has never benefitted from as many engaged and loyal supporters and he credits this to Carmen’s work. He praises Carmen’s professional, tireless, selfless and warm demeanor, noting that Carmen has always approached her role as a Bell Warriors supporter “with a professional slant that continues to reinforce a culture of excellence.” “She motivates. She supports. She communicates. She makes us all better and prouder to be Warriors,” Mr. Stewart wrote about Carmen Schwartz in the nomination letter.

The letter refers to her as “a one-of-a-kind volunteer that is a phenomenal ambassador for the Warriors and NCAFA.” Carmen Schwartz has been a volunteer with the Bell Warriors for the past nine years, holding positions such as assistant team manager mosquito, mosquito and pee wee team manager, director of Warrior wear and promo items, director of managers and volunteers and vicepresident of administration. She developed a package of protocols for the Warriors team managers to ensure transpar-

ent and consistent transition from year to year. She developed a standardized delivery of communications to each team which has resulted in consistent messaging. She created a position as liaison between the Warriors executive and supporters, players and volunteers and has overseen the delivery and organization of Warriors events. “If we had more people as selfless, energetic and committed to their community as Carmen, we would have very few concerns,” Mr. Stewart says. “She’s a true gem!”
