We all welcomed Randy Abel with hugs; very glad to see him following the difficult time he and his family have been through with the passing of his daughter and the recent fire at his house. Randy thanked everyone for their support, thoughts and wishes in the loss of his daughter, Lindsey. He also gave the members an update on the impact of the house fire.
Happy Dollars: Jessica gave Happy Dollars to celebrate her sister, Marion’s, 66th birthday and the 95th anniversary of her father’s birth. Wayne was happy that he, Ralph and their wives had attended a Rotary Foundation dinner. Scott was happy to report that his daughter has received honours two years in a row at Dundas Valley Secondary School, noting her 98% in History. Former History teachers Ernie and Art were pleased. George’s son received an excellence award in tutoring from University of Waterloo, named after Sir Sandford Fleming. Keeping on the history theme, Ernie gave George a pop quiz on Fleming. He was remembered as the inventor of Standard Time and retroactively promoted to Prime Minister. Shirley was happy because she’s always happy.
