Deepest sympathies are extended to the family of Jeanne (Proulx) Aubin who passed away on Sept. 22 after a courageous battle with cancer. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Proulx family and all of Jeanne’s loved ones at this sad time.

Condolences to the family of Vivert Martineau who passed away on Sept. 28. The community is thinking of the Martineau family as they grieve this loss.

Our prayers are with the family and friends of Angela Coyle who passed away recently. Sending love and comfort to all who are suffering and feeling sad as Angela was well loved in our community.

This past Saturday, I took part in the Shawville Fall Street Market where I set up a table with my Watkins products. I admit that the rain had me skeptical, but it ended up being a very successful event with many people out enjoying the vendors and shops along Main Street in Shawville. Kudos to Jill McBane for organizing the market and to all who took part. I’m already looking forward to my next opportunity to share my Watkins business with others, at the Onslow Christmas Craft and Vendor Sale on Nov. 13. Be sure to mark your calendars.

Birthday wishes are going out to Layla Young on Oct. 10 and to Lindsay Hamilton and Beverley Stanley on Oct. 12th. Best wishes to everyone celebrating this week.

I hope all of you enjoy a beautiful Thanksgiving with your families. We get busy and often forget all that is around us that we have to be grateful for. I always take this weekend as a reminder to take stock and count my blessings and I trust that you will too. Happy Thanksgiving.
