I would like to send out a speedy recovery to Shirley Pepin who just underwent surgery on Friday.

I would also like to send get well wishes to Isabell Kluke who is a patient in Shawville Hospital.

Animal Aide Pontiac received a generous donation from the family and friends of Frank Frobel in his memory. It was greatly appreciated.

This weather is really starting to disgust me. Last night a tornado hit Gatineau and Ottawa causing all kinds of damage. We’re not used to this kind of crazy weather. All I know is that I still haven’t got my garden in. It is just too wet and too cold. I sure hope we have an extended summer because we won’t get the gardens we want.

I would like to wish the following people a very happy birthday. Blair Frost on June 6, Susan Hearty, John Thomas Wrinn Peter Normandeau, Sheila Lawn, Robert Hearty and Rowan Hill who all celebrate on June 7, to Joey Dubeau on June 8, and to Francis Mayhew and Jason Dubeau on June 9.

Happy anniversary wishes go out to Brenda and Blair Frost on June 8 and to Roxanne and Joe Paré on June 10.

Last Wednesday, I went to see the Game of Tiaras held at Pontiac High School. It was a tragic comedy and the costumes, the set up and the acting were absolutely wonderful. Rowan Hill played Ellie the snow queen and also helped design some of the costumes. They all did a wonderful job acting but there were a few characters that really stuck out. One of them was Alex Mayhew who played the blood packet guy and really kept the crowd laughing.

Prince Charming who was played by Thomas Beck also quite entertaining. Belle was played by Josée Graveline, Cinderella by Kelsey Beaulieu, Snow White by Lila Galipeau, King by Grant Moore, Little Mermaid by Monica Tanguay and Pocahontas played by Melody Freeland.

The two narrators, Emma Cameron and Autumn Hovey did a fantastic job setting the scene and narrating the story. Congratulations to all of you who performed on and off the stage and for all the crew, lighting stage and costume designers. A lot of work and many hours of practice were put into this place and it was very successful.
