We were saddened to hear of the passing of Albert (Bert) Bechamp. He was the dear partner and caregiver of Kathy Lynn Gerundin. Bert worked in the education profession in Shawville and Campbell’s Bay Schools. He was a principal for over 30 years. Bert worked tirelessly and loved his blueberry field. Bert was known in the Pontiac as an historian and was very proud of his native roots. At one time, Bert played ball and hockey. Our heartfelt sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this difficult time. You will be missed dear Bert, may you RIP.

We were saddened to hear of the passing of Frank Daniel Wendorf of Pembroke. He was the beloved husband of 72 years to Loretto Wendorf (nee O’Meara.) Our heartfelt sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this difficult time.

Happy 7th birthday is wished to Zoey Valliquette, granddaughter of Paulette and Yvan Pelletier. Zoey celebrated her birthday on Mar. 2.

John Romain is celebrating a birthday on Mar. 9. We hope it is a good one.

Don’t forget to set your clocks an hour head before going to bed this coming Saturday. We spring forward to daylight savings time. It sure will be nice to have more daylight hours in the evening.
