Warm birthday wishes are extended to my dear friend Georgette Beaubien who celebrated . . .

her birthday on Nov 28. 

Happy birthday wishes and love are extended to my sister Susan Pilon, of Casselman, who celebrated her birthday on Nov. 29. We hope that you enjoyed your special day Sue.

We were saddened to hear of the passing of Ray Elburn Dagg of Shawville. He was the beloved husband of the late Sheila (Laframboise) Dagg. Sheila and Elburn had lived in Waltham for a time. Our heartfelt sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this time. 

Our heartfelt sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with Mary (McCann) Michaud in the recent passing of her beloved husband James (Jimmy) Michaud. Jimmy was born and raised in Sheenboro but was residing in Ottawa.

We were saddened to hear of the passing of Desmond “Des” Sullivan of Ottawa and formerly of Chapeau. He was the dearly loved son of the late Teresa (nee Burke) and Victor Sullivan. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this sad time.

On Sunday afternoon, the children in Waltham enjoyed a Christmas party at the Waltham Town Hall. They enjoyed making crafts, gingerbread houses and treats. Santa paid a special visit.

Kayla Soucie-Moreau is celebrating her birthday on Dec. 7 and Brenda Bertrand-Rehel on Dec. 8. All the best is wished to you both. Best wishes to all others who are celebrating birthdays and anniversaries this coming week.

I cannot believe that this is the first week of Advent in the church calendar. It is a time to reflect as we prepare to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
