There have been several sightings of a mother bear and her three cubs roaming around Waltham. Please take precautionary measures with your children and pets.
Heather Romain of London, Ont. was a recent visitor at Gilda and Art Heany’s.
This past weekend, Elizabeth Ethier, her daughters Paulette, Connie and grandson Travis visited Aunt Libby’s brother Elmer and son Blaine Burine in Stouffville, Ont. They had a most enjoyable visit.
On Friday morning, we received heavy rain. It was badly needed rain for the crops, gardens, flowers and it lowered the risk of forest fires.
Belated anniversary wishes are extended to Anne and Chris Duff who recently celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary.

Heartfelt sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with the Venasse family of Chichester, Que. in the recent passing of Willis Venasse. He was the beloved husband of the late Denise Venasse. (nee St. Martin).
Waltham was saddened to hear of the passing of long time resident, Grace Allard (nee Carroll). Grace was the beloved wife of the late James Allard. Grace was a woman of great faith and had a deep devotion to St. Theresa. If anyone needed special prayers or a confidante, they would call upon Grace. Her number one priority was her family and she welcomed everyone into her home with open arms. Her nieces and nephews just loved her and gravitated to her. She enjoyed a good game of cards and being of Irish decent she was quite feisty at times. Because of her tiny frame some called her Little Grandma. Our heartfelt sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends at this time. She will be truly missed.
Heartfelt sympathy, thoughts and prayers are with Faye Ziese and family in the recent passing of her beloved husband Peter. He was a brother-in-law of Terry Belaire.
Anniversary wishes are extended to Sally and Paul Romain who celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary this past week. May you share many more.
Jenny Godin-Fleury celebrated a birthday on Aug. 20. We hope you had a lovely birthday Jenny.
Anne Romain-Duff and Travis Andrews are celebrating their birthdays Aug. 28. We hope that you both enjoy your special day.
