MAIDSTONE — I’m back from a six-week holiday spent in Prince George, B.C. with my daughter, Jean, and her family. It was most restful and enjoyable.
Congratulations to Denise Newton on her 80th birthday Monday. Denis enjoyed coffee and cake with a number of friends and family held at the home of Dorothy Harmel. Those of her family here are her sister Rosemary McColemon of Sudbury, Ont., daughter Coreen of Red Deer, Alta., son Kevin of Prince Albert, daughter Kesia and husband Geoerge and sons Shae and Corban and a granddaughter Kiana of Choiceland.
