a "A Family Tradition for 131 Years" PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, December 23, 1997 - 11 Merry Christmas, and may 1998 see your dreams come true To start the news this week, Diane and I would like to wish everyone a very "Merry Christmas," "Happy New Year" and all the best for a healthy, happy and prosperous 1998. As the song says "May All Your Dreams Come True." Happy birthday this week to Stan Thomas who has a very special birthday on Christmas Day. Since we won't be doing the news before 1998 I would like to wish our son Billy a happy birthday. Bill celebrates his birth- day on Dec. 31 and his birthday usually gets lost in the new year celebra- tions. Happy birthday Bill from Mom, Dad and Ashleigh.
