THE PORT PERRY STAR WAGG FUNERAL HOME Expert, compassionate care recognized Staff at the Wagg Funeral Home know how important a funeral ser- vice can be. It is a time to honour loved ones and recognize their prominence in our lives. It also gives families time to gain strength from one another as they begin to accept the loss. Caring and compas- sionate treatment of fami- lies is the hallmark of Wagg Funeral Home. Owned and operated by Myles O'Riordan, the funeral home is conve- niently located in beauti- ful downtown Port Perry and offers plenty of off- street paved parking. The Wagg Funeral Home, - "McDermott-Panabaker Chapel", continues the tradition of serving area families, dating back to 1846. The Wagg Funeral Home now offers a Genesis Bereavement Resource Centre. The pri- mary goal of the program is to provide support and encouragement to the bereaved. The shelves in the library are also stocked with different books and videos relating to death, dying, grief and bereavement. Working with Myles is licensed funeral director, Mark Fletcher, and former PPHS co-op student Owen St. John who is currently serving his apprenticeship at Wagg's. The rest of the support staff consists of Rae Webster, Ken Richards, Jack Cracknell, Stan Teggart, receptionist Eithne O'Riordan and organist Audrey Beauchamp. For most people, pre- arranging one's funeral is very personal and requires some thought. To help in this very deli- cate area Janice Hathaway works with the staff as a pre-arrangement counsel- lor. Staff is on the premises seven days a week during business hours, and thcre is 24-hour telephone cov- erage. "I like living in a small- er community. The peo- ple here are my friends," Myles says. "When they are grieving, 1 want to do everything I can to help." TRANSMISSION SPECIALISTS THANK YOU! | for voting us #1 Transmission | 178 Reach Industrial Park Rd., Unit D Port Perry, Ont.

In the business for 18 years, Nick's hard work and dedication to auto body repairs has made him a suc- cess in the industry. He believes in honesty, fair price and quality of work. Fair price is important in the trade. While there is always someone willing to do the work for a few dollars less, Nick prices the job he feels is necessary to make a correct repair. Should you have an accident with your vehicle, Nick's auto body shop provides many conveniences, such as towing, the arrangement of a rental car and his staff are quick to have the needed paper work done for you. Contrary to what many believe, it is your right to have your vehicle fixed at the body shop of your choice. The same holds true with towing. It isn't the insurance company's decision and you don't have to get two or three estimates. Though Nick and his staff of four mainly do collision work, everything from tiny dents to a written off, smashed car can be repaired in the spacious shop.
