She was so special, so wonderful. Kortney was a whirlwind, always on the go. She loved socServing Halton Hills cer and loved "hanging out" with her Dad, my husband Terry. & Surrounding Areas Even in first grade she was excelling in school. There was never a dull moment! 280 Guelph St. But Kortney's gone. Terry and I and Kortney's older sister, Georgetown Market Place Kodi, will spend the rest of our lives without this bright light. 905-873-0301 www.independentfreepress.com She was taken from us by a 17-year-old who had been up drinking at a house party just a block away from where we live. ED PEAVOY SEPTIC PUMPING I was driving that morning, in our minivan. Kortney and 30 YEARS EXPERIENCE Kodi were with me in the van as were my sisters, Roxanne and her little boy Kolten. We were stopped at a road construction site, with four cars in front of us, waiting to be passed through. But the 17-year-old driver who had consumed alcohol PUMPING OF ·HOLDING TANKS ·SEPTIC TANKS ·AROBIC TANKS didn't stop. He plowed into the back of our van, driving it Pump and Servicing into the cars in front of us. Kortney was killed outright. The Pressure Line Flushing rest of us suffered severe injuries. 519-833-9180 The driver who hit our van escaped without injury. And to Toll free 1-877-232-0229 P.O. BOX 709, ERIN, ON this very day, my anguish over Kortney's loss is made even worse by the fact that the boy who killed her has never shown any remorse, none at all, for what he did! I'm not telling you about Kortney to ask for your sympathy. I'm asking you for something else entirely. I'm asking you to join me in fighting to keep what happened to Kortney and to us from happening to others ­ maybe even someone in your family. If we can prevent even one death from impaired driving, perhaps Kortney's death will at least have some meaning. So I am asking you today to do two things, really. The first is to join MADD Halton & Peel Chapter and supporting the www.bathstudio.ca kinds of programs and efforts that can put an end to Canada's impaired driving nightmare. Second, I ask you, please, to tell one person today NOT to DRINK & DRIVE. Ask that person to tell one other person. If we all do that, keep that chain intact and growing, we can save lives, we will save lives. Rhonda Burge Lic. by the M.O.E. Be Responsible Don't Drink & Drive!
