JAMES GORDON CONCERT BRITTON: Ross Willard July 4, 1929 - February 14, 2018 Peaceful ly on Wednesday, February 14, 2018 at his home in Acton. Ross, in his 89th year was the beloved husband of Marjorie (Steeper) for 59 years. Loving father of Clifford (Gabriela), Jim (Rosa), Janet (Mike) Baynton, and Cathy. Special grandpa to his many grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren. Son of the late Willard and Mary Britton of Acton. Dear brother of Shirley (Don) Swackhamer and brother- in-law of Mervin Thomson. Predeceased by his sisters Betty (Calvin) McIntyre and Eleada Thomson. He will fondly be remembered as a dedicated farmer who was also known to share a story or two and we all know that he loved to tell tales. The family would like to thank all the healthcare professionals for their care provided to Ross and to Rev. Todd Nelson for his spiritual comfort and ministering. A sincere thanks also goes out to family and friends for their prayers and kind support through the trying times since Ross broke his hip almost a year ago. The family received friends at MacKinnon Family Funeral Home, 55 Mill St. E., Acton on Monday, February 19, 2018 from 2 to 4 p.m. and from 7 to 9 p.m. A Funeral Service was held at Knox Presbyterian Church, 44 Main St. N., Acton on Tuesday, February 20, 2018 at 1:30 p.m. Interment followed at Fairview Cemetery, Acton.

It requires extra concentration and improved reaction time. Rain is blamed for many accidents, but many of these situations are largely preventable among drivers who adapt to the weather and roadway conditions. Here are some things to consider. • Recognize that rain can cause slick condi- tions. A film of water develops on the road- ways, and that can affect the performance of your vehicle's tires. Hydroplaning, or coast- ing on the surface of the water, is common. • Water spraying up onto tires and brakes can compromise braking ability. That means it could take longer to stop under wet condi- tions. Do not tailgate and leave extra room between vehicles. • Avoid extremely large puddles. You cannot judge the depth of the puddle and you may end up getting stuck, especially in the event of roadway flooding. • Use extra care watch- ing out for pedestrians. A normally observant person may be distract- ed by the rain, puddles and wrangling an um- brella and veer into the path of cars. • Change wiper blades twice per year. With- out an effective wiper blade, rain cannot be cleared effectively from the windshield. • Limit distractions in- side of the car to focus even more of your attention on the road. • Leave extra time to get to your destination. • Make way for emer- gency personnel. Pull over to allow emer- gency vehicles to pass by. If there are flashing lights on the side of the road, move into the left lane to give a wide girth around first responders. Driving in the rain re- quires drivers to exercise caution. Making a few ad- justments improves safety on the roadways. Driving Tips: Rainy Conditions
