It releases them from having to quickly make decisions in their time of grief. It also frees them from the need to pay costs associated with your cemetery arrangements. Contact one of our family counsellors to discuss your wishes and options.

"When our community comes together it is incredibly inspiring. It is absolutely heartwarming to watch people reconnect year after year at our walk events, as they support one another and extend a warm welcome to new participants." On average, one in 10 Canadians has kidney disease and millions more are at risk, according to the Kidney Foundation of Canada. Kidney disease is treated with dialysis or a kidney transplant; there is no cure. Over 12,000 Ontarians depend on life- sustaining dialysis treatments several times a week and many of those waiting for a transplant need a kidney. Ontario's goal this year is $1 million for research and to support programs and re- sources for those living with kidney dis- ease.

THINGS TO DO HALTON KIDNEY WALK SEPT. 14 AT BRONTE CREEK PROVINCIAL PARK SIGN UP FOR OUR WEEKLY NEWSLETTER AT THEIFP.CA The Georgetown Little Theatre is gear- ing up to deliver studio shows of the unusu- al variety. Entitled Oddities - a Bizarre Evening of Live Entertainment, the performances running over the course of six nights in Georgetown and Acton will feature a se- ries of one-act plays. They will hit the stage at the George- town Little Theatre from Sept. 12-14 and the Acton Town Hall on Sept. 19-21. The four one-act plays include: Fair Rosamund And Her Murderer by Don Nigro (directed by Litisha Perez, who's new to the Georgetown Little Thea- tre): A romance unfolds in an unwitting encounter between a maiden and her as- sassin. Romance and sanity is questioned in a literal maze of emotions. One Tennis Shoe by Shel Silverstein (di- rected by A. Frank Willis Jr., who wrote and directed the hit show Family Affair in 2017): A married couple is forced to con- front the many absurdities of life; one such absurdity found in an errant tennis shoe. Will love prevail, or are they mismatched? Naomi in the Livingroom by Christo- pher Durang (directed by Cat Wilkinson, who played Blanche in this year's perfor- mance of a Streetcar Named Desire): A vis- it home reveals a dark, twisted, chaotic force. Buckle up, visiting the in-laws doesn't usually writhe around this much. The Lunatic From Number 7 by Rich- ard Turtle (directed by Marilyn Nicholas- Dahan, who directed Streetcar Named De- sire): He's the man with problems to solve, feelings to process and lots to say. The only problem: He's locked in the bathroom all weekend. A parental advisory has been issued for the plays as they have mature themes. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. and the shows start at 8 p.m. Tickets cost $10. Refresh- ments and snacks will be served. For more information and to purchase tickets visit georgetownlittletheatre.ca.
