IN MEMORIAMS CAMERON, Garnet - In loving memory of my dear husband who passed away March 25th, 2009. I often sit and think of you, And cry a silent tear, You live with me in memory, Each day throughout the year. How can I ever forget you, When everything I do, Is something that reminds me, Of the years I spent with you. Forever in my heart, Carol In loving memory of "In good times, you should advertise. In bad times, you've got to advertise!" Advertising is not an expense - it's a necessity. There was never a company that developed a strong brand name for itself, or for its products, without first creating a methodical/long-term marketing strategy. The short-term cost of a smart and well-executed advertising campaign should never be compared with the price of the company phone bill or the gas bill. The fact is, it takes time to build a strong brand, and it takes money to connect with consumers. McDonald's didn't sell more than 1 billion hamburgers overnight! In a rough economy, you really can't afford to throw your money away by advertising with the wrong or ineffective medium. It's hard enough for small-business owners to keep an eye on their day-to-day operations, let alone know everything that there is to know about marketing and advertising. That is why you should let us, your local newspaper, handle your advertising needs. We are delivered to every home in Halton Hills and have any size or shape of advertising to suit your budget. Timothy J. Bludd March 12th,1959 - March 25th,2009 It's been one full year since you've been gone but your memories we cherish still linger on. Looking down upon us from the Heavens so high it's hard not to think of you without tears in our eyes. Until that day we meet again, we love you, husband, father, poppa and friend.
