After the loss of a child, parents and surviving children \experience acute grief. It may begin with shock and disbelief, followed by anger, guilt, fear, sorrow and depression. In facing these feelings, one learns to live with the loss. Emotions may be so intense that families do not unders- tand what is happening to them. They may need support during these difficult times. Feelings of isolation, hopelessness and despair may lead to marital difficulties, or drug or alcohol dependency. Surviving children may ~ mistake their parents' anguish as a sign that they loved the dead child more than they love them. These children suffer many of the feelings parents experience, but they are even less able than the adults to in- dentify or cope with them. Friends, relatives and even caring profes- sionals may not fully understand these emotions and reactions. We have discovered that the people who truly understand the grief are ihose who have experienced the same tragedy.

Plans call for 91 new homes on the 200 acre parcel of land which fronts on Lake Scugog, and would be constructed in two phases. Subdivision plans for Honey Heights unveiled for council Plans for a subdivision with 91 new homes were unveiled for Township council Monday afternoon. The subdivision, called Honey Heights, is located on land on the east side of the Seagrave Road, just south of the 9th Concession Road. Planner Henry Kortekaas, representing developers George and Willy Stone, told council the 91 lots would be developed in two stages with 67 in Phase 1 and the remain- ing 24 in Phase Two. He said the lot size would range from three- quarters of an acre to about 1.5 acres. Access into the subdivision would be via one road connecting to the 9th Concession and another linking with the Castle Harbour development to the south. Mr. Kortekaas said the plans call for two blocks of parkland and a third park in the western part of the lands containing baseball diamonds and a soccer field. There would also be access to the lakefront and a the Gate RESTAURANT TAVERN f-- Family style dining for your enjoyment OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK LARGE MENU SELECTION RESERVE NOW For the Holiday Season Full Course DINNERS & LUNCHEON SPECIALS CY 'N DINE \N PRIVA o K RO MM THE OR tor 15 persons Bates al! occasons Port Perry Plaza Hwy. 7A - Port Perry private lake access provided for members of the current Honey's Beach Property Owners Association. George Stone told council Monday afternoon, he has held informal meetings with the residents of Honey's Beach and there was no serious objection to the development proposal, provided new wells do not have any adverse impact on ex- isting water supplies. Hydrologist Walter Gibson told the meeting that initial tests in- dicate sufficient supplies of water at deeper aquafer levels from those in which existing residents of the area get their water. Mr. Kortekaas stressed to council several times that the plan presented Monday afternoon was strictly at the preliminary concep- tual stage. However, some members of coun- cil indicated concerns over water supplies and septic systems. And there were other concerns raised by council about the number of water- front lots. Ward 2 councillor Howard Hall said the number of lots in the development will finally be decided by the Health Unit based on soil tests, but he said he agrees in prin- cipal that the location is a good one for a new subdivision. But area councillor Harvey Graham said he is concerned in a more general sense about housing developments in essentially rural areas. "The question for me is not the number of lots, but just how much development does the council want to see outside the Port Perry area. I've been very negative towards other rural (housing) developments,' he stated. Council will decide in two weeks whether to give the proposal ap- proval in principal, which is the first step in a usually lengthy process leading to the final green light for the development.
