30 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, November 24, 1987 School held its own Remembrance service Blackstock and Area News by Joyce Kelly Some of those who attended the impressive annual Remembrance Day Service at Blackstock on November 11 remarked about the absence of the school children. There is a very good reason for that the staff and senior students of C.C.P.S. arranged a very mean- ingful service at the school for Remembrance Day. Special music was provided by the School Band under the direction of John Bierness and Judy Jeffrey. Rev. Davis spoke to the students on the meaning of Remembrance Day. Special pictures of life in the trenches were shown. Indeed a very meaningful service and an excellent reason why the students did not at- tend the public service.

Lisa is the voungest daughter of Helen and on Fashion PORT PERRY PLAZA Stuart Dorrell.

I'm sorry we didn't send our thoughts of sympathy earlier to the Edgar family for the recent decease of Ernie Edgar who was well known and had spent his life at the Foot of the Island. This last week two more well known Island people passed away. Maude Brown had spent much of her life and raised her family on the Island and was honoured by having the road named after her. However, she spent her later years in Port Perry. Then a relative Perc. Brown living on the same road also passed away last week. Therefore the Island people convey their con- dolences to the family and relatives. Mrs. Reta Reader spent the last week in Barrie where she went to at- tend the funeral of her sister's hus- band who had passed on after much suffering, following surgery. RAGLAN VARIETY helpful puller was once again won by Earle Trewin. Congratulations. Dick Reid of Nestleton was presented with the hard luck trophy. Earle Trewin won two 3rd place standings with his Light Pro-Stock tractor and a 3rd and 4th with his heavy Pro-Stock tractor in the Cir- cuit Results. Mark Graham placed 5th in the Heavy Pro-Stock Class. Tractor pullers and supporters were present from Tweed, Grand Valley, Ariss, Barrie, Bolton and many other points in Central Ontario.
