"A Family Tradition for 128 Years" Co Council members pay tribute at last meeting for Harvey Graham By Jeff Mitchell Port Perry Star Council colleagues bade a fond farewell to Harvey Graham Monday evening when the Ward Councillor for Scugog attended his final council meeting. Presentation of a plaque and a painting followed the brief meeting, the last in the current council's mandate, called to take care of a few housekeeping matters. Mr. Graham, whose involve- ment in municipal politics in Scugog and the former Cartwright Township has spanned 30 years, said he'll fondly remember his days around the council table. He said that while some assume the councillor's job is a dreary one punctuated only by criticism, he has had a great time as a local representative. "I thoroughly enjoyed it," said Mr. Graham Monday evening (Nov. 21). "I had very few people who would come to me over the years and be very critical of the way council has handled things." Outgoing Ward 1 Councillor Ken Carruthers, with whom Mr. Graham has enjoyed good- natured verbal sparring during the course of the last term, called the Area Councillor the "senior daddy" of the council. He added Mr. Graham is "the most open-minded of the whole council." Those kinds of comments have been numerous in the days leading up to Mr. Graham's departure. He is described as an even-tempered and thought- ful councillor, who preferred to sit back and let debate run its course around him before enter- ing the fray with carefully- thought out comments, or sug- gestions for conflict resolution. He made the decision to quit local politics when his Ward councillor's seat was eliminated in favor of a new Ward 5 seat, representing Port Perry. Mr. Graham will continue farming at his Breezy Acres farm in Cartwright, and is cur- rently vice-president of the Ontario Association. Harvey Graham (seated at right) was honored at his last council meeting Nov. 21 as he prepared to vacate the Area Councillor's seat. Mayor Howard Hall (seated) and Councillors Ken Gadsden (left), Marilyn Pearce and Ken Carruthers joined in the send-off, which saw 4 Cattlemens' Mr. Graham being presented a plaque and a painting by the mayor. process.
