Citingtransportation study predictions that the roadlinkage would serve 13 vehicles in the peakmorning period and 7 vehicles in the peak afternoonperiod, councillor Qadri said that hewill be asking city staff if such a road linkageis really needed, given the minimal traffic volumescited in the transportation study associatedwith the proposed subdivision.While admitting that all options regardingthis linkage are still on the table, he said that hewill talk with the city’s transportation expertsand hear what they recommend.He said that he will then try to marry thisrecommendation up with the wishes of thecommunity.It has been suggested that the proposed roadlinkage become a biking/pedestrian pathway,perhaps with access possible for emergencyvehicles. This linkage would provide a moredirect route to the new subdivision for firetrucks from the fire hall on Stittsville MainStreet via Carleton Cathcart Street than a routeusing Fernbank Road to get to the new subdivision.SVA president Phil Sweetnam said that it isimportant that connections between differentareas of Stittsville be put in place, even if theyare just biking and pedestrian linkages so thatthere is connections between these areas andresidents have more direct access to things likebus service.A public meeting about this proposed new581 unit subdivision on the north side of FernbankRoad immediately east of existing homeson John Sidney Crescent, Liard Street andCaribou Avenue in Stittsville has been scheduledfor Thursday, June 13 at 7 p.m. at the hallat the Johnny Leroux Stittsville CommunityArena in Stittsville.This proposed subdivision will includeabout 581 housing units made up of 285 singledetached homes and 296 semi-detached units.The single family homes will be located mainlyalong the western edge of the site in closestproximity to the existing residential developmentsas well as in the northern portion of thesite.There will have to be a zoning change forthe site for the subdivision to proceed as it requiresan urban residential zoning rather thanthe existing rural zoning.

<strong>NEWS</strong>Connected to your community‘Dueling guitars’ at Gaia Java’s music eveningJohn Curryjohn.curry@metroland.comEMC news - “Dueling Banjos,” a1955 song made famous in the 1972film “Deliverance,” showed howmusicians could feed off each other,with two together adding a unique dimensionto a song. Well, last Friday’smusic evening at the Gaia Java CoffeeCompany shop in Stittsville wasat times like “dueling guitars,” asfriends and fellow musicians GeoffDignam and Lucas Haneman highlightedtheir individual vocals withperiods of guitar jamming. Theywere not dueling, however, but rathercomplimenting each other with theirguitar playing.And so it was not surprising thatthe pair began their performance atGaia Java with Neil Young’s “Cowgirlin the Sand,” a song written byNeil Young himself and featuringlengthy guitar jams, meant to showcasehis guitar talents. And so whileGeoff Dignam did the vocals on thissong, both Geoff and Lucas addedtheir guitar stylings to the piece. NeilYoung would probably have beenproud of this rendition of his song.When the pair did Marvin Gaye’s1971 hit “What’s Going On,” Lucasdid the vocals which were interspersedwith periods of guitar playingby them both – not a duel but aduet, as it were.And so it went through the performance.There was “When I’mSixty-Four,” the iconic Beatles tunefrom the group’s 1967 album “Sgt.Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”;Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together,”the signature song for this Americansinger who is not only in theRock and Roll Hall of Fame but alsomade Rolling Stone magazine’s listof the 100 greatest musical artists ofall time; and more, all featuring notonly vocals but also appropriate guitarwork.Geoff Dignam, who grew up inStittsville, and Lucas Haneman metwhen attending Concordia Universityin Montreal and both are nowpursuing musical careers, living inMontreal.Geoff currently has a regular gigas a musician there but he reallywants to do more song writing andright now finds it difficult to do both.JOHN CURRY/METROLANDGeoff Dignam, left, and Lucas Haneman, right, are with their guitars attheir performance at the Friday music evening at the Gaia Java CoffeeCompany shop in Stittsville last Friday, May 24.He has a CD entitled “Songs of theJean Talon Market” in the workswhich should be coming out soon.You just know that Lucas Hanemanis something of a guitar fanwhen he tells you that he currentlyowns 14 guitars. He admits that thisis too many but he still has them.Currently Lucas is involved withmusic full time, partly as a musicteacher and partly as a performer.He has two CD’s already out. Now26 years old, he has been playing theguitar since the age of six.At the Gaia Java music eveninglast Friday, he had an array of footpedals at his disposal, all for producingdifferent sounds with his guitarplaying. And while his seven or eightpedals arrayed at the base of his microphonestand may seem like a lot,he says that there could be up to 50such pedals used by a performer.Geoff Dignam has performedpreviously at the Gaia Java shop inStittsville but this was the first timethat Geoff and Lucas performed togetherat the shop.These Friday music evenings atthe Gaia Java Coffee Company shopat the Stittsville Shopping Centre(where Shoppers Drug Mart is located)on Stittsville Main Street arefree for all who wish to attend.

<strong>NEWS</strong>Depth of lots considered uniqueJohn Curryjohn.curry@metroland.comEMC news - Stittsville Main Street hasnot been keeping pace with the growth takingplace in Stittsville in terms of servicesoffered in the view of city of Ottawa plannerCharles Lanktree who is heading the CommunityDesign Plan (CDP) now underwayabout the street.But the street does have some featuresthat are unique and could foster development.One is the deep lots that generally arefound along Stittsville Main Street. Suchdepth is not usually found along other similarstreets in the city of Ottawa.This provides a lot of potential for development,Mr. Lanktree told those attending ameeting open to the public about the ongoingStittsville Main Street CDP which washosted by the Stittsville District Lions Clubat the Lions Hall in Stittsville on Thursday,May 9.He noted that the deep lots will allow developmentnot just along the street but in therear area of such lots as well.Mr. Lanktree said that he is trying to balancethe provincial policy statement and thecity’s Official Plan direction urging more intensificationin urban areas against the concernexpressed by some Stittsville residentsabout the proposed building height limit ofsix storeys along Stittsville Main Street.He said that at present Stittsville MainStreet is underdeveloped and more densityand a greater mix of uses on the lots alongthe street are needed.He did admit, though, that this need to intensifydevelopment along the street needsto be done with a view to compatibility withexisting and adjacent development.Mr. Lanktree said that the city’s OfficialPlan allows that intensification with buildingsup to six storeys in height is permittedalong Traditional Main Streets of whichStittsville Main Street is designated as one.This means that such intensification has tobe allowed to happen although he admittedthat there can be some flexibility in this sothat a street does not become a “canyon” ofsix storey buildings.He said that the depth of a lot and thewidth of the street running past the lotshould be considered when determining theheight of a building allowed on any particularlot.Mr. Lanktree said that there needs to be abalance found between the concerns of residentsabout development along StittsvilleMain Street and the objectives of the city’sOfficial Plan and the province’s policy statementregarding intensification.“I have to find a balance in all of that,” hesaid, adding that everyone involved in thediscussion is going to have to compromisetheir views to some extent in this matter.City of Ottawa Stittsville ward councillorShad Qadri said at the meeting that his viewis that a so-called Traditional Main Street inStittsville is different than a street bearingthis same Traditional Main Street designationin Westboro or downtown Ottawa.David Jenkins, a director with the StittsvilleVillage Association who handles itsplanning portfolio, noted that of the 17 TraditionalMain Streets identified in the city’sOfficial Plan, Stittsville Main Street is theonly one located outside the greenbelt, givingit a uniqueness from the other 16.He said that everyone wants to see StittsvilleMain Street develop but similarly noone wants to be overwhelmed with inappropriatedevelopment along the street.Connected to your communitySee garden, help hospitalSpecial to the NewsEMC news - You can help support the haemotologyand transplant medicine division of the Ottawa HospitalFoundation through the Ross Cathcart Legacy EndowmentFund while enjoying a visit to a hidden garden oasisin Stittsville.Called a “Multi-Faceted Eden that must be seen tobe believed,” Jo-Anne Ilkiw’s garden features gardens,ponds, waterfalls and even a race track.

OPINIONConnected to your communityEDITORIALWe all have wonThe city recently wrapped up another successfulTamarack Ottawa Race Weekend,an event that attracts more than 40,000participants, not to mention the hordes ofonlookers who filled the streets of downtown on May24 and 25.The statistics alone are staggering.Ottawa Race Weekend is the biggest multi-distancerace event in Canada and is one of only twoInternational Association of Athletics Federationssanctioned events in the country.Over the course of a weekend, approximately$28.7 million is pumped into the Ottawa-Gatineaueconomy -- not exactly chump change. Hotels bookaround 9,000 homes in the capital region.Race organizers are responsible for collecting427,000 discarded drinking cups and handing outroughly 25,000 sponges to sweaty participants.It takes a volunteer work force of 2,000 people tohelp organize and run the races, including those whodistribute water, run the information booth, and provideemergency services. Doctors, nurses, paramedicsand other medical professionals volunteer theirtime, bringing enough equipment to set up a smallhospital to service the event.When you think about it, over the course of theweekend Ottawa absorbs the population of severalsmall cities -- and those people require additional cityservices, such as police, fire services and doctors.Ottawa Race Weekend is a hallmark event that all thecitizens can take pride in, a series of races with internationalrepute, drawing some of the best athletesacross the world.How fitting that the event was kicked off with amarathon torch relay run from the village of Marathonin West Carleton to city hall - a 42-kilometretrek that matches the length of a marathon run.The torch run was suggested by Greece’s ambassadorto Canada, and the mayor of Marathon, Greece,travelled to Ottawa with two ceremonial torchesfor the relay run, giving the race weekend a littleinternational polish. We can also take pride in thetremendous volunteer effort generated by the event.Every year, runners participating in race weekendhave raised more than $1 million, money thatsupports 25 charities affiliated with Ottawa RaceWeekend. Ottawa Race Weekend celebrates what isbest in our city and its citizens. Pheidippides, a Greeksoldier who inspired the concept of a marathon afterhe ran 40 kilometres in 490 BC to report the victoryof Athens over Persia before falling over dead, said itbest: “We have won.”COLUMNExperts all thumbs when it comes to the keyboardSomeone is always trying to invent abetter mousetrap, they used to say.They don’t say it so much any more,now that I think of it. This could meanthat the better mousetrap has already beeninvented, although I doubt it, to judge by themice.The better mousetrap, if it is to be inventedin this day and age, will probably involvelasers and the use of social media, becauseevery new invention does. Perhaps a mousecould be lured to his doom by invitations onMouseBook, there to be confronted by a laserlaunched by a drone triggered by someone’scellphone.Something you probably hadn’t thoughtabout: the invitation on MouseBook would besent by someone typing on his or her thumbs.Which brings us, not very neatly, to today’stopic. Every few years someone tries toreinvent the typewriter keyboard, which iswhat computer keyboards still have. The timehas come again. This time it’s researchers at auniversity in Scotland who say, according tonews article, that the traditional keyboard hasa “suboptimal text entry interface.”This is mad scientist-speak for “you can’ttype very well on it.” Except, of course, thatyou can. Millions, maybe billions, of peopleCHARLESGORDONFunny Townover the years have used the traditional keyboardand found it quite optimal enough, oncethey figured it out.They way they figured it out was bypracticing it, after learning which fingers goon which keys. There were typing classes inschool. The keyboard we all use is known asthe QWERTY system, after the arrangementof the top six letter keys for the left hand.QWERTY developed after it was discoveredthat the seemingly logical system of placingthe keys in alphabetical order did not workwell. If people typed too quickly the keysjammed up. Placing the most-used lettersapart worked better.For years, mad scientists have been tryingto improve on it, arguing, not without logic,that QWERTY is inefficient. But, of course,QWERTY is more efficient than other systemsbecause people have learned how to use it.Watch a fast QWERTY typist work and try toimagine anything going faster.Some systems are inefficient but impossibleto replace. How inefficient is, say, theFrench language, with all those genders? Howinefficient is the English language, with allof those words that sound the same and arespelled differently? And how likely are we, theEnglish- and French-speakers, to sacrifice ourlanguages to efficiency?Mad scientists who study baseball say thatthe way baseball players throw in an overhandmotion is unnatural. The natural way is tothrow a kind of combination of underhandand sidearm. You can see how much effectthis has had on baseball players. Sometimeswe do things just because that’s the way wedo things. And it works for us. As it turnsout, this latest attempt to eradicate QWERTYcoincides roughly with the 20th anniversaryof text messaging. The latest knock againstQWERTY is that it doesn’t work well forpeople who type with their thumbs. The latestsolution is to put the vowels on one side of thekeyboard and the consonants on the other.Now, since there are 21 consonants andonly five vowels, that would make it necessaryto change some consonants into vowels forbalance’s sake. In effect, the inventors of thenew system, called KALQ, have done that,moving some consonants over to where thevowels are (and leaving the Y with the consonants,for some reason). The over-all effect,seen in views of the new keyboard, seems justas random as QWERTY but we are assured itis more efficient.The philosophical question so far remainsunasked: Is it in the best interests of humanityto make it easier for people to type with theirthumbs? Next thing you know, everyone willbe throwing sidearm.Editorial PolicyThe Ottawa East News welcomes letters to theeditor.

The first was at Greenlife Nursery and thesecond was at Magpie Hill Alpacas. Sometimes I receive requests forspecific dates, which is why I did two in May whereas August will likelyhave me unemployed as a Councillor for Hire.Greenlife NurseryOn May 14, I had the opportunity to get my hands a little dirty andwork with Greenlife Nursery. While Greenlife isn’t actually in Rideau-Goulbourn (it’s on Manotick Station Road), its owner, Sarah Johnston,lives in Manotick and they do work in Manotick and across the entirecity. Greenlife is a wholesale nursery that serves the landscapingindustry with its vast selection of plants, shrubs and trees. Greenlifealso specializes in garden installation and lawn maintenance.My day at Greenlife Nursery consisted of a quick tour of the nurseryand an orientation where I got a chance to meet the sales, office andnursery staff. It was then off to Geneva Street in Westboro where Ihelped with a beautiful garden installation at a newly built home. Itwas a good chance to work with the Greenlife landscape crew andlearn more about what goes into an installation. After lunch with theteam, I accompanied Sarah to two upcoming project sites on our wayback to the nursery. I initially met Sarah in late April of 2011 after itwas announced that the City was imposing a water ban in Barrhaven,Manotick and Riverside South. Thankfully, we made it through thattime period quicker than expected. Greenlife has been able to growtheir business and it was a pleasure to see that first hand.Many thanks to Sarah and her team at Greenlife for inviting me tospend a day as an employee at this exciting local business. For moreinformation about Greenlife Nursery, please visit greenlifenursery.ca.Magpie Hill AlpacasOn the morning of Saturday, May 25, I found myself up brightand early and ready to help shear alpacas at Magpie Hill. This wasn’texactly my typical Saturday morning but it was a fun experience andgreat to spend the morning at this local farm on Third Line Road.Owners Aaron & Sarah have amassed a herd of more than 30 alpacassince starting their farm five years ago. They sell a variety of productswith alpaca fleece including duvets, socks, hats, scarves, mitts, yarnand even teddy bears. Magpie Hill products are often available atthe North Gower Farmers Market and the new market at CreeksideGardens in Richmond.My experience was all about shearing the alpacas and packing upthe fleece for processing in these products. I was at the farm longenough to take part in shearing four alpacas and I can tell you thatit was a unique experience to hold an alpaca’s head for over thirtyminutes while it was essentially shaved bald. The incredible thing isthat, with proper shearing, the fleece comes off in one whole pieceand is amazingly soft and warm. I think an owning an alpaca blanketis likely somewhere in my near future. Shearing a herd of 30 alpacastakes approximately four days and requires a volunteer force of around10 or so individuals.I want to thank Aaron and Sarah forletting me take part in this process andspending the morning at their farm. Youcan find out more about Magpie Hill byvisiting magpiehill.ca.

J. Butler whoopened a hotel known as the “Butler House”. Soon afterconstruction of the building was complete his daughter,Lala Butler, was hit by a train after she caught her booton the nearby railway tracks. The Butlers were unable tostay in the area and moved away.That same year, George Green had purchased the buildingand from then on it was known as Green’s Hotel. Greenhad added a pool room on the lower floor.Architecturally, the building boasts ornate woodwork.Especially notable are the wooden gables at the apex of theroof and the decorative porch brackets, with medallionsand stars, surrounding the porch. The building is on theGothic Revival style seen by this decorative wood workand steep pitched gable roof.Green’s Hotel’s close proximity to the rail line made it agreat success. Visitors off the train often stayed at thehotel before continuing on their travels.Please visit my website at www.shadqadri.com to join our weekly community mailing list.If you would like to receive up-to-the-minuteinformation, I encourage you to follow me onTwitter @ShadQadri for frequent communityupdates!22 Stittsville News EMC - Thursday, May 30, 20130530.R0012126298<strong>NEWS</strong>Blood donor clinicSpecial to the NewsEMC news – A community blood donor clinic hostedby Canadian Blood Services is being held on Wednesday,June 5 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the gymnasium atHoly Spirit Catholic Church on Stittsville Main Streetin Stittsville.To book an appointment to give blood at this clinic,visit www.blood.ca or call 1-888-2DONATE (1-888-236-6283).All blood donations at community blood donor clinicsheld by Canadian Blood Services are most appreciatedbecause every minute of every day in Canada, someoneneeds blood and the only way that the blood is availablewhen needed is through the generosity and caringof blood donors who willingly attend community blooddonor clinics to donate blood.It often requires many units of blood to help just onepatient.A car accident victim, for example, can need up to50 units of blood which means 50 blood donations areneeded just to help that one patient.Leukemia patients can need as many as eight units ofblood a week as part of their treatment.Canadian Blood Services, which organizes thesecommunity blood donor clinics, is a national, not-forprofitcharitable organization that manages the bloodsupply in all provinces and territories in Canada exceptfor Quebec.A separate organization, Hema-Quebec, operates inthe province of Quebec.Canadian Blood Services organizes more than 22,000community blood donor clinics across Canada eachyear.

Writing my own happy ending with CHEO’s helpBy Vienna Arbic with Isabelle Mailloux PulkinghornMy name is Vienna and I am nine years old. I’min grade three, play defense on my hockey team,and enjoy doing crafts and writing stories. I lovespending time with my parents Sherry and RichardArbic, and my friends. And I have cancer.My ‘real’ life had to be put on hold while thedoctors at CHEO help me get rid of cancer. Mineis called Germ cell tumor, a very rare form of braincancer - and I want it to go away.If this were a story I came up with, there wouldn’tbe a port-a-cath, operations and chemotherapyinvolved. I wouldn’t need lumbar punctures andI could be home with my parents and my dogsinstead of in the hospital. I’d be playing hockeyand graduating grade three with everyone in myclass. If this were a story I made up, it’d be funnylike the Robert Munsch books that I love so much.But cancer is serious.One day at hockey practice I hurt my head andended up with a concussion. I had all the classicsymptoms, and even after the prescribed rest periodI was not getting better. I was sleeping 18 hours aday, falling asleep at school and again later in theafternoon. I had severe headaches that even the painmedicine would not relieve. I had no short-termmemory and my parents say I just wasn’t myself.So my parents took me to CHEO. Anendocrinologist ordered a CT scan and it detecteda tumor in the center of my brain that was pressingagainst my thyroid, pituitary and hypothalamus Vassilyadi, a CHEO neurosurgeon, installed apressure; that’s when I started to feel much better.The oncologists told us that Germ cell tumors in thebrain are very rare but the good news is that theyusually respond well to radiation; although some doneed a mix of radiation, chemotherapy and surgery.In my case, we quickly started with chemotherapy.Had it not been for my parents’ persistence topush for physicians to investigate further becausethey knew somethingwas wrong with me,had it not been for theconcussion itself andfor the team of CHEOneurologists, endocrinologists and oncologists whocare for me, my story could have had a sad ending.But now, there’s hope.Chemotherapy is not fun - it actually makes mevery sick. I lost my hair and I look very differentbecause of the cortisone, but it is helping me getbetter. It is shrinking the size of my tumor, and thatis great news! Once the last cycle of chemotherapyreduce the tumor even more and hopefully make itgo away forever. I hope we’re done by the end ofthe summer so I can start my hockey season and goback to school. Mom and dad have already foundspecial hockey equipment that will protect my port(where the doctors inject the medications).I can’t wait to get back to my real life. Until then, Iwill take my medicine, continue chemo and rest soIt’s funny because I’ve always wanted to becomea doctor when I grow up. Now, as mom says, I’mgetting an insider’s view and that will help makeme be a great doctor someday. I also want to keepwriting, so maybe I’ll become a doctor-writer. Butone thing is certain: my stories will always havehappy endings. Just like this one will.Retired educator gives back following cancer treatment at TOHBy Tracey Tong cancer appeared in a Barrhaven classroom in 2008 when he developeda sudden and unrelenting pain in his back.“I thought I had twisted it,” he recalled, “It was sopainful I had to leave class.”He visited his family doctor and tests revealed that“It was a shock,” he said. By that time, the cancerhad already spread to his lymph nodes and doctorsthought it might be too advanced for treatment.He was admitted to The Ottawa Hospital chemotherapy sessions in March 2008. It was an amazing experience in that way. Thesupport of our friends and neighbours wasabsolutely phenomenal.”Now recovered, the 76-year-old father andgrandfather has been looking for ways to give back– not just for himself, but because cancer has hit hisfamily hard. His father is a prostate cancer survivor,and years ago, his brother, Carl, succumbed torectal cancer at age 30. Once a week he volunteersat The Ottawa Hospital Cancer Centre as avolunteer trainer, and last year, be began an EMCnewspaper route, donating all of his earnings Hospital Research Institute. He has also signed upto fundraise for The Ottawa Hospital.“When you have cancer, you need to remain cancer can’t spend their lives concentrating on thedisease. With my paper route and volunteering, mymind is not on the cancer, it’s on making it better.”R0012122736

le<strong>NEWS</strong>T-shirt sales for youth.netSydney SteeleSpecial to the NewsEMC news - Youth.net, ayouth mental health promotionprogram, has benefittedthanks to grade 12 art studentsat South Carleton High Schoolin Richmond.The students in the grade12 art class earned $450 foryouth.net by selling t-shirtswith art designs on them. Thissilk screening project beganin mid-April with the t-shirtsales starting at the beginningof May. The students’ originalgoal of raising $300 was surpassedby $150 in the end.“Mental health is talkedabout a lot and we all knowsomeone suffering from amental illness,” says DeannaSchuster, one of the studentsinvolved in this project. Thestudents unanimously agreedto donate the funds earned bythe sale of their t-shirts withart designs to youth.net.“We chose youth.net becauseit means something tous and we’re helping otherkids our age,” she adds.Although the fundraisinggoal of the students was exceeded,making these t-shirtsdid come with challenges.“Getting it right on the firsttry was very difficult, especiallywhen it was going onsomeone else’s t-shirt,” saysLinda Pottle, one of the studentswho participated in thist-shirt art project. “You had tomake it perfect,” she adds.But judging by the fundsearned and the response fromfellow students, these challengeswere overcome.Youth.net has made presentationsat South CarletonHigh School in the past. Itis a bilingual “by youth foryouth” mental health promotionprogram with the objectiveto reach out to youth withthe aim of maintaining goodmental health as well as to developa positive thinking strategyand to decrease the stigmaaround mental illness and itstreatment. Not only are youthheavily involved at youth.netbut also they act as a youthvoice for other organizationsaround the Ottawa area, especiallyin dealing with mentalhealth.Katherine BercusonKawadri, who is the mentalhealth promotion coordinatorat youth.net, feels that themoney raised by the SouthCarleton students would bebest to go to youth.net’s “pensand paints” program since thestudents are in an art class.This “pens and paints” programis one of the initiativesat youth.net which was developedby youth themselves. Itis an art-based program designedto help youth cope withstress.Every week during this“pens and paints” program,which can run from 8 to 12weeks in duration dependingon when it is run, a group of10 to 12 youth gather at youth.net headquarters and produceart based on different discussiontopics. Topics could beConnected to your communityabout relationships, body image,self esteem or some othersimilar subject.Youth.net always involvesyouth in its activities, all theway from hiring staff to beingat programs.“Whenever we hire newstaff, we have a young personin the room just becausethe staff that we hire will bethe ones out there workingwith young people and connectingwith them,” says Ms.Kawadri.“During the interview, if theyouth doesn’t feel any connection,what are the chances thatthey will connect with youngpeople out in the community,”she adds.To donate to youth.net orto find out more informationabout the organization, visitthe youth.net website at http://www.youthnet.on.ca/ or call613-738-3915.SYDNEY STEELEThree South Carleton High School students who are holding up t-shirts with art designson them thanks to a project undertaken by grade 12 art students to raise funds for youth.net are, from left, Linda Pottle, Samantha Moberg and Sabrina Calogeracos.ON JUNE 1, 2013, GO THE DISTANCE INTHE FIGHT FOR CANCER SURVIVORSHIPIN EASTERN ONTARIOTHE BIGGEST ONE-DAY WALK IN OTTAWA– 28 KM FROM THE QUEENSWAY CARLETON HOSPITALTO THE RICHARD & ANNETTE BLOCH CANCER SURVIVORS PARKRegister today: www.ottawacancer.caTHANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORSBENEFITINGtheR0012078221Please join us for a special evening ofWine & Pints Food Pairing EventRestaurant International at Algonquin CollegeWednesday, June 19th, 2013, From 6:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.Located at 1385 Woodroffe AvenueFeaturing a four course gourmet dinneraccompanied by Wine & Beer TastingAll proceeds support theresidents at St. Patrick’s Home$65.00 per ticketLimited seating availablePurchase your tickets by calling 613-260-2738 or foundation@stpats.caEntertainment, Silent AuctionR0012122738Stittsville News EMC - Thursday, May 30, 2013 41

SENIORSMARY COOKMary Cook’s MemoriesConnected to your communityUncle Lou’s visits to farm at Northcotewere very much like Christmas for usEMC lifestyle - Very important, was myUncle Lou.Didn’t he just get an award for working onthe marble in the Waldorf Astoria in the big cityof New York? We even had a chip to prove it.Uncle Lou it was, who at least once a year descendedon our farm out in Northcote to bringus unspeakable joy. When he came it was likeChristmas all over again.Uncle Lou often came without telling Motherin advance. But when he came unannounced,always on a Saturday, we knew he was on hisway before he hit the yard. He would startblowing the horn of his big black Buick whenhe turned into our long lane, and never let upuntil he came to a screeching halt at the backdoor.He always wore grey flannel trousers,pressed knife-sharp, and flannel shirts open atthe neck. Uncle Lou was tall, and as my sisterAudrey once said, he even looked important!We five children never took our eyes off theback seat of the big Buick. We knew for a fact,that inside his big brown cow-hide suitcaseswould be presents beyond belief. Always,there were yards of silk for Mother.And a new purse. Big. With gold clasps, andlong handles. And we had no idea how he knewour sizes, but each of us would get a new pieceof clothing, and everything always fit like it hadbeen made for us!Uncle Lou would first stop at a grocery storein Renfrew, and there would be grapes andbananas, and real ham, not like we had in thesmoke house, but big slices...thick...just rightfor sandwiches.It would take ages to unpack the Buick. Andwhen it had been emptied, the brothers wouldcarry the cow-hide suitcases up to the roommy sister Audrey and I shared, and Uncle Louwould take over the bed, and we would movedown to the creton couch in the kitchen.Mother’s cheeks would be red as tomatoes,and Father, who could never understand whatall the fuss was about, would treat Uncle Loulike any other visitor who came out to the farmin Northcote.That meant he would still slurp his tea out ofhis saucer, and sit with his feet on the oven doorat night reading the Ottawa Farm Journal or theFamily Herald and Weekly Star.As the evenings wore on, Mother and UncleLou would talk about New York and the manyyears Mother lived there. And he would tellher about the changes...how the elevated trainswent for miles and miles now, and how a placecalled the Bronx was the place to live. AndMother would listen wide-eyed and ask questions,and the talk would go on and on.Uncle Lou had a wonderful singing voice,and without fail, every night Mother would getout her harmonica and he would sing and sheplayed.And then she would set the mouth-organaside and they would sing in harmony...songsthey both knew, and my very favourite was onecalled, “I had a dream dear” ... I thought it wasvery sad, but beautiful. And sometimes I wouldsee a tear roll down Mother’s cheek when thesong was over.And I knew she would be rememberingthose happy years when she lived in the cityshe loved before she left for the backwoods ofRenfrew County.And while Uncle Lou was visiting us wewould have trips into Renfrew to the pictureshow ... at least twice during his stay.And we would have cracker jacks to munchon during the movie, and always we stoppedfor ice cream on the way home at Briscoe’sGeneral Store, which I was grateful stayedopen every night until at least 11 p.m.!Too soon it would be time for Uncle Lou topack up and head back to New York City.Whole quarters would be thrust into each ofour hands, and I knew he would give Mother afew bills too which she would immediately putin the blue sugar bowl with her egg money.R0012123286Are We Aging Well?Everett would swing wide the gate going outto the lane, and with the horn going full blast,Uncle Lou would spin the tires on the Buickand he was gone.And when it came time for our silent prayerseach of us were expected to say before we leftMother’s knee, I would pray that Uncle Louwould return soon.Join Dr. Samir Sinha, an internationally respected physicianand influential advocate for the health care needs of seniors,as he shares his recommendations for a Seniors Strategy forOntario at the Alzheimer Society’s Annual General Meeting.Guests will also hear from Mike Morissette, a person livingwith dementia.Date/Time: June 13, 2013 from 8:30 a.m. – 11 a.m. (Open to the general public.)Location: Hampton Inn Ottawa & Conference CentreCost: $25/person includes refreshmentsPre-registration is required.Call 613-523-4004 or register online at www.alzheimer.ca/ottawaStittsville News EMC - Thursday, May 30, 2013 49R0012127151
