There have been three deaths in our little community over the past couple of days. First Clem Joe Sr. died on Saturday evening. John Benoit (known to many as John Birch) died on Sunday morning.
Now a third person, who had gone missing yesterday morning in a snowstorm, was found floating in the tickle this morning. He had been given a floater suit for Christmas. It did its job. Unfortunately, the time that he had spent in the water proved to be too much. So now our community of 750 people has to say goodbye to a third member who was only in his mid-thirties — Billy John.
Our thoughts and best wishes go out to everybody who is hurting.
