Fulford News
Lassie, move over! Jasmine of Wright’s General Store (Fulford’s unofficial mascot dog) has played a role on a French-language TV program. “Jazz” is usually laid-back, merely wagging or thumping her tail, but now is a performer.
Fulford Community Club organized its first neighbourhood picnic and served delicious corn on the cob. Several persons took a river walk on the central branch of the Yamaska River, alongside the hall. This year marks the 55th anniversary of Fulford Hall.
Congratulations to Cassandra Pegg, newly graduated from MVHS.
Best wishes to Bob Brunton and Sandra Stewart on their Golden Wedding Anniversary.
In the middle of the night, heavy rains caused a wash-out on Fulford Road at Duquette Road, and two vehicles fell into the crevasse: Shawn Turcotte of Fulford and Mrs. Claire Lavigne of Knowlton, both drivers, are wished a speedy recovery.
The remnants of an old farmhouse have been demolished and a new house built nearby. The old house had an interesting history, recounted by local folk, including its sudden change from two-storey to one level!
Submitted by Margaret Fordham It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our father Marc Clerk at Brome-missisquoi-perkins Hospital in Cowansville on August 31, 2018 at the age of 95.
He was predeceased by his wife Gabrielle Brunet and by his brothers Michel and Stephan (late Thérèse Saintjacques). He leaves to mourn his daughter Nathalie and his son David (Carmen Picard) and his three grandchildren: Maxime (Isabelle Dupel), Olivier and Julien (Marie-laurence Lussier) Clerk-lamalice and a great-grandchild, Édouard. On the Clerk family side, he leaves to mourn his brother Pierre (Linda Mandel) and his sister-in-law Monique Martineau. On the Brunet family side, he leaves to mourn his sister-in-law Suzanne (late Raymond d’aoust) and his brothers-inlaw Gilles (Lise Paquet) and Paul (Louise Gagné). He also leaves to mourn his many friends at Résidence Bromont.
For many years he was active across Canada in the window industry. He was also a consultant for the National Research Council. A long-time resident of the Sutton-knowlton region, he actively took part in the municipal, agricultural and cultural life of the area.
According to his wishes, an intimate family ceremony will be held. The burial of the ashes will be held in Gatineau at a later date. Arrangements entrusted to the Brome-missisquoi Funeral Complex, 402, rue de la Rivière, Cowansville, 450.266.6061
