Summer is going fast but hasn't it been fun to attend the summer weddings - mostly outdoors?

Tobi-Kay Farrell and Dave Droppert were married on the 15th (Tobi is Joyce and John Farrell's daughter and Dave is Corrie and Peter Sneider's nephew); Sarah Courtney and Daniel Black were married the 21st (Sarah is Bernice and Carmon's daughter); and John MacKay and Brittany Campbell-MacKay's celebration was held Saturday evening at Debb and Brian MacKay's.  

Also celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary on Saturday evening were Heather and Sam Finnie at their farm on the 10th. Many from the area enjoyed the various celebrations. Congratulations to all of you.
 
Congratulations, too, to the folks celebrating their August birthdays - Sandy Gander, Merle Rhody and later this month Isabel Brook.
 
Cheryl and Carmon Bridge were visited recently by her sister, Dianne and Ron Ellis of Auburn.
 
Karen and Largaret McInnes and Linda McInnes visited with Louie Misch in Walkerton.

Our sympathy goes to the families of the late Marion Hartwick, Jim Elliott, and Barry McTeer. They will be missed greatly.
 
Some of the Ripley 4-H folks participated in the All Breeds Dairy Invitational Show at the Hanover Fair on Sunday.

We are thankful  that the Paisley Heritage Weekend went well with great crowds each day.
