Harold Robertson PICTURES IN GLASS

Fascinating Personality !

Harold Robertson, Selkirk, ON
After forty-one years at the same company, Harold retired in May, 2004.  By January, 2005, he had begun creating stained-glass artwork.  Now he has achieved a myriad of styles and shapes that require meticulous craftsmanship.  He replaces treasured pieces that have suffered damage.  He sees when someone has a favourite subject or pet and goes to work to create the perfect piece.  Many of his stained-glass artworks go to newly married couples or someone celebrating a special event~ sometimes a memorial in honour of someone.

The Neat Little Bookshop is pleased to host an afternoon with Harold on Thursday, June 20 at 1:00 p.m.  Harold has kindly agreed to bring along some materials, tools and his artist's light to demonstrate how he achieves some of his artwork.

DANGER
DUE TO
DEMOLITION


Royal Canadian Legion Branch 159, Hwy 3


Decades of memories came down yesterday. The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 159 built their new facility some years ago with plans to demolish the old.  Legion members will tell us the chronology of events.  Yesterday a small group of neighbours and friends watched as the old building came down.
