A lesson remembered

I am truly sorry for your loss. This week I was sharing a story of how Les Bishop had given me a stick of gum at his auction in Boyle. I was a very young girl (4-6?) at the time and he told me that if I could save it until the next week's auction he would give me a whole pack. He kept his word and it has stuck with me all of these years. I am now 59 and was telling a couple of customers in my store in Boyle about this story and the auctioneer that was here before Pete Kowalchuk and how he had impressed me with the value of saving. I decided to "google" his name and was very saddened to hear of his passing. He was a good man. My late father, Gordon Walker, was a regular at his auction and even worked for him. My mother MaryAnn Walker sends her condolences too.
