• Notes

  G. Alvin Page Passes - A lifelong resident of Ayr and district, George Alvin Page, Hall Street, Ayr, passed away Saturday in St. Mary's Hospital, Kitchener. He was in his 73rd year. Born on the 10th concession of Blenheim Township, Mr. Page was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Page. He received his education at the Lower Tenth, Perry's Corners and Ayr schools. Mr. Page worked for many years at the Hecker H-O plant, just north of Ayr, following which he was employed by Sheldon's in Galt, retiring about four years ago. An avid sportman, he was a life member of both the Ayr Curling Club and Ayr Lawn Bowling Club. At the time of his death he had the distinction of being, the oldest active member of the Lawn Bowling Club. The highlight of Mr. Page's curling career came in 1957. A rink comprising John T. Hall, Hector Kyle, J. D. Patterson and Mr. Page was selected to participate in the large week-long 150th anniversary celebrations at the Royal Montreal Curling Club. Clubs from across Canada which had. celebrated their one hundredth anniversary were represented at this memorable event. Another big day in Mr. Page's curling career came two years ago when he was honoured by fellow members of the Ayr Curling Club, throwing the first stone in opening ceremonies at the newly built club in Ayr. Mr. Page was a 50 year member of Dolman Lodge, I.O.O.F. 174, Ayr. A 50-year jewel will be presented posthumously at a Lodge ceremony in Knox Church Fellowship Hall this Thursday evening. Surviving besides his wife, the former Hilda Mitchell, are two sons, John and Donald of Ayr; one daughter, Mrs. Ross (Molly) Chapman, Galt; two brothers, William and Robert, both of Ayr; also five grandchildren.
