    FINED $25 FOR FAILING TO STOP AFTER ACCIDENT

    In the Kitchener police court on Thursday last, Ruddy Litwiller, Glasgow Lane, Kitchener, was found guilty of failing to return to the scene of an accident after hitting a horse and buggy and was fined $25 and costs or 19 days in jail. Although Litwiller produced eight witnesses to support his claim that he was not out of the house at the time of the accident, the prosecution produced a bill for gasoline which Litwiller purchased at a local gasoline station, the clerk at the gasoline station swearing that he sold several gallons of gas to Litwiller on the night of the accident. Litwiller claimed to have bought no gas on Dec. 24th but on Dec. 23rd, the night before the accident. The magistrate said he believed the witnesses who gave evidence on behalf of Litwiller were mistaken and he accordingly imposed the above fine, the witnesses also disagreeing in their evidence to some extent. Litwiller asked for an adjournment until Wednesday as he wished to enter an appeal, which was granted.

    Obituary of Wilbur Alexander Lichty

    Peacefully passed away on Sunday, July 18, 2021 at John Noble Home, Brantford, at the age of 95.

    Wil was born on September 21, 1925 and was the beloved husband and best friend of Verlin Irene (Cope) Lichty. They were married September 6, 1950, and lived near or in Elmira until September 2018, when they moved to Waterloo.

    Loving and wonderful father to Lisa Anne Lichty Klaehn. Proud Gramp to Donald Scott Klaehn, his wife Loralie and their twin daughters Evie Marie and Madison Esme; Nathan Thomas Klaehn, his wife Samantha Cavanagh and their daughter Amelia (Millie) Jayne Cavanagh; and granddaughter Alissa Leigh Klaehn.

    Wil joined the Royal Canadian Engineers at the age of 16. He was a dispatch rider during WWII riding a Harley in England and a 'Snortin' Norton' in Europe. He was wounded in Elbeuf, France near Boulogne, and spent a year in Purley, England for rehabilitation, exploring small English towns with train trips on leaves, making friends everywhere.

    Wil was the co-owner of Elmira Insurance Agency Limited, having joined with Fred C. Forwell in 1948, and sold Elmira Insurance Brokers in 2012. He took on leadership positions in the Junior Chamber of Commerce (Jaycees), locally, provincially, and nationally. Wil was involved with the Court of Revision - Waterloo County, was President of Waterloo Insurance Brokers, and Director of Ontario Insurance Brokers. He was a member of the Elmira Town Council for two years, and treasurer of the Elmira Fairboard Association for 22 years (later Elmira Raceway). He was active in the Lions Club and Masonic Lodge, and a member of the Drumbo hunt club.

    He enjoyed many fishing trips, and travelled the world with Verlin, returning to England several times. He took pride in their home in the country, always busy to keep it in top shape. He loved riding his motorcycle and trail rides on his snowmobile - and had endless patience to dig young snowmobile riders out of drifts when they got stuck, and to shovel the pond for skating. He was a gracious host, had a quick wit and enjoyment of wordplay, an avid reader, taught Lisa and the grandkids to play cribbage (and sometimes they would win). He enjoyed theatre and the KW Symphony, movies, and playing bridge with friends.

    He is survived by his sisters-in-law Donna June Cope Lindsay and Emma Buehler Cope Dundon. Also survived by Emma's children, Warren Cope, his wife Stacy and their children Melina, Colin, Shelby and Hayley; Stewart Douglas Cope and his wife Brenda and their children Melissa (Cody McDonald) and Clifton Andrew; Donna Louise Cope Herteis and Jeff Herteis and their children Valerie, Rachel and Steven.

    Predeceased by parents Harvey Lichty (1927) and Salome Roth Lichty (1971) and by his sisters Beatrice (1938), and Edith Turnball (Matthew) (2011); and brothers-in-law Clifton Reginald Cope (1983) and Rowland Angus Lindsay (1996).

    At Wil's request, cremation has taken place. In lieu of flowers, donations to Doctors Without Borders or Mennonite Central Committee would be appreciated as expressions of sympathy, and can be made through the Dreisinger Funeral Home, Elmira.

    Milo Shantz

    From The Waterloo Way Wiki

    Milo Shantz was born in the New Hamburg, Ontario in 1932 and was raised by hard working, industrious Mennonite parents. From a young age, Shantz showed a entrepreneurial spirit and willingness to take risk. At the age of 13, he started buying and selling pigs, and at the age of 21, along with a partner, bought 500 commercial meat turkeys. By 1958, he had made it a family business with his father and brother, and involved employees as shareholders. Shantz' early involvement in the poultry business led to the development of Hybrid Turkeys in 1970, with which he was actively involved with until 1981 when the company was sold to British Petroleum. Today, the company is one of the two major turkey breeding companies worldwide with 14 farms, two hatcheries and affiliate operations in Brazil, Hungary and Ireland.

    In 1975, Shantz had a local investment in Hoffman Meats Ltd., buying the Hog Processing company along with Don Martin and Mark Hoffman as partners. The company was later sold to Gainers Inc., a meat packing conglomerate.

    Soon in 1981, Milo Shantz founded the Mercedes Corporation, while the village was in somewhat of a state of disrepair. Shantz' interest in the village of St. Jacobs began with the opening of the Stone Crock Restaurant which was a former Zehrs. In the following twenty-five years, Shantz' involvements, through various companies and shareholder groups, have been extensive. The most notable of these include the St. Jacobs and Waterloo Farmers' Markets, the Ontario Livestock Exchange, the St. Jacobs Outlet Mall, a number of rental properties, and six long-term care homes for the elderly. Shantz vision has put St. Jacobs on the international tourism map. People were streaming to St. Jacobs to learn about Old Order Mennonites and to learn more about their beliefs and theology. The more visitors who flocked in, the more opportunity there clearly was for re-adaptive use of old structures, redevelopment, and turning St. Jacobs into a countryside destination. By 1988, Mercedes Corporation and Stone Crock Inc., owned 17 of the 36 commercial properties in or around St. Jacobs. Mercedes with real estate assets of $27 million, had revenues of $16.4 million.

    Then in 1997 Mercedes was sold to Consolidated Properties, a publicly-traded company on the Toronto Stock Exchange for $11.5 million. Milo Shantz served as chairman of Consolidated on the board of Directors to have control over the operations of Mercedes.
    In 2001, Mercedes Holdings Corp., a newly-incorporated business owned by a group of investors that includes Milo Shantz and his brother Ross Shantz bought Mercedes Corporation for $10.2 million dollars and return the company to private ownership. Mercedes states this will put it in a better position to develop its tourist properties and nursing home business.

    Milo Shantz passes away

    ST JACOBS - The man credited with converting St Jacobs into an international tourist destination has passed away.
    Milo Shantz,76, who along with his brother Ross, spearheaded a number of developments in the village, was born in the New Hamburg area in 1932. The brothers worked together for decades, notably with Hybrid Turkeys, a Kitchener-based turkey breeding business that became a world leader by the time it was sold to Hendrix Genetics in 1981.

    Shantz opened the Stone Crock restaurant in downtown St Jacobs in 1975 at a time when the area was in severe economic decline. Many credit that restaurant for starting a rebirth in St Jacobs.

    Shantz started Mercedes Corp. in 1981. That company drove development in St. Jacobs and eventually acquired a number of properties in the area. It owns the St. Jacobs Farmers Market, Waterloo Farmers Market, Ontario Livestock Exchange, St. Jacobs Factory Outlet Mall, St. Jacobs stockyards as well as seven other rental and retail properties in the village. Mercedes also owns retirement homes in the region as well as several other cities.

    An official with Mercedes confirmed that Shantz passed away, but did not offer any other details. Shantz had been battling cancer for some time, his friends said.

    Although best known for his business successes, Shantz was also a large supporter of Habitat for Humanity. He played a key role in establishing the charity in Canada and was instrumental in arranging a visit where former U.S. President Jimmy Carter came to Canada to promote a local Habitat project in 1993.

    Shantz, raised by Mennonite parents, was also known for his belief in sharing his successes with employees. He offered to allow his employees to buy into his businesses. He often said his goal in creating a destination in St. Jacobs was not meant to exploit area old order Mennonites but to create an attraction that promoted local artisans and merchants.
