Poetry on the Poles - September 14.. missing..
"Dear X" story.. is still missing after four years... which is a pity....
"Poetry on Poles" on Main Street is a series of plaques from September 1 to September 30 showing passages authored by Douglas Lochhead 1922-2011Douglas Lochhead: Librarian was the poet laureate of Sackville - The Globe and Mail

Seems unfortunate to me that the petty town hall staffers would rather block me on their Twitter than act in good faith and take action on a request to replace this missing plaque which was lost after a storm took out a power pole that was later removed along with the attached plaque and lost from the landscape... Bruce Phinney Town Councillor advised he would look into it but nothing has been done.. what do these elected people actually do for their paycheques? Seems like Bruce is a little wrapped up in the local fire hall drama... more here:
weird priorities.. as always..

"Open Sky Co-operative has over 12 years of experience supporting young adults experiencing barriers due to autism, learning disabilities, and mental health challenges. We offer a unique program building social and practical skills through the daily and seasonal rhythms of farm life and community connections.
Open Sky is a beautiful, welcoming place to be. On an 11-acre farm in newly formed municipality of Tantramar (Sackville) NB, we have a farmhouse, barn, "maker space", greenhouses and many acres of lawns, gardens and pasture. Day programs, training and activities are provided for adults who live locally to improve their skills and well-being, as well as learn and do organic farming and gardening. We have helped participants launch co-operatives and businesses, that provide employment for people who face barriers. There are also rooms in the farmhouse that can provide a transitional residence for those ready to try independent living.
An exciting development is the addition of retail greenhouse in 2023, growing and selling bedding plants and providing new training and employment opportunities for neurodivergent individuals locally.
Everyone can benefit from living and working in a healthy environment, with gentle relationships and within an understanding and supportive community. Extra skilled support is invaluable, especially for those already disempowered by challenging life experiences.
Open Sky has expertise for adults with autism spectrum disorder, providing unique and effective skills programming, tailored to meet needs identified by a functional skills assessment. Open Sky is the only such service provider in the Maritimes.
The activities of Open Sky Co-operative are guided by the following charitable objects:
- To establish, operate and maintain a residential, educational and therapeutic facility for persons with social, developmental or mental health challenges, such as Autism Spectrum Disorders or Asperger Syndrome.
- To provide life-skills development programmes, vocational training, mentorship, and recreational and social activities to persons with social, developmental or mental health challenges.
- To educate and increase the understanding of the public about the causes and effects of, and treatments for, social, developmental or mental health challenges, on the barriers that prevent the participation of persons with disabilities in their community life and on the support services available to persons suffering from such disabilities.
- To undertake activities ancillary and incidental to the above-mentioned charitable purposes."

What Will John Lafford's Newest Apartment Building Be Called?

Currently there is no indication of the name to be given for their newest development that is coming along at a rapid pace.. note that the sixth floor is now in place with the project's concrete builders.
This is an impressive amount of "industry" on display in the heart of downtown - its a first on the landscape with its iconic massive crane.
Perhaps the project's name will be
"The Heidi" in honour of John Lafford's late wife and the loving mother of his four daughters.

Shawn Dale Mitton - Times of Remembrance - Wednesday March 27, 2024 @ 2 - 4 pm Jones Funeral Home
We are a townfolks in mourning over this senseless passing of one of our own. Rest in peace Shawn.
1979 - 2024
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Shawn Dale Mitton, age 44, of Sackville, NB, at the Moncton Hospital on Saturday, March 16, 2024.
Born in Sackville, he was a son of Brian and Shelley (Thomas) Mitton.
Shawn was a family man who loved spending time with his sons. Whatever his sons were involved in, he was in 100%, announcing at their hockey games, outings in the woods, or enjoying an impromptu meal over a campfire. He looked forward to any activity that took him outside; playing with his animals, taking long hikes, dirt biking, or fishing just to name a few. He enjoyed sports and loved playing baseball. He knew how to make those around him feel good and make every event special.
Always ambitious, Shawn recently had followed his dreams and started his own business. The community welcomed his achievement with open arms and in only a short time he was already flourishing. Shawn was excited to take on this endeavor and everyone who knew him was extremely supportive and proud of his accomplishment.
In addition to his parents, he will be dearly missed by his life partner Kayla Estabrooks, Sackville; sons Dylan Mitton, Samuel Mitton, Greyson Estabrooks and Braden O'Watch; grandmother Dorothy Thomas, Sackville; countless aunts, uncles, cousins, and of course friends.
Arrangements are under the care and supervision of Jones Funeral Home, 70 Bridge Street, Sackville, NB (506-364-1300) where Times of Remembrance will be held on Wednesday, March 27, 2024 from 2 to 4 pm and 6 to 8 pm. Burial will take place in the Sackville Cemetery at a later date.
For those who wish to do so, memorials may be sent to a charity of your choice.
Sharing of memories and condolences may be sent to the family by visiting the online memorial at www.jonesfuneralhome.ca or through the Jones Funeral Home Facebook"
