Maurice Watson Quinton, my Dad, had his 90th birthday on April 19, 2004. David and Gail had the family over to celebrate the occasion. Kate and I were in Perth, WA, Australia at the time and phoned in at 2:00am our time (2:00pm their time) to send our greetings.

The photo at left shows Dad, proudly surrounded by some of his many grandchildren: Natalia Roy to his right (middle daughter of Larry and Lori), Alison Quinton to his left (middle child of David & Gail). At the back: Leslie Quinton (eldest of Larry & Lori), Noelle Hunt (daughter of Ellen & Wayne), Darren Quinton behind (youngest child of Dave & Gail), Ken Edmonstone (eldest of Ellen & Wayne), and Bridget Levac (eldest of Dave and Gail).

Hilda Puddicombe, Dad's sister, attended. She would have been 94 (born 1910) at the party. Dad's girlfriend June was there as well. They were a pretty serious couple and had some fun together.

At the time Dad was still driving and lived independently in Owen Sound.
