Hermonie was the postmistress at Caldwell for 20 years. Following her retirement she wrote a weekly column in the Shawville Equity for 61 years. Subscribers near and far looked forward to reading her weekly column. Hermonie kept her readers abreast with all the local news. We were reminded of her priorities – family and supporting community. She wore her “Bristol Blue’ on her sleeve and in her heart. In addition to writing her weekly column, she found time to enjoy her favourite pastime-euchre six nights a week. In 2002, she received the Queens Medal of Honour for her service to the community. Hermonie will be missed but not forgotten. She will be remembered for her wit, sense of humour, courage and resourcefulness. Special thanks to the nursing staff and volunteers at Shawville Hospital, as well as the staff of the Dialysis Unit at the Hull hospital and Transportaction which got her safely there, several times each week.
