Notes from about 2000: Elmer always enjyed playing hockey and actually got the opportunity to play as a professional. As WWII broke out, Elmerserved in the Royal Canadian Air Force. Upon return fromthe War, Elmerresumed playing hockey. In those days if you came to a small town to play hockey for them, the townspeople found you a job. Elmer eventually came to Gravenhurst, Ontario, to play for the Indians. While in Gravenhurst, he met Ruth, his future wife. Later Elmer went to play for the Powassan Hawks and was offered a job with Ontario Hydro. They owned a home in town as well as a cottageon the east end of Lake Nipissing, just outside of Callander, Ontario. Even after Elmer no longer played hockey,they stayed there in their littlepiece of heaven. They finally converted their cottage to a permanent home and sold their place in town. Ruthstill lives in their big place with the huge yard.
