Wednesday, November 29, 2006 · Page 20 Bantam A Essex Source for Sports The Source for Sports Bantam A hockey team was looking for some revenge on Friday night in LaSalle against the LaSalle Sabres after falling to them six days earlier in Essex. Halfway through the first period on a powerplay Colin Delaet opened the scoring getting our first goal with assists going to Blain Little and Tony Spidalieri. In a match filled with penalties LaSalle would be unable to contain this line throughout the game and they would go on to score all four of our goals. With time running out and on a 5-3 powerplay to end the first, Tony scored to put us ahead to stay with assists from Colin and defenseman Tyler Raymont. Scoring his second goal of the game on a setup by Captain Alex Thomson, Colin kept the ball rolling to make it 3-1. The Sabres tried to keep up making it 3-2, before Tony sealed the win with his second, set up by Colin for his fourth point of the game. This was a good 4-2 win against a normally tough team in LaSalle. Keep going guys. Saturday night the Bantam A squad faced Amherstburg. Essex was looking for revenge as Amherstburg took the win the first time around. Feeling strong from the night before the boys were up for the challenge. Their opponents knocked them around the first game but this time the boys were unfazed. The first period ended without a score. Essex scored two in the second. Colin Delaet was set up by Tony Spidalieri. The second was netted by Lyle Little with help from Ryan Morris and Ty Queen. Essex popped in two more in the third by Ty and Tony. Ryan and Lyle got the assists. Amherstburg was never able to respond and Evan Howson came away with the shutout 4-0 and only three penalties all game. Great weekend boys! SAY `CHEESE' Jim Kennedy of the Leamington and Mersea Historical Society displays a remarkable piece of early photographic history a wet plate camera at the Essex County Associated Growers Trade Show at the Leamington Kinsmen Auditorium last week. The camera is believed to have been purchased originally by local photographer Harry Dunn from the E & H Anthony Company of New York around the turn of the century. It came into the possession of his successors, Bill and Shirley Masters, around the mid 20th century. They, in turn, donated the wet plate camera to the historical society. Jim Kennedy and Bob McCracken, LMHS volunteers, answered hundreds of questions about the workings of the antique camera over the twoday show. At one time, the City of Windsor traffic department used a similar camera to create signs. The memories still remain Christine Byrne dedicates herself to helping people get through life's challenges. Her private practice specializes in the areas of mental health, especially personal crises such as the death of a loved one, parenting concerns, depression, anxiety and trauma. Byrne spoke and sang last week at the Essex Railway Station at a seminar to assist people in dealing with the death of loved ones organized by the Kennedy Funeral Home. Byrne says the death of a family member or close friend leaves us with a relationship of memories only. Memories are what we have to live with and to go on with. When a death occurs, their presence is missed. The solution, is to take each day one at a time, and to celebrate the presence of the people we care about who are still with us. Christmas, an especially hard time for those who have lost loved ones, should be handled to suit individual needs. "Give yourself permission to grieve. Christmas is just one day. How it comes and goes is up to you," Byrne said. Another tip on getting through the holidays is to show gestures of kindness to other people. "Your presence to the ones you love is the one present we can truly give away at Christmas," she said. Christine Byrne operates Living Resources and has practiced as a therapist and speaker since 1981. She can be reached at cbyrne@livingresources.ca or by phone 519-979-5929.
