The commemoration marked a commitment by the community not to forget this man or the thousands of Canadians who suffer from Alzheimer's Disease and dementia. Ian Dutton, a former chartered chemist and sales representative, was known for walking the trail every night with his dogs and for scattering seeds collected from plants and owers in his own garden as he went. Friends and family say the fruits of his labour can be seen to this day in the thriving patches of forget-me-nots that adorn the trail. see Ian on p.3 There's nothing that announces summer's arrival more than Oakville's annual Ribfest and the nger-licking scrumptious event is back for a fourth consecutive year, June 26-28, at Sheridan College. Organized by the Rotary Club of Oakville, The Cooperators Oakville Family Ribfest features nine ribbers, Ribfest chair Trish Peden says.
