brooks carl jensen michelle richardson rols parham and teresa tapscott editors mall praises integrity dear editor v id like to take a few moments of your readers time to commend the in tegrity and ethics of local businessman lloyd britton of lloyd britton auto sales about seven months ago i purchased a 1982 automobile from him and at the time he said if anything major went wrong he would split the cost with me well something did go wrong and lloyd stood behind his word i feel lloyd exemplifies those positive ethics you see in this town and should be included with fine businessmen such as grant larmer of canadian tire graydon card of cards hardware and bruce staplcy of bruce county pine this is one of the many reasons why my wife our sons and i enjoy living in stouffville sincerely jim
