Lost & Found Pets

Yesterday espokes was able to reunite another missing pet with its owner by matching a missing and found email received simultaneously.  A most rewarding part of being an espokes volunteer.  

There is also a Pet Registry on this site, where your pet can be listed as a resource.

Another helpful way is to take a picture of your pet(s) along with all the information for contact and send it along to thetisblog.  If someone finds your pet they can contact you immediately, lessening the distress of a missing pet.

Send photos to editor@thetisblog.net for posting on both thetisblog.net and the Thetis Island Community Posts FB page.

Eryn Sharpe Trio ~ Forbes Hall Dec. 30th ~ 7:30PM

This Friday, 30th December 7:30 pm  Eryn Sharpe Trio from Victoria.  Come and enjoy them playing  a variety of Jazz,  R&B, both New and Old right here, at the Community Centre !

Lead singer Eryn Sharpe, along with Guitarist Leon Nagasaki, and Upright Bassist Nick Mintenko have all spent time at music school, and started off playing Jazz together two years ago. What started off as a nostalgic obsession with their parents' (and even grandparents') music, turned into regular gigs, friendship, original songwriting, crowdfunding, and now an album, and a 5 piece band- Sharpe5. That said, the trio is still going strong and gigging every other Monday at Pagliacci's.

$ 15.00 at the door.  16 years and under free.  Refreshments by donation.  All welcome.

Here is an introduction video,  www.sharpesounds.ca/music-in-the-moment .

John Stadt

My dear husband John went peacefully to be with his Lord very early Christmas morning (what a wonderful gift for him!).  Both John and I are thankful that his Lewy Body Dementia was not prolonged in the end.  John loved Thetis and we both appreciated the love, support and encouragement we received in this wonderful community during his illness

A celebration of his life will be held in January.

Warmly
Donna

Merry Christmas!
