Eighty purple ribbons and 51 photographs of lost loved ones are now hanging from trees, telephone poles and signs along Main Street and Beach Road. Jody Wasserman hung the tributes on July 31 with the help of her mother, Cindy Zeller, aunt Melody Zeller and friend Crystal McMahon.

Wasserman’s brother, Josh Zeller, passed away in 2019 from an accidental overdose. He was a loyal friend and a beloved brother and son, Wasserman said. “Even in his hardest times when he didn’t have much, if he had something that he could help you with, he would help you.” Josh, 36, battled substance abuse disorder since his early twenties. In the fi nal year of his life, he was desperate for help and seeking professional medical intervention.

But there are many groups of fl ies that are benefi cial. Some are good pollinators, others are valuable predators, and there are some that are benefi cial as both. One such group of fl ies is the hover fl ies. One challenge, though, might be even identifying them as a fl y. In this month’s Incredible Creatures, we will explore hover fl ies, masterful mimics that are bountifully benefi cial.

Right now, everything is conceptual, said town CAO Wally Melnyk. The town provided a breakdown of potential costs to build and operate the facility. For the sake of transpar- ency, they intentionally placed their estimate on the higher end, Melnyk said. The fi gures account for a scenario in which there is little money fundraised or earned from provincial grants. On the high end, the centre could cost between $3.5 million and $5 mil- lion to construct and would require net borrowing of $4.5 million to be paid back over (at least) 20 years.
