By Kristen Calis [email protected]

PICKERING — When Lucy and her family moved from Toronto to Pickering a couple of years ago, she thought they’d lead a safe, quiet lifestyle. But her 15-year-old son, Chris (not his real name), has been robbed twice in just more than two months. “I’m scared for him,” Lucy said in an inter- view. “I’m frightened and I don’t like to feel that way.” The first robbery was on Friday, Nov. 14 at about 3 p.m., outside of Dunbarton High School. While walking alone to the bus, a group of four teens encircled him. One of them told Chris to empty his pockets while another threatened him and pulled the headphones off his head. “We move here and it’s happening in broad daylight in the busiest parts of Pickering,” Chris said, adding he wondered why no cars Ron Pietroniro/ News Advertiser photo stopped to help. A Toronto family moved into the Pickering area a couple of years ago to give their son a safer and more stable upbringing. He has been mugged twice in the last two months, once outside of Dunbarton High School and at the Pickering Recreation Complex.

Editor’s Note: Photo chief Walter Passarella retired from Metroland at the end of 2008. As one of his final assignments he put together this retrospective of images he was most proud of during his distinguished 25-year career.

The blink of an eye . . . That’s all it takes to capture an image that tells the whole story. The only hitches being you have to be there and you have to be ready. The rest is luck. Or so it may seem. It also seems that for me, at least, the past 25 years as a news photographer have passed just as quickly. A quarter century of making photos that helped illustrate the life and times of our community. On this page is just a small sampling of the pictures that meant just that little bit more to me and hopefully to you as well. It’s been an incredible journey doing a fascinating job.
