The word “nostalgia” comes from the Greek; “nostos”, meaning
homecoming and “algia” meaning pain or ache; The ache to
come home.
Remember your first bike or that dress your mother made you?
How about the back lane that you cut through as a shortcut
home from school? I bet there was even a secret hiding place
somewhere in your house.
Those memories, that seem so true, so concrete, so lovely and
sometimes so horrible, may just be the ethereal remnants of the
dream we call youth. And, though ghostly, how important they
are, and how they define us. I know first-hand.
On December, 18, 2014, I started a Facebook group. It was
meant to be an historical group about the Beach(es) neigh-
bourhood in Toronto where I grew up. It was a whim (which
Facebook seems so very good at facilitating). I christened
it The Beacher History Kaboodle and invited some friends to
join. Within a couple of months, we had about two hundred
Kaboodlers and we chugged along happily that way for several
years. Some members were more active than others but every-
one participated in their own way. The content was a mix of
historical photos and childhood memories and from the very
beginning, there existed a solid, social bond within the group
and a close connection to our beloved Beach(es).
Over the years, I checked in and out of the Kaboodle with the
feeling that it would go on without me, as it should. In mid-Feb-
ruary, of 2020, again on a whim I logged back in after some
time away. As I suspected the usual players were still there, and
I waded back into the stream of stories and photos.
A few weeks later something peculiar happened. Something
incomparable and singular; The Canadian government, in
response to a global pandemic began strongly advising
Canadians to stay home. Suddenly, we all found ourselves shut-
tered inside in the dark of late winter.
That’s when the change came.
On March, 13, 2020, the day the government announced its
first self-isolation advisory, the population of The Beacher History
Kaboodle, after several years of quiet activity, grew to 291
members. By the end of the month, that figure would more
than double. By April, 9th, it had grown to 5 times its original size
and surpassed the 1000-member mark.
It became clear to me, from the rate of growth and the quality
of the conversation, that something special was happening.
A group that
had begun
as a forum
for exchang-
ing bits of local
history, anec-
dotes and chit-chat, was
evolving into something new,
something needed. A bigger
version of itself, yes, but
more than just that. With the
larger numbers came a new
dynamic with fewer degrees
of separation and vastly more
interconnectivity.
I saw old friends reconnecting after decades apart. Neighbours
reliving their childhoods, running through each-others backyards
again, playing “hide n’ go” on Balsam Road, and swapping
stories and photos of their favourite old haunts. I can’t tell you
how many times I have read the words “Oh my gosh, is that
you?!”
More and more Beachers were invited in and the Kaboodle
began morphing into a conduit of happy distraction for an ever
growing yet deeply isolated group of shipwrecked, old friends
who all ached to come home again.
Isn't it ironic that the Covid-19 pandemic that has tragically sep-
arated people all over the world and has forced humans into
desperate situations of seclusion and depression could bring
so many old friends together in one place? I got to see this
happen first hand and it has been a joyful silver lining for me in
this cloud of global despair.
I read a post a few weeks ago that, for me summed it all up;
A member was reminiscing in a long thread about a close
friend she knew as a teenage girl. Recounting what a great guy
he was and all the great times she had had with him and his
family, playing music at his house over those years. She ended
her post by asking,
“Does anyone know what ever happened to him?”
The next comment below her post read, “I’m right here.”
The last time I checked, the group’s membership stood at
3364 Kaboodlers. That tells me, that when faced with isolation,
humans will always find new ways to reach out to each other.
BEACHERS RECONNECT IN ISOLATION

n May, 12, Ella Soper and her family celebrated
the 106th birthday of her grandmother, Teresa
Brown. Four generations of the Brown women,
together with their families, gathered at Teresa's Long-Term
Care (LTC) facility, which was ravaged in April by a COVID-
19 outbreak, where a 1/4 of the residents died (the outbreak
has since been contained). Incredibly, Ella’s Nanny was one
of only a handful of people in her unit who survived: either
she avoided infection, or was asymptomatic. (Teresa's sister
Nonie, who lives in the UK, has a similar story of surviving an
outbreak at her LTC facility; she's 103.)

“ Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side.
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling,
It's you, it's you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow,
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow,
It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow,
Oh, Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so! ”
- LFrederic Weatherly
...continued on page 8
Ella, her mother, Carol, daughter, Maeve, and step-
daughter, Shari, know that to be 106 and survive the
deadly infection that swept through Teresa’s LTC,
is nothing short of miraculous: “We were planning
both a birthday and a funeral, but in the end, we
socially distanced with cupcakes for all the frontline
care workers and a piper played her favourite
song, Danny Boy. It was wonderful to see her come
outside for a few minutes and know that we were
there for her.”
As a young girl, Teresa survived the Spanish Flu
of 1918-1919. Ella explains that the Flu caused her
Nanny to lose her sense of smell, and, tragically, her
baby sister. As a young woman, Teresa was a first
responder during the bombing of London: she bravely
entered bombed-out buildings to take the injured
back to the hospital. As an attending nurse she spent
long hours wearing her white nurses’ bonnet, assuring
young soldiers that they were not alone as they lay
dying.
Now that the worst of the crisis is over, and staffing
levels have returned to pre-COVID levels, Ella and her
family are happy to report that Teresa is receiving
safe attentive care at the hands of the LTC facility's
front-line workers and volunteers.
Ella, Carol, Maeve, and Shari live in the
Beach; Teresa is across town, behind the "iron ring"
protecting her LTC facility. Throughout the outbreak,
the women and their families assured their connection
to the family matriarch by way of an Android tablet,
so that they can monitor her room and speak to
her daily. It provides comfort to Teresa and to the
women in the Beach, who provide virtual support
and assistance to the PSWs and volunteers as they
go about their daily routines. During the period in
which there was frequent staffing turnovers, the family
was able to provide critical continuity, and to help
support workers who didn't know Teresa to provide her
with the support and assistance she requires (Teresa
is blind, confined to a wheelchair after a series of falls
last year, and cannot hear very well). The family watch
as frontline staff comfort Teresa through touch, hair
brushing, feeding, and a simple back scratch that
means the world to Ella: “The PSWs tell her that I am
there when it’s my shift to monitor. Our relationship
is mediated through technology. It is to come full-
circle to now see Nanny get the same loving care as
she displayed years ago to the soldiers she attended
to during the War.”

At the height of the outbreak Ella's family rallied to
ensure that front-line staff had sufficient essential
equipment, so that they could safely attend to
those in their care. Since then, Ella and Carol
have found themselves at the centre of a
movement advocating for dignity in the care
and treatment of our elderly population--as well
as for that of those who care for them. They
have deepened their connection to other
families at the LTC facility--many of whom lost
a loved one to COVID, and seek solace in
either their new-found community, staying
in touch through a Facebook Group that
Ella created at Carol's suggestion. Ella and
Carol, together with the families of other
residents, continue to call for a provincial
Public Inquiry to further understand how
LTC facilities can best plan for, triage
and develop infectious disease control protocols, in the hope
that these measures might prevent future deadly outbreaks.
When Ella is not monitoring the tablet in her Nanny's room, or advocating for LTC facility reform, Ella and her partner Don
have needed to get creative about managing the lifestyles of their children: Shari just started her first job as a PSW in a LTC (she
is completing her RPN certification this month). Shari feels safe where she works, and understands through the experience of Ella’s
Nanny and family the importance of the care she provides. Luckily, Ella and Don’s home has a basement nanny-suite, where Shari
is able to live independently without bringing added risk home: “I use the side-door and wash my hands and change my clothes
as soon as I enter the house. I have my own kitchenette so we don’t all eat together like we used to,” Shari explains. “I love the work
I am doing and I hope to provide the attention and care needed to each person I support safely and with compassion.”
Maeve, who just started the same local high school, that Ella, a life-long Beacher, attended, found ways to manage her new
routine, along with her best friend, Grace. Maeve admits that it was difficult to adjust to distance education. Together, Maeve and
Grace find time to go for runs and ride bikes. They are careful in the time they spend together, and continue to physical distance
from their wider network of friends.
Ella is impressed at the way her family has come together to support each
other and engage in activities through technology: “We had a virtual family
gathering that brought us together from all across North America, and my
brother's girlfriend in San Francisco instructed us on how to make risotto. It was
great! Each person who had signed into the video chat made it a little bit
differently and we had a lot of fun!”
The family has found ways to connect virtually for a positive cause, and hope
that the outcome of the many voices now calling for LTC reform will transform the
industry before Carol's generation needs nursing care. Still, despite all the positive
outcomes for Teresa Brown and her large family, Ella is reflective of the many lives
lost at her Nanny’s LTC home: “I am humbled by the stories the obituaries tell, and
so sad that I didn’t get a chance to know many other residents on my visits to
see Nanny. Many weren’t able to communicate very easily, but there would be
interactions: the woman who always tried to convince me to get her on the elevator
and to another floor, the man who liked to wheel himself into our vicinity and nod off
while Nanny told us one of her many stories. Like all of us, interesting, accomplished,
and deeply loved people who deserved so much better.”

COVID-19! What a blow to all of us! This novel virus we have to
deal with is overwhelming, and there is no telling how long we
will be living with it. From my point of view, it doesn’t make much
difference.
I am going on 105, and I am mostly housebound because I have lived
with arthritis for so many years. But, what about the rest of you?
Being a very curious woman I decided to find out!
AWESOME MOMENTS
EACH DAY
SUBMITTED BY BESSIE STALLWORTHY
Bessie Stallworthy was born in London, England in 1915. She
has survived two World Wars and countless changes within
our society and across our planet.

I started with my middle-age friends, most of whom are empty nesters who enjoy travel, theatre, movies, music, and all the
wonderful things out there to participate in! Now that airplane travel is gone for the most part, they are grounded at home,
calling on all the imagination they possess to get past the boredom.
I am really amazed at the great things being produced and their expansion into technology to connect with others they
hold dear.
I am sad for our university people trying to study at home. Not all have their own computer and their future too, is at a stand-
still. I hope they decide to do the very best they can so that they can be counted as those who make peace in our world.
Where will the careers they set out so happily to pursue and carve out for themselves come from?
Our children in elementary and high school have no idea when they will be able to go back. That is also a big worry to their
parents who have had to assist in their studies and keeping them motivated. It is so important for them to get their educa-
tion so that they can succeed in the future, but his requires hard work.
No wonder we find it hard to sleep at night. Our minds keep going round and round.
I do want to give you something that helps me.
I think that every day should have an Awesome Moment and we need to appreciate them. Bloody Hell
moments are fine for a short time, but you need to get out of it and be one of the helpers so our commu-
nities thrive. I love getting to know our neighbours and I believe that life is bound up with blessings and
problems. We have to have the strength to manage and to believe the world is a good place to be.
I also love to listen to Josh Groban’s wonderful song, 'You Raise Me Up So I Can
Stand on Mountains,’ you can find it online.
Happy Birthday Bessie

Some books were made to be read on a dock. Whether it’s lounging in a Muskoka chair or spread out on a beach towel, reading a
good book to the sound of lapping water is nothing short of heavenly. An engrossing summer read will take all your worries away,
and if it’s really good, it will even make you forget about the mosquitoes.
Since I write thriller novels, I tend to gravitate toward nail-biting stories of suspense; books that grab me on the first page and don’t loosen their grip
until the dreaded words, “The End”. But other genres can be just as captivating, and some even deliver alternative benefits, like not keeping you up all
night in terror.
The list I’ve compiled contains some of our country’s buzziest female writers, well-knowns and debuts alike. Sadly, my own debut thriller— set at a remote
Ontario cottage in July—has been delayed until October 3rd. “Tell Me My Name”, from Dundurn Press, is a fast-paced tale of suspense, and I hope you’ll
remember to check it out this fall.
In the meantime, happy summer reading!

5 RIVETING SUMMER READS
LITTLE SECRETS by Jennifer Hillier
I’m a huge fan of this author, and her latest novel did not disappoint. ”Little Secrets” follows the dismantling of Marin and Derek’s lives after someone takes their five-year-old
son. Unable to recover from her unbearable loss, Marin hires a P.I. to pick up where the police left off, but instead of finding Sebastien, she discovers that Derek is having an
affair. And the woman? Turns out she might have something to do with the disappearance of her little boy. Riveting and un-put-downable!
THE JANE AUSTEN SOCIETY by Natalie Jenner
Just after the Second World War, in the small English village of Chawton, an unusual
but like-minded group of people band together to attempt something remarkable.
One hundred and fifty years ago, Chawton was the final home of the legendary Jane
Austen. Now it's home to a few distant relatives and their diminishing estate. With the
last bit of Austen's legacy threatened, it’s up to the group to preserve her home and
memory. Oakville author Natalie Jenner’s charming debut is garnering rave reviews
around the world. It’s absolutely delightful, and I can’t recommend it enough.
SISTER DEAR by Hannah Mary McKinnon
When Eleanor Hardwicke’s beloved father dies, her world is further shattered by a
gut-wrenching secret: the man she’s grieving isn’t really her dad. Eleanor was the
product of an affair and her biological father is still out there, living blissfully with the
family he chose. With her personal life spiraling, a desperate Eleanor seeks him out,
leading her to uncover another branch on her family tree: an infuriatingly enviable
half-sister. If you like your novels on the dark side, pick up “Sister Dear” and prepare
to be swept up in the twisted saga.
THE STAR STING SCALE: THE CANDACE STARR SERIES
by C.S. Cinneide
The first in a three-part series, this full-throttle crime novel by C.S. Cinneide,
features a one-of-a-kind protagonist in Candace Starr, a six-foot-three-inch retired
hit-woman with a foul mouth and a penchant for bourbon. Described by the Guelph-
based author as “hard-boiled crime fiction with a dark feminine twist,” it’s good,
gritty fun and the perfect companion for a lazy summer day.
HURRY HOME by Roz Nay
Set on the west coast, Canadian bestselling author, Roz Nay’s latest thriller follows
two estranged sisters bound by a devastating secret. Alex Van Ness’s perfect
mountain life with her ex-ski racing husband is disrupted when Ruth, her estranged
sister, shows up needing her help. Of course, things spiral out of control in typical
Nay fashion. With her fully-realized characters and effortless writing style, you won’t
be disappointed!
A Beacher born and raised, Erin Ruddy is a journalist based in Toronto. Her debut novel “Tell Me My Name’,
releases October 3rd, from Dundurn Press. Visit: www.erinhruddy.com for more info.

Things are not business as usual at Eye Candy Opticians. It has been an
especially quiet two months in our shop, but behind the scenes we are
working hard, planning next steps now that we are approved to reopen.
The first steps we have taken are to provide our staff with the proper pro-
tective equipment so that they can interact with clients safely. This includes
plexiglass barriers between clients and clerks, hand sanitizer at multiple sta-
tions throughout the office, and frequent sanitation of surfaces. Our staff
will be wearing masks and gloves when necessary. There is even a plan to
install an accessibility button for our front door.
Our new model will include an appointment-based frame selection
experience to limit the number of people in the shop. Clients will have a
conversation with the optician to explain what they are looking for and from
there the optician will bring a selection of frames to satisfy their criteria and
prescription. Any product that has been touched will be sanitized immedi-
ately before being replaced on display
Our doctors can triage emergencies over the phone. We are also making
modifications to our equipment to ensure a safe experience for both our
clients and staff. Shields, sanitization between clients and pre-screening of
staff and patients.
While things will look different for a while, Eye Candy Opticians will still provide
a safe and pleasant experience for our clientele.

Hello! My name is Ethan, and this is my pet bearded
dragon named, Ghost! Bearded Dragon is the
common name given to a group of Australian lizards
of the Pogona family and they can live for up to 12
years. Bearded dragons is my favourite pet because
they are really cute and easy to take care of. Ghost
likes to sit and bask in the sun, go for walks (we made
him a lead), and he loves to play with my brother's
turtle named, Spike. Ghost’s favourite food is crickets
and his favourite fruit is blueberries.
