‘Canadian legacy’

Dear Editor:

On behalf of the Au family, I wanted to thank you for the remembrance of Chuck Au that you published in the Advertiser on April 8.

Of course, we knew that our dad made an effort to be welcoming and that as we grew up, the Black and White was a gathering place for kids to hang out and adults to cap off an evening’s entertainment.

But we were surprised by the number and sincerity of fond memories and kind words that appeared in our funeral guest book and on social media.

It was especially nice to see such a tribute on a traditional media platform that we know reaches many locals in the Fergus area. It was clear that you have the perspective of a local who has been in the area for many years and so we thought that it captured a nice perspective on our father’s seven-decade Canadian legacy.
