Dear Editor,
It is coming up on almost 7 years ago now that Fergus lost one of it’s children – Lucas Shortreed in a tragic hit and run accident north of the town on Road 17.
I find it so very difficult that someone hasn’t come forward in all of these years to give themselves, and the family peace. I have heard people whisper in the town on several occasions as to who may have been involved yet the police can’t seem to nail a suspect down or find the vehicle involved. How is this even possible?
I moved away from Fergus many years ago. Lucas was my nephew. I can’t drive through town without stopping at the cemetery to visit.
Fergus always was a “best kept secret” back in the day. A town of beauty and nice people. I suppose it will always keep it’s “secrets”. Wake up and talk about this.
It could have been your son.
