Dear Editor:
I am writing to you, this time with chagrin. This may seem superfluous, but I feel that I should be accountable for my actions, especially after my expression of expectations from the rest of the community.
I inadvertently walked in and partway through a store, even asking for assistance, without recognizing that I did not have my face mask on. The staff pointed it out and generously offered me a mask to complete my purchase. I apologize to the staff and other customers for my oversight.
I had mentioned in a previous letter that I felt there should be a fine enforced for anyone not complying with health board stipulations. I won’t dismiss myself from that.
So, for my misdemeanor I am going to make a donation to Groves Memorial Community Hospital in lieu (I may not notice that I’m speeding but that wouldn’t get me out of the ticket).
I apologize for my inattentiveness. Thank you to everyone doing their part to keep our community safe during this challenging time. God Bless.
Paul Dunnill,
Fergus
