In Memoriam

Recently we have experienced the loss of some much loved, valued and respected members of our community.  Although it is always difficult to loss someone we love, those loses are particularly hard hitting in such a small and close-knit Village. Council and Staff would like to extend our deepest sympathies to those who have been personally affected by the recent passing of a friend or family member; our hearts are with you.  We would also like to thank those of you that have made donations to the Hilton Beach Community Centre in memory of those loved ones.  If you would like to make a donation in honor of a community member that has passed, donations can be made by cheque or e-transfer to info@hiltonbeach.com .  The last few years have been challenging for everyone, but we are resilient and will stand together to hold each other up.
