Sharon Kennedy: Chim Chim Cher-ee
By Sharon Kennedy
Special to the Tribune
I was in need of a chimney sweep last week and was told to contact Jerry Methner of Sault Ste. Marie. I phoned him, left a message and that evening he returned my call. Unlike the four plumbers I had called and the brush-hog guy who never showed up, Jerry and his grandson arrived at the appointed day and hour. After three weeks, I’m still hopeful the other men will have the courtesy to return my calls, but that hope is fading as fast as a snowball in a hot oven.
