It is with great sadness that the family of Ralph Sandford announce his passing on Friday, November 26, 2021 at the age of 77. He was born and raised in Fort Frances, ON and moved his young family to Thunder Bay in 1971.
Outgoing Eureka Springs City Council member Mickey Schneider has volunteered to join the citys cemetery commission, chair Susan Tharp announced at the commissions meeting on Wednesday, Dec. 9.
Schneider, who attended the commission meeting, did not seek re-election to the city council in November after serving for 12 years. Her final day in office will be Dec. 31.
Mayor Butch Berry would have to appoint Schneider to the commission and the appointment would have to be confirmed by the city council.
Commissioner Judy Holden said the commission had $21,307.96 in an account at Cornerstone Bank. That amount includes $2,345 in donations received in 2020 and $2,485 received from the city on Dec. 8. The city had initially reduced its annual $7,100 allocation to the cemetery commission as part of overall budget cuts but the Dec. 8 payment restored the full allocation, Holden said.
