Crier subscriber  and former Mildmayite Ted Hesch sent us this very interesting and timely photo due to the  recent Coronation of the new King Charles.  Ted, a retired member of the RCMP, was involved in providing security for him when he visited Calgary, Alberta as a Prince in 1977.  The photo was taken at the  Sarcee Indian Reserve now known as the Tsuu Tina Reserve located adjacent to Calgary.  Ted, in uniform, is pictured at the right. Prince Charles, in the middle of the photo, was in prayer with the local Sarcee Indians.  (Thank you Ted for sharing your photo!)

On April 19, 1993 Confirmation was held at Mildmay Sacred Heart Church for Grades 7 and 8. Pictured with the students is Bishop Matthew Ustrzycki. Father Michael Bennett was the Parish Priest at the time.  The photo was submitted by a Crier subscriber.
