                                             Coleman-Spink. Kathy tells of her
                                              commitment to her children, to sport,
                                              and to her community:

                                               I am a proud mom to three boys who
                                               have been fortunate to have played
                                               many years of ice hockey.  They all
                                              started skating at the age of 3  where
                                              they began their hockey days  in the
                                             CharLan Arena. Since then, our family
                                            has  traveled to many arenas throughout
                                          Canada and the United States and more
          recently throughout Europe.  After playing for the Cornwall Colts Jr. A club,                                       Making dreams come true since 1937
          Tyson and Tylor received a scholarship to Colgate University in Hamilton
          New York where they completed their degree in Education and have since

          I often reminisce about our “minor hockey days” and all the fun times we
          had as a family where we had the opportunity to make new, long-lasting                 www.pommierjewellers.com
          friendships and memories that we will cherish forever. But I can attest that
