“I want to thank Margaret Towndale for volunteering at the Cornwall hospital for 50 years. I also want to thank her husband, Angelo, for his long service to our community.”

“Mr. Speaker, many people in our community know the decades of service to The Children’s Treatment Centre by the legendary Angelo Towndale. I rise today not only to acknowledge his continued contributions but also to highlight someone else who is making a difference in the city of Cornwall and making lives better. His wife, Margaret Towndale, was recognized last week for celebrating an incredible 50 years of volunteering at the Cornwall Community Hospital as a valued member of the Auxiliary. For half a century, Margaret has been a constant presence every week, offering her compassion and unwavering commitment to patients, family and staff. Fifty years of volunteering is not just a number. It is a lifetime of kindness, generosity and quiet leadership. It speaks to a deep sense of duty and care that has touched countless lives in Cornwall and beyond. Margaret’s service reminds us all of the impact one person can make. I thank Margaret and Angelo for everything. Their inspiration and dedication continue to motivate us all.”
