The Tipperary & Jean Gauthier McGrath (by Wilma Bush)

 I often wonder if anyone, over the years, ever taped or made a video of Jean (Gauthier) McGrath singing Ave Maria at numerous weddings in Sacred Heart. She had a lovely voice - a French lady who came from Timmins - operated Tipperary House on Marble Point Rd with husband Jim - had overnight guests - served meals & had a small shop in the one room where I I had my first popsickle - Mom preferred their Eskimo Pies! We loved it when she attended any of the bonfires around Crowe Lake because we were able to hear her voice again. She & Jim were godparents of my brother Jim McKinnon.

Joanne MacKenzie Thompson  adds:   I wish I had seen these pics when we owned the Tipperary (1983-1989)...it would have been wonderful to have that front/side verandah facing the water again...we only had a small front porch.

Andy Logan adds:   Great shot of the Tipperary House. My grandfather (Grampa Hulsman) used to own it. I was just a wee lad then but remember there celebrating his 90th birthday.
