I Always Wondered

I Always Wondered

Submitted by: Karen Dufault

I Always Wondered - many a times I thought about a delivery man that I helped weekly in my hometown of Buchans. In May 2022, we took a trip back home to Buchans to see our family. We had to travel to Grand Falls-Windsor to pick up some items. I was in the right spot at the right time. As the clerk at a store asked a gentleman his name, I heard, "Wayne Churchill is my name." It took only a few seconds for me to remember fond memories of my childhood. I turned around and approached the man, asking him if he drove a tractor trailer to Buchans about 45 years ago. "Yes!" he replied. I explained that I was the little boy of about 10 years of age that used to ride around town with him. I looked forward to helping Wayne deliver goods around town and my reward was that I got to ride in a big truck. Wayne remembered the little blond-haired boy who was always up to helping him every week. I always wondered what became of Wayne Churchill and now I know! We took a picture together and laughed about old times. Submitted by Keith Tilley of Ignace, ON (former resident of Buchans, NL)   Submitted By: Karen Dufault
