HALDIMAND—Many residents of Haldimand County are mourning the passing of the County’s first official mayor, Lorraine Bergstrand, who passed away in the morning of March 9, 2023 following a battle with cancer.
Bergstrand, who recently celebrated her 70th birthday, was a pillar of the community for decades, beginning her local political career in 1989 as Ward 1 Councillor with Dunnville Town Council, in the days before Haldimand County existed as its own corporation.
