Mission joins lobby to unlink federal funding from P3 deals for public water projects Neil CORBETT Abbotsford News
DL# 8166
As the City of Abbotsford awaits word on its application for federal P3 funding for a major water supply project, other Lower Mainland communities are resisting the public/ private deals. On Tuesday night, Mission council was asked by a delegation from Water Watch Mission Abbotsford (WWMA) to support Burnaby, which will bring a motion to the Union of B.C. Municipalities pushing for federal funding of public water projects without P3 involvement. Mission plans to lobby Ottawa directly in writing, and through Pitt Meadows-Maple RidgeMission MP Randy Kamp, for alternatives to P3 funding. WWMA spokesperson Diane Kalen Sukra lauded Mission council at Tuesday’s meeting. “We watched many council members, not just here in Mission but also in Abbotsford, agonize and express dismay at the predicament our municipalities have been put in to access fed-
eral funds for vital infrastructure projects.” The group will be asking Abbotsford council to join the lobby for alternatives to P3 funding for water projects at Monday’s council meeting. Public/private partnerships, known as P3s, have gained provincial and federal government favour over the past decade. Proponents cite various benefits from having private enterprise invest in civic projects, including greater efficiencies in construction and operation, and less capital borrowing for civic government. Opponents counter those claims, and express concern over private involvement in critical public services such as water supply. Mission Mayor James Atebe wants a choice. He said public municipal water infrastructure has historically been eligible to receive grants of one-third funding from each of the federal and provincial governments, but that is not presently the case. “At this time, the only

Water gushes in Norrish Creek, one of Abbotsford’s water sources. The City of Abbotsford plans to supplement existing supplies with water from Stave Lake, and is waiting on an application for federal funding which would be part of a controversial P3 arrangement.

United Way of the Fraser Valley — Kick-Off Breakfast
Notice of Community Meeting Affordable Housing Strategy Public Open House
Culvert Replacement and Watercourse Maintenance
Please join the United Way for their Annual United Way Campaign kick-off! There will be a free pancake breakfast and entertainment.
The City of Abbotsford invites you to a public open house for viewing the draft Affordable Housing Strategy. The open house will include a presentation and display boards, and provides a Âżnal opportunity for public comment on the draft Strategy.
In late September 2011, the City intends to replace a culvert and conduct watercourse maintenance (accumulated sediment removal) at the location noted on the map below. The removed sediment will be disposed of appropriately as per provincial environmental regulations.
The open house will be held on Tuesday, September 20, 2011 between 3:30 and 7:00pm, at the Sandman Inn in meeting room Studio One, 32720 Simon Avenue, Abbotsford, BC (enter the glass doors between the Sandman Inn and Denny’s). A presentation will be given twice, once at 4:00pm and repeated at 6:00pm.
The City submitted an environmental report as part of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (CEAA) review process to the federal authority, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO). Final approval from DFO is required and will be in place before the work begins.
As part of the 2011 Roads Capital Construction Program, the City of Abbotsford Engineering Department is planning road improvements at the following locations:

option they have is P3,” he said. “I hope we will continue – and we’re lobbying through our MP – to have options for municipalities other than P3.” He said Mission council did not take a philosophical stand against P3s, but took its lead from public opposition to private involvement. “We listened to our community. When we held public input, the public was very clear,” he said. “There was an overwhelming crowd at city hall that made a case about why they didn’t want P3.” Abbotsford Coun. John Smith said the city has to pursue the P3 route, because it can’t afford to wait for future funding, hoping it becomes available soon. He called P3 funding “the lowest hanging fruit. And there isn’t a lot of other fruit.” Smith noted it will take about three years to get the Stave Lake water on stream once the work begins. A wait of six or seven years could see the city on water rationing, he predicted. MP Kamp said there is no Conservative government plan to promote P3 projects at the exclusion of others. He said the funding is available through P3 Canada because municipalities

“I understand that certain pro-jects lend themselves better to P3 funding,” he said, but added a water project can be developed with “enough safeguards in place.” Kamp said more public funds for infrastructure will become available in the future, but the government has been running deficit budgets due to the downturn in the global economy, and it fast-tracked infrastructure projects to stimulate
the economy. He is not aware of a timeline for new funding. He also expressed concern about the fractured relationship between former water system partners Abbotsford and Mission, and how they will work together in the future now that Abbotsford is taking the P3 path, and Mission opposes it. “It’s not clear to me how that’s going to work.” The city is proposing to create a new $284-million water source and treatment centre at Stave Lake. The city has applied for federal funding from PPP Canada to create a publicprivate partnership to build and operate the new facility If approval for federal funding is received, it could provide up to 25 per cent of the cost, or in the range of $70 million. A referendum will be required to get the assent of the electorate. It will likely be a two-part question – one regarding the borrowing of funds to pay the capital costs, and the other asking for approval of the financial terms of the P3 agreement. A decision from PPP Canada is anticipated soon. Also see Blue Community A6
Jarrod Bacon elects trial by judge Drug conspiracy charges from 2009 Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
The conspiracy trial of Jarrod Bacon and co-accused Arnold (Wayne) Scott, both of Abbotsford, is scheduled to begin Oct. 3 in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver. On Tuesday, Bacon and Scott both opted to have their case heard by judge only, rather than a judge and jury as they had previously selected. The trial is expected to take four weeks. The two were among five arrested in November 2009 following a police undercover sting, called E-Pintle, that targeted rivals the Red Scorpions and the UN Gang. Police allege that Bacon, 28, and Scott, in his 50s, were working with the Red Scorpions at the time. E-Pintle involved a team of undercover officers posing as criminals who could import $3 million of cocaine from Mexico to the Lower Mainland. Police allege the

The other three have also been charged with that offence, as well as possession for the purpose of trafficking, and their trial is scheduled to begin Nov. 14 in Vancouver. Bacon is the only one of the five who is currently in prison, according to the provincial court database. He is the middle of the Bacon brothers, the eldest of whom – Jonathan, 30 – was killed in a targeted shooting Aug. 14 in Kelowna. Four others were injured, including a member of the Hells Angels, a member of the Independent Soldiers, and two women. Youngest brother Jamie, 26, also remains in prison following his conviction on multiple weapons offences and while he awaits trial for his alleged role in the Surrey Six slayings.

A ‘Blue Community’ Fighting the commodification of water is the goal of the Blue Community motion put forward by his city, says Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan. The motion will be debated at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in Vancouver on Sept. 2630, and could represent
the position of B.C.’s cities and towns. “Most people are oblivious that there is a major effort to gain control of water, much as they (corporations) gained control of oil resources,” Corrigan told The News. Abbotsford’s only choice for infrastructure funding

for its water system is through a publicprivate partnership, approved by the government agency P3 Canada. However, Corrigan is adamant that pub-
lic control over civic services such as water must take priority. “Intuitively, people are reluctant to give up requirements for human life to the private sector,” he said.
Burnaby’s Blue Community motion: WHEREAS public health depends on equitable access to clean water supplies; AND WHEREAS the public ownership and operation of drinking water and wastewater treatment systems has improved access and quality, and public operation has been shown to be cost-effective, efficient, transparent, accountable and responsive to changing technology, priorities, and community needs: THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that UBCM call upon the federal government, through the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and/or other avenues, to fulfil its responsibility to invest in the renewal and replacement of aging local government infrastructure, including that related to drinking water and wastewater, in a manner that ensures continued public ownership.

Subway robbed twice by gunman Suspect flees with cash both times Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
A man who held up a Subway restaurant in the 2600 block of McMillan Road on Sunday night is believed to be the same suspect involved in a second armed robbery at that location on Tuesday. Abbotsford Police are now asking for more witnesses and information in hopes of capturing the culprit, described as Caucasian, in his 40s, 5’ 3” to 5’ 5” tall, and with a scruffy beard. He was wearing a black hoodie during both robberies. Both incidents occurred at about 10 p.m. – just before
the restaurant closed for the night – and involved the man producing a handgun, demanding cash from an employee, and fleeing on foot. Const. Ian MacDonald said it is not yet known whether the gun used was real or imitation. Also in both cases, a police dog was able to track the suspect’s path for only a short distance from the restaurant. MacDonald said this is because the area of McMillan and Old Yale Road has a high volume of pedestrian and vehicular traf fic which concealed the suspect’s scent.
On the plus side, MacDonald said the busy residential area means that the potential for witnesses is high. Police are hoping someone saw the man running away from the scene or perhaps riding away on a bicycle or getting into a car. He said it is unusual for a suspect to target the same business twice in such a short time frame, but the man was likely desperate for drug money. “He was successful the first time, so he (was) giving it another go.” There were no customers in the restaurant during either incident, but a
22-year-old employee was working during both robberies. She didn’t witness the first robbery because she was at the back of the restaurant while a 17-year-old female was at the front. During the second incident, the woman was at the front of the restaurant, while a 23-year-old man was at the back. MacDonald said all the workers involved are shaken up, but are otherwise doing well and have been offered counselling support by their company. He said crime analysts and major crime detectives are continuing to

investigate and have compiled a list of possible suspects. They are also going through surveillance video from the scene and surrounding businesses. MacDonald said they will attempt to identify the suspect internally and will only release images to the public if they are unable to do so.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Girl taken from home
Are you saving for your child’s post-secondary education?
Vikki Hopes and the Abbotsford News deserve kudos for keeping up with this story. This girl has been kept away from her family for almost three months, and it looks like it will be several more months before she will be home. Sarah Leary
To answer, go to abbynews.com
I think it is terrible that the MCFD removed a child from a loving home because they believed the parent was overwhelmed. What parent isn’t overwhelmed at times? Since when does this mean a child needs to be removed from the home? Laurie Hatton
LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:
Do you illegally talk and text while driving despite the new laws?
Presumably the child will settle down in school after being drugged into submission. So does that become the new care standard? If parents refused to drug their children and teachers find them difficult in school, they are supposed call up MCFD to “fix” the child because the parent “will not?” Papa Inbc

Introduction to high school – now and then Andrew
Holota
On Point My daughter Anna started high school this week. That’s Grade 9 here in Abbotsford. When I was her age, high school began in Grade 8. It was a different time of transition. Nowawdays, there are introductory visits, information mailouts, spirit events, and orientation days featuring legions of “leadership” students ushering the newbies around, helping them find their lockers and classrooms and bathrooms, all the while extolling the wonderful virtues of their new homeaway-from-home for the next four years. The whole thing is run like a pro marketing campaign, designed to introduce the nervous new arrivals with the least amount of angst. Wow… Back in my day, there was nothing like that. You left Grade 7 with an empty, gnaw-
ing sensation in your stomach. This was it – the end of the familiar little school where you knew everyone, and you could count the number of classrooms on one hand. In the fall, it would be the uncharted wilderness of a high school that sprawled over several acres, and held the population of a small town. The introductory tour consisted of a bicycle drive-by during the summer. Yessir, there it was. Huge and imposing. Locked and solemn. You just knew, dark forces lurked in those hallways, waiting to consume the new young interlopers. My daughter is extremely excited about her new school year. In contrast, my anticipation for Grade 8 was along the lines of a visit to a dentist – a big, hairy one, wearing an eyepatch, and holding rusty pliers. And then it was Day One. Standing out on the country road, waiting for the school bus. A journey into the unknown, followed by an unceremonious offloading in the parking lot, with hundreds of others. Thousands. Maybe tens of thousands. How could there be that many strangers in the entire province, let alone
Abbotsford? The welcoming committee was a platoon of Grade 10s on the front steps. Smug, confident expressions, haughtily looking down at the little geek with the briefcase. Yeah, I admit it. I carried a briefcase. I think my mother thought it was the thing to do.
This was it – the end of the familiar little school where you knew everyone. I was an instant target for ridicule. “Watcha got in the briefcase, goof ? Your pyjamas?” Another kid might have ditched the thing the same day. For me, it became a symbol of resistance. I kept that leather case right through Grade 8. Some of my tormentors felt its wrath, too. Passing quickly in a crowded hall,
held at a strategic elevation and angle, that briefcase could deliver a satisfying blow into the nether regions of the thugs. And then Ninja Nerd would melt away into the crowd ... off on a frantic hunt for the physics lab. We didn’t have friendly, older student guides to help us negotiate the labyrinth of halls and breezeways and multiple levels of classrooms, and interrogation rooms, and torture chambers. Well, I never did personally see the latter, but the Grade 10s insisted they existed in the basement. For the first week or two, it was navigation by panic, heightened by stubborn locker locks that would have confounded Houdini. Rotate the combination dial to the first number, reverse two turns, now to the next number, the bell has just rung, don’t pass the last number, stand on one foot, and do the hokey-pokey ... you have two seconds until your next class ... abandon the mission to get the textbooks out of the locker, and just run to find the classroom now? Or just run home? It was tempting... I tell my daughter those were character-building days.

Bylaw about power, control Re: Column on city fines for tree-cutting on private property. Please thank Mark Rushton for his contribution on the subject, and providing excellent reasons for not needing this bylaw. In addition, one might add the fact that the B.C. forest industry currently plants about $250 million forestry seedlings annually in British Columbia. However, that is not what this is about, is it? It is my contention that this bylaw must overstep at least one boundary in our Canadian constitution. If it does not, then as a nation I believe we are doomed. This bylaw is about power and control over citizens, and extracting money from them at will. These types of bylaws foster distrust and CLASSIFIEDS ONLINE

division between neighbours, friends, and even within families. Bylaw enforcement is complaint or shall we say “fink” driven, is it not? What a superb way to “divide and rule” the general populace. With money coerced from the people through this bylaw, I suggest the city take the first opportunity (say the next major new intersection or roundabout) and erect, instead of native art or a berry edifice, a life-size statue of Joseph Stalin. This gesture will demonstrate the total contempt city of Abbotsford officials have for citizens living here. It might also function to alert potential investors and newcomers to what awaits them.

Share a little magic with a young person.
Teachers’ salaries under median
Re: Letter written by G.E. MacDonell in regards to “no increases for teachers.” My husband is a teacher here in B.C., and I have to admit, we do OK on his salary. We are raising four children, and they are all in activities, which is more than I can say for many families. I am also fortunate that I am a stay-at-home mom with a small home business, so although we are tight, we are able to provide for our family. I would like to clarify, however, the comment made that a teacher with five years experience makes $75,000. According to the BCTF collective agreement, this is incorrect. A teacher with a BA and five years experience actually makes $56,421 – $8,600 under the median family income in B.C. As well, a teacher with a Master’s degree and five years experience earns a salary of $61,939, still under what G.E. MacDonell states is the B.C. median family income. D. Bradley

Sockeye probe split on aquaculture risk Jeff NAGEL
Black Press
Two researchers hired by the Cohen Inquiry have come to differing conclusions on the likelihood commercial salmon farms are seriously harming the Fraser River sockeye run. SFU biologist Dr. Larry Dill concluded the evidence suggests the growth in fish farm production and the decline in sockeye stocks are linked, likely in concert with other marine factors. He found the spread
of disease is the most likely factor – not sea lice infestations, escaping farmed salmon or waste discharged from the farms, such as uneaten food or chemicals. The potential damage to juvenile sockeye from the large numbers of penned Atlantic salmon they pass in the Broughton Archipelago might seem like common sense, Dill testified Monday before the commission into the decline of sockeye stocks, but stressed

his findings are far from conclusive. “The evidence for that is there, but it’s fairly weak and uncertain,� he said. “Common sense is not always a good guide to
science.� Dill said the aquaculture industry adds new risks for migrating wild stocks. The farms make it much easier for different incoming or
outgoing generations of sockeye to pass pathogens back and forth, he said. Dill also said the huge number of fish being farmed leads to bio-magnification,
where large numbers of parasites can build up, and more virulent strains of pathogens can evolve. Dr. Don Noakes, a Thompson Rivers University profes-
sor, penned a second paper commissioned by the inquiry, and concluded none of the risk factors associated with fish farms is likely to have damContinued on A15

He said he has concerns about the interpretation of data from studies examining the possible link between sea lice and salmon in the Discovery Islands, which he called unlikely. “There is no evidence that any exotic pathogens or diseases have been introduced by the salmon farming industry,” Noakes report states. In cross-examination before the commission Monday, Noakes was pressed to admit his findings were “speculative” and water
them down. “It’s my assessment,” he maintained. “I haven’t heard anything to convince me otherwise.” The inquiry heard that three million Atlantic salmon die each year in the floating net pens between northern Vancouver Island and the mainland, and that up to 600,000 perish from disease. Previously, the inquiry heard geneticist Kristi Miller argue a newly detected virus could be a major factor behind the sockeye die-off, but she also conceded the evidence so far does not suggest aquaculture is directly

Peachey to take election run at Peary Announces campaign for mayoralty Neil CORBETT Abbotsford News
Gerda Peachey is putting her name forward for the Abbotsford mayoralty race this fall, saying she has no illusions that she can beat incumbent Mayor George Peary, but knowing her voice will be heard. “It’s an opportunity to raise issues that I think are important,” said Peachey. She wants to have her say about a proposed P3 water system to deliver water to the city. While she concedes that the private sector generally operates more efficiently than government, she says water is too important to allow business involvement. “What do the poor do, when you jack the price of water up?” Peachey asks. Peachey would like to see the city bylaws department do a better job of enforcement, particularly with illegal suites and housing on agricultural lands. She would like to see more morality in the city administration, saying “Using Tradex for that filthy sex show is morally reprehensible.” Peachey is critical of Peary’s style on council. “He treats council members like he’s the principal and they’re students,” she said. She adds that decisions appear to have already been made away from the coun-
cil table, or said. prior to public “I’m not meetings being even a mosheld, with quito on councillors the hide “rubber stampof George ing” staff recPeary.

injunction and distributing raw milk labelled “Not For Human Consumption” to shareholders, operations of the “Home On The Range” farm was handed over to Michael Schmidt, a raw milk advocate from Ontario, and renamed “Our Cows.” He continued distributing raw milk to investors in the “cowshare” co-op – not as food, but as a line of cosmetics, which falls under federal regulation. “We take dividends from our jointlyheld asset in the form of fluid milk labelled Enzymatic Bath Lotion,” co-op co-founder Gordon Watson said in an Internet blog. But in a telephone interview he said the herd is private property, owned by the shareholders, and what they do with the milk is none of the health authority’s business. “The FHA will say they anticipate that people will drink it,” he said. “I say it doesn’t matter what they do with it. “They can paint with it – or they can drink it, if it suits them.” Watson made no bones about what he does with his milk. “I do drink my milk,” he said. Watson said he doesn’t want a court fight, but he would “welcome” a prosecution, if it’s held “in open court and done properly.” “I’m convinced what I’m doing is legal,” he said. Watson argued that B.C. health authorities issue only a public “alert” when health hazards like tainted seafood are discovered, but shut down operations like raw milk cowshares in which members are fully aware of the risk. Raw milk is sold legally in Washington state, he pointed out, “but up here it becomes a biohazard.” “It’s not about health, it’s about the milk marketing monopoly,” he said. B.C.

MCC aims for $700,000 Annual relief sale starts tonight at Tradex Neil CORBETT Abbotsford News
The Mennonite Centre Committee (MCC) is shooting for $700,00 again at this weekend’s relief auction, which starts tonight (Friday) at Tradex. Generally, the top-earning auctions have raised more than that, but with the economic downtown, last year’s auction slipped below that high-water mark. “It’s a great, fun event, and we have a huge attendance,” said Dora Hoeppner, relief sale coordinator. The funds go toward MCC’s work with people suffering from HIV and AIDs in Africa as this year’s focus, but the agency also continues with food and water projects to address famine in Africa. The event will have some new features combined with favourites from the past. An electronics auction is new this year, and will take place on Friday night from 7-8 p.m. All of the technology items sold will be in new condition. The event will be open from 5 to 9 p.m. on
Friday, and in addition, there will be a children’s auction from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Saturday will begin with a pancake breakfast from 8 to 9 a.m., and the regular auction begins at 9:30 a.m. The doors will close at 2 p.m. It will begin with the ceremonial auctioning of a loaf of bread, which last year sold for $159,000. Another popular feature is the auctioning of traditional, hand-made quilts. People also attend for the entertainment and food. After last year’s event, Hoeppner said the event went through 25,000 vereniki (cottage cheese perogies), 750 pounds of farmer’s sausage, and so many porzelky (raisin dumplings) that it took 800 pounds of flour and 400 pounds of raisins to make them. In addition to popular Mennonite fare, the food court will feature food from Africa and Latin America. MCC operates 52 relief sales across North America, and Abbotsford’s is one of the biggest and most generously supported. On Sunday at 2:30 p.m., the weekend’s festivities will come to a close with the Festival of Praise at Emmanuel Mennonite Church.

Past and future members of the Abbotsford Heat, like so many school-aged kids, will be delivering reports this week on how they spent their summer vacations. The hockey players will tell their tale on the ice at the Young Stars Tournament, a five-day event which opens on Sunday at Penticton’s South Okanagan Events Centre. “In general, they’re just going to go out there and play,” said new Heat head coach Troy Ward, who will be helming the Calgary Flames prospects squad in Penticton. “We’re not going to give them a whole lot of structure. But I will say this – we’re going to find out which guys have put in the time in the off-season. “Are they playing at a higher level and a quicker pace than they were a year ago? Have they gotten physically more gifted? Have they shed some body weight? Have they picked up speed?

New Heat head coach Troy Ward (top left), pictured talking strategy with Jim Playfair last season, will be watching closely at the Young Stars Tournament in Penticton to see which players have put in the work over the summer. “For me, it’s an indicator as to their work ethic and their character.” The Flames, the Heat’s NHL parent club, are sending a team of prospects to Penticton for the second straight year. Other entries include the Vancouver Canucks, Edmonton Oilers, San Jose Sharks and Winnipeg Jets. The 30-man Flames roster that will hit the ice in Penticton fea-
tures 14 players who suited up for the Heat last season, including forwards Greg Nemisz, Lance Bouma and Carter Bancks, and defencemen T.J. Brodie, Chris Breen and John Negrin. Others, like former Chilliwack Bruins standouts Ryan Howse and Roman Horak, are poised to turn pro this season, most likely with Abbotsford. The Flames open the tourney on Sunday
against the Sharks (4 p.m. start). They also play the Canucks (Monday, 4 p.m.) and the Oilers (Wednesday, 7:30 p.m.). The Penticton event represents Ward’s debut as a head coach in the Flames organization – he served as a Heat assistant last season under Jim Playfair, who departed in June to join the Phoenix Coyotes.

Cascades host Santa Clara Sports
Q The University of the Fraser Valley men’s basketball team takes on Steve Nash’s alma mater in exhibition action tonight (Friday). The Santa Clara Broncos, an NCAA Division 1 program which helped launch Victoria native Nash on to NBA superstardom, visit the Envision Athletic Centre for date with the Cascades. Tip-off is at 7 p.m., and will be preceded by a tailgate party in parking lot 10 at 5 p.m. The event includes a barbecue, an opportunity to meet UFV student-athletes, and the chance to win prizes, including two Abbotsford Heat hockey jerseys.
Q Registration for Athletes in Action’s Friday Nite Basketball program runs the next two Saturdays (Sept. 10 and 17) from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at MEI Elementary. Friday Nite Basketball is a community league which seeks to help kids develop fundamental basketball skills, make friends, build character and have fun. The program, for boys and girls age 4-18, runs in gyms across Abbotsford from October to March. For more information on player registration or volunteer coaching, call Irene at 604-853-1913.

Lims win at Ledgeview Raymond and Helen Lim teamed up for a decisive win at the Ledgeview Mixed Invitational, held over the Labour Day long weekend. The Surrey couple combined for a twoday total of four-under 136 to take low
gross honours at the Abbotsford layout, finishing well ahead of Bernie Bolokoski and Teri Fisher (143), and Michael Fisher and Faye Griffin (148). Rod Benjamin and Mel Roadhouse finished with the low net score of 125. The event drew 110 golfers from around the Lower Mainland, and raised $1,000 for Holmberg House, a resource centre and adult hospice planned
by the Abbotsford Hospice Society as part of the Abbotsford Regional Hospital’s Campus of Care. “The feedback we’re getting from the golfers is wonderful,” said Fisher, the Ledgeview club captain. “We get a good mix of serious golfers and golfers who just like to come out to have a good time, because the tournament has a great reputation for that.”

Ebenstiner, Raymond Raymond Ebenstiner passed away peacefully at home of a heart attack on Monday, September 5th, 2011. He was born in Vancouver on October 5, 1933. He is survived by Carol, his loving wife of 56 years. They lived in Burnaby until retiring to Abbotsford in 1999. He was employed with Eatonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for 42 years, starting out in the drafting department and working his way up to become the Design Manager for all of Western Canada.

When Ray retired, he joined the hiking club and spent many great days hiking miles and miles all over the Lower Mainland and the Fraser Valley. When he moved to Abbotsford, he took up lawn bowling and enjoyed that very much. In his last weeks, we are very grateful that Ray had an opportunity to spend a day at the PNE, and participate in several family celebrations. Ray was a kind-hearted man with a ready smile and a dry wit. He enjoyed living close to his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. We know that he loved us all very much and he will be greatly missed.

These words are powerful werful and yet I hear them often â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why did my child die before me?â&#x20AC;? In 2005 my sister Pat was diagnosed with terminal cancer. She was the oldest of eight siblings. There was no history of cancer in our family. My mamma died when she was 64 years of age of a massive heart attack. The next couple of years were going to be very challenging for my family. In 2006, my sister Anna was diagnosed with breast cancer. I lived 2000 km away from my family. The difďŹ culty of not being there was painful. I decided to take a month off work. In October 2006, I went back to Ontario to spend time with my sisters and to be with
my father father. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d lost his wife just before he retired. Now he was faced with another crisis that he could not control. His daughters were battling cancer. The good news is that my sister Anna survived. The bad news is that my sister Pat passed away in January 2007. Parents who lose a child go through extreme hurt and pain. The law of nature tells us that children are supposed to outlive their parents. In my fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case this was not to be. The harsh reality of losing a child was unbearable for him in many ways. Family dynamics change and life seems to become unfair. We wish that certain realities in life where only a dream.
