A special rescue mission Firefighters prove to little girl that they’re OK

Neil CORBETT Abbotsford News

It turns out firefighters are OK after all. But you wouldn’t have been able to convince little Naya Dutkowski of that on Sunday night, as they pried her new bike apart. The four-year-old was riding her bicycle when she lost a shoe, and then got her foot wedged between the pedal and the bike frame. The resulting cries soon brought mom, but Michelle Dutkowski couldn’t free her daughter. She tried vegetable oil, and a friend helped as they tried to slip Naya free, but her foot was tightly caught. Naya was screeching by then, and Michelle was worried her ankle might be seriously injured or even broken, so she called for help. Four firefighters from Hall Two arrived, and confirmed the girl was really stuck. Naya watched them coming and going with pry bars and other equipment, and didn’t really want their help.

She sat on her bike and cried and screamed. “No firemen,” she begged. After a patient hour, the rescuers decided they could free the patient, but the bike was going to have to be sacrificed in order to do that. They started bending the frame. Michelle said that was greater trauma for Naya than having her foot stuck. “She kept saying her bike had gone to heaven.” Mom was relieved to have her daughter extricated from the bike, and spared from injury. Michelle was also very thankful to the firefighters. “They did it, and they did awesome.” Better yet, they showed up the next day to check on their patient. And, just to show Naya that firefighters are OK after all, they brought her a new “princess” bike with a matching helmet. “It was just a wonderful gesture,” said Michelle. “I didn’t know people still did that.”

Pipeline concerns expressed Citizens discuss Kinder Morgan plans Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

Panelists at an information meeting about the proposed Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion expressed concern about what they say has been a lack of public consultation on the issue. They encouraged those attending the meeting Wednesday night at University of the Fraser Valley in Abbotsford to band together to stop the expansion of the Trans Mountain Pipeline. “The only way it’s going to stop is by the power of the people. The corporations have big pockets. They are running the show,” said Eddie Gardner, elder and member of the Skwah First Nation of Chilliwack. The Trans Mountain Pipeline, built in 1952

The company is seeking approval to twin the pipeline – increasing the capacity from 300,000 to 850,000

barrels a day – which would result in many more oil tankers passing through Burrard Inlet to carry oil to destinations in Asia or the U.S. Speakers at the meeting in Abbotsford said this expanded capacity increases the risk of spills and pipeline ruptures, leading to detrimental impacts on

human health and the environment. Abbotsford’s John Vissers, a board member with Zero Waste BC and Resilient Communities Canada, referenced the spill in January of this year at Kinder Morgan’s tank farm on Sumas Mountain. Although the 110,000litre spill was contained

to the Kinder Morgan property, residents in the nearby Auguston neighbourhood experienced nausea and headaches from the toxic fumes, he said. “These people thought their lives were in danger,” Vissers said. He said Kinder Morgan did not respond to residents’ concerns in a timely or thorough manner, and citizens should demand that public hearings be held in each community impacted by the planned pipeline expansion. Adriane Carr, a Vancouver city councillor and former leader of the Green Party, encouraged citizens to lobby their municipal politicians to push for consultation on the issue. Continued on A7

Cheryl will not be forgotten

ineteen-year-old Shawna had just gone to bed, but she heard her father answer the early-morning phone call to the McCormack home. There was panic in his voice. It was Tuesday, Dec. 20, 2011. The call had come from a friend of Shawna’s younger sister, Cheryl, who was away at a sleepover. Cheryl had taken ecstasy, and was having a bad reaction. Shawna, who has an innate ability to remain calm in chaotic moments, hurried to the home with her mom. Cheryl was unconscious on the floor. Her jaw was clenched shut and her lips were blue. Shawna tried to open Cheryl’s mouth, worried that she had bitten her tongue, and tried to rouse her, but she remained unresponsive. One of the friends called 911. Shawna and her mom sat on the floor beside Cheryl. “It’s OK. You’re going to be OK,” they told her.

female cousins– also sisters two years apart – and the two families often vacationed together. Last summer, Cheryl was ecstatic when she learned to water ski. She was particularly excited about graduation this year, and already had her grad date lined up, and her gown ordered.

Cheryl was rushed to the hospital, her body temperature was 43 degrees C (normal is 37), and her heart rate was 197. She was placed in a medically induced coma while doctors tried to reduce her body temperature with ice packs and ice blankets. At one point, it looked like Cheryl would survive, although she had suffered damage to most of her internal organs, including her kidneys, lungs and liver. But by Thursday, Dec. 22, nurses were having difficulty finding her pulse. Cheryl’s parents, sister, aunts, uncles and cousins came to her bedside. They watched the monitor as the beats of Cheryl’s heart grew weaker, until there was one steady, flat line. Their loved one, with so much hope and promise before her, was gone at only 17.

Cyclist scams drivers

Man alleges he’s been hit, demands money Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

The Abbotsford Police Department is warning the public about a cyclist who alleges he has been hit by vehicles and then tries to scam money out of the drivers who are supposedly at fault. Const. Ian MacDonald said police are investigating three such incidents involving the man, who also has nine claims with ICBC involving the same circumstances. The 58-year-old man cannot be named,

because charges have not yet been laid against him. But MacDonald said police believe there could be many other unreported incidents. He said it is hard to believe that drivers could have been responsible for at least 12 separate incidents involving the same cyclist. McDonald said a typical scenario involves a driver leaving a parking lot when the cyclist seems to appear from nowhere, screaming and with his bike on the ground.

He then claims to have been hit by the vehicle and demands that the driver pay him cash or he will report the incident. The drivers have claimed they did not hit the cyclist, but MacDonald said fraud charges have been difficult to prove against the man because the victims typically haven’t had witnesses to support their version of events. He said the man has about 90 “negative interactions” with police on file, mainly as the subject of fraud

complaints. These include allegations that he has sold advertising in a magazine that doesn’t exist or that he has harassed people who refuse to pay. MacDonald said in the cycling scam the man seems to be targeting women drivers over the age of 50 who are alone in their cars. He suggests that anyone who encounters the man get contact information immediately from witnesses at the scene and report the incident to police (604-859-5225), as well as to ICBC.

Request for consultation

From A4

Vancouver council recently passed Carr’s motion that a letter be sent to Kinder Morgan, requesting that the company consult with the city about any plans and any application it makes to the National Energy Board. Abbotsford Coun. Patricia Ross, speaking to The News, said

she plans to present the same motion to Abbotsford council. Vissers said the public has no reason to support the expansion. “This is the plan of industrialists who come through and wipe their boots, while they are collecting their profits.” Other panelists at the meeting were Ben West of the Wilderness Committee; Mary

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Problem panhandlers

Are you concerned by Kinder Morgan’s plan to increase pipeline capacity?

Now all the city needs is cameras at every single intersection, starting with South Fraser and Ware. Someone could get really injured with all the petty criminals running yellow lights.

To answer, go to abbynews.com

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Adam Roper

Should panhandling be banned entirely in the city?

So, now will they take care of the dude that approaches women in their cars? Or at ATMs? He has been around 6+ years. Brian Bell

284 RESPONDED:

Now they need a sign put up at SFW and Gladwin.... why not just put them on all the intersections!

YES: 83% NO: 17%

The penny and the farthing Pauline

Buck

At Home I don’t usually offer an opinion about the finer points of either a provincial or a federal budget. And this year was no exception until I heard a coin collector being interviewed about the negative side of the loss of the penny. When he said generations in the future won’t know what a penny is, or will have difficulty figuring out that a nickel is five pennies… five what? …. my ears perked up. I was reminded of my first trip to London in 1965 and the challenges their currency presented. Pounds, shillings, half pennies (oh sorry – haypennies) and if I remember correctly it all worked on a denomination of 6. This was before Britain switched to a decimal system that is at least a bit easier to calculate even if they did retain their pounds, shillings, pence etc . In 1965 I was the ripe old age of 18

and travelling in Europe on what I love to say was on my parents’ honeymoon! In March of that year my mother had re-married to a wonderful Scotsman who had been a confirmed bachelor before “we” came along. Not only had George never been married, he was completely inexperienced (OK – naïve) in the wily ways of teenage girls. It took me no time at all to convince him and my mother that it would be much better for them if instead of going to Europe for a honeymoon as planned, they stayed home and I went. They could have the run of the apartment uninhibited by me, and it would be way more economical. (I sure knew how to get to a Scottish heart!). So I won that round. (But not many more. George wised up pretty quickly.) That July I jetted off to London where I met up with the tour bus that took a load of adventurers on a trip of 40 days and 40 nights to 9 countries of Europe. It was one of those whirlwind jaunts where “if this is Tuesday, it must be Brussels.” And it was wonderful. I saw fabulous sights, drank amazing beer and made a friend that I still keep in touch with. I only had to call home for

money once. Currency issues in Europe were fairly simple. The Euro hadn’t been created yet, but I was able to figure out each country’s coinage without too much trouble. I could even convert it to US dollars with some degree of

For each purchase I made, I held out a handful of silver and asked the clerk to pick some. accuracy. But England was a whole different story. There was no way I could figure out their money. When we returned to London from the Continent, I instantly became like the stupid tourist. For each purchase I made, I held out a handful of silver and asked the clerk to pick some! I was staying at the Overseas Visitors Club in Earl’s Court and down in the

bar I used to spread out my coins and ask for lessons. Nothing sunk in. On the second last night before leaving London I went to see the film My Fair Lady. (Probably paid double to get in!) Part way through the movie Professor Higgins says about Eliza Doolittle something like “she isn’t worth a half a farthing.” Well, that was the end of me. When I got back to my room I spread out all my coins again and went looking for a farthing. I didn’t remember having one or hearing about one, but possibly I had missed it. Finally, it was back to the bar to ask someone to show me a farthing! After the laughter stopped, they told me farthings had been discontinued years and years ago! Now I’m thinking about my great grandchildren. One day they will upload to their film-watching device (whatever that may be) a period movie circa 2011 and in a meaningful moment of the story the hero will say to the heroine, “a penny for your thoughts.” What????

letters Good career move

As the BC Liberals and Conservative party both are tied at 23 percent of the vote, it can be argued that a vote for the Liberals are a vote for the NDP. I am both surprised and comforted that this tie has happened, and I believe I will now vote for the Conservative party. I am with Van Dongen on this, good choice and brilliant career move. He has foreseen the Liberals going down the way the federal Liberals have and jumped from a sinking ship. And why not, we the voters haven’t forgotten the HST, and BC Rail still has unanswered questions. I urge all Liberal supporters to take out the garbage this election day, and get on board with the Conservatives! Dave Hillyer

Panhandling pays Your recent story on the panhandlers problems in Abbotsford reminded me of an article I saw on a TV documentary a while back on the same subject. The show illustrated how a good panhandler can make about $400 a day. Now you do the math on that and figure out how much a month they are taking in. And, that is tax free. It's no wonder they panhandle. Why

would they go and get a real job when panhandling is their job? I recently saw the Gladwin Road panhandler get a $5 bill and when he thought no one was looking, took a wad of money out his pocket and wrapped the $5 around it. Like my father used to say, a wad of money that big would choke a horse. It's up to you, but I will not contribute to panhandlers. Larry Harris

has pleaded guilty to assault. Const. Adam Page, 38, received one year probation and a conditional discharge, meaning he will have no criminal record if he has met all his conditions by the end of his probation. Page was sentenced Thursday morning in Abbotsford provincial court. Judge Rory Walters said the conditions will include Page taking some form of counselling, which could include anger management, if his probation officer feels it is necessary. Page has been with the Abbotsford Police Department since 2004, mainly as a patrol officer. He was moved to front-desk duties after the assault came to light in April 2010. He is now subject to disciplinary action, which, under the provincial Police Act, could include a reprimand, retraining, demotion in rank or even dismissal. The assault occurred on Sept. 20, 2009 after police were called to a store in West Oaks Mall in the 32700 block of South Fraser Way. A loss prevention officer reported that a man had shoplifted an electronic toothbrush, valued at about $100. Video of the assault was played in court, but could only be seen by the judge. Neither the suspect nor the loss prevention officer reported the matter to the APD. Instead, it was brought forward internally. The judge ruled that Page must also apologize to the man.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW before you call any electrician To ensure you are contacting the right electrician, consider this...

10:00- 11:30am or 7:00 - 8:30pm Presented by:

Professional Wealth Management Since 1901

1 2

Focused or Filler: Most electricians prefer new construction or big projects and consider

3

Invoice Overload: This is what happens when you get a ‘ball-park estimate’ or are charged for ‘time & material’ and the electrician gets paid more the longer he takes to complete the job. At Blue Crest Electric we take exception to this practice. We show you the guaranteed exact amount you’ll pay before the project begins. In most cases we will even provide several cost options so you can choose what is right for your budget.

4 5

Don’t have the parts: Other electricians do not stock their trucks like we do. This usually results in 2, 3 or even 4 trips before your problem is fixed and is all added to the time charged on your invoice. Blue Crest Electric trucks are stocked with more parts so we can fix your problem the first time.

home renovations and repairs an interruption to their day. At Blue Crest Electric we focus on the homeowner. We love home renovations and take great pride in our installations. Our broad scope of knowledge and experience means that troubleshooting and problem solving are our specialty.

Appointments:

Most electricians don’t make actual appointments. Instead, they say something like, “I’ll be there Tuesday” or “some time next week”. Meanwhile you waste a lot of time waiting, wondering if you should risk going out in case he should show up. When you call Blue Crest Electric for an appointment, we arrange for our actual arrival time so you can go about your day with the least amount of inconvenience, and we keep our appointments. Guaranteed.

Guarantees:

Ask other electricians if they guarantee their work, and for how long, and you’re likely to get a blank stare or you should be informed of their ‘concrete guarantee’ which lasts as long as they are standing on your concrete driveway. At Blue Crest Electric, your satisfaction is 111% guaranteed. If you’re unhappy with our work for any reason, we’ll redo it. Free. We want you to be more than just 100% satisfied. We want you to tell your friends good things about us.

the a ALL WORK PERFORMED TO YOUR COMPLETE SATISFACTION BY RELIABLE, TRAINED AND EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL PROFESSIONALS.

Abbotsford News

Shane Toy was honoured for his clean-up efforts in the city by Mayor Bruce Banman (right) and Heat president Ryan Walter.

Shane Toy doesn’t like litter. And for the past 11 years, the local man has dedicated himself to cleaning up the city, one bag at a time. Shane picks up trash every day from the city streets. He walks, sometimes for hours, cleaning as he goes. With a bag and a pickup stick in hand, he does his part. “I go anywhere my legs take me,” he said. He said it keeps him busy and lets him enjoy the fresh air.

Award-Winning Dishes!

Shane is participating in the Abbotsford C o m m u n i t a s Supportive Care Society’s employment service program. Communitas – a nonprofit, faith-based social services agency, associated with the Mennonite Central Committee – provides resources to persons living and dealing with mental, physical and/ or emotional disabilities. Jonathan Goertz, of Communitas, has worked with Shane for five years, and said he’s become well known in the community. “A lot of business owners know him now and call him by name,’ said Goertz. Shane also picks up bottles to make a little extra cash. His litter pick-up is strictly voluntary, although Goertz said some people show their appreciation financially. On Wednesday, the City of Abbotsford paid tribute to Shane’s efforts. Mayor Bruce Banman officially thanked him at city hall, presenting Shane with a certificate and gifts. “This proves one person can make a difference,” said Banman. Also on hand for the ceremony was Abbotsford Heat president Ryan Walter, who also praised Shane and gave him Heat memorabilia as a thank you. After the ceremony, Shane was still beaming, having been the recipient of so much attention. “It was exciting. I’ve never had this before. It was nice.”

are I say it, spring has finally sprung! The season for new beginnings and transformations; it`s that wonderful time of year when we start peeking our heads outside to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. The gorgeous hanging baskets are ready to be hung along the streets of Historic Downtown Abbotsford. The trees are in bloom, the grass is getting greener and the days longer.

D

Of course, part of my and many families’ Spring rituals is the dreaded Spring Cleaning. Hemingway`s New and Used Books on Essendene offers a great alternative to tossing your used books, as they launch their Spring Cleaning Campaign. Dig out those books and head to Hemingway’s to sell, trade or recycle them. Abbotsford Community Services will be taking to the streets on April 18, from 2-4pm, with their Clean ACSion event. Show your community you care by helping to clean up the streets. Who can resist strolling through the charming back porch at Creekside Country Home Décor! I`m excited to announce it will be opening for the season during their Spring Open House on April 28th. Featuring garden items and plants, it`s the perfect place to find a whimsical garden ornament like no other. As you stroll through the picturesque streets of your Historic Downtown Abbotsford, grab yourself a coffee or bubble tea and take some time to browse the unique shops and boutiques; you are sure to find Spring behind every door.

Odd Couple with a twist

A17

Female version of play performed in Mission Divorce is no laughing matter, except in Neil Simon’s comedy The Odd Couple (the female version) running April 27 through May 13 at Mission’s Opening Nite Theatre. As in Simon’s original male version, the audience can watch the two mismatched roommates – one a hopeless slob, the other an obsessive neat freak – attempt to survive three weeks together in a sweltering New York apartment, without driving each other crazy. Olive Madison (Joy Roberts), herself divorced, asks her newly separated friend Florence Unger (Camille Knight) to move in for awhile, just until Florence gets her life sorted out. Their friendship begins to unravel and the same traits that

“I’m really drawn to Neil Simon’s sliceof-life approach to his

plays,” explained director Kathy Yewell. “He’s able to see the humour in sad, even desperate situations, like the break-up of a marriage, and turn it into an entertaining story to which many of us can relate.” The show runs April 27 through May 13 (on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m.) at Opening Nite Theatre, 33223 N. Railway Avenue in Mission. Tickets are available at Murdoch’s BookShoppe (33078 First Ave. Mission) or at the door. For more information, email openingnitetheatre@ hotmail.com

The Reach Gallery Museum Abbotsford’s online photo archives has reached 9,000 images thanks to a $6,000 grant from the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre at the University of British Columbia Digitization Program. Since launching in March of 2011 the archives has grown from 3,000 to 9,000 images. It is fully searchable by 25 different categories, 18 different communities from Bradner to Sumas and by decade starting with the 1880s.Photos on the website were donated by local residents and newspapers including the Abbotsford News and cover all aspects of Abbotsford history. Students and individuals regularly access the photos to learn more about their own history or just to see images of the past. The Reach has received a grant this year to continue digitization and is working to reach 16,000 images by the Spring 2013. To fund this initiative, The Reach has partnered with Magnuson Ford Drive One for UR Community to host a fundraiser on May 19. More information on the event is available at www.thereach.ca.

7 Things You Must Know Before Putting Your Home Up for Sale This Spring Abbotsford - A new report has just been released which reveals 7 costly mistakes that most homeowners make when selling their home, and a 9 Step System that can help you sell your home fast and for the most amount of money. This industry report shows clearly how the traditional ways of selling homes have become increasingly less and less effective in today’s market. The fact of the matter is that fully three quarters of homesellers don’t get what they want for their homes and become disillusioned and - worse - Ànancially disadvantaged when they put their homes on the market. As this report uncovers, most homesellers

make 7 deadly mistakes that cost them literally thousands of dollars. The good news is that each and every one of these mistakes is entirely preventable. In answer to this issue, industry insiders have prepared a free special report entitled “The 9 Step System to Get Your Home Sold Fast and For Top Dollar”. To hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report, call toll-free 1-800-478-1805 and enter 1000. You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Get your free special report NOW to Ànd out how you can get the most money for your home.

Top line scorching hot

Smiles

Sylvester-Byron-Kolanos trio unstoppable over last seven games Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News

The Abbotsford Heat are the hottest team in the AHL’s Western Conference at the moment, and the genesis of their current streak coincides with the formation of a new top line. In the wake of a 6-1 home loss to the San Antonio Rampage on March 24, head coach Troy Ward shuffled his forward units. He had little to lose by rejigging the lineup – the Heat were, at the time, the AHL’s lowestscoring outfit, mustering just 2.37 goals per game. Ward ended up slotting leading goalscorer Krys Kolanos alongside a pair of diminutive speedsters, centre Paul Byron and left winger Dustin Sylvester, and the trio found instant chemistry. It’s no coincidence the Heat are 6-0-1 since their union – the team is averaging 4.57 goals per game during that stretch, nearly double its previous level of production. Kolanos, in particular, is playing out of his mind – he’s posted 18 points (11 goals, seven assists) and a +12 rating during his current seven-game points streak. He collected a pair of AHL honours this week – the league’s player of the week award, and the reGen/AHL performance of the month award. “They’ve been unbelievable, both of those guys,” Kolanos said of Byron and Sylvester. “Their games are firing on all cylinders, and I think the best thing is that we play with pace and tempo. When you can do that consistently in this league, you’re going to get results. I’ve got to give them all the credit.” Q Ward is a candidate for the Calgary Flames’ vacant head coaching position, according to Flames general manager Jay Feaster. “One of the people we would speak with is Troy Ward,” Feaster told a press conference in Calgary on Thursday afternoon, as he announced that the Flames and Brent Sutter had mutually parted ways after three seasons. Ward, when reached

for comment, wasn’t getting ahead of himself. “My first response is, my feelings towards Brent and his family,” Ward said. “This guy’s been a mentor to me for the last two years of my life, and a guy I respect and admire. “I really appreciate Jay’s thoughts towards our staff,” he added. “But at the current time, I’m employed to do a job down here, and that’s where my life is at and that’s where my focus is at.” Q The Heat’s last four wins have come despite the absence Continued on A28

practice. “It’s amazing – it’s still hard to believe I’m a dad,” Irving marveled. “We’ve got a beautiful baby girl at home, and my wife is doing great. I couldn’t be happier.” It’s been an exciting but tumultuous stretch for Irving, who has bounced back and forth between Abbotsford and the NHL parent Calgary Flames during the second half of the season, while balancing the stress of impending fatherhood. “It’s been tough, and obviously I haven’t really been happy with where my game’s at,” noted Irving, who posted a 4-4-1 record with a 3.55 goals against aver-

age and a .875 save percentage in the month of March. “But I feel good on the ice, and it’s coming.” Q The Heat are already assured of a spot in the post-season, but they’ve still got work to do this weekend in their final two regular season games against the Toronto Marlies. The Maple Leafs’ affiliate is in town for Friday (7 p.m.) and Sunday (1 p.m.) dates at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre, and the Heat need just two points to secure fourth place in the Western Conference and home ice advantage for the first round of the playoffs.

Grewal, Bruce UFV’s best

Kyle Grewal and Kayla Bruce were named the University of the Fraser Valley’s athletes of the year at the Cascades’ awards banquet last week. Grewal, a fourthyear power forward, helped the UFV men’s basketball team to a breakthrough season which included a Canada West silver medal and a fourthplace finish at the CIS national championships. He averaged 14.6 points and 7.1 rebounds per game during the regular season, and finished with a 35-point, 14-rebound performance in the national bronze medal game against St. Francis Xavier. “Kyle has really developed into an allaround student-athlete, as he has brought his grades up to an ‘A’ average, to combine with his national recognition on the court,� Cascades men’s basketball coach Barnaby Craddock said. Bruce led the UFV women’s volleyball team to a similar breakthrough – her Cascades finished second at the PacWest provincials and won bronze at CCAA nationals. Bruce was named the PacWest women’s volleyball MVP as well as the conference female athlete of the year. “Kayla’s stats shine brighter than most in the country,� said UFV women’s volleyball coach Dennis Bokenfohr. “She has a very strong work ethic when it comes to training hard consistently in practice and is a role model to her teammates.� Colton O’Neill (men’s soccer) and Krista Hogewoning (women’s volleyball) were named the Cascades’ rookies of the year, while Alexa McCarthy (women’s basketball) won the outstanding community service award for the second straight year. Bethany Whitehead (rowing) was the recipient of the Jen Simpson Award, while

the rowing team won the President’s Shield for the highest team grade point average. 2011-12 Cascades team MVPs Basketball: Kyle Grewal (men), Tessa Klassen (women) Golf: Aaron Pauls Rowing: Bryan Siemen, Scott Micona, Mat Morrison Soccer: Sasa Plavsic (men), Chelsea Steffen (women) Volleyball: Trevor Nickel (men), Kayla Bruce/Jenna Evans (women)

Adding Value and Influencing People Part 5 Angelo Rea B.Th., M.T.S. Area Manager DIGNITY FUNERAL HOMES

Being a community funeral home gives us the privilege of serving other people. When someone walks into a funeral home, they have mixed emotions. People can have strange ideas about funeral homes and funeral directors. When I tell someone what I do for a living, I find it intriguing listening to the response I get. Funeral Homes are not a common place that people like to be associated with. Most people think we work with the dead. In fact, we work with

the living that are hurting and need the care and influence of a compassionate person who understands people. Funeral directors do give value to the families they serve. Going through a crisis alone is never comforting. Knowing that you have individuals that have a servant’s heart is important. Putting service above self is the call of duty for each Dignity Memorial Funeral Home. The difference is the service that we provide and our involvement in the communities we work in.
