‘Horror movie’ attack warrants minimum seven-year sentence, court told

Boyfriend urged to kill woman’s ex Dan Ferguson Staff Reporter

Bradley Wade Charters was manipulated by his girlfriend into attacking her ex-husband with a knife, a Surrey Provincial Court sentencing hearing heard. Charters, 48, was originally charged with attempted murder for the bloody May 1, 2010, assault inside a White Rock house in the 15800-block of Goggs Avenue. Following a two-day preliminary hearing in

December of 2011, Charters pleaded guilty in January to the lesser offence of aggravated assault. At his sentencing hearing before Judge Paul Dohm on Monday (June 4), Crown prosecutor Liane O’Grady said Charters should serve seven to nine years in prison, while defence lawyer Craig Sicotte argued for a less severe sentence of two years less a day. Charters, a skinny, frail-looking man with flecks of grey in his hair, sat quietly as the

prosecution and defence lawyers both told the judge that Charters was enthralled by his girlfriend at the time of the attack. Her exact motives remain unknown because she committed suicide by a drug overdose a few months after the attack, but there was some speculation it might have something to do with life insurance, the hearing was told. In her submissions, O’Grady said the woman convinced Charters to carry out the

attack by telling him her ex-husband had committed a serious transgression involving one of their daughters. O’Grady did not disclose details of the allegations, but said there was a police investigation of the claims and no charges were ever laid. She asked the judge to use only initials to identify the husband as “F.C.” and the daughter as “A.” when writing his decision, to see page 2

‘Weather the storm’ cops told Jeff Nagel Black Press

A leaked memo from RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson has warned the Mounties will soon be rocked by more revelations of officer misconduct on the heels of the crisis over the transfer to B.C. of a disgraced officer from Alberta. The force’s head said Sgt. Donald Ray – internally found guilty of sexual misconduct with ❝They’re now female officers but not fired and bracing for reportedly set to something work in a federal even more RCMP office in horrible than Surrey – engaged has hit them in “outrageous behaviour” that so far.❞ put a “sad stain Rob Gordon on our reputaSFU criminologist tion” and resulted in understandable concern from the provincial government. Paulson’s May 28 email warns members of the force across Canada that more recent and historical cases will soon surface in the media containing “salacious and troubling details of member misconduct” that will bring more criticism. He urged them to “hang in there” and “weather this storm” while work see page 4

Police investigate at the scene of a near-fatal stabbing in White Rock two years ago.

No history of violence: lawyer from page 1 spare them from the “whiff ” of the unproven accusations. Whatever the alleged offence was, O’Grady said it was enough to incite the normally mild-mannered Charters into lurking in a dark room with a can of pepper spray and a knife when his girlfriend invited the ex-husband over. When F.C. arrived, Charters emerged from a dark side room, wearing goggles and gloves. He sprayed the husband in the face with pepper spray and stabbed him over and over in the back and abdomen. “It’s something that could come out of a horror movie,” O’Grady said. The only reason the victim survived, O’Grady said, was because he was suspicious about being invited over after three months of no contact. When F.C. pulled up at the Goggs Avenue house, the man called his oldest son on his cellphone to let him know where he was. And though Charters tried to break the cellphone to prevent F.C. from calling for help, O’Grady said the wounded man was able to hit redial. The call went to his quick-thinking son, who dialed police. The victim was in so much pain, O’Grady said, that he wanted the police who arrived to shoot him. The wounded man spent 20 days in hospital and was unable to work for

another two months. “It’s only happenstance that this was not a murder,” O’Grady said. In his written victim impact statement, F.C. said he still suffers pain and numbness. “I don’t know why he thought he had the right to take my life,” the man said. His four children have suffered severe emotional fallout from his near-murder and the suicide of their mother, the man added, and he is concerned about their long-term prospects. F.C. attended the hearing, but did not speak. A court-ordered psychiatric assessment rated Charters intelligence as borderline, and his personality as passive and easily manipulated. He has a history of being taken advantage of by people, including his few girlfriends, O’Grady said, but that does not excuse what he did. Charters had “free will,” O’Grady said, and he should have exercised it to refuse his girlfriend’s demand. Sicotte argued for a lesser term, saying his client pleaded guilty and was used by a girlfriend who had a track record of manipulating people, including her children and ex-husband. Charters has no previous history of violence, Sicotte noted. “He’s never won a fight in his life.” The judge is scheduled to deliver his sentence Thursday.

news Possible reprieve on half-price cab rides for elderly, disabled

TransLink reconsiders TaxiSavers Jeff Nagel Black Press

TransLink is tapping the brakes on its plan to phase out its TaxiSaver program for elderly or disabled HandyDart clients after strong opposition from those affected. The transportation authority now says it will hold a new round of consultations and back off on the planned one-year timeline to eliminate the program, which offers $50 a month in taxi subsidies. “We have now heard from other users about their concerns and recognize we need to listen to more people,” TransLink CEO Ian Jarvis acknowledged last week. Residents at White Rock’s Concord Retirement Residence were among those who made their voices heard on the phase-out, in a May 21 group letter to Jarvis. “My big question is, how is it expected that any one of us who has TaxiSavers now will be able to get around?” asked resident Victoria Watkin. “We won’t be able to afford it. It’s a disgrace, really, to seniors to keep cutting things back like this.” “It’s no use complaining about it after it takes effect,” said fellow resident Anna Hayes. “It’s like the HST – once the thing is done, it’s done.” TransLink has said it plans to take the $1.1 million a year it now injects into TaxiSavers and instead invest more into HandyDart service, providing an estimated 20,000 more rides per year that way. Some of the money would be used to dispatch taxis to provide rides when HandyDart is unavailable. The original decision was endorsed by the Access Transit Users Advisory Committee. But different users have echoed the objections of the Concord residents, arguing TaxiSavers were more flexible than booking a HandyDart ride, which must be done two days in advance and often cannot guarantee an arrival

Seniors from Concord Retirement Residence are among those protesting the planned elimination of TransLink’s TaxiSaver program. time or a return trip – or even that it can accommodate a request at all. When it comes to responding to health issues the service is simply not adequate, Concord residents and other critics say. And they predict that will lead to more stresses on local emergency services if TaxiSavers are no longer an option. Hayes, who suffers from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, said she developed a lung problem over Christmas that required her

to use TaxiSaver coupons for multiple trips on short notice. “The first clinic I went to was closed, which meant a separate trip to another clinic, and then another trip to the pharmacy for a prescription – you cannot get HandyDart for (those kind of trips),” she said. “HandyDart doesn’t come on weekends or holidays, and there’s no way you can get to a clinic or to the doctor’s at a time like that. “I tried to get HandyDart this

Saturday so I could attend the funeral of a very good friend, and they couldn’t take me.” Users fear the new system may end up being more expensive or that they may face more pressure to take regular transit. Watkin said she relies on TaxiSavers and HandyDart services to get to meetings of her macular degeneration support group. But the phase-out will also affect their basic quality of life, Concord residents say. Catherin Butcher said she’d like to be able to travel to the White Rock Legion to do volunteer work but “HandyDart can’t get me there or get me back.” More than 18,000 HandyDart trip requests were denied last year because the service was oversubscribed and that problem has worsened this year. TransLink will reconsider how best to use the money that has been going to TaxiSavers. “Investing in HandyDart service is the right thing to do, and this will help us serve more people,” Jarvis said. “We understand that there is a growing need to provide more public transportation options for people with disabilities and special needs.” The coupons for half-price taxi rides were being stockpiled by users, resulting in a growing liability for TransLink, and officials said there was no way to prevent reselling to unauthorized users. But Concord residents have a suggestion in that regard – crediting users HandyDart cards with both their regular fare and TaxiSaver credits. “That way… you have your I.D. and payment all in one,” their letter to Jarvis states. “Fare-sharing is prevented and only those approved for this service use this service.” TransLink’s phase-out plan was to have included stopping the sale of TaxiSavers in August and to stop honouring them next June. - with files from Alex Browne

Dog-control bylaws pass White Rock’s proposed new animal-control and ticketing bylaws have been adopted. Citing an interest in not delaying the legislation any longer, council gave unanimous support to the rules at its May 28 meeting. Escalating fines for dogs running at large, significant fines for animal cruelty and an increase in the number of dogs allowed per household, from two to three, are among changes incorporated. The bylaw now also includes rules against owning exotic animals. Much to the chagrin of dog owners who’ve been pressing the city for dedicated off-leash space, the bylaws do not open that door. Prior to the vote, one woman asked council if any of them had taken note of comments from the recent waterfront survey, from which she said “the number-one most reported comment was to allow dogs on the waterfront.” In discussing the bylaws, Mayor Wayne Baldwin noted he met with members of the environment committee May 25, where concern was raised that a stipulation allowing dogs on a stretch of west beach “would encourage dogs to use the beach west of Bayview Park to the detriment of the environment.” Baldwin said he was advised the Fraser River Estuary Management Program (FREMP) may not approve. He asked staff to look into the issue, but encouraged the vote on the final reading to go ahead, noting an amendment to the bylaw could be made later if the province confirms it presents a problem. Getting a response on the matter will take “months,” he said. “I’m just not sure if those are concrete concerns.” - Tracy Holmes

Task force suggestions aim to ease ‘oh-the-parking’ stigma

Waterfront parking ideas ‘far too extravagant’ Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Two dozen suggestions for improving White Rock’s waterfront pay parking situation – including tunnelling into the hillside to construct a parkade – have been referred to city staff for further input. But it will be at least three more months before changes, if any, are implemented. Following a lengthy presentation May 28, council voted to have staff review the bulk of recommendations from the Mayor’s Pay Parking Task Force for timeline and cost implications. Once that is received, council will hold a planning session before bringing the matter back for public discussion in September. “I would like to see more and I would like to hear more from staff, and I would like to see cost, because cost is going to be the essential item in this,” said Coun. MaryWade Anderson. The task force was established in February to look into the issues, following a call by

the Business Improvement Association to shortening the peak-season hours, as would eliminate winter parking fees. the sale of off-season, non-resident parking The city currently charges $1/hour Nov. 1 decals, Blume said. through Feb. 28, and $3/hour for the balance BIA president and owner of Slainte by of the year, with peak-season the Pier, Jack Sixsmith, prerates in effect until 2 a.m. ❝There is not one business dicted that if the task force’s In presenting their find- on Marine Drive that does recommendations were ings, task force members implemented, positive results suggested consistency in the not fear the off-season.❞ would be seen immediately Jack Sixsmith seasons and hours would go a and jobs saved.

Other task force suggestions included encouraging TransLink to improve the scheduling of its waterfront routes, and working with the Semiahmoo First Nation to make their parking lot part of the solution. While the task force’s efforts were roundly commended, Anderson said she felt the suggestions were too much for the seaside. “I don’t think this is the time to do it, quite frankly,” she said. “The report is good, but it’s far too extravagant, and it doesn’t suit, in my opinion.” Coun. Al Campbell described the majority of suggestions as “very doable.” He saw “no advantage,” however, in adding the SFN lot to the equation. “We have no control of it and I know it will become an issue later,” he said. That recommendation, along with the suggestion council work with TransLink, was referred to the mayor.

Another bad move for RCMP here has been much outrage over the RCMP decision to ship a Mountie who abused his position as head of a polygraph unit in Edmonton to B.C. Don Ray exposed himself, had sex with subordinates and kept a well-stocked liquor cabinet in his crime lab. He has admitted to seven allegations of ‘disgraceful conduct,’ in all, between 2006 and 2009. Details of sexual liaisons and inappropriate conversations with co-workers suggest that at that time he committed the offences, Ray saw nothing wrong with his behaviour, and that it was ‘serial and repetitive,’ as the prosecutor in his disciplinary proceedings termed it. In most workplaces – particularly those funded by the public purse – it would be understandable for such an employee to be summarily dismissed. Ray’s punishment for all of this, however, was to be demoted to sergeant from staff-sergeant, to lose 10 days pay and to be transferred to B.C. For most people, assurances from Deputy Cmsr. Craig Callens – who has taken over as the top Mountie in B.C. – that the disgraced officer will work in one of the force’s “federal or national areas of responsibility,” and that he will be closely monitored, simply don’t cut it. From a public relations perspective, the punishment handed Ray, and his subsequent reassignment, are like spraying a wasp nest with insect repellent – in the middle of the day. The B.C. public is extremely cynical about the RCMP (as an organization) right now. This is the result of a number of factors and incidents. Among the most notable: a widespread perception that some men within the RCMP systematically harass female members and civilian workers; the Tasering death of a confused Polish man at the Vancouver Airport; the case of the Mountie who left the scene of a fatal accident and fortified himself with vodka; and the shooting death of an unarmed prisoner at the Houston police detachment. Callens says things are changing – but this transfer tells people they aren’t. Coming on the heels of renewal of the RCMP contract in B.C. for a 20-year period, it’s too much for many. The vast majority of Mounties are upright, honest people whose devotion to the force’s goal “to serve and protect” is obvious. It would be hard to believe that most of them aren’t as disgusted with the decision in regard to Ray as the rest of us are. It’s even harder to imagine that the RCMP brass who made the decision couldn’t see the terrible public optics.

So far this week you’ve said… yes 48% no 52% 91 responding that establishes an online system for disputing traffic tickets. Police will print out tickets from their cars instead of hand-writing them, and drivers will have an alternative way to argue about whether they really ran that red light. Fighting a ticket in court now takes seven to 18 months, tying up judges, court registry staff and police. An administrative system won’t keep them all out of court, but the government hopes to reduce the average resolution time to 90 days and save $8 million a year or more. A similar administrative system is being established for small civil claims and strata property disputes. Some legislation is to fix earlier screwups. A judge tossed out B.C.’s most heavy-handed administrative penalties for failing a roadside blood-alcohol test, so the government brought in a new version that allows for another administrative appeal. The mistake of making transit operate on a poorly policed “honour system” goes back to Social Credit days. There is finally a system to enforce collection of fines, on those rare occasions when someone is ticketed for taking a free ride. Even with the last-minute rush, four bills couldn’t be rammed through. Since the legislature will almost certainly have to be recalled to impose a contract on teachers this fall, the government would do well to provide a couple of weeks for orderly debate at that time.

I’m prepared to take my penalty Editor: I have contacted the RCMP, city hall and everyone I can think of to have something done with regard to speeders on 8 Avenue near Hall’s Prairie Elementary. Under pressure, the city installed flashing lights at both ends of the school zone, with some reduction in speeders 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., however, many of them have fallen back into their old heavy-on-the-gas habit. Heading east, there is a tree blocking the school-zone sign as well as the flashing lights. It took a total of three calls to the Surrey road-maintenance department to have this addressed, including my last call where I stated: “Forget about it. I will take my chain saw and remove the tree myself, as it appears school zones and children’s safety is not a issue.” The next day I noticed someone had painted the tree where I suppose it was to be cut. Interestingly, the spray-paint person did not have a saw in the Surrey truck. Well that resulted in at least having the tree trimmed. However, the spray-paint marks have now been on the tree for 1½ weeks, so I will be firing up my chainsaw asap and looking after it myself. And regarding the speeders, I will be doing a test run at the 30 km/h school zone from both the west and east directions to the school driveway and note how long it takes to cover these lengths. Then I am selecting the correct size of rocks, and will be standing in the school driveway timing the drivers. Anyone who gets to the recorder spot faster than what I have timed will be introduced to a rock hurled at their vehicle. I fully understand that this may be breaking the law. I am prepared to take my penalty and then ask the authorities: “What about the speeders?” I understand the RCMP may be busy doing other internal things, abusing female members, having sex acts in the RCMP office, Tasering a person at the airport, lying in court, killing a motorcycle driver then leaving the scene and never being charged with that offence while remaining on full pay for four years. Does anyone have the guts to clean house? Man, try any of these actions as a common person and see what happens. Anyway, the RCMP are out of control and out of our control, so I will be directing my energy to the speeders. Maybe I will see you in the press. Oh, forgot – the press sells tears, not smiles. Fred Somers Sr., Surrey

Insightful way to say goodbye Editor: Recently, the Peace Arch News carried an obituary for Shirley Kathleen Weldon. What a wonderful way of looking

at things. The way it is written, in the first person, is truly inspired. One wonders if this was the lady’s idea or that of her family. Either way, I was intrigued by the approach. I was particularly moved by the passage, “Some might say I suffered from Alzheimer’s. But I didn’t. Those who loved me suffered; I simply ebbed.” What an insightful way to look at things! Thank you for sharing this family loss with so many people and thereby teaching them something of great value. Bill Holmes, White Rock

Rough landing, but worth it Editor: After many months of blood, sweat and tears, my family and I recently received our permanentresidents papers since our arrival from England in 2007. Twice, the school district tried to remove my now seven-year-old boy, Harry, out of school – once they

succeeded – due to issues over my work permit, issues that should not have been there in the first place if Service Canada was not such a mickey-mouse outfit! At this point, I contacted MP Russ Hiebert’s office for help. They were most helpful and were completely disgusted with the treatment I received. They forwarded my letter of complaint to the Minister of Immigration. I David Gadeke soon received permanent resident a call from the head of Service Canada apologizing for the poor service I’d received. Further down the line, I was forced to contact Hiebert’s office again. This time he came to meet me in person! He was very sympathetic with my situation and helped me in a way I never expected due to the many other more important government issues he has to deal with on a daily basis. My wife and I would like to take the opportunity to say a big thank you to all the lovely people we have

met since we came to Canada. A special thank you to the people of White Rock and South Surrey who have welcomed us as if we have been lifelong residents. Friends have supported us and helped us in a fashion usually saved only for family members and not strangers from another country! Not forgetting Mr. Hiebert’s office for all they did as well. David Gadeke, Surrey

Hypocritical not to teach Editor: Last week, teachers at Earl Marriott Secondary took a pro day, but they cannot address report cards, etc. Is this not hypocritical? Maybe they wanted to discuss how the kids are suffering from their strike. Whilst I support them, I do not agree with their taking a day off. For shame! Christene Eden, Surrey Editor’s note: Teachers attended a professional-development day across the Surrey School District May 28.

A frequent visitor to Southmere Village Park, Bob Ross took advantage of a drained pond to remove others’ castoffs.

Drained pond reveals your trash Editor: My fitness routine includes walking twice around the ponds in Southmere Village Park on the corner of 16 Avenue and 148 Street. And I almost never take my digital camera with me, however, last Monday something told me to do just that and to my amazement as I came around the lower pond which is still without water, I noticed a pile of junk by the garbage bin at the southwest corner. A few steps further I met the reason for the pile of garbage, Bob Ross who is recovering from a stroke who also ‘walks the park.’ However, instead of just walking he decided to clean up this second pond. So, with Bob’s permission, my camera recorded Bob

and his pile of junk that included old cellphones, plastic cameras, kids’ shoes, several umbrellas, beer and pop cans, glass bottles… and the list goes on. On behalf of our community, “Thank you, Mr. Bob Ross,” whose one regret is that he did not do the same when the upper pond was empty. Now I wonder if it is too much to ask other users of this ‘little bit of heaven’ to keep your junk out of the ponds; we have excellent recycling programs in place, even for old cellphones. A big thank you also to the City of Surrey for resurfacing the entire walkway and hope that the grassy areas will eventually come back to life. Douglas Brown, Surrey

Cloverdale resident Todd Reid honoured by Kidney Foundation for selfless act

Providing hope for an ailing friend Dan Pearce

odd Reid would do anything for his best friend Graeme. So when he learned Graeme’s kidneys were only functioning at 15 per cent, the Cloverdale man had only one question: “What can I do?” At that point Reid didn’t even know his blood type, so he began the lengthy process to find out if he qualified as a kidney donor. “Nothing happens right away. You have to go through all this different testing and there’s things that can pop up all the way through,” Reid said. During this time, Reid was also doing plenty of research. He learned that if Graeme’s condition worsened to the point that he needed dialysis, the transplant would be less likely to succeed. “The whole way through we were trying to get it done quick so that he didn’t have to go on dialysis,” Reid said. “I know for sure with the times that I had spoke to Graeme, that that was his biggest phobia. He was deathly afraid of going on dialysis.” It had been three weeks since Reid had been to his last test, and he still hadn’t heard anything. “We were definitely at a wall at that point. Both Graeme and I were feeling just wiped from the whole scenario and just scared that it was stretching too long. What if something pops up now? Then we’re right back at the beginning. There was a lot of fear at that time,” Reid said. On June 17, Reid sent one last email asking if they had heard anything. The return email was a simple three-line message. “It basically said, ‘we’ve signed off, everything is a go and we’ve

sign up to become an organ donor. “It’s such an easy thing. Even if you can’t be a living donor, you can be a donor after you die,” he said. “You’d be surprised at what you can do. Especially when it’s for someone you love.” Last month, Reid was given the Shira Inspira award through the Kidney Stories of Hope campaign. Reid was one of five winners from across Canada to receive the award, which is given out by the Kidney Foundation of Canada. “I’ve read most of the stories on there and it’s incredible the stories that people have and the struggle they’ve gone through,” he said. “Every one of those people deserves the acknowledgment.” Reid got the call that he had won on the same day he learned his grandmother had passed away. “It was a really touching moment,” he said. “From death comes life.” Find all the stories of hope, including Reid’s, as well as information on organ donation at www.kidney.ca/storiesofhope

It was a success. The organ began working immediately. Reid sent Graeme a text after they had woke from surgery. “We did it,” the message read.

“Thank you so much,” Graeme replied. The second day after the operation, Reid, still in pain, walked from his room to Graeme’s. “I just lit up,” said Reid. “It was just a great feeling to walk in the door and see him alive and well and know that after all this battle, that it worked.” Reid encourages everyone to

business White Rock company working to kickstart Carolin Mine

Aiming to re-open mine

It’s the Sale

YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR…

Kerrie-Ann Schoenit Black Press

A White Rock mining company is working towards re-opening the Carolin Mine site near Hope. New Carolin Gold Corp. controls approximately 134 square kilometres in the Coquihalla Gold Belt, which is host to several pastproducing underground gold mines including Carolin, Emancipation, Pipestem, Ward, Aurum and numerous other gold prospects. Recent studies conducted by the company determined the property has the potential to host a multi-million ounce deposit. “With the gold price up, it makes it very attractive,” said president and chief executive officer Bruce Downing. “We already have an existing mine permit, which saves us a lot of time and money. In the world of mining today, that is a huge asset.” The Carolin Mine – 18 kilometres northeast of Hope – operated from 1981 to 1984, and closed at the end of 1984 due to poor gold recoveries, low grades and low gold prices. Ongoing logging of the property over the years has made all targeted development areas readily accessible. Thirty per cent of the previous mill infrastructure is still in place, including equipment and water. New Carolin Gold Corp. is cur-

Downing said the company could choose to mine solely underground, operate underground with a small open pit at the surface or utilize the entire area as an open pit. The ore would then be processed on-site at the rebuilt mill to create a gold concentrate, which would either be sold or used to pour doré gold bars. New Carolin Gold Corp. plans on drilling this summer to confirm historical data as well as increase gold inventory.

The company will also be conducting a preliminary economic assessment soon, followed by a comprehensive economic feasibility study to determine the cost of bringing the mine back into production. Meanwhile, Downing said a resource study has found 30,000 ounces of gold sitting in a permitted tailings pond on the property. Only 55 per cent of gold was recovered from ore during the 1980s when Carolin Mine was in operation. The remaining crushed rock was disposed of in the tailings pond.

Doodles on auction block When the Surrey Hospice Society asked, “Do you doodle?” it drew a resounding “yes” from a host of talented personalities. Oodles of “doodlers” hit the drawing board and their creative works will be auctioned off at the society’s fundraising event at Northview Golf and Country Club Wednesday. “We have been blown away by the generosity – and talent – of our contributors,” said Denise Seder, Surrey Hospice Society board director. “These are far from sketches and scribbles. Our local artists have created mini masterpieces, and some of them have even donated full-size paintings.” “It’s a great opportunity for those who would like to own a wonderful piece of original art, or fans who would love a memento from their sports hero.” More than 100 works will be up for auction. The list of donors

includes artist Robert Bateman, Canuck Alex Burrows, cartoonist Lynn Johnston, Whitecap Jay DeMerit, artist/author Nick Bantock, musician Raffi Cavoukian, Olympians Nancy Greene and Leah Pells, BC Lions Jason Arakgi and Jon Hameister-Reis and Global TV new anchors Dawna Friesen and Chris Gailus. Local artists include Elizabeth Hollick, Judy Jordison, Karen Pohlman, Linda Steele, Patricia Peacock, Marney-Rose Edge, Wendy Mould, Richard McDiarmid, Lorraine Wellman, Marie Heath, Bert Monterona, Elaine Brewer-White and John Delaney. Money raised will support services offered by Surrey Hospice Society free of charge. The cocktail reception and auction is June 6 from 5:30-8 p.m., 6857 168 St. For tickets ($35), call 604-5437006 or email admin@ surreyhospice.com

Spirituality is defined as the human search for fulfillment and the search for meaning that arises from inner need. The dark night of the soul. Time to draw up that bucket list everyone talks about. A bucket list refers to the experiences or achievements a person hopes to have or accomplish during their lifetime, or before they “kick the bucket.� For many, the bucket list involves travelling to far-off places. Jumping out of an airplane. Running a marathon. Falling in love. For Susan, 73, the goal is “to get a closer connection with my kids.� As for me, I haven’t got a clue. Methinks there’s a hole in my bucket. So, looking for answers, I

took myself to see the movie, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel‌ for the Elderly and Beautiful. The dream of the young owner of this dilapidated hotel in Jaipur, India is to “outsource old age,â€? and what better way to begin than to welcome a group of British elders who are wounded seekers, each lost in their own private pain. The crusty, bigoted character portrayed by the magnificent Maggie Smith doesn’t want to think of the future. “I don’t even buy green bananas!â€? she exclaims. Another character laments, “We’re all old‌ we’re past it. All we’re good for is a beige bungalow.â€? But the assault on their senses which is the cacophonous Jaipur has another declare, “Nothing can

prepare the uninitiated for this riot of noise and colour. All life is here!â€? The underlying theme of the movie is fear. Not fear of dying, rather fear of living. Judy Dench’s character surmises, “Dive into it and you’ll swim out the other side. The challenge is to cope with it‌ not just cope, but thrive!â€? And you don’t need to go to India or jump out of an airplane to realize that life is a privilege. Don’t miss your life. Live it. Now. No regrets. So on my next trip to the grocery store, I’ll bypass the vegetable aisle and head directly to the ice cream aisle. No bucket required. April Lewis is the local communications director for CARP.

Meghan Palesch and Alison Williams were among the Peninsula medal-winners last weekend at BC High School Track and Field Championships, helping pace the Semiahmoo Totems to a top-10 overall finish among senior girls. Palesch led the charge with a pair of medals, striking gold in the senior girls 100-m hurdles, and adding a silver medal in the 400-m hurdles. In the 100-m event, Palesch edged Tumbler Ridge hurdler Laura Sharman by nine one-hundredths of a second to win gold. In the 400-m, she was three seconds back Meghan Palesch of winner Katharine Tourigny of West Point Grey. medal winner The double-medal performance was made even more impressive, considering Palesch had been sidelined the past six weeks with a groin injury, and only had one warm-up meet in Nanaimo prior to lacing up

“It was nice to be able to come back,” she said Monday. “I felt good, 100 per cent.” Williams, meanwhile, won silver in the 800-m for the second consecutive year, placing second behind gold medallist Ashley Windsor of Wal see page 25

It was a tough day Wednesday for the three Peninsula senior boys rugby sides at BC High School Rugby Championships in Abbotsford. All three teams – Earl Marriott and Semiahmoo in the AAA tournament and the Southridge Storm in the AA event – lost their Day 2 matchups. The Earl Marriott Mariners lost their quarter-final tilt 17-10 to their Vancouver rival St. George’s Saints - whom the Mariners beat in quarter-finals last year – to fall from contention, while the Semiahmoo Totems, who lost their first-round match to St. George’s, fell in their first consolation-round game, 24-17 to Cowichan. Earl Marriott lost their second game in the row Saturday, 17-15 to Oak Bay, to finish the tournament in sixth. Semiahmoo ended the tournament 16th, losing their final game 39-16 to Victoria’s Claremont Secondary. In the AA tournament, the 10th-seeded Southridge Storm lost in quarterfinals Wednesday, 49-5 to No. 2-ranked Brentwood College. Southridge ended up eighth overall after a 38-10 loss to Mulgrave Saturday afternoon. Marriott’s loss to St. George’s was a tough one to swallow, head coach Adam Roberts said, considering how close the game was. “We knew going in exactly what was coming. We knew it was going to be a battle, and it was,” he said. Neither team had many great scoring chances in the game, but the difference, Roberts said, was the Saints made the most of their limited opportunities, while the Mariners didn’t. “They capitalized on our mistakes, that’s all it was. We didn’t give them much, but what we did give them, they took advantage of.” The Mariners rebounded the following day with a 38-0 consolation-round drubbing of Lord Byng Secondary. Semiahmoo, meanwhile, ran up against a talented St. George’s side see page 24

Southridge Storm fourth at tennis provincials Southridge Storm’s senior tennis team set a new school record last weekend, after a fourth-place finish at provincial AA tennis championships in Burnaby. The fourth place finish was the best-ever for the South Surrey school. The Storm advanced to semifinals after beating Shawnigan Lake, but in semis fell 8-3 overall to Brentwood College. Southridge then lost the third-place game by the same score. In addition to their topfour provincial placing, Southridge also added a Fraser Valley banner to their collection, winning the regional tournament on May 10. The Storm won the banner – the second in four years for the school – with a 6-5 victory over Abbotsford’s Mennonite Educational Institute. In semifinals, Southridge dispatched Surrey rivals from Holy Cross by an 11-0 score, while MEI

beat Port Coquitlam’s Archbishop Carney to set up the championship-game meeting. Southridge got off to a quick start on the final

Rugby from page 23 in the first round, which put a snag in the team’s plans to make it into the tournament’s top four. “My goal was to make it to the stadium (for semifinals),” said coach Tom Wilson. “But St. George’s is a very well organized, very good team, and we’re just not there right now.” The Totems were also hampered by injuries. Scrumhalf Alex Klassen was out with a broken hand – an injury Wilson said affected everyone. “Alex is our top player, he’s our link between the back line and the scrum. If we had him in the lineup, we probably beat Cowichan by three tries,” Wilson said. Wilson did heap praise on a handful of his players who, due to a number of injuries, were forced to play out of position. Logan Mackie, for example, filled in for Klassen at scrumhalf, a week after filling in for another player at hooker. “He’s played four positions in the last couple weeks,” Wilson said. “It was great of Logan to step in like he did, but it’s tough to do.” Shawnigan Lake won the AAA title, while the AA banner was won by Brentwood College.

Hanna wins three medals in Grade 8/9 meet from page 23 nut Grove, who won the race by 1.94 seconds. Palesch and Willliams were two of just three Totem girls to reach the finals in any event – Rachel Cho in the 1,500-m steeplechase was the other – which placed Semi eighth in the girls competition, with a total of 26 points. That mark left them tied with Vancouver Island’s Mount Douglas and Earl Marriott, rounding out the provincial top 10. No Surrey team finished inside the top 10 in overall aggregate scores, and Cloverdale’s Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers, tied for eighth, were the lone local team to place amongst the leaders in the boys competition. Other South Surrey athletes to find themselves on the podium during the two-day meet, which was held at Burnaby’s Swangard Stadium June 1-2. included Earl Marriott’s Kathryn Van Ryswyk, who cleared the bar at 3.1-m to win gold in the pole vault, beating Oak Bay’s Rianne Craig, whose best mark was 2.85 m. “That was the highlight for us,” said EMS coach Jim Clifford of Van Ryswyk, who was also sixth in the girls 100-m hurdles. Deon Clifford, meanwhile, won bronze in the 2000-m steeplechase, just ahead of Panorama Ridge runner Nathan Goodwin, who was fourth.

It was remarkable.” Ingvaldson’s Tweedsmuir teammate Allison Gallaugher was fourth in the long jump. Elgin Park’s Max Hanna was the school’s lone medallist in the senior competition, winning silver in the senior boys javelin, throwing a distance of 53.76 m. White Rock Christian also had one medallist at provincials, as senior Jordan Watson scored a silver medal in the senior boys high jump. His best jump of 1.9 metres actually tied first-place finisher Bashir Khan of St. George’s, but Khan was awarded gold because he took fewer attempts to hit the mark. In the Grade 8/9 championships Elgin Park’s Jake Hanna stole the show, with two gold medals – in the 200-m and 400-m events – and one silver, in the 100-m hurdles. Hanna’s times in all three were enough to qualify him for nationals later this summer, where he’ll represent Team BC. Others to find the podium in the Grade 8/9 event were Elgin’s Lexi Reimer, who won bronze in the girls 100-m, and Semi’s Chelsea Ribeiro, who was second in the 3,000-m.

Peace Arch Hospital

Peace Arch Hospital PART 2 IN A 3 PART SERIES

Almost like new after surgery

Four generations of caring

I have many reasons for ‘hearting’ my hospital.

Claire Langley

A couple of years ago, I was struck by a car while walking my son to school. Whisked off to the hospital in an ambulance, I received great service in the Emergency. The doctors took good care of me, the nurses were marvelous. They bandaged me up and after some great surgery, sent me home (with some complimentary pieces inserted!) almost like new.

Over the past five years I have been a part of the volunteer team of the Peace Arch Hospital Gala steering committee which hosts the marvelous annual Gala at Centennial Arena every spring and also part of the Hospital’s Pumpkin Walk/ Run every October. Both events help to raise funds for our local hospital here in White Rock.

Marie Rougeau

When I moved to White Rock I was just 18 months old and at that time doctors made house calls. One day Dr. Waterman came to our house for a visit and literally carried my dad to his car to bring him to the hospital to have his appendix removed. This would be our first introduction to this little White Rock Hospital. When I was five, I had my tonsils removed. This was not much fun for me, but in exchange I was promised ice cream and ginger ale. I spent my stay in a crib; however I did receive a new pair of PJs and a matching house coat. During my stay I had the chance to get to know more about this wonderful little hospital. I remember being told to always be cautious of the rules: to be quiet and never run. (Hard to remember when you are only five years old!) I remember during a period of two days three of my family members had to be admitted. My Mom had to be admitted during her pregnancy with my sister and then a couple of days later I fell and broke my arm. When my dad brought me to the hospital for treatment, he had to go get my mom out of bed to help register me. I can still picture the green and orange chairs in the waiting room of the Emergency Room. My sister was the New Years baby in 1965. Boy times

have changed. I was not allowed to see my mom and only got a very quick look through a tiny window at my sister wrapped in pink. My dad was unable to even hold his new daughter till they brought her home from the hospital. Over the years my family has received amazing care at this little hospital (which has now grown), my grandfather was one of the first patients to be admitted to the Palliative Care Unit. My dad, a brittle diabetic, had cataract surgery. At that time he had to stay for about a week. My mom received phenomenal care as a cancer patient; as well both my beautiful children were born here. As a young family, thru the years we used many services of the Emergency Department, hospital and filled a few beds! I am so proud to be part of this community hospital, as a long-time contributor as a staff member since 1973. Peace Arch Hospital holds a special part of my family’s history. My mom worked as a nurse and both my children have been active members of the hospital. We are all truly grateful for all the compassion, care and friendly faces that have always greeted us here at Peace Arch Hospital.

Who knew that I – personally – would benefit from the funds I had helped to raise. Claire Langley

Consistently kind care On July 4th 2010, I went into Peace Arch with a broken arm. I was in a lot of pain and since it was on the upper arm I had a lot of problems doing anything when it came to moving around. I was met at reception in a timely manner. I then was sent to the triage nurse whom was very kind and also ordered an X-ray for me, thus cutting my waiting time in the ER to see the doctor. I was then helped again by reception to go to the X-ray Dept. After a short wait, a really nice technologist came out and took me in for an X-ray. She took her time and was very careful as the X-rays were done. Another technologist also came to help. The doctor came in a reasonable amount of time to tell me the results of the X-ray. For follow up appointments I met up with Dr. J. Kwee. He always explained to me my progress and was always kind and gentle. I should have written this a long time ago; however, better late than never. Peace Arch Hospital THANK-YOU for your consistently kind care. I have had other encounters with Peace Arch Hospital as a patient and I am very glad this hospital is in my area. Vivienne Gildenstern

OBITUARIES

AMOR, Janice May With heartfelt sadness we announce the passing of Janice May Amor on May 28 at Nanaimo Hospital, Palliative Care, after a courageous battle with cancer. She was just shy of her 56th birthday. She was predeceased by her mother and father, Dorothy and Orville Sjulstad and stepmother, Lois. She is survived by her husband, Lorne, to whom she was married for 23 years, their daughter, Katrina, and Janice’s two sons, Jeremy and Bradley (both of Surrey, B.C.), as well as her sister, Linda Clarke, of Vernon, B.C., and step-brothers, Charles (Bud) Rose of Alliston, Ontario, Tom Rose of Elmdale, Ontario, Tim Rose, of Surrey, B.C., and step-sister, Carol Snowden of Milton Ontario, and various nieces and nephews. Janice together with her husband Lorne Amor were the owner/operators of the Rocky Hill Farm located at their home on Gabriola Island. Janice also worked full time as the bookkeeper for the Village Food Market family on Gabriola. Janice was a special person as evidenced by the fundraising day held recently and sponsored by the Village Food Market family. Though she was ill, she attended this event and had a wonderful time bringing her special joy to all around her. Her final joy, just days before her passing, was in seeing her daughter Katrina going to her prom night, looking as Janice put it, absolutely gorgeous. A celebration of Janice’s life will take place at theGabriola Fellowship Church at the corner of North Road and Church Street on June 9, 2012, at 2 pm, with a reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in memory of Janice Amor to the Canadian Cancer Society.
