SLIPP sets sights on derelict docks By Barb Brouwer MARKET NEWS STAFF
Abandoned derelict docks between Salmon Arm and Sicamous, and in Blind Bay, will be removed this fall. The multi-agency Shuswap Lake Integrated Planning Process (SLIPP) is responding to public complaints and foreshore mapping, which revealed there is a large number of abandoned derelict docks in
Shuswap and Mara lakes. These structures can create safety issues for boaters, impede public access along the shoreline and reduce the esthetic values of the lake. As well, these docks can have significant impacts on fish habitat, by damaging spawning and rearing grounds through changes to water circulation patterns which are important for maintaining quality habitat. Derelict and abandoned dock removal is part of the
SLIPP shoreline restoration program and member agencies have committed resources toward finding and removing the structures. With SLIPP’s Oct. 18 announcement comes a reminder to property owners that all docks and bouys must be authorized under the Provincial Land Act to ensure they meet construction and design requirements. As well, no new dock or buoy should be installed

without checking with the Columbia Shuswap Regional District to ensure compliance with the newly adopted Lakes Zoning Bylaw No. 900. Property owners are responsible for ensuring dock structures are authorized, properly maintained and secured and, if no longer required, removed and appropriately disposed.

Bus service changes sought By Lachlan Labere MARKET NEWS STAFF
Greyhound Canada’s proposed cuts to service in British Columbia will have a nominal impact on the Shuswap. The bus service has applied to the Passenger Transportation Board to reduce services on 15 inter-city routes, as minimum daily service levels are set provincially by the board. In its application to the board, Greyhound states intercity bus passenger companies have been experiencing serious losses for the “last number of years.� Greyhound vice-president Stuart Kendrick says in B.C. alone, Greyhound lost $14 million in 2011 on the
scheduled passenger operations. “Similar losses have been incurred in previous years. These losses are no longer sustainable,� states the application. The only proposed route cut that would impact the Shuswap, however, is Greyhound’s Alberta border and Highway 1 to Vancouver route. The company is asking to eliminate one eastbound trip from Vancouver to Kamloops. In addition, Greyhound is also seeking to eliminate one eastbound and one westbound trip between Salmon Arm and Vancouver. Sicamous would not be affected. The westbound bus departs Salmon Arm at 7:30 a.m. and arrives in Vancouver at 3:05 p.m.
Chase and Sorrento are stops on this trip. This cut would leave six scheduled trips for this route, and two for Chase and Sorrento. The eastbound bus departs Vancouver at 12:30 and arrives in Salmon Arm at 9:05 p.m. To address Greyhound’s losses, Kendrick has written B.C. Transportation Minister Mary Polak asking that the industry be deregulated. Polak has said she is aware inter-city passenger bus service is at risk in the province, and that ministry staff are looking at options. “It’s obvious from what they’re saying that they need to make adjustments, or they’re going to have to pull out of the whole thing,�
Polak told Black Press. The deadline for public comments was Oct. 17. However, for the Alberta and Highway 1 to Vancouver route, interested parties have until Wednesday, Oct. 24 to submit written comments to BC Passenger Transportation Board, Box 9850, Stn. Prov. Govt., Victoria, B.C., V8W9T5. Comments may also be sent by fax to 250953-3788, or by email to ptboard@gov.bc.ca Comments must note the application number: 305-12/Routes A1,A2(a),A2(b).

House fire deliberately set Police are investigating a suspicious fire that destroyed a 10th Avenue SE home in the early morning hours of Saturday, Oct. 13. “It’s most definitely suspicious,� says Salmon Arm Fire Chief Brad Shirley, noting firefighters from Hall #2 and Hall #3 responded to the fire that was called in at 3:35 a.m. “When we deem it sus-
picious, we hand it over to the RCMP.� Sgt. Carlos Tettolowski of the local RCMP detachment confirms Shirley’s suspicion in an Oct. 15 press release. “The subsequent investigation has indicated that the fire was intentionally started and the investigation is ongoing with the assistance of the regional
fire investigator,� he writes. While firefighters were able to knock down the fire quickly, the house is a complete write-off. Police are seeking the public’s assistance in this investigation and anyone with information is asked to call the Salmon Arm RCMP at 250-832-6044 or Crime Stoppers.

Comic sees ups in downs
Lorne Elliott help people make more sense of the world and its issues. “The best jokes are always the ones that hit home,” he says, noting that while there is nothing wrong with using trivia as material, when times demand it, comedians have to address concerns of the day. “My zeitgeist is that people are getting political, and that’s a good thing

because the price of freedom is vigilance.” Other comedic material finds its way into Elliott’s well-honed, comedy-creating brain through conversation and everyday life. What he hears on tour in one town is often incorporated into the next night’s show. “It’s about making your life into something that is really engaging,” he says with a laugh. “It’s not entirely self-indulgent.” Elliot’s performance begins at 8 p.m. Tickets at $20 are available at Acorn Music. Producer Ken Smedley says a percentage of the proceeds will go towards the creation of the Annual George Ryga Award for Social Awareness in B.C. Writing & Publishing to be awarded in the spring of 2013.

CON
Iconic Canadian comedian Lorne Elliott is now ready to leave the sanctuary of his Hudson, Que. farm for the bright lights and bustle of a western tour. Fortunately, he’s heading in our direction with his new show, The Upside of the Downturn, which he will present at the Salmar Classic Theatre Friday, Oct. 26. A talented playwright as well, Elliott finds contentment on his farm and fodder for his plays and shows in day-to-day life. He has also begun to describe himself as an activist, a trait he says has been growing with age. And he sees the trend growing among other Canadians too. The funny man points out that serious issues, even when delivered with a comedic thrust, can

Friday, October 19, 2012 Shuswap Market News
OPINION Recall raises issues around food chain The massive and unprecedented recall of beef that emerged from a Brooks, Alta., processing plant should cause people to pause and think about the food chain, and how demands for low consumer prices may have a long-term effect that goes far beyond this recall. The way that meat goes from farm to the table has changed dramatically in the past 50 years. There used to be many more slaughterhouses or killing plants than there are today. There were several in B.C., including what was once called Pacific Meats and later Intercontinental Packers, in south Vancouver. There were also many small slaughterhouses. B.C. farmers and ranchers produce a large supply of cattle for the meat market each year. But for the most part, they are now shipped off to huge feed lots on the prairies for a final fattening up before being butchered. A few farmers and ranchers raise some cattle to full size and sell meat to customers or specialty butcher shops directly. In virtually all cases, this meat is more expensive— but it comes with the assurance that the end-consumer knows just where the meat originated and how it has been handled. Almost every large grocery retailer buys beef from a handful of huge plants, such as the Brooks facility. It has been estimated that up to 40 per cent of the beef sold in B.C. comes from that plant. That’s why the recall list is such a long one. Grocery chains today have to offer low prices to get customers in the door, and meat prices are among the most closely watched. A push for low prices and efficiencies isn’t a bad thing, but it should never be at the expense of good health. Hopefully, out of all this will come a demand by meat eaters for better information about the food they eat. -Kelowna Capital News

Fighting nature-deficit disorder I’ve taken to going for walks lately. In part to be a bit more fit, but mostly just to be alone with my thoughts. I like the autumn. I like all the colours and the cool, crisp freshness in the air. It’s hard to explain, but sometimes I feel a sense of longing when I see flocks of ducks and geese flying by overhead. I get a simple pleasure from listening to the sound of autumn leaves rustling in the wind and I am reminded of autumn mornings a long, long time ago when I sat in the boat with my father and watched as the morning mist rose from the surface of the lake. I remember how we would sit there quietly and listen to the sounds around us. We would listen for song birds we could not see. We would listen hard for the sound of a small gurgle on the surface of the water out there in the mist and know that it was a trout rising to sip in an insect sitting on the top of the water. I learned to cast my line to the sound of a fish rather than the sight
THE GREAT OUTDOORS James Murray of it. I learned that there is as much to hear as there is to see in nature, if you only take the time to look and listen. Sitting in the boat with my father I watched seasons change, birth and rebirth and the continuing cycle of life that is continuously happening all around you in nature. It was experiences like this that instilled in me a love of the outdoors and a respect for nature. However, I don’t think that a lot of kids nowadays really seem to have much of a connection with nature. This point is made clear in a book by Richard Louv, entitled Last Child in the Woods. The basic premise of the book is that today’s
children are so plugged into electronic diversions that they have lost any meaningful connection to the natural world around them. In his book, Louv draws a comparison to the modern term attention-deficit disorder, saying that “many members of my generation grew into adulthood taking nature’s gifts for granted; we assumed that generations to come would also receive these gifts. But something has changed… we see the emergence of what I have come to call nature-deficit disorder.” At the time, I remember reading Louv’s book with a certain amount of sadness. It bothers me that so many kids no longer relate to nature. The really sad thing, though, is that Louv is right when he points out that electronic games have replaced actual participation in outdoor activities. Too many kids would rather sit, cooped up in their bedroom, playing a virtual fishing video game rather than be sitting in a boat out in the middle of a lake breathing fresh air and ob-
serving nature. It’s been a lot of years since I last went fishing with my father. I remember our last trip together well. I always will. My father taught me that catching fish is but a small part of what fishing is all about. It is more about experiencing all the sights and sounds and smells around you, about the things in nature that stir something inside of you, that end up lingering on autumn days many years later. I cherish the memory of the conversations we had on those trips more than that of any fish I may have caught. My father taught me to appreciate all the wonders of nature, great and small, that surrounded us. I can’t help but think that his advice to young people nowadays would be to go outside for a walk, take in a big breath of fresh air and just start observing all the wonders of nature that surround you.

Confusion over food product and polish In James Murray’s column of Oct. 5 about muddy-tasting fish, he mentions kale “reduced in a wok with lemon oil.” Apparently James meant kale stir-fried in an oiled wok and seasoned with lemon juice, not lemon oil.
Lemon oil is a wood preservative and polish. Lemon oil should never be used for cooking or consumed in any manner as it is poisonous. The label is clearly marked with a skull and crossbones; however, one can never tell what sort of misinfor-
mation gets stuck in a person’s mind. Please correct this faulty suggestion just in case someone thinks lemon oil is edible and uses it in their food. Kalene Bourque Editor’s note: There are food prod-
ucts available, under a number of different brand names, which are labelled lemon oil. They are actually premade, lemon-infused olive oils. This lemon-infused oil is the product James Murray was referring to in his column.
Free telephone workshop on Alzheimer’s Researchers are giving new hope to Salmon Arm families coping with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. Already one in 11 Canadians over 65 lives with the diseases. And since age is the highest risk factor, that number is expected to soar as the population continues to get older. Advances in research are offering new reasons for optimism, though, including new tools that may allow doctors to diagnose Alzheimer’s disease earlier, and with more certainty. Families can get the latest information, without even leaving
their homes, thanks to an Update on Dementia Research teleworkshop being offered on Thursday, Oct. 25 by the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C. Vancouver geriatrician Dr. Philip Lee will explain how research advancements might translate into clinical care for local residents. The Update on Dementia Research teleworkshop runs from 7 to 8 p.m. on Oct. 25. Residents can access it via telephone, with optional online slides. Pre-registration is not necessary. A few minutes before the session, participants simply dial toll-free

A 12-year-old Blind Bay resident says he looked into his own family history for the inspiration to write the unique story that earned third prize in this year’s fifth annual provincewide Junior Authors Short Story Writing Contest. Brody Butts, the only young writer from Blind Bay in the competition, took the prize in the very competitive 10- to-13 age category. Butts’ story, Dear Me, is a series of diary entries written by a First World War soldier to himself between 1917 and 1918. “I based the story on my great-great grandfather, Pte. Gereghty, and used family stories and military records to add historical reference,” says the young author.
“The baby he is holding at the end of the story is Marie, my great grandmother.” Butts, who attends a gifted writing program at his school, was very excited about entering the contest. “This is a big achievement for me and it’s only my first year entering. I can’t wait to enter next year.” Laura Thomas, the Delta resident who launched the contest in 2008, said, “Just before I started judging this year’s stories, I decided that I wasn’t going to run the contest any more. My own work in writing and communications is leaving little time for helping young writers. But, then I read the stories and the kids are so excited and grateful for the opportunity that I decided to roll up my sleeves and figure

out what more I can do to help them achieve their dream of getting paid for their work.” Thomas, however, has made some key changes to the contest that she hopes will provide greater opportunities for young writers. She has dropped the restriction on place of residence, narrowed the age range of each category and added two new categories so the contest is now open to writers aged 9 through 20 years. She is also planning to host a one-day Junior Authors writing conference in Vancouver next fall. Through workshops and networking with industry professionals, she hopes to support and encourage the aspirations of talented contestants like Butts who dream of being paid for doing what they love.

Couple puts new face on art Two Blind Bay resident have been working overtime in a successful attempt to bring more fine art to the Shuswap region. Karen Brown and her husband Tom knew they were in for an adventure when they opened FACES last month on a whim. “So many children were missing out on the opportunity to experience fine art or express themselves creatively due to travel restrictions,” says Karen. A month after opening, the studio already has more than 100 members taking part in one of the many classes offered in art, music, dance, and voice lessons, as well as drama and theatre. The success of the program hinges on the quality of her instructors, says Karen. Mary Jackson teaches voice, piano and drama, and in the last 12 years, has taught four provincial winners in voice.
#Blind Bay residents Karen and Tom Brown are thrilled with the response to their studio. “Parents are being blown out of the water by what the children are coming away with, even just one month in,” explains Karen. Lynn Erin from the Fire Weave Art Gallery, whose work is sought after internationally, is the new art director. The studio offers a number of weekly classes and also hosts Saturday workshops. Thursday and Friday night concerts are hosted weekly in Scotch Creek, where 12 members have already joined an a cappella group with plans
to perform 1950s music. Karen is currently seeking grant money to establish a Shuswap musical company that can be offered at little to no cost. She is also looking into pairing up with local companies to produce a good quality dinner theatre. “The whole idea of the studio is that we wanted to bring something that gave the community a place to gather and explore their creativity.” Several workshops are scheduled for the months ahead.

Oh, those beautiful fall colours are starting to appear on some of our trees and I can’t wait to rake all those leaves up for this year’s compost pile! Canada has had some weird weather this year and that has had an impact on the fall colours. As well, historic patterns of when trees are at their most colourful, and how colourful, may be shifting due to climate change. Before autumn, the healthy leaves on deciduous trees get their green colour from the chlorophyll molecules in their microscopic factories, or chloroplasts, that convert water and carbon dioxide
the tree to get on with the transition, but that it can do it slowly. A sudden plunge in overnight temperatures can result in trees all changing colour at once, since their different temperature thresholds for shutting down will all be crossed. Although day length, light, temperature, ground moisture and insects all affect fall colours, scientists say that climate change might also be having an impact. They cite a trend of earlier springs and warmer autumns. Evidence shows that the growing season of the trees is being influenced each year by the climates that they experience, but scientists don’t have a good handle on whether there is a disconnect happening between trees’ sensing of conditions and the climate. Trees are genetically programmed to respond to both day length, a pattern that is not changing, and tem-

the interaction of day length and overnight temperatures. Light influences the timing, magnitude and degree of leaf colour change and the temperature threshold to initiate change can differ among tree species. Leaves at the top and outer edges of a canopy usually have far brighter colour than the leaves that get less intense sunlight. The early spring in some parts of Canada can have an impact on the process and the drought that took hold later in parts of Ontario and Quebec should lead to earlier fall colour and may be not so brilliant because during a hot, dry spell, some of that senescence would have been initiated earlier. The conditions were so hard on the trees that they began an early recapture of resources from their leaves. Once senescence is initiated, the best weather for fall colours is nice, crisp nights and warm, sunny days. The combination is a cue to

into sugars, other carbohydrates and oxygen. The chlorophyll hides the yellow, orange and red pigments present in the leaves because it is so intense. In autumn, trees stop replacing the chlorophyll in their leaves, which then breaks down, allowing the other pigments to become more and more visible. The proportion of pigments varies by species. Maples have lots of anthocyanin, for example, which gives a red colour. Scientists call this process senescence. In fall, a tree needs to recover some of the huge store of resources it put into growing leaves. A long senescence is good for the tree because it is recapturing more resources from its leaves. Large amounts of nutritive reserves must be recovered for winter storage so they can boost the array of activity which begins with new growth each spring. Trees get their cues about when to start their shutdown process from

Hormonal Breakouts? Not Just a Teenage Problem! Hormonal breakouts affect many teenagers today. But teenagers are not the only ones; acne can strike adults too - more than half of all adult women and about a quarter of adult men.
So much easier being a girl… Like most people, I too, struggle with acne… One problem I have particularly struggled with has been my jaw line and back… That’s when EstroSense entered my life and changed it for the better…After the first 3 months, my back and jaw breakouts have diminished significantly. On top of it, virtually all my PMS symptoms have almost disappeared…it’s so much easier being a girl now. Beauty Blogger Ellie S.
Many women will typically see breakouts during their menstrual cycle due to hormonal fluctuations. Estrogen dominance due to hormone replacement therapy, the birth control pill, xenoestrogens from the environment (BPA, phthalates, parabens) or a sluggish liver can also contribute to hormonal breakouts.
EstroSense is a unique natural formula that helps maintain healthy hormone balance by supporting the liver and in turn, healthy skin.

HAUNTED HOUSE 2012
Fireworks limited by law Halloween is a popular time for fireworks displays but the Columbia Shuswap Regional District wants to remind its residents that setting off firecrackers or fireworks for personal use in most rural Shuswap areas is against local bylaws. Fireworks regulations apply in Electoral Area ‘C’ (South Shuswap); Area ‘E’, (rural Sicamous including Malakwa and Swansea Point) and Area ‘F’ (North Shuswap and Seymour Arm) and prohibit the purchase and sale of fireworks in these areas. The discharge of fireworks without a permit is also prohibited. “These bylaws are in effect to protect public safety and to limit the chance of wildfires,” says CSRD Bylaw Enforcement Officer Leanne Robertson. “More than 8,000 children are injured in North America every year from fireworks and the most frequent injuries are burns to the hands and face.” Statistics show that nearly two-thirds of fireworks injuries

Off road crash
# Chase RCMP were called out about 4:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 16, after a the driver of a transport truck lost control of his rig on the Trans-Canada Highway, approximately one kilometre west of Chase. The truck ended up in the ditch on the right-hand side of the highway. As a precaution, the driver was taken to hospital, but did not suffer from life-threatening injuries. The Trans-Canada remained open, but flag persons were on scene to control traffic while the truck was removed. Cause of the accident is under investigation. Police say it is believed that driver fatigue may have been a factor.

Heat meets Steam on Oct. 20
PHOTO CONTRIBUTED
# James Northrop watches as Heat forward, Shelby Kostyshen, makes his way to the green during the Chase Heat’s annual golf tournament. The event was once again a great success, raising $1,700 for the team.
This past weekend saw Chase’s Junior Hockey Team take on the Revelstoke Grizzlies in a two-game homeand-away series. Friday night, Oct. 12, saw the two teams at Art Holding Memorial Arena. What was expected and what arrived from Revelstoke was different. A talented, hard-working squad gave it their all and ended up being the better team of the evening. The Heat opened the scoring with new acquisition Taylor Jordan getting his first Chase goal at 13:21 of the first, assisted by Dom Hodges and Shelby Kostyshen. The Grizzlies clawed back, getting a goal on the powerplay and then a backbreaker with 15 seconds left in the period. The second period was a copy of the first with Connor Venne scoring assisted by Shayne Woodland and Aiden Silzer-Hooker. In the third, Revy potted one and then Kurtis Johnson, assisted by Connor Venne, scored a highlight-reel goal, but it wasn’t enough. The Bears left with a 5 to 2 score
and a fun bus ride back to Revelstoke. The Grizzlies’ power-play marker was the first time Chase had been scored on on the penalty kill while at home. Saturday, Oct. 13 saw the two teams once again face each other, this time in Revelstoke, where the Grizzlies earned a shutout with a 4-0 victory. Unfortunately for the Heat, they lost two starters to injury, Connor Venne and Stuart Beckett. Beckett will be lost for at least eight weeks due to a broken leg. Five starters are now on the injury list. Taylor Jordan was acquired from the Summerland Steam to add firepower and grit. The Kamloops Storm visited Chase on Tuesday, Oct. 16 and provided a great game of hockey. The teams played neck-and-neck until the third period when the Storm ultimately took the lead with a 5-3 win. The Heat will be travelling to Sicamous Friday to take on the Eagles and then, on Saturday, Oct. 20, they play host to the Summerland Steam.

Gaining national recognition Safety Mart: Awarded for dedication to customers, community. Safety Mart Foods showed that being a small town business doesn’t mean you can’t achieve big things, after making their mark on the national stage, and bringing home a silver award. The 50th Annual Canadian Independent Grocer of the Year Awards Ceremony was held on Tuesday, Oct. 2 in Toronto, in front of a gala audience of more than 500 leading grocers, suppliers, and dis-
tributors at Grocery Innovations Canada 2012, Canada’s premier grocery conference and trade show. Each year, the Canadian Federation of Independent Grocers (CFIG) Awards Program recognizes the success of outstanding independent retailers and offers insights into innovations that are changing and enhancing the way retailers compete. The Canadian Inde-
pendent Grocer of the Year is the most prestigious award CFIG can bestow. Each year, independent grocery stores from coast-tocoast in Canada compete for the coveted title in each of the specialty, large, medium and small surface categories. Each of the competing stores is visited personally by a respected retail management expert, who evaluates competing stores based
on retailing excellence and innovation, store team performance, customer service, space utilization, freshness and cleanliness. This year, Chase’s hometown grocers beat the competition when CFIG announced Brooke and Linda Kynoch of Safety Mart Foods were the winners of the National Silver Award for Top Independent Grocer of the Year – Medium Surface category.
“Just as their slogan says, at Safety Mart Foods, customers are really everything,” said John F.T. Scott, president and CEO of CFIG. “For over 30 years, Safety Mart has been serving the residents of Chase and area with a dedication to customers and community that is second to none, and we are very pleased that they were recognized at GIC this year.”
category of the competition. There are more than 70 nominees for the awards, which celebrate the best in commercial, industrial and revenueproducing properties from Kamloops, Salmon Arm, Armstrong, Vernon, Kelowna, Summerland, Peachland, Penticton, Okanagan Falls, Oliver and Osoyoos. “The number and
quality of the nominations from all over the Thompson Okanagan region is simply outstanding, one of the best we’ve seen yet,” notes event organizer Mark MacDonald. “Adding Kamloops and the South Okanagan from Penticton to Osoyoos has bumped the number of projects, as those areas have not had commercial building awards before.”

THORESON, GEORGE (GIBBON) On 8 october 2012, at the age of 97, Gib spurred his last saddle bronc out of the chute and made his 10 second ride to the heavens. Born 12 Jan 1915 in Kongsberg Norway, he moved with his family to Canada in 1927 and homesteaded in the Mclaughlin, Alberta area. In 1940, he married Marguerite Spence. Gib bought grain and farmed in Mclaughlin, Ab. In 1952 they moved to Innisfree, Alberta, where he continued to buy grain and farm. Upon retirement, they moved to Gunn, Ab where they owned/ran G&M Esso. From there they moved to Edmonton, and on to Anglemont, BC. They eventually moved to Salmon Arm where they continued to reside. After Marguerite’s passing in 1994, Gib moved into Piccadilly Terrace where he resided until his passing. Gib was a champion ski jumper and won many championships around Alberta and BC. He also competed in rodeos, riding saddle broncs. In 1939/40 he rode in the Calgary Stampede. He was an avid outdoorsman and loved hunting and fishing. One of the highlights of his life was climbing the Chilkoot Pass in Alaska, with his son, Jim. Gib and Marguerite had one son, Jim, (Peggy), three grandchildren, and seven great grandchildren. A very heartfelt thanks to all the staff and residents at Picadilly Terrance where he lived; to the staff at the Vernon and Salmon Arm hospital; to the ladies at Bastion Place, and a huge thank you to two steadfast friends that stood by him throughout much of his later years and his final days – Rita Gregor and Art Wetter. At his request, there will be no service, However if his friends wish, he would be pleased if they would tip a glass of scotch in his memory.

He lived a great life and had no regrets. He loved horses and was a rodeo cowboy for years. He was a bulldogger and took home some nice buckles and saddles to show that he was good at what he enjoyed so much. In his younger years in high school he played football and after his 50th high School reunion in 2010 he was invited back in 2011 to be inducted into the Woodstock, Ontario Hall of Fame along with so many other athletes with the likes of Bobby Orr. What a wonderful achievement for the football team he so loved. As a young man he left home and moved to British Columbia from Ontario and the dairy farm to cowboy in the Interior around Watch Lake, BC and enjoyed the people and the opportunities it gave him as he developed a long lived friendship with the people he worked for at the time. He felt he needed to start a career to make his own way in the world and took up his apprenticeship as a pipefitter and plumber along with his gas ticket he did well in the trade over the years and settled in Pritchard, BC. Prior to his retirement he opened his own business as Deppers Plumbing and Heating and stayed with that until his retirement at the age of 59. He travelled and enjoyed a bunch of very nice people he had become a big part of as one of the founding directors of the North American Rodeo Commission. Reg was predeceased by his mother Violet and father Cyril, his father in-law Jim Cunningham and Jim’s wife Chloe and will be remembered by his sister Helen and her husband Stan Skube of Ontario along with their children Susan, her husband Steve, niece Madelaine, nephew Ryan and Cathy and partner Clair. He will be sadly missed by his wife Susan, stepdaughter Erica, her husband Josh, along with his stepson Ashley, his wife Leanna and his grandchildren Devon, Tristan, Kieran and Aidan, along with extended family and relatives. He shared in each and everyone’s life and was a great father figure to the kids. He lived in Pritchard for the last 42 years and loved every minute of it, it has been a great place to be. He died from Cancer and if you wish to make a donation in lieu of flowers to the Cancer Fund, SPCA or your own choice, I know he would be honoured. A Celebration of Reg’s life will be held at his home, 1727 Old Duck Range Road, Pritchard on Saturday, October 13, 2012 at 12:00 (noon). Condolences may be expressed at www. schoenings.com Ride in the wind Reg and we will meet again, I love you!

Wood Pellets Robert Babakaiff of Arro Wood Heat Services has been in business for 5 years. A 45-year resident of Salmon Arm, he believes in buying his products locally. After being laid off from Coe/Newnes, he saw there was a need for a reliable wood heat technician. He became certified in the WETT program – which is a Canadian recognized association, allowing him to be able to inspect, install and maintain wood burning stoves and fireplaces. His services include chimney sweeping, estimates and advice on purchasing and installation of wood burning stoves, such as size needed for the square footage, and the best stove to meet your needs. Robert’s motto “Burning Clean = More Green” not only refers to the money saved when keeping your stove or fireplace maintained, it also refers to the environment, as the new stoves burn cleaner and more efficiently. Repeat customers are spreading the word of his fair pricing and thorough job. For all your wood heat needs, call Robert today for an estimate.
