Ktunaxa host The next Sullivan mine? Qat’muk event
It’s early days yet, but preliminary testing has identified a gravity anomaly north of Moyie Lake that could contain lead, zinc and silver similar to the Sullivan
The location of the proposed Jumbo Glacier Resort is of profound importance to the Nation
SALLY MACDONALD Townsman Staff
A Toronto-based resource company has identified what it describes as a “very promising” gravity anomaly north of Moyie Lake that is similar to the Sullivan Mine deposit. PJX Resources announced on Thursday, October 24 that gravity tests done on its Vine property earlier this year indicate an area about two kilometres by four kilometres and between 500 metres and 1,500 metres deep that could contain lead, zinc and silver. “It showed that there was this denser material – it appears to be denser – at depth.
It appears to be somewhat flat lying,” explained John Keating, PJX’s president. “When you put that together, the geophysical company (Excel Geophysics) was thinking that it looks like it could be a sulphide-type deposit. The Sullivan is a massive sulphide that is somewhat flat lying.” It’s too soon to know for sure what the dense material is, but it’s made more promising because another company drilled in the same area in 1990 and 1994, finding massive sulphides – lead, zinc and silver – at about 700 metres deep. “Those (drill) holes inter-

area.” The next round of gravity tests, expected to be conducted next month, will isolate parts of the property that are more dense, and at what depth it is. Then next year, PJX hopes to obtain permits to drill on the property. “We use the word Sullivan to say that’s the type of target we are looking at; it’s that kind of style of mineral deposit,” said Keating. “We don’t know what it is, but gravity itself shows density changes in the rock.”

Nov 6 at 7:30
or the past 50 years Judy Collins has thrilled audiences worldwide with her unique blend of interpretative folksongs and contemporary themes. Originally trained in classic piano Judy Collins made her public debut performing Mozart’s Concerto for Two Pianos at the age of 13. But it was her father’s introduction to a wide variety of artist including Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger that eventually sparked Judy’s love of lyrics. In 1961, Judy Collins released her first album, A Maid of Constant Sorrow and began a thirty-five year association with Jac Holzman and Elektra Records. Over the next 50 years Judy released 49 albums often interpreting songs of fellow artists including the social poets of her time Bob Dylan, Phil Ochs and Tom Paxton. In 1968 Judy Collins released her Wildflowers album which won a Grammy for her rendition of Joni Mitchell’s “Both Sides Now” and was subsequently entered into the Grammy Hall of Fame. In 1975 Judy’s version of “Send in the Clowns” a ballad written by Stephen Sondheim won song of the year at the Grammy awards. Judy has continued an impressive musical career with an extensive catalog from every decade throughout the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and up to the present. Now 71, Judy Collins continues to create music of hope and healing that lights up the world and speaks to the heart.

Have a safe Halloween RCMP give tips to enjoy and stay safe this October 31 Townsman Staff
‘Tis the season for ghosts and ghouls! But beware: with Halloween fast approaching the safety of your children should be foremost. RCMP are providing safety tips to keep in mind before heading out for your Halloween festivities. Around the house Many people enjoy transforming their homes into eerie scenes. Be sure to keep the path leading up to your door free of obstacles for the little ones, especially those with masks and limited vision. Keep pets indoors on Halloween to protect them from hazards and to protect ‘trick or treaters’. Before you light those candles in your pumpkin, consider using safety glow sticks. Nothing says creepy like a glowing jack-o-lantern. Costumes It is important to remember that when helping a child pick out a costume or when choosing one for the grownups, safety should be top of mind. • Wear a light-coloured or bright costume, reflective tape or arm bands to heighten visibility. • Wear a costume that is properly fitted to reduce the chance of tripping on it. • Select a costume that is constructed from flame-retardant materials. • Make sure your vision is not restricted. Consider completing your costume with make-up rather than masks. Masks may require that the eye-holes be cut larger for the sake of good peripheral vision. • Shoes should fit properly even if they do not go well with a costume. • If a child’s costume requires the use of props, such as a flexible-plastic sword, make sure the sharp tip is cut or filed round. • Glow sticks are also an excellent method to increase a child’s visibility. You might want to consider creating a fun necklace with string to ensure they will want to wear them as part of their costumes. • Accessorize with a flashlight. Talk about being ‘street smart’ before your children go out • Before the kids hit the streets, it is important that parents be aware of the route that their children plan to follow. • If you are unable to take them out yourself, consider asking another parent, an older sibling or babysitter to do the honours for you. • Ensuring your child is wearing a watch also allows you to establish an agreed upon curfew. • Teach your children to recognize the places along his/her route where they can obtain help: a police station, a fire station or any other well indicated public place. • Stay on the sidewalks. If there is no sidewalk, walk on the left-hand side of the street facing traffic. • Don’t jaywalk. • Stop and check for cars before crossing the street. • Discuss with your children what they should do to call home in case of emergency. • Do not go inside houses and do not get into vehicles. • Only visit houses that are lit. • Stay away from animals you are not familiar with. • Vandalism is not just a ‘trick’ – it is against the law and has consequences. Bring your treats home Although tampering of loot is rare, remind children that they must have their candy inspected by their parents or guardian prior to eating them.

In ‘My Story,’ she discusses not only how she survived her horrific ordeal, but also how she has been able to live a rewarding life after the event. Scaredy Squirrel fans will find all sorts of comical tricks and treats in ‘Scaredy Squirrel’s Prepares for Halloween.’ Preschool Story Time this Wednesday at 11 a.m., 1:15 p.m., and 6:30 p.m. will be all about Halloween! Due to enthusiastic response, Toddler Story Time now has two sessions on Friday: one at 10 a.m., and one at 11 a.m. Please note the 11 a.m. session is simply a repeat of the 10 a.m. session. 45 in 45 returns! 45 Books in 45 Minutes is a fun, frenetic event where each reviewer gets exactly 1 minute to review a favourite book. The timing is absolute. If the reviewer tries to talk longer they should expect to get subjected to good-natured heckling by the audience. By the end of the evening all participants will leave with a list of 45 titles to read during the winter. 45 Books in 45 Minutes takes place on November 1 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the Manual Training School at the Cranbrook Public Library (1212 2nd Street North).

Learn about composting at garden workshop The final session in the free One World gardening series will be held on Saturday, November 2 in Kimberley and Cranbrook Submit ted
The last One World garden workshop of the season will be held on Saturday, November 2 in Kimberley and Cranbrook. The 6th and final workshop in the One World Garden Series, Can-Do Composting, is coming up Saturday, November 2, from 10 a.m. to noon in Kimberley, and from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. in Cranbrook. We’re planning a very hands-on experience this month, so if English is not your most comfortable language, it will be manageable to follow this workshop and in the case of chilly weather we’ll all keep warm! In Can-Do Composting, we’ll be learning what kinds of things we can do to get our composts ready for winter and how to keep composting despite the cold weather. A compost in your backyard is an incredibly beneficial nutrient source for your garden – and it’s a great way to reuse ‘waste’ from your kitchen and yard. The best part about it is that it’s free! This process is simple and relatively easy when you know the tricks to keep things on track. “At this time of the year there are certainly some people out there, myself included, who are overwhelmed with an out-of-control compost after a season’s worth of feeding it,” remarked Shannon Grey Duncan, project coordinator. “This workshop will be a great chance to bring up troubleshooting questions for our
experienced local mentors to help with.” The goal of this workshop series is to increase the local capacity for growing food by offering a place where immigrants or people new to gardening can learn more about growing food locally while gaining hands-on experience and exchanging skills with local members of the community. This is the final workshop in our six-part series, and it has been really wonderful to share a season of gardening with many participants since June. “We’ve been fortunate to have different guest garden mentors at each workshop, and this one will be no exception,” said Jessica Windle of Wildsight Kimberley Cranbrook. “The wealth of local knowledge is inspiring and the garden is a great place to learn and share, as well as meet new people and get to know our local community gardens.” The Kimberley workshop will be held from 10 a.m. to noon at the Kimberley Community Allotment Garden, located on Wallinger Avenue beside Coronation Park, and in Cranbrook from 3 p.m to 5 p.m. at the Public Produce Garden in Eric McKinnon Park. The workshops are free but require registration. To register, in Cranbrook email cranbrookfood@ gmail.com or call 250-427-7981; in Kimberley email shannon@wildsight.ca or call 250-427-2535 ext 223.

Gravity testing uses an instrument that is placed on the ground and uses GPS to position itself. Then it tests the density of the ground beneath it.
IMPORTANT NOTICE Canadian Pacific Railway will be replacing the railway crossing in Cranbrook at 3rd Street NW starting on Monday October 28 ending on Friday November 1, 2013. The crossing will be open to regular traffic on Monday October 28 and Tuesday October 29, but will be closed to all traffic on Wednesday October 30 and Thursday October 31. Motorists wishing to access the Industrial Park during the closure should use either the King Street North or the 6th Street North railway crossings. The City of Cranbrook and the CPR apologize for any inconvenience this project may cause.
“Foam is a certain density, wood is denser. When you get to rock like sediments, they have a certain density, and massive sulphides are much more dense,”
explained Keating. PJX has also identified a second area where density is present, called the Fors and Smoker area west of the Vine property. Keating said PJX plans to conduct more testing in that area

once it has finished testing on the Vine. For now, the 1990s drilling makes the Vine anomaly an exciting prospect, he went on. “Since we have these two drill holes that sit on the edge of it, it doesn’t confirm that it is massive sulphide, but the correlation is that it could be really good potential. But we have to test it. We don’t know for sure. But it looks like a very good target. It’s very promising.”

Fundraiser helps Kimberley resident hit by double whammy Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff
A fundraiser will be held in Kimberley next month for a former resident who was a victim of the High River floods, and has since had a liver transplant. Raymond Jenks, 48, was born and raised in Kimberley and moved to High River, Alberta, a few years ago, explains his mom, Myra. But when the devastating June floods hit High River hard, Raymond lost all of his belongings. “He was on the second floor and they had to come and take him out with a loader. They loaded people out from their decks and put them in a dump truck and took them to higher ground,” said Myra. Ray and his girlfriend were living in temporary housing in High River until October 3, when a phone call in the middle of the night told Ray that the liver he had been waiting for was available. Ray had been suffering from liver disease for several years and was unable to work for two or three years prior to the operation. Since the operation on October 3, Ray has been in the Intensive Care Unit in Edmonton. “He ran into some difficulties. He’s going to make it but it’s been a long road,” said Myra.
Once Ray is out of hospital, he will need to stay close by for at least three months in Edmonton. “They will have to stay for three months, maybe more, depending on how he recuperates. They have to monitor him and there is a lot of adjusting with medication,” said Myra. “That’s why we are doing the fundraiser for him. He doesn’t have an
income, and they are going to have to pay for that.” Together with family and friends in Kimberley, Myra is organizing a fundraising event at the Kimberley Elks Hall on Saturday, November 9 starting at 7 p.m. There will be a silent auction, a 50/50 draw, and live music by Sketch and Friends. Any funds raised will help Ray during his recovery.
Last Saturday, Cranbrook RCMP responded to a report of a vehicle fire at a campsite near Jaffray. The vehicle on fire turned out to be a white 2007 Dutchman travel trailer. Once police got there the trailer was completely burnt at site 11. No injuries were reported. Prior to the fire, witnesses said there was a woman associated with an older model light blue pickup truck and
lime green travel trailer who was seen within the campsite. “Currently it is unknown if said female is related to the fire or has any knowledge of same,” said Cst. B. Lucas from the local detachment. RCMP are requesting any person with information on the incident, or anybody else who may have witnessed the incident to contact them at 250-489-3471 or anonymously at Crime Stoppers: 1-800-222TIPS (8477).
B.C. considers booze sales in food stores Tom Fletcher Black Press
The B.C. government’s liquor policy review has heard a ‘loud and clear’ message that people want the convenience of buying alcoholic beverages in grocery stores, says the MLA in charge of the review. With a three-month consultation period ending Oct. 31, Richmond Steveston MLA John Yap said Tuesday that about 80 per cent of respondents want the extra convenience that is routine in U.S. grocery stores. But Yap is proposing a less convenient model, a “store within a store” that would have separate space and staff for alcohol purchases. He said the number of outlets could be restricted to
the current level, with some existing private or public liquor stores moved into grocery stores. The Liquor Control Board of Ontario has announced a similar pilot project, with 10 “express” stores to offer limited selection inside or next to grocery stores. Nova Scotia also has government liquor stores located in grocery stores. When the B.C. consultation began in September, Yap noted that beer, wine and spirits are already sold in rural grocery stores. He was critical of the U.S. model, saying it could lead to increased health and safety issues from increased consumption, as well as law enforcement problems. B.C.’s medical health officers
have called for a freeze or reduction to the number of private retailers, a $3 minimum price for bar drinks and higher prices for drinks with more alcohol content to deter over-consumption. The Alliance of Beverage Licencees, representing pubs, bars and private liquor stores in B.C., isn’t happy with the idea. ABLE BC executive director Ian Baillie said the province already has more than 1,400 government and private liquor stores. “The government also needs to consider what the impact of allowing large grocery chains to sell liquor will be on the thousands of jobs and millions of dollars of income that are provided by the current system,” Baillie said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
ipso facto, a Roman. I somehow doubt it. But nationality doesn’t appear to be anything permanent these days. In English football there is a furor erupting because one genuine, born English player thinks (out loud, to the chagrin of others) that English teams assembled for international competitions should contain only true English-born players. This started, I believe, because a young soccer star presently playing in Manchester was born somewhere in what was once called Yugoslavia and raised in Belgium, and can legally play for Kosovo, Albania and probably Croatia, plus Belgium if he chooses, and will be able to play for England after he’s lived there for five years. What kind of nationality is that, I ask? When I say I am Canadian, I am thinking about the East Kootenay, not the rest of the huge country. As one friend said years ago, “I wouldn’t care if the Atlantic Ocean washed up on the shores of the Rockies,” and I was inclined to agree with him. But, should we be threatened by some foreign power ambitious to take over running the place, I’d definitely stand side by side with my neighbours to fight them off. I enjoy being Canadian. It’s a marvellous country to live in. My governments are total crackpots but I’m sure I wouldn’t want any others. Mind you, as Bertrand Russell said, “I would never die for my beliefs because I might be wrong.”

Ice take upgraded defensive corps into Red Deer TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor
With guys like Sam Reinhart, Jaedon Descheneau, Luke Philp, and now, Tim Bozon, the Ice have a forward group that has proven it can score. However, with youth and injuries on the blue line, the defence got a major upgrade with the addition of Landon Cross and Rinat Valiev, which brings some more experience and maturity to the team. So far, they’re making a good impression on their fellow defensive teammates. “They have tons of skill,” said overage rearguard Jagger Dirk. “Obviously, it’s different from where they came from, so it’s going to take a little while for them to get used to our systems and then to buy into that, but I think we’re really good on the back end.” Fellow blueliner Landon Peel agreed. “They’re two great guys coming in. They’re two different players, I’ll say that,” Peel said. “Valiev, he’s more of an offensive guy, got tons of skill and, for sure, once he gets more comfortable, he’ll be a lot better. “Crosser, he’s a big guy, not afraid to get in the corners, get a little dirty, and I’m sure he’ll protect our zone and stay at home.” Both are still adjusting to their surroundings; more so for Valiev, who has to deal with a bit of a language barrier as the Russian is still learning English. He is used to North American culture, though, spending last year in Indiana, while playing in the USHL. However, his natural skills do a lot of talking. “He’s very patient with the puck,” said Dirk, “and he has that ability where he can slow the game down and guys won’t come to him and he can make a good play or get a shot on net, and not many guys have that, so it’s definitely a good thing.” Cross is a big 6’2” 19-year-old, while Valiev is a year younger and stands an inch shorter, and both aren’t shy
about playing physical, which adds another element to the defensive corps with the absence of Tanner Faith, who is still out indefinitely with an upper body injury. “With Faither out, two big guys coming in really helps our back end and not only are we skilled, but now we’re a lot bigger and we can crash and bang a little bit,” said Peel. Also, their presence now forces rookies Troy Murray and Jordan Steenbergen into earning their ice time even more. Murray has suited up for every game so far in the season, while Steenbergen has gotten into half of the 15 games so far. “It helps push the rookies that want more minutes, because they have to prove to the coaching staff that much more, that they deserve it,” added Dirk. Kootenay is heading into Red Deer for a midweek contest against the Rebels on Wednesday night, and will be facing a desperate team that is looking to end a fourgame losing streak. It will be their third meeting of the season, as Kootenay lost their earlier two games to open the new 2013 campaign in a home-and-home series in late September. Brent Sutter’s squad plays with a physical edge, and has an aggressive forecheck that will keep the Ice defence busy. “I think that’s Red Deer’s identity, but we got a skilled team,” said Peel, “which means we got to work that much harder to get to position better and get the puck moving up ice. “It’s always tough going into Red Deer, but that doesn’t mean anything. You expect them to always come out tough, and even though if they’ve lost four in a row or won four in a row, I think they’re going to come out hard, no matter what.” NOTES: The Ice-Rebels game on Wednesday is one of three Kootenay games that will be broadcasted on ShawTV this season.

Flames lose Giordano, Stempniak to injury DONNA SPENCER Canadian Press
CALGARY - It was going better than expected for the Calgary Flames, but the loss of their captain as well as one of their top forwards has thrown a dash of cold water on the team. Captain and No. 1 defenceman Mark Giordano is out for six to eight weeks with a broken ankle. He took a shot off the right ankle in the second period of a road game Los Angeles Kings on Oct. 21. The Flames revealed the severity of his injury Tuesday. “It’s brutal,” Giordano said. “You don’t want to miss any
time, but if you have to you’re hoping it’s something not as significant as that time frame.” Another shot broke a bone in the foot of winger Lee Stempniak last week in Dallas. His status is week to week. The lower right legs of both Flames were encased in plastic walking casts Tuesday. “I feel like the team is playing well and to not be a part of it is tough,” Stempniak said. “The swelling is going down so hopefully it’s not too long.” Just above .500 and without a loss in regulation at home so far this season, the rebuilding Flames (5-4-2) were giving their fans reasons for opti-
mism. An unexpected bonus has been the performance of 19-year-old forward Sean Monahan, who is among the league’s rookie scoring leaders with six goals and four assists in 11 games. But for a team without stars and a squad that requires maximum effort to win, the Flames will have to drain their tanks for victories, particularly if Stempniak is out long term. Giordano and Stempniak were tied for third in points on the team with nine each behind Monahan with 10 and Jiri Hudler with 13. It’s likely Giordano won’t
return to the lineup before his predecessor as Flames captain, Jarome Iginla, returns to Scotiabank Saddledome on Dec. 10 as a member of the Boston Bruins. With defenceman Chris Breen day to day with an abdominal strain, the Flames had just six healthy defenceman Tuesday. Head coach Bob Hartley didn’t seem to be in a hurry to summon reinforcements from Abbotsford, B.C. Calgary hosts the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday and the Detroit Red Wings on Friday before departing on a four-game road trip.

A business without advertising gets you no customers.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Note the back-and-forth tug between risk-taking and following the status quo. You might waver less than other signs do, but you will remain sensitive to the different undercurrents. Through understanding your nature, you will take a risk. Tonight: Try to relax. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) A brainstorming session could trigger even more of your high energy. You might decide to pursue an unusual course. Recognize your boundaries, but also note the ease with which you can break down one of these barriers, if you so choose. Tonight: Take a midweek break. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might want to hang close to home. Consider making your office more comfortable or try working from home. You see life differently from how many people see it. Be willing to try a new approach that might achieve the same goal. Tonight: Stay centered.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You naturally stumble upon the right words. Keep the lines of communication open. When you decide which way to go, share your ideas with a trusted associate who is able to visualize different issues and scenarios. Tonight: Express your creativity around a special friend! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Be aware of your spending in a situation that has implications. Listen to your instincts; they will guide you. Your sixth sense points to an opportunity. Even if you make an error, you somehow will turn it around. Tonight: No one knows how to have a good time like you do! VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Take advantage of all your supporters, especially if you want to start a new project. You can do it! Remember that. Be willing to let a younger person know more about the specifics. He or she will give you strong feedback. Tonight: Act like the world is your oyster. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) The less said, the better. A boss
Tundra
or someone you look up to has a very different image for you, which he or she would like you to fulfill. You might not be able to satisfy this request. At the present moment, maintain a low-key image. Tonight: Get some much-needed rest. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your sense of direction points you to getting feedback and support from others. News from someone at a distance puts a smile on your face. A visit or a trip to or from a dear friend seems impending. Make a call to this person soon. Tonight: Go for exactly what you want. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Tension builds because others have expectations that you do not want to meet. You could feel stuck. You must weigh the pros and cons of a decision. A partner or family member might guide you in the direction of accepting a new responsibility. Tonight: Go till the wee hours. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) If you experience some discomfort with several situations, detach. You must have a favorite
way of distancing yourself from trigger issues. Use it. Reframe the issue at least several times. Recognize that your perspective is not the only one. Tonight: Put on some great music. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Relate to key people directly. You could be delighted by someone’s openness. You might be able to relate far more easily without “in-between” people. Use caution when making a money decision, especially if there is high risk involved. Tonight: Out to dinner with a loved one. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Others seem to be unable to contain themselves around you. They keep testing your boundaries. Sometimes these people can be very charming, yet at other times, they can be testy and difficult. Tonight: Make sure that you are ready for tomorrow.

Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I am retiring at the end of the week and am worried. I have been married for 27 years to my second husband. For the past 24, he has not once touched me, said “I love you” or displayed any affection. He is a good stepfather to my children and a wonderful grandfather, but there is absolutely nothing for me. I am a very social person, but he is happy reading or working in our garden. When we do something together, it is invariably what he wants to do. We go where he wants to go and eat what he wants to eat. I feel I have let life pass me by. My marriage vows said “until death us do part,” so divorce is out of the question. Will I be able to find happiness in retirement? I’m dreading it. -Is There Hope for Me? Dear Hope: Since divorce is not an option, please use your energy to carve out your own life within your marriage. Assert your independence, and do some things just for yourself. Join a book club, choir, theater group or political organization. Volunteer your time at a children’s hospital. Take a trip with friends. You also might find it beneficial to get some counseling, with or without your husband, to help you navigate the rest of your life in a way that brings you some type of happiness and satisfaction. It’s not too late. Just take the first step. Dear Annie: What happens if you invite your son’s classmate to his birthday party, and the parent gives you a list of things he’s not allowed to eat -- not for health reasons, but for religious or moral ones, and the kid wants to eat them anyway? For example, what if the family keeps kosher, but the kid wants the non-kosher hamburgers? Or the parents are strict vegans and don’t want their child to eat anything with meat, milk or eggs, but the kid doesn’t care and wants the hot dogs and birthday cake? Do I forcibly keep the child away from the unapproved food? Or do I say, “My house, my rules”? -- Gary, Ind. Dear Gary: We know it can be difficult when you feel you are catering to a wide swath of food restrictions, but the parents’ rules apply. You must tell the child, “Sorry, but your parents said you aren’t allowed to have that.” Of course, it would be a kindness to serve something that all the kids can eat, and it’s not as complicated as you might think. Ask the parents for assistance. And if you cannot accommodate the child’s requirements, please inform the parents ahead of time. They may prefer to pack him his own food or not send him. Dear Annie: This is in response to “Tired of Poor Customer Service.” I have been in customer service for 30 years. I have been cussed at, threatened, had food thrown at me and worse, all the while with a smile on my face. I love working with the public, but the public needs to remember that I am there to provide a service. I’m not your slave. I deserve to be treated with respect the same as you. I don’t respond well to rudeness and demands. I will help any way I can, but if I can’t get you what you want, don’t blame me, swear at me and tell me I’m stupid. It is not my fault that you lost your job, your marriage is failing, your car broke down or your dog died. I am sympathetic, but don’t take it out on me. I agree that customer service is becoming a thing of the past. But, dear customer, take a look at yourself, as well. Would you want to be treated the way you have treated me? A smile, a kind gesture and a positive attitude go a long way on both sides of the counter. -- Still Smiling in Indiana Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

In Memoriam
Owen was born in England on June 13, 1929 to Maggie and Herb Sherratt. He moved to Canada when he was 6 weeks old. He was raised in Coleman, Alberta. He worked with his dad at the Red and White General Store in Coleman and learned to butcher, which served him well in later years. He moved to Cranbrook on his own to start work at CPR at the age of 15. He continued to work for the railroad for the next 41 years and retired in 1985.
Drivers/Courier/ Trucking
DRIVERS WANTED
Owen and Muriel bought their dream property in the early 70’s at Kootenay Lake in Boswell, BC. They spent many years making it into a beautiful place for all family and friends to gather. They moved permanently out to the lake in 1992. While they loved the lake, Owen thoroughly enjoyed almost 20 years of being a snowbird, going south to enjoy their winters in California. It was in 2007 that they returned to Cranbrook as age and health were catching up to both of them.

Owen Sherratt, 84, passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 24, 2013 at the F.W. Green Memorial Home where he was staying temporarily while recuperating from a fall he’d had a few weeks earlier.
He spent more than 4 decades in Cranbrook. It was during this time he met and married his best friend Muriel (nee Wallace) in 1951 and then shared the next 60 years with her. All 5 of their children were born and raised in Cranbrook. Owen spent countless hours as a member of the Fraternal Order of the Eagles and was their secretary treasurer for more than 20 years. He was very proudly inducted into the Eagles Hall of Fame.

Owen was predeceased by his wife Muriel in 2011 and spent the last year and a half surrounded by many good friends at Joseph Creek Care Village.

He will be missed by many.
