Changes to methadone formula coming Feb. 1 Doctors, pharmacies, agencies scrambling to get the word out to clients

BAR RY CO ULTER

Changes are coming in B.C. to a synthetic drug that is widely used to help recovering addicts. And doctors, pharmacies and agencies who help those

who use it are scrambling to get the word out. Methadone helps people who are dependent on or addicted to

other drugs like morphine and heroin. As of Feb. 1, 2014, the current methadone formula given out by pharmacists will change. British

Columbia will transition to a new methadone formula, called Methadose, which is expected to provide a safer, more consistent

treatment for patients. But methadose will have 10 times the strength of the current formula. Almost 15,000 peo-

ple in B.C. are on methadone programs — prescribed by physicians and dispensed at pharmacies. Locally, the East Kootenay Addic-

Invermere man died of hypothermia The Crown introduces the events that led to Brian Panebianco’s manslaughter trial, now underway in Cranbrook SALLY MACDONALD Townsman Staff

Cory Jarock died of hypothermia after being kicked out of a house party in Invermere in April 2012, according to the prosecution in the trial of Brian

Panebianco. The 25-year-old Invermere man is charged with manslaughter, criminal negligence causing death, robbery and assault causing bodily harm in the death of 31-year-old Jarock, who

was found deceased April 3, 2012 in the driveway of a home in Invermere’s Tunnacliffe Heights neighbourhood. The two-week trial got underway Tuesday, Jan. 14 in Cranbrook Supreme Court before Justice Kenneth

Ball and a 14-person jury, including two alternates. Crown prosecutor Lynal Doerksen began the evidence by addressing the jury.

tion Services Society (EKASS) in Cranbrook says it has about 90 methadone clients come through its office — though that doesn’t represent all clients in the region. And the changes are a cause for concern, in that methadone users may not be aware of the vastly increased strength of the new formula. “There hasn’t been much notification about this,” said Dean Nicholson, Executive Director of EKASS. “And the risk we see is because the volume of medication the people will be receiving will be increasing on a 10 to one basis. “Typically, when methadone users — or illicit methadone users; people on the street who might be getting it — they’re thinking of it in terms of millilitres instead of milligrams. If they’re buying it on the street, they’re saying, ‘I’m not getting as much liquid as I normally would,’ and they might then throw more in there. But they’re actually getting a much higher dosage of the actual drug, which puts them at risk for overdose and death. “And, obviously, the illicit street users are not going to be getting the education that hopefully people are going to be getting through supervised dispenser sites.”

Love, passion, simplicity: Lopez in concert Renowned guitarist playing the Key City Theatre in Cranbrook, Saturday, Jan. 25. Submitted

Oscar Lopez, one of Canada`s greatest guitarists, will be performing at the Key City Theatre on January 25 at 7:30 pm. Known for his intimate live performances, Oscar offers a unique flavour of Latin music that incorporates a mix of jazz, blues and pop. Born in Santiago, Chile to a middle-class family, Oscar was exposed to a wide variety of music from a young age. By age nine he began to experiment with different musical instruments, trying the violin, the mandolin and finally settling on the guitar. A “street learner” Oscar had no formal musical training and developed his craft by performing with his father, neighbours and friends at the local Pentecostal Church. By age 12 Oscar had taken a job at a local manufacturer making car antennas. The monotony of the job had a strong impact on Oscar who began to dedicate himself to his musical career. By 17 he was playing professionally and getting his

first taste of stardom with Chilean pop group The Grace of the King. In 1979, at 25 Oscar left Chile, which was labouring undering the repression of the Pinochet regime, and joined his sister in Winnipeg. Eventually making his home in Calgary, Oscar dedicated himself to his music — releasing 11 albums over a 23 year span. Professionally he achieved great success with seven Juno Award nominations, winning best instrumental album in both 2002 and 2005 for his albums “Armando’s Fire “ and “My Destiny”. Additionally, Oscar is a twotime recipient of the Hispanic Excellence Award and has been recognized as Instrumentalist of the Year by the Prairie Music Awards. But the road to success was not without its bumps for Oscar. From 2001 to 2004 he battled major depression sidelining him from preforming live and producing new music. Since breaking through his bout with depression, Oscar Lopez has rededicated himself

Oscar Lopez plays Cranbrook Saturday, Jan. 25 to his music and now lives by the mantra “love, passion, simplicity”. His live performances are an invitation to a very personal interaction between him and the audience. “My music is an extension

of my soul and life experiences,” Lopez explains. “My albums are the product of this internal and external collaboration. I revel in the thrill of watching an album take form.”

manslaughter trial

Changes to methadone Jarock thrown out of house party before death dosage coming Feb. 1 Continued from page 1

Continued from page 1 “This case is a tragic case. It’s something that didn’t have to happen and could easily have been avoided,” he said. Doerksen went on to summarize the evidence he would be presenting. He told the jury that two young women invited a group of friends, including Panebianco and Jarock, to a small party on April 2, 2012. People were drinking, Doerksen explained, and Jarock “drank an awful lot”. One of the girls asked Panebianco to deal with Jarock, who had become a nuisance. “Unfortunately, he did that in a way that is not acceptable,” said Doerksen. Panebianco assaulted Jarock, threw him outside and left him there, Doerksen told the jury, adding that the temperature that spring night reached the freezing mark. When Panebianco left the party about 45 minutes later, Jarock was still outside.

Invermere realtor Daniel Zurgilgen was called as a witness to describe what he saw when he drove down the street the next day at about 1 p.m. Zurgilgen testified that he was turning around in the culdesac on 5th Avenue when he saw a person lying on a driveway. Zurgilgen pulled over and began to approach the person. Jarock was lying on his front with his backside exposed, he wasn’t wearing shoes and his limbs were blue, Zurgilgen said. He stopped at two metres away from the man and called 911. A tape of the 911 call was played during the trial. Zurgilgen can be heard talking to the BC Ambulance dispatcher. “He’s not moving. It’s not looking good,” Zurgilgen said on the tape. The paramedic who responded also testified Tuesday that when he arrived on the scene, he checked Jarock’s vital signs and determined that he was deceased. Two RCMP officers,

Cpl. Eric Page told the court that he found traces of blood on the pavement and on the steps leading to the house, but it was too faint to be tested. The testimony continues in Cranbrook Supreme Court this week.

Methadone is dispensed in a one-milligram-per-millilitre solution that is combined with an orange-coloured drink that clients drink at the pharmacy or take away as “carries.” Starting Feb. 1 is Methadose. The new formula comes as a red, cherry flavoured solution, pre-prepared. Patients will receive the same dose of methadone, but the amount of liquid will be onetenth as much as what they receive with the current formula. A release from the Government of British Columbia on Monday, Jan. 13, noted that “it is important that the public, particularly those who are on methadone maintenance therapy, be aware of the changes and take extra caution during this transition.” EKASS is setting out to do as much public notification as possible. “Certainly through our office we’re going to be talking to all our clients who are involved in methadone use,” Nicholson said. “We assume their prescribing doctor will be letting them know, but we’ll also be letting them know. “But also, people who we know who might be inclined to illicit methadone use, we want to make sure we get the word out to them. They may not be as aware of the risk. There is a third group of methadone users — those who use it for pain relief, and not because of any

previous drug use. Methadone, in fact, was developed originally as a painkiller during the 1940s, due to a shortage of morphine during the Second World War. During the 1960s, it was found it was helpful to people withdrawing from opioid addictions, namely heroin. Nicholson said that because people who use methadone for pain relief aren’t necessarily as “drug savvy, in a sense,” they may be inadvertently at risk if they’re not being informed of the changes as well. “Often, they may be given more ‘carries’ than some of our drug-using clients,” Nicholson said. “Many of our clients who are drug dependent may have to do daily pickups. They can’t be trusted with five days worth of carries. But if you’re dealing with some kind of chronic pain issues, and you’re on methadone and you’re given a week or two weeks worth of carries at a time, and you’re a bit confused, and might combine them.” EKASS doesn’t completely manage those clients who use methadone for pain. Those clients deal directly with methadone doctors’ offices. Deb Summers, Harm Reduction Manager at East Kootenay Addictions Services, encourages clients to contact her at the office, or their pharmacist or doctor for more information.

Summer is just around the corner

Group plans inaugural multicultural festival A r n e P e t rys h e n Townsman Staff

This summer there will be a new event coming to Cranbrook in the form of a multicultural festival. Organizers are now planning for the inaugural multicultural festival in August and will meet Thursday. “We are calling all persons and organizations who are interested in participating to come forward and join us for our planning meeting,” said Lourdes Roxas-Butalid, president and founder of the Filipino-Canadian Association of the East Kootenay. The meeting is at 7

p.m. tomorrow, Thursday, Jan. 16, at the city hall boardroom. It is located at 40 – 10th Avenue South. “It has never been more important to use our cultural differences to bring people together,” Roxas-Butalid said. “Also, support for the Festival fuels economic growth.” As a partner, she said businesses would help make Cranbrook a more welcoming place for people from different origins and cultures. She also noted that volunteers, donors and corporate sponsors are vital to the success of the festival. Roxas-Butalid said

their vision is to promote cultural recognition and respect, as well as celebrate the ethnic diversity of our community. “Together, we can achieve a more welcoming city, a new stronger economy, and an empowered community,” she said. So why should the community get behind the festival? Roxas-Butalid said it will be a feel-good event. She said it’s an opportunity to link your business or group to a family friendly event with a high standard of programming, positive messaging and creativity.

“Experiencing the performing arts and delectable food at the festival empowers, inspires, astonishes, and educates about Cranbrook’s cultural diversity,” she said. “Demonstrate to your community, members, clients and employees that you are committed to making Cranbrook an even more vibrant and dynamic place to live, work and raise a family.” To register for the meeting, please contact Coco Seitz at 250-5810678 or coco.seitz@ gmail.com or Roxas-Butalid at 250-5810126 or Lourdes.roxas. butalid@gmail.com.

A tale of two potholed cities T risha Fermor, a Cranbrook-area resident, said this: “The roads have never been as bad as they are now. Potholes are a pain in the neck. “There is to nowhere to avoid them. Coming into Biddenden Road is potentially dangerous for cyclists and motorcyclists.” Trisha Fermor is actually a resident of Wilsley Pound in Sissinghurst, which — whatever type of community that may be — is in the vicinity of Cranbrook. That’s actually Cranbrook, Kent, England. Yes, in the parallel universe that Col. James Baker somehow created, they’re complaining about the potholes, to such an extent that the publication “This Is Kent” (a compilation of various Kentish newspapers) did a feature story on the subject, headlined “The Roads Have Never Been So Bad.” Illustrating the story was a photograph of a jolly English pothole, which I, in the Cranbrook in the alternate universe, looked at with amusement. You call that a pothole? Back in Kent, the villagers are calling for a crackdown on the holes, all across the Weald. The holes are a menace to the Common Weal! “If a horse was to stumble into one of the caverns that lie on Dingleden Lane on the way to Sandhurst, their leg would break,” said one parish councillor. (I wish we had more street names like “Dingleden” in Cranbrook, B.C.). This is a problem I’ve never considered, that a horse could break his leg in our potholes (in Cranbrook, B.C.). The hoofed animals that populate our Cranbrook spring gaily over our holes, or dance nimbly around them, all the while dodging the traffic. In the meantime, we’re bringing our motorcarriages into shops on a regular basis to replace our suspension systems.

A Kent County councillor says this: “The extreme wet weather will cause potholes and we have geared up to tackle this, making permanent, first-time fixes as the first choice repair process.” Must be nice — if all we had to worry about was the extreme wet weather as cause of the potholes, we’d be on easy street, no pun intended. Instead we have to worry about extreme wet weather followed by extremely cold weather. That situation doesn’t just create potholes, it creates rift valleys. This, coupled with the fact that Cranbrook (B.C.) is one of the last great towns to be built on a swamp, replete with underground streams makes us the frost Barry galore, heave capital of the westCoulter ern world, which is the real reason, I swear, that horses no longer patrol our streets. Don’t want them stepping in our potholes and breaking their legs, innit? The aforementioned parish councillor says: “The lanes around here are very thin so when the water comes down, it breaks up the road.” Really? Your quaint, delicate little streets break apart under a little rain? Our tough, hardy western streets are torn asunder by the kind of frost heave that flings up mountain ranges. That’s what created the Rocky Mountains, you know. Frost heave! I swear it’s true! Workmen from Kent Highways have been working to repair damage caused to roads in Cranbrook, Kent. The mayor of Cranbrook, B.C., said at the RDEK meeting Friday that workmen from Cranbrook (B.C.) spent as much time last winter repairing potholes as they did removing snow from our very unKentish streets. The Kentish councillor said this: “On occasion we will make a temporary repair until a permanent one can be programmed

in. We are committed to repairing these within 28 days.” Ha ha! “Permanent…” Last year I noted a very bad pothole in a Cranbrook, B.C., neighbourhood. The City came out and repaired it right away — including a full-on repatch. A few months later, a new pothole had appeared, in a different spot of the intersection, like a bad case of eczema re-erupting on a troubled patch of skin. Trisha Fermor of Wilsley Pound says: “The problem lies with Kent County Council not having enough money. Cuts have meant they just don’t have the resources to patch up the roads.” Hmmm, where have I heard that before? But since the subject has come up, I will publicly suggest here that a far more efficient use of the money spent patching up roads in Cranbrook, B.C., may be to invest in an inventory of flying cars, which could be sold to the residents of Cranbrook at cost, thus taking everyone’s minds off the Cranbrook potholes fully, completely. As for the residents of Cranbrook, Kent; if you’re not amenable to the idea of flying cars, or potholes as a rather permanent state of affairs — indeed, something to hold up as an emblem of civic pride, as I am attempting to do here, with varying degrees of success, I think — or a symbol of the awesome power of nature over which no amount of county funds can permanently fix, then I suggest replacing your community’s horses with more surefooted mules. Or, to put the above 700 words another way: Potholes? You call those potholes?

KIMBERLEY DYNAMITERS

Nitros heat up, beat Rockies 4-1 TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

After the flu decimated the Dynamiters over their weekend road trip, the team got enough healthy bodies back in the lineup to grind out a 4-1 win over the Columbia Valley Rockies on Tuesday night on home ice. Jason Richter, Darren Martin, Bryce Perpelitz and Eric Buckley provided offence for the Nitros, while Stephen Pratt scored the lone goal for the Rockies.

“In the first period, we kind of had tired legs, but as the game wore on, I thought, definitely, our conditioning outmatched CV’s for sure,” said Martin, the Dynamiters captain. In the second half of the first period, Buckley struck first on a breakaway, beating Rockies goaltender Stewart Pratt up high on the glove side with a shot. Heading into the second period, the Nitros were the first to kick off the parade to the penalty box. Tyler Kinnon was hit with a four-minute double

minor and Jared Marchi got tagged for goaltender interference, and the Rockies were gifted with a two-man advantage for just over three minutes. Stephen Pratt made good on the ensuing powerplay, scoring Columbia Valley’s lone goal to even it up at 1-1. However, the tide began to change and soon it was the Rockies who were heading to the box and the Nitros made them pay when Perpelitz teed up from the blue line and blasted a slap shot home. A few minutes later, Columbia Valley’s goaltender Stewart Pratt went down with a Nitro player on top of him. The goalie landed a couple blows with his blocker before getting hit with a match penalty and game misconduct. Martin quarterbacked the powerplay and was rewarded with a goal when he unloaded on the net at the blue line. “I think our puck retrieval was good and we had some good shots,” said Dynamiters head coach Jerry Bancks, on the effectiveness of the powerplay. “Perp’s goal was just a rocket, Marty’s was a rocket. “We need to do more of that—score from the point on the powerplay. We’re afraid to shoot, I

Richter scored on another Nitro man-advantage for a three goal lead with just over five minutes remaining in the game.

Tyson Brouwer stood in goal for the Dynamiters, making 31 saves for the win, while Pratt and Brody Nelson shared netminding duties, with 27 collective saves. Having a mostly healthy roster was a welcome change for the team after hitting the road this past weekend with a busload of sick players. “It meant a lot to have most of our play-

ers back, we still have a couple out—and we still had some playing, they’re not 100 per cent,” said Bancks. “…It’s going to be nice to get everybody healthy. We need to get through this weekend, then we’re back to our normal schedule. “You can tell we’ve only practiced twice since Christmas. We were pretty sloppy. It was an ugly win, but we’ll take it.”

Five Ice players crack NHL scouting rankings TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

Five members of the Kootenay Ice made the mid-season NHL Central Scouting rankings released on Monday, with Sam Reinhart occupying the highest spot at fourth overall of the North American skaters category. The Kootenay Ice captain was surpassed only by Sam Bennett (Kingston Frontenacs, OHL), Leon Draisaitl (Prince Albert Raiders, WHL) and Aaron Ekblad (Barrie Colts, OHL). Reinhart is currently in Calgary, where he will showcase his skills in front of NHL brass at the CHL BMO Top Prospects game on Wednesday evening. Reinhart was named captain of Team Cherry while Ekblad will

lead Team Orr in a game that features the best talent across the CHL. While it’s no surprise that Reinhart is in the top of the Central Scouting rankings, other Kootenay Ice players have also made the scouts sit up and take notice. Import defenceman Rinat Valiev, who cracked the same lists last season, was ranked 106th, while Jaedon Descheneau and Luke Philp were separated by only three at 122nd and 125th, respectively. Despite his long-term injury, Tanner Faith still has some NHL interest under the Limited Viewing category, joining other injured players such as Joe Hicketts (Victoria Royals) and Taylor Vickerman (TriCity Americans).

Valiev has been a solid addition to the blue line since his arrival in October, where he’s contributed three goals and collected 13 assists. Valiev, who attended an NHL camp with the Dallas Stars in September, adds some size to the blue line and has settled into a steady role with the team. Descheneau leads the Ice in goal production at 28, and sits in sixth place in the WHL scoring race with 57 points. “Yesterday morning, I didn’t even know the rankings were coming out,” said Descheneau. “It’s nice and an honour, now I just have to play well and move myself up in the rankings.” Philp agreed, noting it was the first time he’s cracked the Central Scouting lists.

He has had a solid season, stepping up to the top line while Reinhart left for the World Junior Championship. Philp has tallied 15 goals and 29 assists for 44 points this season, needing only one more to surpass his 2012-13 total. “All in all, I’m just happy to see that my name was on the list and happy for the other guys who where named, too,” Philp said. Even though they’re all happy to see themselves individually ranked, there is still a lot of work to be done as a team leading up and into playoffs. “I’m just worried about the team here and going far in the playoffs and whatever happens on draft day, happens,” said Descheneau.

Raonic advances to second round at Australian Open

MELBOURNE, Australia - Milos Raonic began his Australian Open with a 7-6 (2), 6-1, 4-6, 6-2 defeat of Spain’s Daniel Gimeno-Traver on Tuesday to reach the second round in sweltering temperatures. Raonic, the 11th seed from Thornhill, Ont., was tested for nearly two and a half hours in the demanding heat that hovered just above 40 C. The heat was even too much for one of the ball kids, who had to leave the court in the middle of the match. Raonic finally put away the victory on his fifth match point against an opponent ranked 77th in a first-time meeting. Canadian qualifier Frank Dancevic felt the heat as he was treated on court trailing 4-2 in the second set before eventually going down to France’s Benoit Paire 7-6 (14-12), 6-3, 6-4. Dancevic said he started feeling faint and was stretched out on court with a doctor, trainers and ambulance personnel in attendance. But the Niagara Falls, Ont., native recovered and soldiered on, wisely donning a white cap and finishing the match. Raonic took the victory with 21 aces, striking 48 winners and breaking on 7-of-20 chances. The 23-year-old was frustrated as he tried to close out the contest but finally got the job done when he broke the Spaniard’s serve. He’ll join compatriots Eugenie Bouchard, from Montreal, and Vancouver’s Vasek Pospisil, who won their first-round matches on Monday. Canadian Press

Canada’s cross-country skiers on track to make the podium at Sochi Games

CALGARY - Canada’s cross-country ski team is poised to make Olympic history next month. While Canadian women have stood on the Olympic podium in the sport, a Canadian man never has. Led by Alex Harvey of St-Ferreol-les-Neiges, Que., and Devon Kershaw of Sudbury, Ont., that drought could end on the Psekhako Ridge in Sochi, Russia. The hard goal of Canada’s cross-country team is to claim at least two medals in Sochi. It’s the men who have the best chance at winning them this time. The 11 skiers who’ll represent Canada in Sochi were introduced Tuesday at an elementary school with six being present for the announcement. Harvey, Kershaw, Ivan Babikov of Canmore, Alta., Daria Gaiazova of Banff, Alta., and Perianne Jones of Almonte, Ont., were in Europe and en route to a World Cup event in Poland. Chandra Crawford and Jesse Cockney of Canmore, Toronto’s Lenny Valjas, Graeme Killick of Fort McMurray, Alta., Heidi Widmer of Banff and Emily Nishikawa of Whitehorse will join their teammates in Italy next week for pre-Games training.

You might feel as if you must act a certain way, and you could be irritated to be in that position right now. Do not fight the inevitable. You’ll want to balance the different aspects of your life. Tonight: Out till the wee hours. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your sense of what to do might involve testing out your ideas on someone who is more knowledgeable than you on the topic. On some level, you could discover how easily irritated this makes you feel. Walk away from a difficult or volatile situation. Tonight: Go with the flow. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Relate to a partner or key associate directly in order to avoid a volatile situation. A friend still might be less than agreeable because of a sudden change of plans. Make a point not to lose your temper, and you will be OK. Tonight: Togetherness is the theme. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Avoid a potentially touchy situation by deferring to others. Consider what is more important: keeping the peace or being

right. Demonstrate compassion toward a partner or loved one. This person could be feeling insecure with today’s Full Moon. Tonight: Sort through ideas. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Someone could take advantage of your caring nature. You might feel hurt, or perhaps you’ll just feel sorry for this person. In any case, pull back and be more discriminating when it comes to your inner circle of friends. Tonight: Head home, and squeeze in some exercise. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might feel pulled in two different directions. Your friends really enjoy having you around, yet a child or loved one could express some neediness. You likely will try to juggle all of these concerns. As a result, a partner could become impatient. Tonight: Take a midweek break.

Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I’m a divorced woman who was married to a self-centered man for 30 years. He often told me that if I thought there was something better out there to not let the door hit me on the way out. I finally took him up on it, and it turned out to be the best advice he ever gave me. For the past three years, I’ve been dating “Ted,” also divorced. He is smart and successful, and we are perfect together in every way. Here is the problem: Ted is not ready to marry. He told me his marriage ended because there was no passion. He fears if we live together, the physical attraction we feel for each other will die. Ted and I spend weekends together and travel often, but then he goes home to his house. I don’t want to live alone for the rest of my life. But if Ted isn’t ready after three years, I doubt he ever will be. His reluctance hurts me deeply and brings back all those feelings of unworthiness from my marriage. Is it time for me to walk? -- Thought I’d Found the One Dear Thought: Ted may be skittish about commitment, but that is his issue, and he is making it yours. Some women are perfectly content with a no-strings relationship with someone they find compatible. But if you are looking for marriage, you will have to set Ted free and look elsewhere. We realize you have put a lot of effort, energy and emotion into this relationship, but if the end result makes you unhappy and anxious, Ted is not the right person for you. Dear Annie: I must reply to all the mothers-in-law who write to you and can’t understand why they are treated so unfairly by their daughters-in-law. My mother-in-law has been incredibly mean to me from the first time I met her. She deliberately does not include me in many of the family functions. She promises my children outings and never follows through. She and her daughter have been the nightmares of my life. This has gone on for years now, and I would rather not have any contact with them. My husband feels I should “be the better person” and just ignore their behavior. But, Annie, I can only do this for so long before the better course is to simply walk away. -- The Other Side of the Story Dear Other Side: Has your husband stood up for you with his family? Does he say, “My wife must be invited to these family functions, or I will not attend”? Does he tell his mother that the children no longer believe her promises and it hurts her relationship with them? If he thinks sweeping Mom’s behavior under the rug will make things better, he is mistaken. It is cowardly. Mom will learn to respect you as a member of her family if her son makes it clear to her that this is not optional and there are clear consequences. We cannot guarantee that she will change her tune, but we can absolutely assure you that if your husband does not do these things, nothing will ever improve and you are right to limit contact. Dear Annie: “Tired of Doing All the Holiday Planning” said she is going to stop hosting family holiday dinners because no one helps her clean up. In our home and those of our friends, the cook does not clean up. Everyone else does. “Tired” should tell her kids and grandkids to clear, wash, dry and put the dishes away. If Dad is in the picture, he should pitch in, too. Some of my fondest times involve the camaraderie when my buddies and I clean up after one of our wives’ meals. (We are lousy cooks.) Guys need to get with the program and show their wives they appreciate the effort of putting the meal together. -- Helpful Husband Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service. Condolences for the family can be offered at: www.mcphersonfh.com

Anne Wiens 1928 - 2014 Mrs. Anne Wiens (nee Schellenberg) of Cranbrook, BC, passed away peacefully on Friday, January 10, 2014 surrounded by her loving family at the age of 85.

Ph: 250.426.6006 Fx: 250.426.6005 2104D 2nd Street S. Cranbrook, BC theďŹ&#x201A;owerpot@shaw.ca

Anne was born in Dundurn, Saskatchewan on December 10th, 1928, and grew up on the family farm near Coaldale, AB. Her faith in the Lord led her to attend Mennonite Bible Institute in Didsbury, AB where she forged many lifelong friendships. She later met the love of her life, Henry Wiens, while working in Calgary, and they married in 1952. Henry & Anne were soon blessed with 3 children before finally moving to Cranbrook in 1967, where their 4th child was born. Anne adored being a wife, mother and homemaker. She possessed a simple and joyful grace that seemed to bring out the best in everyone, in every situation. Her bubbly laugh and sense of humour was always uplifting, and her steadfast faith in her Savior Jesus Christ was an inspiration to all who knew her. Anne was avid bowler in the local womensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; league for many years. She enjoyed travelling, gardening, sewing, knitting, reading, and going for coffee with her many friends. Since moving to Cranbrook, Henry & Anne have been active members of First Baptist Church, and later, the Knox Presbyterian Church. She loved to sing and was active in the church choir up until her passing. She is survived by her loving husband Henry, her four children Dan (Charlene) of Surrey, BC, Dyan (Ken) Thayer of Spokane, WA, Donna (Greg) Pascuzzo and Jamie of Cranbrook; her five grandchildren, Jenny (Marco) Guzzo, Sarah Maglio, Jake Whiteley, Jeff and Brock Pascuzzo; and her brother John Schellenberg of Calgary, AB. A memorial service will be held at Knox Presbyterian Church on Saturday, January 18th at 11:00 am. In lieu of flowers, those wishing to remember Anne in a special way may do so with donations to the Mennonite Central Committee at: MCCBC, Box 2038, Abbotsford, BC, V2T 3T8. Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service. Condolences for the family can be offered at: www.mcphersonfh.com

DO YOU KNOW.................., If you have something to give away, your ad is FREE???

With so many advertising mediums dividing the attention of potential customers, newspapers remain the most effective source for reaching consumers. Why? Simply put, newspapers reach more people, more often. Highly portable and highly visible, newspaper ads go with people and stay with them. That means your business is more likely to be on their minds when they’re in the market for related products or services. When it comes to spending your advertising dollars, make the choice that’s tried and true: newspaper advertising works harder for you.
