Estimate on pink salmon run slashed Jeff Nagel Black Press Fisher y managers have approved commercial fishing by seine boats for pink salmon despite estimates that the run is less than half what was anticipated. The Fraser River pink fishery got the green light Tuesday as the Pacific Salmon Commission pegged the run size at 6.2 million salmon, down from a forecast of 14.5 million. Conservationists had previously urged caution in fishing for pinks to avoid a bycatch of late-running sockeye entering the river at the same time. There was no commercial fishing for sockeye this summer after the run came back far below the expected 6.8 million. Officials at the salmon commission pared their estimates of the sockeye run size again Tuesday, cutting it from 2.4 to 2.1 million. Late summer run sockeye have been particularly poor, with the return about onesixth the number forecast. There’s no definitive explanation of why the actual returns have fallen short of predictions, but warm ocean temperatures over the past two years are thought to be one significant factor. “Now the bottom’s falling out of the pink run,” said Sto:lo fisheries adviser Ernie Crey. “So it’s a double whammy.” This summer’s drought and low stream levels have also raised concerns for the survival rate of returning salmon as they migrate upriver. The river temperature is now slightly cooler than normal – an improvement from earlier in the summer when the water was dangerously hot for salmon – but the volume of the Fraser near Hope is 17 per cent below normal.

Small but mighty town hall meeting Jennifer Feinberg The Progress The first of two town hall meetings hosted by Chilliwack city council Wednesday night saw just under 50 people showing up to broach timely topics. Speakers quizzed council on street parking, public safety, crime, and drug abuse. They asked what City of Chilliwack was doing about the homeless people who gather under the overpass, and a crime rate that may be on the rise. They wanted to know about city plans for asbestos abatement, the town dike and road markings for new developments. Regular city budget commentator Bryden Nelmes asked council if it planned to consider “asbestos abatement,” as a condition of future demolition permits, in the wake of a recent building demolished at Yale and Menzies found to contain asbestos after it came down.
“Yes, we absolutely are,” replied Mayor Sharon Gaetz, adding that staff would be looking into asbestos abatement, to see if it could be incorporated into the demolition permitting process. Nelmes also asked for an update on the plans for a new pump station at the Hope Slough, and was told by staff that the preliminary design process was about to begin. Coun. Jason Lum noted it was a
“great time” to talk about flood control and to remind everyone to tell their MPs how important flood protection is, especially since estimates point to losses of six to eight billion dollars in the event of a major flood. “We don’t want to see a situation like the one in Calgary,” said Lum. “We want to make sure we continue to offer a proactive response.” Speaker Wayne Froese asked if council was looking at a comprehen-
sive plan to make Chilliwack more “walkable” – one that would function to “get people out of their cars.” He suggested Chilliwack had room for improvement in that regard. Coun. Chuck Stam said there was such a plan, citing a 10-year plan focused on improving bicycle paths and pedestrian walkways, that is both “progressive and aggressive.” Stam said they’re working on plans to extend the Sardis Rail Trail for cyclists and pedestrians to cross over the highway as far north as Airport. “There’s more to come,” he underlined. Speaker Erin Lacey took the mic to say she was “a mom who loves Chilliwack,” who spends a lot of time at the Chilliwack library, and the downtown, and is growing concerned by homelessness and IV drug users. “There have been some random crazy things happening and

KM pipeline hearings on hold after appointment New NEB director worked for Kinder Morgan Jeff Nagel Black Press Oral hearings that were supposed to begin this week in Burnaby into Kinder Morgan’s oil pipeline expansion plan are on hold in the wake of the appointment of one of the company’s consultants to the National Energy Board. Steven Kelly was named this summer to a seven-year NEB term, beginning in October. He won’t sit on the three-member NEB panel considering the proposed Trans Mountain pipeline twinning, but his appointment has drawn fresh accusations that the process is unfair to project critics. The NEB has struck the evidence provided by Kelly from the
record – citing concerns about the integrity of the process – and Kinder Morgan is having new consultants review and re-file those reports before the NEB lays out a revised schedule for the review. The City of Burnaby is now arguing that doesn’t go far enough – it says a whole new review panel must be constituted to review the project, effectively rebooting the process. “Mr. Kelly’s evidence has tainted this entire hearing, and the process must begin again to erase the perception of bias towards Trans Mountain,” wrote Greg McDade, lawyer for the municipality. The NEB had begun advertising for permanent board members in January, so McDade argues Kelly’s appointment had been in
the works for months, with both he and the NEB aware of his application as he continued to work on evidence in support of the project. “Replacing (Kelly’s) evidence at the eleventh hour in no way legitimizes this hearing process.” Burnaby is also demanding draft conditions for the project that were released last month be withdrawn and reconsidered. Kelly’s work had been focused on the economic justification for the new pipeline. Kinder Morgan estimated the revised evidence will be resubmitted by Sept. 25 and it wants the NEB to expedite the conclusion of the review. “Obviously restarting the regulatory process is not a viable option for us,” Trans Mountain spokesperson Lisa Clement said. The $5.4-billion pipeline project would nearly triple Trans
Mountain’s capacity and result in a seven-fold increase in tankers carrying oil out through Burrard Inlet. Deal-making on benefits okay, NEB rules
Meanwhile, the NEB has ruled against another intervener that had argued Kinder Morgan should stop offering municipalities and universities lucrative community benefit deals in advance of the hearings. The group WaterWealth had objected to the offers of benefit agreements – which some critics have called “bribes” to mute criticism at the hearings – arguing they erode trust in the NEB and cast doubt on the evidence of beneficiaries who are also intervenors. The NEB concluded the agreements or negotiations toward them don’t undermine its credibility and
Bucket List festival back, addresses digital after-life Sam Bates The Progress Do you have a plan for your personal assets after you die? What about your Facebook profile? After a warm response last year, the second annual Chilliwack Bucket List Festival on September 26 will offer ways to get the most out of life when there is a limited amount of it left. Hosted by the Chilliwack Hospice Society, in partnership with the Chilliwack Division of Family Practice, the festival is intended to help people living with life-threatening illnesses, those in their golden years, and of course, their family members and caregivers, to overcome obstacles and achieve their goals. Dr. Pippa Hawley, Head of Palliative Medicine at the University of British Columbia, initiated the first Bucket List Festival in 2011 for attendees to gather and discuss living well despite nearing end-of-life. “The focus of this year’s event is to provide people with information and resources to help them plan and think about the future,” explains Colleen Rush, Education Coordinator at the Chilliwack Hospice Society. The event will feature four informative and engaging presentations by industry experts: • How to really “talk” with your doctor, Dr. Chantal Chris • Community health care resources panel, Laura Clarke (RN, BSN, GNC), Dr. Ralph Jones, and Dr. Neil Hilliard • Advance care planning, Cari Borenko Hoffmann (Fraser Health) • Planning for your digital afterlife, Dr. David Thomson (UFV) While Hoffmann’s presentation will focus on health-orient-

authority, and are consistent with the consultation requirements placed on the company. Trans Mountain officials had in part argued the NEB had no jurisdiction over the company’s dealings with third parties. Kinder Morgan struck a deal in June to contribute $300,000 over 20 years to Kwantlen Polytechnic University. Earlier in the spring, Chilliwack council voted to defer an $800,000 offer for a pedestrian walkway until the project review ends. Kinder Morgan has benefit deals worth $5 million with 18 municipalities along the pipeline route from Hope to northern Alberta, and has had talks with others, including Abbotsford, Langley Township and Surrey. All the contribution agreements are subject to approval of the project.

ed decisions that you can make now to prepare for the future, Professor Thomson’s presentation addresses the relatively new digital aspects. Everything you’ve ever written, photographed, or kept is what makes you who you are. “A generation ago, these would have been a bunch of pieces of paper, or a detailed scrapbook that would be passed on to next of kin,” says Thomson. Now that personal records are digitized and locked up in a password-protected computer, the question becomes “what’s going to happen to them when you inevitably die? How does someone else gain access?” Thomson asks. Additionally, “about a third to a half of seniors are on social media,” Thomson says. They should decide whether they want

their social media accounts to be deleted, left up, or managed by a selected person after death or debilitating injury. Though it may seem inconsequential to some, this decision can be outlined in your will and, as policies are evolving, in your social media settings as well. Online banking exposes the financial perspective. Does anyone else know your account password? Are there services or memberships that charge a monthly fee? “If you were to die, how long would it be before that recurring charge would be noticed by anybody?” Thomson asks. “When someone dies, it’s always traumatic to the people around them. If they can’t access the necessary information, it just adds to their anxiety and stress,” Thomson explains.
From updating your will to organizing your emails, the festival presenters will provide tangible actions that you can take now to prepare for and manage your future. The Bucket List Festival takes place Saturday, September 26 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Chilliwack Alliance Church (8700 Young Road). Tickets are $25 and can be purchased at chilliwackhospice.org, in-person at 45360 Hodgins Ave, or by calling 604-795-4660. The ticket price includes lunch and the chance to win some amazing prizes, courtesy of local businesses, that may just fulfill a bucket list dream. Prize experiences include a helicopter ride, paragliding flight, river raft expedition, paintball sessions, horseback rides and more.
The Canadian Cancer Society will stop operating its Volunteer Driver Program that for years has given patients free rides to and from chemotherapy and radiation treatment in many B.C. communities. The society says declines in donations and volunteers have forced the end of the service, which cost $400,000 a year. “Unfortunately we’ve had to make the really difficult decision to close the program effective Oct. 6,” said Sandra Krueckl, vice-president of cancer control for the Canadian Cancer Society’s B.C. and Yukon division. “Donor dollars have been shrinking in recent years,” she said, adding the cancer society has felt the same stresses as many other charities, including a slide in how many hours volunteers are now willing to commit out of their increasingly busy lives. “As our current volunteers are retiring out of their current volunteer roles, we are not seeing the same number of volunteers coming up behind them.” About 80 clients per month used the program, which was staffed by roughly 380 volunteers around B.C. Drivers used their own vehicles and were reimbursed 41 cents per kilometre for gas and wear-and-tear. Other transportation alternatives exist in most communities, Krueckl said, adding demand for rides had been declining. She stressed that the Freemasons Cancer Car Program, a separate ride Continued: RIDE/ p10

Councillors quizzed on crime, homelessness and development COUNCIL from Front incidents where I have had to call police, for violence and drugs. It’s very upsetting.” The local mom raised the issue of the homeless people who congregate under the overpass near the McDonald’s, and asked why a portable toilet could not be brought to the site, since there was evidence of feces left behind. “Homelessness is not unique to Chilliwack,” underlined Chris Crosman, the city’s deputy chief administrative officer. Regarding the folks who gather under the overpass, he said: “We’ve been reaching out to them constantly to get them the help they need.” But they’ve so far refused any help, since getting housing requires sobriety. The problem is
with people buying them food and bringing them couches, it’s enabling the lifestyle, he said. “We have to be very careful not to create a homeless camp,” Crosman said. Mayor Gaetz said city council does not make decisions, like the one to put the fence under the overpass, alone. There’s a coalition of 36 agencies involved in the Healthier Communities effort. “Homelessness in Chilliwack went down from 111 to 73 in the last homeless count,” she said, praising the work of local groups and facilities, from Ruth and Naomi’s Mission, Cyrus Centre, as well as the contact centre, and School Street facility for homeless youth and those with mental health and addictions. “Our goal is to end homelessness in the City
of Chilliwack,” Gaetz said. RCMP Insp. Davy Lee chimed in about prolific offenders and the crucial contributions of crime analysts who show where the “hotspots” are. A lot of their focus is on keeping track of prolific offenders. “They really are career criminals,” Insp. Lee said. Part of the issue under the overpass is that it’s a roadway, and the street people are moved along. “There is no easy solution,” said the mayor. “We move them on and
they come back. The next part we’re working on is toward Housing First initiatives.” Downtown business owner Cameron Hull, also a former mayoralty candidate, offered praise for what Chilliwack has done, and continues to do, to solve the homelessness problem. But he said he found statistics to show that Chilliwack’s crime rate has been creeping slowly upward. “What is the city going to do to stem this steady increase?” he asked. Hull said Chilliwack
was the only city in the Fraser Valley and Metro Vancouver to see a crime rate increase in the last five years. Coun. Sue Attrill replied that Chilliwack was hiring two more RCMP officers and will continue to target prolific offenders since they account for 80 per cent of the crime. “If we could get them under control, the RCMP would have hours in which to attend to other matters. We’re looking to increase the RCMP numbers, but we also have to address the issue which
threatens the safety of her and her family. “I don’t feel safe. I’ve lived in the community for 25 years, and raised my kids here. I’m angry now.” Coun. Lum said he was definitely empathetic as he heard her story, as chair of the public safety committee, and suggested one solution might be a public registry for “deadbeat landlords” for those who are “profiting off” of residents’ heartache. “As far as I’m concerned, there is no room for that.”

Big changes for schools
The Chilliwack
Progress
R AESIDE
The new school year is officially underway. Even if you don’t have kids in the education system, there is still this sense that summer fun is behind us and now we must get down to business. Roads are busier and so are everyone’s lives. Parents begin their everyday scramble of getting kids to and from school safely. For some young ones, this week marks their entry into the school system. For older ones, they are entering into middle or high school. Classrooms are clean and bright, with teachers and administrators rolling out the welcome mat. While education is always evolving – big changes are coming as to how teachers teach. The stereotypical model of educators standing in front of the classroom lecturing while students follow along from textbooks is transforming. Instead, classrooms will be interactive with teachers discovering individual student’s passions. Teachers will direct and fuel those interests on a new learning path. It’s welcome change for students who don’t thrive in the traditional classroom setting. If teachers can tap into what individual students get excited about, the potential to unlock their brains from boredom and turn that into drive and passion is exciting news. School districts around the province are already preparing for the changes and teachers are adapting their teaching style to this new way of reaching students. There are no two students alike. Some children thrive on tests and report deadlines – others crash and burn. Change is hard for all, but this is a directive coming from the government that parents and students should support. Individual learning has the potential to unlock bright minds which can make for a bright future. Our future leaders and innovators are in our schools. -Black Press
L OCALLY G LOBAL
World must fix refugee crisis at its root Last week, the lifeless body of tiny three-year-old Aylan Kurdi washed up alone on a resort beach in Bodrum, Turkey. It was a moment of singularity – a snapshot in time of a child that defined all the callous inhumanity of unending conflict. It stopped the world in its tracks. The global response was equally singular: More must be done to help the refugees. Syria’s crisis started in 2011 in Deraa. Fifteen schoolchildren were arrested for writing antigovernment graffiti on a wall. Protesters called for their release. The army opened fire on them, killing four. Then they shot at mourners at the funeral, ultimately unfurling the crisis of war. Now, over four million refugees, half of them children fleeing the mayhem, define the chaos of Syria. President Bashar al-Assad’s government fights against one
thousand groups that make up the rebel forces wanting him out. In 2014, ISIS took over large areas of the country. At a stalemate, all sides are unable to defeat each other. According to the UN Refugee Agency, more than 300,000 people have risked their lives to cross the Mediter ranean Sea this year. So Margaret far, over, 2,600 EVANS didn’t sur vive, including little Aylan. The UN high commissioner for refugees has called on the European Union to admit some 200,000 refugees as part of a mass relocation program. The UK has pledged another £100 million in humanitarian aid, bringing its total contribution to over
£1 billion. Germany is expecting 800,000 asylum applications this year. France has agreed to take 26,000 and Spain will shelter 16,000. So far, Canada has been pulling under its weight since the 1980s when it received 60,000 Vietnamese, Cambodian and Laotian refugees. While the Harper government has committed to doing more, according to Citizenship and Immigration Canada we have only resettled some 2,370 Syrian refugees, most of them through private sponsorship. The government pledged to bring in 11,300 over three years and PM Harper committed to an additional 10,000 over four years if re-elected. Not every country has rushed to increase quotas. The U.S., forever wary of terrorists in the midst of refugees, has only taken in 1,800 migrants but has pro-

vided $4.1 billion in humanitarian aid. An Angus Reid poll showed that 70 per cent of Canadians agree that Canada has a role to play but they are divided on numbers and the degree of action. Some believe a portion of refugees might be bogus. There is strong support for sending humanitarian aid and armed forces to help refugees. While help is urgent, stopping the war is more urgent. “Beyond the immediate response, it is clear that this situation will require us to reflect seriously about the future,” said Antonio Guterres, UN high commissioner for refugees. “This massive flow of people will not stop until the root causes of their plight are addressed. Much more must be done to prevent conflicts and stop the ongoing wars that are driving so many from their homes.”
UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon, admitted that the Security Council is failing Syria because of pro-Syrian members. In an interview with The Guardian, he indicated that Russia and China should look beyond their national interests and stop blocking Security Council action on the conflict. Last year, Moscow and Beijing vetoed a move by 13 permanent and non-permanent members to refer the Syrian conflict for investigation by the International Criminal Court. The little body of Aylan has galvanized provincial political will. On Tuesday, Premier Christie Clark announced a $1 million fund to help Syrian refugees who settle in British Columbia. Ontario, Alberta and Quebec are all stepping up to the plate and Mayor Gregor Robertson wants Vancouver to be a sanctuary city for refugees.

Canada should be cautious ate consideration. Those fleeing for economic reasons may need more thought. An incident on the Greek island of Lesbos where a “refugee” was heard complaining that there were no good hotel rooms available gives pause for thought. Then we see several reports going back over many months where ISIS is quoted as saying they will flood Europe with radicalized “refugees.” When you look at many of the pictures on TV and see the large number of apparently healthy, well dressed young men acting rather aggressively and claiming refugee status you start to wonder who these people are. Our government is taking a cautious approach to screening refugees. Yes – Canada should be generous when it comes to
Chilliwack & Area’s Hottest Listings... www.ChilliwackRealEstateReview.com
helping genuine refugees. But, with the complex mess the refugee situation is in, there is good reason for caution. The current situation is rather different than many refugee challenges in the past. There are a lot of aspects now that are not clear and there are many dangers involved. The root of the problem is the political and religious mess in the Middle East. This needs to be addressed in a constructive way that addresses the refugee problem. Unfortunately no one seems to have any clear answers. I think the approach our government is taking by being a bit cautious regarding refugees and working towards a long term solution is the rational approach.

We have problems of our own I just read the socalled (I don’t know what to call it) Raeside piece. Under the current government there has been thousands of immigrants allowed into Canada. The government is tr ying to keep out the terror-
ists. We have enough problems here. We don’t need any more to come in and do nothing but collect money from the taxpayers. We all feel sorr y when we see children starving but we have thousands here doing
that. Let’s look after them instead of importing more. Why aren’t all those able bodied men staying in their own country and fighting against the terrorists? Are they afraid they will be killed in battle? Stay home and
This new smoking bylaw should be most entertaining. Picture an old lady at a bus stop walloping a teen with her umbrella for smoking too close. See a person alienating his or her friends by ratting them out for breaking the bylaw. Picture the city hiring lawyers to fight some one who feels the bylaw is unconstitutional. I am sure there are more pictures. As well I am sure that 75 per cent of the councillors who voted for this stupid bylaw are reformed smokers and want to force everyone to be “clean” like them.
Chilliwack does not have a reputation for good air quality. One doesn’t have to be a nuclear physicist to deduce that the main local contributing factors for this include topography, forest fires, exhaust from cars, trucks, semi-trailers, RVs, farm machinery, greenhouses, trains, and planes. It would seem that Madam Mayor and Council think that cigarette smoking is the biggest culprit, given the recent approval of a bylaw banning smoking in outdoor public places.

September sure came in like a Lion didn’t it! While we were spared most of the issues that challenged our neighbours to the west of us we should always pay attention and learn from what happened there. Could any of us handle 72 hours without power? It isn’t always so much what happens to you but how you deal with what has happened. How people deal with some challenging situations is certainly inspiring to others. We have a Lion in our midst, a Past Council Chairperson of our Lions Association who is facing a signiÀcant life challenge. Through the course of his life he has focused almost entirely on helping others. He has been instrumental in helping eliminate River Blindness, one of the leading causes of preventable blindness worldwide. He received the Nobel Peace Prize for his continuing work in promoting peaceful solutions to International ConÁict. Internationally this Lion is referred to as President Jimmy Carter 39th President of the USA. Jimmy sets a great example as he continues dealing with life threatening health challengs. The Mills Meeker/Jerry McEvoy Memorial Golf tournament was a great success with more than 41 golfers participating under ideal weather conditions. Our seniors drop in program resumes on September 15th and 17th, we do like to have an idea on the number of people joining us for lunch. For the Àrst week we would appreciate a phone call to the number at the bottom of this article letting us know the names of those joining us for lunch. The Model Train and Hobby show preparation is entering the Ànal preparation stage – be sure to mark October 17 & 18 on your Calendar to come and check the show out. You may Ànd a hobby that appeals to you and it is always interesting to see what others do.

The rationale given in the local papers include “many municipalities have gone in this direction” and that the purpose of the bylaw is “to reduce the risk of fires as well as second hand smoke”. Puleese.....give the rhetoric a rest! Alas, it is not the odour of second hand smoke that is most apparent to me, it is the stench of “politics”...ie hypocrisy, self-justification. self-righteousness, and bigbrotherness. April McKenna

The Syrian refugee crisis is a serious but complex issue. The flow of refugees from the Middle East into Europe started many months if not years ago. Currently the majority appears to be from Syria but there are many from Iraq, Afghanistan and other countries in the Middle East and North Africa. In reading the reports there appear to be two types of refugee. There are those who have been subjected to various forms physical and psychological abuse including having their homes and villages destroyed and there are economic refugees who are fleeing with money for their own financial reasons. The refugees that have, for example, suffered serious religious persecution and the destruction of their homes demand immedi-

Unwrapped field cucumbers are being recalled by major B.C. grocery outlets due to possible salmonella contamination. Safeway recalled its bulk-sold field cucumbers Sunday, along with in-store products bought on or before Sept. 6 that contained them, such as salads, vegetable trays, sushi and sandwiches. That recall was expanded Tuesday to include field cucumbers sold in or before Sept. 4 by the Overwaitea Food Group through its Save On Foods, PriceSmart, Coopers Foods, Overwaitea and Freson Brothers outlets. There are no known cases of illness in Canada, according to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. The Canadian recalls came in response to a recall by a California producer and may be linked to an outbreak in the U.S., the CFIA said. Recalled products are to be thrown out or returned to the store. Salmonella-contaminated food may not look or smell spoiled but can still make people sick. Young children, pregnant women, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems may contract serious and sometimes deadly infections. Healthy people may get short-term symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea.

The society asked the province, which already contributes to the operations of its cancer lodges, to provide more funding to support the ride program, but was declined. “While they certainly were sympathetic to our situation and understood our declining revenue situation and challenges with supporting this program in the future, they have competing priorities,� Krueckl said.

Kinsella reads from new anthology The Progress W.P. Kinsella attributes the success of an early piece of fiction, Shoeless Joe, to a stroke of good luck. It was first done as a short story, he says, and published in an anthology. A review of the story ended up in a magazine, where it caught the eye of a publisher. “He wrote to me and said ‘if this is a novel, we want to see it,’” he recalls. “I told him ‘well, I’ve never written a novel, would you be willing to guide me?’” That led to a partnership of sorts, and a fleshed-out version inspired the blockbuster baseball movie Field of Dreams, starring Kevin Costner. The movie’s popularity endures, decades later, and has many of the mystical themes that underline much of Kinsella’s work. All told, he has published 16 books of short fiction throughout his career. His newest collection, The Essential W.P. Kinsella, includes 35 stories from his career, including Shoeless Joe. This career retrospective celebrates the author’s 80th birthday, as well as the 25th anniversary of Field of Dreams. It’s a “best of the best collection,” he says, and he had great fun compiling them. It also includes four previously unpublished works. “I’ve always liked my work,” he says. “I laugh out loud when I read it. It’s a lack of self confidence, when people read their stuff and say ‘oh I can’t read that.’” Other than the expansion of Shoeless Joe, and a handful of novels, he has stayed true to shorter prose. “I much prefer the short story form,” he says, in a phone interview from his home in Yale, B.C. “When you’re writing for a living, if I spend ten days writing a short story and it fails, it’s only 10 days. If I spend a year writing a novel, and it’s bad, that’s a year gone,” he says. “There is a lot of pressure on you.” His love of the short story has worked out well for him, even before Shoeless Joe. “I was very lucky

well past the point of ‘best-selling’ status as a writer. And for weary writers hoping to follow in his footsteps one day, he offers some tough advice. “I get very exasperated with people who say ‘I’m going to write a novel some day but I don’t have the time,’” he says, a con-

stant refrain from many a would-be author. “If you’re really interested you’ll make the time,” he says. “You’ll get up at 5 a.m. and write for two hours, throw hot water on your hands and then go off to some awful job.” Kinsella is touring his new anthology, and that includes a stop at the Chilliwack Library on Sept. 16 at 7 p.m. He will be reading from his book, and speaking with those who stop by.

New radio channels coming to resource roads Forestry road users are being asked to prepare for a change in the way they communicate in the back country. Starting Nov. 16, new resource road radio channels will come into effect. It’s part of a province wide, safetyoriented project aimed at standardizing two-way radio communications on forest service roads and some resource roads. This project includes standardized signage, new dedicated resource road radio channels and
standardized call procedures. The Chilliwack Natural Resource District will begin implementing new resource road radio channels commencing on Nov. 16. Districts on the Coast, Cariboo, Southern and Northern Interior have already transitioned or are currently transitioning. Forest industry workers and other road users using mobile radios must have their radios reprogrammed to incorporate the new resource road channels, says a ministry spokes-
person. It is recommended that road users retain current radio frequencies until they are sure they are no longer required. New signs posted on local resource roads indicate which radio channel to use and the calling interval, with drivers required to indicate their direction of travel and their vehicle type. Drivers using mobile radios must call according to the posted channels and call protocols. All road users are reminded that
forest service roads are not radiocontrolled, but radio-assisted. All users should drive safely and according to road and weather conditions. It is strongly recommended that all resource road users exercise additional caution during this transition period. Local resource road safety committees have worked together to implement these changes. More information is available online at: www. for.gov.bc.ca/dck/Engineering/ RR_RadioChannels.htm

Grant aids literacy Jessica Peters The Progress Adult literacy has been given a financial boost from the province, in the form of annual grants. Locally, Chilliwack Community Ser vices received $29,600 and the Chilliwack Learning Community Society received $33,800, Chilliwack MLA John Martin announced this week. Both organizations collaborate with UFV to provide literacy support to adults, and offer a wide range of literacy education services. James Challman, executive director of Chilliwack Community Services, said the grant helps to fund about 17 per cent of their family literacy programs. While the annual grant has been reduced over the years from previous levels of more than $40,000 per year, Challman said they also now receive provincial Community Gaming Grant money, various public grants and donations, he added, for a total $179,000 toward literacy and child care costs. Each year, Chilliwack Community Ser vices provide literacy services to about 40 people and offers up to 24 child care spaces for their participants. “Child care can be a major stumbling block for people attempting to upgrade their literacy and education,” he notes. “We remove that block by providing child care as part of our service.” Start up dates for adult literacy programs with Chilliwack Community Ser vices are in September and January each year, he noted, and services are provided by paid, qualified professionals. In total this year, the province invested $2.4 million in community adult literacy programs, in 75 communities. Funding is distributed to non-profit community groups to offer free literacy training that is easily accessible in local places such as schools, Aboriginal friendship centres and community centres. jpeters@theprogress.com

This year’s design at the Chilliwack Corn Maze is a tribute to Terry Fox and the 35th anniversary of the Marathon of Hope, with a fundraiser this Saturday.
Chilliwack corn maze honours Terry Fox run Jessica Peters The Progress Darrell Fox plans to take a long walk through the Chilliwack Corn Maze this Saturday. He’ll begin at the entrance of the maze, and make his way past tall silky stalks and trivia sign posts. He’ll turn this way and that, navigating the pathways ahead. There’s no way he’d miss out on the chance to walk this year’s maze, he said during a media and VIP tour of the Greendale farm this Wednesday. After all, there’s a big motivator waiting for him in the centre of the maze — a likeness of his brother, Terry Fox. “I’ve gotta go find him,” Fox said. “I’ve gotta go say hello.” The Chilliwack Corn Maze is one of three mazes in Canada that are paying tribute to Terry Fox’s Marathon of Hope. This
year marks the 35th anniversary of his amazing journey to bring about cancer awareness and funding for research. Since 1980, the Marathon of Hope has inspired $700 million in donations for cancer research, in Terry Fox’s name. He passed away in 1981, from bone cancer or osteogenic sarcoma. In those days, nobody talked about cancer, Fox said on Wednesday. “Reflecting back to 1980 we didn’t discuss cancer,” he said. “He never showed off his artificial leg because cancer was something you just didn’t discuss.” He described seeing his brother complete 42 km on average each day, with one leg, as “witnessing a miracle.” And that miracle has led to major strides in cancer research. “When Terry was diagnosed in 1977, he was given a 20 to

30 per cent chance of living,” Fox said. “If he were to be diagnosed today, he would have an 80 per cent chance of living, and he probably wouldn’t have even lost his leg.” We can’t change history, he said, but Terry’s legacy has changed lives. And the drive to cure all cancers must continue. “Even though it’s been 35 years, it still hurts immensely,” Fox added. So, this Saturday, Sept. 12, admission to the Chilliwack Corn Maze is by donation to the Terry Fox Foundation. And Terry Fox is quite literally the centre attraction there this year. When the design was unveiled this week, everyone involved in the project came out to celebrate and enjoy flyovers in a helicopter. The pathways of this year’s maze represent Canada, and a portion of the centre is wide
open. From high above the maze, it looks as if a bold and determined Terry Fox is walking across Ontario. The maze was planted in that design, walked out on foot according to a grid, and without the help of GPS. John Bruinsma, owner, said that they lucked out with the crop, considering the intense heat and drought experienced here. “We don’t irrigate so we just have to hope and pray it comes up,” he said. Councillor Chris Kloot was on hand, and congratulated the maze owners for being among “the first local farmers to spearhead agritourism,” so many years ago. This isn’t the first time a special milestone has been celebrated at the Chilliwack Corn Maze. The 150th anniversary of the RCMP and the 40th anniversary

of the University of the Fraser Valley have both received star treatment in the past. But there is another special component on site this year. They partnered with the senior drawing and painting class at GW Graham to include large wooden cut-outs for photo opportunities. Students Michael Glyngsdal and Danielle Gemmell joined their teacher Rebecca Sagert at the farm on Wednesday, and they were congratulated on a job well done. The project gave the students a chance to work with an outside client, to get feedback, and learn in a real-life situation not usually offered through usual class work, Sagert noted. “It’s been a really exciting opportunity for them,” she said.

Ten young hip hop dancers from Chilliwack are heading to Italy next month to compete against the best in the world. Delaney Hawkes of Chilliwack has earned a second chance to represent Team Canada for 2015 — after making it to Germany for the worlds last year. “I’m so grateful. My goal is to stay completely focused,” she says. So what does it take to win? “It takes drive, determination and practice,” the 19-year-old says. “You have to want it. We’ve talked about this many times as a team. You just need to have tunnel vision about winning.” They made a point of studying the dance formations from last year’s winners to get a leg up on the competition. “You have to have strong formations, like with no one out of their spacing, and strong arms. Everything is just really clean.” The team members are in intensive training and fundraising mode as they prepare for their departure on Oct. 19 to Rimini, Italy. “Being on a team and doing something you love is insane,” Hawkes tells The Progress. “Also being with people who are just as inspired as you, and who want to work hard, is the best feeling.” Penny Hamel’s son is also going on the trip, so she is organizing a clothing drive fundraiser for the whole month of September, after teaming up with Big Brothers and Big Sisters. They’re collecting clothing, shoes, linens, and handbags, with the goal of filling up garbage bags up to about 15 lbs each.

Corn maze donations aid Fox Foundation
Darrell Fox peers through the window of a cutout replica of Terry Fox’s famous van.
Colthorp, being a part of the partnership between the corn maze and the Terry Fox Foundation has been a meaningful experience.
In 1987, she worked as the B.C. school coordinator for the Fox Run, and while growing up in Fox’s home town of Port Coquitlam, she attended

Terry Fox secondary. “Today was extra special for me,” she said. The Chilliwack Corn Maze and Pumpkin Farm is located at 41905 Yale Rd. in Greendale, off Exit 109 on the highway. Admission (by donation) will also provide access to all the onsite activities including the giant jumping pillow, pedal carts, giant sandbox, hay bale maze, barnyard ball zone and, of course, the 10-acre maze. To learn more, visit www.chilliwackcor nmaze.com.
Hip hop dancers help Canada take on the world HIP HOP from page 21 It all gets donated to Big Brothers after that, for which they’ll earn about $2.50 per bag for the trip. Also an account #75 has been opened at the Sardis bottle depot to offset expenses. Bottles, and bags of clothing can be picked up, if needed. “Between the two fundraisers, and others, we’ll get them there,” said Hamel. Her son, Tyler Hamel, made the
hip hop team and will be flying to Italy in October. They’re practising pretty much every weekend now, and it will revert to every couple of weeks soon. Since hip hop dance is not recognized as a sport on the national level, they have to fundraise to pay for the trip to Europe. The national team, with 22 senior dancers out of about 60, include some who have been to the worlds before. That gives them a
better handle on things this time around. “We know our mistakes from last time. There is way more focus.” “But hip hop has definitely has come a long way. Now there’s a whole global competition for it.” A $10 pub night fundraiser in Chilliwack will be held Sept. 11 at Jolly Miller, with a cheeseburger dinner from 6 to 10 p.m. to benefit the dancers. Shake the Can is set for Sept. 12 outside the downtown liquor store.

A little TLC goes a long way toward helping your lawn After a recordsetting summer of heat, drought and water restrictions, many folks are not very proud of how their lawns look â&#x20AC;&#x201C; okay, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brown and then thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very brown! However, the recent rains have been helping bring back the green. Ironically many weed varieties, particularly

First, the weeds! They compete with our existing grasses for water and food, they look unsightly, and they spread Brian like MINTER wildfire. Most of them are annuals, so consistent weekly mowing with the blades set as low as possible is the first line of defence. If you make a point of mowing in opposite directions each week, this will also help prevent thatch. Maintaining good cultural practices for
your lawn grasses is the next best way to keep out weeds. That means building a good soil base through aeration and proper watering and feeding. Most weeds, with the exception of velvet grass, couch grass, clover and horsetails, can be controlled by simply digging them out as they appear, or spot treating them with environmentally-friendly â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;EcoSense Weed B Gonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Overseeding, however, is one of the best ways to help choke out weeds, and now is the best time of the year to do just that. If you take a little time to keep tabs on your weeds, you will be amazed just how easy it is to control them.

For long-term success with your lawn, you really must aerate which means removing plugs of soil, either by hand or machine, to improve drainage. Those of you who have sandy soil are not off the hook here either. Winter and spring, rains beat down on the soil surface, making it hard and subsequently difficult for roots to breathe and penetrate deeper into the soil. Aeration should be followed by applying a 3/8 inch layer of coarse or washed sand on the lawn area. The sand will work its way into those aeration holes to keep them open, thus improving the drainage. Once you have created this â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;battlefieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; effect on your lawn, you can easily fix it by overseeding. The cool night temperatures and

Goal Setting Before you commit to a goal, develop a plan as to how you’re going to make that goal a success and determine if this plan is realistic. For example, if you resolve to lose weight, part of your plan should include an exercise regimen and any dietary changes. Once you have laid out this plan, examine it to see how likely you are to stick with it. If your plan includes waking up at 6 a.m. every morning to

workout and you know waking up that early is problematic for you, then you don’t have to abandon the goal, but you might want to develop a new plan that’s more likely to be successful. The plan should be in place before you make it. If you simply cannot map out a plan that’s amenable to your schedule, then this goal might prove very difficult to keep and you might want to explore another option.

Just because someone working out next to you can bench press a few hundred pounds does not mean you should attempt to follow suit Find a time that works for you. When beginning a new workout routine. Beginners often prefer to avoid peak hours when fitness clubs tend to be most crowded. Many clubs are most busy during the post-work hours of 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. During these hours, beginners may feel intimidated by other members who appear to be in tip-top shape or frustrated when having to share machines with other members. But some beginners might be motivated by a packed gym.
Many people aspire to adopt a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise, which medical professionals have long advised is an essential element of a healthy life. In fact, adults should get at least two hours and 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity, such as brisk walking, every week and some muscle-strengthening activities that focus on all the major muscle groups on two or more days per week. While adhering to such an exercise regimen might not appear that difficult on the surface, many men and women know just how difficult it can be to make the transition from a relatively inactive lifestyle to one in which exercise is a significant part of the daily routine. Much of that difficulty stems from the intimidation many people feel when visiting a gym. Walking into a gym for the first time can be similar to the first day of school, when a lack of familiarity

Water levels in the SardisVedder aquifer have been on the rise with all the recent rain. City of Chilliwack announced Wednesday it is reverting back to stage 2 watering restrictions, until the end of the month, even though aquifer levels are higher than normal at this point. “In order to be good stewards of our water resources, the City of Chilliwack is continuing with Stage 2 watering restrictions,” according to the city news release. That means residents are allowed to water two days a

On Wednesday, September 3, the Ministr y of Forests, Land and Natural Resource Operations downgraded the drought rating for B.C.’s south coast and Lower Fraser areas to Level 3 from the previous level 4 rating, which is the highest possible drought rating. Enforcement will continue until the end of September. Anyone caught watering outside of the restricted hours will be given a warning, before being issued a $100 fine.

Lawn care LAWN from page 24 Avoid so-called ‘winterizing’ fertilizers because they contain the wrong fertilizer formulation for the West Coast. Slow-release nitrogen fertilizers are the best because they maintain the green without creating a lot of excess growth which you, of course, get to mow. The Environmental Protection Agency in the US also endorses slow-release nitrogen because the nitrates stay in the turf. When the weather gets cooler, the rate of growth slows down. The nitrogen is stored in the grass cells which will keep your lawn green over winter and allow it to bounce back more quickly next spring. Something like a Scott’s Slow-Release 30-0-10 formulation is great. There are a few really fine lawns out there, but most do need some work to get them into shape for the fall and winter months. Once you have done these steps, apply some Dolopril lime (at a rate of 10kg per 200 square metres) to keep the pH level up over the winter and further discourage moss. A little effort now will pay big dividends for many years to come.

Chiefs trade D for forward depth
The Chilliwack Chiefs dealt a defenceman to Vernon Wednesday, send-
ing 1998-born blueliner Darren Rizzolo to the Vipers. In return, the BCHL team picks up two forwards. An 18 year old from Kelowna, Linden Hora has appeared in 54 regular season games for the Vipes. In 52 last season he had one goal, four helpers and 25 penalty minutes. Hora played previously in Kelowna’s Pursuit of Excellence program and with the Major
Midget Hockey League’s Okanagan Rockets. According to Vernon Morning News sports editor Kevin Mitchell, Hora ‘skates a zillion miles an hour.’ It’s appropriate then that he’s been assigned jersey No. 16, worn by former Chiefs speedster Mason Boh. The other acquisition is 1998-born Tak Anholt, a graduate of Abbotsford’s Yale Hockey Academy prep team.
Anholt is reunited with last season’s Lion linemates, Jesse Lansdell and Kohen Olischefski. In 24 games with Yale, Anholt tallied 28 goals and 36 assists. He also got into five games with the Penticton Vees, where he recorded one helper. Hora, Anholt and their new team open the season Saturday night with a 7 p.m. puck drop against the Coquitlam Express at Prospera Centre.
First fundraiser for new baseball team Chilliwack’s new Canadian College Baseball Conference team is hosting a fundraiser golf tournament Sept. 25 at The Falls Golf Club. For $150, golfers will get 18 holes (with a golf cart), a steak/salmon buffet dinner and a shot at prizes.
The event includes a guest speaker. Kevin Williams is the director of business and corporate relations for Major League Baseball’s Seattle Mariners, and should have some interesting thoughts. Coaches and players from the team will circulate throughout
the day, including head coach Shawn Corness. “I think it’s going to be fun to talk baseball and talk to people about our program, our vision and where we want to go with things,” he said. “Getting to meet new people who may support the program,
that’s exciting and I’m looking forward to it.” For more info, email golftournament@theyard.email or phone Sharan Narang at 778-8787285. ● The team sees its first fall-ball action Saturday
with back-to-back games against the Vancouver Island Baseball Institute. First pitch is 1 p.m. at Fairfield Island. See next We d n e s d a y ’ s Progress sports section for more on the team, including a look at its uniform and logo.
For many golfers, the offseason golf months are a time to put their clubs in the garage until spring emerges the following year. However, if you didn’t accomplish your golf goals in 2015, the fall and winter months are a great opportunity to get your game ready for 2016. As a golf professional, I see many students in the spring and summer who have a serious problem to fix. For anyone who has played golf and tried to improve their game, they should know that this is not an easy feat. Where are these players during the winter months? They T hey should be thinking about making those changes now. To make a serious swing change, a golfer must commit to professional instruction, as well as several hours of practice time before this change becomes natural. Many players who seek this improvement during the ‘peak’ golf season may find themselves in a fit of frustration as they try to enjoy outings, events or even tournaments. Instead, why not dedicate the winter months with not so ideal golf weather to improving your game? That T hat way when the warm weather w eather returns, you can enjoy your game and not be as concerned about making improvements? Tour professionals know this, and prepare for their upcoming season by putting in hard work during the off season. This allows for changes to be ready during the important tournaments of the year. If you would like to see drastic change to your golf swing or other golf skills and mechanics, seek out a
golf professional now and create an offseason training plan that suits your time and budget. Some examples of this type of improvement are fixing the slice or hook, making more consistent contact, creating more power or distance, improving the putting stroke and learning a reliable chipping technique to name a few. If any of these issues sound familiar to you, now w is the time for change! This should also include a golf fitness program. Many players create serious compensations in theirr golf swing because of physical limitations to their body. Improving your fitness level specific for golf can create more mobility, and power, as well as prevent injury. Be sure to talk to yourr local golf professional to recommend a golf fitness coach in your area. Finally, if you are seeking an update to your golf equipment, the fall and winterr are when new products are launched. Be sure to be fitted properly for new equipment by y your local golf professional. By the time spring arrives, you will be comfortable with your new gear and ready to play some great golf. Make the this golf season your best ever. Prepare now by seeking professionals to help with your swing and equipmentt changes, and start a fitness program to get your game in shape for 2016.

On the road for their last four games, Chilliwackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Valley Huskers finally return
home this weekend for a Saturday afternoon BC Football Conference tilt. Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Westshore Rebels are in town for a 2 p.m. kickoff at Exhibition Stadium as the Huskers go looking for their first win. The team is 0-6 and their last game was a 53-0 loss to the Vancouver Island Raiders Aug. 29 in
Nanaimo. The Huskers and Rebels have met once already this season, with Westshore beating Chilliwack 45-15. â&#x2014;? The final home game of the season, on Oct. 3, will see the Huskers partnering with the Rotar y International World Drive to Eradicate Polio. Three local Rotary
chapters (ChilliwackMt. Cheam, ChilliwackFraser and Hope) are involved. Fifty per cent of the revenue generated from that game, against the Raiders, will be donated to the cause. Tickets for home games are $10, with children 12 and under admitted free. Get more info at valleyhuskers.org.
Curling club hosting open house The Chilliwack Curling Club is hosting a free open house Saturday and Sunday from 1 to 4 p.m. The public is invited to stop by, give the sport a try and perhaps sign up for the CCCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Learn to Curl clinic, which runs Sept. 15-17 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. The cost of the clinic is $20. See curlchilliwack.org for more information.
Midget Giants squash Spartans
Chilliwackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s midget football Giants opened their season on the road with an impressive 31-14 win over the Victoria Spartans. The Giants stormed out to an early lead when running back Cam Lampart found the endzone. Six minutes later, a Brendon Briden to Marius Anghel scoring strike put the locals up 13-0. After a 47 yard Nashon Douglas field goal, Briden and Anghel teamed up again to send the Giants to halftime up by 23. Ryland Jantzen led a suffocating defence that locked down the
Spartans for most of the day. Victoria scored two TDs early in the second half to get within nine points, but the Giants put the game away when Briden scrambled for a score. The Giants are home this weekend, facing the North Surrey Bears at Townsend Park. â&#x2014;? Chilliwackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s peewee Red Giants crushed the Blue Giants 34-0 in the season opener for both teams. Travis Richley, Jaxon Visser and Austin Wegener had touchdowns for the Red Giants, their paths paved by offensive linemen Dayton Baker, Garemy Mussel, Jake Sondervang, Matieus Chapmen, Logan Head, Dayton Roger, Aven Jacura, Tyler Kelly and Taylor Both. Ben Uz booted the extra points. Kai Manning pro-
duced a quarterback sack on defence, with CJ Robinson forcing and recovering a fumble. Raiden Mastin was a special-teams standout, recovering two onside kicks. â&#x2014;? Atom action saw Chilliwackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Blue Giants fall 20-14 to the Meadow Ridge Gold Knights. The Giants started strong with running back Pierson Capstick rambling 50 yards to the one yard line. Quarterback Carter Dallas snuck in for
the score and an 8-0 Chilliwack lead. A 60 yard Capstick TD run gave Chilliwack a 14-12 lead with five minutes to go, but the D couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hold off the Knights, who surged ahead with a minute to go. The Giants D was led by Brooklyn GrovesVula, who earned player of the game honours. Logan Duff and Ridley Mastin were equally disruptive on the defensive line. Keegan Mitchell recovered two onside kicks.

to see what the other teams are bringing to the table. “Looking further down the road, with our conference championship being at our home course in Chilliwack, that’s a big plus for us. And then of course, we turn around the very next week and we’ve got the national championships here. With the group of players we have, I think we should be competitive.” Bertram has waved goodbye to Chilliwack native Aaron Pauls, who represented Canada each of the last two summers at world university competitions. But UFV’s eight-player roster still has enough depth to cause the kind of headaches that coaches don’t mind having. It’s legitimately difficult for Bertram to settle on a five-man lineup in a given week. Connor O’Dell, a fourth-year golfer from Maple Ridge, finished second in last season’s PacWest individual standings, won the Kwantlen tournament,
and was named a CCAA All-Canadian. Zach Olson (Strathmore, AB) was right behind O’Dell in third place in the PacWest in 2014, and Chilliwack’s Connor McLellan is coming off a very promising rookie season. Returning veterans Kaleb Fisher and Cody Stewart nabbed the last two spots in the lineup for this week’s UBCO event, but they’ll be pushed on a weekly basis by Harrison Clegg and rookies Nathan Bahnman and Ryan Graf. “We’re lucky that we have quite a bit of depth to our lineup,” Bertram said. “One, two and three in our lineup, those spots are pretty well-established. But when you get down to four and five, you’ve got five players looking at those thinking they want them.” “I can tweak the lineup here and there and try some things out, but ultimately the goal is to have our best five firing on all cylinders for nationals.”

Without a single golf ball yet struck or a single birdie yet made, the University of the Fraser Valley men’s golf team can rest assured they’ll be participating in a historic season. This weekend, the Cascades open the campaign with a tournament in Kelowna hosted by UBC Okanagan – the first of four PacWest conference events. Three weeks hence, they’ll host the fourth and final PacWest tourney at their home course, Chilliwack Golf Club. The conference championship is a big deal in its own right, but it’s just an appetizer for what’s to follow: the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association’s
PING National Championships. UFV hosts nationals for the first time, Oct. 13-16 at Chilliwack Golf Club. It’s tantalizing to think what kind of medal haul home course advantage might yield for the Cascades, who have done extremely well even when they’ve had to hit the road. UFV has recorded podium finishes at six of the last eight CCAA championships, highlighted by doublegold for the men’s and women’s teams in 2013. Last season, the women earned national silver and the men took bronze. But head coach Chris Bertram won’t be caught looking too far ahead. “This weekend is really important, because our fall season is a real sprint,” he noted. “If we don’t get out of the gates fast, it’s very hard to get caught up. We always look at the first tournament as an important benchmark for us. It’s also the first time we get

Henry Braun 20 August 1925 4 September 2015
Henry was born in Muensterberg, Sagradovka, Ukraine to Jakob & Helene Braun. His early years in Ukraine were marked with hardship due to political instability, the flight westward during the war and time in a prisoner of war camp. Sadly, post-war repatriation separated Henry from his parents and siblings who were returned to Russia. He immigrated to Canada in 1948 with his oldest brother, Jake, working as a farm laborer in Alberta to pay for the travel costs. He met and then married Annie Peters in Chilliwack in 1951 and settled in Sardis to raise their family and build a life in a new country. His primary employment roles were with the BC Highways Department and later with the Chilliwack General Hospital. He brought a positive attitude to his work and valued the relationships he created with his co-workers. A member of Eden Mennonite Church, he was a dedicated volunteer who expressed his faith through service and a welcoming smile. In retirement, Henry & Annie cultivated relationships with friends and neighbours and even travelled to Germany to be reunited with family. Henry is lovingly remembered by his children: Helen (Harry) Pauls, Garry (Sandy) Braun, Betty (Simon) Stubbs, seven grandchildren and six greatgrandchildren and brother Jacob (Helen). He was predeceased by his wife Annie, parents Jakob & Helene, brother Aron and sisters Liese and Anna. A celebration of life service will be held Friday, Sept 11 at 2pm, Eden Mennonite Church, 46551 Chilliwack Central Road, Chilliwack. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Mennonite Central Committee (Material Aid.)

Francis
Laura Evelyn September 26, 1920 - August 29, 2015
Our beautiful, feisty Mum and Nan passed away August 29 in Chilliwack General Hospital. She did it in her own time and with her usual flair - stubborn to the end. Predeceased by her parents Ethel and William Golding of Halifax, NS and by her husband of 57 years, Jim Francis, whom she met and fell in love with when both were 12 years old. She is survived by daughters Wendy Francis and Leslie Hurtubise (Al) and 5 grandchildren, (Scott, Laura, Mark, Jackie and Nick); and 5 great grandchildren (Emma, James, Megan, Samantha and Kyle). Laura was an only child who learned independence early in life. She was a proud, generous and intelligent woman who held a BA from Dalhousie and later a Library Science degree from the University of Ottawa. Always a lover of books, crosswords and bridge, she believed in life-long learning (but still refused to take on the intricacies of high tech). In her youth Mum took up Scottish dancing for several years and was active in a variety of sports, including sailing, yoga, tennis, curling and golf. She took a keen interest in all the tournaments on TV when she got older. Mum was also a bit of a gambler. She loved to “play the ponies” at Hastings Park and the “one armed bandits” at the casinos. She faithfully bought 649 tickets every week in the hope of “winning it big” one day. Mum and Dad spent four years in Germany on Dad’s final military posting. From there they were able to see a great deal of Europe, enjoying all the cultural high spots. It was one of Mum’s fondest memories. Upon retirement, the two of them travelled a great deal in North America, fishing and camping, or following the pro golf tours. Extremely active in the Chilliwack community, our mother was a member of the Chilliwack PEO, Book Club, several bridge clubs and was a long time volunteer for the Chilliwack Hospital Auxiliary. She was also the Ladies Club Captain at the Chilliwack Golf and Country Club. Laura lived her life to the fullest and we are grateful to have had her in our lives. She will now undoubtedly be smiling down on us as she dances in her garden in heaven. A celebration of Life will be held at 11:00am, Saturday, October 3 at St. Thomas Anglican Church, 46048 Gore Avenue, Chilliwack. No flowers please. Donations can be made to BC Cancer, Heart and Stroke, Chilliwack PEO or the Chilliwack Hospital Auxiliary. 9/15F_FO11

Restaurant Supervisor
BISHOP, Ariel May June 17, 1923 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; May 10, 2015
Sadly Mom passed away on Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day, May 10, 2015 at Cumberland Lodge. She was the daughter of an English Canadian Robert (Bob) Ferguson Lennox and an American, Esther Ann Stepman. Her birth on June 17, 1923 took place in Eureka, Montana. Her stay in Montana was short. They lived Roosville, B.C. until 1925 when they moved to Chilliwack, living on McConnell Road, now Castleman Road, near her Uncle Joe Lennoxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farm. In 1933 they moved into the B.C. Forest Serviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Assistant Ranger Residence at Cultus Lake. Mom attended her first year of school at Camp River School. Following that she attended schools in Sardis and Chilliwack, graduating in 1942. In 1943 she attended Pitman Business College in Vancouver and took a position with an insurance firm in the Credit Foncier Building. During her school years Mom met Leonard Dale Bishop, a Sardis lad. On July 18, 1945 she married her school chum in the Chapel at the Comox air base where Dad was serving in the RCAF. Following his discharge that year, they settled in the Comox Valley, first in Royston, then in Courtenay. While Mom was our home support she enjoyed gardening, camping, boating, fishing and touring with Dad. Outside the home she was a long-time member of Courtenayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cedar Rebekah Lodge No. 77. Predeceased by Dale in 2014, Mom is survived by son Paul, daughter Rosemary (Raymond), grandson, Keegan, sister-in-law Joeslyn Bishop, Sardis, niece Anne, nephews Bruce and David and several Canadian and American cousins. Mom and Dad will be interred near her Mother in Chilliwack Cemeteries. Thank you to Dr. Reggler, Dr. Blacklock, Home & Community Care and the doctors and nurses at Cumberland Lodge for your caring support.

GOODEY
Gwendoline Mary (Stratton) It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Gwendoline Mary Stratton Goodey. Gwen was born August 12, 1920 in Alton, Hampshire, England and peacefully passed away on September 8 in the Chilliwack General Hospital, Chilliwack, BC from complications of a fall. She was the daughter of Leo Leonard Stratton and Edith Jane Trimmer (both deceased) and was predeceased by three siblings (Mick, Ted and Pat) and two half-siblings Dorothy and Peter. Gwen was also predeceased by her husband CWO Charles Wilfred (Butch) Goodey on July 28, 1989 and stepson Lewellyn (Bud) Goodey. Gwen is survived by son Michael (Donna), two grandchildren Candice (Dean) Mikkelsen, and Tara (Chris) Sudermann and great grandson Nicholas Sudermann and also by son Gordon, two grandchildren Dean and Chandra (Adam) Cosby and great grandchildren Beckett and Lillian. She is also survived by Bud Goodeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s children Barbara (Al) Cunningham, Loyal (Colleen) Goodey, Brenda (Jim) McKinney and Geneva (Martin) Reynen and their children and grandchildren and many nieces and nephews and their families in Canada, England and Australia will remember her with fond memories. Gwen was very proud of being a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;war brideâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and crossed the Atlantic on the medical ship, the Isles de France arriving at Pier 21 in Halifax after a harrowing crossing with her two young sons in 1944. They arrived in Cultus Lake and later were the first family to occupy PMQs in Camp Chilliwack in 1945. After many postings across Canada and back, they retired from the Canadian Armed Forces and stayed in Chilliwack in 1965. Gwen and Butch enjoyed many years of camping and traveling during their retirement years. Gwen was very involved in her communities throughout the years. In Camp Chilliwack she was instrumental in establishing a Sunday School, and was involved in Cubs, Scouts, Girl Guides, Teen Town and School PTA. She belonged to St. Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Church, All Sappersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Chapel and Carmen United throughout her life and sang in their choirs and helped with food preparation and flowers. Gwen belonged to many organizations throughout her life and was a Life Member of the Chilliwack Hospital Auxiliary, receiving her 50 year pin in March 2015; and a Life Member of both the BC Association of Health Care Auxiliaries and CFB Historical Society. She belonged to the FSNA organization and The Retired Sappers Association as well as being honoured by the Chilliwack Rotary Club and received the Paul Harris Fellow Award.
