District makes plea for new southside school

■ W ORKING O N T HE R AILROAD

More than 400 new students this year Jessica Peters The Progress The Chilliwack School District desperately needs a new elementary school, according to a staff report laid out for the board on Tuesday. There are 404 new students in the district this year, mostly in primary grades. That’s enough to fill an average-sized elementary school — if only Chilliwack had an empty one. The opposite is true. Chilliwack’s schools are bursting at the seams, with about 70 portables in use across the district. The new students are spread across town, but the most striking growth is at sites on the south side, where schools were already at a critical breaking point. Home construction has been steady in south side neighbourhoods, including Promontory, Garrison and Peach Road, and the growth is showing no signs of abating. Chilliwack is expected to reach 100,000 residents by 2021, according to the city’s official community plan. The school district’s secretar y treasurer, Gerr y

Slykhuis, said populations are booming across the Fraser Valley, and that trickles down to the school level. Having a bolstered student population is generally a good news story, as each student equals more funding from the government. But that money is directed to operational costs. For capital projects, there is a different funding process. And it’s one that had been held up for a few years, as the province reviewed capital plans. That review is complete. “We don’t know yet if there’s any money for new schools,” said Slykhuis. But the board is writing to the ministry of education to plead their case in support of a new school. Where that school would be built remains a bit unclear yet. Slykhuis said the ideal plan would have been Promontory. “That would be ideal, but if you could find 10 flat acres up there for under a billion dollars…,” he said. And expanding Promontory wouldn’t work either, he said. There already is limited field space at the hillside school. So, the search is on for a suitable site. As the school district appeals to the ministry, Continued: SCHOOL/ p10

Police seeking information after remains found of missing man Vikki Hopes Black Press Human remains found Oct. 8 on Norrish Creek Road, a remote logging area north of Mission, have been identified as David Charles Urquhart, 26, a man reported

missing from Maple Ridge and known to frequent Chilliwack. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) reported Wednesday morning that the BC Coroners Service had identified the remains, which were found by a hunter.

Mission RCMP called in IHIT, which is now heading the investigation into what they have deemed a “suspicious death.” Urquhart was last seen in the Maple Ridge area in late August and was reported missing to Ridge Meadows RCMP on Aug. 31.

On Oct. 5, police issued a press release about his disappearance, saying “new information (had) surfaced, leading investigators to seek the public’s help” with the search. Urquhart was known to frequent areas such as Chilliwack, Abbotsford and Mission.

Woman electrocuted, dogs killed in bizarre accident Jessica Peters Black Press One woman is in hospital and her two beloved dogs have died following a tragic electrocution Sunday. A Harrison Mills resident was walking her dogs in a harvested corn field near her home at about 4 p.m. on Oct. 18. Neighbours believe the trio had been walking through the field when the dogs headed toward a sagging power line. All three were electrocuted, but the woman managed to scream for help. She was heard by a woman who was camping at the Kilby

Provincial Park, just over the dike. That witness ran to the top of the dike just in time to see the woman in flames, and 911 was called immediately. That quick action may have saved the woman’s life, says neighbour Ted Chapula. He knows the woman who was electrocuted, in the small community they often saw each other while out walking, and would briefly chat or say hello. Now, Chapula and his wife are caring for their neighbour’s many animals. “We would talk whenever we’d walk by,” he says. “Her dogs were like her children. She was definitely an animal lover.”

He said the SPCA has been called to take care of the animals, but they would need a warrant to do so. Meanwhile, the woman is in critical care being treated for severe burns. One of the animals Chapula is taking care of is a duckling that was living in the woman’s living room. “He’s quite affectionate,” he says. “He kept following me all around the house this morning.” He hopes that the story reaches the woman who reacted so quickly to the call for help. “I would like to know who she is,” he says, and how important it was for her to investigate the

Progress made in the community forest Sam Bates The Progress The Chilliwack Park Society is hosting their next community trail building day on Saturday, Oct. 24 at 2 p.m. Thanks to the work of countless, dedicated volunteers in the community, the 1.5 km beginner loop and the 2 km moderate loop are both completed. Students from the Unity Christian School shop classes have busily been installing drainage culverts. Justin Jonk from QPL Excavating has volunteered his time and equipment to build the initial access trail. Educational and informative signage plans are in the works, with a coordinated effort between the Chilliwack Park Society, the City Parks department and First Nations groups. Saturday’s efforts will focus on cleaning up a cedar picnic shelter onsite, installing culverts, and cleaning up the beginner loop trail. Though the trails are already getting some use, project manager Marc Greidanus says that they hope to hold their grand opening in the spring, with more trails to come over the winter. The Chilliwack Community Forest is located at 51996 Allan Road. To take part in the trailbuilding on Saturday Oct. 24, bring closed-toed shoes, work gloves, a shovel and water. Trail-building begins at 2 p.m. and will take place rain or shine. To learn more about the project, visit chillliwackparksociety.ca.

onto the field, Chapula and another neighbour retrieved the dead dogs and buried them in the woman’s yard. “She would have wanted them there,” he said. It’s believed the power line came down that Thanksgiving weekend in a very windy storm caused by Hurricane Oho. A cottonwood tree branch came down on the line, creating a loop. Chapula found a dead raccoon, further decomposing, in the same area. “Electricity is always looking for a ground, and those dogs came within the perimeter,” he adds. Continued: QUESTIONS/ p4

screaming. “It’s just a sad, sad, sad situation,” he added. “Who would have thought that someone taking their dogs for a walk would get electrocuted.” Chapula did not witness the event, but he was there in the aftermath once it became obvious something was going on. He had been helping another neighbour with a plumbing job, and heard a dog barking — that was a third dog of the woman’s. First responders were on the scene quickly, power was turned off to the sagging power line, and the woman was taken to hospital. After it was deemed safe to go

For months, anti-Conservative campaigners from environmentalists to veterans tried to persuade like-minded voters to coalesce behind the strongest opponent in each riding. But as the dust settles on the Liberals’ powerful majority victory, it’s unclear if those strategic voting attempts had great effect, other than to demolish Green Party hopes to add seats. Organizations like LeadNow and the Dogwood Initiative funded riding-level polls to try to help guide progressive voters. LeadNow recommended NDP candidates in 11 B.C. ridings, and the Liberals for two seats on the North Shore. All but three of those chosen candidates won their races. One notable exception was the choice of the NDP candidate in Vancouver-Granville who ended up third behind the Liberal victor and the Conservative runner-up as voters apparently disregarded the advice. Mario Canseco, vice-president of Insights West, which did polling for Dogwood, said strategic voting attempts appear to have had more effect on Vancouver Island than in the Lower Mainland, where those efforts were swamped by the strength of the Liberal wave. “There are certain pockets where strategic voting worked very well and probably enabled some NDP victories,” he said, adding a few New Democrats were elected on the Island who otherwise would not likely have prevailed over Conservatives. LeadNow made no recommendations in some ridings pre-

sumed to be safe Conservative seats that ended up hotly contested. Those included South Surrey-White Rock, where Conservative Dianne Watts narrowly prevailed, as well as Mission-Matsqui-Fraser Canyon and Cloverdale-Langley City, where Liberals unexpectedly captured turf that traditionally went Tory. It’s difficult, Canseco said, for progressive strategists to get enough granular riding-level data on individual races to gauge how they are evolving in time to be useful to voters. Strategic voting was based on the premise that Liberals, NDP and Green supporters would risk leaving room for Conservatives to win many races unless they first settled on a single consensus candidate. A shorter campaign might have resulted in a Conservative victory, he said. Instead, the Liberals had more time to build momentum and present leader Justin Trudeau as a viable prime minister. Canseco doesn’t accept one theory that the red wave resulted mainly from the Conservatives’ choice to emphasize the niqab issue in Quebec, harming NDP chances there and making the Liberals seem the more obvious alternative for the anyone-butHarper movement. He said NDP leader Tom Mulcair simply did not perform as well in debates or on the campaign trail as he did before in the House of Commons, and the choice to balance the budget made him seem like “a small ‘C’ Conservative” compared to the bolder Liberals. “They weren’t able to solidify this idea that they were the vehicle for change,” Canseco said.

QUESTIONS from page 3 The power line was a short line going to a pumphouse in the field. It was hanging about two feet above the ground. “The 20 or 25 people in the immediate proximity are absolutely bewildered,” he says. “We wonder how this situation could have been avoided.” Some neighbours believe BC Hydro had been informed of the power line sagging. But a spokesperson said that is not the case. They have investigated the site, Simi Heer told Black Press. “We have no record of a report of the damaged line to BC Hydro. Our reports and res-

toration centre records are not showing any instances of power outages and we also do not have any records of a downed or damaged power line being reported to us.” Heer added that they were on site on Monday gathering information, and sent out condolences to the woman. “Our thoughts are with her, her family and the community at this time and we sincerely hope that she will recover,” Heer said. One of the first people on the scene was a couple named Heike and Jurgen Wiegand, from Hamburg, Germany. They had been camping at Kilby, and

found a safe way to walk to the woman, to wait for the ambulance. “We ran to the woman and spoke to her,” Heike wrote in an email to The Progress. “She was then a little quieter. Until the ambulance came I gave her Reiki.” Reiki is a Japanese healing technique based on channeling energy into a patient by touch, to activate healing. The Wiegands, who are leaving Canada for Germany today, said they are hoping to hear of a recovery. “We hope that the woman is healthy again … our thoughts are with her,” Heike said.

She said IHIT is working closely with Fraser Valley police, the coroner’s office and numerous support units to determine what happened to Urquhart. Ashton said anyone who was in the area of Norrish Creek Road in late August or early

News Washington grapples with stoned drivers Tom Fletcher

ALL FRAMES

Black Press Washington state police are dealing with more drivers impaired by marijuana since its recreational use was legalized last year, and B.C. is preparing for similar problems as a new federal government prepares to follow suit. Chief John Batiste of the Washington State Patrol visited Victoria this week to take part in an annual cross-border crime forum. He acknowledged that it’s a problem since the state legalized marijuana sales to adults in 2014. “We are seeing an uptick in incidents on our roadways related to folks driving under the influence of marijuana and drugs in general,” Batiste told reporters after a meeting with B.C. Justice Minister Suzanne Anton. He explained the state’s new law setting a limit for marijuana’s active ingredient in blood, similar to the blood-alcohol limit. But without a roadside testing device, police are relying on training from

What they need now is a roadside testing device that provides evidence of impairment that will hold up in court, Batiste said. Prime Ministerdesignate Justin Trudeau made a highprofile promise to legalize marijuana before winning a majority government Oct. 19. In B.C., police can

charge drivers if they show signs of impairment, whether from drugs or fatigue. In alcohol use cases, drivers are typically charged with impaired driving and driving with a blood alcohol content of more than .08 per cent. Va n c o u v e r - b a s e d Cannabix Technologies is developing such a device. The company issued a statement Wednesday, noting that Trudeau has promised

to begin work on legalizing marijuana “right away” and a reliable method of enforcement is needed across North America. The company says it is developing a handheld device that can detect marijuana use within the past two hours. Saliva and urine tests can come up positive for marijuana “long after intoxication has worn off,” the company stated.

Denham star ted investigating the Highway 16 information request after a complaint from Tim Duncan, made after Duncan left his job as executive assistant to Transportation Minister Todd Stone.

B.C. welcomes Trudeau’s climate, infrastructure plan Tom Fletcher Black Press Premier Christy Clark is emphasizing cooperation with the new Liberal government in Ottawa on climate change and infrastructure spending, while avoiding comment on plans to run deficits and legalize marijuana. Clark said Tuesday she is looking for ward to having Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accompany premiers to Paris at the end of November for the next United Nations climate conference. Trudeau said Tuesday he is looking forward to changing Canada’s reputation as a “less than enthusiastic actor” on climate policy, but he wants provinces to take the lead. Clark said B.C. will outline its “Climate 2.0” plan before leaving, and it will add to the carbon tax on fossil fuels with measures aimed at the “built environment” and other ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Trudeau’s infrastructure plan is in “complete alignment” with B.C.’s efforts to grow the economy, with BC Hydro alone spending $2.5 billion a year over the next decade, Clark said. She sidestepped a question on Trudeau’s deficit plans, noting that a prime minister has to govern for all provinces and B.C. is “an outlier” with operat-

Clark was even more cautious with Trudeau’s plans to legalize and regulate marijuana, as Vancouver and other cities grapple with unregulated medical pot dispensaries. “If and when they make changes, we’ll work with them to make sure that the changes can be effective in B.C.,” she said.

The NDP’s Gord Johns won the new riding of Courtney-Alberni, defeating long-time Conservative MP John Duncan for an NDP sweep of Vancouver Island, except for Green Party leader Elizabeth May in Saanich-Gulf Islands. “I’m also delighted that the countr y voted for change in massive numbers,” Horgan said. “And that’s good news for me as well, because in 2017 there’s going to be a desire for change.”

Are you tired of feeling saggy, lumpy, pinched or strained? Well you’re not alone. As you’ve probably seen on Oprah or read in women’s magazines, over 80 per cent of all women wear the wrong size bra. Here’s where Barb Chapman, the Bra Lady, comes in. Due to the overwhelming response to the previous clinic, Chapman is coming to CHILLIWACK, FRIDAY, OCT. 30 to outfit you with the best possible bra for your body. Chapman said she will be seeing clients on a one-on-one basis, explaining the benefits of good bras and measuring their bodies properly. “Most women just want to find a good-fitting bra that’s not uncomfortable,” Chapman said. “What they don’t realize is that a good support bra is also important for blood circulation and enhanced lymph drainage.” Chapman has over 200 bra sizes available for ordering, ranging from 30AA to 52KK. It’s likely that you’ll fit somewhere between those sizes. She offers these questions for women to ask themselves: • Do you have a drawer full of bras but none that fit comfortably? • Does your bust line “bounce” when you walk while wearing your “everyday” bra? • Do you overflow the cup of your bra? • Do your bra straps dig into your shoulders leaving red and painful marks, or do they slip off of your shoulders? • Does your bra ride up in the back because you tighten the straps to give you added support? • Have you ever begun an exercise class only to drop out because your breasts ached from lack of support while jumping or running? If you answer yes to any of these you are in need of a new bra, and a custom one (JEUNIQUE, NUTRIMETICS, COLESCE) could be the way to go.

A vote for change

The Chilliwack

Progress

R AESIDE

A new political day has dawned in Canada after voters answered the underlying question of this marathon election campaign. While the scope of the Liberal victory clearly shows that new Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was, in fact, ready, what the results really show is that it was the Canadian people who were ready – for change. Trudeau has a strong mandate to implement his agenda, with the Liberals controlling a majority of Parliament. That agenda seemed to resonate with Canadians, who overwhelming supported the Liberal plan to boost infrastructure spending at the risk of a few deficit budgets; to reduce taxes on the middle class by shifting a bit more of the burden to the wealthy; to create a Canada more welcoming to those fleeing crises around the world. But Canadians were perhaps even more clear on what they didn’t want: They didn’t want a government that viewed climate change with skepticism and saw scientists as a tool to be used at the government’s disposal; a government that greeted questions on missing and murdered Indigenous women with a shrug; a government that would pursue a failed war on drugs at all costs; and a government that saw creating fear and division as a winning electoral strategy. But it’s not as though Conservatives saw a massive erosion of support. The Tories received only 200,000 fewer votes in 2015 than they did when they received a convincing majority in 2011. It would appear it was the three million Canadians who chose to sit out the 2011 election who were the biggest reason behind the increase to the Liberals vote total. And that is a change that we should all be able to get behind. More than 17 million Canadians cast a ballot in the country’s 42nd federal election, making for Canada’s highest voter turnout since 1993. That means more than a win for any one political party, as it is a victory for Canada and democracy as a whole. ~ Black Press

L OCALLY G LOBAL

After a majority win, now the work begins Congratulations go to Mark Strahl for his re-election victory Monday night. But on his return to Ottawa he’s going to find a profoundly different landscape. Not only has the Conservative Party been pushed into official Opposition status but Stephen Harper has stepped down and the party is seeking his replacement. What a historic difference a night makes! Canadians clearly voted for change, so much so that Liberal red swept across the country from coast to coast. Defying enormous odds, the party went from third place status with just 36 seats at dissolution of the 41st Parliament to 184 seats, safely above the 170 needed for majority rule. That represents 54.4 per cent of the new total of 338 seats and 39.5 per cent of the popular vote. Canadians came out in droves

to the polling stations. Voter turnout was 68.49 per cent, the highest since the 1993 election and a total of 88 women were elected to the House of Commons, a bit higher than the 76 who were elected in the 2011 election. Stunningly, the NDP which was doing so well at Margaret the beginning of EVANS the campaign finished with just 44 seats. The French language debate didn’t help when Mulcair accused Harper of using the niqab issue as a ‘weapon of mass distraction’. Among the stingers that turned Harper’s less than stellar campaign into a sinking ship were the Duffy trial, his response

to the Syrian refugee crisis, the niqab ban, and his ‘old stock Canadians’. Maybe he gained a margin of traction with the TransPacific Partnership, the details of which still haven’t surfaced, but a final mug shot of him posing with Rob Ford looked like a last ditch Tea Party appeal that sealed his fate as a goner. The Conser vatives will be mulling whether they need a re-think or a re-build after the loss of 67 seats. Now Prime Minister-designate Justin Trudeau will be transitioning power swiftly to form the new Liberal government and select his gender-balanced cabinet which he says he will announce on Nov. 4. He’ll need to get up to speed fast as global conferences are right on his heels – the Climate Conference in Paris in November and the G20 in Turkey as well as the APEC and Commonwealth

conferences. By all accounts, provincial premiers are pleased with the Trudeau majority. Their relationship with Ottawa under the Harper government had been rocky at best. Trudeau’s campaign promise was to meet with the premiers within 100 days of taking office which he fully intends to meet. News of Trudeau’s election success swept around the world and congratulations from leaders poured in. Former Vice President Al Gore and UN Secretar y General Ban Ki-moon wasted no time urging Trudeau to take a catch-up leadership role on climate change issues which I have no doubt he will do. The past few days have been a pretty wild political honeymoon. Trudeau is astutely socialmedia savvy. Hugs and selfies

have become his hallmark, a new take on an old fashioned strategy of meeting and listening to Canadians. But the really tough days are ahead. He’s got to deliver on those promises starting with putting $10 billion to work on infrastructure to create jobs, affordable housing and transit for the modern age. His first job is to choose his cabinet. Easy, some say, with 184 to pick from. But in the fallout there will be some bruised egos. And ahead of him in the daily course of political life will be many brutal choices. Some people are going to be angry, sad, disappointed. Trudeau promised to end a decade of negative divisive politics and be the prime minister of all Canadians. You go, Justin!

Youth â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;smarter than thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; The 2015 federal election saw young people out to vote in unprecedented numbers. I have daily contact with young adults because three of my six children are in that age group and my job allows me the privilege of teaching 18-25 year olds. The day after the election I was talking to a young man who said â&#x20AC;&#x153;it was all over social media that we had to stop Harper, but no one really said what we had to stop him from.â&#x20AC;? That conversation prompted this letter. I suppose the newspaper isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a very effective way of communicating with our younger generation, so maybe you can help me. If you think this letter has validity, please pass it on to the young people in your life, and if it appears in the online version of the newspaper, share the link with them. I want to issue a challenge to our young people because our future depends on you: Think for yourselves. Understand that everything you read and hear (including this newspaper and this letter) contains a bias. The mainstream media (television, most newspapers and the movie industry) have long been biased in favor of liberal ideas and against any conservative ones. So when you rush to the polls to #stopstephenharper and answer the call to vote, but #whateveryoudonoblue, stop for a second

and ask yourself, what precisely and exactly do I want to stop him FROM and why am I eliminating â&#x20AC;&#x153;blueâ&#x20AC;? from any possible consideration? Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t swallow a few catchy phrases that you hear via the various mediasâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;because they are often a form of propaganda, did you know that? The dictionary.com definition of propaganda is â&#x20AC;&#x153;communications to the public that are designed to influence opinion. The information may be true or false, but it is always carefully selected for its political effect.â&#x20AC;? Propaganda ceases to influence anyone if people will determine to look into the validity of the ideas they read or hear and decide for themselves whether or not they are going to believe them. There have been other times that propaganda has been widely used. Do some research about the use of propaganda throughout history and ask yourself if you may have unknowingly become susceptible to believing things, not because you have actually reasoned them out for yourself, but rather because you have heard some ideas repeated so many times on so many media outlets that you have just accepted them as true. In terms of electing our government, listen to debates, do research into the candidates, talk to people on both sides of the issue and read things writ-

Voter filled with hope and pride On election night, I wept with pride for my fellow Canadians as we marched en masse to take back our country. Pride that we stood together for decency and old-fashioned values. Pride that so many Canadians rejected sleazy campaign tactics and instead gave overwhelming support to the only leader in the three major parties who refused to engage in mudslinging and fear-mongering. It is a sickening practice that erodes our political system from the inside out and it has been

tolerated in Canada far too long. Perhaps this government could make it illegal. Wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that be nice. Pierre and Margaret did an excellent job in raising their son. I am honoured to know him and I was honoured to vote for him. My heart today is filled with renewed hope for this great country of ours. It has been a long time coming. And I think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to cry again. Well done, everybody! Maureen Kerr

ten by smart liberals and smart conservatives before you make your own decision. In terms of everything else you â&#x20AC;&#x153;believeâ&#x20AC;?: Listen. Read. Talk to smart people on both sides of all issues. And then give some serious thought to your own life and your own experiences and ask yourself how you think things are going. Ask yourself what â&#x20AC;&#x153;ideasâ&#x20AC;? have guided your decisions and behaviors and give some thought to recognizing how living out those ideas has been working for you. That is the ultimate form of freedom and autonomy, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t it? Reasoning out things for yourself and acting on the basis of your own beliefs rather than swallowing catchy media phrases and allowing them to form your belief systems and determine your behavior. When our young people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think for themselves, we are in trouble as a nation. When our young people allow their opinions, beliefs, values and behavior to be dictated by what the various forms of the popular media say, democracy ceases to be effective. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not asking you to come around to my way of thinking, what I am asking is to please think for yourselves. Our nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future depends on you and I know youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re smarter than that.

Getting healthier is getting easier in Chilliwack. Three new playboxes have been added to three main parks, and each one is filled with fun sports equipment like skipping ropes, balls, and air scoop paddles. The boxes are part of a collaboration of numerous partners, who all came together early this week to celebrate the launch at Central

Community Park. Families can now access the boxes by registering for the pad lock code online. They are asked to return the equipment at the end of playtime, so that others can take advantage of the equipment as well. It’s a bit of a risk, with vandalism and theft being a concern. But it’s a chance these partners were willing to take. “We decided that helping families get active

was way too important not to try something like this,” the website states. “For those of you who live in the areas around these parks, perhaps help keep an eye on them? If we come together as a community this could be a really amazing thing!” These Live 5-2-1-0 Playboxes are a project of the Chilliwack Division of Family Practice’s Healthy Kids Initiative, City of Chilliwack, the Early Years table of the Chilliwack Child and Youth Committee, Chilliwack Spor ts Academy, Rotary Club of Chilliwack, and 89.5 The Drive. This project is supported by SCOPE (Sustainable Childhood Obesity through Community Engagement), an initiative of BC Children’s Hospital, that is focused on the Live 5-2-1-0 health

promotion message and aims to work with communities to make the healthy choice the easy choice for children. They created the program to address a number of challenges that families face when trying to stay healthy. That includes parents not being sure how to play with their children, a lack of money to purchase equipment, lack of convenient programs for all, an inability to commit to a structured program, and feelings of social isolation. To register for access to the boxes, which also include books for a variety of young people, visit www.divisionsbc.ca. The boxes are at Central Community Park on Victoria Ave., Landing Centre on Corbould Street, and Watson-Glen Park on Tyson Road.

The plan is called Peach Road elementary, but Slykhuis notes that’s just a placeholder name. “We’re essentially looking for something on the south side, but there really isn’t a whole lot of land available, really, there’s next to nothing,” he said. While talks of a new school in Sardis have been in the works for a while, the time to act is now. “We’re pretty desperate for new space in the south of Chilliwack,” Slykhuis said.

Jeannie Savard (left) has transformed a warehouse on Yale Road into Nightmare on Yale. The haunted attraction is open every night until Halloween. SAM BATES/ PROGRESS

Nightmare on Yale brings nightmares to life Sam Bates The Progress ’Tis the season of screams and spooks. For several years, Jeannie Savard has been filling up her Promontory home with cobwebs and ghouls, and festive visitors from all over. The haunted attraction holds many creepy creatures, some dummied, some alive and ready to jump at you. Savard had the entire neighbourhood and beyond walking through her living room and kitchen, then out into the backyard where they passed the zombie mermaids in the hot tub and the creatures in the cemetery. “But it was getting too big, I had line-ups where you couldn’t see the

street,” Savard said. It became increasingly difficult to keep up with the demand from her home, and the large crowds drew safety concerns. So this year, Savard and friend Tammy Sloan were on the prowl for a new location. After looking for months, they found the warehouse they’d been searching for, on Yale Road next to the Salvation Army. It took three weeks to set up 30 years worth of spooky decorations, but Nightmare on Yale is ready for all brave souls who enter. “This year is bigger than I’ve ever done,” Savard explained. Which means she needed more volunteers than just family and friends. Savard and Sloan reached out to the local school drama classes in

search of live character volunteers. Getting splattered with fake blood and scaring people is certainly a unique way to earn your mandatory volunteer hours. “I’m not a horror-ble person. I go to church on Sundays,” Savard laughed. “I just love the thrill of scaring people. They’re scared, but they’re happy about it.” When they rented the warehouse, the owner was ready to move his old, orange Volkswagen van out of the way. But Savard said “Are you kidding? It’s got a flat tire, it’s rusty… it’s perfect!” The level of detail in the attraction is incredible, but most won’t even realize. “People often don’t absorb the details when they go through, because they’re so scared.” Which is why Savard splits up the attrac-

tion into various scenes, each which tell their own story. There’ll be a circus of horrors, werewolves, demons and plenty of zombies, in places where you often won’t expect. Oh, and if you’ve seen The Walking Dead season five premiere, you might be better prepared than most. Nightmare on Yale (45742 Yale Road) is open every night after 6 p.m. until Halloween. From Sunday to Thursday, it is open until 9 p.m. On Friday and Saturdays, they are open until 11 p.m. Between 6 and 7:30 p.m., the attraction will be kid-friendly, meaning it won’t be as dark and there won’t be live characters jumping out at you. But after that, it’s no holds barred. Due to the increased expenses

SAVE $2

that the new location requires, Savard has to charge admission. Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for kids, and $20 for a family of four. Take $1 off if you bring a nonperishable food item for the food bank. Partial proceeds will go to the Salvation Army and Chilliwack Community Services. Sloan will have her food truck lit-up out front amongst the anxious crowd, decorated as the Roadkill Grill. It’s the one time per year when Sloan will let rats, albeit made of rubber, on the counters of Tammy’s Grill. Visit Nightmare on Yale on Facebook or call 604-799-0167 to learn more. Note: Nightmare on Yale includes a set of stairs and there is a strobe light in one room.

604-391-SHOW(7469)

A Chilliwack woman who has spent much of life living in Cambodia will return to town on Sunday, Oct. 25, to share a presentation of tradition dance. Marie Ens and her team will be at the Chilliwack Alliance Church, with the Rescue Dance Tour. It’s their last stop on a tour that began in Manitoba, and is a fundraiser for Ens’ lifework, the Place of Rescue. Marie first went to Cambodia with her husband and two children in 1961. Later, two more children were added to the family and they lived in

Cambodia for many years until the takeover by the Khmer Rouge forced them to return to Canada. Marie returned to Cambodia as a widow in 1994, and continues her work with Place of Rescue, a safe haven for families living with AIDS, orphan children, orphaned grandmothers, and young, unmarried pregnant women. The Place of Rescue was founded as a Cambodian NGO in 2003. As of April 2014, Rescue was responsible for 522 people, cared for by a staff of more than 100.

Ens acts as an advisor, and has been made an honorary citizen of Cambodia by that country’s prime minister. The Rescue Dance Tour will perform a program of traditional dances and share about the work of Rescue in their lives and the lives of others. Admission is free but donations will be accepted. The show will begin at 6:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 25 at Chilliwack Alliance Church, and everyone is welcome.

native Americans, making them one of the first companion crops. Members of the ‘cucurbitaceae’ family, their close relatives are watermelon, gourds, squash and cantaloupe. Recently a flurry of new pumpkin varieties has being developed. A bush-type variety, called ‘Spirit’, which

has vines that spread only about three feet, delights pumpkin growers who have limited space. It is prolific, much like a zucchini, and harvesting a dozen or more ten to fifteen pound fruits is not uncommon. For more adventurous growers, there are various strains of the ‘Atlantic Giant’

You would need a chainsaw to carve these monsters and a shovel and wheelbarrow to clean them out. They also look ugly. A much nicer giant is ‘Prizewinner’ which averages 90 to 100 pounds and actually looks like a pumpkin. On the sweeter side, smaller is better. ‘Sugar’ or ‘pie’ pumpkins are the traditional varieties for pies. Grown from seed stock imported from China, Stokes Seeds Canada has introduced a series of small varieties like ‘Sweetie Pie’. Considered a delicacy in China, these miniature pumpkins fit nicely in the palm of your hand.

White pumpkins are all the rage, and varieties like ‘Lumina’ and the larger ‘New Moon’ and ‘Full Moon’ are all over websites like Pinterest as the latest and greatest. Flat ribbed varieties, like ‘Cinderella’, are hot too and very unique. ‘Little Lantern’, ‘School Time’ and ‘Orange Smoothie’ will be of interest to young pumpkin growers. They measure only five to seven inches across, but they really produce lots of little, five to eight pound fruits in eight weeks. They make great pies

Orange may be the traditional colour and white a great new novelty, but the colour palette has grown again. ‘Sunlight’, an attractive medium sized round pumpkin, is the first yellow. Pink anyone? ‘Porcelain’, truly a coral-pink, is something quite different. Blue anyone? Well ‘Blue Doll’ is a variety that looks more like a squash than a pumpkin, but its greyblue colour is certainly unique. The All American Winner for this year is ‘Knuckle Head’, a nice orange with green warts all around its surface. Ugly? Yes but in an interesting, fun way. Pumpkin seeds, which are very high in vitamins, are a delicacy in the Middle East.

How to take control of those unwanted eating habits If you only ever eat when you’re hungry, and you stop when you’re satisfied, go ahead and skip this article. If food were only for fuel, we’d all be at a healthy weight and have a peaceful relationship with food. But most of us don’t only eat for energy. Tanja And honSHAW estly, nor should we. As humans, we are emotional, and it’s natural and normal to attach emotion to food. It’s also natural and normal to eat emotionally from time to time. It’s normal to want specific foods for comfort from time to time, or to eat a second helping just because it tastes so darn good! But…the poison is in the dose. If you find yourself late night snacking every night, mindlessly nibbling and snacking throughout the day, or are overly excited to go to Costco just so you can sample the foods, or consistently need a sugary, blended coffee drink each afternoon, and you want to change, this article is for you. You are ready to progress toward a more peaceful relationship with food. What to expect: • A lot of ups and downs. Overcoming emotional eating is not a linear process. • Never to be ‘perfect’. We are emotional beings and it would be silly to try ‘use food only for fuel’. But we want to trend toward a healthy relationship with food so that we have alternative ways to cope with our feelings and to give ourselves what we really need. The poison is in the dose. • You may uncover emotions and feelings that you do not want to experience. Honestly, it can be very painful. Consider working with a counsellor or psychologist. • To learn a lot about yourself in the process. Dealing with unwanted eating habits can be a fascinating learning process. Enjoy the process and appreciate the opportunity to learn. • To need support of

Do not expect yourself to ‘will yourself’

into avoiding emotional eating, or eating out of habit. You need to set yourself up for success, which means planning ahead! I put together a “Transform your Eating

Habits” worksheet to help you with the process. If you think it would help, you can download it at www. ascendfitnesscoaching. com/eatinghabits

Step 1 Identify Triggers: Triggers may be feelings, or specific situations or times of the day. The good news is that we are creatures

of habit, and you likely experience similar triggers each day. Do you find yourself mindlessly snacking or reaching for a glass of wine at 5pm when you come home

from work because you need to unwind. Do you eat when you’re cold, tired or bored? When you procrastinate? After the kids go to bed? Do Continued: HABITS/ p23

Pumpkin primer PUMPKIN from page 20 seed variety called ‘Kakai’. It’s awesome, and its fresh seeds are sweet and nut-like. We all know about those scrumptious pumpkin pies. Another delicious pumpkin dish is made by baking or steaming pumpkin meat, then seasoning it with butter, salt, pepper and molasses. Pumpkin bread and pumpkin cookies stuffed with raisins are popular favourites. In the Caribbean Islands, one of the staple foods is pumpkin soup. The Land Pavilion in Epcot Centre at Disneyworld, Florida, is experimenting with pumpkins as a food source for space expeditions. Trained upward along ropes, the vines grow about thirty feet high and are loaded with perfect ten to fifteen pound pumpkins. It is nice to think that the Jack O’Lantern we carve on Halloween to keep the evil spirits away has a great history and an even brighter future. Let’s hear it for pumpkins!

you nibble on leftovers when you put them away? Maybe it’s when you’re lonely after your kids leave to spend the weekend with your ex. So often we are not actually aware that we are eating emotionally or mindlessly until the food is done. That’s why it’s important to do this exercise ahead of time! Step 2: What do I need? Why am I eating? Again, do this ahead of time. In each situation, determine what you really need. Awareness is the first step! You can also use your food and mood journal to help identify triggers and to help determine what the triggers are. Step 3: Come up with alternatives to eating. Don’t think you can just ‘stop eating’. Habits don’t work that way. We are eating because we need something. It’s just that food isn’t really what we need. With each trigger, come up with a list of things you can do as an alternative to eating. For example, in the 5pm wine and snack example, maybe you could sit down with a cup of tea and journal. Maybe you could listen to music. If you’re procrastinating at work, or are experiencing writers block maybe you could go for a 5-minute walk. If you’re triggered when putting away leftovers, maybe you need to remind yourself that you will eat again next time you’re hungry. Step 4: Set yourself up for success. In each situation, what can you do to set yourself up for success? How can you change your environment to support your goals? Here are some ideas: • Put up sticky notes as reminders. • Get rid of the junk food in your pantry so when you’re not tempted to snack on processed junk. • But a few new types of tea to indulge in. • If passing your favourite drive through triggers you, change your driving route.

In the moment: Here are a few tips to practice in the moment: • Identify and allow yourself to feel the emotion. For example “I feel sad”. You do not have to fix negative emotions. • Before you eat, ask yourself “What do I need right now?” We often eat because we are HUNGRY- but hungry for pleasure, connection,

Wenatchee win There are some good offensive lines in the BCHL this year, writes Jacob Bestebroer

Sukumaran scores two as Chiefs wallop Wild Making his first start in place of injured stopper Aidan Pelino, Matteo Esposito led his Chilliwack Chiefs to a 4-1 BCHL win. Esposito and crew hosted the Wenatchee Wild Wednesday night, giving local fans their first look at an American expansion team that had a record of 8-3-1-1 coming in. The visitors struck first in this one, getting a power play goal from Blake Christensen at 18:30 of the opening frame. But Chilliwack stormed back with three second period goals. Big D-man Connor McCarthy scored for the second straight game, getting the

The Quebec native scored beaten them handily both shorthanded at 2:18 of period times they’ve met this year. The Chiefs blanked them 6-0 three to wrap up the scoring.

Sep. 30 at home and thumped them 6-1 Oct. 9 on the road. Chilliwack welcomes the Alberni Valley Bulldogs to Prospera Centre for a Sunday night game. The teams met just last weekend, with the Chiefs taking a 4-2 decision. The Bulldogs are 4-7-0-1, fourth in the five team Island division. ● With Pelino out for a couple weeks, the Chiefs called up an Abbotsford native to serve as their backup goalie Wednesday night. Eighteen year old Gunnar Neilson was on the bench. He got into one game with the Vernon Vipers last year.

Peterson powers Clan to victory in Idaho A Simon Fraser University freshmen class led by a Chilliwack native continues to fuel the men’s team, leading the Clan to a dominant victory in a dual meet Friday against Whitman College in Moscow Idaho. The men’s team is undefeated after two dual meets to start the season. The Simon Fraser men took all nine individual races and

both relays against Whitman to win 151-53. Freshmen took first place in six of those races and played key roles in both relay victories. Chilliwack Spartan grad Colton Peterson and James Cormier each won twice while sophomore Adrian VanderHelm also won two races. Peterson was an easy winner in the 200-yard individu-

al medley (1:53.40) but was pressed by teammate Justin Kiedrzyn in the 100 free (46.72 to 47.18). Cormier won easily in the 1000 free and edged teammate Keenan Elliott 2:11.14 to 2:12.99 in the 200 breaststroke. VanderHelm, the Clan’s first-ever male competitor in the NCAA championships last year, picked up wins in the 200 freestyle and the 500 free.

The Clan’s other individual winners were freshman Nicholas Lau in the 50 free, freshman Mackenzie Hamel in the 200 butterfly (1:56.28) and Gabriel Lee in the 200 backstroke (1:50.77). The Clan also won the 400 freestyle relay and the 400 medley relay. The Clan returns to competition Saturday against Whitworth University in Spokane.

Chilliwack Minor Lacrosse held its annual general meeting in late September, adding three new faces to the executive. Jamie Scott is back as president, joined by vice presidents Simon Traskey (operations), Brandon Mulligan (development) and Mike Ortutay (marketing). Alex Blesch is the secretary and the organization is still looking for a treasurer.

Wednesday’s 4-1 home ice victory over the Wenatchee Wild was the best game the Chilliwack Chiefs have played this season and equal credit needs to go to both the players and the coaching staff. The Wild are a very quick structured team that sticks to defensive systems. They hope to capitalize on the mistakes that their systems force the opposition into making. Part of their plan is to take away the walls on opposition break outs. The problem for them Wednesday was that that was exactly what the Chiefs were expecting and they were prepared perfectly for it. The Chiefs executed breakouts through the middle of the ice and the Wild were never able to find the counter move to stop it. Credit to the coaching staff for having the players ready and able to execute the game plan. With starting goaltender Aidan Pelino out for up to two weeks with a leg injury, Matteo Esposito will get the bulk of starts in goal and he certainly was up for the challenge on Wednesday. He only faced 27 shots but several of them were from in close, including three during a lengthy Wild two man advantage midway through the third period. The line of Jordan Kawaguchi, Vimal Sukumaran and Darien Craighead was at their best. Sukumaran scored twice to give him a league high 13 on the season. All three of these guys are equally good at setting up plays as they are at scoring goals. There are some good offensive lines in the BCHL this year. So far this season, the Penticton Vees top line of Tyson Jost, Scott Conway and Easton Brodzinski has combined to score 34 goals and 70 points. The Nanaimo Clippers top trio of Sheldon Rempal, Matthew Hoover and Devin Brosseau have 30 goals and 70 points. The Chiefs new top, should they stay together are comparable to those two lines. When the Wenatchee Wild defeated the Chiefs 4-0 in an exhibition game earlier this season at Prospera Centre, they refused to send out their players that were selected among the games three stars. That wasn’t a problem Wednesday as all three stars were Chiefs. Wednesday’s result along with Langley’s 6-2 win in Coquitlam really tightened things up in the Mainland Division. The top four teams are now separated by just three points. Langley and Wenatchee lead with 18 points followed by the Chiefs in third with 17 which is just two more that the fourth place Coquitlam Express. Two games for the Chiefs this weekend. Friday night they travel to Surrey. They get a rare Saturday night off before hosting the Alberni Valley Bulldogs on Sunday. Game time Sunday is 5 p.m. and fans are invited to join the Chiefs players on the ice for a post game skate. Please note that you must be wearing skates to get on the ice and helmets are mandatory for everyone 12 and under. jb@chilliwackchiefs.net

UFV basketball great Wierks still winning awards nity. She is a wonderful example of an Academic All-Canadian where she demonstrates hard work, perseverance, and excellence in all she does. So many have benefited from her kindness, goodwill and desire to serve. I have personally enjoyed getting to know Sarah and I am so proud of all her achievements.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great honour for Sarah to be recognized not just athletically, but for what a great student she was,â&#x20AC;? said Cascades womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball head coach Al Tuchscherer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great recognition to finish her five outstanding years at UFV. She set the standard for our program on the court, in the classroom, and with her work in the community.â&#x20AC;? Wierks grew up in a family where athletic participation was encouraged. Dennis and Debbie Wierks wanted their kids to stay active, but they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t push them into sports. Rather, they allowed Sarah and her siblings â&#x20AC;&#x201C; older sister

www. CHILLIWACK chilliwackford .com 30309

Nicole and younger twins Megan and Mitchell â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to choose which ones they wanted to try. Sarah ended up playing almost every sport available to her as a youngster, before finally focusing on basketball and soccer as a teenager. She shifted exclusively to basketball during her Grade 10 year, and the following summer, she joined the Junior Cascades club program helmed by Tuchscherer. After a stellar high school hoops career at Chilliwack secondary school, she signed with the Cascades, joining her sister Nicole on the squad. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m definitely honoured to win this award,â&#x20AC;? Wierks said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another positive note to end on for me.â&#x20AC;? Upon arriving at UFV in the fall of 2010, Wierks initially found it difficult to balance university academics with the rigorous demands of high-performance athletics. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all you do â&#x20AC;&#x201C; basketball and school,â&#x20AC;?

she recalled with a chuckle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to have very good time management skills, I guess you could say. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My first couple years of university, it was really hard to handle everything, because youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re so unbelievably busy. But as your five years progress, you build skills that help you to excel in academics â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like studying on the bus when thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of noise around you. If you can master that, I feel like you can master anything!â&#x20AC;? Winning a major academic award caught Wierks somewhat offguard â&#x20AC;&#x201C; sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always viewed elder sister Nicole as the elite scholar in the family. Upon graduating from UFV in 2014, Nicole was awarded the Governor Generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Silver Medal in recognition of her academic accomplishments. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s currently in the faculty of medicine at UBC. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I honestly donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m nearly as smart as Nicole, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an absolute genius!â&#x20AC;? Wierks said with a

chuckle, reflecting on her familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s academic legacy at UFV. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really neat to get an award that normally she would

be recognized for. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really proud of the award, and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proud of me, too.â&#x20AC;?

Sarah Wierks of the University of the Fraser Valley womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball program has been selected to receive Canadian Interuniversity Sportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most prestigious academic award. The Chilliwack native is a member of the CIS Top Eight Academic All-Canadian team for the 2014-15 season. She is the first-ever UFV Cascades athlete to achieve the distinction. The elite group was announced on Wednesday, and will be honoured in Ottawa on Nov. 16 when his Excellency the Right Honourable David Johnston, Governor General of Canada, presents the third annual Governor Generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Academic All-Canadian Commendation to the eight recipients during a ceremony at Rideau Hall, his official residence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are so proud of Sarahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extraordinary accomplishments in her studies, on the basketball court and in our community,â&#x20AC;? said Dr. Mark Evered, UFV president and vice-chancellor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Her skill, passion and compassion inspire us all. We consider it a great privilege to count her among our alumni and we thank her for her leadership, dedication and service.â&#x20AC;? Every year, a growing number of CIS student-athletes are recognized as Academic All-Canadians, having maintained an average of 80 per cent or better over the academic year while competing for one â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or more â&#x20AC;&#x201C; of their universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s varsity teams. In 2014-15, a record 3,096 students achieved the prestigious status, eclipsing the previous mark of 2,861 set a year ago. Among these outstanding individuals, one female and one male student-athlete from each of the four CIS regional associations are selected annually to make up the Top Eight. Wierks and Calgary Dinos football player Andrew Buckley are

the representatives from the Canada West conference. That Wierks is still winning awards nearly eight months after playing her last game with the Cascades, and four months after walking the stage at convocation, is indicative of how spectacular her UFV career was. In her five seasons, Wierks was not only one of the most dominant players in Canada West, she also helped put the Cascades womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball program â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which joined the league in 2006-07 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; on the map. A f t e r helping the Cascades to four straight Canada West Final Four appearances (2011 to 2014), culminating in a conference silver medal and a historic CIS national bronze medal 2014, the six-foot-two centre enjoyed her finest individual season in 2014-15. Wierks wrapped up her university career as a Canada West first-team all-star and CIS secondteam All-Canadian, led the country in rebounding (15.4 per game) and was fourth in scoring (19.2), broke or tied six conference records, and graduated with 30 team records. A four-time CIS Academic All-Canadian, Wierks maintained a cumulative grade point average of 3.69, including impressive 4.0 and 4.08 marks in her last two semesters. In the community, the 22 year old was involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Fraser Valley, was part of the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Shoot for the Cure fundraiser, participated in Operation Red Nose each year in December, helped collect food for the Abbotsford Food Bank through the Cascadesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; annual Halloween Walk and Knock, and also coached with the Junior Cascades basketball club for five summers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At UFV we are so proud of Sarahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s achievement,â&#x20AC;? said Jody Gordon, UFV vice-president, students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not only has she excelled on the court and in the classroom, she has proven herself to be a leader in our commu-

Chilliwack’s peewee Red Giants edged the Blue Giants 22-18 in a Friday Night Football clash last week. The Blue Giants opened the scoring on their first drive. The Red Giants answered back with a Raiden Mastin touchdown and took their first lead in the second quarter. The Red Giants offensive line blew open a massive hole for Austin Wegener to run through, and he rumbled 20 yards for the go-ahead score. Travis Richley had the final Red Giants major early in the fourth quarter. The offensive line of Taylor Both, Tyler Kelly, Aven Jacura, Dayton Roger, Logan Head, Ben Uz, Matieus Chapman, Jake Sonder vang, Dayton Baker, Lewis Myran and Evan Parsons collectively earned MVP honours.

clash saw the White Giants edge the Blue Giants 14-8. The Blue Giants scored on their very first offensive play, but a white Giant defence led by Logan Both and Yapo Conteh stiffened. Just before halftime, the White Giant offence got on track, marching down the field for an Isaiah Grant major that brought them to within two points (8-6) at the break. Defensive dominance marked the second half, with neither side gaining much ground. Offensive lineman Giovanni Willis provided the key block on the second White Giants major, springing quarterback Christian Beck for a 50 yard touchdown run.

Dorothy Wilhelmine

August 18, 1925 - October 15, 2015

A Lovely Woman - A Happy Life Feb. 24, 1916 - Oct. 16, 2015

Dorothy passed gently into the night with her dear ones close by on Friday, October 16 at Cascade Lodge. She was 99 years and eight months old and would say she did not want to live to 100. Determined as she was she managed her way. It won’t be the same without her as Dorothy will be missed by the many people whose lives she touched. We all loved her dearly. Born February 24, 1916, Dorothy was raised in Watrous, SK where in grade 5 she met Alfred - the love of her life. Married in 1936 they enjoyed the rare gift of 72 happy years together. They lived mainly in Humboldt, SK, later retiring to Prince Albert National Park, SK, Phoenix, AZ and most recently Chilliwack, B.C. Dorothy was a force in her own way. She took wonderful care of her family, attending to their every need with the love and care of a devoted mother. As well she was involved in the community with the United Church, Brownies, figure skating, bridge, and school events. She loved her garden, sewing, knitting, cooking and decorating. One day the family returned home to find she had recovered a chair in Purple!! For the fifties, she was definitely ahead of her time. Sports played a big role in Dorothy’s life as she was excellent at tennis, golf and curling with her trophies attesting to these skills. Fishing, dancing, entertaining, and traveling were also favorites. As a couple, Dorothy and Alfred had family, friends, and relatives to share their interests. And through it all they worked very hard, doing their part to make the world a better place. Dorothy is survived by her loving daughter Barbara and husband Dick; daughter-in-law Sandee, grandchildren: Scott (Valerie), Shaun (Anna), Suzanne (Andrew), Rhonda (Steve), Lise (Glenn); great grandchildren: Jessica, Hailey, Isabelle, Ava, Keaton, Teagan, Malia, Delaney, Kimowan; sister-in-law Phyllis, and many nieces and nephews. Dorothy was predeceased by her dear husband Alfred, loving son Ronald, and brothers Gordon and Floyd. The family extends many thanks for the dedication and professional care offered to Dorothy by both Dr. Ken Harder and the Cascade Lodge. To the staff at Cascade Lodge 4th floor who brightened her days in so many ways and who so lovingly cared for her over the course of her stay with them, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We are grateful her stay was a happy one. A celebration of Dorothy’s life will be held at son’s Funeral Home Chilliwack, on Saturday, 24, at 2 pm. If friends so desire, donations made to Chilliwack Hospice Society, 45360 Ave, Chilliwack, BC. V2P 1P5

It is with great sadness that our family announces the passing of Edith Mary Humphreys at Cascade Hospice in Chilliwack, with family at her side. She was diagnosed with cancer on October 6th and fought a short courageous battle. Mom was predeceased by her beloved husband Peter of 63 years in 2011. She is lovingly remembered by her three sons, John (Colleen), Walter (Randi) and Peter (Elaine), 8 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren. Recently family and friends celebrated her 90th birthday. Edith was born to Walter and Mary Newcombe in Victoria, BC and was the great granddaughter of renowned anthropologist, Dr. Charles Newcombe. She graduated from Oak Bay High School in 1943 and from the Royal Jubilee Nursing School in 1946. While nursing at the Hospital in Zebellos, BC, Mom met the local BC Provincial Police officer, Peter Humphreys. They were married on September 18, 1948. During her career, Mom nursed in Victoria, Zebellos, Kelowna, Kamloops, Hope and Chilliwack. Mom and Dad retired in Chilliwack in 1982 and enjoyed many years as “snowbirds” in Yuma, Arizona, golfing, camping trips in their motorhome and travelling to many locations throughout the world. Even in retirement, Mom remained a caregiver to many family members and friends. Mom was a volunteer with the National Association of Federal Retirees, a member of the Red Hat Society, Chilliwack Senior Resources, a Life Member of the Chilliwack General Hospital and a member of St. Thomas Anglican Church. Recently she was recognized by the RCMP as an “Unpaid Second Man” for duties performed by the wives of RCMP members posted to small rural Detachments. A celebration of Edith’s life will be held in the Spring of 2016. Details will be announced when the arrangements have been made. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society. Online condolences may be made at www.woodlawn-mtcheam.ca. Woodlawn Mt.
