It’s her smile and her laugh that come through as you watch the footage of her carrying out the duties her role required. She found joy in service and in concern for the welfare of others. In a speech in 2008 she said, “Over the years, those who have seemed to me to be the most happy, contented and fulﬁlled have always been the people who have lived the most outgoing and unselﬁsh lives.”

That can be said of some of those who died in such a tragic way in our province — and in many other places around the world. But in their life, they lived serving others. They sought to bring joy. May the Queen, and all those who lived that way, be remembered like that. Thank you, Your Majesty. That’s my outlook.

Having lived in southeast Saskatchewan for nearly 40 years, I cannot believe how many things or people I didn’t know about. My favourite stories are human interest and learning something about the people and places where we live.

Reﬂecting on the past 12 months, I have provided you with dozens of stories. Here are ﬁve of my favourites and the reasons why.

Because for all of its nod to iconic British landmarks, trend-setting music and the elements of history and tradition, it was the moment that had audiences taken by such complete surprise that won’t soon be forgotten.

The Boikos - The First Ukrainian Family to Move to Carlyle: This was perhaps my most satisfying and impressive story to date. Riding in a van from Carlyle to Regina, I interviewed Serhii and Yuliia using translating and text devices. My mom is Ukrainian, and her parents (my grandparents) came from there. It was a heartwarming and passionate story and I wish them all the best.

In the midst of a list of luminaries that were invited to perform for her Platinum Jubilee, she again stole the show in the video of her tea party with Paddington Bear, sharing not only a cup of tea, but a marmalade sandwich as well. It was a sweet moment and the smile on the Queen’s face seemed so heartfelt.

Douglas E. Walker: This was one of my ﬁrst human interest stories. All I knew about him was that he was a famous photographer and that he lived at Kenosee Lake. I honestly didn’t know what he looked like. I started phoning him about an interview and after my dogged persistence, he ﬁnally agreed to meet. I was welcomed into his home at Kenosee, and we had an enjoyable two-hour conversation. Such an interesting fellow and such a great story.

Berntson decided that she was selling enough to justify having her own bake shop. On Sept. 1, Just Bread Inc. opened up at 303 Main Street in Oxbow. The bakery is open two days a week, allowing her to continue selling at markets.

Bread is not generally available on Sundays. Customers will ﬁnd more in the way of buns, bagels, baguettes and focaccia. This is to keep the German tradition alive where men go out early on Sunday to pick up fresh items for breakfast.

That’s one thing to know about Oxbow’s newest bakery. If people aren’t there by opening time, they might miss what they’ve come for. The bread sells quickly.

He owns 10 of them, ranging from a 1964 Mercury to a 2020 Ranger.“Ilove driving something different. I don’t like driving the same thing all the time,” he said.Swayze has about 50 chickens who give him eggs every day. He used to grow an extensive garden to provide free produce to the community, but some of the lustre was lost when he discovered someone was helping themselves and then taking the vegetables into town to sell.As you’re leaving the Swayze homestead, you’ll notice one other interest. He has developed Blackbear Park, an eight-site campground. Unlike the first impressions that you might get when first approaching his place or entering his home, the campground is for real.

In 1990, he decided to move to Oxbow. McLean remained in Brandon, so the relationship came to an end. He started working for TNC Oilﬁeld, mowing, blowing snow and doing maintenance work.Asigniﬁcant year for Swayze came in 1990. He realized he was enjoying his drink just a little too much, so he stopped, cold turkey. Not a drop of alcohol has passed his lips since then.

Gerry grew up in Glen Ewen and he learned to fish at a young age. He fished for catfish in the Souris River which flows south of town. School was never a highlight for him. To avoid writing exams in Grade 9, he dropped out for good. He was 14. He went to work as a farmer for Max Gilroy. Four years later, he joined Arne Hansen Construction, building roads.His love for animals, fishing and hunting never diminished. He always had ponies around and, even to this day, has a mare and a foal.

He missed rooﬁng. In 2000, he started Swayze Rooﬁng. It continues to operate and, at the age of 68, he is still busy at it.

At 22, Swayze moved to Brandon to work as a roofer. He met Anne McLean and they began a common-law relationship. She had nine children, so he became an ‘instant dad’. They had one child together, Jerri-Anne, who has given him three granddaughters he thinks the world of. He loved

As you approach Gerry Swayze’s Oxbow home, you might think you’re entering a wildlife conservation area, until noticing sasquatches walking through it and that everything is made of wood.If you enter his home, you might wonder if you’ve entered a zoo until realizing all the animals are stuffed. Then you might think you’re in a taxidermist’s workshop.Firstimpressions are deceiving. Swayze loves nature and has reproduced a lot of what he sees with wooden replicas. He has mounted a lot of what his passion for hunting has bagged. He has wooden bu ffaloes, moose, elk, bears, wolves and those three Sasquatches.Hehas,in his stuffed collection, moose, elk, deer, fish and a fox. He sleeps under large elk antlers.

Public swimming pools aren’t what they used to be.

The last week of Carnduff ’s public swimming season was filled with unique activities. Corey Purves and her team of guards had three outof-the-ordinary offerings.The first was a pool party. It filled a time slot when the pool is not normally used, 9 p.m. to midnight. Among other things, swimmers enjoyed freeze pops donated by the local Coop. It was a boisterous enough evening that neighbours commented the next day that it sounded like everyone had a blast. Not so loud, though, that the police heard about it.
