Slate declares intention to run The Citizens for Responsible Municipal Government team throw hats in the ring BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record
The political landscape of Mis-
sion may be about to change drastically, as businessman Ted Adlem has announced his intention to run for mayor with a slate of six team
members, which includes incumbent councillor Jenny Stevens. The Citizens for Responsible Municipal Government (CRMG) is a response to the financial crisis facing the district, said Adlem, owner of Pete’s Place Pizza. “Nobody is saying to me that business is great,” he said by phone
interview Friday afternoon. “I’ve lived in this community for 30 years and the thing that’s gotten to me is the economy in this town.” Foremost among his concerns is the increase in taxes. Adlem said See PAIR Page 4

Appreciating the safety of home BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record
D
ust swirled around the Ford Ranger as it hurtled down the road at twilight, the blue paint the sole colour in the desert moonscape. It was two days after Christmas and 33-year-old Chris McArdle, far from his Mission home, was heading for dinner with his friend Corrina, glad to be in the company of another British Columbian. There was no sound or warning. The vehicle was violently showered with rocks, then screeched to a halt. They only had a moment to turn to one another in confusion when the alarm sounded. “Rocket attack. Rocket attack.” The tinny, eerily calm voice recording came over the loudspeakers. Chris floored the gas pedal as he scanned the road for the familiar 12-foot high, two-foot thick, steel-reinforced concrete blast barriers behind which to hide. Pulling in behind the first one he found, Chris and Corrina spent the next two minutes in adrenaline fueled anticipation, neither speaking, their senses on high alert.\As the tension subsided, the two decided it was safe enough to continue to dinner. It was just another work day in Kandahar Airfield (KAF), Afghanistan. •••• Chris spent a year working as a civilian dispatcher for SNC Lavalin in Kandahar and, like many other Canadians, he spent the entire time “behind the wire.” His journey to Afghanistan was a bit of a fluke. He had been living in Mission and working as a dispatcher in Surrey and wanted something different than the usual “nine-tofive” job. He started looking in places like the Fort McMurray oil sands, when he came across a newspaper ad for Kandahar. Following some training in Ontario, he flew by civilian airplane to Afghanistan on May 20, 2010. There isn’t anything that can

prepare a civilian to end up in a place like that, says Chris. His second night on the base was the first time the Taliban launched a coordinated rocket attack followed by a ground assault on KAF. “Real nice way to say welcome to Kandahar,” he said, chuckling softly, then getting serious. “Never being in that kind of situation before, it was kind of scary, to say the least.” Since civilians aren’t in a chain of command, Chris says it’s sometimes hard to know what to do, other than duck and search for a bunker. Bringing a piece of home was important to Chris. Before he left for Afghanistan, he was given the District of Mission flag from Coun. Paul Horn. That flag ended up going with
soldiers into a Canadian Chinook, which later became the first Canadian helicopter used as a medevac in the war. Typically, Chris would work from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., six days a week, as a rental coordinator and dispatcher for civilian vehicles on the base. And although he couldn’t leave the base to meet Afghans, he dealt with those who came to maintain the vehicles. Chris says civilian workers are taught about Muslim culture before leaving, so they are better prepared for the Afghans’ customs. He would talk to them, get to know about their family, their lives, and even help in small ways if he could. He wouldn’t offer handouts, but did take their money to

buy food or medicine for them that wasn’t available off base. Afghans showed him respect and were interested in Canadian culture, including the popular Tim Hortons on base. With Internet access, Chris says it was easy to keep up to date with news back home. “Myself, every day I was looking on The Mission Record website, just to see what was going on in town.” But he says he would read Canadian news articles about Afghanistan and it almost seemed biased and one-sided. He seldom read about the good things he knew first-hand were happening, such as schools being built, supplies brought in for children, roads being built, and Afghans making better lives for themselves.
“But you always heard about the death and destruction.” •••• Chris was in the Tim Hortons lineup one day, and ended up speaking to a Canadian soldier who a few weeks later, fell in combat. It was hard to accept at first, but people sometimes die in a war zone, he says. “It’s unfortunate, but if you keep dwelling on it you’re not going to be of any use.” Despite casualties, he said morale was always high in KAF, and that was no different among the civilian workers. Chris says the biggest event on base was Canada Day, exceeding even July 4 celebrations. Civilians and soldiers alike were given Molson Canadian beer and treated to a live music concert, which was interrupted by a rocket attack, and Chris wound up sitting in a bunker with soldiers. The day wasn’t ruined. One of the soldiers had a guitar and began strumming Eagles’ music. “We were singing Hotel California and drinking beer. I didn’t even think I was in Afghanistan.” Now that Chris is back, he appreciates life more, and is taking the time to savour the comforts and safety of home. “You get so used to life over there, and you come back here and wonder what people are complaining about.” Even though Canada has ended its military commitment to Afghanistan, Chris says the people he spoke to there thanked him for the country’s contribution. “I firmly believe that what has happened in Afghanistan must continue for the people.” He says generations of Afghans have never seen peace — something many Canadians take for granted — and known nothing but terror and murder. But Canada’s commitment has always been a balance of fighting enemies and humanitarianism. “I’m not a politician, but you know what? When I see a human being is suffering, we need to help.”
Police executed three search warrants Sept. 8 at residences on Ferndale Avenue and Sabo Street, finding dried marijuana and plants. At one residence on Ferndale, said Mission RCMP Sgt. Miriam Dickson, a medicinal marijuana licence had been issued, and the holder was allowed to grow 25 plants and possess 1,125 grams. When police entered the home, they seized just under 40 pounds of drying pot. The two homes searched on Sabo saw RCMP members seize around 2,000 plants. The individuals associated to the residences were arrested, and later released on a promise to appear for a later date, said Dickson.

he paid $2,019 in 2010 and received a notice from the district indicating his taxes were going up 3.09 per cent. But when he paid his bill he said the total amount was $2,266, a 12.23 per cent increase. Adlem said council is raising taxes at twice the rate of inflation and isn’t bringing in enough businesses to sustain the tax base. He said morality issues are also affecting the current council, as evidenced by the looming class action lawsuit launched by residents over the Public Safety Inspection Team. “The citizens of this community, be it one or two or 500, should never be put in a position where they have to sue their municipal government to get satisfaction.� The CRMG team Adlem brings to the table is based on individuals with strong business backgrounds, he said. Stevens has served on council since 1999. As well, the district’s former chief building inspector, Larry Nundal, brings 30 years of experience in local government. The others include Dave Hensman, a musician and owner of Teamwork Property Management; Jeff Jewell, former radio co-host in Vancouver with a background in engineering; Nelson Tilbury, former welder and heavy duty mechanic turned business owner and
realtor; and Tony Luck, a financial advisor with Investor’s Group in Abbotsford. “As long as I’ve lived in this community, all I’ve ever heard from everybody that’s been in this community is we need to have more business, more industry, a bigger tax base for most folks, so the homeowner doesn’t have to suffer,� said Adlem. The CRMG team will be producing literature about their campaign and members in the coming weeks and months leading up to the Nov. 19 municipal election. Coun. Terry Gidda has confirmed he will seek re-election, saying there are a number of community issues he wants to be a part of, such as the ongoing development of the waterfront. Although Coun. Heather Stewart indicated in August she would not run for council again, she has reversed that decision based on the advice and encouragement of family and friends. “I was concerned about the needs of my family, but they have assured me that they will be OK,� she said, before echoing Gidda’s comments regarding wanting to be a part of many ongoing projects in the district. Mayor James Atebe and Couns. Paul Horn and Mike Scudder were unavailable for comment. As well, small business owner and president of the Mission District Historical Society, Paul Hockridge, declared his intent to run for council on Monday evening.

Former Maple Ridge mayor takes on comms officer role Kathy Morse was named the district’s new communications officer Monday
Morse
BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record
Mission’s new communications officer started work Monday, filling a perceived need by district council in consulting and answering questions from media and the general public. In a press release from the district, former District of Maple Ridge mayor Kathy Morse will be tasked with the creation and implementation of a communication strategy that will coordinate information from all levels of municipal government to provide feedback for the public. “The purpose of this position is to meet the community’s expectation of regular and timely information, and to initiate best practices to advance the use of social media as a two-way communication tool for the district,” reads the press release. Morse was a broadcaster with CKNW for 14 years before be-
ccoming a councilllor and then mayor iin Maple Ridge. In 22005 she founded hher company Communication West in m Maple Ridge, proM viding communication strategies for
companies. Her current contract with the district is a six-month term and renewal will likely depend upon the decision of the future council after the November elections. That could be problematic if a majority of the members of the new Citizens for Responsible Municipal Government (CRMG) team get elected, a slate of seven candidates including incumbent Coun. Jenny Stevens. In an announcement of their candidacy on Friday, CRMG calls the communications officer a “spin doctor,” which they believe was done solely to improve council’s image with the public. “The timing made it clear that this was a transparent attempt by the current council to get the taxpayers to fund their re-election campaign,” reads the CRMG literature, which adds the position would be immediately terminated if elected.
Red light camera live at 7 and 11 If you’re photographed by this camera, chances are you won’t be smiling. Mission’s busiest intersection is now equipped with a red light camera as the province launches the third phase of B.C.’s Intersection Safety Camera (ISC) program. Lougheed Highway and Cedar Valley Connector has been designated as one of B.C.’s 140 highestrisk intersections. According to government sta-
tistics, there have been 232 injuries resulting from an average 75 crashes per year between 2002 and 2008 at the intersection. “The expansion of the ISC program means we are better equipped to hold reckless drivers more accountable,” said Maple RidgeMission MLA Marc Dalton in a government press release. The ISC program’s stated goal is to prevent crashes, injuries and fatalities, not to generate ticket revenues.
Sites were selected with ICBC data based on where cameras are suspected they will be the most effective in reducing serious crashes. Signs will accompany ISC cameras at selected intersections giving drivers advanced warning. All traffic fine revenue will be distributed back to B.C. municipalities to help them enhance their policing and community-based public programs, according to the press release. A red light camera locations map is at www.icbc.com.

software, or checking into a computer problem, said Dickson. The callers then say they can sell them the software or fix the computer remotely, and direct them to a website which grants the scam artists access to the computer. This is definitely a scam, Dickson noted, adding it has been occurring around the world. For more information visit www. microsoft.com/security.
Distracted Driving Month RCMP now say distracted driving is the number one cause of fatalities in the Lower Mainland. During September, Mission RCMP will be concentrating their efforts on this issue. Police are looking for any driver behaviour that takes their attention from the road. That includes texting, talking on a hand-held cellphone, applying makeup, or reading a newspaper or book while driving. The fine for using an electronic device without hands-free while driving is $167. Drivers
caught texting or e-mailing may receive three points on their licence in addition to the fine. “There are no messages or conversations that are so important that you need to endanger yourself or others,” said Dickson. “If you feel you really need to talk, purchase a Bluetooth and ensure you know how to use it, or pull over to the side of the road.” The Motor Vehicle Act defines an electronic device as more than just a cellphone. It includes items such as GPS, MP3 players and tablets, such as an iPad.
O F F I C E O F T H E M AYO R You are invited to the Cedar Street Official Opening Ceremony You are invited to the Cedar Street Official Opening Ceremony Monday, September 19,19, 20112011 Monday, September Dear Mission Residents and Business Owners: On behalf of Council and the District of Mission, I would like to cordially invite you to join us in celebrating the completion of the Cedar Street Widening Project. This project was started in June, 2010 and its completion has significantly improved traffic flow and enhanced safety for passenger vehicles, trucks, buses, cyclists and pedestrians. The work has also helped to protect fish-bearing watercourses in that location and improve storm water management in the Cedar Valley area. The reconstructed area is approximately 800 metres in length with two lanes for through traffic and a designated bicycle lane in each direction. The raised centre median prevents left turns between intersections; increasing the safety of the road and minimizing delays to through traffic. There are concrete sidewalks on each side of the road and boulevard / median plantings with street lights. Wheelchair letdowns are incorporated where required and tactile strips are placed adjacent to letdowns and other obstructions for the benefit of the visually impaired. A new traffic light is now in operation at the Egglestone intersection. Over 1000 linear meters of newly constructed storm sewer line has been installed. Gaudin Creek is being diverted with a channel and two major culvert crossings at Tunbridge Avenue and Cedar Street. The Cedar Street temporary detention pond is being upgraded to a more permanent pond. The total cost of the Cedar Street Widening Project was $3,881,025, shared equally among the federal, provincial and municipal governments through the Infrastructure Stimulus Fund. On Monday, September 19, 2011, we will be celebrating the official opening of Cedar Street. Please join us at 10:00 a.m. in the parking lot of St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church at 8469 Cedar Street. Light refreshments will be served. Yours truly,

OPINION
Published and printed by Black Press Ltd. at Mission at 33047 First Ave., V2V 1G2
Homework debate The carefree days of summer are coming to an end, and with the return to school comes the dreaded homework. Surveys have found many parents are worried that homework eats into family time and getting kids to do it is stressful. Although some parents appreciate the structure homework provides, others think it gets in the way of sports and other activities, and delays bedtime. Teachers don’t agree on the value of homework, either. Some educators view it as a way to extend learning; others see it as important for mastering skills like math or a new language; and yet others think it’s a waste of time. How much homework is sent home entirely depends on the teacher as their are no policies on homework at the district or provincial level. There is, however, a growing consensus that homework shouldn’t be just busy work but should help children make connections and deepen their understanding of classroom lessons. For example, colouring a Xeroxed map could be considered busy work but putting together a photo collage or making a diorama could enrich a child’s understanding of a country. Many teachers are moving towards project-based learning, in which students come up with a project of inquiry, such as measuring the value of a local stream, and then study it from all angles. This would be a case where homework is useful as students get to work on a project of their own choosing. There are many resources for parents but it’s not always obvious where to go and what to do about this topic. Learn Now BC (www.learnnowbc.ca/services/homeworkhelp.aspx) is one such resource. But most parents will have to use their best judgement when it comes to homework. If they think the quantity appears to outweigh the quality, it may be time to make a phone call. - Tri-City News

Power producers plead case B
.C.’s private power producers held a news conference in the capital last week, to plead with the B.C. government not to back down from its target of self-sufficiency in clean energy by 2016. The review panel looking at BC Hydro rates recommended that one way the utility might save money would be to change the definition of self-sufficiency. Currently that means having enough domestic clean electricity supply even in low water years. The B.C. Clean Energy Association was supported by University of Victoria climate scientist Andrew Weaver, who wants B.C. to continue to develop its unique clean energy resources. That will reduce BC Hydro’s reliance on the open electricity market, and help to reduce demand for further coal and natural gas generation. Weaver says people still skeptical about climate change should check out the current state of Arctic sea ice. It has retreated drastically again this summer and may reach an even smaller size
than it did in 2007, which was the biggest melt since satellite records became available in 1979. The five greatest ice retreats have been in the past five years. The U.S. National Snow and Ice Data Centre reported Sept. 6 that both the Northwest Passage through Canada’s Arctic and the sea route north of Russia “appear to be open.” Another supporter is Judith Sayers, a former chief from Nuu-Chah-Nulth territory on Vancouver Island, who now To teaches aboriginal law at the University of Victoria. She talked about how a small hydro power project near Port Alberni allowed her people to learn business, with a light footprint on land recovering from a century of industrial logging. And she said that more than half of the First Nations in B.C. now have some interest in a power project. Association president Paul Kariya explained how critics,
notably the NDP’s John Horgan, manipulate rate figures to create an impression that independent power is hugely overpriced. One out of three proposals never makes it to production. B.C.’s second wind farm, the Dokie project near Chetwynd, went broke, then was taken over and completed by Plutonic Power Corp. and General Electric. Here’s an indication of how quickly the clean energy field is evolving: This year Plum tonic merged with Magma Energy Corp., which has geothermal assets in Iceland and Nevada. The merged company, Alterra Power Corp., has backed away from the vast Bute Inlet run-of-river proposal on the B.C. coast, but its nearby East Toba and Montrose river generators and the Dokie wind farm have performed better than expected. Horgan claims private investment is a nefarious

scheme to create a “parallel generating system” for private profit. That seems to be his key criterion for acceptable small hydro: as long as nobody makes a profit. Professional environmentalists claim rivers have been destroyed. Their favourite villain, Ashlu Creek near Squamish, has been running smoothly for nearly two years, its critics silenced. A new run-of-river cluster around Harrison Lake has energized two remote native villages. I’ve seen these things, from construction stage to mature operation. If that’s your idea of devastation, you should get out more, and acquaint yourself with the history of logging in particular. And if you’re going to insinuate that this is political corruption, as Horgan does, you need a better case than the flimsy one he has presented so far.

Enough with Different police strategy needed the Wal-Mart hate already Editor, The Record: Re: Pack of hyenas have been let into the pride, Sept. 8 edition. Am I ever tired of hearing how Wal-Mart or a couple of drive-thrus are going to be the end of Mission as we know it. I am 32 and have lived here most of my life. I have seen all kinds of stores come and go. I am sure when Real Canadian Superstore, Canadian Tire or Staples set up shop people were freaking out then too. Business, like many things, survive when they are the fittest. If the hyenas overpower the lions, then so be it; they were too weak and probably would have died off on their own eventually. I can tell you truthfully that other than to pick up a pizza, I never step foot on First Avenue; there is nothing there for me. Even Tim Hortons I avoid as it does not have a drive-thru. I have two small children and try to avoid going into fast food places with them. Having to unbuckle car seats, get out the stroller, lift them both out of the car, protect them from cars in the parking lot and then doing it all over again to get back into the vehicle — only this time with an armload of food and drinks — is a bit much to handle. I love drive-thrus and can’t wait for another Tim Hortons (the other one is so busy) and a Burger King. As for Wal-Mart, I am super excited, as I hate having to drive to Abbotsford. As I said before, I am not someone who ever shops on First. That said, I don’t think those vendors will miss me or anyone else who never shopped there. If no one else has noticed yet, Mission is growing in leaps and bounds. The top of Cedar Street is loaded with new development, and most of these homes are probably bought by young families. These young families will probably also be looking for Wal-Marts to shop at and drive thrus to go through. It is time to let Mission grow business-wise to accommodate its growing population and demographic. If you hate Wal-Mart, don’t shop there. That is your choice. By the sounds of these letters to the editor, I can assume there are more than a few people in Mission who will remain faithful First Avenue shoppers, and I am glad you are there to support those businesses. Sacha Hanley Mission
Editor, The Record: Having lived in Mission for a number of years and speaking with many people on the subject of our downtown core and its regeneration, a repeating theme rears its head. The majority of people I have spoken with have commented upon the less than welcoming atmosphere they apparently experience on First Avenue, North Railway Avenue and Second Avenue, respectively. Folks raise issues such as panhandlers, drunks, people apparently under the influence of other substances, speeding vehicles, etc. All this despite the best efforts of our local businesses to cater to the public’s needs and wishes. It is indeed sometimes hard
to walk along the Horne Street end of First Avenue in particular without making way for apparently inebriated individuals or groups who seem unable to speak without shouting and using profanity between one another or directing a general air of belligerence at passersby. I’m sure many people reading this will understand the issue I raise. This, bear in mind, is in broad daylight when the street is filled with shoppers. The atmosphere in the evening or at night changes for the worse, and the downtown core can seem outright threatening. Our downtown shops should not be places which anyone feels they need to take refuge within, or pop into and out of as fast as possible. Right now
it is my perception that the core is on a slippery slope and it is time to do something. This is not a call to exclude people, but it is a call to exclude certain behaviour. Those who refuse to behave in a civil, socially responsible way in our streets choose to exclude themselves — hence a justice system and the rule of law. Mission residents deserve a more visible policing presence in our downtown area. As a person with an extensive background in policing, I understand the RCMP are busy, but at the same time I find it hard to believe that creating the kind of atmosphere we would enjoy in our downtown core is not a priority. What is policing if not the establishment and
Seniors must vote for those who value elders Editor, The Record: Curiosity often sparks questions and debates about why Mission council or an association’s elected board, approaching a crossroads, too often takes the wrong path. Examples of poor judgment and decisions have appeared in local papers, most recently the PSIT debacle and lawsuit. The lack of progress in the visual arts, animal relations and seniors facilities herald a long list of council neglect. While reasons abound, from the ridiculous to the sublime, local seniors are too complacent. The building on Taulbut Street has been paid for by seniors from a lifetime of property taxes, and council has failed to realize this contribution by not designating it a seniors’ activity centre. I’m curious why there is such a lack of respect. It is council’s responsibility to address and provide remedy to seniors’ needs, and that will only come by making this building a seniors’ use only site. Seniors are a time-sensitive community asset. These citizens, who
through taxes and a lifetime of volunteering are in their time of need, have been shunned by council. Sadly, as well, inept seniors’ leaders have become the apologists for council inaction, and by extension enablers, to perpetuate this perceived indifference and lack of empathy toward seniors’ needs. Seniors need to heed the rallying call of the Elder Citizen Action Coalition (visit www.thecouncilclaw.ca and click the Contents section for details). A seniors renaissance must merge into one strong united voice that on election day Nov. 19 seniors en-masse will casts votes for candidates who actually care about seniors. A longer term venture to build a multi-use housing complex with below/above ground parkades, and a ground level 15,000-20,000 sq. ft. seniors activity centre on districtowned land adjacent the Leisure Centre, should be the three- to five-year priority George F. Evens Mission
maintenance of a calm, relaxed and above all, safe society? How is this achieved? It is, in my experience of doing so, quite simple. Let’s ask our erstwhile officers to occasionally — let’s say once or twice a day, for example — get out of their cruisers and walk the length of First Avenue between Grand and Horne, and again between the Cedar Connector and Grand. I know that for operational reasons such a strategy will be difficult to achieve with 100 per cent reliability, but right now any police patrol presence on our sidewalks, in our stores and most importantly in our consciousness would be a huge leap forward. Leo Simmons Mission
Jaywalkers should be ticketed more Editor, The Record: Re: First Avenue Traffic needs some calming, Sept. 1 edition. Is it really the traffic that needs calming? As a local who has walked and driven First Avenue, I know there are plenty of crosswalks, and also enough 50 km/h speed signs. When I walk First Avenue, I am smart enough to use a crosswalk, and as a driver, do the speed limit, if not slower. Many days it seems people are crawling along First in fear of people jaywalking, which happens far too often. We should not have to crawl along at 20 km/h, if lucky,
to get through four or five blocks. Or, in many cases, get lucky enough to do 40 km/h just to be flipped off by a pedestrian jaywalking. Not only do they jaywalk, but they don’t even look to see if traffic is coming; as if they have every right to storm out into traffic without even looking and putting their safety into someone else’s hands. So is it really the traffic that needs calming, or the pedestrians? Maybe the fact that jaywalking is illegal should be enforced? If not for learning a lesson, for those people’s safety!

Frank Dolman was a teacher, logger, union local president, cowboy, sawmill manager, education researcher, college administrator, writer, teacher trainer, actor, broadcaster, ultralight pilot, motorcycle rider, husband, father, grandfather, and congenial observer of the human scene. He was born in Nakusp, 1929, second son of Jack and Annie Dolman. He grew up on his parent’s farm, and learned early the duties of a farm boy. And his mother taught him both piano and the basics of cooking. He rode on horseback to school, from the beginning of grade 1 to the end of grade 12. Following a year in senior matric at Trail, he enrolled in second year at the University of British Columbia in 1948. The next three years were truly the greening years for Frank. While majoring in the Sciences, he in fact was growing up. Fortuitously he joined the Varsity Outdoor Club, and he threw himself into its activities – skiing, climbing, hiking, and a wonderful social life, which served to develop his self-confidence and sense of self-worth. He remained in contact with some members until his death six decades later. For one forgettable season he also played American Football with the UBC Thunderbirds. He earned his way through University working as a logger. One summer he and big brother Bob felled the great fir trees on a mountainside above Jarvis Inlet, using a crosscut saw and springboards – probably one of the last sets of fallers to do this before these tools were replaced by the power saw. Unwisely, he left University before completing his degree, and completely at loose ends, ended up working for one season on the Twin Lakes Dude Ranch, west of Penticton. Through the rest of his life Frank maintained that this was the best job he had ever had – at $60 a month plus room (in the bunkhouse) and board! He worked initially with the hay crew in Olalla, driving a team of horses pulling a hay wagon; later was promoted to wrangler, looking after all the riding horses, and taking the guests out for daily trail rides. The ranch has now been subdivided, and the fairways and greens of the Twin Lakes Golf and Country Club now occupy the former horse pasture. His careers began as a trainee for Canadian Forest Products, and for the next 10 years he worked in the forest industries as worker, foreman, superintendent and manager, in the Okanagan and in Quesnel. During this time, he married Margot Tysoe, a nurse and beautiful Vancouver socialite who cheerfully moved to her “little home in the North” where they happily stayed for the next 15 years. Children soon followed. Stephen was born in 1953, followed by Katherine and Cameron. Eventually the young couple came to realize the cause of all these pregnancies! Danielle was born six years later. When his mill manager job was sold out from under him, he cast about for a new career, and Frank decided to become a teacher at Quesnel High School. This was the beginning of his long, varied and successful career in education. The next ten years were busy with child raising, career development and community participation. Margot was perennial president of the Bouchie Lake Saddle Cub and Frank had a few wild and crazy years as Secretary of the Bouchie Lake Rodeo Club. Their home and little farm on the lakeshore, was continually filled with friends; 4H animals, and horses. Early in his teaching career, Frank and family moved to Vancouver for a year so he could earn his permanent teacher’s certificate at U.B.C. He also completed his B. Sc. and began a Master’s Program, which remained unfinished. He taught Mathematics and Biology at Quesnel High; initiated a 2 year Forestry program, and was promoted to Department Head. He loved his students, and they returned his affections. Grad breakfasts were an annual affair at the Dolman home. In 1967 he was promoted to Director of Adult Education for the school district. The program thrived under his guidance, and he also hosted a weekly program on local radio, and edited a monthly newsletter for the school district. He also contributed significantly to the development of the provincial “New Mathematics” curriculum. In 1969 he accepted a foreign aid posting to
Trinidad and Tobago and was appointed to the education faculty of the University of the West Indies as an “expert in the new math”. The three years that followed evolved as wonderful years for Frank and his family. Steve, Kathy and Cam were teenagers now, and met the challenge of separate boys and girls schools, school uniforms, British-based curriculum, immense cultural change and being a part of a tiny minority of white kids. Margot volunteered as a nurse in a medical team which performed corrective surgery on children with cleft palets. Frank plunged into his teacher-training duties, and gained a great admiration and respect for his students and the local teachers who persevered under always difficult, sometimes brutal teaching conditions. The family made many friends, and enjoyed hours of fun aboard “Defender”, a 26 foot sloop which Frank acquired. They had many other adventures, including living through an attempted revolution. They returned to BC in 1972, and Frank worked for the Ministry of Education for a year, heading a group developing a new provincial Adult Basic Education curriculum. During this time he published several papers and edited a provincial newsletter. He then moved to Mission to work for the School District, and on April 1, 1974 was appointed to a committee to organize what became the University of the Fraser Valley. He and two others became its first permanent employees. He stayed with the College until retirement in August 1989 working at what he described as his greatest and most satisfying professional experience. He was proud of the fact that he initiated the Fraser Valley Symphony Orchestra as a College program in 1984. He served in several administrative positions, his final and preferred one was Director of Continuing Education. His work was recognized at the provincial level by the BCACE and the BCAVA. Unfortunately, his personal life was not so successful. He and Margot separated in 1976 and divorced soon after. In 1978 his second son, Cameron tragically drowned while adventuring in Mexico, and his father Jack died that same year. Ever buoyant, Frank began a new life in the 1980s. Now living in Abbotsford with Danielle, who was in high school. He made new friends, enjoyed some wonderful dalliances, and settled happily into midlife. He travelled extensively; earned a scuba ticket in the Red Sea; he smoked opium in the Golden Triangle; and walked the Via Della Rosa once on a Good Friday. He had joined the Valley Musical Theatre Guild in 1975, and took part in Broadway musicals, Gilbert & Sullivan operettas and stage dramas for the next 20 years. In 1981 Enid, 15 years his junior, dynamic, beautiful, talented, swept into his life, and changed it forever. They were to spend the next 22 years together, living apart, but committed to each other. They shared the good and bad times; job changes; personal setbacks and triumphs. They travelled the world together, from sailing at Club Med to touring the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg. Enid accompanied Frank on his pilgrimage from midlife into his senior years, a wonder, passionate, and tempestuous journey. Here however, Frank faced a difficult change. In the summer of 2003, Enid left him for a younger, wealthy Australian. Gradually healing his wounds, Frank looked to other things in his life – his many friends; playing golf and tennis; continuing with the Vancouver Welsh Men’s Choir; and most of all, enjoying his children and seven grandchildren. All gave him support. He survived and eventually flourished. In the winter of 2005 he met D’Anne who again brought love to his life. She proved to be a wonderful companion and the person he needed at that time of his life. For the past 5 years, despite mounting medical problems and the various indignities of aging, Frank remained positive and content, although he was fond of saying that “getting old was not for the faint of heart”. Family and friends gathered close and Frank continued to regale them with tales of his life; he recognized how fortunate he had been, reflected upon the fullness and richness of his many experiences, and the deep joy and love he shared with his family and many friends. Frank passed away peacefully August 18, 2011, in Abbotsford, BC at the age of 82; sail on, sweet man, keep your face to the sun and the wind at your back. A Celebration of his Life is planned for Saturday, October 1, 2011 at 2:00 pm at the Hole-in-the-Wall, 3807 Eldridge Road, Abbotsford, BC. Take the Whatcom Road Exit, east of Abbotsford, go to the north side of the freeway onto North Parallel Road, heading east; it will become Eldridge – follow it to the Private Property sign on the left. Frank asked that, if desired, donations be made in his name to the Vancouver Welsh Men’s Choir, Box 2978, Main PO, Vancouver, BC V6B 3X4.

An estimated 4.5 million sockeye salmon are returning to the Fraser River system this summer and the run size has fishery managers cautiously optimistic about the iconic fish’s survival. Granted, it’s a tiny fraction of the record 30 million sockeye that returned last year. But sockeye run on a four-year cycle, so managers aren’t comparing this run against last year — which was the high end of the cycle and was further amplified by mysteriously favourable ocean conditions. Instead, Pacific Salmon Commission chief biologist Mike Lapointe notes these salmon are the spawn of the sockeye that migrated back in 2007 — a year when less than two million sockeye returned and the fishery was shut down. That was the start of three years of similarly low returns that led the federal government to appoint the Cohen Commission to investigate the decline. “The sockeye run is certainly better than forecast,” Lapointe said, noting it was expected to be as low as 3.1 million. To now see more than twice as many sockeye four years later is “pretty positive” and might be the beginning of a turnaround for the runs that migrate on this part of the cycle, Lapointe said.

will be the first time she has done so as a cancer survivor. And she won’t do it alone. In May, the 27-yearold Coquitlam resident was diagnosed with breast cancer. The cancer was non-invasive and slow growing, she said, but her best treatment option was a double mastectomy, a surgery from which she is currently recovering. “When they told me it was breast cancer, I was shocked,” Abfalter told Black Press. “It took a
week for me to actually take it all in.” Since her surgery last month, she has been spending most of her days at home resting. But by Oct. 2, Abfalter said she will be ready to walk in the Run for a Cure and hopes she and a group of her friends can raise as much money as possible before the event. More than 20 friends and relatives, including Mission’s Melanie Harris, Christi Livingstone of Surrey and Maria Bedwell of Maple Ridge, are helping and each per-
son has a goal of raising $300. Dubbed the Rack Pack, the group is even inviting the public to come out to a pub night they are hosting in Maple Ridge next month. While recovering from her surgery, Abfalter said she has not had a lot of time to get outside and train. She hopes to walk the 5 km route but said there is a 1 km route she can take depending on how she feels. “It just depends,” she said. “It really takes a lot of time for your body to recover.

will be the first time she has done so as a cancer survivor. And she won’t do it alone. In May, the 27-yearold Coquitlam resident was diagnosed with breast cancer. The cancer was non-invasive and slow growing, she said, but her best treatment option was a double mastectomy, a surgery from which she is currently recovering. “When they told me it was breast cancer, I was shocked,” Abfalter told Black Press. “It took a
week for me to actually take it all in.” Since her surgery last month, she has been spending most of her days at home resting. But by Oct. 2, Abfalter said she will be ready to walk in the Run for a Cure and hopes she and a group of her friends can raise as much money as possible before the event. More than 20 friends and relatives, including Mission’s Melanie Harris, Christi Livingstone of Surrey and Maria Bedwell of Maple Ridge, are helping and each per-
son has a goal of raising $300. Dubbed the Rack Pack, the group is even inviting the public to come out to a pub night they are hosting in Maple Ridge next month. While recovering from her surgery, Abfalter said she has not had a lot of time to get outside and train. She hopes to walk the 5 km route but said there is a 1 km route she can take depending on how she feels. “It just depends,” she said. “It really takes a lot of time for your body to recover.

Recently the District of Mission implemented a bicycle route plan which included signs and road stencils on roads in the district. The project evolved when Mission Municipal Council adopted a Parks, Trails and Bicycle Master Plan in 2009. The purpose was to provide direction to the district for the management of outdoor recreation systems over the next 15 years. This plan was developed by a consultant with significant public consultation and input. The bicycle route plan identified the need for a link between Mission’s core and Hatzic, through Fraser River Heritage Park and the adjacent crown land. This was the basis for the district’s successful application for a LocalMotion grant, along with two other smaller grants. These grants were used to build the new trail system in and around Fraser River Heritage Park. The budget for the project was $1.2 million, with over $900,000 coming from the three noted grant programs. The district share of $300,000 came from gaming revenue. The trail project was completed under budget and the district asked the province if they wanted the surplus funding returned. The province decided the funds would stay to be used in our community, but that any additional work would still need to meet the objectives of promoting active transportation (cycling) and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. All parties agreed that the natural extension of the project was to establish the full bicycle route. The goals of the bicycle route plan are to increase bicycle trips and improve safety for cyclists in Mission. It was Council’s goal to see the plan become reality through the use of these grants funds, and that cyclists will feel much safer when travelling through and around Mission.

Property crime workshop Avoid on-lineups. organized for Saturday Search online anytime! There will be a one-day training workshop hosted by the Chilliwack RCMP and the Abbotsford Police Department, in partnership with the BC Crime Prevention Association on Saturday, Sept. 18 in Chilliwack. This workshop is designed for property owners, property managers and resident managers and is required to complete phase one of the Mission Crime Free Multi-Housing program (CFMH). When criminals and other destructive residents operate out of rental property, neighborhoods suffer and managers can face serious consequences, including: • Loss of valued residents; • Decline in property values; • Property damage from abuse, retaliation or neglect; • Civil penalties including forfeiture or temporary closure of the property; • Fear and frustration when
dealing with dangerous and threatening residents; • Resentment and anger between neighbors, residents and property managers. The CFMH program is a direct and solution-oriented crime prevention initiative, designed specifically to help apartment owners, managers, residents, police and other significant agencies work together to help keep illegal and nuisance activity off rental property. The program provides training in the deployment of effective property management techniques, effective use of Residential Tenancy Law and encourages people to take personal interest in what goes on in their apartment community. By signing a lease addendum, the tenants agree that they will not engage in criminal behavior on the rental property. Contravention of
this addendum is grounds for eviction under the rules of the Residential Tenancy Act. The program utilizes a three part approach which ensures the crime prevention goal while maintaining an approach which is very tenant-friendly. The next one day workshop will be on Saturday, Sept. 18, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Chilliwack City Hall Council Chambers, located at 8550 Young Road, Chilliwack, B.C. The cost is of participation is $45.00 (including HST) and pre-registration is required. Further information and a copy of the registration form can be found at www. chilliwack.com. To learn more about how you can bring the CFMH program to your property in Mission, please contact Vic Barron at the Mission Crime Prevention Office by calling 604-820-2722 or email mission_ cpo@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.

Landslides have occurred within the District of Mission resulting in considerable loss of property and impacts to public infrastructure, and usually occur as a result of heavy rains or snowmelt. Although not always the case, signs of instability usually show up in advance of slope stability problems occurring. Property owners should
monitor for signs of instability before, during and after heavy rains. These signs can include cracks in the foundation walls or concrete patios; leaning deck posts or excessively sloping decks; slumps or slides in the streambanks; erosion and soil exposure on the slopes; fenceposts or trees that are leaning downslope or upslope; cracks or soft spots in the ground
near the top of and on the slope; trees with a strongly curved (“J”) shape at their base; outbreaks of springs where there were none before; undercutting of streambanks by creeks at the base of gullies; presence of water loving plants on slopes — skunk cabbage, horse tail, devil’s club etc.; old wood retaining walls which have deteriorated due to age; and other retaining
walls which exhibit signs of movement. Property owners can take several steps to reduce the likelihood of slope stability problems by hiring a geotechnical engineer, who can be found in the yellow pages. District engineering staff is available to answer any questions as well. Please contact Mike Younie by phone at 604-820-3798 or myounie@mission.ca.

New group of Pathfinders chosen
Pleasant View patio now open Pleasant View Care Home residents now have a scenic spot to enjoy the beautiful weather as the Telfer Patio construction has been completed. The cedar and glass fencing was custom built to enclose a walkway at the front of the building which was no longer in use due to security concerns and residents’ inability to access the area. With the addition of the fencing and an automatic door opener, the area is once again available to all residents. All the funds and much of the labour to build the patio was donated by Mission businesses and individuals.
and politicians to artists, athletes, caregivers and community activists have been celebrated. This year four more women will be honoured — Rozina Buker, a resident for the past 93 years who is a “gifted storyteller and memory keeper” for her family; Mary Dick, the first woman member of the Cham-
ber of Commerce and a humanitarian “that never let anyone go away hungry;” Heather Stewart, an innovative educator and community leader “with an abiding desire to make Mission the best place to live in the Fraser Valley;” and Debbie Trenholm, a successful businesswoman and community volunteer.
Guests will have the opportunity to meet and speak with these remarkable women and many of those previously honoured. Tickets for the event are $10 and may be purchased at Murdoch’s Bookshoppe on First Avenue or the Mission Seniors’ Activity Centre, and at the door for $12. For more information

What’s Happening in Mission
BEING HELPFUL VS. COMPLAINING It is a wise person who knows when and how to tactfully speak up about a situation that may need correcting. When a person is critical of almost everything, they may be looked upon by others as being a “complainer.” There is a significant difference between grumbling and honestly trying to be helpful. Most businesses have a customer service department to handle problems and complaints. They usually do not call them “complaint departments” because they know that correcting problems and providing good service are beneficial to good business, whereas complaining denotes a negative tone. In addition, no one likes to listen to someone who is always complaining. The Bible tells us in Colossians 3:13, “Be tolerant with one another and forgive one another whenever any of you has a complaint against someone else. You must forgive one another just as the Lord has forgiven you.” We should try to be more positive to reduce the stress in our lives; God wants us to work and live in harmony with those around us.

Upcoming concerts in Mission There are many groups and tours set to arrive in the district over the next few months. Here’s your chance to mark your favourites down in your calender: Oct. 8: Led ZepAgain Tribute Band Led ZepAgain features all of the Led Zeppelin highlights, from the high energy electric classics, beautiful acoustic works; soaring leads on the double-neck guitar, brilliant keyboard passages, the high Robert Plant screams and those trademark pounding rhythms. Oct. 22: Neverest and Alyssa Reid Neverest’s debut album About Us produced two hit singles which reached number two on the All Canadian Singles Airplay Chart. Their single Everything earned the group a 2011 MMVA Nomination for the “Number One Video”. Alyssa Reid, just 18 years old, entered the Canadian music scene early this year with her pop radio hit Alone Again. The platinum selling, multi-format single was the number one played song in the country by a Canadian artist for an impressive 15 straight weeks. Oct. 29: Jesse Cook Seven studio albums in 15 years is in itself a measure of Jesse Cook’s artistic success and his latest album, The Rumba Foundation, is no exception. In what might be his strongest work yet, Jesse melds his trademark rumba flamenco style with the roots of Cuba and modernizes it with dazzling instrumentals that will touch your soul. Nov. 25: Matthew Good Over nearly two-decades, Matthew Good has continually pushed forward into uncharted territories, mapping new musical landscapes. His newest release, Lights Of Endangered Species takes Good into the unfamiliar, displaying arrangements that are a distinct departure from the likes of Born Losers and Last Parade. Stark and passionate best describe his latest effort and despite its differences the record still resonates with his fans. All shows are playing at the Clarke Theatre in Mission.

Jessy Brown wins silver sive in this fight, throwing a lot of punches, kept together with a good defense. He earned the win with a lopsided 19-7 score. The bantam weight gold medal fight saw Brown face England’s Qais Ashfaq. “This fight was a challenge for Jessy,” said Gatin, because Ashfaq is a southpaw and Brown has little experience fighting against those types of opponents. Brown put in his best effort, but was outskilled. “He did very well against a talented group of boxers. Jessy is the number one youth contender in the Commonwealth in the bantam weight division,” said Gatin. For more information about Mission City Boxing Club, visit www.missionboxing.com.

ELLIOTT, Dr. Elizabeth “Liz” May It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Liz, peacefully at home surrounded by family, on September 9, 2011. She is survived by her loving husband and soul-mate Milt, her son Kris, daughter Maya, mother Albina, father Wally, brother Peter, sister-in-law Colleen, brothers-in-law George and Don, and nieces Megan, Shannon, Ingrid and nephew Troy. Liz was born May 22, 1957 in Montreal. She grew up in Ottawa and settled in B.C in the 1980s. Liz will be greatly missed by her family, wide circle of friends and colleagues, and countless students and prisoners. Liz drew strength and inspiration from those around her and, in turn, influenced others through her tireless social and community work and her teaching as Associate Professor, Criminology, Simon Fraser University. She was a fierce advocate for social justice and co-founded the Centre for Restorative Justice at SFU. Liz was a spiritual being who lived every day to the fullest. She faced her impending departure as she did life: with strength, courage, grace and dignity. A service celebrating Liz’s life will be held on Saturday, September 17 at 1:00 pm at the football field at Mission Senior Secondary School in Mission, B.C. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the John Howard Society of B.C. A special thank you to Drs.

Frank Dolman was a teacher, logger, union local president, cowboy, sawmill manager, education researcher, college administrator, writer, teacher trainer, actor, broadcaster, ultralight pilot, motorcycle rider, husband, father, grandfather, and congenial observer of the human scene. He was born in Nakusp, 1929, second son of Jack and Annie Dolman. He grew up on his parent’s farm, and learned early the duties of a farm boy. And his mother taught him both piano and the basics of cooking. He rode on horseback to school, from the beginning of grade 1 to the end of grade 12. Following a year in senior matric at Trail, he enrolled in second year at the University of British Columbia in 1948. The next three years were truly the greening years for Frank. While majoring in the Sciences, he in fact was growing up. Fortuitously he joined the Varsity Outdoor Club, and he threw himself into its activities – skiing, climbing, hiking, and a wonderful social life, which served to develop his self-confidence and sense of self-worth. He remained in contact with some members until his death six decades later. For one forgettable season he also played American Football with the UBC Thunderbirds. He earned his way through University working as a logger. One summer he and big brother Bob felled the great fir trees on a mountainside above Jarvis Inlet, using a crosscut saw and springboards – probably one of the last sets of fallers to do this before these tools were replaced by the power saw. Unwisely, he left University before completing his degree, and completely at loose ends, ended up working for one season on the Twin Lakes Dude Ranch, west of Penticton. Through the rest of his life Frank maintained that this was the best job he had ever had – at $60 a month plus room (in the bunkhouse) and board! He worked initially with the hay crew in Olalla, driving a team of horses pulling a hay wagon; later was promoted to wrangler, looking after all the riding horses, and taking the guests out for daily trail rides. The ranch has now been subdivided, and the fairways and greens of the Twin Lakes Golf and Country Club now occupy the former horse pasture. His careers began as a trainee for Canadian Forest Products, and for the next 10 years he worked in the forest industries as worker, foreman, superintendent and manager, in the Okanagan and in Quesnel. During this time, he married Margot Tysoe, a nurse and beautiful Vancouver socialite who cheerfully moved to her “little home in the North” where they happily stayed for the next 15 years. Children soon followed. Stephen was born in 1953, followed by Katherine and Cameron. Eventually the young couple came to realize the cause of all these pregnancies! Danielle was born six years later. When his mill manager job was sold out from under him, he cast about for a new career, and Frank decided to become a teacher at Quesnel High School. This was the beginning of his long, varied and successful career in education. The next ten years were busy with child raising, career development and community participation. Margot was perennial president of the Bouchie Lake Saddle Cub and Frank had a few wild and crazy years as Secretary of the Bouchie Lake Rodeo Club. Their home and little farm on the lakeshore, was continually filled with friends; 4H animals, and horses. Early in his teaching career, Frank and family moved to Vancouver for a year so he could earn his permanent teacher’s certificate at U.B.C. He also completed his B. Sc. and began a Master’s Program, which remained unfinished. He taught Mathematics and Biology at Quesnel High; initiated a 2 year Forestry program, and was promoted to Department Head. He loved his students, and they returned his affections. Grad breakfasts were an annual affair at the Dolman home. In 1967 he was promoted to Director of Adult Education for the school district. The program thrived under his guidance, and he also hosted a weekly program on local radio, and edited a monthly newsletter for the school district. He also contributed significantly to the development of the provincial “New Mathematics” curriculum. In 1969 he accepted a foreign aid posting to
Trinidad and Tobago and was appointed to the education faculty of the University of the West Indies as an “expert in the new math”. The three years that followed evolved as wonderful years for Frank and his family. Steve, Kathy and Cam were teenagers now, and met the challenge of separate boys and girls schools, school uniforms, British-based curriculum, immense cultural change and being a part of a tiny minority of white kids. Margot volunteered as a nurse in a medical team which performed corrective surgery on children with cleft palets. Frank plunged into his teacher-training duties, and gained a great admiration and respect for his students and the local teachers who persevered under always difficult, sometimes brutal teaching conditions. The family made many friends, and enjoyed hours of fun aboard “Defender”, a 26 foot sloop which Frank acquired. They had many other adventures, including living through an attempted revolution. They returned to BC in 1972, and Frank worked for the Ministry of Education for a year, heading a group developing a new provincial Adult Basic Education curriculum. During this time he published several papers and edited a provincial newsletter. He then moved to Mission to work for the School District, and on April 1, 1974 was appointed to a committee to organize what became the University of the Fraser Valley. He and two others became its first permanent employees. He stayed with the College until retirement in August 1989 working at what he described as his greatest and most satisfying professional experience. He was proud of the fact that he initiated the Fraser Valley Symphony Orchestra as a College program in 1984. He served in several administrative positions, his final and preferred one was Director of Continuing Education. His work was recognized at the provincial level by the BCACE and the BCAVA. Unfortunately, his personal life was not so successful. He and Margot separated in 1976 and divorced soon after. In 1978 his second son, Cameron tragically drowned while adventuring in Mexico, and his father Jack died that same year. Ever buoyant, Frank began a new life in the 1980s. Now living in Abbotsford with Danielle, who was in high school. He made new friends, enjoyed some wonderful dalliances, and settled happily into midlife. He travelled extensively; earned a scuba ticket in the Red Sea; he smoked opium in the Golden Triangle; and walked the Via Della Rosa once on a Good Friday. He had joined the Valley Musical Theatre Guild in 1975, and took part in Broadway musicals, Gilbert & Sullivan operettas and stage dramas for the next 20 years. In 1981 Enid, 15 years his junior, dynamic, beautiful, talented, swept into his life, and changed it forever. They were to spend the next 22 years together, living apart, but committed to each other. They shared the good and bad times; job changes; personal setbacks and triumphs. They travelled the world together, from sailing at Club Med to touring the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg. Enid accompanied Frank on his pilgrimage from midlife into his senior years, a wonder, passionate, and tempestuous journey. Here however, Frank faced a difficult change. In the summer of 2003, Enid left him for a younger, wealthy Australian. Gradually healing his wounds, Frank looked to other things in his life – his many friends; playing golf and tennis; continuing with the Vancouver Welsh Men’s Choir; and most of all, enjoying his children and seven grandchildren. All gave him support. He survived and eventually flourished. In the winter of 2005 he met D’Anne who again brought love to his life. She proved to be a wonderful companion and the person he needed at that time of his life. For the past 5 years, despite mounting medical problems and the various indignities of aging, Frank remained positive and content, although he was fond of saying that “getting old was not for the faint of heart”. Family and friends gathered close and Frank continued to regale them with tales of his life; he recognized how fortunate he had been, reflected upon the fullness and richness of his many experiences, and the deep joy and love he shared with his family and many friends. Frank passed away peacefully August 18, 2011, in Abbotsford, BC at the age of 82; sail on, sweet man, keep your face to the sun and the wind at your back. A Celebration of his Life is planned for Saturday, October 1, 2011 at 2:00 pm at the Hole-in-the-Wall, 3807 Eldridge Road, Abbotsford, BC. Take the Whatcom Road Exit, east of Abbotsford, go to the north side of the freeway onto North Parallel Road, heading east; it will become Eldridge – follow it to the Private Property sign on the left. Frank asked that, if desired, donations be made in his name to the Vancouver Welsh Men’s Choir, Box 2978, Main PO, Vancouver, BC V6B 3X4. For further information, you may contact his daughter Katherine at 604-556-4228 or e-mail the family at: katherine.littler@yahoo.ca
