It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, son, brother, uncle, grandpa and

he met and fell in love with his high school sweetheart Anne Detta. They were married in 1982 and had their son, Matt in
1988 and daughter, Jessica two years later.
At the young age of 15 Lance worked at the sawmill for Crestbrook Forest Industries for a short time and soon joined his
father Carl and brother Ivar logging for Crestbrook and later joined as partners under Carl Larson Enterprises.
Lance's greatest love was his enjoyment of life with family and friends. Lance was a very caring and giving person. He
especially enjoyed the great outdoors camping and the frequent getaway vacations with his loving wife and wonderful
friends.

(Penny), Nathan, sister Iona, mother Muriel, father Carl, mother-in-law Beryl, father-in-law Wilf, brother-in-law David, sis-

We seek your input into the Columbia Valley Permanent Resident Retention & Attraction Strategy
The municipal partners of the Columbia Valley* are developing a Resident Attraction and Retention Strategy.
I'm sure you appreciate that the region already has a lot going for it, but we want it to be better. We want it
to be a place that is top of mind for those who are looking for a place to live full-time or start a small
business.
You and your family are invited to join fellow residents and people from southern Alberta who own property
in the Columbia Valley to workshop/focus group sessions that will help us to shape the region's future. We
want to know what would make the Columbia Valley more appealing to you. What can be done to help
attract new residents? But just as important, how can we keep you happy living here?
With your input, real progress is possible. The more we understand your perspective, the more effective our
solutions will be. We would love to hear from you!
Join us for an open conversation and refreshments.
