Change for new owners

EaglesdropcoachNick GreenizanStaff Reporter

The new owners of the Surrey Eagles wasted little time putting their own stamp on the team.

On Tuesday – the group’s first day of ownership – Shane Kuss was fired as the team’s head coach, and replaced by assistant coach Matt Erhart.

Chuck Westgard, who heads the new ownership group, said the decision came after a few weeks of reflection and research.

“We just want a new start,” said the South Surrey real estate developer, who purchased the team along with childhood friends Gary Nylund, an ex-NHL defenceman, and Scott Bradley, who works in the front office with the Boston Bruins.

Erhart, 31, was head coach of the B.C. Major Midget League’s Greater Vancouver Canadians for two years, prior to spending a season with the Eagles.

Foul play ruled out in woman’s death

Police have ruled out foul play in the death of a Lower Mainland woman whose body was discovered on White Rock beach Tuesday.

“It’s no longer a suspicious death,” White Rock RCMP Sgt. Paul Fletcher said Thursday, noting the woman’s family has been notified and her name will not be released.

The woman, aged 40 to 50 years, was found

around 8 a.m. Tuesday on the BNSF right-of-way in the 14300-block of Marine Drive.

She was found at the high-tide line, fully clothed and with no obvious signs of trauma.

Members of the Integrated Homicide Inves-tigation Team were called to assist at the scene – its third case on the Semiahmoo Peninsula in as many weeks. Police presence also included

forensic investigators and RCMP officers, and attracted significant media attention.

Results of an autopsy conducted Wednesday were not available.

Police have released no new information on the Peninsula’s two recent homicides, May 16 in Morgan Creek and May 22 in the Douglas area.

Alexa Middelaercrash victim

Dan FergusonBlack Press

The lawyer for a Delta woman charged with impaired driving in the death of four-year-old Alexa Middelaer is fight-ing to exclude some police testimony from the trial.

David Tarnow is arguing police did not follow procedure on May 17, 2008, the day Carol Berner drove her Olds-mobile Intrigue into Alexa and her aunt as the pair fed a horse in Ladner.

Thursday, Const. Sarah Swallow told court she arrested Berner for impaired driving after Berner failed a roadside screening test at the crash scene. The device is set to display a fail reading when a person’s blood-alcohol level is 100mg/100ml or higher, Swallow said.

During a medical exam at the hospital, Swallow said, she heard a doctor ask Berner if she had had anything to drink. Berner responded, “I’ve had a couple glasses of wine today,” Swallow said.

At the police station, Swallow said, she could smell alcohol on Berner’s breath.

Tarnow is expected to cite Charter of Rights breaches in his arguments.

Swallow testified on Day 4 of testi-mony in Surrey Provincial Court. The trial is scheduled for 16 days.

After initially trying to avoid news cameras Monday, Berner faced report-ers during a break from trial Tuesday.

Berner emerged from the courthouse flanked by Tarnow and his co-counsel,

Jason Tarnow, after the senior lawyer extracted a promise that no questions would be asked of her directly.

David Tarnow said it was important that his client be tried in a court of law, not “a court of public opinion.”

He said Berner, whom he described as a “mother and grandmother,” was “extremely sorrowful,” but was not crim-inally responsible for what happened.

A tearful Berner said nothing.� see Witnesses page 3

Any day now, people crossing the Port Mann Bridge will see its

replacement start to take shape.

The southern tower of the new 10-lane bridge will start to rise this month, and it will be higher than the level of the existing bridge.

Associated work on Highway 1 is also well advanced. The road is being widened, overpasses are being constructed and a great deal of excavation and fill work is underway.

New lanes near 160 Street will be paved later this month, and traffic will be shifted onto them – the first place along the entire project, which extends from 216 Street in Langley to First Avenue in Vancouver, where traffic will be using the newly-constructed highway.

Despite all the political hot air generated by this project over the past number of years, there is no doubt it is badly needed. The existing Port Mann Bridge and Highway 1 are inadequate for traffic volumes.

It has been impossible to schedule transit service over the bridge because there is no way a schedule could be met.

The new bridge and highway improvements will make it possible to schedule buses along

the highway. They will not get

caught in traffic because there will be dedicated bus lanes, and transit service should improve.

However, the imposition of a toll will create political issues.

The Golden Ears Bridge toll has kept many people from using that new bridge. In fact, TransLink is considering reducing the toll at non-peak

times to try to attract more traffic. In the case of Golden Ears, a toll is necessary as it was an integral part of how the bridge was built and financed. The Port Mann Bridge was initially going to be built under a similar arrangement, but no private-sector partner was willing to shoulder the risk involved.

Thus the provincial government will be making the final decision on tolls without having to satisfy private-sector financiers’ needs.

The current government may or may not have learned few lessons from the HST fiasco, but if it plans to go down the toll

path when the bridge opens in 2013, just a few months after an election, that decision won’t help the Liberals at the polls.

The NDP, who have plenty of wind in their sails thanks to the enormous HST backlash, may gain a lot of extra votes simply by promising not to impose tolls when the new structure opens. They may decide to pay for it out of general revenue.

Then there is the strong likelihood of a third party being a force in the 2013 election.

If that party campaigns against tolls, it will put more pressure on the two main parties.

The entire toll issue will likely become a political hot potato as completion of the bridge nears.

The Liberals may wish to stand their ground on tolls, on the premise of fiscal responsibility and user pay, but their reputation for competence has taken a severe beating with the ham-handed way the HST was introduced and their almost non-existent defence of its virtues.

Given the current anti-tax, anti-politician mood, the Port Mann Bridge tolls may well prove to be a defining political issue.

newsBedside wedding in hospital

Last wishfulfilledTracy HolmesStaff Reporter

When the time came for Stephen Price and Patricia Hinschberger to exchange wedding vows, Hinschberger didn’t hesitate to ask for what she needed: Band-Aids.

And just as Cary Grant did for his bride in the 1964 Oscar-winning movie, Father Goose, she placed one on the third finger of Price’s left hand and kissed it.

“His eyes lit right up. He knew what I was doing,” Hinschberger said, noting there

wasn’t a dry eye during that May 12 moment at Price’s bedside in Peace Arch Hospital.

The memory is precious, but bittersweet.

After 30 years together, Price died five days later, on May 17 – two months to the day after his diagnosis with terminal cancer.

The South Surrey man was 54. Marrying Hinschberger had been his dying wish.

And while Hinschberger has decades of memories of a vibrant, fun-loving Price who enjoyed camping and dancing, she is only just starting to find time to reflect.

Due to finances, she had to wait nearly two weeks just to lay her husband to rest.

“I haven’t had a time to grieve. It’s horrible,” Hinschberger said last week, days before Price’s cremation came together.

Peace Arch News first reported Price’s story in April, after he said he was refused treatment for his peritoneal mesothelioma at Peace Arch Hospital. (A Fraser Health spokesperson disputed this).

Price’s rare condition – linked to asbestos exposure – was causing his abdominal cavity to fill with fluid, and he had arrived

at the PAH emergency department to have it drained.

The procedure had been done there twice before, and needed to be done every 10 days to two weeks, he said. But the third time, Price was told he’d have to go elsewhere, and the procedure was done at Royal Columbian Hospital.

Subsequent needs for the procedure were done at PAH, Hinschberger noted.

When diagnosed on March 17 – Hinschberger’s birthday – Price was given no more than a year to live. And while the couple had hoped to find some quality time along the way, Hinschberger said Price’s

final two months were stress-filled, as they scrambled to get him treatment – an obstacle complicated by the potential the

treatment could damage the kidney he received in a transplant 19 years ago – and have his condition recognized as a workplace injury.

“I was on the phone 24/7,” Hinschberger said. “We could’ve used that time and actually just gone somewhere, just for a day or something. That’s all he wanted.”

Hinschberger said she does feel her husband is at peace now.

He first popped the question 30 years ago,

she noted, but the pair never tied the knot due to financial constraints.

He asked again this past Valentine’s Day.Hinschberger said she is grateful to those

who helped make it happen before Price died – including Rev. Stuart Lyster, who officiated the wedding, and former nurse, Barbara Davison, who helped organize the necessary paperwork – and to those who have helped her in the weeks since.

Rarely has a day passed since that cards or baked goods aren’t left at her door, or chores taken care of while she’s out, she said.

“I wish there was some way I could thank everybody who had anything to do with Steve,” she said.

Confusion over treatment

TerminalpatientfrustratedTracy HolmesStaff Reporter

A South Surrey man diagnosed with ter-minal cancer two weeks ago says Peace Arch Hospital staff delivered “a kick in the teeth” by refusing to treat him Friday.

But Fraser Health officials insist a lengthy wait for treatment was more likely the issue that saw Stephen Price redirected to Royal Columbian Hospital.

“Nobody’s ever turned away,” Joan Marshall said Tuesday. “They would never refuse to do anything... but I know it has been a very busy time for the emergency department.”

Price said he attended the emergency department April 2 to have his stomach drained of fluid build-up associated with his peritoneal mesothelioma. The 54-year-old said he has had the two- to six-hour pro-cedure done at the local hospital twice before – as recently as Feb. 26. And he will need it done every 10 days to two weeks for the rest of his life, which he’s been told will last no more than six months to a year.

Price said he arrived at the emergency ward at 9:45 a.m. Friday, with his abdomen swollen six to eight inches with excess fluid. After waiting two hours, his doctor said staff told him Price would have to go elsewhere.

He was told staff advised his doctor “they were understaffed and too busy and they couldn’t be bothered to treat me,” he said.

“Since when does a hospital refuse some-body?”

Price’s physician Dr. Milan Hainc said Tuesday – through his staff at Semiahmoo Medical Clinic – that Price was turned away because the procedure he needed is not available at Peace Arch Hospital.

Marshall, however, told Peace Arch News that was “not at all” the case. As well, she is not aware of any staffing issues at the hospi-tal that day.

Price said he is not the only one outraged by what happened. According to the patient, administration at Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster – where nine litres of

Society tries to salvage sea festHannah SutherlandStaff Reporter

The Spirit of the Sea Festival will go ahead this summer, but it may not be on the same scale the com-munity has come to know it.

That’s according to the head of the Community of Lights Event Soci-ety, which is stepping up to plan the August long-weekend celebra-tion after the City of White Rock’s call for proposals for an organizer went unanswered last fall.

Matt Todd, a former city coun-cillor, said members of the society met last week to decide whether to con-tinue involve-ment with the festival, after a city report that criticized orga-nization of last year’s event left volunteers “feel-ing wounded

and totally demoralized.”Mayor Catherine Ferguson said

Tuesday she is optimistic planning will move ahead, and a report will come before council at its April 12 meeting.

“We are absolutely working to find solutions and ensure (the fes-tival) happens for the community and for businesses,” Ferguson said.

While there was a consensus among his society’s members to participate again this year, Todd said they have to catch up on two months of planning.

“The challenges that we have right now is that it’s April, and we normally would’ve been in our full-swing planning a month or two ago.”

Surrey RCMP’s serious crimes unit is

investigating after a six-week-old infant left

sleeping in an idling car Monday night was

inadvertently abducted when an opportu-

nistic thief hopped behind the wheel.

Police believe the culprit likely didn’t look

in the back seat, where the baby was snug-

gled, when he or she stole the car from a

driveway near 152 Street and 26 Avenue.

The distraught family reported the inci-

dent to police shortly after the vehicle disap-

peared. It, and the baby, were quickly found

abandoned – and unharmed – in the park-

ing lot of a funeral home near 148 Street and

28 Avenue.Police believe the thief abandoned the car

as soon as it was realized there was a pas-

senger.“The baby is safe and has been returned to

the family,” said Const. Peter Neily.

Neily would not disclose the sex of the

baby or any further details, citing the ongo-

He did say the incident is a reminder to

residents not to leave their vehicles idling

unattended or with keys in the ignition.

BIA resolution

can’t wait: judge

Alex Browne

Staff Reporter

The contentious issue of White Rock’s rival

Business Improvement Associations moved

one step closer to resolution Thursday, as

Justice Robert Crawford heard arguments in

B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster.

Plaintiff Bill Lawrence, president of the

original BIA, is seeking an injunction against

defendants Larry Anschell, Bob Yearsley,

Dave Chesney, Johan Sandstrom and oth-

ers, who – in the words of Lawrence’s lawyer

Rick Henderson – are “repre-

senting themselves as direc-

tors of the BIA.”

The court action is focused

on whether a July 7 meet-

ing, called by the defendants

with the purpose of examin-

ing past actions of the BIA

and establishing a new board, was properly

requisitioned.

In outlining his case Thursday morning,

Henderson argued the defendants had not

given adequate advance notice of the meet-

ing (which under BIA bylaws should be 21

days or more) and had not had the 10 per

cent of membership required to requisition

the meeting.

He also argued that under the B.C. Soci-

ety Act, the notice of meeting should have

included a notice of special resolution to

remove the existing directors.

Henderson said a court ruling on whether

or not the meeting was properly requisi-

tioned would be “a substantial resolution for

the plaintiff.”

Crawford ruled against a motion for

adjournment fom Anschell, who is repre-

senting the defendants.

Anschell argued that they had received

affidavits late and would not have sufficient

time in a one-day hearing to respond to the

affidavits and make their case.

“I’d like the opportunity to cross-examine

these affidavits, but I know that’s not permit-

ted in this type of hearing,” Anschell said.

Henderson, noting he was not relying on

the affidavits to make his case, argued that

Anschell had already won an

adjournment when the mat-

ter was before the courts on

Jan. 5. He also noted that

the term of funding for the

BIA expires on March 31,

and that the city of White

Rock is awaiting a decision

on renewing the funding.

“History has shown that Mr. Anschell has

filled time substantially,” Henderson said.

In his ruling on the motion, Crawford said

he recognized the time element in the case.

“It’s important for the citizens of White

Rock that it’s resolved now,” he said.

“The city doesn’t see that happening. I

think it’s important we deal with that.”

In a separate hearing held in Supreme

Court Wednesday, Anschell had asked that

the old BIA provide security of $30,000 to

cover costs in the event the decision in the

main case went in the defendants’ favor.

This was denied.

Anschell was to present the defendants’

side Thursday afternoon, after deadline.

Canadian airports remained on heightened alert

yesterday after renewed fears of a terrorist threat

led Transport Canada to issue a warning to “exercise

increased vigilance.”

“There’s some specifi c information that certainly

John Baird.

He said new, specifi c information about a

potential attack led his agency to issue the

warning, which comes in the wake of the

thwarted Christmas Day attack on a U.S.

airliner.

Baird wouldn’t discuss the threat specifi -

cally, but he said it’s not considered imminent

and isn’t anything like 9-11. The warnings are not

meant to create panic, he said.

Transport Canada spokeswoman Maryse Durette

said no new security measures will be put in place in

response to the warning.

“Basically we want them (the airports) to ... exer-

cise increased vigilance when they do their work.”

Durette could not say why the warning was issued.

Ottawa has put Canada’s airports on high alert after specifi c, but undisclosed, information raised concerns.

PORT-AU-PRINCE (Reuters)

A major earthquake struck the capital of impov-

erished Haiti yesterday, toppling many buildings

and burying hundreds, possibly thousands, of

people under the rubble, witnesses said.

The magnitude 7.0 quake, whose epicentre was

inland and only 16 km from Port-au-Prince, sent

panic-stricken people screaming into the streets as

a cloud of dust and smoke from falling buildings

rose into the sky.

As offi ces, hotels, houses and shops collapsed,

people were screaming and running in all direc-

tions. The gleaming white presidential palace lay

in ruins, its domes fallen on top of fl attened walls.

The United Nations said a large number of its

personnel in Haiti were unaccounted for after a

fi ve-storey building at the UN mission collapsed.

“The whole city is in darkness. You have thou-

sands of people sitting in the streets with nowhere

to go,” said Rachmani Domersant, an operations

manager with the Food for the Poor charity. “There

are people running, crying, screaming.”

In the hillside neighbourhood of Petionville, Dom-

ersant said he saw no police or rescue vehicles.

“People are trying to dig victims out with fl ash-

lights,” he said. “I think hundreds of casualties

ld be a serious understatement.”

Gord Rasmussen is a wiry man with a gruff, no-nonsense way of speaking, but his voice shook Tuesday as he described how four-year-old Alexa Middelaer fought to breathe after she was hit by a car.

Rasmussen, 45, was the first person to reach her, running from a nearby backyard after he heard the crash in the 4300-block of 64 Street in Ladner.

“Come on sweetheart,” the former paramedic remembers saying as he knelt beside the badly injured child. “You need to take a deep breath.

“And she tried. And she made a horrible noise.”

After he asked her to try again and got the same result, he began mouth-to-mouth rescue breathing.

Rasmussen was testifying at the trial of Carol Ann Berner, the Delta woman who was at the wheel of the car that hit Alexa.

While Berner admits to being the driver, her lawyer, David Tarnow,

maintains she is not criminally responsible for the May 17, 2008 crash that killed the youngster and seriously injured the child’s aunt.

Prosecutors want Berner con-victed of two counts of dangerous driving causing death and bodily harm, and two counts of impaired

driving causing death and bodily harm.

Wednesday, the first paramedic on-scene, Richard Williston, testi-fied that Berner told him she did drink alcohol the day of the crash, but was “evasive” when he tried to establish how much.

In his cross examination, Tarnow asked Williston why he did not include

this information in his ambulance report or in his statement to a police officer one week later.

Williston replied he did not record Berner’s statement because it did not affect his medical treat-ment of her, and he could not give a reason for why he didn’t mention it to the officer.

Both Williston and ambulance

partner Richard McClellan said they did not smell alcohol on Berner’s breath, nor did they see her have difficulty walking.

Rasmussen also testified he did not smell alcohol on Berner.

Tuesday, he described hearing the crash while at a barbecue in the backyard of his friend, John Hembling. Hembling’s 35-year-old son, Dease, and his 33-year-old daughter-in-law, Rouvé, ran for the

street with Rasmussen.Rasmussen said he saw a red

car had piled into a hydro pole after apparently hitting a silver car. The red car’s motor was still run-ning, as were its windshield wipers, and Berner was still at the wheel. He reached inside and turned the motor off.

Berner kept saying, “oh my God” over and over, Rasmussen said.

When she got out of the car,

Berner seemed unsteady on her feet, but Rasmussen says he didn’t notice any smell of alcohol.

Hembling, who has industrial first aid training, said Berner appeared “obviously disoriented (and) con-fused” but he also could smell no alcohol. He said he got Berner to take a seat on the curb. At one point, she asked him to get her cigarettes and cellphone from the car.

Rasmussen had spotted Alexa’s injured aunt Daphne Johanson, who had suffered an obvious com-pound fracture. Then Rouvé dis-covered Alexa. The girl had landed against the base of a tree. She was covered in debris.

Outside court, Alexa’s father, Michael Middelaer, described the eye witnesses as “heroes.”

After each finished on the stand, Michael and wife Laurel – a prin-cipal at Southridge School – fol-lowed them out of the courtroom to thank them personally.

“Most people’s first instinct was to help. At the end of the day you realize most people are really decent,” Michael said.

Surrey RCMP are asking for public help identifying “persons of interest” in connection with a fire last weekend at an under-construction house in Ocean Park.

Police believe the May 29 blaze at the unoccupied home, located near 128 Street and 26 Avenue, was inten-tionally set, and they want to speak with a group of youth who were seen in the vicinity at the time, said Const. Peter Neily.

“They may either have information to offer – which is why we’d like to speak with them – or they could pos-sibly be suspects,” Neily said Wednes-day.

Police were called to the area around

1 a.m. on Saturday, after a passerby reported seeing the front door of a house on fire, Neily said.

The flames were quickly extin-guished, and damage was limited to the front-door area.

Investigators noted “obvious areas of accelerant” at the scene, Neily said.

A group of approximately five youth – two females and three males – aged 14 to 16 years were seen in the area at the time, with one of the males described as wearing a white hoodie with a black, tribal print.

The teens, or anyone with informa-tion on the incident, are asked to contact police at 604-599-0502.

There’s a pall hanging over Bike Month this year.

Anyone who’s ever spent any time on two wheels can’t help but feel a pang of trepidation heading out on their bikes after six cyclists were killed in one bloody, brutal eight-day stretch in early May. Three were killed in Quebec May 14 when a motorist inexplicably managed to mow down a group of six sport cyclists with his pick-up truck. Another was left for dead in a ditch after the vehicle that hit him fled the scene.

But perhaps more disturbing for those cyclists who ride to work every day through busy urban traffic, or enthusiasts who do 100-kilometre training rides in the country on the weekends, is the vitriolic commentary that accompanies the online news coverage of those tragedies.

Motorists say the roads were built for them, cyclists impede the efficient flow of traffic and flout the rules of the road, and that bikes should be on sidewalks. Cyclists say roads must be shared, and motorists are often aggressive or just oblivious to them.

Even after years of initiatives to promote safe cycling, like Bike to Work Week (running until June 6) and Bike Month, and the designation of special lanes and routes, there’s still a lot of ignorance and antagonism between motorists and cyclists.

South Surrey’s Dr. Steve Larigakis – who helped promote the Bike to Work initiative on the Peninsula – hoped having a large number of cyclists visible on the road would not only make other people feel safer about joining on their own bikes, but also help motorists become accustomed to sharing the road.

Sharing is a two-way street. And sharing the road requires a certain amount of empathy and respect from both parties, elements often sorely lacking on the mean streets.

Motorists must respect that cyclists are entitled to a share of the road. In fact, most are also motorists, so their tax dollars have helped build and maintain the roads on which they’re riding.

Conversely, cyclists must respect that with their right to share the road comes a responsibility to use it safely and legally. That means riding sensibly and predictably. It means following the same rules and protocols that govern the movement of heavier, and deadlier, cars and trucks.

More respect and responsibility is the best way to reduce future tragedy on the roads.

editorial

The wonderful thing about epiphanies, the good ones anyway, is you never know when

they’ll hit.The latest was a doozie, and

came at the end of a Friday four-miler. A few of us meet at 6 a.m. for a therapeutic trounce along 16 Avenue. Pace is usually slow, and conversations range from ribald to edifying.

Last week, I listened more than talked. I wanted to talk about My Son, but knew the run was too short. Like we’d solve the issue anyway – we never do.

But in the post-run stretch, while Doc Baker nursed a hamstring, I related how I’d been at Earl Marriott Secondary Class of 2010 commencement the night before, there to witness coming of age for one Zachery Thomas DeMone.

“And we’re coming home, just Vic and me, and I said: ‘How are we going to control him now?’”

Doc Baker’s eyes grew big.“You can’t!” he admonished. “You’ve

given them the tools. You’ve got to let them go.”

And DD – Don Gray, sage advisor – waited a tick before weighing in: “The key word is ‘control.’ Why are you trying

to control him?” Whack!I fumbled fatuous words to rationalize,

save a bit of face. Me? A controlling parent? Pish-posh! I’m a nurturing, gifted mentor who has given 18 years to raising a fine young man.

On second thought… how about this? How about a humble apology to my son. How about, I get it now. I understand, not so much you, but me.

I know it’s not about letting go. It’s not about giving you the reins of your life that Vickie and I have, until these last months, held while you rode the carriage of our life together, propped in our laps.

Sure, as you grew, we let you hold the the reins for a bit – but only on smooth stretches. As we espied curves or potholes or bone-rattling rumble strips, I wrested control. Now you want to be in charge. And as much as I say I’m good with that, I’m not.

Doc Baker said it’s time for you to be your own man. But have we given you enough? Have we taught right from wrong? Have I done the right things often enough, seen and unseen by you, that you get it?

I hear the hint of sarcasm when we

spar, and the rapier cut of your words reveals a less endearing gift I’ve given you. I hope you learn to harness that better than I did.

You are handsome, witty, intelligent and immensely loved. I know this because I see you interact with your friends and ours. And I beam.

It is time to give you the reins. It’s hard, because in doing that we say to you, and to the world “Here is Zac. Here’s the man we’ve nurtured and molded and helped to Become.”

I want to scream “WAIT! There’s more! It can’t be over yet, I’m not ready for it to be over yet...”

I’m scared I didn’t do you justice. That I wasn’t the parent you deserve. That I missed a life lesson I could have bestowed and didn’t. Suddenly, it feels too late. It slipped from adolescence to a period of jostling for control (that word again) to early adulthood.

It’s paradoxical. To show confidence in you, I must have confidence in the job I’ve done. Because if you take control, Zachery Thomas, it will mean our work here is done, or at least the heavy lifting.

There will, in time I suppose, be talks over barbecues and beers, where I nod sagely and impart patriarchal advice about cars, girls, interest rates and Jimmy Buffett. We’ll get to that.

But the lesson, the epiphany, is this:It’s not over. It’s just different. It’s you now, Zacman. Your life, your

reins.Be safe, have fun.We’re here if you need us.Rob DeMone is a former editor of the

Peace Arch News. He and spouse Vickie have lived in White Rock since 1999.

On the hot seatEditor: Re: Limited empathy, May 28 letters.

If I accept the common theme in the letters to the editor in the May 28th edition of this newspaper, all ordinary Canadians should be outraged at the expense account of our member of Parliament.

Certainly, politicians need to be held accountable. But, it seems Hiebert is not being given a fair hearing. Often when figures are quoted in a virtual vacuum and comparisons are made, pertinent information is overlooked.

Of the $637,093 in total expenses, $422,723 were costs incurred in running the constituency office. In reality, that figure is not exorbitant. The office is there to serve constituents of all political stripes.

Then there is the matter of the $214,360 in travel expenses. For those of us who are living settled lives, this seems excessive. But this needs to be placed in perspective.

One does not have to be a rocket scientist to know this expense account is miniscule in comparison to the total cost of government.

It would be inappropriate to compare my modest travel bill with that of a top-flight business executive. Is it any less appropriate to compare it to the expenses of a member of Parliament who is obliged to regularly travel the virtual breadth of the country?

Some members of parliament are obliged to maintain homes thousands of kilometers apart.

Any diligent member of Parliament is already making significant sacrifices in respect of family. Keeping the families of our representatives together should not be viewed as a luxury. Do we expect our parliamentarians to pay the

considerable travelling expenses of their young families or spend long absences from spouses and children?

We have a young member of Parliament who, as far as I can ascertain, is both competent and conscientious. Let’s at least give Hiebert a fair hearing!Ellis André, Surrey

It’s time for Russ Hiebert to do the right thing and either step down or announce he won’t be running for re-election.

The letters to editors of several papers have carried a large number of complaints of his excessive taxpayer-funded mailouts to constituents. I have complained to his office at least six times.

And now, to find out taxpayers have been paying airfares for his wife and kids to travel to Ottawa is outrageous. This is intellectually dishonest behavior, at best.Bill Phelps, Surrey

MP Russ Hiebert and his family travelled together in compliance with parliamentary guidelines.

Our MP lost his own father at an

early age, which likely adds to his yearning to be there for his children.

Russ Hiebert is extremely diligent about all his responsibilities and serves this area well.

I have known Russ for some years now, and he has never wavered from an absolute desire to serve his constituents and his country. L. Wright, Surrey

So, MP Russ Hiebert spent $637,093 of our money last year – the second most expensive MP in Canada – $214,360 of which paid for his family to fly between Ottawa and his home and constituency in South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale, because Russ doesn’t want to be apart from them. Ever.

I thought his constituency elected one MP, not four.

I guess we should be relieved that the Hieberts don’t have 10 or 15 kids. We couldn’t afford them.Jerry Steinberg, Surrey

An open letter to MP Russ Hiebert.I just read the article in the Peace

Arch News where you are defending your over-the-top travelling expenses because it is important to

keep your family together. I do not accept it is up to the

taxpayers to pay for the cost of your wife and children to travel – especially first class.

As a senior VP of a multinational corporation, my husband travelled constantly. I stayed behind, worked full-time in my own career and carried the bulk of the day-today parenting. Not easy, but we understood our family time was important and we made the most of our strengths and abilities to ensure the family remained strong.

We did not, however, expect the company to pay for us all to travel.

Every family in your constituency deserves better than to see their taxes spent so casually.

You knew when you were elected that you would be spending time in Ottawa. Your decision.

My decision is you will not be receiving another vote from me or anyone else I can convince that it is time for you to be away from the public trough. Perhaps our elected officials should be compelled to spend time in the private sector in order to have a reality check.Linda McLevy, South Surrey

Marine patrol appreciatedEditor: Re: Marine Drive speedway, March 17 letters.

A couple of months ago, I wrote a letter to the editor regarding speeding on Marine Drive and the lack of police presence.

I am writing now to say I was very pleased on the May long weekend to see the RCMP out in full-force, pulling over many speeding drivers along Marine Drive.

I realize the difficult job that the police have, in this day and age, and I just wanted to let them know that the citizens really appreciate everything that they do. Thank you for enforcing the posted speed limit.

Unfortunately, the minute you leave the area, the Nascar race begins again, but while you are around, it is quite a bit more civilized!

Kudos and thank you very, very much.Sandy Cooper, White Rock

Way to go! Good job to the RCMP, finally enforcing the 30 km/h speed limit on Marine Drive. The residents of this fine community thank you for your efforts. Yay!

Now if only we could find a way to make everyone obey it all of the time, not just when the RCMP are watching!Frank Hutchinson, White Rock

Tears of joy from a strangerEditor:

On May 19, my friend, Maria, was stopped at an intersection with her scooter on 152 Street in South Surrey.

A man in a white car, who was also stopped at the intersection, gave a passerby a beautiful long-stemmed red rose and asked him to give it to the lady in the scooter.

Maria, who was dealing with some issues of her own, was so touched by the unexpected kindness that she

cried all the way home! She would like to thank the kind

gentleman and wish him God’s blessing.K. Koop, White Rock

Traffic lights long overdueEditor: Re: Light speed stalls Marine drivers, May 14 letters.

Thank you, White Rock council, for the lights on Marine Drive.

They are very helpful. Good for council. I think the

traffic lights were long overdue, and commend council for their forward thinking in this matter.

I have lived in White Rock on Marine Drive for more than 20 years. Trying to get access to Marine Drive from Oxford and from the Boathouse entrance on to Marine Drive during a sunny day is almost impossible.

I have on many occasions simply gone over to Stayte Street and made a right-hand turn to get home.

I also enjoy the new sidewalk and safer railing. The overgrowth of trees is another matter. Jack P. Scott, White Rock

Giving ade to a supreme visitorEditor:

My son and his friend decided a lemonade stand was a good idea for May sunny long weekend.

A limo drove by them on the Sunday, apparently not interested. However, it subsequently turned around and drove up to their stand.

Out popped Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts, who requested five glasses of lemonade for her friends. She paid $10 – including a very generous tip!

The two boys – Nicholas Pusic and Jason Lozado – were ecstatic.

They came running over to our home yelling, “Dad! Dad! You’ll never guess what just happened!

“We just sold five lemonades for 10 bucks to our mayor, Diana Ross, in a limo!”John Pusic, Surrey

Long-serving former Surrey alderman Garry Watkins has died.

Watkins, who served on Surrey council for 19 years, died suddenly on May 26. He was 70 years old.

He was known as an enigmatic public repre-sentative and a tireless worker for the causes he cherished.

Coun. Marvin Hunt served for several years with Watkins, and remembers him as a lot of fun to be around.

Watkins often took up left-

leaning causes, Hunt recalls, but his campaign contributions were well-stocked with free-enterprise

donations. Watkins would take

campaign notes, but would write them in English words, but with Greek lettering so they couldn’t be read by competitors. Hunt told him at one point that he could read Greek, and Watkins said, “Oh, I’m not worried about you.”

He will be sadly missed by his wife Anne, his

daughters Laura Watkins and Julie LaRiviere, and his grandchil-

dren Larissa Warkentin, Lindsay Warkentin, Nick Warkentin, Erik LaRiviere, Lauren LaRiviere, Syl-via Watkins and Ella Watkins.

Watkins was predeceased by his son, Thomas Watkins, in 2008.

He also has one surviving brother, Joe Watkins, as well as many nieces and nephews.

A celebration of life will be held at 1 p.m. Friday, June 25 at Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre, 14831 28 Ave. Dona-tions to BC Children’s Hospital in Watkins’ memory would be appreciated.

Condolences may be offered at www.victoryfuneralcentre.ca

Garry Watkinsformer councillor

Tracy HolmesStaff Reporter

Gordon Hogg remembers the moment he determined he’d run for politics.

Fresh from attend-ing his first city council meeting, he was sitting at the kitchen table of his family’s home, drinking a glass of milk and eating a peanut butter sandwich.

His mom, Kay, asked him how the experience went, and Hogg remem-bers telling her, “Oh Mom, it was old people making stupid decisions.”

Kay stopped, looked at her son and said, “I always hoped I’d raised you to be the kind of per-son who, if they didn’t like some-thing, you wouldn’t complain about it, you’d do something

about it,” the now Surrey-White Rock MLA recalled Thursday.

And that was that.The memory was an

emotional one for Hogg, who shared it just days after his mom died.

She was surrounded by family, at her home in the Dr. Al Hogg Pavilion, the building renamed years ago in tribute to her husband, the community’s first doctor.

It was peaceful, Hogg said, describing his

mom’s final breaths May 29. She was 91.

Encouraging her children to get involved was Kay’s way, and she led by example, Hogg said.

Like her husband, Kay was one of the city’s pioneers. The mother

of four was a founding member of the Peace Arch Hospital Aux-iliary, and active in the Rotary Anns and Daughters of the Nile.

Hogg and his brother, John, described her as a woman of grace, compassion and strength.

Her comment that defining night was just one of the ways she instilled the lesson, that “it’s a lot more important than you and us – it’s about a community and being involved,” Hogg said.

“She did all of those things and she expected those things of us, encouraged those things in us.”

John Hogg remembered his mom’s incredible sense of play. It “enabled us to experience our childhood in such neat ways,” he said.

A service is to take place at 3 p.m. June 22 at First United Church, 15385 Semiahmoo Ave.

Two professionally renovated homes on the Peninsula will be part of a public tour hosted by the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association this month.

On June 13, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the 17th annual Parade of Renovated Homes will showcase leading-edge design, advanced construction techniques and innovative building products used on 17 Lower Mainland houses.

In South Surrey, at 13090 Crescent Rd., a 40-year-old former summer home that has been remodeled to restore its west coast architectural style will be highlighted.

At 906 Stevens St. in White Rock, the public can visit a 20-year-old renovated home with a bay view, recycled-glass kitchen backsplash and specialty high-performance glass that reduces heat buildup, UV and glare off the water.

perspectives…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Tracy HolmesStaff Reporter

After 31 years in policing, Len Giles has stories to tell – about the time he

stopped a Soviet diplomat for speeding; about Chinese counter-espionage investigations; and his time with the RCMP Musical Ride, to name a few.

Giles has oft told of his awakening to the realities of communism in southeast Asia and of his view of the fall of the RCMP’s Security Service.

And after nearly two decades of regaling family and friends, the South Surrey man has put his views and experiences into print.

He describes Wearing Red, Tracking Reds: What a Ride! as a straight-up memoir of what he saw and experienced over the course of his career.

He touches on problems within the RCMP that date back to 1963, and the impact of the 1985 Air India bombing on the newly formed Canadian Security Intelligence Service, of which he was a part.

“I’ve stated it as it happened, as it affected me and the way it was,” Giles said.

Giles, who retired from policing in 1991, started tinkering with writing a book on his experiences about eight years ago. His role as registrar in the Braidwood Commission – which looked into the high-profile, RCMP-involved death of Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski at Vancouver airport in 2007 – was among more recent events that pushed him to finish the project.

“With the problems the RCMP has been finding itself in over the years and… when I look at what’s happened in my career and their declining image… it made me decide to try and get this thing together – maybe clear up some of the background,” Giles said. “The book, it kind of ties that stuff together.”

Working in his basement office, surrounded by books such as Inside Canadian Intelligence, The Shock Doctrine and Trudeau’s

Shadow – and with a circa-1941 history of the Triads, presented to Giles by a member of the Hong Kong police, nearby – the self-described novice historian wrote.

Along the way, he relived the difficulty of trying to do the right thing.

Giles’ first doubts about the RCMP surfaced in 1963, when he was accused of acting against directions he knew nothing about. In 1977, his “moral turpitude” was questioned, after he recorded an interview with a source that led to the discovery of who bugged a cabinet minister’s chair. While

some praised Giles’ work, one senior officer reprimanded him for not disclosing to his source that the conversation was being taped.

In 1989, Giles’ judgment as a manager and peace officer was questioned after an officer working in his section was accused of manipulating source payments.

“The innuendo was that I was protecting him, and I didn’t follow through and take police action and arrest him,” Giles said. “(The commissioner) accused me of not being a police officer.”

The tales are many, and Giles knows not everyone will agree with his take on what happened, or with how he views the RCMP today.

“Sure people are going to say, no, no, no, that’s not right – and that’s fine. We’ll see where it goes,” Giles said.

“Maybe I’m looking for the old, untarnished image and the feeling of pride I had when I came to my first detachment in Princeton, and I seem to have lost that.

“The force just doesn’t have the image it used to. It’s really sad for me as an ex-member... to

find myself now questioning the RCMP.”

Giles expects the full Braidwood report, on the circumstances surrounding Dziesanki’s death, will not help that image. Delivered to B.C.’s attorney-general last month, it is expected to be made public sometime in June.

He awaits the findings with the weight that had built up from his own experiences significantly eased by the publication of his book.

“It’s the best cathartic experience that you’ll ever go through,” he said.

Brian Giebelhaus photoAfter regaling friends with stories for years, retired RCMP officer Len Giles finally wrote them down – in his just-completed new book.

It’s hard to believe summer is just around the corner, and our residential summer-

camp program begins in just a few weeks.

More than 250 adults with developmental disabilities, youth with special needs and their families, teen moms and low income families will be looking forward to their stay at camp.

For most of them, this is the only break they get each year from their day-to-day routines and surroundings.

Our four-day residential teen and young mom camp is for young and expecting

moms to enjoy a fun, relaxing and stress-free experience with childcare provided throughout the day.

Activities include crafts, parent/child yoga, beach volleyball, campfire and much more. Subsidies are available.

New this year is our weekend camp for youth with special needs and their families. The camper’s whole family comes to camp, giving them the opportunity to meet other

families and spend time together away from the regular daily routines and schedules.

Parents get an opportunity to relax with other parents of youth with special needs, while siblings participate in the same fun-filled activities as their brothers and sisters.

Registration is now taking place. If you know of anyone who would appreciate exciting camp activities and an opportunity to enjoy a unique camp experience, please give us a call at 604-535-0015, ext. 238.■ Our Counsellors in Training program offers teens aged 13-15 an opportunity to learn skills and techniques necessary to become camp counsellors and/or recreation leaders with the emphasis on working with adults with special needs and young children.

Communication skills, leadership skills and planning are a few of the topics the CIT will learn while receiving ‘on the job’ experience volunteering directly with a counsellor at our

summer camps. For info, call 604-535-0015, ext. 238.■ We are also offering summer employment for various positions during our residential summer camps in June and July.

It’s a great learning experience as well as an opportunity to earn some extra money and still have a month of summer to enjoy.

For more information on employment opportunities, please visit our website at www.alexhouse.net.

Donni Klassen is program and communications director at Alexandra Neighbourhood House. For information on programs/services at Camp Alexandra, call 604-535-0015 or go to www.campalex.com

South Surrey resident Brita McLaughlin was recognized at the sixth annual Woman of Worth Con-ference last weekend, taking home the Leader of the Year Award.

Among other criteria, the honour is given to someone who strengthens her com-munity through innovative approaches to resolving chal-lenges, and inspires meaning-ful change.

McLaughlin was nominated by clients, friends and family for her work as a life coach, and as the founder of Glam and Glog, an annual social gathering that benefits less-fortunate families at Christmastime.

Last December, proceeds were directed to clients of South Fraser Women’s Services Society, with the evening bringing in 85 boxes and bags of food, $1,905 in gift cards and $1,213 in cash and cheques.

McLaughlin created a non-profit organization called Women with Heart to recognize those involved with the campaign.

“Women, when we collaborate, we’re so much stronger because we gain so

much from each other,” she said. Inspiring women to come together

and help others is one of the accom-plishments McLaughlin was recog-nized for at the May 29 Vancouver conference – which included speak-

ers, workshops and exhibi-tors for 800 female atten-dants – where she received the top prize.

“I just felt very humbled and full of gratitude and I know for sure... in terms of the support I have given any of my clients and the women I have connected with who have joined me with Women with Heart really pales in comparison to what I’ve learned from them.”

Friend Tonia Lenk said she nomi-nated McLaughlin for the award because she exhibits leadership with humility, and sets a positive example for others.

“She lives exactly how she’s asking women to be in their own minds,” Lenk said. “She has humanness, she has tears, she has challenges.

“Life is not perfect, but you never get the sense from her that she’s sur-viving, you get the sense from her she’s living.”

Now that cosmetic use of pesticides is no longer permitted in Surrey

or White Rock, there’s a place for effective and acceptable alternatives.

I’ve culled these from a range of sources and they use only “common or garden” ingredients. I’m sure many more are available.

Two of the principal problems for rose growers are aphids and black spot fungus. Growing a clove of garlic close to each rose bush deters aphids almost completely. Indeed, garlic is a helpful defence against many soil fungi, including damp-off and mildew, and is a general insect deterrent also.

There are at least two prescriptions for keeping black spot in check using domestic materials: spray monthly through the growing season with a solution of three teaspoons of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), one teaspoon of mild liquid soap or dish detergent – not the strong anti-bacterial kind – in 4.5 litres of water; alternatively, spray with a solution of equal parts of milk and water beginning right at

the start of the growing season and continuing for about two months.

Also, pick off and discard affected leaves as soon as

symptoms appear, but do not mix them into your compost pile where the spores might persist.

To keep rose bushes healthy and vigorous, another good defence is to mix a couple of chopped banana peels, a cup of Epsom salts (magnesium sulphate), half-cup of dolomitic limestone in 12 litres of water and apply this to each bush.

Like garlic, banana peels are very useful everywhere in the garden; they contain several essential elements – calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, sodium and sulphur – and can be buried either chopped or intact close to any flowering or fruiting plant with very positive results.

Insectivorous birds and ladybugs are valuable allies in the never-ending fight against insect pests and they should be encouraged as much as possible.

One practical general insecticidal spray comprises one tablespoon of garlic oil and three drops of dishwashing liquid in

a litre of water. An alternative is a cup of rubbing alcohol plus a teaspoon of vegetable oil in one litre of water. I’m told that substituting coffee for water significantly enhances the potency of the spray.

Whenever dishwashing liquid is mentioned in a home-based insecticide, it’s very important that you use only a mild form and avoid detergent or degreasing agents and anti-bacterial soaps especially, as they can be harmful to plants.

One general spray to protect against many common garden fungal pests is made up of a cup of chamomile tea, a half cup each of vegetable and peppermint oils and a teaspoon of liquid dishwasher or soft soap in 4.5 litres of water.

Another – rather messier to prepare – consists of one-half cup each of powdered milk and molasses and a teaspoon of baking soda mixed into a paste then steeped in 4.5 litres of warm water, strained and used as a spray.

A diluted solution of milk in water appears in many household recipes for anti-fungal sprays sometimes with additives, sometimes without.

businessMaking a move

Although Jose and Co. Custom Jewellers will be leaving its 105-1688 152 St. location this summer, the store won’t be moving far.

Owner Jose Latchinian said he will reopen in the new High Street development at 2970 King George Blvd. in the beginning of September.

“It’s time to move,” he said of the business, which has been on the Peninsula for 14 years.

“It’s a bigger place. It’s a nicer place; I really, really like the area.”

Operations will continue at the current location until the middle to end of August.Business closes

Earls Restaurant, located at 1767 152 St., closed May 16, and is not expected to reopen.

Initially, signs on the doors said the restaurant was closed for renovations, but Mark Berry, human resources

vice-president for the chain, confirmed this week the independently operated South Surrey location is likely closed permanently.

Barry said he is unable to disclose further details, referring questions to local operator Al Merriman.

Merriman refused comment Tuesday, citing a confidentiality agreement with Earls’ head office.

Knack for designWhen it comes to completing

a project, Riley Van Ryswyk likes to have the time he

needs to do the job properly, and a standard to top.

This gives him something to strive for so he knows he has gone beyond what is required to do the job well.

But last month, at the national Skills Canada competition in Waterloo, Ont., Van Ryswyk proved he didn’t need either of those to come out a winner.

Despite a strict schedule to work with and an unfinishable list of tasks to perform, the Grade 11 Earl Marriott student won gold in web design.

“It’s the time that makes it difficult,” Van Ryswyk said.

“I do enjoy having just as much time as I need.”

In the competition, held over the Victoria Day long weekend, Van Ryswyk had 12½ hours over two days to design a website for a fictitious restaurant, The Urban Grill.

The site had to be editable in the browser; include French and English versions; allow registration; and include ads and a photo gallery.

“If you have time and you have access... it’s not too difficult,” Van Ryswyk said.

In determining a winner, judges looked at the quality of design, compliance with industry standards, coding, functionality and more.

Van Ryswyk had some insight while

preparing for the event, courtesy last year’s national champion, Jason Cho, who happens to be his best friend. Van Ryswyk beat Cho at both the regional and provincial level this year to take the national seat.

The pair often engage in friendly competition, Van Ryswyk said, and

the chain of events that led to Van Ryswyk’s gold-medal win only spurred a continuation of the tradition. The friends are already gearing up to go head-to-head in next year’s Skills challenge.

Van Ryswyk credits his passion for design and engineering – and his desire to work hard – in large part to his grandfathers.

They always inspired him to do his best, he said – whether it was while building Lego structures as a child or in

encouraging him to learn something new.

“It always comes back to them,” he said. “My grandma always tells me how proud they would be of me.”

Van Ryswyk’s medal marks the fourth time EMS students have brought home national-level hardware in the website design category since 2006. Three of those wins have been gold.

Instructor Stephen Dawson noted Van Ryswyk was among seven EMS students to compete in Waterloo.

The school’s robotics team finished three points shy of the bronze medal. A team also competed in 2-D animation.

When Donny Chen performed his first recital, it was with some-one special in mind.

In fact, the entire theme of the concert – including its title, Jour-ney – was inspired by his older brother, who lost his fight with a rare form of cancer three years ago.

Andrew, like Donny, was an Elgin Park Secondary student who played in jazz band and was developing his singing skills with the guidance of a vocal coach.

He had lived on the Peninsula since he was nine – having moved from Taiwan with his mother, Patty, and Donny, then four – and attended University of Toronto upon graduating high school in 2005.

Andrew completed his first year of post-secondary before being diagnosed with neuro-blastoma. He was 19.

After receiving two stages of treatment that included chemotherapy and radiation in Taiwan, Andrew died Sept. 20, 2007.

A fundraiser was held in his honour the following Novem-ber at Elgin, when teachers and students shaved their heads for cancer research, support and pre-vention.

The effort, combined with dona-tions given at Andrew’s funeral, brought in more than $10,000 for the cause.

Donny, 17, decided to continue that legacy of giving by donating proceeds from his May 22 recital to the Canadian Cancer Society.

More than $4,000 was raised through ticket sales, advertising and donations.

The performance – organized with support from the White Rock Taiwanese Canadian Asso-ciation and held at White Rock Baptist Church – was a culmina-tion of two years of vocal classes, which Donny took from the same coach who instructed Andrew.

Although he admits he didn’t initially enjoy the lessons due to their focus on classical music, he slowly warmed up to the style, and began excelling as a dramatic tenor.

“I gained appreciation for it,” he said, noting one of his influences is Josh Groban.

Donny gained performance experience from singing in the concerts of other vocal students, who, in turn, appeared in his recital.

Despite the experience, nothing could have prepared the Grade 12 student for headlining his own two-hour show for 150 people.

“I was very nervous,” he recalled afterwards.

“Some people don’t get stage fright, but I think that’s a myth.”

Patty – who per-formed three songs at the recital, one of which was a duet with Donny – was more confident in her son’s abilities.

“I just love his voice. He has the power and the buildup,” she said.

“I know he’s good; I don’t worry about

him.”Donny sang 22 songs, ending

with his strongest, Ol’ Man River.While he had loosened up

and become more comfortable onstage as the show went on, he still had to tackle the encore pre-sentation, for which he chose a piece that had proven challenging in the past.

My Way by Paul Anka is about moving on, and Donny relates it to the impact his brother’s illness has had on his life.

During rehearsals, Patty said he had difficulties getting through it.

“He couldn’t control his emo-tions.”

But when Donny stood onstage to perform the song at his recital, he didn’t falter, using his power-ful voice to impart its message with emotion and grace.

For his brother.

What started as a marketing class assignment for an Elgin Park Secondary student has turned into a prize-winning project that will be mass produced and distributed to schools and community centres around the province.

Last month, 16-year-old Douglas Scan-drett was assigned to create five posters in one week, and submit the best one to the Teens Against Gangs contest.

More than 300 youth entered the com-petition – co-sponsored by the Vancou-ver Sun and the Gang Task Force – for a chance to win one of three iPads and

have their poster and its anti-gang mes-sage published.

Scandrett’s poster, which he spent three hours creating on his computer, depicts a television news report of a teen killed in a shooting. The words ‘There’s better ways to tell your parents you won’t be home for dinner’ appear along the top.

“It’s just supposed to symbolize how a parent would feel if they found out their kid was shot,” the Grade 11 student said. “Everyone always focuses on the youth making the right decision, but eventu-ally the kid has to learn it’s not just him or her who is affected by what he does with his life.

“It’s just to get kids to realize there are other people in the world, not just them.”

Scandrett also composed a write-up explaining what motivated him to create the poster.

He said that although gangs aren’t a major issue at Elgin, their impact is felt strongly elsewhere in the Surrey School District.

“Other schools in our district, it’s a huge problem, so that’s why I created (the poster), because not everyone can be fortunate enough not to have to deal with it every day.”

Alex BrowneArts Reporter

Early 20th century British author and playwright Githa Sowerby would be amazed.

She was only able to arrange for a single performance of her proto-feminist drama The Stepmother in London in 1924.

But now, more than 80 years later, her words are coming to life on the stage again, in Canada of all places.

After a well-received revival at the Shaw Festival in 2008, The Stepmother opens in its first community theatre production this week, presented by the White Rock Players Club at Coast Capital Playhouse.

It was considered a lost play, a mere footnote in Sowerby’s canon, until a copy was found in the files of the London office of theatrical publisher Samuel French.

Why had it languished in obscurity all this while? Alan White, who directs the current production, thinks he knows.

“I know there was a prejudice against female playwrights in that time which made it tougher for women to get their plays on stage – that’s one of the reasons,” he said.

“The other is that there was a big gap between her big stage success, Rutherford and Son, which was

produced before the First World War, and The Stepmother.”

White said the earlier play, a scathing indictment of capitalism which drew on her background as the daughter of the owner of a glass-making factory, had “made her a household name.”

But, by 1924, much of that fame had evaporated, he said.

Again, Sowerby drew on situations in her own life in developing the new play. It’s a grim tale of a woman trapped by marriage and convention: Lois Gaydon (played by Chloe Traynor in the current production) had been hoodwinked, while still a teenager, into marrying manipulative spendthrift, Eustace (Fred Partridge), and becoming the stepmother to his daughters, Monica (Rebecca McEwen) and Betty (Elyse Raible).

Ten years later, at 29, Lois is under few illusions about the irresponsible Eustace, or their marriage, or the reduced circumstances that have forced her to open her own dress-making business.

But her promise to provide a dowry for Monica, now 19 and engaged, precipitates a true understanding of the financial jeopardy Eustace has placed the family in.

There is one light on the horizon for Lois – a lover, Peter (John Holland) who lives next door.

“They are in a relationship, if not an overtly sexual one,” observed White.

“They have a deep love – a great fondness for each other.”

That this is considered a problem – not a resolution – is one of the things that surely stamps the play as a period piece.

In the context of 1924, divorce was a last

resort. It would surely ruin

Lois’ reputation – while continuing to endure a scoundrel like Eustace would not.

“Today’s audience will say – particularly women – ‘we’ve come a long way, baby.’ But not all the way. That’s the relevance of the play, to look at what has changed and what hasn’t,” said White.

It’s the first time directing in White Rock for White, who moved here with his wife, Lamorna, three

years ago. But the Wembley,

England-born theatre enthusiast has some 15 directorial credits as one of the founding members of the Solstice Theatre Society on Pender Island.

White said he was immediately drawn to The Stepmother when the assignment was offered to him.

“It’s an interesting play to read,” he said.

“I’m quite a fan of Ibsen and this has some of Ibsen’s touch in it. It’s a strong play with very

good characters.”White Rock-raised/

Studio 58-trained Traynor, playing older than her years, suits the role of Lois well, he said.

The show runs June 9 to 26, Wednesday through Saturday at 8 p.m. at the Coast Capital Playhouse, 1532 Johnston Rd., with a 2:30 p.m. matinee, Sunday, June 20.

Long-lost play resurfaces at Playhouse

Why is it that the words excitement and spontaneity always seem to follow “if”, “when” or “as soon as”? Wouldn’t it be great if we could put aside all the reasons why we don’t and just do?

Of course, certain realities prevent us from living up to our full spontaneous potential - work, traffic, chores, etc… It seems like there’s always a to-do list stuck between you and your free time. Remember that trip you wanted to take? That canvas you wanted to turn into a painting, or that forgotten recipe still hanging by a fridge magnet? Is it that the days got shorter? Or did we just forget to take a timeout?

Let’s go back to impromptu play dates and spur of the moment adventures- ones that work on two wheels or two feet. Skip the red lights and traffic jams and get moving on what you really want to do. Say yes to the bike-ride, that cooking class, the morning workout or the homemade meal. Because if we spend our lives driving to the moment instead of living in it, we’ll forever be asking, “Are we there yet?”

At Morgan Crossing, spontaneity is a built-in feature. It’s where your favourite restaurant, gym, shoe store, bakery, dry cleaner, hair salon and grocery store are only as far as the front door. It’s a nice change from typical suburbia where a mid-day lawn mow might be the closest thing you’ll find to spontaneity. There’s a community built around you, where you can walk to your wants and needs instead of tracking them with a GPS device. Watch life unfold in the courtyard, in the coffee shop or at the edge of your balcony. Here, time isn’t just spent, it’s enjoyed.

QMy mother died when I was three, and my father re-married quite a young

woman who did not adopt me. My father and his new wife had three children and decades later my father and step-mother died instantly in a car crash. Both of their wills provide that their whole estate goes to each other, and if one pre-deceases the other, my father gave

me 25% of his estate, but my step-mother gave me nothing. Because my Dad provided the lion’s share of the assets to the estate I think I should get something from this disaster.

AYou don’t. From your question I understand that your father was older than your stepmother so in the accident

he is presumed to have died rst, so his whole estate goes to your step-mother. You have no claim against your step-mother’s estate. You get nothing.

Ian Johnston’s art is garbage. Most of the time, anyways.

He knows it and regularly tries to swing away from using refuse materials in his work, frequently incorporating ceramic sculptures of various proportions. But inevi-tably, he returns to the trash heap for his inspiration, questioning global consumption and modern convenience in the process.

His exhibition, Transnational Absolute, on now at the Surrey Art Gallery, features three art-works.

The first is located in the tech gallery space outside the main gallery. Machine for Singing is an interactive piece involving ceramic bowls where the audi-ence activates something in a separate area. Johnston doesn’t want to give away the surprise for gallery visitors, but the con-cept is to illustrate that “we don’t understand the repercussions of our actions,” the Nelson-based artist says.

“The idea is they’re making something happen ... without realizing it.”

Also outside the main gallery are a trio of Johnston’s drape-molded ceramic works of human arms and a hip.

They are inspired by milagro charms, usually of various body parts, traditionally used as reli-gious offerings in Mexico and other areas of Latin America and attached to alters or shrines.

Johnston’s ceramic forms,

he says, are “milagros for our planet.”

The third, perhaps most dra-matic part of of the Surrey exhi-bition, is a ceiling-to-floor wall mural of mounted vinyl vehicle bumpers painted ultramarine blue. Titled Swimming Upstream in the Comfort of: Homage to Yves Klein (2006-2009), the piece points to how the consumer is often unaware what they’ve pur-chased or why.

“They (vinyl bumpers) kind of crept into our world without any-one noticing. Up until the 90s, everyone had steel bumpers,” Johnston says, adding it seems unfathomable that plastic bum-pers would be utilized to protect vehicles weighing thousands of

pounds.“The way we’ve used materials

over the 100 years has not been all that intelligent.”

Still, people have a choice in what they purchase, how they use them and how they dispose of things – and it’s something worth talking about, says the architect-turned-artist.

“It’s not about making people feel bad about wanting things,” Johnston says. “It’s to engage people in discussion.”

The show, entitled Ian John-ston: Transnational Absolute, is on display until June 21.

The Surrey Art Gallery is at 13750 88 Ave. For more informa-tion, call 604-501-5566 or check www.arts.surrey.ca

“I got really excited,” he said, recall-ing the morning he received the news via email. “It was kind of surreal. I

didn’t really expect it at all.”His fellow marketing classmate,

Grade 12 Ella Li, also went far in the competition, making the top eight with her creation.

Scandrett said submissions were judged on their general messages,

overall look and their ability to be reproduced.

Twenty thousand posters printed with designs by Scandrett and the two other winners – Krista Gibbard of New Westminster Secondary and Budimir Markovic of Sutherland Sec-

ondary in North Vancouver – will be distributed around B.C.

Scandrett, who practices a lot of graphic design, said it’s rewarding to have his work reach so many people.

“It’s kind of exciting just to be seen by a larger audience.”

The makers of Hong Kong’s Octo-pus card and London’s Oyster card are on TransLink’s short list to set up similar smart cards and turnstiles to control payment and access to the transit system here.

The faregates and cards system – initially estimated to cost $171 mil-lion – is to be in place by 2013.

TransLink expects to sign a contract by the end of the year with one of three groups of bidding firms:• Thales/Octopus International Proj-ects, maker of Hong Kong’s Octopus card.• Serco/Parkeon, provider of a smart card system in Perth, Australia.• Cubic/IBM, operator of the London Oyster card system.

All three bidders are suppliers of multiple existing systems in either Europe, Australia or major U.S. cit-ies. They were picked from 10 initial groups to submit detailed bids after a request for proposals is issued in mid-June.

Passengers will be able to load money on their smart cards, which have an electronic chip, and then use them for fare payment by swiping them past a reader as they board and disembark. Funds will automatically be debited from their accounts.

Along with the cards, some form of turnstiles would be installed at all SkyTrain and SeaBus stations, end-

ing unrestricted access to the rapid transit system.

It’s estimated 5.6 per cent of SkyTrain passengers don’t pay to ride, depriv-ing the system of $6 million a year, but critics contend staffing turnstiles are likely to cost far more than any money recovered.

The Expo Line will require renova-tions to accommodate turnstiles.

The province is providing $40 mil-lion towards the costs and another $30 million will come from the fed-eral government, with TransLink cov-ering the rest.

The new card system promises convenience for riders. It could also eliminate the current three-zone pay-ment system in favour of charging passengers based on either distance travelled or time on the system.

It’s also expected the system will give much better data on actual tran-sit use.

Transit smart cards, turnstiles step closer

The City of Surrey is planning for the collection of a full CURBSIDE ORGANICS COLLECTION SERVICE.

Surrey’s residents are currently diverting over 50% of their waste from landfill. Great job, Surrey! However, there’s more to be done. The City will be expanding its curbside collection program to include kitchen waste materials such as food scraps (meats, vegetables, fats, bones, etc), paper towels and tissues and other fibrous materials. By separating these mater-ials from the garbage stream, we can reach our target of 70% waste

diversion by 2015.

What kind of collection container will I need to use?

How often will my organics be collected?

Come listen to our exciting new plans for increased waste diversion, ask questions and give us your feedback.

sports…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Nick GreenizanSports Reporter

Getting a chance to be a part of the 2010 FIFA World Cup is about more than soccer for

South Surrey’s Sukhi Sandhu – it’s a chance to be part of history.

The longtime soccer coach leaves Saturday for South Africa, where he’ll be one of more than 16,000 volunteers at the prestigious 32-nation tournament, which begins June 11. It’s the first time FIFA has held the event on that continent.

“This will be unlike any World Cup ever held. It’s not a traditional FIFA base, like Europe or the Americas, and with (South Africa’s) recent history of apartheid, it’s a very interesting place,” Sandhu said last week.

“I don’t think any other host country has ever had to go through such infrastructure change in order to host it – they’ve built or renovated 10 stadiums, even had to build new roads.

Sandhu, who will be in South Africa until the end of the month, will work in welcome services in Port Elizabeth, welcoming guests at the airport, the official FIFA hotel and, on game days, at Nelson Mandela Stadium. He’s also scheduled to work a game in Durban between Brazil and Ivory Coast.

More than 15,000 volunteers were recruited from South Africa, with 1,500 more from across the globe. Sandhu – whose application was one of more than 70,000 received by FIFA – is one of just two volunteers from B.C.

Sandhu, who last year travelled to India with a U14 boys soccer team, saw an online request for volunteers last July, and applied “without ever anticipating anything coming from it.”

In February, he received an email

from FIFA informing him of his appointment. Sandhu, 44, has experience at large-scale events; he worked at Expo 86 and has also been an usher at the Pacific Coliseum – two things on his resume, on top of his soccer experience, that likely boosted his application.

Sandhu has coached four Surrey boys soccer teams to provincial titles, and is also a staff coach at both Duke

and Indiana University’s summer soccer camps.

“(FIFA) said they wanted volunteers who were passionate about the sport, and who were involved at the grassroots level,” he said.

His South African adventure will keep him from working at the university camps this summer.

“I actually just got an email from the Duke head coach, and he was pretty jealous,” Sandhu said. “He just said, ‘It’s an amazing opportunity, and

we’ll see you in 2011.’”World Cup volunteers receive

a daily stipend while at the tournament, but Sandhu has to cover travel costs – flight and accommodations – himself. He figures it will cost him between $3,000 and $4,000.

“But it will be an opportunity of a lifetime,” he said, adding that he plans to catch a few games as a spectator during his time off.

“It’s really starting to soak in now, and take shape. It’s getting close – I’m starting to get more and more requests to bring back T-shirts and souvenirs.”

Sandhu is a fan of both Brazil and the Netherlands – “I like the way they play,” he said – and also hopes one of the African countries can do well on home soil.

“It’d be really nice to see a team from Africa advance to the second stage... I think that would be great for the people there,” he said.

Brian Giebelhaus photoSoccer coach Sukhi Sandhu watches his daughter, Taryn, 7, work through some drills on the field. The veteran coach leaves this weekend for the World Cup, where he will work as a volunteer.

Kuss fired as coach of Surrey EaglesNick GreenizanSports Reporter

Shane Kuss was fired as head coach of the Surrey Eagles Tuedsay, one day after the new ownership group – led by local businessman Chuck Westgard – officially took control of the franchise.

Assistant coach Matt Erhart was promoted to head coach.

When news broke in March that the team was to be sold, Westgard said the coaching staff would remain intact, but after “thinking about it and doing some research,” decided to change direction and make the switch.

“It wasn’t something we originally planned on doing, but we just figured that, with us coming in, now was a good time for a fresh start and to rebrand the team,” Westgard said this week.

“It’s nothing personal, and the (team’s past record) only had a little to do with it.. we just wanted a new start.”

Kuss did not return calls seeking com-ment.

Westgard said brief thought was given to hiring a new head coach who would be new to the organization, but ultimately decided to go with the 31-year-old Erhart who, like

Kuss, is a former Eagles player. “It’s just a bit of a hunch, really,” Westgard

said of his new hire.“He knows the players, knows the league...

we know he’s got a great work ethic... We thought he deserved a chance, and we’re confident that, given this shot, he’ll be very successful in helping us put a winning team in place. He’s our guy going forward... it’s his baby now.”

Last season was Erhart’s first as assistant coach with Surrey. Prior to joining the B.C. Hockey League team, he spent two years coaching the Greater Vancouver Canadians

of the B.C. Major Midget League.“I’m excited. It’s a great honour for myself,”

said Erhart, adding that he’d only had a few brief meetings with his new bosses before being offered the job Tuesday.

“The direction the team is going, and the enthusiasm and new direction from the owners is great. I’m really excited and thank-ful for the opportunity.”

Erhart admitted the appointment was somewhat bittersweet, however, considering he’s replacing a former colleague.

“Shane’s a great coach and a really classy � see page 28


guy, and you never like to see anybody lose their job,” he said. “I learned a lot (last season)... the BCHL is a lot different than major midget, so last year was a good experience.”

The Eagles were ousted in the first round of BC Hockey League playoffs last season, and in three seasons at the helm, Kuss failed to get the team past the second round.

Kuss is a former coach of the year in the junior B ranks with the Delta Ice Hawks, and is the BCHL’s all-time leading scorer.

He was hired in 2007 – replacing Rick Hillier – by former owner Ronnie Paterson, who still acts as the team’s governor. Paterson agreed with the decision to fire Kuss, Westgard said.

“Everybody agreed it was the right move. It was fine with everybody,” Westgard said.

“To get to where we want to go, we decided we needed to do this.

With new management, comes change.”

Erhart is the Eagles’ fourth head coach since the championship-winning 2004/05 campaign. That season began with Ryan Thorpe behind the bench, before he left midseason for the Western Hockey League and was replaced by Hillier at Christmas. Hillier lasted two seasons before Kuss came aboard in January of the 2006/07 season.

Helping Erhart in his rookie season as bench boss will be former NHL defenceman Gary Nylund, a Peninsula

resident who is part of the new ownership group. Nylund will serve as an assistant

coach with the team.Westgard didn’t

foresee any problem having a team owner working under a rookie head coach.

“No, I don’t see that being a problem... I think Matt and Gary will work really well together,” Westgard said.

In other coaching moves, Jim Babcock, who has served in a variety of roles with the team in recent years, was named an assistant coach, while former assistant Roger Ross was released.

On trackSome of the

Peninsula’s top high school track and field athletes will be aiming for the podium this weekend, at the 2010 B.C. Track and Field Championships.

The two-day event is at Burnaby’s Swangard Stadium, and athletes from South Surrey schools – Earl Marriott, Elgin Park, Semiahmoo and White Rock Christian Academy – are expected to fare well.

At Fraser Valley championships last month – the precursor to the provincials – Earl Marriott won more gold medals than any other team, led by Katie Reid – one of Canada’s top junior middle-distance runners – and Amy Vicic, who won two golds at Valleys, in high and triple jump.

For more information, visit the B.C. Secondary School Cross-Country and Track and Field Association website, www.bcsscctfa.bc.ca

Shutout winPlaying at the stadium

dubbed “the best little ballpark in the world,” the White Rock Tritons returned to the field Tuesday after a weekend of rest to shut out the Vancouver Cannons, 4-0 at Nat Bailey Stadium.

Pitcher Jeff Degano went the distance on the hill for White Rock, striking out seven, while allowing just three hits, in seven innings of work. His won-lost record is 2-2 for the season.

Offensively, the Tritons were led by speedy leadoff hitter Josh Sigurdson, who went 3-for-4 at the plate, with two runs scored. He also stole four bases.

Josh Larsen and Todd

Bird – a Blaine, Wash. native who joined the team midseason – each had an RBI to pace the

Peninsula crew to victory.

The win bumped the Tritons’ B.C. Premier Baseball

League record to 6-20.

Trying outSome of Canada’s top

lawn bowlers were on the greens at White Rock Lawn Bowling Club last month, as the Dolphin Street-based club hosted a tryout and selection camp for the Commonwealth Games, which are to be held in New Delhi, India in September.

The week-long camp saw both men and women competitors take part, including three B.C. bowlers.

The team was announced Wednesday. Hirendra Bhartu was named to the men’s team, while Josephine Lee made the cut on the women’s side. Tim Mason was chosen as a men’s team alternate.

Lawrie named player of yearFor the second consecutive season,

University of Washington pitcher Danielle Lawrie won USA Softball’s National Collegiate Player of the Year award.

The Langley native, and former White Rock Renegade, was announced as the winner Wednesday, beating out her Team Canada teammate Jennifer Yee, a North Delta native who attends Georgia Tech; and UCLA’s Megan Langenfeld for the honour.

Lawrie is only the second player to ever win the award twice. This season, the senior compiled a record of 40-3, and led the NCAA in strikeouts with 478, in just 288.1 innings of work. Lawrie was no slouch with the bat, either, leading the University of Washington Huskies with 15 home runs and 57 RBI.

“Obviously this is a prestigious award, so I am deeply honored,” said Lawrie in a release posted on the Huskies website. “I would not have won it if my team didn’t do what it has been doing all year... It’s tough for me to take the credit. This is a huge honour and I’m extremely thankful.”

The award is one of a handful won by the softball phenom this year. Lawrie has already earned first-team All-Pacific Region, first-team All-Pac-10 and was named the Pac-10 Pitcher of the Year for a second straight season.

She won the Pac-10 Pitcher-of-the-Week award a record eight times during the 2010 season and also won five different National Player of the Week honours.

If you haven’t taken a drive near 172nd Street and 2nd Avenue lately then you would be shocked to find that an entire community has sprung up. Now dozens of fami-lies are living at Summerfield with more moving in every month.

Drive down the meandering tree lined road along 172nd Street from 8th Avenue and you will discover Summerfield – a brand new community of single family character homes by Cressey Development Group. “We’ve tried to create a real sense of neighbourhood where you

actually know your neighbours and your children can all play on the street together. We also worked very hard to en-sure that it didn’t feel like a cookie cutter commu-nity and have implemented varying architec-ture, colours, roof lines and finishing

details to make every home unique. So far the feedback is that we’ve been successful” says David Evans, Develop-ment Manager of Summerfield for Cressey Development Group.

Summerfield started building and selling homes last spring with the release of their Heritage Homes and the biggest challenge has been keeping construction up to the pace of demand. 3-5 bedroom Heritage Homes range

from 2,000-2,550 square feet with detached garages and offer a variety of options and upgrades to ensure your home is perfect for you. For those that want a bit more space, Summerfield has just released their Classic Homes which offer up to 5 bedrooms, 2,975 – 3,500 square feet of living space and attached garage along with a long list of options and upgrades. That means buyers get the benefit of having quite a few options but all within this charming and quaint commu-nity.

“We’re very pleased with the positive feedback we have received from homeowners. People are really responding to the Craftsman architecture, the open concept layouts, interior

finishing options and the fact that we have gone the extra distance to make every home a Built Green Certified Silver minimum. This certification makes our homes far more energy efficient than older homes and more than many new homes.” Evans goes on to say.

Heritage Homes start at $540,900 and the Classic Homes start at $699,900. 4 Showhomes are open for viewing everyday from 12-5pm and closed Fridays at #109 – 172A Street in Surrey.

For more information you can also log onto the web-site at www.summerfieldhomes.ca or call 604-536-1155.

Go ahead, be choosy at Summerfield

Hogg, Kathleen BlairJuly 14, 1918 – May 29, 2010

It is with great sadness we announce the loss of our loving mother and grandmother, Kathleen Blair Hogg (nee King). Born on July 14, 1918 in Fairfax Manitoba she was raised on the extensive family farm which was awarded the distinction of being named the most beautiful farm in Manitoba.

She trained as a registered nurse in Portage La Prairie and then moved to Vancouver in the early 1940’s to nurse at Vancouver General Hospital. In 1942 she joined the Royal Canadian Air Force and was stationed at Pat Bay on Vancouver Island where she met the love of her life Dr RJ Allan Hogg. They were married on June 20, 1945 at Christ Church Cathedral in Vancouver and moved to White Rock the following year to join the community and raise their family. She was an active member of many community groups including being a founding member of the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary, the Rotary Anns, and the Daughters of the Nile.

After raising her family she enrolled at the British Columbia Institute of Technology where she upgraded her registered nursing degree and returned to nursing in her early 60’s.

Our mother was a gracious, funny, compassionate woman who was always present for her husband, children, and grandchildren. The memories are forever.

Predeceased by her loving husband in 2005 she will be sorely missed by her children Gordon (LaVerne), Joan (Bill), Linda, John (Tracy) and her seven grandchildren James, Blair, Robert (Tania), Katy, Ali, Allan, and Jackson.

A service will be held in her honour on Tuesday June 22, 2010 @ 3:00pm at First United Church 15385 Semiahmoo Avenue, White Rock BC.

In lieu of fl owers the family asks that donations be made to the Dr Al Hogg Family Doctor Legacy Fund at the Peace Arch Hospital and Community Health Foundation 15521 Russell Avenue, White Rock BC V4B 2R4 which raises funds to develop and train family doctors to serve the community of White Rock.

The family extends their sincere thanks to the wonderful residents and staff of the Dr Al Hogg Pavilion of Peace Arch Hospital who lovingly cared for our mother in her last years.

Betty Mensinger, (Drew)May 18, 1929 - May 17, 2010

We are sad to announce the passing of our dear mother, Betty Ewart Mensinger. Betty was a strong, beautiful liberat-ed woman who will be greatly missed by her family and many friends. She was a wom-an ahead of her time who al-ways believed in equality and equity. Betty graduated from the University of Saskatche-wan with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1950. She was born in Saskatchewan and lived in Ontario after she was married but has lived in the White Rock/S.Surrey area for many years.

HOBSONPeter Anthony PeeleSeptember 18, 1936

- May 27, 2010

On May 27, 2010 Peter An-thony Peele Hobson passed away peacefully at Peace Arch Hospital in White Rock. He is survived by his daughter Lesley, son Gary and grand-children Benjamin and Emiley. Peter leaves behind his best friend and soul mate Gloria and is fondly remembered by her children and grandchil-dren. His wit, humor and charm will be remembered by all who knew him. His retirement years were spent traveling, he especially enjoyed the Oregon coast. He received great joy being an ac-tive member of the men’s club at St. Mark’s Anglican Church. He left us too soon, but left a lifetime of memories. In lieu of fl owers a donation to the Heart and Stroke Founda-tion or a charity of your choice would be appreciated. A Me-morial Service will be held at St. Mark’s Anglican Church, 12953-20th Ave. in South Sur-rey on Saturday June 5 at 11 am followed by a reception in the church hall. His ashes will be scattered at a later date.
