❚ MINING

Claim could allow North American Stone to remove 10,000-ton bulk sample CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

The Ministry of Energy and Mines had an information session at Gallery 2 on July 5, after hearing about public concern over the possibility of two exploration projects. North American Stone has applied for two exploration mining permits, one near Lynch Creek and the other by Granby River. Residents who live near the site are worried about the damage that may occur to the surrounding environment, such as blockage of wildlife corridors and the impact on at-risk species, such as the redlisted clover and Peregrine falcons. The information session included maps of the sites, notice of work application, and environmental and reclamation plans. Al Ludwig, a mining consultant from the Ministry of Energy and Mines, pointed out that usually, the request for public in-

volvement comes into play after a mining application is approved. “The permit has not been approved yet and they indicated that they would be taking a much smaller sample to test the feasibility of it,” he said. “There are still several steps along the way.” Ludwig explained that the mineral claim would allow North American Stone to remove up to a 10,000-ton bulk sample every five years. “If the company goes beyond that, they have to apply for a mining lease and a mining lease will then give them the right to remove more than the bulk sample,” he added. “The development depends on the company and whether this bulk sample is their objective. If it does, they may go towards buying a lease and it becomes a quarry, rather than a mineral exploration quarry.” Prior to the information session, Ludwig hiked up the hill to determine the

situation and said that the site location is a several kilometres from the creek. “There are still some outstanding issues that have to be addressed and if the company present those and no other technical concerns come up, they may start sometime within the next month,” he said. Rick Mitchell, a surveyor from Discovery Consultants Ltd., who was the purveyor for North American Stone, stated that Discovery has worked before in Grand Forks for mining purposes. “This permit is about taking a bulk sample to evaluate the property. Discovery came out, prospected North American Stone’s area and we picked the two sites that had the least fractured stones,” Mitchell explained. “If the rock is heavily fractured, even if you drill it in it doesn’t stay intact. We picked the locations that had the least amount of fracturing based on what we surveyed.” Mitchell pointed out that the first step

is to get the permit and then next is to get the contractors to see what’s best for North American Stone and most cost effective. “We do have water management plans put into place,” he added. “The south site has silk canvases, we’ll be putting fences and ditches in, and there’s already existing culverts that we’re going to protect. I do not see any impact to the water because everything will be contained. There isn’t going to be much silt produced.” Silt is a granular material like sand that is produced during some mining processes. As well, Mitchell noted that the company would not be blasting any rocks in order to reduce the amount of stress fractures in the rock. “The company will be using Crack It gel, which is a calcium-like cement that is poured into drill holes and fractures the stone within a matter of hours,” he said.

Greenwood sergeant reported MIA overseas in 1942 1907 The 1,300-acre Erb-Davey ranch situated east of Grand Forks was sold to W.J. Brown of Toronto for about $60,000. 1912 City council entered into an agreement with West Kootenay Power for a supply of electrical energy to the city for a period of 10 years at a rate not to exceed one cent per kilowatt hour. 1917 The sawmill of the Western Pine Lumber Company, on Smelter Lake, was being shipped to Lynch Creek on the North Fork. The new plant was to operate under the name of the Grand Forks Lumber Company. 1922 William Powers, an old-timer of the Boundary district, died at Midway. He started the first sawmill in the Boundary at Midway and later operated several mills at several points including Grand Forks. 1927 Baseball enthusiasts were treated to a spectacular game at Columbia ballpark when Grand Forks upset the leagueleading Republic team by a score of 1211. 1932 West Kootenay Power was in the process of questioning the legality of Grand Forks establishing its own power plant. The city, armed with authoritative government documents, was claiming unnecessary interference by West Kootenay Power. 1937 Glen Weatherly, owner of the Boundary Grocery in Greenwood, was in hospital in serious condition after laying unconscious all night at the scene of the accident in which his car left the road on a return trip from Midway.

North American Stone could remove bulk sample

“It isn’t hazardous to the environment, since it is reduced to a dust that contains natural elements.” North American Stone Logistics Co-ordinator Rocky Sun noted that the company does have several sites in British Columbia. “We have applied for a permit to get some samples to see if it will be good for the market,” he explained. “It’s to see if the quality is good enough for the market before we apply for another permit for another duration.” The sample, if it meets the company’s standards, would be used for marble. “We will then send it back to China for polishing and processing for items such as countertops,” Sun said. “I don’t think there’s any secrets about the company. We just want to get a sample from the site to test whether it’s good or not.” Ludwig noted that North American Stone has requested a qualified biologist to assess the site for any species; however, he pointed out that both permits haven’t been approved. “There are still some outstanding issues that have to be addressed,” he said. “I would suggest that if anybody is concerned about the site that they hike up there and visit the site. The Lynch Creek site is a good location because it’s far enough away from anything, there are trees between them and there’s an access road already there. That’s considered a good location with good access compared to the other one because the other one there are some concerns.”

Christina Lake beach parties On July 7, at 2:40 p.m., police were doing foot patrol at the public beach at Christina Lake when they came across a 19-year-old Grand Forks male drinking beer on the beach while playing Frisbee – he was charged with consuming alcohol in a public place. Grand Forks RCMP’s Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison said there were a lot of children around at the time and several people applauded after the ticket was issued. Chris Cottrill, Christina Lake summer constable, is once again active and has been patrolling the waters of the lake. Over 37 warnings have been issued for such offences as not wearing a life jacket to not having the boaters’ competency card, Harrison said, pointing to an incident on July 7 at 8:14 p.m. “A male was seen operating a (3.65-metre) aluminum boat on Christina Lake heading towards the marina,” Harrison explained. “The driver of the boat was noted to be displaying signs of impairment and an alcohol sensing device (ASD) was presented and the demand was read to provide a sample.” Harrison said the 31-year-old male from Rossland blew a fail and was transported to the Grand Forks detachment. “The operator of the vessel blew (0.14) and (0.13) of alcohol in his blood; (0.08) is the legal limit,” he explained. He was released and will appear in Grand Forks court on Monday, Sept. 17 to be charged with impaired operation of a vessel and on top of that, Harrison said the male is also accused of not wearing a life jacket and failing to produce his operators’ competency card. Grand Forks theft Throughout Grand Forks in the last two to three weeks, there have been approximately 15 to 20 reports of early-morning thefts of bicycles, generators and items of that nature from people’s properties. Harrison said the thefts generally don’t involve break-ins and they are usually to items that are left outside. “Police do have a suspect in the matter and most of these occurrences are happening between 3 and 4 a.m. We currently suspect that a Chevy pickup, grey and blue, two-toned in colour, is possibly involved and we’re asking the public’s support. If they see suspicious persons or vehicles out in the early-mornings that appear to be scoping out other peoples’ property or houses, please give us a call immediately and we’ll attend,” he said. Harrison also recommended people put away or lock up items on their properties. Rock Creek female ejected from car A 33-year-old female from Rock Creek was involved in a rollover accident, where she was ejected from her car.

At 7:37 p.m. on July 2, a call came in from B.C. Ambulance regarding a single vehicle (2006 Pontiac G6) rollover approximately three kilometres west of Midway on Highway 3. “The vehicle was travelling west and appears to have drifted past the shoulder on the gravel and over-corrected in steering, causing a loss of control, striking the ditch and subsequently causing the vehicle to become airborne, coming to a rest on its roof,” explained Harrison. “The driver and sole occupant of the vehicle, a female from Rock Creek, was airlifted to Kelowna General Hospital after she had been ejected from the vehicle.” Harrison said collision analysts attended and are currently working on the investigation and Highway 3 was closed until about 11:30 p.m. that same night. Primary indications at the scene indicate that the victim was not wearing a seatbelt and may have been ejected through the sun roof or front windshield, although police aren’t certain yet. “Apparently, we had word from Kelowna General Hospital that she was in good condition, so the investigation is continuing,” Harrison went on to say. Police remind everyone to wear their seatbelts while travelling in a car. Houseboat damage on land At 9:05 a.m. on July 2, police received a report of damage done to a houseboat that was parked at a residence at Christina Lake. “The damage consisted of snapping the plastic on the steering wheel and nearby, a portable anchor light was located on the driveway, which was thrown from the vessel,” explained Harrison, who added that there were a group of teenagers seen in the area drinking and they may or may not have been responsible for the incident. Keying a car Later in the day (July 2), at 4:14 p.m., there was a report of vandalism to a vehicle parked in the alley behind Jogas Espresso Café. “A 2007 Ford Focus was keyed on the roof and that’s the second time that vehicle has been keyed in the same location, so obviously somebody knows who it is and somebody has an axe to grind,” Harrison explained. People with information on these or any other incidents are asked to call Grand Forks RCMP at 250-442-8288. Body in Okanagan Lake identified The body of a woman found floating in Okanagan Lake on June 19 has been identified. According to a news release, the BC Coroners Service has confirmed that the body was that of Melissa Joy Van Diemen, 34, originally from Grand Forks. Van Diemen was last seen swimming in the lake on June 13 and according to the release, the incident does not appear to be suspicious, although the coroner service and RCMP are continuing the investigation. Van Diemen had been living in Kelowna and her family has been notified.

City looking to move ahead with branding CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

The City of Grand Forks’ economic development advisory committee is working to complete a request for proposals (RFP) for city branding that will be available for council’s approval in August. Coun. Bob Kendel noted that the development committee would be seeking advice from the public about city branding if the proposal is

approved. “Once it’s approved it will be ready to go out for tenders for the end of September,” he said. Kendell pointed out that the committee hopes to have all applications and recommendations in by winter. From there, they hope to sort through and implement any plans by spring next year. The branding proposal is part of the committee’s efforts to boost Grand Forks identity within the Boundary area and the province.

❚ Our View

Summer not a time to relax safety People are often asked to drive more carefully during the winter months because of the more treacherous road conditions but road safety is something that should be observed year-round. Ask a person on the street and they will probably agree but are they paying lip service? Wearing a seatbelt while in a vehicle should be instinctual and yet, there was an incident recently on Highway 3 near Midway where a driver was ejected from a vehicle and RCMP say that there are indications that the driver wasn’t wearing a seatbelt. Drinking and driving (in any sort of vehicle, land or in the water) do not mix and you don’t need Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) to tell you this. While there was a report last November suggesting that the number of drinking and driving deaths in the province dropped by 40 per cent, a report on Monday night’s news, citing numbers from weekend roadblocks, said that 68 people in Vancouver were given immediate roadside suspensions. Closer to home, the influx of summer Christina Lake dwellers is on and with that comes the Christina Lake summer officer to patrol the beaches and waters. According to local RCMP, there was an incident where a boater on the lake was charged with impaired operation of a vessel, which police say is akin to impaired operation of a motor vehicle. Breathalyzer readings for the person charged reportedly were in the 0.13 and 0.14 range with the legal limit being 0.08. RCMP say a number of warnings have also been issued for people that have not been wearing lifejackets, which is similar to seatbelts, as they can mean the difference between life and death for people on boats. Being sensible doesn’t only pertain to motor vehicles but must also extend to boats and vessels as well. Wear a life-jacket while on a boat and wear a seatbelt while driving and never consume alcohol when operating a vehicle of any kind. Summer may be a time for many to take holidays and relax in the sunshine and on the beach and have some fun but the enjoyment can be quickly dashed due to carelessness and nobody wants that.

It’s vital not to idle but mind pets It doesn’t seem like a lot of time passes when you leave your car to enter a store quickly or to pick up your mail, but keeping your vehicle idling isn’t the best of decisions. Idling vehicles add to the crazy heat of summer (I’m sure we’ve all walked past the back end of a running vehicle between late-June and lateSeptember). There are times when kids are left in the vehicle because all someone wanted to do was run in and run out of a store, but what has me more concerned than an idling vehicle in that situation, is when a pet or child is left inside for long periods or forgotten entirely. Because let’s face it, it happens. Bringing pets along on a trip may seem like a good idea at first, but with the weather at a warm blaze and bound to get even hotter, make due consid-

eration into what your trip of errands entails. There are always multiple reports in the news about dogs being left behind in cars during a summer heat wave, by accident or otherwise. Sometimes the owners forget they’ve brought their pets along with them and it’s easy enough to get distracted by bumping into people on the streets to say hello. Canada’s Humane Society noted that it could take only minutes for a pet locked in a car to die during a heat wave. And while utterly startling, it’s believable.

In Toronto, during the continually rising temperatures and wretched humidity, there have been 152 animal complaint calls so far stated Toronto RCMP, with police having to attend 61 of the calls. Even with the best of intentions of leaving the car on with some air conditioning blasting for your pet, you then face the possibility of idling for far too long. A crack in the window barely helps in an insulated vehicle that keeps the temperature at a blistering temperature. It’s kind of like trying to sleep in a closed room with no air circulation – eventually you’re breathing as if you have asthma and you’re trying to clean up a dusty attic. Take care to remember if you did bring along a pet and carry lots of water to battle dehydration.

LETTERS ❚ PROVIDENCE DAM

In favour of keeping Marshall Lake Editor: I am appalled that the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations is attempting to, in my opinion, blackmail local residents into taking over responsibility for maintaining and upgrading Marshall Lake by threatening to remove the dam and destroy this beautiful recreational resource. Residents don’t have the resources the provincial government does and can’t be expected to cover those kind of expenses. That is why we have provincial governments: to cover costs that are provincial in scope. Our recreational and tourist resources are amongst those. Your ministry has informed the people of the Boundary that if they do not cover the costs of upgrading and maintaining the dam, it will decommission the dam and destroy the lake. That is NOT acceptable to me or any others in our area. It has also set an arbitrary date that it will begin this work, as it says it needs to do it in its “work window.” The ministry could wait until the next work window, the one after that, or never destroy this beautiful lake. I am informed by those working on bringing awareness to this issue that our MLA John Slater has helped us by getting a couple of delays and extensions. I am glad to hear that he has tried but I also hear that the ministry has just told us that if we don’t take over, then they will carry out their threat soon. As a province and a country we are spending money to invest in tourism to provide destination tourist resources, trails, parks etc. We already have a beautiful one here, why would you consider destroying it? Marshall Lake is beautiful and has been attracting tourist and locals for many years without any concern until the incident in Oliver. It is not the same scenario and is not likely to ever be a problem for local people. There is no rush to destroy this lake. We need to tell the ministry to do what is right and carry out the recommendations in its own report and maintain this resource for us. John Greaves, Midway *** Editor: Marshall Lake is a lake under siege. The province intends to decommission the dam on

the lake and destroy much of its value as a popular recreation site. The “Marshall Lake Stewardship Group” (on Facebook) has 579 members, our online petition has 380 signatures, and we have a paper petition circulating. I went to Marshall Lake this morning. The sun was shining and the lake shone. Birds danced upon the air, calling out their cries and songs. Thousands of bright blue dragonflies hovered. The reeds swayed in the breeze. Ripples erupted to mark the comings and goings of the fish below. Nothing human intruded upon my time there; the moment was ours alone, the lake and I. And I thought, “What madness!” Have we really reached a point in our society where something like this – this pristine gem of a lake – is going to be destroyed, merely because of costs, and “what ifs?” Where the value of a much-loved piece of nature becomes secondary to a line item on a provincial budget? I certainly hope not. That is not the society I was born into, not the province I have lived in for all my life. This is not my British Columbia – and I will not stand by while the things I value are destroyed. Area D Director Irene Perepolkin’s column last week was disappointing. No one is asking the RDKB or any other local government to take on the cost, as she states. We are simply asking them to represent us, and support our efforts to pressure the government to preserve the lake. The dam risk is not “high risk” as was stated, the risk was downgraded in 2011. Having served for three years on Greenwood Council, I disagree strongly with the contention that “no one is being pressured to take on the project.” Greenwood most certainly is. Perepolkin omits the one option that we are working to achieve: Option 1 - that the province retains the dam. Local governments should be advocating for the Boundary on this issue. It’s the least they can do. Christopher Stevenson, Greenwood

Cards on table for Granby granite

❚ COLUMN at Thursday’s (July 5) meeting, for $4/hectare, you can apply for a mining tenure. The blocks up the Granby are $25/ hectare each, which means that for $100 each, North American Stone Inc., a Chinese company registered in B.C., can now export tons of sampling product overseas to see if it is what the “global market” wants. Never mind the beauty, never mind the tranquility, never mind the already existing industry of tourism, never mind the people that live there and the animals that travel through. With the initial help of a jackhammer and then a pneumatic drill, big slabs of rock will begin their journey overseas. This all, of course, will only take place during daytime working hours, we are assured, initially anyways, until the hunger grows and with minimal benefit to the community and huge negative impact. Where are the city councillors and the RDKB Area D director? Angelica Herlihy, Grand Forks

The farce that is B.C. Ferries Editor: The British Columbia Ferries’ executive board confirmed this week that former CEO David Hahn’s pension payments total $43,000 per month for the next five years – that’s per month. Many people in British Columbia would be happy to earn $43,000 a year. Mr. Hahn’s salary while CEO of the failing ferry corporation was $1.13 million, with an additional $1.7 million in bonuses. Not bad for the head of a company that lost $16.5 million in his final year and sunk to the lowest ridership in 21 years. All of Mr. Hahn’s earnings were from taxpayer money. The Liberals seem very liberal at spending our money. The fault lies not with Mr. Hahn, who took the people of British Columbia for all he could, but with Ms. Clark, the premier who allowed this travesty to take place. This situation is obscene at best and criminal at worst. David Janzen, Grand Forks

A month in the life of an RDKB area director ❚ In the Spotlight

GRACE McGREGOR

What do you do? Are you busy? Can we schedule a conference call? These days the good old calendar goes everywhere with us, sometimes in the form of the old fashioned Day-Timer but more and more in the form of iPhone, Blackberry, iPad, or

in my case a Windows Phone. We no longer answer or send letters by snail mail. Answers are now expected within minutes, hours or in the very least days. No wait time. Let’s talk. While it does have advantages, it also has disadvantages. There really is never any down time unless you create it and decide to check out. May was a pretty typical month for me. It went as follows: May 1 – I fly to Vancouver for the RCMP committee meeting; back the same day. May 2 – I meet Graham Watt to talk about the Kettle River steering committee. That night I attend an environmental services meeting and I am fortunate because it is in Grand Forks. May 3 – Wow, our twin granddaughters are 19. At 7 a.m. the Grand Forks Rotary Club, then I meet with the Christina Lake Stewardship in the morning and the Kettle River stakeholders meeting in the evening. May 4 – I try to get groceries; apparently the cupboard is bare. I grab a little time on Saturday and Sunday for family and gardening while answering email and phone calls. The morning of May 7 I travel to Trail to meet with the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary CAO and the chair of the board and back for a meeting at my house with the some of the Boundary folks. The morning of May 8 sees a conference call for the Rural BC Project and an APC (advisory planning committee) meeting that night. May 9 is a policy executive and personnel meeting, which I chair then an hour to get to Trail for a protective services meeting. May 10 – Normally Rotary at 7 a.m. but today finds us in Kelowna for an eye appointment and Mother’s Day with my 92-year-old mother. May 14 – I am off to Vancouver for a Rural BC think tank meeting on how funding groups could work together to maximize dollars for Rural BC granting to help economic development in rural areas. Back the next day. May 16 finds me at a park and rec meeting at 8 a.m. and a Christina Lake school public meeting that evening. May 18 is the rotary meeting at 7 a.m., then we get to have dinner with some special friends to celebrate their anniversary – this is relaxing. In between, I answer emails, some of which are very important, or try to schedule another conference call for SIBAC (Southern Interior Beetle Action Coalition) and two others waiting in the wings. As I look at the calendar now I am hoping I might get a couple days to catch up with some folks I would like to meet with and spend a couple hours in my garden. Victoria Day finds me having a meeting at my house at 1:30 p.m. The next day (May 22) I stop down and have tea with the quilters. May 23 is an early morning conference call and a hospital meeting in the evening. We try to take off camping for a couple days and I drive back for May 26, Lake Clean Up Day, then again for the RDKB board meeting on May 29. June will be much the same but a little busier and July is looking even more hectic. Do I have to be this involved? It is my belief that to fairly represent Christina Lake, I need to keep informed – have those who make provincial and federal decisions know who I am – and attend committee meetings that may be instrumental in the work I do for Christina Lake. I answer my phone 24/7. I happen to think that is a big part of my job. Do I still like being the director for Christina Lake? Yes I do. I am, however, fortunate to have a husband who helps out at home and two dogs who still love me. Have a good summer everyone. – Grace McGregor is Area C director for the RDKB

Federal ridings may change, warns Atamanenko CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

B.C. Southern Interior MP Alex Atamanenko is concerned about the federal government’s proposal on riding reconfigurations. The proposal would put Nelson in with the Kootenay-Columbia riding, and split Keremeos into two. “The west of Keremeos would go into the Okanagan-Coquihalla riding and we would gain Penticton,” noted Atamanenko of the initial proposal of the Federal Electoral Commission. “What they’ve done is a numbers game on the surface but there is many other factors to take into consideration.” Atamanenko pointed out that the possible changes also have to do with the drop in population in the Kootenay-Columbia riding. “One of the criteria the commission uses is Communities of Interest,” he said. “We have Nelson, Trail and Castlegar, which is sort of our tri-cities here that work together on a number of projects.” The MP also noted the Chamber of Commerce works together as well and it doesn’t make sense to separate the three cities. Another point Atamanenko raised is the ability for residents to have access to an MP. “If that MP weren’t living in Nelson, residents would have to go to Cranbrook, or Golden or Revelstoke, which is another criteria – the accessibility of a member of parliament which has to be taken to consideration,” he said. “They tried something similar to this before the 2004 election and tried to move the City of Penticton in and move some of the Slocan Valley but what they heard was that it wasn’t a viable thing. So there is a historical precedent over this because people do want to keep the status quo, which is workable. I’m able to work with people in my office and the riding now and any changes to

that would be detrimental.” Atamanenko added that residents have up Tuesday, Oct. 30 to register to take part in the hearings that will be taking place and are also invited to submit written submissions. “I’m hoping to talk to people to get their input such as mayors and other people in the community who think this isn’t the best way to go,” he concluded. The proposed measure, Bill C-20, by the federal Conservative government, would expand the House of Commons to 338 seats, with 15 new seats for Ontario, six new seats each for Alberta and British Columbia, and three for Quebec.

Silver Kettle Village construction ahead of schedule CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Development is well underway for Silver Kettle Village located on 72nd Avenue and 25th Street. Landon Elliott, marketing director for Golden Life Management, noted that construction is ahead of schedule but the plans to open in September remain. “Everything is going great,” he said. “Rooms are all booked but as time goes on, we get some and lose some.” Elliott encourages residents to still apply and to have their names put on a waiting list. “It’s safer to have your name on a waiting list than deciding later on that you’d like to live in,” he said. Silver Kettle Village will have 48 independent living suites, 40 care suites and two private pay residential care suites. “Forty rooms will be fully funded, which means the people who are going to stay there will pay the exact same amount as they do in Hardy View, as they do right now, with no additional fees,” Elliott explained. “Everyone who lives in the independent side is a room rental, while the private pay rooms have a set fee.” On the other hand, Elliott noted that families who have someone out of province and would like to move them into British Columbia could use the private rooms on the interim. “The province takes about three months to get them onto the health plan,” he said. “It’s also good for respite, for example, if I’m taking care of mom but I’m going for a holiday in Mexico for a week, mom can stay in the building and she doesn’t have to worry about anything.” Construction of the building has been contracted to various companies located within British Columbia. “Every single one of our companies is a British Columbia company coming from the Grand Forks areas or East or West Kootenay, or all the way from Kelowna,” said Elliott. “The only reason we would not use a local company is if they were overpriced. When you think about the people out of town, they are paying for lodging and everything else and they’re still coming in cheaper.”

Construction of Silver Kettle Village, located on 72nd Avenue and 25th Street, is ahead of schedule. CASSANDRA CHIN PHOTO

Though some local companies did not make the list, Elliott noted that many did. “We always listen to everyone, especially to local companies, because we do want to support the local companies,” he added. “What ends up happening is that they think they have to bid without being competitive and we can’t do that otherwise we’d never be able to build something this nice for seniors.” Transportation via shuttle buses will also be available two to three times a week for residents who have appointments or want to go grocery shopping. Interior Health has previously partnered with Golden Life Management in the past in building residential care villages in Trail, Castlegar, Nelson, Fruitvale, Creston, Kimberley, Cranbrook, Invermere and Fernie. Golden Life Management will be hosting an informational tea at the Senior Citizen’s Hall at City Park today (July 11) from 2:30 to 4 p.m.

Mere words cannot express the gamut of emotions I have felt as I have spent my last year as secretary at John A. Hutton Elementary School. I have been overwhelmed by the loving wishes that I have received, my birthday party, my “very much a surprise” retirement party at school, the District’s retirement evening and then a bench from our PAC that will remain at school in recognition of my years of service! Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to the purchase of my beautiful new car and arranged my party. I can’t believe that all the children were able to keep it a secret!! My car was deﬁnitely the most wonderful present I could ever imagine. The many other gifts, cards and loving wishes for a wonderful retirement overﬁlled my heart. It has been such a privilege to have worked at John A. Hutton Elementary for 32 years. There have been so many students, parents, teachers, support staff and principals through the years whom I have enjoyed working with and getting to know. Thank you for letting me be a part of your lives.

Members from the province, local ATV club and trails society met on June 19 at the Station Pub to discuss issues related to the Trans Canada Trail.

KARL YU PHOTO

KARL YU Gazette Editor

Because of conflicting information about trail use, and other issues, the Grand Forks ATV Club recently called a meeting in town with a number of stakeholders. Ray Johnson, a member of the ATV club, said a lot of items were addressed and according to the meeting agenda, trail maintenance, liability insurance, licensing of Off Road Vehicles (ORVs) and irresponsible ATV use were amongst some topics discussed. It was noted that some careless ATVers and dirt bikers had a habit of speeding, defacing trails and the ground surface in general. “In my opinion, the meeting went relatively well,” Johnson said. “We did resolve many issues regarding riding areas and maintenance, plus a lot of conversation on trails in general but some of it, of course, was regarding the Trans Canada Trail (TCT), which wasn’t the entire issue. Some members of the GFATV Club have been doing volunteer maintenance on the TCT and will continue to do so.” Doug Zorn, VP of the local ATV club said that it was possible for everyone to co-exist. “I think it is possible. The Grand Forks ATV Club has been going to meetings of the rail to trails society and working with them to try and overcome the ‘them and us’ sort of idea,” he said. “I think from that meeting it’s very plain that the government is looking for community solutions to come from the community.” It’s not a matter of you and us or non-motorized and motorized,” Johnson said, “It’s a matter of multi-use recreational trails for the enjoyment and safety of all users.” Chris Moslin, president of the Grand Forks Community Trails Society, also thought it was possible for co-existence but the reckless riders had to go. “They have and they have to (co-exist), there’s not a lot of

choice about it but what has to go is the (bad apples), the ones who break things, who are unsafe motorists,” Moslin said. “The key to it all – and the province doesn’t have to spend another dime on the whole thing as long as they pass clarity about who can ride an ATV. There should be no unlicensed use without adult supervision.” Moslin said that proper licensing and vehicle identification would solve a lot of problems. John Hawkings, provincial trails manager for the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, was also in attendance and got a sense that people were willing to work together. “A number of people (at the meeting) I’ve known for some time and when it comes down to it, there’s often some emotion involved but generally speaking, absolutely, I think that these people want to work together, they all have the best of intentions,” Hawkings said. “Nobody really wants to maliciously impact another person’s recreation experience but people want to get outside and want to have a good time and that’s what we want them to do as well. I know that they do want to work together, they will work together and, in many cases in the province, they have worked together.” Coun. Bob Kendel said that there was no choice and everyone had to co-operate. “Either we work it out or it’s the Hatfields and McCoys. That’s the only solution; you have to come up with a compromise that works for everyone,” Kendel said. Hawkings said that the ministry is committed to working with local government and user groups to try and resolve the long-standing conflict but it couldn’t commit fully at the moment. “Our efforts are limited because our resources are limited,” Hawkings explained. “We’re focusing on an area near Penticton but we certainly hope to have the time and the resources in the very near future to more directly address the issues around the Kootenay Boundary area.”

COMMUNITY ❚ HISTORY

Historian Bill Barlee turned others on to past GREG NESTEROFF Black Press

Nobody could tell a story about B.C.’s bygone days better than Bill Barlee. Probably the province’s best-known popular historian, he imparted the magic of the past into everything he said or wrote. Barlee, who died June 14 in Victoria at age 80, was an author, TV host, newspaper publisher, politician, mine owner, teacher, collector, museum curator and an inspiration to other history buffs, including me. His books went through numerous printings and his TV show Gold Trails and Ghost Towns – wherein he regaled viewers with stories of the old west, illustrated with artifacts from his massive collection – ran for 10 years and still shows up in reruns. Born in Grand Forks and raised in Rossland, Barlee’s fascination with earlier times began during boyhood visits to the Boundary boomtown of Cascade City, where his grandfather ran a store for almost 50 years, and ultimately bought most of the other buildings. “A lot were abandoned,” Barlee told me in 2000, “and I found it absolutely intriguing to walk through them and look at the merchandise that had been left behind. “Ten-gallon hats, pitcher and basin sets, rolltop desks – it was all covered in dust and cobwebs, and I thought God, that’s interesting. You walk up the main street and all you hear is the echo of your footsteps on the boardwalk.” He taught high school in Trail and Penticton, and then in 1969 left his secure job to launch a quarterly magazine, Canada West. It started with seven subscribers, but through word-ofmouth, grew to over 4,000. Readers appreciated his love of history, romantic prose, and charming style. He wrote most of the stories, did his own typesetting, and carried only a few classified ads. (He also refused U.S. subscriptions, claiming Americans were looting Canadian heritage sites.) Barlee sold the magazine after seven years, only to buy it back, but it soon folded. Back issues are highly collectible. His greatest ambition was to save Sandon, mining capital of the Silvery Slocan, whose ghostly atmosphere cast an unbreakable spell on him. In 1970, readers told him the old Virginia Block was being demolished, so he went to check it out. “I had to make a decision,” he wrote. “I could drive out of there and never go back, and it wouldn’t cost me a penny. Or I could stop the destruction and bring the old town back to something like it was before. I decided that I had to try to save it.” Barlee bought the building and formed a company to turn Sandon into a living ghost town. But lack of investors, plus heavy snow that collapsed the Virginia’s roof, derailed his plans. Years later, as B.C.’s tourism minister, he earmarked money to construct replica buildings, but this time a narrow election loss kiboshed things. (Three half-completed shells remain standing.) He was still selling Sandon’s restoration as an economic saviour for the region when he ran for federal office in 2000 but by then was ridiculed for it, and finished a distant second.

Good Luck! Athletes, Coaches, and Ofﬁcials from the Kootenays (Zone 1) will be at the Surrey 2012 BC Summer Games July 19-22 Follow the results at www.bcgames.org

During that campaign, I had the pleasure of seeing him tell treasure stories to a small group in Castlegar, and even got to carry his strongbox of artifacts. He was spellbinding. Detractors, though, muttered privately that he stole things, or fleeced them from naive owners. He would have been deeply hurt by such accusations, for he prided himself on high ethical standards. Some of his stories should, however, be taken with plenty of salt. While Barlee was a straight-shooter, the old-timers who provided him with material weren’t always above exaggerating. You will search in vain for footnotes or bibliographies in his books, but few have ever written so evocatively about the old west. (One pale imitator shamelessly plagiarized Barlee’s entire book on Washington ghost towns.) Failing health ended Barlee’s public engagements in recent years and also prevented him from completing his final book. Regrettably, we didn’t get an autobiography out of him either. He was interested in just about every corner of Western Canada and the Pacific Northwest, but pressed to name his favourite region, replied: “British Columbia has such a fascinating history. You can look at the Boundary, the Similkameen, the Cariboo. The whole province is really quite riveting. But if I had to be restricted, if they said you only have one choice, I would say West Kootenay.” I’m forever grateful I got to meet him. He casts a long shadow over those of us similarly preoccupied with this province’s past.

Wong takes tourney at the Lake CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Christine Wong of Richmond, B.C., won the BC Golf Women’s Amateur Championships held last week at the Christina Lake Golf Club. Competing against 68 women from across the province, Wong was able to take the lead early in the championship. Kyla Inaba of Kelowna took the mid-amateur championship and placed fifth in the amateur championship. Carol Brown, tournament chair for Women’s Amateur B.C. Golf, noted that though Tuesday was quite wet, the last three days were good. “We had to suspend the tournament two or three times but everybody hung in there and teed off again at 4 o’clock and finished the round,” she said. “We finished off the week with beautiful weather.” Brown stated that the next tournament is the Nationals at the end of July. “We have a great champion and Christine Wong will represent us very well,” she added. Executive Director of B.C. Golf Kris Jonasson agreed. “The quality of the play was outstanding and we have some excellent women players in British Columbia,” he said. “I would encourage all golfers to come and see if they can break Christine Wong’s score.” The original women’s record at the Christina Lake Golf Club was 68 but was broken twice in one day. The first time another participant managed a 67 par, before

Wong scored at 65 to hold the new record. Winner Christine Wong thanked her family and fellow competitors. “Thank you for everything this week,” she said. “To the golf course volunteers and the (Christina Lake Golf Club) general manager, Kevin Maffioli, the course is in great shape and I think the greens were in top condition after the rain.” Maffioli said, “Having all these talented golfers from around British Columbia is exciting for the area and it’s exciting to have their families here in the Boundary area. The golf was great and the organization went well.” This is the first time the golf club has hosted the women’s amateur and mid-amateur tournament, but it won’t be the last. Christina Lake Golf Club has also hosted five other BC Golf League events, including the Men’s Amateur in 2002, BC’s Junior in 2004, B.C. Senior Ladies in 2005 and Juvenile in 2007. “It’s hard to quantify that in terms of the exposure you get in terms of knowing that all the golfers in B.C. are focusing here this week. The exposure for Christina Lake, Grand Forks and the area is really good because we’ve had a lot of people who haven’t come here before and are enjoying it, so it’s exceptional,” concluded Maffioli. “It’s pretty exciting and I’m hoping to invite them over for another one in the next couple of years.” Soo-Bin Kim and Megan Osland will join Wong at the Royale Cup Canadian Women’s Amateur Championship in Lethbridge, Alta. from July 24 to 27.

❚ HOCKEY

New deadline for hockey registration GFMHA BOARD Submitted

At its annual general meeting (AGM), in April, the Grand Forks Minor Hockey Association (GFMHA) board requested input from members on the merits of pursuing a “House First” policy for GFMHA. House First is a policy that some associations have adopted where they commit to first having a house (non-contact) team in the division, i.e. Bantam, before attempting to put together a rep (contact) team. The AGM was very well attended and we had an informative and interactive discussion. Good reasons for pursuing both house and rep were presented and discussed and what we clearly heard,

from the members, was that the decision to go house or rep must be considered each year for each level independently. The majority of the membership expressing opinions at the meeting did not believe that adopting a blanket House First policy would be in the best interest of our association. Since the AGM, the board has been working on developing and documenting guiding principles and a process that will help with making a team in category decisions as straightforward and transparent as possible. An important part of the decisionmaking process is to confirm our registration numbers as early as possible. As a result, changes are being made to our registration process, effective for the 2012-2013 season to support this.

For the last few seasons, we have offered a discount to players registered by Sept 15. This discount date is being changed to this Monday, Aug. 20. There will be no change in the registration fees for the upcoming season. Instructions for registering for the upcoming season can now be found in the “Registration Packages” folder on the Downloads page on the website (www.grandforksmha.ca). Please note, registration will be done online this year. Thank you to everyone who participated in the AGM. We wish everyone a safe and enjoyable summer. Please feel free to contact any board member. Email can be sent via the website if you require additional information.

❚ REC REPORT This week’s rec report is available online at www.grandforksgazette.ca in the sports section. If you would like more information about summer recreational activities, contact Grand Forks Recreation (GFREC) at 250-442-2202 or email gfplay@rdkb.com.

Notice of Passing

2012. Sadly missed by his brother - Henry and Ethel Austin and family.

“Don’t grieve for me for now I’m free, I’m following the path God led for me. I took His hand when I heard Him call, I turned my back and left it all.” Graham Funeral Home had care of arrangements.

Notice of Passing MELISSA JOY VAN DIEMEN Melissa Joy Van Diemen was born at Grand Forks on February 7, 1978, to Barbara and Henry Van Diemen. There to welcome her home was her proud brother, Cody. Melissa grew up at Grand Forks and attended school here. She loved softball and played for several years. After leaving Grand Forks, she went to Vernon College where she took Hotel/Motel management. After completing two years, she went to Banff, Alberta, where she worked for several years. She next moved to Saskatchewan where she lived for several years. She opened up her own business selling gift baskets and they were very popular. She was missing B.C., so she moved back to the Okanagan where she spent several years working in restaurants. She tried her hand at welding and her work can be seen in some of the storefronts of Osoyoos. Melissa was a loving, compassionate young lady. She was always there to help someone through a tough time. Melissa loved her two little nieces Abby and Jade. She could be quiet and compassionate and fun and mischievous. She will be greatly missed. She leaves behind her father, Henry; mother, Barbara; brother, Cody; step-brother, Tanner; nieces, Abby and Jade; grandmother, Mary; aunties, uncles, cousins; and more friends than she thought she had. May she rest in peace. A service was held on June 27, 2012. Grand Forks Funeral Home had care of arrangements. The Cathcart and Van Diemen families give their heartfelt thanks to the overwhelming show of support at the time of her passing; the food, ﬂowers and the time just spent keeping company.

Prevention • Do not touch live or dead bats. • Make your home or cabin “bat proof.” • Keep doors and windows closed, make sure window screens don’t have any holes and keep the attic area free of bats by keeping all vents properly screened and by closing off other openings.

• If you find a live bat in a room of your home, open the window and close interior doors until the bat leaves. • Seek professional bat-control advice (from a pest control or wildlife specialist) if your work place or home is inhabited by bats. • Avoid locations or activities where bats are likely to be found (e.g. caves). • If you have a pet dog, cat or ferret, make sure they are vaccinated regularly against rabies. Pets that were born and raised in B.C. pose a very low risk of transmitting rabies to humans, however, vaccinating your pets will protect them from rabies. If you have been bitten or scratched • Thoroughly wash the wounds with soap and water. • Contact your local Public Health Unit or family doctor immediately. • Call a wildlife or pest control company to capture the bat. If trying to capture the bat yourself, avoid contact by wearing leather gloves, a hat, long sleeves and pants. • Safely contain the bat in a secure covered container to prevent others from being exposed. Keep the bat in a safe location until Public Health can arrange to pick it up and test it for rabies. When traveling abroad • Be aware of the risk of rabies in the country you are visiting. • If you were bitten by an animal and started on the rabies vaccine, keep all documentation you were provided. It will need to be reviewed by Public Health when you return home. • Note the type of clinic or hospital you visited. This information will be used by Public Health to determine if you received the same standard of protection that you would have received at home. For more, visit interiorhealth.ca.

Notice of Passing NORA SIMINOFF Nora was born to parents Alex and Polly Holoboff (Kabatoff) on December 1, 1921, at Verigin, Saskatchewan. When Nora was a young child, her parents and grandparents moved to Los Angeles, CA. The families found employment with the Goodyear Company, however, they returned to Saskatchewan a few years later where her brothers Peter and Lawrence were born. When Nora was a teenager, her family moved to Grand Forks, where brother Walter was born. They joined family members already homesteading the entire area of the current Tastee Treet. Nora’s passions were needlework and gardening. Even as a teenager, she preferred to work on her embroidery at home, rather than partying with friends. Nora married Peter Siminoff on January 20, 1945. They bought a 20-acre farm in the Carson Road area, and worked hard to work to develop the land together. They were honoured to later have their road named after them. In the early years, they grew onions and flowers for seeds, later going into the egg production business, providing eggs to many local stores and restaurants. They improved and upgraded their small log house and yard over the years. When Nora wasn’t busy with her needlework, she could always be found outdoors tending her vegetable garden and beautiful flowers. Nora and Peter had two daughters, Irene (Perepolkin) and Diane (Klein). Nora was predeceased by her father, mother, husband Peter and brother Peter. She is survived by her two brothers, Lawrence and Walter; her first daughter Irene, and her children: Lynda (John), Tracy (Steve), Clifford (Tammy) and Nancy. Nora is also survived by her daughter Diane, and her children: Scott (Leanne), Amy (Dave) and Ryan (Tanis); seven grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren. A funeral service will be held at the Grand Forks Funeral Home on Friday, July 13, at 11 a.m., followed by internment at Evergreen Cemetery. Funeral arrangements entrusted to Everett Baker of Grand Forks Funeral Home.

Broadacres Care Facility open for applications CASSANDRA CHIN Gazette Reporter

Broadacres Care Facility is now accepting applications for residents seeking assisted living accommodations. Rod Gustafson, proprietor of Broadacres and a retired registered nurse, noted that the facility plans on opening on Wednesday, Aug. 1. Gustafson applied to become an assisted living residence through the Registrar of Assisted Living in Victoria, B.C. at the end of May. The application process also included a phone interview. “Everything is done and finalized,” he said. “I’m just getting my clients and staff ready.” There are 14 beds available at Broadacres, which will now be similar to Boundary Lodge. “It’ll be a nice home atmosphere with 24-hour staff with a nice rural setting and home cooked meals,” Gustafson said. With the additional independent beds through Golden Life Management at Silver Kettle Village, Gustafson previously noted that everything is rounded up nicely since senior residents will now have access to multiple levels of care in Grand Forks. In April 2011, Gustafson received a letter from Interior Health (IH) stating that it would not fund beds at his Broadacres despite a request for proposals for 40 residential senior care beds that it made in December 2010 – Golden Life Management was awarded the contract.

Gustafson said he was not happy with the decision seeing as he made a significant investment in the Carson Road care facility, including renovations and the installation of geothermal heating. Located on Carson Road south of the city, Broadacres was built in the 1960s and originally operated as a major dairy farm in the valley. For more information, visit www.broadacresbc.com.

The family of William J. Chernoff would like to express their heartfelt thanks to the staff at Christina Lake Manor in Hardy View Lodge

Notice of Passing BILL NOVAK October 27, 1927 to June 24, 2012 Bill was born on October 27, 1927, at Grand Forks, B.C. He was born to William and Tina Novakshonoff and was the youngest of their six children. He was the only boy. Bill never had a formal ‘education. He was self-taught and often said his greatest education came from the School of Hard Knocks’. He became an avid reader and his own Master of History. Bill developed his wander lust early in life. At the age of 14, he and a buddy paid a buck to hitch a ride to get jobs in the Okanagan. The year was 1942 and the attraction was 25 cents an hour for working in the orchards or planting gardens. Encouraged by his family to return to Grand Forks, Bill teamed up with his dad working in the bush making telephone poles and fence posts. Bill worked as part of this team for two years, swinging an axe as he put it, when the wander lust hit him again. With his cardboard Rodeo Suitcase in hand, he headed back to Kelowna and got a job at the El Dorado Ranch. Bill heard about the big ranches of Alberta and landed a job riding at the MacIntyre Ranch. He was 16 years old and described a riding job as sitting on the back of a horse yelling “Hey Cow!” In actuality, this was a job moving large herds of cattle from one section (640 acres) of land to another. The ranch was 20 miles wide by 30 miles long. Bill found his way back to Grand Forks. From there he took on a few different occupations. He worked in the bush, drove logging truck, but is well remembered for driving transport truck for Sandner Brothers out of Christina Lake. On June 9, 1962, he married the love of his life, Marie Reibin. They made Grand Forks their home and spent many years working together in their garden and raising their two children. Bill was always a devoted family man and loved getting together with family and friends where his talents as a story teller and singer would captivate everyone around him. Bill had an aptitude for fabricating equipment and with the help of George Markin Jr., he built a water-well digging rig. Bill headed for Langley, B.C., where he established a very successful business. Eventually, Bill sold his rig and headed down the highway. He took a few lucky passengers with him on one of his favourite hauls, working for Paciﬁc Enercon. This was a trip to Alaska and back, on some of the most scenic highways he’d driven. Later, he joined the Teamsters and worked on projects such as dams and pipelines operating heavy duty equipment. Bill retired in 1992, but he never kept still. He got the idea to build a mill in the back yard of his home on North Fork Road. He fabricated the mill without a blueprint, from scrap metal and parts and welded it together with his own hands. It was a three-year project and when completed, he sold this mill to a log home builder in Enderby. During this time, together with Marie, Bill cheered on the arrival of his ﬁve grandchildren. In his backyard he built a giant swing, push cars and other unique toys. Grandpa Bill made every visit exciting and told many stories of when he was a little boy. In July 2001, Marie passed away. Bill kept close ties with friends in the community and was honoured when he was asked to join the USCC Men’s choir. One of the highlights in Bill’s later life was traveling to Europe with his son, Bryan. He was surprised at how much he enjoyed the different culture and history of England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland. Many a toast was made over a glass of Guiness. Bill truly lived life to the fullest, right up to the day he passed away. Bill is predeceased by his parents, William and Tina Novakshonoff; his wife, Marie; his sisters: Mary Markin, Polly Malloff and Nancy Tomilin. He leaves behind his son, Bryan (Kelly) Fitzpatrick; his daughter, Renee Hubert; his grandchildren: Chase, Dylan, Brynn, Colette and Curtis; and his sisters, Tina Verigin and Ann Perepolkin. Funeral services were held on Friday, June 29, 2012, at Grand Forks Funeral Home and interment was at Evergreen Cemetery. Donations in Bill’s memory may be made to the B.C. Children’s Hospital.

Notice of Passing POLLY POPOFF January 19, 1932 to July 4, 2012 Polly was born at Grand Forks, B.C., on January 19, 1932, to Alex W. and Annie M. Semenoff. She was the second child with an older sister Helen (Blanche) and two younger brothers, Paul (Jerry) and Alex. Until Polly was wed she lived with her family at Christovoye (Place of Jesus), one of the villages established in the Outlook district of Grand Forks by the Doukhobor community. Her education began at the “Outlook School” which she attended, completing the fifth grade and into the sixth. Polly’s learning was cut short to assist her family as a wage earner at the local box factory. Our mother valued education highly and later always expressed a regret of not being able to complete her schooling. During her younger years she participated in the cultural and spiritual activities of the USCC. Mom had many close friends and relatives in the villages nearby who she socialized with; growing up an attractive young woman with numerous suitors. Her marriage to George W. Popoff on February 27, 1951, created a daughter Kathy on December 17, 1951, and later, a son Gary on October 27, 1957. As life does not always allow everyone to achieve their hopes and dreams, the marriage ended by 1960. Polly became a single mother with the demands of all parental and financial roles her own, while raising two growing children. Close family many times assisted but social support during those times was difficult to access and the stigma weighed heavily on her. Yet Polly was able to maintain her tiny home, growing a huge abundant garden from which she made preserves for winter, filled the root cellar, fed her family, and had surplus to sell to the markets in town. In addition she foraged for berries and mushrooms, which were also preserved. To supplement her income Polly worked at local farms and also cleaned offices - all while making sure she was consistently there to provide direction and comfort to her children. And with limited time and resources she made strong attempts to further her education; first attending night school with Rita Platford in the mid 1960s while her children were young and again in the late 1970s after her children were all on their own. She also acquired her license and began to drive at 50 years of age. With her children independent she was able to see some of the world, traveling into the USA, onto Hawaii, Mexico and even far in the other direction, Pond Inlet, the northern tip of Baffin Island. Polly’s greatest joy was swimming in our rivers. She swam as soon as the seasons allowed. Many times earlier, and almost always, far beyond the beginning of autumn as she found it difficult to stop. It was almost impossible to pull her out of the water. She would float on her back for hours. Her record had her in the Granby up to the end of October one year and she loved to swim in the moonlight when she could. She swam in a glacial stream at the 73rd parallel when she visited the Arctic. The ice was still 4 feet thick on the ocean a quarter mile away. Swimming gave her peace and allowed her complete tranquility. As a grandmother she lived for her grandchildren – who she took great pleasure in feeding until they burst, and showing them off to her friends. She loved them to the exclusion of all else. Polly passed away peacefully at Hardy View Lodge on July 04, 2012, with no doubt she was loved. Her family surrounded her. She was predeceased by her parents, Alex and Annie Semenoff; her sister, Helen Plotnikoff; and the father of her children, George Popoff. Left behind is her daughter, Kathy (Wayne) Tblus with children, Darren and Lisa; her son, Gary (Mekai) with children: Gabriel, Michael, Penny and Catriona. Also left to mourn are her brothers: Paul Seminoff and his wife Lorraine, and Alex Semenoff. Our mother is gone to be with the loved ones waiting for her, and to float in tranquility for eternity. The family would like to convey perpetual gratitude to her family doctor, the nurses, care-aides and staff at the Hardy View lodge for their exceptional care. Our mother was always in an environment of humour, compassion, and respect. Every staff member treated her as a friend. Some like family. An immense appreciation to those working so hard helping carry the proceedings through and allowing the family time to grieve; The pallbearers, Everett Baker and his staff, John Veregin for his kind thoughts, Uncle Jerry Seminoff for his direction, Uncle Alex Semenoff for his guidance, the USCC, the singers, the men at the grave site, the ladies who prepared the food, and anyone else who took time to assist. And finally to everyone taking time in this busy world to attend the service and see our mother along her way. God bless you all!
