Candidates navigate water issues Alina Konevski The Progress
As guests were ushered into the Sto:lo Resource Centre by volunteers fully covered in blue leotards (the human “water droplets” make water visible, explained an organizer), it was clear that this allcandidates’ meeting in Chilliwack would be slightly different. All but one of the Chilliwack and Chilliwack-Hope candidates vying for an MLA seat this election turned out to talk water, environment, and First Nations’ rights at the debate Tuesday night, organized by environmental advocacy organization WaterWealth Project. B.C. Liberal John Martin, running in Chilliwack, couldn’t attend because of a prior campaign commitment. “I regret I cannot attend this one as I enjoy these types of forums and believe they are important to the democratic process,” wrote Martin to WaterWealth campaign director Sheila Muxlow a few weeks ago. The debate brought in a full house of people who questioned candidates on the B.C. Water Act, juggling environmental protection with economic growth, the legality of aboriginal rights and title, tap water chlorination, fish farms, pipelines, and other topics. One question had candidates set a vision for their community that balances environmental stewardship with economic development. “Job creation and environmental stewardship are not mutually exclusive,” said Green Party candidate Kim Reimer, running in Chilliwack. “There are more jobs created for every dollar invested in clean technology than there are in fossil fuel technology. I think we just need creative initiatives and incentives by the government for us to start investing in these projects.” NDP candidate for Chilliwack-Hope, Gwen O’Mahony, sees the answer in supporting small- and medium-sized businesses that are using greener technologies for common tasks, such as roofing.

Bee shortage causing buzz in blueberry fields
Alina Konevski The Progress
During the past few weeks, Rosedale beekeeper Peter Awram has been getting panicked calls from blueberry growers from Chilliwack and the Lower Mainland. They’re asking him for hives, whatever he can spare, and he’s turning most of them away. Blueberry farms in Chilliwack and across B.C. are in crisis mode. Blueberries need to be pollinated now. But there aren’t enough wild bees, and growers are constrained by the dearth of pollination services. Awram works at Honeyview Farms in Rosedale alongside his

parents and two brothers. The family business is the largest bee farm in British Columbia, with about 4,000 hives. While the company raises bees to produce honey, one-third to half of its business comes from renting out honeybees to growers to pollinate this season’s crops, especially blueberries. “Just about everybody is using bees,” said Prof. Tom Baumann, who heads the University of the Fraser Valley’s Pacific Berry Resource Centre in Chilliwack. “It’s crucial to have bees. Otherwise there’s not much fruit, or miserably small berries.” Each acre of blueberries needs several hives to pollinate
it to ensure a good crop, but with honeybee populations in severe decline globally, Awram estimates that there’s not even one hive per blueberry acre in B.C. The results are usually the puny blueberries that shoppers see in the market. Despite over whelming demand for pollination services, Honeyview Farms hasn’t been able to increase its hive numbers in recent years because of the challenges of the bee business. One is the mysterious and unsolved colony collapse disorder, which hit Honeyview last year. “They started of, they looked fine, and then they just went
down, down, down,” said Awram. Another is the difficulty of nurturing bees through the Canadian winter, and replenishing hive numbers in the spring. “We can count on losing 25 per cent of bees over winter,” said Awram. Wintering equipment is very expensive, costing Honeyview $250 per hive. With 4,000 hives, that’s $1 million each year just on nurturing bees through the cold months. What complicates the situation is that Honeyview, like all Canadian beekeepers, cannot import two-pound boxed packages of bees from mainland U.S. Continued: BEE/ p13

Missing puppy reunited with anxious family Jennifer Feinberg The Progress
A pure-bred puppy worth $600 is back home after mysteriously going missing, thanks to a frontpage story in the Chilliwack Progress Tuesday. Kim Demeter says their 10-week-old yellow-lab, Zoey, is safe and sound at their Chilliwack home. “We got her back last night,” she enthused. “The kids were ecstatic.”
After the story appeared in the paper, the Demeters started getting a few calls from alert Progress readers. “It was my last resort to call the paper after she went missing,” she said. “I was like, how many more ‘lost’ posters can we put up? “I thought we had to get this in the paper.” One of the callers who read the sad tale turned out to be the key to the return of Zoey. A nearby family had apparently adopted her, not
knowing she was missing from a few blocks away. “It was perfect. If it wasn’t for the paper and the article, we would not have gotten her back.” A soon as a neighbour saw the newspaper story with the photo of the forlorn young Demeter brothers holding a picture of the dog, a lightbulb went off. They had noticed that a neighbour family had a new puppy that looked just like Zoey. The caller asked Demeter if she wanted to
come over and see for herself. “I raced over there with the kids, and scooped her up,” she recounted. There was no doubt it was Zoey. The puppy wagged her tail wildly in recognition, and she greeted the kids. It “totally paid” off to share their story in the end, Demeter added, and the family is so grateful to all the callers and concerned neighbours. There are a few loose ends.

Anti-gang police publish first community report
B.C.’s anti-gang police unit is taking a step out of the shadows and into the spotlight. The Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit (CFSEU) is the integrated team of 400 officers and civilians from 14 dif ferent agencies, including RCMP and municipal police forces, that disrupt and suppress organized crime around the province. Their investigations have cracked big cases, such as the discovery of an audacious crossborder drug-smuggling tunnel in Aldergrove and the unraveling of a massive international money-laundering ring. The CFSEU is now out to capture a bigger public profile with the publication of its first-ever Community Report. The report can be read online at bc-antigang.com. Sgt. Lindsey Houghton said the aim is to make more people aware of the CFSEU and what it does. The initiative comes as the anti-gang force chalks up a major win – the arrest in February of three men in the murder of notorious gangster Jonathan Bacon, who was shot with four associates in 2011 outside a Kelowna casino. “Some people never thought that day would ever come,” Houghton
There is no explanation for the meat that was found in the backyard, and believed to have been used to distract the older dog, Abby. Nor is there a reason why the older dog was found secured behind the gate in the backyard after she’d been seen running loose out front earlier that morning. But for now, the Demeters don’t care. They are just content to have their cuddly Zoey back.
intriguing findings on who is most likely to end up a victim of the gang violence that occasionally erupts in B.C. CFSEU researchers found the vast majority of gang-related murder victims over a four-year period had previous drug charges or convictions, and often violent criminal pasts. Most were gang members, not just associates or minor players in the drug trade, and a few were girlfriends or an innocent victim, like a man who was shot in Burnaby after picking up a Bacon brother vehicle to install a car stereo in it. B.C. gang-related killings peaked at 36 in 2009 before dropping to
18 last year. Victims are overwhelmingly men and their average age is 30, according to CFSEU stats. Three-quarters of bodies are found near the victims’ homes or vehicles. Most (85 per cent) were shot, but eight per cent were viciously beaten, six per cent were stabbed and one victim was burned to death. Also included are key risk factors for ending up in a gang and tips for parents on spotting potential signs of gang involvement. Carrying multiple cellphones, having unexplained cash and making frequent brief trips out of the home are among the
red flags. The report details how police try to keep gangsters out of bars and restaurants to keep them from recruiting new blood, as well as to prevent gang violence. This month the CFSEU said it will publicly identify suspected gangsters where possible as a new tactic to make it more difficult for organized crime to operate. After a gang-related shooting outside a gym in South Surrey, senior officers are also pledging backup for businesses that make gangsters feel unwelcome in their premises.

Near-tie in TV debate may aid trailing Liberals: Poll Dix picked as winner by more but underdog Clark had most to gain Jeff Nagel Black Press
The televised leaders’ debate Monday night ended in a neartie between NDP leader Adrian Dix and B.C. Liberal leader Christy Clark, according to a new poll.
The News1130/ Insights West online poll found more than two-thirds of B.C. residents watched at least some of the debate. Thirty-one per cent said Dix won it, 28 per cent said Clark was the winner, 13 per cent picked B.C. Green party
leader Jane Sterk, while three per cent chose B.C. Conser vatives leader John Cummins. Twenty-six per cent said there was no clear winner. Those polled who picked Clark as winner said she appeared most confident, was the best
speaker or provided the clearest vision for B.C., while those who said Dix won said he was best at answering questions and defending his ideas and did not make any major mistakes. The vast majority of those polled say the debate only confirmed
their existing choice or solidified who they were leaning towards. Just 11 per cent said they changed their voting intention as a result. Insights West president Steve Mossop said the close debate outcome appears to have sparked some momentum for Clark and the B.C. Liberals, who have
consistently trailed by a wide margin in earlier polls. “Usually underdogs have the most to gain in leaders’ debates, and in this sense, Christy Clark delivered,” Mossop said. “Sterk did as well as expected – which doesn’t impact voter outcomes, while Cummins

‘Families are just one paycheque away from living in poverty’ Poverty from page 3 “And a lot of families are just one paycheque away from living in poverty,” Homer added. She said employees who earn a living wage tend to stay longer at their jobs – saving hiring and training costs for their employers – and experience less stress and illness, reducing absenteeism from work. Homer said many employ-
ers might be scared off by the $16.37 figure, but, if they are paying benefits, that is factored in. Ross Siemens, owner of Hub Motors in Abbotsford, is a big supporter of a living wage, particularly for local businesses like his that pride themselves on quality work and customer service. “I think most small businesses I know of … are paying a living wage already. We see
the value of keeping long-term employees,” he said. Siemens said that paying a living wage isn’t appropriate for every sector – such as fast food restaurants with high student turn-over – but it can help retain good employees, which encourages people to return to those businesses, benefiting the local economy. But Allan Asaph, executive director of the Abbotsford Chamber of Commerce, said
we’re big on
many small businesses cannot afford to pay that kind of wage. “Those businesses operate on a very tight profit margin. The wages they are able to pay are a direct reflection of the profitability of the business.” Asaph said the consumer could be affected, with businesses having to raise the cost of their products and services in order to pay a higher remuneration to their employees.

WaterWealth hosts debate WATER from Front Conservative candidate Chad Eros, running in Chilliwack, disagreed that there is room for government in creating green jobs. “I don’t believe that the source of social responsibility comes from the government. The source comes from the free market,” he said. “The best cooperation that a government can give a company that’s committed to reducing greenhouse gases is to get out of the way.” Laurie Throness, running as a Liberal in Chilliwack-Hope, said, “there is no such thing as zero risk if you want any economic opportunity,” and leaned on his party platform of a five-part environmental assessment process for evaluating development projects. But several candidates mocked the existing environmental assessment regulations. “Where’s the assessment?” said B.C. Excalibur Party candidate in Chilliwack, Michael Halliday, in reference to the fish farm industry, which he said has grown powerful while putting the wild salmon industry in jeopardy. “Where was it when we okayed these salmon farms, and where is it now? When the evidence is pointing that it’s totally destroying our salmon
industry,” Halliday said. Patti MacAhonic, NDP candidate in Chilliwack, agreed that current environmental assessment procedures are not stringent enough. “I have seen our environmental assessment process gutted in our province, and gutted in Ottawa,” she said. Her NDP colleague O’Mahony thumped a copy of the 700-page Cohen Commission report on the table, in which the Department of Fisheries and Oceans is criticized for failing to protect wild salmon from open net feedlot fish farms, and said the NDP is planning to implement all of the report’s 76 recommendations. Ryan McKinnon, running as an independent in Chilliwack-Hope, grew up watching river water levels in Hope decline after the Coquihalla highway was built. “The water levels in the Coquihalla have drastically come down. When the fish are going up the river, they’re getting a sun tan because their backs are out of the river.” McKinnon believes the B.C. Water Act needs to be updated. On pipelines, Conservative candidate for Chilliwack-Hope, Michael Henshall, said that diluted bitumen pumped through existing and new pipes should be refined locally. “I think refined mate-
rials are much easier to clean up, and the economic benefit for British Columbians..would be huge,” he said. Some candidates seemed thrown when asked whether they personally supported aboriginal rights and title, and couldn’t answer directly. Liberal candidate Throness had the clearest grasp of the issue. “The rights and title of aboriginal peoples are embedded in the Charter of Canadian Rights and Freedoms, and in multiple Supreme Court decisions...The question is, how far does that go.” The answer, Throness said, is a case-by-case consideration of treaties by the courts. Reimer welcomed the question as an opportunity to expand on her platform. “I really stand for making sure that rights and title are respected, especially in regard to large
I.C.B.C. & PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS
projects that are really going to affect First Nations communities,” she said. The WaterWealth Project’s push to have candidates sign a declaration for 100 per cent local control of home waterways faced criticism. “What does 100 per cent local control look like? That’s what I want to know as an MLA. Because if you elect me and you ask me to sign a declaration, which I haven’t signed, I take it serious,” said O’Mahony. WaterWealth filmed the debate, and it will be online at www.waterwealthproject.com/. In other news, B.C. Excalibur leader Halliday is holding a meet-and-greet on Friday from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., and on Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., both at Decades Coffee Club (45846 Wellington Ave., Chilliwack).

Election halftime report
The Chilliwack

R AESIDE
The televised leaders’ debate on Monday night likely didn’t change too many minds. While it wasn’t watched in its entirety by many people, clips were replayed almost right away. Comments about it, and media coverage of it, will ensure that it has an influence on the rest of the provincial election campaign. NDP leader Adrian Dix came across quite well. Although he was clearly nervous at the beginning, he grew more confident and had no trouble answering some of the more difficult questions. His willingness to take full responsibility for his backdated memo, when he was an aide to then-premier Glen Clark, and to say he’s learned from that, was a high water mark. It should put the doubts that many people have about him on that score to rest. While his unwillingness to even consider oil and gas transport to the west coast is troubling, given that oil and gas is such a crucial component of the Canadian economy, he did at least address other areas of the economy. This was a pointed contrast to Green Party leader Jane Sterk, who when specifically asked about B.C.’s resource economy made references to wind power, geothermal energy and agriculture — without once mentioning forestry, mining and natural gas. BC Liberal leader Christy Clark stuck mainly to her talking points, about LNG developments eliminating debt and her eagerness to balance budgets. She did address the controversy about her driving through a red light (after first stopping) with her son and a reporter in her vehicle, and that should help put that issue to bed. BC Conservative leader John Cummins was willing to address the elephant in the room that the other leaders ignored — many working people in B.C. don’t have it so good. High housing costs, high fuel costs and high taxes take a lot out of their pockets, and job prospects aren’t as robust as they have been. As Cummins said Tuesday morning, the debate was simply one stop on a marathon race. It came at a time when some people are paying a little more attention to the campaign, although the majority remain quite blissfully tuned out thus far. ~ Black Press

The NDP plan is to borrow and spend
Fourth in a series on party platforms. VICTORIA – NDP leader Adrian Dix has finally rolled out his “fully costed” election platform. Major policy announcements had been released previously, but there was plenty more spending added to the total. The NDP’s health care plan is surprisingly modest – more money for home support, residential senior care, mental health and addiction services and a rural acute care initiative totaling $159 million over three years. As health critic Mike Farnworth points out, the residential care increase will allow seniors two baths a week instead of one. Full marks to the NDP for this part of the platform. Increases to Community Living B.C., children and families programs and aboriginal friendship centres are also commendable.

Other NDP proposals don’t inspire as much confidence. Raise welfare rates $20 a month and index them to inflation. Index the minimum wage to inflation too, at a time when inflation can only rise. Set up a new child bonus program to send $70 per month for each child with famTom ily income under Lesser FLETCHER $25,000. payments would go to families with income up to $66,000. This ’70s-style family allowance scheme is based on a “child poverty” claim that misrepresents federal statistics of relative income distribution. The program is optimistically budgeted at $210 million a year. Dix insists it isn’t a “big new social program,” which makes me
wonder what would qualify. It would be partly funded by cancelling a B.C. Liberal plan to establish education savings accounts for kids born after 2006. Out with selfreliance, in with the nanny state. Another $100 million is added to hire more teachers, to address the teachers’ union’s often-repeated but false claim of “a decade of cuts” in education. Another $100 million goes to student grants, much of it further subsidizing the oversupply of English, education, sociology, women’s studies, journalism and other university grads who eventually discover there is little demand for their degrees. As with welfare, increasing support for bad choices can only yield more bad choices. On a related note, the NDP will revive a ministry of women’s equality, “to promote social and economic equality to all government programs....” As with female
candidate quotas, the NDP keeps the flame of ’70s socialist feminism alive. The party totals up its new program spending to $988 million over three years. That’s exactly the amount Dix estimates will be raised by tax hikes on corporate income, bank capital, personal income over $150,000, carbon tax on oil and gas drilling, and cancelling the B.C. Liberals’ RESP and child tax credit plans. As for deficits, the NDP claims that the B.C. Liberal budget hides a deficit of $800 million this year and similar deficits in the next two years. The B.C. Liberals point to an impressive string of “net zero” wage settlements with public sector unions, the core of their spending control record. Would the NDP continue to hold the line on public service wages, as the B.C. Liberals have done? Dix’s NDP caucus and staff is

stocked with former government union officials. Party president Moe Sihota is essentially a direct employee of the same unions. The B.C. Federation of Labour has shaped the NDP’s Labour Code changes, which we won’t see until after the May 14 vote. And how much money does the “fully costed” NDP plan set aside to pay wage increases for its government union brothers and sisters? Zero. Since this is the party that appears to be cruising to victory in the May 14 election, I’ll look at what’s not in their platform and other issues next week.

Action needed to help children Agencies that serve, push for adequate long-term funding for the vulnerable Most British Columbians would say they care about children. Not just their own. We’ve agreed, as a society, that when children and youth need help and their families can’t provide it, it’s up to us. Sadly, we’re not doing a good enough job. This election campaign is an important chance to press all candidates and parties for specific commitments on services for children and youth. The good news is that we know what needs to be done. We know effective, timely supports can change lives - and avoid huge future costs. But we haven’t acted on that knowledge. Particularly when families are struggling to provide safe care for their children and the state steps in to protect and support those families. Too often, needed support is just not there. Some families need help developing better parenting skills. Some have to face addiction problems. Children might need counselling, or treatment for behavioural issues. Many are struggling with the impacts of living in poverty. The range of needed services is enormous. The children’s ministr y
receives more than 30,000 “protection reports” a year - warnings a child might be at risk of abuse or neglect. In the most serious cases, children are taken into government care. But that’s a last resort. Increasingly, the ministry is focused on linking families with help so they succeed. And that support is provided by community social service agencies across the province. Quick access to services can help families overcome problems, the ministry report notes, and “prevent families’ challenges from becoming entrenched.” But those of us who work in the community social services sector know that for many families, quick access to services is impossible. Funding for agencies has been frozen or cut, while demand for services has increased dramatically. Waiting lists have grown. Problems become more serious while desperate families can’t get the help they need. That’s wrong. And it’s wasteful. We will pay, as a society, far more in future because we aren’t providing needed support to children and families today. We’re failing in other ways. Parents know, for example, that their children need continued support as they grow into adulthood - help with school costs, a
safe home, advice and encouragement. Yet youth in government care are denied that support. On their 19th birthdays, they are basically left to fend for themselves. The results are predictable. The Ministry of Children and Family Development released a report this month that found almost half of youth who “aged out” of care were on income assistance within six months. Attending school, finding work and a place to live, staying healthy - they are all difficult, perhaps impossible, for an unsupported 19-year-old. The ministry recognizes the problem, and is looking for ways to extend support. But it lacks a clear mandate, and the needed resources. Ask your local candidates to commit to adequate long-term funding for these vital services. Push the parties for specific answers about what they will do to ensure services for family and youth are available when and where they are needed. It’s easy to say we care about children. What’s needed today is action, not more words.

More smoke alarms are being handed out across B.C. as part of a campaign to reduce preventable deaths from house fires. It’s being spearheaded by the Fire Chiefs Association of B.C. and president and Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis says the free smoke detector giveaway is targeting the elderly, aboriginals and other low-income or vulnerable residents. “These folks are truly at risk and we have to be very diligent and mindful of that,” said Garis. “Working smoke alarms save lives.” Research led by Garis with the University of the Fraser Valley found 70 per cent of fires in five years happened in homes with no working smoke detector.

Most homes have no working smoke detector Smoke from page 10 Garis noted seniors make up nearly a third of B.C. residents who die in fires even though they comprise only 15 per cent of the population. “It’s extremely disturbing,” he said of the findings.
The campaign, backed by the provincial and federal governments and corporate donors, has so far pulled together 11,500 smoke alarms that are being distributed by fire departments around the province. Smoke alarm make Kidde Canada provided

the initial 5,000 detectors and deep discounts on future purchases. The latest contribution came from Super Save Group, whose $20,000 bought another 4,000 Kidde alarms. Black Press is a campaign partner, donating advertising to promote fire safety. More information on the campaign can be found at www.fcabc.ca. While many homes have smoke detectors, Garis notes too few people check them regularly.
All smoke detectors should be replaced after 10 years and batteries should be changed annually. Garis is also pushing the province to find ways to get more sprinkler systems into apartment buildings after a fire at a Langley apartment building killed an 80-year-old resident earlier this year. Residents of buildings with no sprinkler systems are much more likely to die in a fire.

Beekeepers taking feds to court Bee from page Front These packages grow into hives, and serve to restore a bee farm’s hive numbers in the spring. In 1987, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency banned the importation of honeybee packages from the continental U.S. following a varroa mite outbreak. Within four years, the number of bee colonies in B.C. plummeted 30 per cent, from a high of 58,500 in 1987 to 40,500 in 1991, according to Statistics Canada. They have never regained that high, and were only 42,560 in 2012. Honeyview Farms in Rosedale is financially contributing to a lawsuit against the Canadian government for $200 million in damages from banning the import of bee packages. Filed in Dec. 2012, the suit is signed by three beekeepers, including
Surrey’s Honeybee Centre, and two in other provinces. “If we had the free movement of bees, they would still be wintering here, but we would be able to make up those losses,” said Awram. It’s increasingly more effort to keep the bees alive every year on Honeyview. The farm is still importing bee packages, but from Australia, New Zealand, and Chile, which cost much more. That cost is passed on to growers, and to consumers. The Rosedale business is constrained by these challenges. “We have this market if we can build it up,” said Awram. Meanwhile, because bee farmers can’t produce enough bees, blueberry growers are starved for pollination services. “We could probably produce 10, 20 million pounds (of blueber-
ries) more if we had ideal pollination,” said B.C. Blueberry Council chairperson Mike Makara. The lack of pollination is one of the top issues facing blueberry growers, and can be a deciding factor whether farmers stay in the business. “When you’re spending a set amount of dollars per acre, and you’re getting less and less production per acre because you don’t have the bees, that is critical. And that could be the difference between you’re really profitable, or just scraping by. Or maybe you shouldn’t be farming,” said Makara, who is a third generation blueberry grower. At UFV, Baumann has completed research on how to replace some of the “bee power,” as he calls it. This includes finding ways to strengthen the blueberries’ own plant
growth regulators, like hormones in humans, so that the berries produce more fruit with less pollination. The service will be commercially available next year. The federal food inspection agency has recognized that bee packages may be contributing to the bee industry’s decline. “The CFIA is currently conducting a full risk assessment to determine if imported honeybee packages from the continental U.S. no longer pose an unacceptable level of risk to Canada’s domestic honeybees,” confirmed CFIA. akonevski@theprogress.com twitter.com/alinakonevski

Helping new Canadians make the Chilliwack connection Alina Konevski The Progress
As immigrants continue to settle in Chilliwack, a local
non-profit organization has taken the lead role in helping them feel at home. Chilliwack Community Services recently received a
$133,000 grant to further increase access to services for new Canadians in the city. CCS is also planning an immigrant business fair

Real facts about gangs and crime in BC. 1. GanG members likely to die before aGe 30: In B.C., if you are 30, a male and have a violent criminal past, your probability of becoming a victim of a gang-related murder increases substantially. 2. GanG numbers have increased: In 1980, law enforcement listed just a handful of gangs and organized crime groups. Today, that number is closer to 188. 3. GanGs and orGanized crime Groups are evolvinG: In the late 1990s – 2000s multi-ethnic gangs were common. Today, new business alliances are forming and groups that were in conflict are now working together.

on Friday. Chilliwack’s agriculture and manufacturing sectors draw immigrants, as does the need to fill positions vacated by the ageing population. CCS doesn’t know how many immigrants settle here, because people have no obligation to check in. But approximately 200-250 people receive settlement support annually. According to 2006 Statistics Canada data, 14 per cent of Chilliwack’s residents are immigrants. And that figure is growing at a rate that is double the province’s average. There are 6,700 immigrants in the Fraser Valley. “Because we’re such a diverse community here, there isn’t one particular ethnic group. There’s the potential for isolation to be an issue. And if people do not feel connected to their community, if they aren’t connected to friends or family...that can be a deciding factor to relocate elsewhere in the Lower Mainland,” says Neave. If immigrants leave, then Chilliwack cannot feel the expected economic benefits. “So many of these people are very skilled. And because they can’t integrate into places outside major urban centres, they don’t actually realize their potential in the job market, which doesn’t actually help the economy,” says new Welcoming Communities program coordinator Melissa Warren. Continuing to be
friendly and welcoming is the most important thing that a Chilliwack resident can do for immigrants, explains Neave. “We need to welcome immigrants, as they are considered important to our future labour force,” says Neave. Chilliwack Community Services helps new Canadians learn English, find jobs, register for health insurance, and enroll their kids in schools. They also offer courses on driving in Canada, preparing for the citizenship test, and organize social activities such as cooking and conversation circles. With the new funds, CCS will develop a newcomer welcome kit containing a long list of relevant services in the community, hold community dialogues, and run a research project to study the immigrant experience in Chilliwack. The organization will also add data to the InfoChilliwack.ca website. New Chilliwack resident Sarka Kvicinska received a brochure advertising the CCS’ immigrant settlement services when she first landed at the Vancouver airport ten months ago. From the Czech Republic, Kvicinska followed her husband’s sense of adventure to try something new, and the family immigrated to Chilliwack. Kvicinska hopes to transfer her private French horn instruction business to the community. In the meantime, she has sharpened
her skills with local orchestra groups. Upon cold-calling Chilliwack Symphony Orchestra and Chorus conductor Paula DeWit, Kvicinska received an invite to play with the group. “This was very positive, very nice. This was my first opportunity,” says Kvicinska, who has since played with other orchestras in the Fraser Valley. Local businesses run by new Canadians will offer samples, demonstrations, and information at the annual CCS Immigrant Business Fair on May 3, 7–9 p.m. at Central Elementary Community School. 25 exhibitors have registered already, all for the purpose of strengthening their links to the community. “With community organizations working cooperatively, we are aiming to improve access to services and to provide opportunities for newcomers and residents to meet and build intercultural relationships,” said April Neave, director of community programs at CCS. Another example of successfully building linkages in Chilliwack is Wegahta Gulbet. Born in Eritrea, in northeastern Africa, Gulbet is into her third year since relocating to Chilliwack for the peace and high quality of life in Canada. Her husband and two children moved to the community on the advice of her brother-in-law, who was here already. She had a tougher time settling in, but says she has grown
to like Chilliwack. “I am very happy to get to Canada now,” says Gulbet. What helped was attending the Women of the World conversation circle at the CCS. “I met new women. We spoke about how we came to Canada, what feelings we have. It was the first time I felt a little better.” Gulbet has found her membership with the Chilliwack Alliance Church to be very helpful as well. She is now studying for her citizenship test through courses at the CCS. Come April 1, 2014, the federal government will take over settling new immigrants in B.C., a mandate that has been the province’s jurisdiction since 1998. Ottawa says the move is in effort to harmonize settlement services nationally while cutting costs. Refugee claimants and temporary foreign workers will be excluded from the federal government’s settlement programs. Chilliwack’s welcome centre will not be able to use federal funding to assist people in these groups in settling here. “Citizenship and Immigration Canada and B.C. meet weekly to ensure that newcomers will continue to receive the services they need, including access to language training, after April 2014,” said CIC spokesperson Danielle Vlemmiks. akonevski@theprogress.com twitter.com/alinakonevski

Neighbours Sarah Williams: The power of positive When you look at any circumstance in your life, it is actually neutral. How you choose to react to those circumstances is the difference between a positive or negative reaction. Some choose to live with inner peace while others, for whatever reason, gravitate to inner unrest. When you happen to be around those who consciously or unconsciously choose to live in negativity, you feel absolutely drained. Then there are those who choose to rise above it all and who look for the good and positive aspects of their life. This is enriching and life-giving not only for them but for those around them. This is Sarah Williams, a vivacious, positive and energizing woman! After a few moments with Sarah, I not only felt as if I’d known her my entire life but I felt ready to conquer the world. Sarah actually arrived in the world prematurely. “My parents were on vacation in Tofino at the time and I decided to make my entrance a month early. I guess I couldn’t wait to come into the world,” she laughed. Growing up in Chilliwack, Sarah was involved in Highland dance for many years and she was what you’d call your typical girlie girl. “I always enjoyed shopping and dressing up,” she acknowledged. While a student at Sardis Senior Secondary, she was quite social but was attracted to accounting and the business classes. “I also enjoyed sewing and fashion-type classes,” she said. Upon graduation, she had every intention of going into law or accounting but instead headed off to Okanagan University College in Kelowna to study business admin-
istration. After two years, she received her diploma and those that knew her best were encouraging her to put in another two years to finish off her degree. ”I didn’t want to do that. I may have been naïve at the time but I wanted to get at it now! I was excited and wanted to open up my own business; something that I’d long dreamed about. I didn’t Ana think of the negaMacedo tives. I jumped in with both feet and took a risk and made my business work by sheer hard work, determination and enthusiasm,” she said. Her first hurdle was to get a bank interested in loaning her money. Fortunately, First Heritage (Envision) came through and in 2005, Sarah started living out her dream by opening up BELLA Clothing Boutique in Kelowna. “It’s an Italian name that means beautiful. I have no Italian in my background but I just loved the name. After all, I wanted ladies to feel good and beautiful in the clothes,” she enthused. Upon reflection, Sarah wouldn’t have done things any other way except that she wouldn’t have started off with quite as much space. “I will say that 2,000 square feet was a bit too much space and hard to fill, although I made it work.” She also worked too hard for far too long without any help. For 4 years Sarah worked by herself 6 days a week. “It was good in that I got to know my business and my clients but I wouldn’t recommend it,” she said.
Then 4 years ago, at the age of 26 and on the day of her sister’s wedding, the unthinkable happened. Sarah woke up and just didn’t feel right. She felt pins and needles down her right side. She decided to take a shower, thinking that perhaps the symptoms would subside but after getting out of the shower, they hadn’t gone away. Rather, they were intensifying. “My older sister was in med school and I began telling her that I felt awkward and while we were talking, I guess I began slurring my words. We immediately took a taxi to the hospital and by the time that I got there, I couldn’t walk. They did an MRI right away but thought that it was MS (Multiple Sclerosis) because there is a history of the disease in the family. There was an older doctor who kept saying that he thought it was a stroke but no one would listen to him because I was so young,” she explained. Three months later, it was confirmed that Sarah did have a mini-stroke, the result of thick blood. “I was put on blood thinners which I will be on for the rest of my life and the conditions were reversed although to this day I do have some numbness in my right arm and when I’m overtired, I will slur my words. My mom always knows when I’m tired,” she chuckled. For Sarah, this was a real wake up call. “Working long, long hours just isn’t worth it. I do love what I do but there has to be balance. I drink a lot of water; I eat right, exercise and don’t smoke anymore. You know, 1 in 3 women will have a heart attack or stroke and it doesn’t just happen to older women. Those are alarming stats

and we have to change that!” she said. A few months ago, she was the Heart & Stroke Foundation’s keynote speaker at a Red Dress fundraiser in Kelowna to raise awareness about the importance of heart health. Aside from owning her own business and giving back to her community, which she was encouraged to do from a young age, Sarah is also a sales rep for a couple of Canadian clothing designers, “Getting out of my own store and connecting with others right across Canada is important, it’s a wonderful opportunity and something that I love doing,” she said. Sarah’s family is in Chilliwack and she has many friends here so what a better opportunity than to franchise your store in a community that you love. “I was approached by Kim McLandress to open up a Bella in Chilliwack. I had always wanted to franchise the brand and after working out all of the details, we proceeded. I’m really very excited and Kim will do a wonderful job. It was a really good fit. The store, which is called Bella Clothing Boutique, is located in Sardis Park and it appeals to women of all ages; from the young to the more mature. We have classic pieces but we also have unique and funky styles. Bella offers a full range,” she explained. There is no doubt that Sarah Williams is an inspiration for anyone who dares to dream. She set a goal at a young age and through sheer determination and hard work made the dream a reality. It can also be said that she’s a poster child for someone, who in the face of adversity, pushes on, remains focused and positive and overcomes the negative to make a difference in the world.

Thursday, May 2, 2013 The Chilliwack Progress
Community Kittens and rabbits are in focus at the open house event May 4 in support of the Chilliwack branch of the SPCA. “We’re hoping for a great turnout,” said Chilliwack SPCA manager Ivanna Ferris. It’s “kitten season” ever y spring so they typically have
more kittens and cats than they know what to do with coming into the shelter, and look forward to showing off some of the animals seeking forever homes through adoption. The Annual Open House of the Chilliwack SPCA will see half-price adoptions on all cats,
kittens and rabbits, along with shelter tours, and educational displays. There will also be a bake sale at the open house and a barbecue with refreshments. “We’re also asking members of the community to help animals in need by dropping off urgently
needed items for the shelter,” says Lorie Chortyk, general manager of community relations for the BC SPCA. “Wish list items include cans of Hill’s brand wet cat and dog food, KONG dog toys, radios or CD players, patio umbrellas (to help shade the Continued: SPCA/ p19

Murder Room has intriguing secrets to reveal Jennifer Feinberg The Progress
In three acts, The Murder Room blends the intrigue and staying power of a whodunit with the lighter elements of a comedic farce. The smart British mystery farce written by Jack Sharkey runs May 8-11 at G.W. Graham theatre, directed by Randy Newbury. Set an old English cottage, the audience learns of a murder, secret chambers, sliding doors and intriguing gadgets. What happens when the socalled murder victim’s body suddenly mysteriously disap-
pears? Over-the-top mayhem ensues as everyone turns detective and it’s hilarious. “The Murder Room is both quirky and funny,” said Newbury. “It makes you sit up and think.” The setting is Bynwood Cottage in the U.K. and it was built by one of the characters in the play, Edgar Hollister, played by James Rawson. The cast features six GWG students, including Rawson, along with Lucas Simpson, Alycia Duncan, Jasmine Rolls, Lauren Marshall and Mike Hayden. “There’s a great balance of
new blood and some familar faces. They’ve been working hard to make it a great show. It’s a family-friendly production with entertaining aspects that will appeal to everyone, says the director. “It’s funny and it’s great to see kids playing these parts.” The larger-than-life characters allow for a lot of physical humour and the piece flows quite smoothly. One reviewer called it a “good mixture of Agatha Christie, Monty Python and Abbott and Costello.” Newbury, who has directed for the Chilliwack Players’ Guild as well, said he was

thoroughly intrigued with the wonderful stage setup in the G.W. Graham Theatre. “It’s a great theatre stage, and far better than the ones I got to work with when I was in high school,” he said. About a year ago he was chatting with a friend about his desire to direct a play in the theatre, and soon after he was approached by Drama teacher Damon Fultz about the idea of directing a play. “It’s been incredibly rewarding.” He credits the hard work of everyone on the team from producer Fultz, to the cast, and Susan Newbury, to stage

A silent auction, raffle and door prizes are part of the fun. Appies and refreshments will be served.

Classic tale of pirates and adventure comes to the Chilliwack stage Theatre Junkies Anonymous Fine Arts, who burst onto the stage with The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe last May, is dropping the curtain on its second
season with the classic tale, Treasure Island. Jim Hawkins, a young boy who longs to explore the world, gets swept up on an a daring race for buried gold when he meets
the infamous pirate, Long John Silver. The production runs at the University of the Fraser Valley May 22-26. This exciting adventure for all ages is adapt-
ed from the original novel by Robert Louis Stevenson and is being directed by the company’s Artistic Director, Megan Mackenzie, and local actor Gabby
Bohmer. “Treasure Island has something for everyone,” says Mackenzie. “Our talented cast of nineteen performers present comedic, dramatic and

in a way that is both authentic and creative.” Taking on the iconic role of Jim Hawkins is local actor Patrick Jolicoeur, who has appeared in Theatre Junkies Anonymous’ past two productions. Most recently, he played Fred Burnett in the soldout run of A Christmas Carol. The evil buccaneer Long John Silver is played by Chilliwack resident, Eldon Letkeman. This is Letkeman’s first production with the company. “He is charismatic, cunning and, underneath it all, willing to exact his plan at any cost,” says Letkeman of his multi-layered character. “Finding the balance between charm and meanness is a challenge. There are times we want him to succeed and times we don’t, so allowing the audience to see that will be my goal.” This show is a theatre for young audiences production, meaning that it is intended for families and audiences of all ages. “It has action, comedy, tragedy, and some might even detect a bit of love in there too!” says Dallas Hanson, Chilliwack actor and musician, who plays Billy Bones in Treasure Island. “It is a wonderfully produced show that showcases some amazing local talent and nothing is better than supporting your community.” Other local actors in the ensemble, playing a variety of roles, include: Adriel Brandt, Rebekah Brisco, Philip Dyck, Aaron Froc, Darin Graham, Torry Janz, Kirk MacFarlane, Madison MacArthur, Danielle Milette, Noah Park, Colleen Plenert, Melissa Regamble, Thomas Smith, Jenna Veenbaas, Derek WardHall and Jessie Whatley. The UFV Chilliwack North Theatre is located at 45635 Yale Road. Shows run on May 22 at 7:30pm; May 23 at 7:30pm; May 24 at 7:30pm; May 25 at 2pm and 7:30pm; and May 26 at 2pm.

Lakeside Beach Club for seafood and patio fun Jennifer Feinberg The Progress
The same high standards of locally inspired cuisine and great service found at Restaurant 62 of Abbotsford will be upheld when the owners open a sister operation near Chilliwack. Lakeside Beach Club is set to open in the Plaza in the Park at Cultus Lake this summer, says executive chef/owner Jeff Massey. The Beach Club will be a laidback and casual affair with plans for a barbecue out on the spacious patio. Renovations are underway in earnest at the restaurant across from the Cultus Lake Water Park. “It’s going to be a fun spot,” the chef says. “I think people will enjoy being out on the patio this summer.” Think tender, fresh mussels from Salt Spring Island with clams and smoked bacon in a lovely seafood chowder. Or how about some light and zesty crab cakes with red pepper jelly, or done to perfection fish filet with roast vegetables. “We’re going to have some killer burgers, and people will smell them grilling all the way from the lake,” says co-owner Alicia Bodaly. “We plan to offer all the staples. The idea is, make it fresh and make it good.” They’re leaning toward includ-

ing Fraser Valley duck, or maybe some Maple Hills Farm chicken wings, but everything with a pareddown, beach-friendly approach. The chance to take over the vacant restaurant was appealing. “The opportunity is here and we’re not afraid,” says Bodaly. “The locals have been so supportive and it’s a nice feeling to be welcomed.” Summertime is actually a less busy time for Restaurant 62, so the timing and the opposite seasons of the two restaurants should work out nicely, she said. Massey, who lives in Chilliwack, said they’re gearing up to bring a little of the Steveston fishing village feel to Cultus Lake Park. “We want to put an emphasis on our seafood. We’re one of the few who can present a freshly cooked fish filet that is moist and never dry.” Mouth-watering baby back ribs with a house glaze and low-andslow cooked braised short ribs are two other menu items being considered. The price points will range from $8 for a shared plate to $20 to $24 for a main. “It will be worth the drive,” Massey promises. The restaurant will be open for lunch and dinner seven days a week through the summer. Winter hours are to be announced. http://www.restaurant62.ca/ jfeinberg@theprogress.com

Mother’s Day is almost here, and many of us are still looking for some inspiration. Well, let me make a few suggestions. There’s scientific proof now that flowers and plants not only make people happy but they are also therapeutic. They make our living spaces a lot more enjoyable as well. The type of plant you give, however, should adapt to Mom’s lifestyle. If she is away a great deal, small tropicals or hanging baskets certainly are not the answer. I would suggest something like an outdoor garden. Larger patio tubs can go a long while between waterings and you know, the addition of a small tree can make quite a difference to a patio.

Containers about the size of a half barrel, such as large 50cm cedar tubs or terracotta pots, can make an attractive permanent garden. By using lightweight soil mixes, the weight problem can be minimized. If you add casters to the bottom of the pots, they can be easily moved if necessary, or if you just want to change the perspective. The types of trees that can be used as focal points in the containers are really unlimited, but some of my favourites are the new Japanese willow ‘Hakara Nishiki’ with its variegated white and pink foliage, standard forms of dwarf conifers or the many smaller Japanese maples. These trees

change with each season and also leave room for colourful annuals, perennials, bulbs and even herbs to make a wonderful showing all year round. Hanging baskets and colourful patio tubs are a nice gift too, but make sure they are Brian large MINTER enough that they do not require daily attention. There are so many being mass produced today, so try to find something unique and that has a personal touch. The containers need to be a minimum of 16-18 inches across and deep to keep the maintenance down. If you are giving a gift of fuchsias or begonias, make sure they are going to a shady location. Nothing is more disheartening than receiving a gift that you know will have to

Why not put together a basic containerized vegetable garden and include the latest compact growing vegetables like ‘Tumbler’ tomatoes, everbearing strawberries, a host of new colourful leaf lettuce varieties and everbearing ‘Rainbow’ swiss chard. Planting a tree for special occasions is not only a nice commemorative gesture, but is also a good environmental plan. This is especially true in urban areas. There are many kinds of trees that are well suited to small gardens, but I have a few suggestions, such as Japanese maples, Japanese snowbells, beautiful pink dogwoods, tree form magnolias, and the weeping katsura tree. Flowering trees that attract birds or butterflies to the yard are wonderful. Buddleias (butterfly bush), especially the new Proven

Winners dwarf variety, ‘Lo & Behold’, really do attract all kinds of beautiful butterflies. The fast-growing new orange flowered vine called Campsis ‘Indian Summer’ attracts hummingbirds. Flowering crabapples, like the new disease free ‘Red Jewel’ and the red flowered ‘Prairie Fire’ have pleasing fall fruits which attract birds. The Korean or kousa dogwood not only has gorgeous blossoms and great fall colour, but also has edible seed pods. There are all kinds of fall berried plants like weeping cotoneasters, espalliered pyracanthas and lingonberries that look great in the landscape by providing winter colour and supplying food for birds as well. Moms enjoy fragrance, and there are all kinds of choices. From the new Proven Winners compact ‘Bloomerang’ lilac that blooms now and again in fall to the fragrant snowball shrub (Viburnum carcephalum), and from elegant Oriental lilies to old-fashioned English roses, there is much from which to choose. Perennial plants are always appreciated, and peonies, old fashioned hardy orchids (bletilla), ruffled poppies and lavenders are among the most cherished. Water on the patio is now a huge trend. Containers that hold water are quite magnificent filled with floating water hyacinths, water lilies and a myriad of colourful flowering water plants. All of these suggestions are gifts that will last and for the most part, grow in beauty each year. You might even plant Mom’s gift for her - in the right location of course! Be a little creative this year. It is not only the flowers and plants but also the innovative ways in which they can be used and enjoyed, either inside or out, that makes the difference. Add your own special touch, and it will mean a great deal more.

Prospects sign
The Chilliwack Chiefs announced the commitment of two players Tuesday, with Kyle Westeringh and Carter Cochrane signing on for 201314. Westeringh, a 1996-born Chilliwack native, spent last season with the BC Major Midget Hockey League’s Fraser Valley Thunderbirds. The forward collected 11 goals and nine assists in 25 games. Westeringh also got his feet wet in the BCHL, suiting up for three Chiefs games.
Cochrane, a 1996-born defenceman from Kamloops, is the brother of Chiefs forward Tanner Cochrane. He spent last season with the KIJHL junior B Golden Rockets. Cochrane showed some offensive flair, tallying nine goals and 12 assists in 34 regular season games. He added another three goals and 14 points in 10 playoff games, and appeared in one Chiefs game. “Both Kyle and Carter impressed our scouting staff during the season and at our spring camp,” said Chiefs general manager and head coach Harvey Smyl. “We like the way they play and we believe they have the character it takes to be a Chilliwack Chief.” There will be openings aplenty at training camp this fall, with over half the 2012-13 roster graduating or moving on to NCAA hockey. See chilliwackchiefs.net for more.

Redhawks take title in shootout The Chilliwack Redhawks U-14 girls soccer team won the BC Coastal Girls Soccer League ‘CC’ Cup Championship last Saturday, vanquishing the Ladner Dragons to take the title. The bronze division game was played in Vancouver. The Chilliwack girls, who’d faced four previous do-or-die playoff matches, weren’t fazed by the pressure, even as regulation time elapsed without a single goal scored. The game was settled in a shootout, with each team sending a maximum five players to the line. Only four were needed for the Redhawks to win.
While Petra Middleburg was stopping everything she faced in the Chilliwack net, Danaye Reinhardt and Kara Vinchoff were pounding balls past the Ladner keeper. After Middleburg’s final epic save, the Chilliwack girls stormed the field to celebrate the win. The Redhawks roster included Carolyn Kooyman, Kellie Spindor, Tricia Jensen, Taylor McDonald, Megan Shields, Katelyn Minchuk, Sarah Noel, Ashley Moorehouse, Alyssa Friesen, Sarah Burke, Sam Pruss, Carlee Hagen, Hayley Stefaniuk and Toni Kurtz. Dale Reinhardt and Jeff Shields coached.

Gord McConnell took on the world’s best, and came home with two gold medals from the 2013 Yonex Canadian Masters Badminton Championships. The 70-year-old joined a field of 193 competitors, playing on 10 courts in Richmond last weekend. He competed in four events, winning his first gold in men’s 70+ doubles. McConnell teamed up with Kamloops native Mur ray Foubister, taking on Darryl Knott (Canada) and Jan Syberg (United States) in quarter-final action. After beating them, McConnell and his partner advanced to face Daryl Bissell (Canada) and David Brown (Canada) in a semi-final. After dropping the first game 19-21, McConnell and Foubister roared back to take the bestof-three 21-17 and 21-17.
Tier-two clash at Townsend The BC Football Conference has asked Chilliwack to host a tier-two junior football game this Sunday at Townsend Park.

The Prince George roster includes several players who will be donning Husker colours this summer, including Brennan Adrian, Duncan Finch and Ryan Gallo. Get more information at bcjuniorfootball.ca

Stealers reach May Madness semi The Chilliwack Stealers girls fastpitch squad earned bronze at last weekend’s May Madness U-14 tournament in Ridge Meadows. Heavy rain kept the Stealers on the sidelines Saturday. When the clouds cleared out Sunday morning, Chilliwack faced the Ridge Meadows Rampage. The Stealers coughed up a late lead, losing 6-5. But they bounced back in their next roundrobin game, bombing the Ridge Meadows Slammers 19-5. Kiana Kelly and Amanda Marshall clubbed home runs in the route, which landed Chilliwack in a playoff match versus the Ridge Meadows Canadians. Marshall was on the pitcher’s mound for this one. Marshall and reliever Ashley Guthrie limited the Canadians to just one run as the Stealers earned a 7-1 win. The good times came to an end in the semifinal, with a 10-5 loss to the Surrey Demons. Surrey led 10-0 heading into the final inning. But Chilliwack plated five, with help from base stealers Nathania Braun and Danika Rahnborn, to make the final score look better.
Making Mayhem Chilliwack’s first and only girls rep A softball team finished second in their first A tournament of the season in North Delta. The injur y-ravaged U-12 Chilliwack Mayhem beat the Delta Heat (10-1) and Ridge Meadows Pride (6-3) in round robin play, and beat the Victoria Devils 3-0 in a semi-final. They came up short against the Surrey Storm, losing 5-0 in the final, but the overall result is promising as the team prepares for provincials in July. Batting leaders were Kara Wismer (.425), Kennedy Galley (.500) and Mattisen Henrotte (.405). Kyra Wiens pitched the Mayhem to a 3-1 record with a .115 ERA. Hank Soltys caught every throw behind the plate.

deVOS Jacoba
Marilyn passed away on April 24, 2013 at the age of 78. After a long prolonged illness she fiLEBED nally is at rest without pain and suffering. Marilyn is survived by her loving husband Russell after 59 years and four months; and her cousin Eleanor Beatty. Marilyn is a past Grand Matron of The Grand Chapter of BC & Yukon Order of the Eastern Star. Marilyn was a member of Chilliwack Chapter 49, she is also an honorary member of several Chapters in BC. Marilyn served on many committees and activities through her 50 years in the Order. Marilyn received her 50-year pin in hospital, prior to her passing. Marilyn loved the fraternity and all the things about it that gave her pleasure. Marilyn’s year as the Worthy Grand Matron had a theme, which was Christmas. Her club was the Starlight Angels and Christmas was everywhere she traveled in the province. She has a large collection of music boxes and gifts given to her which are based on Christmas. It’s a happy time of year when friends and family gather to celebrate and renew friendships and Marilyn often said the world would be a better place if Christmas was every day or at least the feeling we get at that time of year. Many members and friends are mourning her passing.
It is with great sadness to announce the passing of Loving Wife, Dedicated Mom, Cher- McMULLAN ished Sister and Best Nana ever, Esther “Louise� McMullan who went to heaven on Saturday, April 27, 2013 at the too early age of 63 years. Louise was born on August 9, 1949 in Londonderry, Northern Ireland where she was raised with her four sisters and one brother. She met her future husband at the age of 16 on a blind date. Hedley and Louise dated for four years and were married on September 20, 1969. They resided in Londonderry where they started their own family and Louise worked at a shirt factory before they moved to Strabane where she got a job in a nylon factory. In 1975, at the age of 26, Louise and Hedley packed up their two little girls to immigrate to Chilliwack, BC, Canada where they made their home for the rest of her days and where her family remains. Louise did housekeeping until she started working at Chilliwack General Hospital as a Patient Care Aid for 16 years until she retired early. Louise will be deeply missed by her husband of 43 years, Hedley and their two daughters, Julie (John) and Joanne (Clayton), her four grandkids, Joel, Jessica, Cassidy and Paige, her sisters Heather (Ken), Hilary (Tommy), Vivienne (Joe), Sandra, many nieces, nephews and other family and friends. Louise was sadly predeceased by her parents, Joe and Ruby Moore and her precious brother, Raymond. Her favorite pastime was taking care of and spending time with her four treasured grandchildren. She played endless games of cards, checkers, snakes and ladders and never let them win as she always thought it was best to teach them a lesson. Nana’s taxi went all over the place and she was a constant at their schools and sport events. Mom hosted weekly Tuesday night dinners for us as her family was everything to her. Outside of family, Louise loved playing darts, play-
ing poker on the computer, watching her soap operas and enjoyed reality shows like Dancing with the Stars and the Bachelor. Any time spent with family and friends made Louise’s day and she valued each and every one who was lucky enough to know her. Louise was so kind hearted and caring. They don’t make them like her anymore, she was an amazing woman who can never be replaced or forgotten but will live on and around us forever. A Memorial Service with reception will be held at 2:00 pm on Friday, May 3, 2013 at Woodlawn Mt. Cheam Funeral Home, 45865 Hocking Ave, Chilliwack; Angus Haggerty officiating. Special thanks to the dedicated and caring ICU nurses and doctors at Surrey Memorial Hospital and also those who took care of her during her short stay at Chilliwack Hospital. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Louise McMullan’s name to the BC Lung Association, PO Box 34009 Stn D, Vancouver, BC V6J 9Z9. Woodlawn Mt. Cheam Funeral Home 45865 Hocking Avenue, Chilliwack, BC V2P 1B5 (604) 793.4555

My soul longs, yea, even faints for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God. – Psalm 84: 2 Jacoba deVos passed away peacefully on April 26, 2013 at the age of 92. Our beloved deVOS mother, grandmother and great-grandmother passed into the presence of her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Born 1921 in Goudswaard, The Netherlands and emigrated with her husband to Sunnyside, WA and later retired in Chilliwack BC. She lived for many years at Sunset Manor and more recently at the Waverly where she received outstanding love and care from all those who cared for her. She was predeceased by her husband Gerrit deVos in 1960 and son-in-law Adrian DenHoed in 2008. She is survived by four children: Arie (Lydia) deVos, Helen Den Hoed, Frances (Sander) DeJong and Henrietta (John) Van Woerden; 17 grandchildren and 41 greatgrandchildren. Funeral services will be held at Smith Funeral Home in Sunnyside, WA on May 4, 2013 at 11 AM . Pastor A.H.Verhoef officiating. Interment to follow at Sunnyside Cemetery where she will be layed to rest by her late husband Gerrit.
Marilyn also enjoyed quilting and many other hobbies during her life. We would like to thank the Kidney Care Team that looked after Marilyn for many years. They are exceptional professionals and very special people at the Abbotsford Regional Hospital. The doctors and nurses at CGH that looked after Marilyn have our thanks for the comfort and care she received during her difficult ordeal. A memorial tea will be held at the Masonic Hall, 1:00 pm, on June 8, 2013 to celebrate Marilyn’s life. “I believe in angels Something good in everything I see, I believe in angels When I know the time is right for me I’ll cross the stream, I have a dream. Sleep well my love till we meet again.�
