CHILD PORN SENTENCE
Abbotsford News
An Abbotsford man has been handed five more years in jail for defrauding both Simon Fraser University (SFU) and the Cultus Lake Park Board (CLPB). Siamak Saidi, 55, was sentenced May 1 in Vancouver provincial court to a total of six years – five for the SFU crimes and one year for the CLPB offence – but was given one year credit for time already served. He previously pleaded guilty to two counts of fraud over $5,000 and one count of forgery over $5,000. Saidi was also ordered to pay restitution of $50,000 to SFU and about $10,500 to the park board. He was a chartered accountant with SFU in Burnaby from June 2010 until he was terminated in January 2012 due to restructuring. A new manager noticed some irregularities in Saidi’s record-keeping, according to court documents. An RCMP investigation revealed that Saidi had submitted and endorsed false invoices to SFU for supplies ordered from six companies for which he has been listed as a director. SFU had neither ordered nor received any of the supplies, and it was discovered that Saidi had used the $847,000 in misappropriated funds to Continued on A5

Fraser Health cuts surgeries Jeff NAGEL Black Press
Fraser Health has curtailed surgeries in order to avoid an operating room budget overrun despite the fact surgical wait times at its hospitals are already significantly longer than for patients in the neighbouring Vancouver Coastal region. Dr. Peter Blair, director of the surgical program for Fraser Health, said the reduction of surgeries since January and February was “only by a few per cent” and not the 20 per cent cut a White Rock orthopedic surgeon claimed last week. Dr. Arno Smit, chief of surgery at Peace Arch Hospital, told Black Press a waiting list crisis is coming unless the health authority reverses the cuts and authorizes more use of mothballed operating rooms. Blair said he’s hopeful Fraser will soon be granted a budget increase allowing more surgeries, but said the curtailed surgical pace is continuing for now. It’s not a budget cut, he said, but a reduction in actual surgeries performed to bring OR spending back down to budgeted levels. Asked if averting a deficit has driven up wait times, Blair said he hasn’t yet seen any clear evidence of that yet.
Abbotsford among hospitals with longest wait times But surgical wait time data reported by the provincial government shows patients at most hospitals in Fraser are already waiting considerably longer than those near Vancouver or most other parts of B.C. The two benchmarks the province uses to gauge surgical waits is how long it takes to complete 50 per cent of cases and 90 per cent of cases in each hospital, specialty or region. For the first three months of 2014 until March 31, Fraser completed half its surgeries within 6.4 weeks – the other half of patients waited longer than that – compared to 5.1 weeks at Vancouver Coastal and 6.0 weeks for the B.C. average. Ninety per cent of surgeries performed in those months at Fraser waited less than 31.3 weeks (10 per cent waited longer), compared to 23 weeks for Vancouver Coastal and 28.3 weeks for the provincial average.
That indicates patients in Fraser waited 25 to 35 per cent longer than in Vancouver Coastal in January to March, even though two of those three months saw Fraser’s ORs running over-budget before being curtailed. He cited population growth as the main challenge making it difficult to meet wait time targets. The Lower Mainland hospitals with the worst surgical waits in the first three months of the year were Burnaby Hospital at 47.7 weeks to reach the 90 per cent completion mark, Abbotsford Regional at 39.2 weeks, 36.9 weeks for Langley Memorial, 36.7 weeks for B.C. Children’s, 35.7 weeks for Peace Arch and 35 weeks for Surrey Memorial. As of March 31, Fraser hospitals had 20,233 patients awaiting surgeries, compared to 17,389 at Vancouver Coastal. A report released in February by B.C.’s auditor general showed Fraser Health has the lowest per capita funding per year in B.C. at $1,585 (in 2011-12) – in comparison with Vancouver Coastal Health, which received $3,008 per capita. Vancouver Island Health received $2,554, Northern Health received $2,465 and Interior Health received $2,372.

The Abbotsford Police Department (APD) has added “Don’t Use Your Phone” stickers to all of its marked police vehicles as a reminder for citizens to leave their phones alone while driving. Const. Paul Walker said the initiative is part of the APD’s “continued goal to bring awareness to road safety along with the dangers in using an electronic device while driving.” Using a handheld device while driving can net a $167 violation ticket. “Distracted driving is a contributing factor in many collisions, which are avoidable in many ways,” Walker said.

Sentenced for child porn offences Abbotsford News
An Abbotsford man who previously pleaded guilty to five sexual offences against two boys under the age of 10 has been sentenced to two years in jail followed by three years’ probation. The man, 61, whose name is under a publication ban that protects the boys’ identities, was sentenced Friday in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver on charges of making child porn, distributing child porn, possession of child porn, and two counts of sexual interference. The three additional charges – another count of sexual interference and two counts of invitation to sexual touching – were stayed. Four of the five charges to which the man pleaded guilty involved one boy, and the fifth – sexual interference – was in relation to the boy’s older brother. According to information presented at the start of the man’s trial, the offences took place sometime between October 2005 and April 2011, when the boys and their mother were living

with the man. He was arrested in the Abbotsford home in April 2011, following a tip by U.S. authorities, and the two boys were removed and placed in foster care. Police seized evidence that included two laptop computers, a computer tower and several CDs. Analysis of the items turned up two videos and several photos that fall under the Criminal Code category of child pornography. The videos showed a man and a young boy, who was identified as the younger of the two brothers. The videos had been sent through a Yahoo account to a man in North Dakota. Police at the time said it was unusual and disturbing to find such images created on a local level; people charged with child pornography offences usually access videos and photos made in other countries. The older boy later provided statements to police that led to the final charge. The man’s trial began in October on the eight charges, but he changed his plea the following day.

Charged with 55 break-ins ONLINE abbynews.com
A 19-year-old man and 23-yearold woman have been charged in connection to 55 break-ins and thefts from vehicles stretching from Squamish to Abbotsford. The pair are accused of keeping a hotel room and storage locker filled with stolen goods, including 40 sets of keys, credit cards, jewelry, elec-
tronics, passports, Nexus cards and government ID. Investigators with the Integrated Municipal Provincial Auto Crime Team (IMPACT) will be contacting victims to reunite them with their stolen property. Charged are Brandon Russell Cumming-Hobson and Samantha Rose Wooton, both of Surrey.

purchase properties, make improvements to properties and pay for mortgages. Three properties – in Belcarra, Burnaby and Abbotsford – were listed as having benefited from the funds. Saidi was charged in August 2013, but prior to that, he was hired as the CLPB’s manager of financial services. He was placed on forced leave from that job when the SFU fraud charges were laid. At that time, the park board did not find that any unauthorized financial transactions by Saidi had taken place. It was later discovered that, while working for the CLPB,
Saidi misrepresented his professional credentials by using the chartered management accountant (CMA) designation, although he was not qualified to do so. An external audit later revealed that, in October 2012, Saidi had diverted a harmonized sales tax refund for the CLPB into a trust account that he controlled. He was charged with that offence on March 17 of this year. SFU also launched a civil suit against Saidi and won an order in December that he pay back the $847,000 that he fraudulently obtained. The court ordered that both the Burnaby and Belcarra properties be sold and the net proceeds turned over to SFU.

Charges are pending against a man who refused to surrender to police for about four hours last Friday night. The 38-year-old is facing at least a charge of obstruction and could face other charges, depending on what might have been found during a search of the residence. The incident began at about 8 p.m., when the Abbotsford Police Department attempted to execute a drug search warrant at a home in the 34000 block of Gladys Avenue, near the Salvation Army. A man in the home refused police commands to exit the residence. The emergency response team, with the assistance of a K-9 unit, entered the home at about midnight and found the man hiding. He was taken into custody without further incident, and was arrested on an outstanding warrant. It it not known at this time whether any drugs, or other items, were found in the home. The man’s name cannot be released until he is formally charged.

ABBOTSFORD NEWS I Wednesday, May 7, 2014
Reroute rather than shift the problem ment turning downtown Abbotsford into another Lac-Megantic, just think of the traffic snarls when many more trains block two of our city’s main east-west thoroughfares. Right now there is funding in place to put a rail overpass on Vye Road to eliminate traffic blockages on that route caused by both the BNSF and Southern Rail lines – the latter causing most of the congestion due to shunting. Thus, if an overpass is required at that location, just imagine the need for similar structures, and the real estate disruptions they would cause, on Essendene and George Ferguson Way when up to 16 more long trains are rerouted through Abbotsford. And with oil transport by rail surging, it can only get worse! Oddly enough, Abbotsford’s attempt at relieving congestion on Vye Road may become a positive factor to reroute the trains, allowing White Rock to point out that the disruptions in our city are being minimized while they have no options. On the other hand, I don’t diminish White Rock’s concerns. It is a beautiful beachfront city that would be even more beautiful if it weren’t separated from the beach by the rail-
Mark
Rushton On the
Other Hand Apparently the City of White Rock is meeting with Burlington Northern and Santa Fe brass next week to discuss the movement of rail cars, particularly those carrying dangerous goods such as oil and gasoline, along their beachfront. The meeting is to discuss not moving these cars past their homes and stores, and instead shift them to the BNSF that runs through Abbotsford, next to our homes and stores. With that in mind, it might be fortuitous for Abbotsford councillors to attend this meeting, just to remind everyone involved that shifting the concerns from one place to another does not solve the problem. Again, the old NIMBY, though I must admit justifiable from a White Rock perspective. Aside from the danger aspect of a derail-
way. I also understand the dangers, not only of hazardous goods but of the trains themselves. My eldest son’s sister-in-law was the White Rock jogger killed last year when she collided with a BN train. However, there is an answer, much discussed perhaps but never acted upon, to reroute the BN line, not to Abbotsford but around White Rock.
There is an answer, much discussed perhaps, but never acted upon... It would be simple, realigning the tracks just south of Blaine to have them cross the border adjacent to the Pacific Highway crossing. The line there could avoid the Semiahmoo Peninsula in its entirety, and would be “at grade” just as is the present route through White Rock. Would it be expensive? Of course, but I suggest that allowing BNSF to convert the right-
of-way to beachfront cottage lots, at least along the western portion of the peninsula through what is known as Ocean Park and Crescent Beach, would more than make up the cost of railway realignment. And since, if memory serves me right, the BNSF is owned by Warren Buffet, one of the richest men on Earth and well known as one to never turn down a money-making deal. Warren and BN would benefit, as would White Rock with a substantially increased tax base from those lots, far eclipsing any revenues they may or may not get from the railway that so drastically disrupts its waterfront. Additionally, with a seamless route to the west of White Rock, the trains could travel faster, meaning even more money derived from the savings of time, and Abbotsford would be spared from more rail traffic. It is important that Abbotsford council becomes a player in any discussions relating to BN rail realignment. Done the right way, everyone can benefit. Done the wrong way, and the problem has just been shifted from one potential disaster site to another. markrushton@abbynews.com

letters Lights chase away waterfowl R e c e n t l y the City of Abbotsford installed LED lights at Mill Lake to deter the breeding of Canada geese. The lake is now almost entirely devoid of waterfowl, including buffleheads, scaups, coots, and the formerly ubiquitous mallards. As a friend of mine, who walks the lake almost daily, remarked: “I’d rather have too many geese than none at all.” Mill Lake is a natural nesting site for all kinds of waterfowl. They were here first. We’ve taken away their homes. Robert Martens Abbotsford

Abbotsford dropped the ball I attended probably the last AHL game at Abbotsford Centre, and my observations aren’t about the poor decisions made by the previous council regarding the arena and signing the deal with the Calgary Flames. I hear the “City in the Country” promoted by the city and that isn’t a truth. We may have the population to support city status but we are far from there. We had the opportunity to support the Heat and failed. Why? They are a
Calgary farm club! The AHL is the second-best hockey league in North America and we didn’t support it because we are still small town. Whether or not the process was flawed to get the team to Abbotsford isn’t the issue! We had the opportunity to step up in the sports world and dropped the ball. Are we doomed to support through taxes a white elephant of an arena? I would think that the odds of landing another major tenant
for the Centre may be long as there are communities out there that do support local teams. The sports world is a close-knit community and the news of the attendance problems in Abbotsford won’t go unnoticed when locations are scouted. Can anyone connected with the Centre explain to us taxpayers why arenas all throughout B.C. can get major naming sponsors and we can’t? Grant Schettler Abbotsford

executive director of the BC Civil Liberties Association said, “Now, the National Energy Board and the federal government have changed the rules, keeping out what people have to say. In a democracy, we should be encouraging participation, not building walls to keep people out of public decision-making.”
A
An Abbotsford man is a member of a group which launched a constitutional challenge Tuesday to the National Energy Board (NEB) review of the Kinder Morgan Trans Mountain pipeline. The motion asserts that the NEB review process unfairly restricts public participation as a result of process design, unduly rejects participant applications and refuses to hear concerns related to climate change or oil sands development. John Vissers is a 25year resident of Sumas Mountain, and his property borders the Sumas terminal that the Trans Mountain project seeks to expand. He applied for interve-
tutional challenge said in its statement of facts that Parliament amended the NEB Act in 2012, which gave the board “the authority to dramatically limit who may make submissions about a proposed project … This board now does not have to hear from anyone who is not ‘directly affected’ …” Josh Paterson, the

nor status but was “astonished” when he was denied, with no explanation provided. The $5.4-billion project would twin the 60-yearold oil pipeline that runs from northern Alberta to Burnaby, nearly tripling capacity to 890,000 barrels per day. The second 1,150-kilometre line would carry mainly diluted bitumen for export to Asia. Vissers is able to submit a letter of comment, but can’t speak at the NEB hearings scheduled for next year. The Abbotsford resident has been an intervenor during the Sumas Energy 2 discussions about 10 years ago, and he is surprised at the difference between then and now. “They listened to everyone,” he said.

A $4-million expansion at Kinghaven Treatment Centre in Abbotsford will replace older buildings on the site and increase client capacity. Construction on the expansion of the facility – located at 31250 King Rd. – began about a month ago and is expected to be complete by spring 2015. Milt Walker, executive director

Notice of Public Hearing to consider amendments to Abbotsford Zoning Bylaw, 1996
Abbotsford Council will hold a Public Hearing at 7:00 pm on May 12, 2014, in the Matsqui Centennial Auditorium, 32315 South Fraser Way, Abbotsford, B.C., under the provisions of the Local Government Act to consider the following bylaws. At the Public Hearing, all persons who believe their interest in property is affected by the proposed bylaws will be afforded a reasonable opportunity to be heard or to present written submissions respecting matters contained in the bylaws that are the subject of the hearing. The following is a synopsis of the bylaws amending the Zoning Bylaw of the City of Abbotsford, and is not deemed to be an interpretation. A copy of each bylaw and relevant background documentation may be inspected in the Planning Services Division (2nd Floor), Abbotsford City Hall, 32315 South Fraser Way, Abbotsford, B.C., on April 29, 30, May 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 12, 2014 between 8:30 am and 4:30 pm.

ect is being conducted in three phases. Phase one, scheduled for completion in August, is a new residential portion that will replace buildings on the site that were constructed in 1946. Walker said these buildings, part of the original Bethel Bible College, are in need of extensive costly repairs and will be torn down. Phase two, scheduled for completion in October, involves renovating the current residence that was built in 1981. Clients residing there will move into the new building during this phase. Walker said the new and renovated residences will enable Kinghaven to expand its client base from 58 to 64, helping to alleviate a long waiting list for those in need of treatment. The final portion of the project is the con-
struction of new offices and other amenities, due to be finished next spring. All phases of the project will complement the new George Schmidt Centre also located on the property. The centre provides second-stage housing for men wishing to continue their recovery, enabling them to stay for up to 18 months. Kinghaven Treatment Centre opened in 1970 to provide addiction recovery and treatment services to men. Walker said it is the only one in the province that provides detox, stabilization and treatment all on one site. “It gives them (the clients) a really good solid base for healthy recovery, and hopefully they become productive citizens,” he said.

The legendary band The Doobie Brothers will be in Abbotsford Oct. 26 for a concert.
Doobie Brothers tickets on sale Friday The Doobie Brothers are coming to Abbotsford Centre later this year, and tickets go on sale this Friday. The Doobies have rung up a track record that would be the envy of any band. Starting with the multi-million-selling sophomore collection Toulose Street in 1972, the band has three multi-platinum, seven platinum and 14 gold albums. Their Best of the Doobies (1976) has sold more than 11 million copies, making it a diamond record. In 2011, the band marked a new chapter. They filmed a CMT Crossroads special with superstar Luke Bryan, and appeared for the first time on the Grand Ole Opry. Their relationship with Nashville continues to unfold, with a new country-based Doobie Brothers project recorded with some of country music’s biggest stars set for release later this
year. Formed in 1969 by Pat Simmons, singersongwriter-guitarist Tom Johnston, founding drummer John Hartman, and bassist Dave Shogren, the Doobies made their mark with a run of punchy, melodic hits on Warner Bros. Records. They attained radio and chart ubiquity in the late 1970s, when the group’s expanded lineup was augmented by Michael McDonald, whose soaring lead vocals pushed the band to new commercial and critical heights. The band will play in Abbotsford on Sunday, Oct. 26. Tickets are available for purchase starting May 9 starting at 10 a.m. Tickets are $35.25 to $65.25 each, plus fees. They can be purchased at abbotsfordcentre.ca, by phone at 1-855-985-5000, or in person at the venue box office and all retail Ticketmaster locations.

gel. So when the Rebels came charging out of the gates with a 14-4 win over the Port Moody Thunder in their regular season opener last Friday at MSA Arena, Nishiyama was thrilled. “I wasn’t sure what to expect,” he admitted. “Some of these guys haven’t played in a year and a half, and it’s a whole new defence. But it was impressive, to say the least.” The Rebels led 6-4 after the first period, but out-scored the Thunder 8-0 from that juncture as three play-
ers notched six points apiece – Sean Kelly (four goals, two assists), Jordan Hernandez (two goals, four assists) and Shaun McRae (one goal, five assists). “The first period was a little shaky,” Nishiyama noted. “(Goalie) Matt Morehouse let in a couple of softies he wanted back, I know that for a fact. But after that, they didn’t score again. Our defence dominated.” The Rebels (1-0) play three times this week, including a Friday home game vs. the Langley Warriors (8 p.m., MSA Arena).

Heat extinguished by Griffins, franchise readies for move to N.Y. Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News
In one fell swoop, the Grand Rapids Griffins ended the Abbotsford Heat’s season and officially closed the book on the franchise’s fiveyear run in Abbotsford. The host Griffins fended off a third-period comeback by the Heat en route to a 5-3 victory on Friday at Van Andel Arena, thus sealing a 3-1 triumph in the best-of-five first-round playoff series. Grand Rapids captain
Jeff Hoggan had a huge night – the Hope native scored twice and assisted on Landon Ferraro’s empty-netter which sealed the deal with 13 seconds remaining. The Heat, meanwhile, got goals from Shane O’Brien, Kane Lafranchise and Markus Granlund, two assists from Max Reinhart, and a solid 31-save outing from goalie Joni Ortio in what turned out to be the last game in team history. “It was kind of a
unique night, in terms of the end of an era,” acknowledged Heat head coach Troy Ward. “It’s something where all our players will look back and say, ‘Remember when.’ “The community was a great place, and I think the players would echo that.” The Heat won’t be back next season, the City of Abbotsford having already shelled out $5.5 million to terminate the last five years of a 10-year supply fee
agreement with the NHL parent Calgary Flames. On Monday afternoon, the AHL Board of Governors approved
the relocation of the Heat to Glens Falls, N.Y. for the 2014-15 season. Defenceman Chris Breen, reflecting on the team’s playoff exit, said
the players believed they could still win after dropping the first two games vs. the Griffins. “But when you dig yourself a hole like that,
it’s really tough to climb out,” he noted. Q For coverage of the Heat’s locker clean-up day and moving process, see Friday’s Abbotsford News.

They completed the sweep with a 3-2 triumph, behind seven strong innings from pitcher Jonah Swanson. The Cards are 8-5, good for fourth in the BCPBL, and they travel to Okotoks, Alta. this week for a tournament.

In the morning, the local B.C. Premier Baseball League squad welcomed 140 age eight- and nineyear-olds to their DeLair Park diamond for their first annual “Tadpole Day,” which saw Cardinals players lead instruction sessions with teams from the Abbotsford Angels Hardball Association. In the afternoon, the Cards took centre stage, sweeping a doubleheader against the Parksville Royals. “It was a long day,” Cards coach Corey Eckstein noted with a chuckle. “But it’s important for our players to grow the game and give back.

Cascades sign four local players The University of the Fraser Valley women’s soccer team is shopping local for a large portion of its 2014 recruiting class. Cascades bench boss Rob Giesbrecht also serves as coach of the U18 Fraser Valley Football Club, which plays in the BC Soccer Premier League, and he’s signed four players from that squad – Sarah Miller, Lauren Venhola, Kris Collins and McKenzie Hildebrand. Miller, whose father Colin is the former head coach of the Abbotsford Soccer Association and the UFV women and currently helms FC Edmonton of the North American Soccer League, is a central midfielder out of Robert Bateman Secondary. She can play in either a holding role or in a more advanced role, and has developed a reputation as a fierce competitor. Yale Secondary student Venhola is comfortable playing as a central striker or in a wider role, and is an outstanding athlete with the potential to be
a formidable attacking force in the CIS. Fellow Yalean Collins is a versatile player who boasts great pace and power, and will likely com-
pete for a role as an outside back at UFV in light of her excellent passing and defensive skills. Hildebrand is an attacking player from
ESTATE PLANNING 101
Chilliwack’s Sardis Secondary who possesses an excellent work ethic. She can get behind opponents with her pace off the ball and also has the vision to dissect opponents with her passing.

Happy
Mother’s Day!
It’s Springtime! That means one very important thing. Mother’s Day is just around the corner. If you have a mom like mine, you will spend days and days trying to decide on that perfect little gift for her. The gift that tells her you love her and just how much she means to you. To top things off, if you have kids, that also means she’s a grandma and they will want to get something for her. Roses & Rutabagas: A place of respite for busy women living busy lives. We carry a wide spectrum of treasures that you will discover as you wander through our space. In Rosie’s own words, “we carry everything a girl could want!” We have free parking beside the store and much more behind so come on in and visit with us for a while.
At Tracycakes, Every Bite is an Occasion! Tracycakes Bakery Cafe is a quaint restaurant and bakery that specializes in more than 40 varieties of signature cupcakes and a scrumptious selection of homemade foods.
Let me suggest a few things. Book a tea party for grandma, mom, aunts and kids at Tracycakes Cafe. They will love being treated to fancy sandwiches, cakes, teas and lemonade. Or if it’s alone time pampering she most appreciates, how about a day at the spa? Choose SpaPure on Pauline St. or Sunsera Spa and Salon for a full pampering from head to toe. She will leave either location more relaxed than she’s felt in months. Moms always love a special gift handmade by the little ones, and The Clay Cottage Ceramic Studio or Strung Out on Beads are the perfect places to

create something spectacular she will treasure forever. If it’s something beautiful either for herself or the home that will put a spring in her step, head to Spruce Collective, Roses & Rutabagas, Mac & Mango, Gabby’s Plouteo, Blueberry Meadows Interiors or The Little White House. The choices are endless at all of these boutiques. The choices of gorgeous clothing, accessories and trinkets may just be too much for you to handle, so the option of a little gift with a gift card attached would go a long way to making mom happy also. www.downtownabbotsford.com Tina Stewart

Clinics to accept human milk donations Fraser Health has opened donor human milk collection depots in Abbotsford and Mission where mothers can provide excess milk to babies in need. Fraser Health encourages all moms to breastfeed to provide their babies with the optimal nutrition. But as some mothers are unable to fully breastfeed or produce milk, Fraser Health states that the next best choice is pasteurized donor human milk, which comes from mothers who are breastfeeding their own babies and have milk to spare. Women who have been screened can drop off their frozen donated milk at the Abbotsford Public Health Unit (34194 Marshall Road) and the Mission Public Health Unit (7298 Hurd Street). Milk donated to Fraser Health is stored and transported to the provincial milk bank at BC Women’s Hospital where it is pooled, processed and pasteurized. Most of the pasteurized milk is used to feed premature and sick babies who are at high risk for illness and infection. Breast milk provides optimal nutrition and offers immune factors that protect babies from infections and diseases. The World Health Organization recommends that no other food besides breast milk be given to babies until approximately six months of age. For more information about donating milk visit p.

She spent the last years of her life in Vulcan, AB, but was a long time resident of Calgary. She was born in Seville, Spain and lived in Barcelona, Spain and London, England as well as Abbotsford, BC, Calgary and Vulcan, AB. Angela was a much loved woman who brought joy and happiness to everyone who came into contact with her. She will be missed by everyone who knew her for her kindness and generosity of spirit and by all those who received her precious gifts of hand crocheted swan doilies. Many thanks to all the staff of the Vulcan Extendicare Unit for taking such loving care of Angela during the last years of her life and to the staff of the South Health Campus Hospital in Calgary for their care at the end.

PENN, Olive Elizabeth (ne: Higgs) Jan. 31, 1938 - April 3, 2014 Passed away with family by her side at Abbotsford Regional Hospital, in Abbotsford, BC. Olive was born in Sumas, Washington to Adora and Thomas Higgs. Her father was a farmer on Sumas Prairie & her mother was a full partner in farm work & was a devoted housewife & raised Olive, her sisters, Mabel and Christina, and her brother Stephen, in typical rustic farm-life fashion. Olive graduated from Abbotsford Senior Secondary School in 1952 and proceeded to spend her early life trail riding on her horses. She travelled to many exotic locations and after having her fill of excitement, she returned to Canada and met and married Ivan Charles Penn at a local dance in 1974, married him, and proceeded to have a daughter, Madison, in 1978. Olive worked as a lab technician at M.S.A. Hospital for over 30 years before embarking on a plethora of moves to various B.C. locations. She was a loving mother, a supportive wife and one of the most polite people you could meet. Kind to all, and careful to always be considerate of the needs of others, she managed to live a nice life raising her daughter and walking her dogs. She loved nature and took as many long walks in wooded trails as she could – and took every opportunity to observe and appreciate beautiful scenes and birds. Olive had a perpetual “green thumb” and always kept her garden alive and pristine when she had her own house. She had an uncanny ability to attract dogs, horses and other pets to her – we can only figure it must be the unconditional love they felt from her. It was quite amazing. Olive is survived by her husband, Ivan, daughter Madison, sister Mabel, her brother, Stephen, & his wife Bonnie, her deceased sister’s husband, Alan, as well as 9 nieces & nephews & 22 grand nieces & nephews. Her sister, Christina, predeceased her. Services were held on April 8th at Cascade Court. It was a beautiful service. Many thanks to all the extended family and friends who made Olive’s Memorial so special.
