Students flood UFV in its 40th year Nearly three-quarters of Valley students choose local university Alex BUTLER and Tyler OLSEN Abbotsford News

As the University of the Fraser Valley (UFV) celebrates its 40th year since its beginnings as Fraser Valley College in 1974, the institution is once again bursting with students. Eric Davis, the provost and vice-president academic at UFV, estimates that enrolment will be around 15,000, similar to last year. He said that while domestic registrations are down just over one per cent, international regis-

trations are up about eight per cent. That results in additional courses, so international registrations do not decrease the availability of classes for domestic students. While some programs have waitlists, Davis said some are still open for applications. The space capacity at UFV is still over 100 per cent, at around 110 to 115, but Davis said it’s down from previous years due to the construction of new buildings such as the student union building, slated to open in the spring.

In 2013/14, the Abbotsford campus was over capacity, with an estimate of about 128 per cent of the utilization rate for facilities. UFV has campuses and locations in Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Hope, Agassiz, Mission and in Chandigarh, India. Of the students from the Fraser Valley who go on to post-secondary education, about 70 per cent choose UFV. That local focus was reflected at Thursday’s Continued on A7

SPCA seeks donations, home for amputee dog with deformed leg Stanley’s front paw in need of expensive brace Tyler OLSEN Abbotsford News

PHOTO Abbotsford News

Stanley, a two-year-old retriever, needs a brace on his deformed remaining front paw – and a loving home.

A lovable amputee dog at the Abbotsford SPCA needs the public’s assistance to fix a deformed leg and find a home. Stanley, a two-year-old retriever cross, lost his leftfront leg after he was hit by a car at three months old. He is happy and friendly, but with his remaining front leg seriously deformed, the SPCA is worried for Stanley’s long-term health. Concerns about the leg have also deterred a half-dozen would-be owners from adopting him. The SPCA hopes to solve both problems by having a specialist build a cast and orthopedic brace for Stanley to help correct the leg and avert the early onset of crippling arthritis. “It’s going to help him adjust that bone,� said

The SPCA is hoping the public can step up to help pay for Stanley’s operation, along with medical treatment for him and other animals in need. Dunlop, who calls Stanley “an incredible dog,� hopes that addressing the leg issue will also help find a home for the three-legged pooch. “He’s wonderful with people and kids and other dogs so we want to give him a chance at a good, healthy, long life rather than a short, painful one,� she said. “He’s quiet, he’s not a yapping dog, he’s super curious.� Donations can be made at spca.bc.ca/medicalemergency or in person at 34312 Industrial Way.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here,â&#x20AC;? he said. Sciences student Steph Uittenbosch chose UFV for a similar reason. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice and close to home,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It has a good transfer program to UBC.â&#x20AC;? Beside her stood friend Andry Friesen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They have a really good nursing program,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve grown up here, my friends are here and my familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s here.â&#x20AC;? Not all new students come from such close proximity. Elsewhere on the Abbotsford campus, Arzoo Sandhu and

three friends were also getting acquainted with the university grounds â&#x20AC;&#x201C; even though they were all in their third year of study at UFV. They had spent their first two years studying at the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s India campus, which they said had amenities rarely seen in their countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s universities. UFVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s India operation â&#x20AC;&#x153;is one of the only legitimate transfer programs,â&#x20AC;? Sandhu said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It stands out over there.â&#x20AC;? Now she and her friends have come to Abbotsford to complete their education. UFV now offers 100 programs, from masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degrees, diplomas, apprenticeship and trades training, and continuing studies. A $15-million project to construct a new student centre

began last year. It is set to be finished in 2015 and is hoped to alleviate some of the space issues, though it will not address issues of class sizes. The university is expanding in other communities as well. In early August, it was announced that UFV would receive $2.1 million for training equipment for the Agriculture Centre of Excellence in Chilliwack. UFV also received government funding for an additional 194 training spaces to help reduce waitlists for trades critical to the liquefied natural gas sector and other industries. For the many students and staff who travel between UFV campuses, this year will see the continuation of daily shuttle bus services.

Ruts in road to farmland changes Tom

B.C. Views The month-long Agricultural Land Commission consultation closed Aug. 22, and the B.C. government is compiling the feedback received from a province-wide tour and invitation to comment. I can’t tell you much about the official input. The consultation sessions were by invitation only, with no media allowed, and the submissions via website are also not public. I reached Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick as he was traveling around B.C. with his camper van, conducting his own meetings with farmers. He’s not saying much either, except that a summary of the findings should be made public in September as the government considers new regulations. The aim of this exercise is to consider relaxing rules around secondary farmland uses in the Interior, Kootenay and

North regions, as well as food processing and retail sales of food and beverages on farmland. Also under consideration is allowing breweries and distilleries, as wine and cider production are now allowed, and relaxing rules to permit more off-farm products to be sold from farms. Letnick defended the 30-day summer consultation as adequate. It’s based on 11 questions developed with staff, farm groups and local government. He’s also not counting how many emails were stacked up by proponents or critics. “I’m not conducting a plebiscite,” Letnick said. “What I’m trying to do is come up with the best balance of recommendations to make to government that can hold their own based on the idea and the potential positive and negative consequences.” NDP agriculture critic Lana Popham was more forthcoming. She was invited to the formal sessions, and also won’t talk about them directly. But she’s not backing away

from her criticisms. The government is proposing to bypass the Agricultural Land Commission for several kinds of decisions, including subdivision for family use or into properties of 160 acres or more. “I think the general idea was that people trust the ALC to make that decision, and it should still go through the commission,” Popham said. “Actually the commission has been making those decisions anyway, and I think they’ve been quite fair when somebody applies.” She said farmers also aren’t sold on the notion of easing the rules for secondary businesses. “You will already find situations where there’s, let’s say a welding shop or something like that attached to somebody’s residence who lives on ALR land,” Popham said. “That sort of stuff has been allowed, but it’s always had to go through the ALC or some sort of process that’s been in place. This leaves that process out, and

Non-farm activities have a way of growing until they become the main business.

so I think that’s the problem people are having.” She noted that non-farm activities have a way of growing until they become the main business. A reader who attended the Kelowna session said even winery operators aren’t thrilled about the proposal to enlarge retail space and allow sales of wine or beer not made on site. He said “not one” participant there liked the idea of increasing industrial activity such as food processing or retailing. And he agreed with Popham that the ALC is doing a good job with subdivision applications. Popham also clarified the situation with the leased craft gin distillery on her own Vancouver Island farm. It started as a winery, and the conversion needed only local government approval because the production facility was already considered and taxed as light industrial. Victoria Gin has been a model for the government’s push to allow distilleries, breweries or meaderies on farmland. Given the B.C. Liberals’ love of liberalized liquor, I expect that change to go through. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Solution for beavers, not homeless

The initiative for the one beaver and his previous cronies all working on the dam and making a home amused me a lot (The News, Aug. 15). I noticed that city hall and other services are on-board and working for a resolution for the problems impacting the neighbourhood of the beavers – that is to say the flooding and finding a new home for the group. Thumbs up, and at a bargain price too. Maybe the homeless should take note. Get to working and learn a lesson. The Abbotsford Community Services and the 32-plus other agencies supposedly have enough personnel and money but are lacking in intel-

ligence to assist the 150 to 165 homeless here in Abbotsford. Their budget is so large it boggles almost everybody. As a frequent attendee at city hall and other community forums, I’ve observed the most energy put towards aggressive tactics, initiatives and forcing compliance through power antics. They keep on costing the taxpayers money for their conflicts and keeping their high-paying agency jobs. Full support from city hall is not happening. No need to wonder why. Just come on down to a meeting, listen and figure it out for yourself. Eileen Ohrlein

KEYNOTE SPEAKERS INCLUDE: Hon. Ed Fast, Minister of International Trade & Member of Parliament, Abbotsford

Mutual respect must continue It is more than disturbing to learn that the western half of your wonderful community is under siege by a group of young men. This type of behaviour is totally unacceptable in such a diverse and God-loving community. Historically, west Abbotsford and Matsqui have been home to a rich and diverse Christian and Sikh population that has flourished with cooperation

and mutual respect based on the ideologies that each of their religions contain. We as citizens and protectors of human rights and religions, must do everything in our power to make sure it continues for decades to come. No longer can we stand by and solely rely on our overstretched police departments, and think we are doing enough. I call on everyone, in all communities, to report this systemic

violence and prejudice at every opportunity, to aid and assist police departments in recognizing potential serious threats to citizens of Abbotsford and outlying communities, and to stop this now before innocent people get caught in various types of crossfires and someone is seriously hurt.

Bats rescued from glue trap in Abbotsford barn WE ARE MUCH MORE THAN JUST ORGANIZED.

Submitted photo

The Wildlife Rescue Association of BC issued a warning after receiving a glue trap with six struggling bats. suffering to bats and other non-target animals such as chickadees, hummingbirds and even owls,” the group said in a press release. The Abbotsford bat case is one of the worst such cases. “When I first heard that there were six bats on a sticky trap my heart just sank,” said Linda Bakker, Wildlife Rescue’s team leader of wildlife rehabilitation. “When they came in they were struggling and obviously dis-

tressed and it was just heartbreaking to see. It is just so unnecessary and I hope people see this and think twice before they put out a sticky trap where it can harm wildlife.” Members of the public who find animals on a sticky trap are urged to leave the animal in the trap, place it in a ventilated box, and deliver it to Wildlife Rescue. The facility also operates a seven-days-a-week helpline at 604-5267275.

IUOE Local 115 has a proud history of success, cooperation and growth in BC. The stunning Golden Ears Bridge, the new roof on BC Place, and the Mica and Waneta Dams are just some of the landmark projects that our members helped to create. Since 1931, we have helped build this province and many careers along with it. Happy Labour Day BC.

An animal care group is trying to save a group of bats caught in a glue trap that had been placed in a local barn. Six bats, still on the trap, were taken to the Burnaby-based Wildlife Rescue Association of BC, where workers attempted to free the struggling animals. The bodies of the creatures were smeared in a sticky goo and several had sustained injuries. Workers managed to free the bats, but one that had lost a foot while trying to escape died soon after arrival. Another sustained an untreatable wing injury was euthanized. The surviving bats were cleaned in a process taking four hours and are now recovering. Wildlife Rescue say that it regularly treats animals that inadvertently get caught in sticky traps. The glue trap from the Abbotsford barn was intended to catch flies. “The traps are indiscriminate and cause

500-townhouse proposal for Falcon Ridge area Project plans will move to public hearing Alex BUTLER Abbotsford News

A proposal to build up to 555 townhouses in the area known as Falcon Ridge on Sumas Mountain will move to public hearing after receiving first and second reading from council on Monday. The site was previously rezoned with the intent of developing mainly single family homes. The site now requires rezoning to a new comprehensive development zone to allow for the townhouse project. An original proposal, dating back to 1999, was put forward by Columbia National Investments Ltd. (CNI), but the project never went ahead. A report on the new plan from city staff says before the lots could be released for building permits, the original owner of the land encountered financial difficulties, resulting in a mortgage holder taking control of the lands. The current report cites CNI – directors Steve and Herb Dunton – as the owning company, and power of attorney is held by Romspen Mortgage Corp. The properties are on the north side of Lower Sumas Mountain Road. To the west of the site is Vicarro Ranch – the largest development proposal in Abbotsford in over a decade – covering about 383 acres in the McKee Peak Mountain and Eagle

Mountain Area, which would see the construction of about 1,400 residential units. That project has received third reading, and is awaiting final approval due to a number of rezoning conditions that must be resolved before the bylaws may be adopted. Couns. Patricia Ross and Henry Braun both expressed concerns on Monday about the current proposal. Braun said his overarching concern for the development is the safety for the “1,000-plus” people who could live in the 555 units, which would be built on what the report describes as “steep rocky terrain.” He said he would support the proposal going to public hearing, but “I think there are a number of issues this council needs to wrestle with.” A proposal to build 51 townhouses units on Estevan Court, just south of the current proposal’s border, was rejected by council in February after concerns were raised about slope stability. At that time, Coun. John Smith said that while townhouses were probably safer than single-family homes, the site should never have been zoned for development. The proposal for Falcon Ridge has undergone geotechnical site assessments and other environmental studies.

Four Abby police officers to ride in Cops for Cancer tour More than 100 cyclists on four different routes Four Abbotsford Police officers will slip into spandex, strap on their helmets and hit the road as part of the the annual Cops for Cancer cycling tours to raise awareness and money for pediatric cancer research. The Abbotsford riders are among 107 cyclists who will participate in four different tours that will visit businesses and schools from Fort St. John in the province’s north to the southernmost reaches of Vancouver Island. “For more than 15 years, communities throughout the Fraser Valley have welcomed us, hosting events that we look forward to each year,” says rider Trevor Sales, the team captain for the Tour de Valley, which takes riders from Tsawwassen to Boston Bar. “It’s hard to describe the feeling when you see the lengths people go to, welcoming and supporting the riders, because they too believe that no child should have to face cancer.” The four APD officers will be taking part in the Tour de Valley, which will start in Abbotsford Sept. 25, and return to the city on Sept. 27 and Sept. 29. The tour will conclude on Oct. 3.

The three other tours include: the Tour de Rock, which will cover Vancouver Island; the Tour de North, which will travel through northern British Columbia from Prince George to Prince Rupert; and the Tour de Coast, which will journey around Greater Vancouver and up to Powell River and Pemberton. Among the Abbotsford riders will be Const. Daryl Young, who is riding a bike bearing the name of local cancer survivor Liam Unger.

While the rides begin in September, the cyclists are already in the midst of their fundraising and training efforts. On Sunday, for example, the Tour de Valley riders embarked on a 160-kilometre ride beginning and ending in Abbotsford. “All Cops for Cancer riders take part in rigorous training – they need to learn how to pace themselves and ride in a peloton,” says Allan Mugford, Fraser Valley regional director for the Canadian Cancer Society. “But

what they can never prepare for is the emotional impact of seeing a child with cancer and the toll it takes on their entire family.” The Cops for Cancer campaign runs through September, with money raised going to fund leading edge cancer research and support programs operated by the Canadian Cancer Society like Camp Goodtimes. Find the tour and donate online at C o p s f o rc a n c e r b c . c a or at Facebook.com/ CopsforCancerBC.

Submariner’s wartime memoirs published Not the Ships recounts experiences of Frederick Sherwood

TIMBITS SOCCER

200,000 PLAYERS ONE REALLY FUN GAME BRODY AGE 6

The wartime memoirs of Canada’s most highly decorated submariner, Frederick H. Sherwood, have been co-authored by his son, Abbotsford publisher Philip Sherwood. It’s Not the Ships recounts the experiences of the late Sherwood, from the time he joined the Royal Canadian Naval Volunteer Reserve (RCNVR) in 1933 until 1946. During World War II, Sherwood served in the Royal Navy’s submarine service for five years and became the first Canadian to command an RN “boat.” It’s Not the Ships has drawn

enthusiastic reviews from Canadian submariners and naval historians. “Only a few Canadians have commanded a submarine during wartime,” explained Commodore Larry Hickey RCN (Ret’d), a former submariner. “As such, Sherwood is an important part of Canadian submarine history. “His memoir fills a void — it’s the first one ever of a wartime Canadian submarine commander, and it’s well told.” “My father often said that the war left its stamp on him,” said Philip Sherwood.

“He liked to talk about his experiences, and as he was an engaging raconteur, we eventually persuaded him to commit his story to print. “We supplemented his manuscript with material gleaned from several primary sources – his wartime correspondence, patrol and log reports from the UK Archives, photos from the Imperial War Museum and the Royal Navy Submarine Museum, and newspaper reports. “It all comes together as an engaging account of one of the trailblazers of Canada’s submarine service.”

Agri-Centre project set to support local agri-business development Corpus Management Group is pleased to announce that the Abbotsford Agri-Centre development project is proposed to appear before City Council on October 6. The project first appeared before City Council on November 4, 2013, and recently received a site alteration permit from the Government of British Columbia. The Agri-Centre project would relocate many of Abbotsford’s existing agricultural equipment dealers along the Sumas Way corridor to a centralized location more suitable for producers. Strategically located in East-Abbotsford at the intersection of Atkinson and Eldridge Road, it will support the community’s objective of letting British Columbia know that Abbotsford is open for agricultural business. The Abbotsford Agri-Centre has received widespread community support for its agricultural benefits and job creation potential. The University of the Fraser Valley commented that the “concentration of these dealerships in the centre of the most valuable food production regions would show the foresight of the City of Abbotsford in supporting its vital agricultural industry.” The Abbotsford Chamber of Commerce noted that this project “could provide a good starting point to address the agribusiness needs in the community.” The Abbotsford Agri-Centre is an opportunity for agricultural equipment dealers to efficiently serve regional farmers for the long-term as they currently face development pressures from the expansion of commercial retailers. Agriculture in Abbotsford is a 1.8 billion dollar industry supporting 11,321 local jobs. This development will keep important agricultural jobs in the community and support even further job creation opportunities.

Presentation on universal peace A presentation on universal peace will be held on Saturday, Aug. 30 at 7 p.m., at the Abbotsford Arts Centre (2329 Crescent Way). The program, entitled Universal Peace: Its Essential Foundation, according to ‘Abdu’l-Baha, Exemplar of the Baha’i Faith, includes an introduction, a choir presentation, a keynote talk, peace-building comments, socializing and

refreshments. The keynote talk by Harold Rosen will summarize and apply ‘AbdulBaha’s teaching on universal peace to Canada and Fraser Valley. Over a century ago, the

Baha’i Faith in Canada experienced a significant event, taking place at this time of year in Montreal in 1912. ‘Abdu’l-Baha – son of Baha’u’llah, the founder of the Baha’i Faith – made a historic

visit to the first Baha’i community in Canada, delivering several public addresses on universal peace. The Baha’i Faith began in Persia in the middle of the nineteenth century,

and spread to over 200 nations. Its aim is world unity – viewed as the requirement for peace, justice and prosperity for all people everywhere. highstreetfv.com

Chelsea Hotner came through in the clutch to help her fastpitch team, the White Rock Renegades, to victory at the U16 national championships in Brampton, Ont. last week. “It was very exciting,” enthused Hotner, a 16-year-old student at Rick Hansen Secondary who got her start in the game with the Abbotsford Minor Fastpitch Association and joined up with the Renegades this year. “I accomplished my goal of winning a national championship. I can’t even explain it.” Hotner’s team crushed the competition at nationals, going 7-0 in the round robin and playoff rounds en route to the final, where they met the Quebec Rebelles 98. Hotner suited up at catcher for White Rock in the gold medal match, which was an epic pitcher’s duel. Quebec broke the ice in the bottom of the fourth inning, plating one run. But in the top of the fifth, Hotner got a hit and came around to score the tying run. The Renegades added one more run in the inning, and they hung on from there to win 2-1. “There was great pitching, and both

$ teams had solid defence,” said Hotner, who finished the tourney with a stellar .444 batting average. “We just got a few clutch hits when we needed them.”

– and perhaps even province-wide – has bigger cleats to fill than Jacob Dodd. The W.J. Mouat Hawks’ senior moves into the starting tailback role recently vacated by Maleek Irons, who happens to be the most prolific rusher in the storied history of B.C. high school football. Irons racked up a mind-bending 6,175 yards and 76 rushing touchdowns on behalf of the Hawks, before graduating and moving on to the NCAA Div. 1 Ohio Bobcats. Some might find the challenge of following Irons to be daunting, but Dodd isn’t worried about the pressure – he’s excited for the opportunity. “I’m just going to go in and do my best and see what happens,” he said. “I’m just hoping I can do what (Irons) did – play my hardest and just have a really good season.” Dodd showed flashes of brilliance in his own right last season as a Grade 11 – with Irons sitting out a game against the Rutland Voodoo in October, he scored five TDs, and head coach Denis Kelly believes he’s got what it takes to carry the mail as a senior. “He’s a very good tailback,” Kelly asserted. “He’s been working out all summer long and doing all the right things, and he has a chance to play college football. “He’s a very good inside runner, and he’s deceptively fast. He’s very hard to bring down, and picks up a lot of extra yards by maintaining his balance. He’s going to surprise some people.” Dodd is among the leaders of a Hawks team which begins the season as an honourable mention in the provincial AAA rankings. Other key players include Slater McRae (slotback and defensive back), Providence Ndizeye (slotback, cornerback) and wideouts Elijah Falconer and Cole Barker. Quarterbacks Noah Falconer and Noah Dietrich are battling for playing time. Continued on A27

Panthers ranked No. 5 in AA to start season news? witness breaking

From A26

Q The Robert Bateman Timberwolves, who clash with Mouat on Sept. 5 in the nonconference opener for both teams (7:30 p.m. kickoff, Mouat Field), look at the perennial powerhouse Hawks as a role model for their AA program. “The kids look forward to it every year, because they have friends over there and they want to be known as a football powerhouse as well,” said Dan Village, who takes the T-Wolves’ headcoaching reins this season. “Hopefully in a couple years, we’ll be a powerhouse just like Mouat. That’s the goal for us.” Village, who played his CIS football at Queen’s University, is adapting elements of the Golden Gaels’ playbook for his Bateman charges. He’s got some good skill-position talent at his disposal – including QB Josh Friskie, running back Austen Zacher and receiver

Tyson Gibson – along with an offensive tackle in Chase Joseph (6’4”, 270 pounds) who is earning university looks. Village is also bullish on his team’s defensive potential. “We have a lot of speed and a lot of good athletes,” he said. Q The Abby Senior Panthers might be the best of the local AA crop this season, as they return virtually their entire roster after being comprised of predominantly Grade 11 talent last season. The current Grade 12 crew made it all the way to the provincial junior final during their Grade 10 year, fueling hopes that this could be a big year for the Panthers at the senior level. That elite crew of seniors is led by the likes of QB Jordan Fox, running back Grayson Marquardt and receivers Jordan Goheen and Madaraka Kuol. “We expect a great deal from this group,” Continued on A30

Throughout her career Tonya has worked in the Patrol Division, Targeted Policing Division, and the APD Major Crime Unit.

Tonya has recently returned to the DVU in 2014 where she continues to advocate for safe and healthy relationships.

SCHOOL START-UP As you are aware, there is uncertainty regarding the scheduled school startup on September 2nd due to the labour dispute between the provincial government and BCTF. We remain hopeful that the two parties will reach a negotiated settlement in the coming days. A decision on school opening in Abbotsford will likely not be made until Friday, August 29th to provide the maximum amount of time to hear if a settlement is achieved. There are two main possibilities: 1. If there is a settlement, our expectation is that all public schools in the Abbotsford School District will open on Tuesday, September 2nd. In this scenario, we anticipate that there may be some delays in regular instruction as course scheduling for students, particularly at the secondary level, may need to be adjusted. It is our intention to return as quickly as possible to normal school operations. 2. If there is no settlement, some or all schools in the Abbotsford School District may be behind picket lines. In this scenario, a withdrawal of service due to strike action or a lockout will again impact the school district’s ability to provide educational services for students. While schools will remain open we will not be able to offer our regular instruction as we do not anticipate that unionized staff will cross picket lines. As a result, we will again encourage parents not to send their children to school but to seek alternate childcare arrangements. We sincerely regret the inconveniences caused by this situation. Parents/guardians and students are encouraged to consult our district website for the most up to date information:

Hurricanes sparked Basketball academy tips off by young talent

Impact Hoops is running a new fall basketball training academy from September to November at Mennonite Educational Institute. This year’s academy will be for athletes in Grade 3-12 and will start on Saturday Sept. 20. The fall academy will have separate age divisions for elementary, middle and high school athletes with a focus on developing skill, athleticism and leadership. To register or for more information, visit impacthoops.ca. Register by Sept. 4 to receive a $20 early bird discount.

From A27

said assistant coach Elmore Abraham, whose team is No. 5 in the B.C. AA rankings to begin the year. “We have 18 returning seniors, very skilled players and a good line.” Q Last year’s edition of the Rick Hansen Hurricanes was a se-

nior-laden group, and after heavy grad losses, new head coach Rob Hallam acknowledged that this year is a bit of a rebuilding project for the AA squad. That said, there’s a lot of talent at the West Abby school, much of it at the younger grade levels. Running back Dylan Manocha, receiver Balraj Mangat and offensive lineman Arbaaz Gill – all Grade 10 players – were part of the Team B.C. under-16 program over the summer, while running back Devin DaCosta lends senior leadership to the squad. “We have a very young team at the senior level – we’re going to be in tough,” Hallam said. “The juniors have a lot of good athletes. “The big thing this year is, let’s get as much experience and learn as much as we can. Next year, we’ll start the season with 30 or 40 kids on the senior team. “There’s a lot of promise in the future.”

ABBOTSFORD’S ACTIVE ADULTS A local monthly guide to events, resources and services for active adults

September 2014

Live life with no regrets plans to pursue a professional career, Peary went to college, where he chose physical education as his major, in part because of the short line to register. Peary would go on to work as a school principal in Abbotsford for 28 years and serve on municipal councils for more than two decades, including one term as mayor between 2008 and 2011. GEORGE PEARY Like his hockey career, his time in politics – which saw him defeated in a hard-fought election – ended in a less-than-ideal manner. But Peary says he has no regrets. “It’s trite but it’s GOLDEN SERVICE FOR THE true, when one GOLDEN GENERATION door closes, another door opens.” For Peary, that door opened onto a whole new part of the world. Prior to his election, Peary had been working 604-309-0540 as an instructor at John@JohnCorrie.Com the University of www.JohnCorrie.com the Fraser Valley. After his election LITTLE OAK REALTY loss, he was asked to teach at UFV’s FREE EVALUATIONS CALL JOHN

With a decent pension and a lifetime of public service behind him, George Peary doesn’t have to bike 11 kilometres through the rain to work. But the 73-year-old Peary has never been comfortable with inaction. “I believe that more people die of retirement than work,” he said. As the teenage captain of the Brandon Wheat Kings, Peary’s job was to patrol the junior hockey club’s blue line and knock people over. After an eye injury derailed his

That led to an incredible new experience living in another nation and culture and a return to the principal’s office, after Peary was asked to become principal of Dasmesh Punjabi School back in Abbotsford. Peary had never worked in an independent school or one with elementary-school aged students.

Now, at Dasmesh, a kindergarten-to-Grade 12 school, he is doing both. “I’m actually taller than a few of my students, which is a treat,” said Peary, who stands five-foot-seven “on a good day.” Peary is fit and active, biking to work each day. And the long-time educator – who thinks his time in Abbotsford’s schools will likely be

his greatest legacy – has no plans to slip into retirement. “As long as I’m healthy and making a contribution, I’ll stay here,” he said. “From my perspective, life is full of opportunities. You’re not finished when you’re defeated. You’re finished when you quit. “I want to get the best out of every day. I want to live with no regrets.”

Treasures received while working with the elderly For the past several months, I have invited those who work or volunteer with the elderly to participate in video interviews about their experiences. I have been deeply touched by the grace and kindness of those I Sharon Simpson interviewed. I interviewed housekeepers, dietary staff, maintenance workers, CEO’s and volunteers. One question that I asked in every interview was, “How has working with seniors altered your perspective on life?” Here’s what I learned: I’m not afraid of my own future. Peace. This was true of everyone who worked in and around the elderly. I was surprised to hear that people who see the very worst in terms of dementia and care requirements are un-afraid to one day require care themselves. For most of us, there is something terrifying about losing control of your life, your hygiene and your mind. The lack of anxiety in those who work daily with the elderly was clearly a gift of peace for the future. It is a way of keeping the memory of my grandparents alive. Honour. About one-third of the people who were interviewed referenced their own relationship to their grandparents. These people found that the value of their grandparent(s) and the loss of those cherished relationships – through distance or death – was the catalyst to serving the elderly. For some, their relationships with their grandparents were only in childhood, but had an enduring effect all the way through their adult years. I’ve learned how to grateful for what I have. Contentment.

Serving the elderly, listening to their stories, hearing about life in “the old days” and seeing how fragile we all are - these are the tools that gave individuals the perspective about what is important and enabled them to enter into thankfulness and contentment in their own lives.

We bring our hear t to your home

I can make a difference in a stranger’s life. Meaning. There are times when a stranger can get closer to an elderly person than their own family members. This can be the case when the senior’s personality and character is dramatically altered through dementia or chronic illness. It was

deeply meaningful to these individuals that they could “take the person just as they are” without the grief of the person they “used to be” and provide loving care. I am making new friends – who are old. Friendship. An unexpected side benefit of working and volunteering with the elderly is that friendships are formed. From the outside, this seems impossible – especially when dementia and other conditions complicate the relationship. The bonus of a give and take friendship seemed to surprise everyone who talked about it – as though they would serve the elderly without this extra gift, but having it was an unexpected treasure. I am fulfilled. Purpose. From housekeepers to dietary staff to maintenance staff to nurses, I heard over and over and over again that working with seniors yields a type of fulfillment that is precious. Tears flowed as individuals described how serving a meal, mowing a lawn or cleaning a toilet has been transformed from a task into life calling. There are many ways that God places His Kingdom and His heart into our hearts – and one of those ways is when we open our lives to the vulnerable and those who need our care. I am reminded of Henri Nowen who left a life of academia to care for a young man with special needs. He says, “You don’t think your way into a new kind of living. You live your way into a new kind of thinking.” When you spend time with the elderly, with your heart wide open to God’s Kingdom, you will not be disappointed in the treasures that you gain. Sharon Simpson is the Director of Communications and Marketing at Menno Place, a senior’s campus-ofcare located in Abbotsford.

Nutrition and aging go hand-in-hand Nutrition is important for people of all ages, but it’s especially important for men and women over the age of 50, who can dramatically improve their quality of life by eating a well-balanced diet filled with vitamins and nutrients. Though that may seem like common sense, research has shown that men and women in this age group, who are often referred to as “Baby Boomers,” are not necessarily as healthy as they may seem. While the baby boomer generation, which is generally regarded as those people born between 1946 and 1964, boasts longer life expectancies than any generation that came before them, some of that can likely be chalked up to advancements in medical care, including a booming pharmaceutical industry that seemingly has an antidote to every ailment. But a 2013 study from researchers at the West Virginia University School of Medicine found that baby boomers are less healthy than the generation that immediately preceded them, tending to be more likely to have higher levels of hypertension, diabetes and high cholesterol. While that news might be sobering, it’s never too late for men and women over 50 to start eating healthier diets, which can reduce their risk of a wide range of ailments, including heart disease, stroke and osteoporosis.

The following are a few ways men and women over 50 can alter their diets so their bodies are getting what they need to live long and healthy lives well into their golden years. As is always the case, men and women should discuss any potential changes to their diets with their physicians to ensure the changes will be both effective and healthy. Q Balance your diet. Kids hear of the benefits of a balanced diet seemingly from the moment they enter a classroom for the first time, but many adults fail to heed that basic advice as they get further and further away from kindergarten. When changing your diet, be sure to include plenty of protein and carbohydrates. Protein maintains and rebuilds muscles, which is especially important for aging men and women who might find themselves unable to keep up with the physical demands of everyday life as well as they used to. Including ample low-fat protein, which can be found in fish, eggs and low-fat dairy among other foods, will aid in muscle recovery, benefiting aging athletes as well as

those men and women over 50 who recently started exercising as a means to regaining their physical fitness. A diet lacking in sufficient protein can contribute to muscle deterioration, arthritis and even organ failure, so it’s important for men and women to prioritize including protein in their diets. Q Don’t denounce dairy. Dairy is a great source of calcium, which promotes strong bones and teeth. Men and women over the age of 50 want their bones to be as strong as possi-

ble because aging is one of the strongest risk factors for osteoporosis, a potentially debilitating medical condition in which loss of tissue causes bones to become brittle and fragile. Vitamin D is necessary to effectively

Starting your second act As exciting as it can be to pursue a new career, men and women over 50 know that such a decision is not without risk. While younger professionals with few obligations can often handle bumps in the road on their way to a second career, older professionals making a similar move often must consider the potential effects such a pursuit might have on their families, finances and futures, including their retirements. But as difficult as it may seem to pursue a second career after your fiftieth birthday, there are steps men and women over 50 can take when pursuing a new career to ensure their second act is as successful as the first. Q Decide what you want, and not just what you want to do. The desire to pursue a second career no doubt stems from more than just dissatisfaction with a current profession. Many people switch jobs or even careers because they find their current careers too demanding, leaving little time for family or hobbies that have nothing to do with work. If what you really want is more time at home or more time to pursue a particular hobby, then keep this in mind when looking for a second career, and make sure that career won’t demand too much of your time. For example, if your goal in finding a new career is to get more work-life balance, then starting your own business, which can require long hours at the outset and even after the

business has established itself, might not be for you. But if what you want is a more challenging career and to be your own boss, then you will likely find the cost of achieving that goal, even if that cost is more demands on your time, is worth it. Q Assess your skill set. Professionals over 50 have lots to offer, but it’s still important for such men and women to make an honest assessment of their skill set and find a career in which those skills are transferable. Some men and women might want to pursue a second career that will make little to no use of their skill set, and that’s perfectly alright. But extra schooling might be necessary in such situations, and going back to school oftentimes requires a considerable commitment of both time and money. For those who simply want to put their existing skills to use in a different field or environment, assess those skills and look for lines of work in which they figure to be especially valuable. If there are any particular aspects of your current job that you want to avoid in the future, consider that when assessing your skills and choosing a second career. Q Make a trial run. Nowhere does it say that professionals can’t take a trial run at a second career while still fully engaged in their first career. In fact, testing the waters before you jump in is a good way to gauge your interest in a potential sec-

ond career and how well your skillset applies to that field. A trial run, which can be conducted by volunteering with a nonprofit organization or through a part-time job or simply offering your services to a company free of charge in exchange for a chance to learn how the business operates, can shed light on the inner workings of a particular industry, showing you how things work behind the curtain. Testing the waters may reaffirm your belief that a certain line of work is for you, or it might send you back to the drawing board. Either way, it’s valuable experience that may reassure you that whatever decision you ultimately make is the right one. Q Don’t go it alone. Switching careers after 50 carries some risk, but it’s certainly a risk that many before you have been willing to take. If you know any people, be it a friend, family member or former or even current colleague, who has reinvented themselves professionally, then speak with these people and ask for any advice they might have. If you know you want out of your current career but aren’t quite sure of what you want to do next, those who have faced a similar fork in the road may be able to help you narrow down your options. Making a career change after 50 can be a risky yet ultimately rewarding move, especially for those men and women who take a thoughtful approach to finding their second careers.

Bond between grandparents and grandkids benefits both What used to be the â&#x20AC;&#x153;golden yearsâ&#x20AC;? of life for seniors is now turning into any opportunity to spend even more time with their youngest family members. Nowadays, a growing number of grandparents are called on to provide child care for their grandkids, many of whom are growing up in two-income households. Others are helping to raise grandkids while providing financial assistance for adult children who may not be able to live on their own. This trend has been corroborated in a few recent studies. Information from the Pew Research Center showed 7.7 million children in the United States were living in the

same household as one of their grandparents in 2011. A University of Chicago analysis of a decade of data based on interviews with 13,614 grandparents, ages 50 and older, found that 61 percent of grandparents provided at least 50 hours of care for their grandchildren during any given year between 1998 and 2008. And an April 2012 study for the MetLife Mature Market Institute and the nonprofit Generations United, an intergenerational policy group, found that 74 percent of respondents provided weekly child care or babysitting service for grandkids. Grandparents often cite helping

their own children financially as well as staying in touch with grandchildren as motivating factors behind providing care. According to Generations United, staying in touch with grandkids can give seniors a feeling of self-worth and improve their overall health. When spending so much time together, grandparents may develop special relationships with their grandchildren, who may benefit from the knowledge and wisdom offered by their elders. The following are some lessons grandparents can share with youngsters. Q Empathy: By sharing stories of how things were when they were

younger, when opportunities may have been more scarce, grandparents can help teach grandchildren empathy. Grandchildren may learn to be grateful for the things they have and the people around them, rather than taking what they have for granted. Q Family history: Grandparents can tell grandchildren about family members, including youngstersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; own parents, and shed light on the generations that came before them. Looking through photos or watching old movies can provide the avenue by which to start conversations about family history and give children opportunities to ask questions.

Q Interests: Children may be excited about learning new skills or hobbies taught to them by their grandparents. Anything from gardening to woodworking can be shared. Q Respect: Children who grow up respecting their grandparents may have an increased tendency to respect authority figures outside their homes, which may help kids grow up to be more courteous and kind. Grandchildren also offer benefits to their grandparents. Companionship, new experiences and conversation can help keep grandparentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; minds sharp and bodies active well into their golden years.

SPCA constables train on farms

Session on eye condition

Program brings farmers and SPCA inspectors together

The B.C. Farm Animal Care Council (BCFACC) and the B.C. Society of Prevention of Cruelty to Animals will team up again this fall to help train constables tasked with upholding animal cruelty and care laws. This spring, the BCFACC organized its first livestock and poultry welfare assessment training course. More than a dozen SPCA special provincial constables from around the province attended the five-day course, which consisted of classroom sessions and technical reviews at seven volunteering Fraser Valley Farms.

This will allow our special constables to deal more effectively with any animal cruelty issues on farms.” This fall will see another group of BC SPCA inspectors and special provincial constables offered the training, which is supported by both the federal and provincial governments.

older): The Honda Fit is a small, but taller, 4-door hatchback that was introduced for the 2007 model year and came in DX, LX and Sport trim levels. Its seats can be reconfigured in an amazing variety of ways and there’s even a couch/ bed recliner position. The 2009 model was a second generation redesign with a more powerful 117 horsepower (up from 109-horsepower) 1.5-litre engine that’s mated to either a five-speed manual transmission or optional five-speed automatic. In the Sport edition, this automatic also comes with paddle shift gear selection at the steering wheel. Fuel consumption (1.5L/ FWD): 7.1/5.5 L/100 km (city/highway) Jeep Patriot (2010 or older): The Patriot could also be called “Jeep Light”, as it’s an affordable, compact yet capable SUV/ wagon that’s surprisingly fuel-efficient.

both front-drive and fourwheel-drive configurations, Jeep launched Patriot for the 2007 model year and it’s a good match for an active lifestyle of a young person that enjoys the outdoors. Patriot came in Sport, North and Limited trim levels and the base engine is a 2.0-litre that can produce 158-horsepower and 2.4-litre that can produce 172 horsepower is the upgrade. The transmissions offered were a 5-speed manual transmission or a fuel-efficient CVT (continuously variable transmission) automatic. If serious 4-wheeling is contemplated look for models with a trail-rated Freedom II off-road package that adds protective skid plates, etc. The down-side is increased weight and higher fuel consumption. Fuel consumption (2.0L/ FWD): 8.9/6.9 L/100 km (city/highway)

(2.4L/4WD): 9.9/8.2 L/100 km (city/highway) Nissan Versa (2011 or older): The Nissan Versa may look small on the outside, but this four-door sedan or hatchback has an amazing amount of space on the inside. The extra head and leg room provided make it a very good match for a taller or bigger than average young person. Versa offers seating for four (squeeze five) full-sized adults and extra-large rear passenger doors also make getting in or out easier. The lower-priced sedan comes with a 1.6-litre (107-horsepower) engine and a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic. The hatchback comes with a 1.8-litre (122-horsepower) engine and a 6-speed manual, 4-speed automatic or a CVT automatic. Prior to 2010, a base Versa didn’t come with ABS (anti-lock braking system), and electronic stability control wasn’t even offered as an option. Its electronic-assist steering has an extra-light feel and it can turn on a (10.4 m) dime, making Versa an easy vehicle to park. Fuel consumption (1.6L/ FWD): 7.7/5.8 L/100 km (city/highway – 5 Manual) Fuel consumption (1.8L/ FWD): 8.5/6.2 L/100 km (city/highway – 4 Automatic) Fuel consumption (1.8L/ FWD): 7.3/5.8 L/100 km (city/highway - CVT) Mazda3 (2009 or older): The first generation Mazda3 (2004 to 2009) set a new performance standard in the economy car segment.

Ford Transit Connects office to wheels

by Ian Harwood

The 2014 Ford Transit Connect is a multi-purpose cargo van that could be a great addition to any size of business.

Looks:

The Transit Connect looks small, but with 3,670 litres of cargo volume and rear doors that open 180 degrees (optional 255 degrees) there is lots of room for people and luggage. The cargo van version is available with no side windows in the sliding side doors and privacy glass in the rear doors. You can also order it with no side or rear windows. It also lends itself to becoming an office on wheels. Ford Work Solutions is a system that runs Windows CE 6.0 designed to access an office workstation computer remotely to download customer information or view a work order or delivery invoice. You can send and receive text messages. The Navigation screen pinpoints your delivery locations and the system allows hands-free calling via the Bluetooth. The indash computer tracks your tools through a program

Just like most cargo vans of today, the cab has the features once reserved for cars an AM/FM radio with a bonus CD player and audio input jack. Available SYNC system to make hands free calls, rear view mirror backup camera, reverse sensing system, forward sensing system, and a 4.2-inch productivity screen that keeps you informed on fuel economy numbers as well as towing information. When you open the split rear doors, you get a true sense of this van’s functionality. The cargo areas floor to ceiling height is 150 centimeters and the width is 121 cm between the wheel wells. The load length is 184 cm and additional access is offered via the dual sliding doors. The cargo payload is an incredible 726

kilograms, more than some full-size pickup trucks. Optional second row, three passengers, split folding 60/40 cloth bench seat, and optional third row two passenger seating.

Safety first: Standard front and side air bags will keep you safe in the event of a collision. Four-wheel anti-lock brakes and a tire pressure-monitoring system are standard. For security, Ford has developed a locking latch shielded door lock system to help keep your contents safe.

Power: This vehicle is powered by a Duratec 2.5-litre four-cylinder, mated to a six-speed select shift automatic transmission. It puts out 169 horsepower and 171 lb ft of torque. There is also a 1.6L EcoBoost I-4 engine available with 178 horsepower

and 184 lb. ft. of torque.

Roadworthy: While driving this Ford Transit Connect, you feel like you’re driving a 2WD Ford Ranger. You’re able to manouevre around vehicles in tight parking lots and park in small parking spots, the only difference is you have a walk in cargo box on the back. This van would be perfect to convert into a special purpose van; it would be easy to add a wheelchair ramp or a lift without having to do too much modification.

Verdict: Although this van has been available in the UK for many years, it has only been available in North American since 2011. The popularity of the Transit has increased substantially its introduction thanks to its versatility and size. It is here to stay. ian.harwood@drivewaybc.ca

PETERS Paul Paul passed away peacefully in Penticton with his family at his side August 23, 2014. He eagerly came into the world on March 16, 1968 at MSA Hospital in Abbotsford, BC. Paul is the loving son of Art and Donna Peters and eldest brother to Scott (Tiffany) and Troy (Tonya) Peters also of Abbotsford. He graduated from WJ Mouat in 1986 and throughout his school aged years demonstrated a passion for wrestling and baseball. Growing up in Abbotsford, Paul and his family enjoyed many outdoor activities and camping adventures together, and eventually with the guidance of his father, Art, he became an avid huntsman and fisherman. In 1993 Paul was blessed with his first born son Kyle, and shortly thereafter, in 1994, he proudly welcomed his second son Sean. Paul relocated to Penticton in 1994 and soon became a valued person in the community, forming many relationships and friendships.

Lamarre, Marilyn Risko

Late of Abbotsford, BC, Marilyn Risko Lamarre’s soul transitioned from her cancer-ridden body May 24, 2014. Marilyn was predeceased by her mother, Helen Boncek Risko, her father, Michael Risko, her sister Michele Risko Hampton, grandparents, aunts, and uncles. She is survived by her husband, Paul, daughter, Kelly Lamarre Doherty (Paul), Somerset, UK, grandsons Julian and Harrison, her son,Thomas Gregory of Burnaby, and numerous cousins in Colorado, Florida, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Texas. Although late in life, Marilyn was thrilled at being a devoted Granny. Her chagrin was the distance between Abbotsford and the UK. Marilyn was born in Upper Darby, PA, August 20, 1938. A graduate of Converse College, Spartanburg, SC, she taught High School in Pickens, SC. She was granted an M.A. in French at the University of Pennsylvania (1963). She taught at Clemson University prior to enrolling in a doctoral program in Comparative Literature at the University of Washington. She and her future husband, Paul, were

graduate teaching assistants at UW. Marilyn and Paul were married in Pickens, SC August 10, 1968. They lived in Vancouver for a short period of time before moving to West Vancouver. Marilyn was a charter faculty member of Capilano College in the Counseling Department. Following completion of SFU’s PDP program, Marilyn taught first grade French Immersion, in Mission, BC, for a number of years before returning to teach high school French at Hatzic Secondary, until she retired. She was called affectionately as Madame Lamarre, or simply, Madame by her students. She was a talented and dedicated teacher. By the time Marilyn was diagnosed with small cell carcinoma, it had metastasized. She refused heroic measures and hospitalization. She opted for Home Palliative Care. Marilyn handled her situation with dignity and equanimity. Paul and Kelly were with her as she took her last breath. Donations in her memory may be made to the Abbotsford Holmberg House Hospice. Alternatively, to honor Marilyn’s love of learning and love of information, there will be an Open House at the family home, September 21, 2014 from 1 to 4 PM. To honour her love of reading, please bring a first grade, pleasure reading book, in French, as a donation to the French Immersion program in her memory. Check the memorial at www.hendersonsabbotsfordfunerals.com for further information. Friends, family, and former students are encouraged to sign the permanent digital guest book, upload comments and anecdotes, or add photos and music.

MOODY

OLIVE (NEE MATHERS) Olive Moody, nee Mathers, the last surviving child of Straiton pioneers, Dave and Jessie Mathers passed away peacefully July 17 at the age of 92 after a short stay in Maple Ridge General Hospital. She was predeceased by her husband, Maurice Moody, her parents, and siblings Grace (Cliff MacKenzie), Charlie, Art (Eda), Bob, Don (Betty) and Jessie (Herm Keys). She leaves behind three sons, Donald (Donna) of Nanaimo and their family: Jason (Leslie) of Olds Alberta; Ryan (Erin) of Nanaimo, and Sigurlin (Glenn) of Nanoose; Douglas (Bonnie) of Walnut Grove and their family: Alanna, Ken and Paul; and Alan (Louise) of Maple Ridge and their family: Shawn, David (Lisa) and Sarah (Jody) all of the Fraser Valley; nine grandchildren; nine great grandchildren and a large extended family. Olive was the middle girl in the family, born at home at “The Upper Store” in Kilgard/Straiton on September 19, 1921. The store was strategically placed close to Barrowtown where Sumas Lake was being reclaimed and the busy centre where the Sumas First Nation shared their land with the clay company and it’s company village. The family moved higher up the mountain to a larger property after the lake was drained. Olive grew up on the family farm (now Mathers Way), attending school at Straiton Elementary and Phillip Sheffield High School. All the Mathers were involved in the war effort – on the front lines, in essential industry or defending the home front. After WWII broke out, Olive worked first as an au pair for the family of an army colonel in Chemainus and later moved to New Westminster and worked on Annacis Island in a PBY coastal patrol plane repair factory. She worked as an expediter at the plant. It was here that Olive met many of her lifetime friends. Olive married Maurice Moody of Port Kells in 1947 and they lived in Maple Ridge for over fifty years. Maurice had served in the 13th Field Regiment, Royal Canadian Artillery and landed on Juno Beach on D Day. After the war he was actively involved in the Royal Canadian Legion. Olive proudly served as a Ladies Auxiliary member of the Royal Canadian Legion, Maple Ridge Branch for many years. She was also a volunteer for Maple Ridge Hospital store and as a wolf cub master (Akela) for many years. In 1958 she was instrumental in forming the1st Maple Ridge Cub Pack at Saint John The Divine Anglican Church. She went on to receive her Gilwell training certificate and was a member of the 31st Baden-Powell Guild in Maple Ridge. In the early years her main focus was being a stay at home wife and mother, raising three boys. The family was very close. Many weekends were spent visiting “up the hill” (Sumas Mountain) where invariably, card games would be played. She loved playing crib. Her mother had a tablecloth embroidered with all the sibling’s and spouse’s names so beginning the card game could be expedited. Everyone knew their seat! She loved family fishing trips to Loon Lake and camping. Olive and Maurice also made trips to the prairies visiting family and friends and one Alaska trip with Art and Eda Mathers. She enjoyed travelling. She and Maurice visited family in Europe on two trips overseas and with son, Don, visited the Netherlands and Belgium for the 60th anniversary of D-Day ceremonies. Her sense of humour was an enduring quality - always laughing, joking and smiling right up to the end. There was a sparkle of love in her eyes whenever family visited and on special days with her sons, their wives, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Many of her later years were spent at Willow Manor in Maple Ridge where she was known as the Wii bowling champion! Her support for family and friends touched hearts and brightened lives. There will be a memorial tea at Straiton Community Hall, 4698 Sumas Mountain Road in Abbotsford, on Friday, September 5th from 1 – 3pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in her memory to the Maple Ridge Hospital Foundation.
