District seeks $58M for school construction Greg Knill

Chilliwack Progress The Chilliwack School District has put a price tag on the construction it says is necessary to keep pace with the district’s growing enrolment.

It’s asking the province for close to $40 million over the next two years, and another $18 million in the following three, We have very to expand existing real and very six schools and immediate build two more. enrollment The figures, pressures in all contained in the district’s of those schools five-year capital plan, flesh ~ Maureen out the long range plan the Carradice school board approved last month.

That plan called for the construction of two new schools to accommodate development plans in Chilliwack’s Eastern Hillsides district, as well as additions to Evans elementary, Sardis elementary, Watson elementary, Promontory Heights elementary, Sardis secondary and G.W. Graham middle/secondary.

The five-year plan approved unanimously by trustees Tuesday evening calls for an aggressive construction schedule in the first year to address not only current overcrowding, but additional enrollment as new homes are built.

Said district secretary treasurer Maureen Carradice: “The reality of our situation is we have very real and very immediate enrollment pressures in all of those schools.”

Chilliwack to open Chilliwack Chances Jennifer Feinberg The Progress

It’s somehow fitting.

Iconic Canadian band Chilliwack will be rocking the house Nov. 2-3 in Chilliwack for the grand opening of Chilliwack Chances community gaming centre.

Lead singer and guitarist Bill Henderson and the boys will perform in the dining area of the brand-new gaming facility on both nights.

“We thought having Chilliwack would be appropriate for the opening,” Howard Blank, vice president of Great Canadian Gaming told The Progress.

“Not only is the name greatly

symbolic, but also their music truly hits every demographic in Chilliwack.”

Most of band’s hits were in the ‘70s and ‘80s, which was their heyday, like ‘My Girl’ (Gone Gone Gone), ‘Whatcha Gonna Do,’ or ‘Fly At Night’ or ‘Baby Blue.’ Many remember the licks of ‘Crazy Talk’ and ‘Lonesome Mary,’ too.

Singer-songwriter Bill Henderson is from Vancouver, not from Chilliwack, as some would assume.

Henderson’s been quoted nonetheless in past interviews saying he’s proud of the cultural heritage of the name, which has roots in the halq’meylem language of the Sto:lo.

It’s a place name referring to

the Chilliwack, or Chil-KWAYuhk tribe; sometimes defined as a Coast Salish term meaning “going back up” as in upriver from the mouth of the river, or “quieter at the head.”

Here’s what Rolling Stone had to say, according to the Wiki entry: “At their best, Chilliwack was the finest Canadian rock band, outrocking BTO and outwriting Burton Cummings. But a lack of consistency kept it from international success.”

Whatever.

The Band, and Henderson, 67, with his busy solo career and other musical projects, keep bringing it — consistently.

But whether it was the fans listening to the tunes on the hit radio, or their par-

ents, the band’s catchy sound has become integral “to our Canadian Culture,” said Blank.

“What a perfect opportunity,” he said.

Henderson and the band, are friends, he added, and have previously performed New Year’s Eve at The River Rock Casino, so it made sense to book them in this case, he said.

“We’re offering the show in our restaurant area,” he said.

That means the audience has to order something to eat to be served a drink, since it’s a food primary licence.

“We hope we’ll be able to accommodate as many people as possible that opening weekend. And not just people Continued: CHANCES/ p6

Funding request sparks ‘healthy’ debate over district’s role Greg Knill

The Progress The Chilliwack school district will contribute $15,000 to help the Chilliwack Hospital and Health Care Foundation hire a co-ordinator to implement a plan aimed at encouraging children to live healthier lifestyles.

Donna Dixon, director of community relations for the foundation, had hoped the district would match a commitment made by the City of Chilliwack and fund the position for three years. But faced with several trustees who argued the request was outside the district’s mandate, Dixon had to settle for a one-year commitment, with a promise to review the request during budget discussions next year.

Dixon, who briefed trustees at Tuesday’s board meeting, said the coordinator is key to a comprehensive community effort to battle childhood obesity and promote better health.

“Our community is currently facing an epidemic of children with unhealthy lifestyles that impacts on their ability to learn, their social development, and their risk of serious chronic disease,” she said.

The CHHCF was created with the mandate to improve community health, she said. Its major initiative for 2013 is the implementation of a program called “Sustainable Childhood Obesity Prevention through Community Engagement,” or SCOPE. The program was developed by the BC Children’s Hospital and piloted in Abbotsford and Prince

George last year.

Funding for the coordinator position would be shared by the school district, City of Chilliwack, and other partners in the community like the Rotary Children’s Foundation and local physicians.

“There is unending community support for this,” said Dixon, “and this is your opportunity to be part of it.”

Not all trustees were convinced.

Trustee Sylvia Dyck said the request was outside the bounds of what a school district should be funding. “There is absolutely no way I can support giving $15,000 to anyone who is not part of the education of children,” she said. “Money is not available,” Dyck added, pointing out the district approved a deficit budget last year.

She also questioned the urgency of the request and the lack of financial information about the CHHCF. Said Dyck: “I think that’s reprehensible and I think it’s bad business.”

Trustee Heather Maahs agreed.

She said everyone wants to find ways to help young people succeed.

“Ours has to be educating children.”

But Trustee Barry Neufeld and Walt Krahn argued that children cannot succeed in school if they are not healthy.

The debate followed an earlier discussion over a motion to ask school district staff to “provide information on breakfast, snacks and lunch programs within the Chilliwack School District” That motion, which eventually passed, also drew fire from Dyck and Maahs, who said it blurred the

school district’s education mandate.

“This is a distraction,” said Dyck.

Neufeld argued, however, that understanding what children eat is an important step toward improving their eating habits and ultimately improving their school performance.

“If they don’t eat properly, they can’t learn,” he said.

That argument was echoed in the discussion about the co-ordinator position. Board chair Louise Piper said the district had the opportunity to “take a risk” and show some leadership.

“I just think this is absolutely the right thing to do.”

The motion – amended by trustee Doug Mckay to a one-year commitment – was passed, with trustees Maahs, Dyck and Martha Wiens opposed.

Parents helping parents Eric Welsh

The Progress Amanda Todd’s tragic suicide death has proven once again how fragile and precious life is.

It has also caused parents province-wide to pause, reflect and ask themselves a lot of tough questions. Would I know if my child were having problems, dealing with depression or bullying? Would I see the signs? Do I talk to my child enough? How am I supposed to talk to a son or daughter who barely says three words to me all day?

The first thing parents need to know is that they aren’t alone.

The second thing they need to know is that there is help available.

Steve Anderson, a psychology teacher at Chilliwack secondary school, is helping to launch a series of sessions that will provide the latest in parenting information, and a venue for parents to meet and discuss their mutual issues.

“A number of us co-educators had been sitting around talking about the things we experience with people’s kids, and while we all love them dearly, we also recognize that a lot of kids arrive in the education system, across the grade levels, with a lot of baggage,” Anderson explained. “That led us to discuss some of the obstacles and trials that we face or faced as parents, things that we did wrong that we wished we hadn’t done. All that led to some great conversation.”

A parent of four and grandfather of five, Anderson saw the value in extending the conversation into the community — providing that forum once a month, for an hour-and-a-half on a Thursday night, for parents to share, compare and learn.

Chilliwack secondary teacher, Steve Anderson, has organized a number of free parenting workshops focussing on how to understand, read, and help children and teens. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

“There’s cutting-edge well-researched information out there, a lot of stuff that I bet you don’t know,” Anderson said. “And I bet that if you watched a 15-20 minute piece, you’d be saying, ‘Get out of town!’ And if you knew it had the potential to change some outcomes, you’d probably incorporate it, wouldn’t you?”

At the first session, held prior to the Amanda Todd suicide, the conversation centered around how kids learn and how their brains file information.

Anderson’s example was a 16-minute YouTube video by Dr. Dmitri Christakis, a pediatrician studying the effects of over-stimulation on the developing brain. Testing data showed that children who watched too much TV in their first three years of life had a greater chance of experiencing attention difficulties in their school-age years. Conversely, children who received more cognitive stimulation before the age of three (singing, reading, trips to museums and such) had a reduced chance of experiencing attention difficulties.

Good info for parents of younger kids.

But for parents of older children and specifically teenagers, the big question has little to do with TV. It’s “How do I talk to my kid?”

“We had a parent at that first session who said, ‘I do not talk to my daughter anymore.

She moved away, lives with her grandparents and we don’t communicate. She won’t talk to me,’” Anderson said. “Now that’s a situation that’s obviously gone well beyond where it should have. But we talked about some ways to maybe open a dialogue with that particular teenager, an actual strategy that could work.”

The sessions are held in space provided by Broadway Church, thought Anderson is quick to say religion doesn’t influence the content provided.

Anderson is equally quick to caution that these are no-judgement sessions.

“It’s not, ‘You’re doing this wrong, wrong, wrong,’ because we all know that we’ve made mistakes and we’re making mistakes,” he said.

“We’re just presenting some information parents may not be aware of. If they can use it,

rock and roll. If not, that’s their choice, but nobody’s going to be there saying, ‘You’re doing a bad job.’”

As the old saying goes, it takes a village to raise a child.

In an age of rampant technology and reduced communication, Anderson thinks the village is broken.

“Nobody’s having coffee at the neighbor’s house anymore, talking about their kids,” he lamented. “Nobody wants to say, ‘I’m having trouble with my child. What do I do?’ So we just carry on, and a lot of parents end up thinking they’re the only ones. Everyone’s facing the same problems, but no one talks about it. So we’re thinking, maybe we can have some village time over here.”

The current plan is to have another session on Nov. 22 (6:30 to 8 p.m.) and take December off, although Anderson is already taking calls from parents who want more sessions.

Student actor Alycia Duncan, 17, said being involved with the theatrical project has been “completely mindblowing” for the past two years.

“The act of remembering what these people went through made me more aware of how grateful I am for the life that I have because others made sacrifices.

“They all had families, brothers, sisters, wives and children, but they left them all behind for the greater good.

“It’s inspiring because it shows that people can be unselfish and community minded.”

Rehearsals on the school stage are one thing, says Duncan.

But when the 10-member cast of high school students performs those impassioned scenes, plucked from the veterans’ own experiences, in the Masonic Hall for the veterans — everyone just loses it.

Project from page 4

“Everyone has a meltdown and ends up crying.

The atmosphere in the room is incredible. It’s like everyone is really present in the moment, as we show the veterans that we will remember.”

The focus on Canadian Peacekeepers in the third script brings a more modern approach, that resonates even deeper for the students actors, said Duncan.

“The peacekeeping veterans are here among us today. We can relate to the world views of the 1990s more than we could the opinions and views they had during the World War I and World War II,” she said. “So that made their experiences even more real for us.”

Brittany Clough, 17, says she still cries every time she does a run-through.

“It’s awesome to be able to portray what others went through in this way.”

Most of what she now knows about Canada’s role in peacekeeping missions she’s learned from the project, and getting inside her character’s experiences.

She plays a woman whose big brother is killed in battle, and she expresses the pain of that loss.

“I have a big brother, so I can imagine how that would feel.”

It’s been educational.

“I think it sticks with you more when you learn it this way.”

For student actor Faron Giltaca, it’s been nothing short of “life-changing” to perform the Remembrance Project scripts two years running.

“It’s not just learning lines, but getting into the mindset of the person you’re portraying, who is completing their service because they have to. It can be very emotional.”

That’s why he’s happy his character allows him to bring a little levity to the play, as some who served in Cypress in the 1970s, and has an officers’ latrine blown up by a mortar.

“It’s not all doom and gloom,” he says.

The Remembrance Project is the culmination of a decade of intense research and interviews with veterans after Fultz found himself disappointed after attending a “vapid and irrelevant” Remembrance Day ceremony back in 2001.

The veterans deserved better, he thought at the time. That’s when the seeds of the The Remembrance Project were planted.

“It’s been an interesting project and a really cool journey,” said Fultz.

More than 50 schools have now performed the emotion-laden scripts, and he’s had an “avalanche” of requests.

But Peace Keepers is the final and “by far the most difficult script” in both acting challenge and content, said Fultz.

“In this play we look at not only the veterans’ experiences in Bosnia, Rwanda, and Cypress, but the cost these veterans and their families continue to pay today,” he said.

The performances this year will begin on Oct. 26 at the Masonic Hall, 45905 Hocking Road, for members of the CFB Chilliwack Historical Society.

The public is invited to the performance of Peace Keepers on Wednesday, Nov. 7 at the GW Graham Theatre at 7 p.m. Admission is by donation with all proceeds going to the Royal Canadian Legion.

A

n education in theatre can take you in many directions — not just Hollywood. That’s according to UFV’s theatre department head, Bruce Kirkley.

The skills learned in UFV’s theatre program can be carried over to most jobs after graduation, and are applicable in all walks of life, added Kirkley.

“One of the most important things about theatre education is learning to work as part of a creative team, and learning to communicate effectively and responsibly, in a creative environment,” said Kirkley.

“There’s just no question that these are the types of qualities that employers look for when hiring in the new economy.”

Another important quality learned in theatre is working towards a significant deadline.

“And there’s no deadline quite like an opening night,” said Kirkley.

Students also learn how to organize their time, work with a group of people effectively, and co-ordinate different components coming together. And while that’s done for performances, those are skills that are applicable in all jobs, added Kirkley.

While some students enter the programs with a dream of acting in Hollywood, many have gone on to be teachers, small business owners, or members of the RCMP. The theatre program works to provide a well-rounded understanding of how theatre

works. While students will have to take an acting class at some point, there are also technical theatre courses, which allow students to work backstage or with costumes.

The theatre program has small class sizes to ensure all students receive individual attention.

There are numerous program options, too. They include a theatre diploma, associate of arts degree in theatre, a Bachelor of Arts degree with a minor or extended minor in theatre. Or you can also take theatre courses on an elective basis.

UFV’s theatre department puts on a full season of theatre, with three major productions, a Director’s Theatre Festival of student directed plays, and

Jeannie’s Haunted House is not for the faint of heart.

Severed heads dangle from above, clowns with weapons lurk around the corner, and people will jump out at you when you least expect it.

For the five years she’s been living in Promontory Heights, Jeannie Savard has been scaring children and adults with her Halloween display.

During the month of October, Savard transforms the outside — and this year even part of the inside — of her home into a creepy, crawly haunted house.

This year, her display has doubled in size compared to last year’s.

It begins with her front yard, continues along the side of her house and into the back yard,

The Chilliwack

Progress

R AESIDE

A memo from the B.C. Ministry of Education to all 60 school districts last week advises teachers not to show the video in which Amanda Todd tells her tragic tale, flash card by flash card.

The video has been viewed close to 20 million times on YouTube already.

Memorial pages on Facebook have garnered sympathies from Russia to Texas, while other teens have posted their own videos to Youtube in reaction to the suffering and harassment Amanda faced and which led to her suicide.

Ministry of Education anti-bullying staff fear that footage of Amanda’s video could trigger other vulnerable teens like those suffering from bullying to commit suicide.

Amanda’s mother, Carol Todd, however, wants the video to be used to help others who may be suffering as her 15-year-old daughter did.

The B.C. Teachers’ Federation says the ministry’s request ignores the reality that many kids have seen the video and need or want to talk about it.

And so they should.

But some haven’t seen the video and don’t want to, nor do they want to talk about it, for whatever reason.

That is their choice, or that of their parents.

No one should be forced to watch the video.

At the same time, no one who wants to should be denied that opportunity, especially those who it may help.

Rather than restrict the video from classrooms, or to ignore the ministry’s request and do so anyway, why not show the video at lunch in the library or cafeteria or gymnasium of high schools, at least, and host a discussion afterwards. Send home a permission form to parents. Make available staff and resources at the viewing for students who might have questions afterwards or want to seek help.

For the ministry to suggest that the video doesn’t help address bullying issues is rather simplistic, because the video touches other important topics, as well, such as online safety and social media responsibility.

Would the ministry rather a troubled teen watch the video at home, alone?

Amanda made the video because she felt that way, so others wouldn’t also.

The discussion has already begun. Let it continue. ~ Black Press

The attack of the U.S. celebrities

VICTORIA – There was palpable disappointment among reporters when Greenpeace organizers clarified that U.S. actors Daryl Hannah and Mark Ruffalo weren’t actually going to join the sit-in against heavy oil pipeline proposals at the B.C. legislature on Monday.

I was disappointed too. I would have liked to learn more about what a washed-up mermaid and an easily confused Incredible Hulk really believe about the North American oil industry. In the spirit of celebrity slacktivism, both sent statements of support.

To be fair, Ruffalo may still be busy searching for the “truth” about 9/11. In 2007 he declared that the official U.S. government report on the terrorist attacks was “completely illegitimate” because “buildings don’t fall down like that.” I wonder what the relatives of those aboard the hijacked airliners think of him.

Hannah has had lots of free time since starring in the 1984 mermaid fantasy Splash. Now she’s mostly famous for getting arrested, and she did so again in Texas on Oct. 3, standing in front of earthmoving equipment building the southern section of the Keystone XL pipeline.

Tom It’s worth notFLETCHER ing that the project Hannah tried to stop has the support of the Barack Obama administration. The southern section from Cushing, Oklahoma oil storage facilities to Texas refineries is indeed being built by the sinister foreign TransCanada Corp., but it doesn’t carry the dreaded Canadian “tar sands” oil that ecocelebrities are convinced will end

life on Earth as we know it.

It’s the northern section that Obama has temporarily opposed, after fer vent demonstrations such as the one in Washington DC where Hannah’s first celebrity arrest occurred in 2011.

At that time, Hannah recited the familiar talking points of the U.S. environmentalists who exclusively target Alberta. In a new book, oil sands pioneer and Suncor founder Rick George dissects Hannah’s claims, and asks why they were reported so widely and uncritically.

Hannah claimed “the contribution to the carbon in the atmosphere is unprecedented.” George cites a Royal Society of Canada report that concludes the entire oil sands operation is responsible for five per cent of Canadian emissions. Fossil-fuelled electricity generation is 16 per cent of Canada’s total. Vehicles and other transportation account for 27 per cent.

“How does the oil sands contribution possibly qualify as unprecedented?” George asks.

Another Hannah quote: “I’ve been hearing about how many people have cancer that live downstream from the tar sands project.”

Canadians heard that too, thanks in large part to an alarmist CBC documentary by David Suzuki featuring jet-set movie director James Cameron.

George describes how this allegation was made in 2006 by a doctor who claimed a cluster of rare bile cancer cases in the remote village of Fort Chipewyan, and blamed it on oil sands mining. Headlines blared around the world.

George details the Alberta Health Services study that followed, identifying three such cases in 12 years. Statistically higher, yes. A general risk, no. Other types of cancer in Fort Chip were lower

than the general population.

This finding was endorsed by Australian, New Zealand, U.S. and Canadian researchers. The doctor who diagnosed the original bile cancers admitted: “These results were based on a small number of cases – there is no cause for alarm.”

Was this news trumpeted around the world? You can guess the answer.

My point here isn’t to make fun of ill-informed celebrities. It’s to counteract the fawning, scientifically ignorant coverage they are routinely given by the mainstream media.

And I’m not promoting the oil sands or pipelines. I’m saying they should be considered based on facts, not foolishness.

I am a frustrated and concerned mom! My son has not only had his bike stolen once, but three times – and we are getting sick of it.

The last bike that he had stolen was on Monday, Oct. 22, right out of Chilliwack secondary school’s front entrance way where all of the bikes are locked up on a bike rack.

The thing that breaks my heart is that he has not had that bike for a month and he bought it with his own money that he had saved up with all summer long

Attorney General Shirley Bond has launched a new court management system designed to improve efficiency and cut down the backlog of criminal cases.

The changes are based on a review of the system conducted by lawyer Geoffrey Cowper, which analyzed a “culture of delay” that resists change. Cowper concluded the problem is partly because there is an incentive, particularly for defence lawyers, to delay cases, and no system for enforcing timely hearings of evidence.

“During the review there was a general sense that judges and lawyers have their own, insulated sense of what constitutes timeliness and responsiveness,” Cowper wrote in his report, released in September.

Bond announced the first phase of changes, including the establishment of a new oversight organization.

“The Justice and Public Safety Council will be asked to publish performance measures, and we’re going to look at designing and deter-

it currently takes 14 months or more to schedule a half a day for a brief trial. Defendants who have waited 18 months or more can apply for and often receive a stay of proceedings because their case has taken too long.

Both Lakshman and NDP justice critic Leonard Krog have repeatedly pointed to a reduction of 16 provincial court judges since 2005. Lakshman said the recent imposition of a government-wide hiring freeze has slowed the replacement of prosecutors, sheriffs and court clerks, because each new hire requires approval from the head

mining what those measures are, and there will be targets attached to them,” Bond said at a news conference in Kamloops Monday.

Samiran Lakshman, president of the B.C. Crown Counsel Association, said he welcomes the changes to a system that has prosecutors in some communities overwhelmed.

“Not every courthouse has a delay problem,” Lakshman said.

“We have acute delay issues in the busiest courthouse in the province, which is Surrey, as well as places like Fort St. John, Nanaimo and Richmond.”

In Surrey, he said

Samiran Lakshman, president of the B.C. Crown Counsel Association, says new measures are good for the long term, but more provincial court judges are needed to reduce a backlog of cases.

of the public service.

Bond has questioned why waiting time in courts goes up even when the crime rate and the number of new cases declines. She says it should not take an average of seven appearances in court before a criminal case goes to trial.

In his report, Cowper noted that 98 per cent of criminal cases end with a guilty plea or a stay of proceedings, but the system treats all cases as if they are going to trial. He said the number of new cases dropped sharply last year as most impaired driving charges were replaced with roadside suspensions, and now is at the same level as the early 1990s.

“The current rules were the result of a wholesale change made over a decade ago to involve judges more actively in the pre-trial phase of proceedings to encourage early resolution and reduce the high proportion of cases that collapse on the first day of trial,” Cowper wrote.

“Neither prosecutors nor defence counsel changed their practices in order to realize the potential of the new rules.”

The district is asking the province for $3.3 million for an addition at Promontor y elementar y, $3.9 million at Sardis elementary, and $7.2 million at G.W. Graham. It would also like an additional $2 million for mechanical upgrades at Vedder middle school and Tyson elementary.

This is not the first time the district has asked for funding to expand Promontor y school. It has topped the list on the district’s capital plan

capital plan was so heavy on expenditures in the first two years – a concern echoed by others around the table.

school, and $12 million for a K-to-9 school.

That new construction has been prompted by the City of Chilliwack’s recent approval of its Eastern Hillsides Comprehensive Development Plan, which projects a population growth that could top 6,400 people.

The K-to-9 school would require an additional $517,000 in Year 3 of the plan, and a final $16.7 million in Year 4 for a total expected cost of $29.3 million.

Trustee Doug McKay questioned why the five-year

wish list before.

Students at Sardis elementary, meanwhile, have been in portable classrooms for nearly10 years, trustees heard.

Schools slated for expansion in the second year of the five-year plan include Watson elementar y ($2.8 million), and Evans elementar y ($3 million).

Also in the second year, the district is looking for $18 million for the site acquisition and preliminary stages of two new schools in the Eastern Hillsides: $6 million for a kindergarten-to-Grade 6

Evans Road, at the southern rail crossing (near Stevenson Road), will be closed to facilitate rail crossing replacement

by Southern Railway. A new concrete panel crossing, similar to the CN crossing at Eagle Landing Parkway will provide a smoother and longer lasting crossing surface.

Local traffic only, will be able to access Evans Road from each side between Wells and Stevenson Roads.

Daniel Sallos may be only 17 years old but he’s already wise beyond his years. As a well-spoken, mature young man he’s q u i t e practical about his life and its challenges in living Ana with diaMacedo betes.

With or without diabetes, there are many changes which impact a teenager’s life. For those young people impacted by the disease, they quickly understand the implications that it has on their lives. “Other kids can eat whatever they want but for me, I know that I have responsibility to take care of myself. I have to watch what I eat,” he said.

Daniel comes from a very loving and supportive family. His formative years were wonderful and life was good. When he was 8 years old, his family decided to take a trip to Disneyland and it was there, in the happiest place on earth, that it was confirmed. “It was discovered that I had diabetes. My granddad has Type II diabetes but as far as I’m aware, no one else in my family has it.”

The signs were probably all there before the holiday, but the dots just weren’t totally connected. “I had become quite skinny and you could actually see some of my ribs. I wasn’t hungry at all. In fact, I couldn’t even finish a meal and I had a lack of energy overall. When we got to Disneyland, I was so incredibly thirsty. After every ride, I just had to go to the bathroom but I didn’t really think much about it because I knew that I was drinking so much. It really was amazing that I never collapsed,” he explained. By the time that they got home, his parents took him to the doctor and their physician instructed them to take him to the hospital immediately.

“There I was the hospital waiting room, eating my Disneyland candy,” he laughed.

The tests came back positive and it was definitively affirmed that Daniel had Type I diabetes. “This diagnosis changed my whole life.

Travel Tourism shows strong growth potential

in the

DRIVER’S SEAT

For some, a dream job would be a vacation planner – for themselves! Vacationing in B.C. can take so many forms that it would indeed be a full-time job.

The tourism and hospitality industry is an extremely diverse industry with over 400 different occupations – including occupations

with Tracee Kentala Hyundai Sales Professional

that lead to longer-term careers, as well as those that fit well for those seeking part-time work, like students or older workers who are not yet ready to retire.

British Columbia’s tourism industry will be a leader in provincial job growth as businesses look to fill 101,000 new job openings by 2020, according to a study of

Building Your Future Congratulations Olivia on your brand new 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT!!!

out the plan to recruit, retain and train the workers needed to keep pace with the growth projected for the industry. Nearly half of the 101,000 openings will be new jobs created by the tourism industry across the province, adding 44,220 more jobs to the provincial workforce by 2020. The other approximately 57,000 openings are due to replacements (i.e. retirements).

“The labour strategy co-ordinated by go2 is a key pillar of industry growth in the province. Without it, we simply wouldn’t have the skilled workers in place to deliver the visitor experience throughout BC,” says Lana Denoni, Chair of TIABC, the Tourism Industry Association of British Columbia.

British Columbia’s location, bordered by the Rocky Mountains on the east and the Pacific Ocean on the west, makes it unique within Canada. Its mountain and coastal scenery, opportunities for summer sailing, winter skiing, and other activities such as fishing or sightseeing in coastal or inland waters or experiencing our vibrant cities all make us a world-class destination.

more than $6.4 billion in 2010, ahead of forestry, mining, oil and gas extraction, and agriculture.

Tourism and hospitality generated $13.4 billion in annual revenue in 2010. Overall, between 2004 and 2010, industry revenues grew by a total of 25.5 per cent, representing an average annual growth rate of 4.2 per cent.

The provincial government’s Gaining the Edge: A Five-year Strategy for Tourism in British Columbia targets revenue growth of five per cent a year that will top $18 billion in tourism spending by 2016.

The fastest growing sectors for tourism job growth over the next decade are expected to be recreation and entertainment and travel services.

Those are sectors well understood in the Chilliwack area. Minter Gardens, for example, draws more than 75,000 people to the region every year. But they’re not just coming to view the world class gardens. Recent efforts to

diversify the business have led to in increase in banquet hosting and special event planning.

During peak season, says Minter Gardens marketing director Erin Minter, that can mean up to five special functions in one day. To keep the gardens well maintained, and the banquets running smoothly, Minters employees roughly 50 people in a variety of capacities, she says.

There are an estimated 17,943 tourism-related businesses across the province, employing about 260,000 workers, or 10.8 per cent of B.C.’s total labour force of 2.4 million people.

Chilliwack is close to that provincial average.

According to Chilliwack Economic Partners (CEPCO), tourism accounts for nine per cent of local employment.

More than 80 per cent of tourism’s new job openings are projected to come in Food and Beverage Services (43,410 openings), Recreation and Entertainment (20,530 Continued: Job/ p23

“After several years of slow labour growth, the tourism industry is poised to expand,” said Arlene Keis, Chief Executive Officer of go2. “Labour shortages are already being felt in places like Northern B.C., the Thompson Okanagan and in the Rockies regions. By 2016, the crunch will be more acute throughout the province.”

Hemlock Resort near Chilliwack hopes to avoid any labour shortages by actively attracting workers as the ski season draws near. The resort, which employs roughly 220 people each season, is hosting a job fair at Hemlock on Nov. 3. Sam Hick, Hemlock’s human resources manager, says they can expect a couple of hundred potential applicants to

The part-time work, says Hicks, makes it ideal for students.

“The tourism industry often provides people with their important first job and sets them on their career path,” said Keis. “Tourism is also the largest employer of youth, with one in four British Columbians under the age of 24 working in the industry.”

“This anticipated growth in tourism reinforces the need to plan carefully and ensure that there are enough workers with the right skills in the right communities to meet the tourism industr y’s future labour needs,” said Keis.

Although Daniel lives with diabetes each and every day, the disease doesn’t define who he is or what he does. While he must watch his diet, administer his insulin and take care to balance rest with activity, the grade 12, St. John Brebeuf High School student, is your typical teen that enjoys friends, video games and his music. “I’ve been raised to appreciate all kinds of music. When my brother, sisters and I needed to chill, my parents used to play Mozart. This would actually do the trick; it was rather calming,” he laughed.

Daniel and his three siblings can all play basic piano and it was an unwritten rule that all

While we all play basic piano, my older sister is the only one who took off with it. She can also play clarinet and guitar. My older brother plays trombone and my younger sister plays the clarinet and guitar. I play the trumpet and the ukulele,” he said.

They all come by their musical talent naturally given that their mother is an elementary school teacher who taught music at St. Mary’s School for years and their father is the keyboard player for classic rock band, Head Over Heels.

Deck cuts through the urban myth

Left to right: Danielle Warmenhoven, Thomas Smith and Eli Funk star in the UFV theatre department’s first performance of the season, Once in a Lifetime, which opens Nov. 9. SUBMITTED

Lots of laughs with Once in a Lifetime The opening production of The University of The Fraser Valley theatre department’s 2012/13 season of theatre will be Once in a Lifetime, the hilarious comedy from George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart. The play follows the progress of a trio of failing vaudevillians, who attempt to boost their chances of employment by working as elocutionists in a 1920s Hollywood that is in the process of switching from silent movies to the talkies.

Once in a Lifetime is a full-blown extravaganza, filled with a host of crazy characters and farcical situations that are guaranteed to tickle the funny bones of the most discerning theatre patrons. If you liked the Oscar winning movie The Artist, and the classic Singing in the Rain, you’ll love Once in a Lifetime, which is the epitome of feel-good entertainment.

Director Ian Fenwick has assembled a large cast of UFV Theatre students for

this production, with many cast members playing several roles.

Deck is a hilarious take on finding oneself set in the modern backdrop of a small town, semi-urban environment. This Festival Series show will be presented by the Chilliwack Arts and Cultural Centre Society on November 10 at 7:30 p.m. in the Rotary Hall Studio Theatre and examines the fine line between perfectionism and obsession.

Deck stars Lucas Myers as Cliv, a meticulous single parent of two who is forced to reassess his future after taking major losses in the recent recession. Embracing a new start in an eco-conscious small town community, his attempts at self-sufficiency go sideways when he purchases a house sadly in need of some renovations, mainly the deck, and is forced to try his hand at home improvement. Obsessing with the need to put the deteriorating deck back together and thus his life, we witness a real deck being built as the story unfolds.

Deck was written and performed by Pilot.

Co.Pilot’s artistic director, Lucas Myers (who brilliantly, through voice changes and body mannerisms, transforms into a 16-year-old girl, a 14-year-old boy, an uptight father and a free spirit who’s maybe a little too free with his drugs).

Deck is captivating and absurd, Myers will have the audience in stitches over the antics of these characters as we watch Cliv begin to lose his grasp on reality and become consumed by suspicions. Concerned that he will not be able to finish the deck by himself, Cliv then calls upon audience members to help him finish it. His musical accompaniment of the workers captures the audience’s attention for the entire show with the unpredictability of the performance.

Young Chilliwack writer captures prize for third time Results are in for the 5th annual B.C.-wide Junior Authors Short Story Writing Contest. This year 58 stories were submitted from 17 municipalities across the province. Valerie Flokstra – the only young writer from Chilliwack who entered the contest – took fifth place in the very competitive 14 -17 age category.

Flokstra, who placed sixth in 2011 and third in 2010, has captured a prize

for the third time with her powerful stor y about a young girl who kills a ruthless dictator titled For the Sake of My People. When asked how she feels about her third win, the 16-yearold said, “I love to write and this contest is definitely a great incentive to write, edit and re-edit a story until it’s good.”

Laura Thomas, the Delta resident who launched the contest in 2008, said,

“Valerie can write. She knows what makes a great short story and I love her attitude. Along with another contestant who has entered and placed well multiple times, I have offered her a paying job helping me judge stories for the 2013 contest.”

Thomas, who almost decided that 2012 would be her last year running the contest said, “My own work in writing and communica-

tions is leaving little time for helping young writers. But, then I read the stories and the kids are so excited and grateful for the opportunity that I decided to roll up my sleeves and figure out what more I can do to help them achieve their dream of getting paid for their work.”

Having decided to continue with the annual contest, Thomas has made some key changes to the contest that she hopes will

provide greater opportunities for young writers. She has dropped the restriction on place of residence, narrowed the age range of each category and added two new categories so that the contest is now open writers aged 9 through 20 years old, regardless of where they call home.

Thomas is also planning to host a one-day Junior Authors writing conference in Vancouver next fall.

Through workshops and networking with industry professionals, she hopes to support and encourage the aspirations of talented contestants like Flokstra who dream of being paid for doing what they love.

Laughter and power tools Deck from page 27

Trim: 5.81” 10-12H UPS25

The characters are hysterical in this unique piece of theatre. Real power tools are used to cut wood on stage, and Cliv realizes his extreme level of incompetence at everything from parenting to cutting lumber.

Enter Andreas, the charismatic carpenter who takes Cliv under his wing and offers to lend a hand with building the deck. Cliv begins to lose his grasp on reality as he is drawn into Andreas’ world of free-wheeling free living, and is consumed by suspicions of Andreas’ true motives. Deck is a darkly hilarious take on the modern climate of small town life and is sure to be a wildly entertaining show.

WIN CASH EVERY DAY OF THE YEAR!

cottonwood4 Cinemas

Creating theatre since 1998 and playing all of the characters in Deck, Myers examines the tough choices in life as we follow “Cliv” embracing a new start in a small town; and why a piece of 2x6 lumber isn’t really two inches by six inches – not even close. An engaging interactive piece of theatre Deck will have you on the edge of your seat. Don’t miss this fantastic piece of Festival theatre when it comes to Chilliwack on November 10 at 7:30 pm.

UFV tempts lost alumni with iPad

Dr. Peter Eppinga was lost, but now he’s been found! Despite the fact that he was featured in publicity stories as one of the top

grads at the University of the Fraser Valley in 2006, he and UFV managed to lose touch over the years. That can happen when alumni

move away to pursue the next chapter of their lives.

But the university wants to keep in touch with its alumni and

found those who have been lost: so much so that UFV is offering a chance to win an iPad 3 to any lost alumni who get back in touch.

Eppinga, who completed his Bachelor of Kinesiology at UFV in 2006, recently completed medical school at the University of British Columbia, and now he’s taking his Master of Health Science degree in clinical epidemiology at the UBC School of Population and Public Health, UBC). He’s also working as a consultant for restructuring of a mobile diabetes clinic and working with tele-health surveys and questionnaires, a process in which doctors assess patients over a television screen via satellite communication.

You can find out more about him on his blog, www.drpetereppinga. com ”I’m only where I am today because of what my professors said to me at UFV,” says Eppinga. “They believed in me and alleviated any doubts I had. They literally changed my life!

Roger Friesen from Kinesiology and Allan Arndt from Biology were particularly supportive.”

So when UFV’s Alumni Association tracked him down, he was only too happy to update them on what he’s been doing for the past several years.

He’s a lost alumnus no more.In fact, he came back to volunteer at UFV’s Convocation ceremonies last spring.

“Our alumni are very important to us,” notes UFV Alumni Engagement manager Nancy Armitage. “By keeping up with them and their achievements, we can measure the success of our programs. They’re great ambassadors for our university, and help us to forge connections with our communities.

So we like to keep in touch with as many of them as we can.”

With that in mind, UFV has embarked on a Lost Alumni campaign, run through the Alumni Engagement office.

ROUNDS 3 & 4

As of last March, there were almost 28,000 alumni of UFV. Approximately twothirds of them (64 per cent) are female; slightly more than one third (36 per cent) are male. And 44 per cent of them are considered “lost”.

“We can contact just over half of our alumni by mail, and 40% by email,” says Armitage.

“We’d like to get our contact numbers up to at least 75 per cent.

That’s why we’re offering the incentive of the Lost Alumni iPad contest.”

To get back in touch with UFV, and register for your chance to win an iPad, go to www. ufv.ca/alumni, and follow the link in the top right corner to the lost alumni page. Deadline is Oct 31.

Hansen’s contributions to the Chiefs the last two seasons were not measured in offensive output, writes Jacob Bestebroer

Goalie Mitch Gillam and defenceman Shay Laurent (No. 4) are in Vernon to take on the struggling Vipers Saturday night. JENNA HAUCK FILE PHOTO

Chiefs invade snake pit If ever there’s been a good time to face the Vernon Vipers, this is it. The Chilliwack Chiefs travel to Vernon Saturday night to face a perennial BCHL powerhouse that has fallen on hard times.

The Vipers, used to being at the top of the Interior conference, find themselves near the bottom, victims of a string of bad breaks.

Anything that could go wrong for the Vernon Vipers seems to be happening all at once.

Not only will the Snakes be without veteran forward Brendan Persley for at least the next six weeks (he went in for surgery Tuesday to repair a broken leg), they also lost the services of recently acquired winger Cody Fowlie.

Fowlie, an Airdrie, Alta. product who had a

goal and assist in three B.C. Hockey League games since joining Vernon from the WHL Everett Silvertips, was plucked by the Kelowna Rockets Monday afternoon.

“He was going to be a huge part of this,” said general manager and head coach Jason Williamson.

“The chances of that happening were not good, but Kelowna had some injuries. I don’t blame him for going one bit, but it’s a tough pill to swallow on our part for sure.”

Fowlie, 20, is expected to join the Rockets on a four-game road trip to Alberta starting tonight against the Medicine Hat Tigers.

He was playing on the Vipers’ top line with Adam Tambellini and Aaron Hadley.

Said Rockets’ head

coach Ryan Huska: “Having just one 20-year-old in your lineup isn’t really enough. A lot of times, those older guys can come in and push the rest of your lineup, including the other overage players.

“We want to see Cody come in here and compete for a spot.”

If the loss of Fowlie wasn’t enough to test the downtrodden Vipers’ depth, they could soon be waving goodbye to their top two scorers – Adam Tambellini (6-6-12 in 14 games) and Aaron Hadley (6-3-9 in 14) – and hard-nosed rookie d-man Kevin Guiltinan for a while. The trio leaves Sunday to audition with Team Canada West for the World Junior A Challenge, which goes Nov. 5-11 in Yarmouth, N.S.

Should they make Canada West, they will miss the Vipers’ next four games.

For tunately for Williamson, they will be in the lineup Friday night when Vernon entertains the Salmon Arm SilverBacks Friday night (7:00) at Wesbild Centre, and against the Chilliwack Chiefs Saturday.

The ‘Backs are last in the Interior at 4-9-01, while the Chiefs are first in the Mainland Division at 9-3-1-1.

The injuries/ absences would be enough to test most Junior A teams, but for the Vipers, losers of five straight games, they are devastating.

Following Saturday’s 2-1 overtime loss to the host Rivermen at the Langley Events Centre, the Vipers dipped to 3-7-

One of the things I like most about junior hockey, other than the word lockout never being a part of it, are the unpredictable player performances that happen each season.

Sometimes it happens right from the start of the season, and sometimes it happens within a season.

A good example of that is last year’s performance of Chiefs forward Malcolm Gould.

Gould was coming off a 14 goal season in Quesnel, so it was fair to expect an increase to 20-25. For the first half the season that’s exactly the pace he was on. Then, in the second half he exploded for 24 goals, doubling his production through the first 30 games.

Josh Hansen has produced this year’s surprise performance. He finished with a career high 12 goals in 58 games in 2011-12. This season he leads the league with 11 goals after just 14 games.

Hansen’s contributions to the Chiefs the last two seasons were not measured in offensive output. He was the dependable defensive player who always gave an honest effort.

He was a key player on the penalty kill and his leadership was a big part of the team.

Any offensive output was a bonus.

0-4 and are second-last in the Interior Division.

Williamson liked his team’s effort against Langley (6-5-0-2), saying they controlled most of the action. He held a team meeting Monday, urging them to stick with it.

“Good things will come to teams that are persistent, and we’ve just got to be that way.

“You’ve just got to build off the positive things we’ve done.

On the weekend we didn’t get any results, but there’s some good things we did and we just have to keep stress-

His numbers this season are not by accident. He’s not a fighter and he doesn’t run around looking to throw big hits, but he plays a quietly physical game.

He pays the price to gain the advantage in puck battles. Watch him next game and you’ll see him fight for position in front of the opposition net, especially on the power play.

Several of his goals this season have come on rebounds from within five feet of the net. He’s getting to those rebounds first because of his strength and hard work. Credit the off-season work he put in to make himself stronger.

And of course, playing with two smart offensive players in Luke Esposito and Austin Plevy doesn’t hurt.

Speaking of Plevy, his strong start has earned him an invitation to Canada West’s selection camp next week in Calgary. Plevy is one of 60 players trying to earn a spot on the team that will represent BC/Alberta at the World Junior A Challenge in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia from Nov. 5 - 11. Plevy is the only Chief invited.

Ten of 16 BCHL teams have at least one player invited.

The next home game is Nov. 7 versus the Langley Rivermen.

ing on those. If we do a couple of those little things differently, one of those one-goal games will turn around in our favour.”

Before facing Vernon, the Chiefs must first battle through a Friday night tilt with the Coquitlam Express.

The Mainland division rivals clash for the third time this season. Chilliwack took a 6-3 win the last time they visited the Poirier Sports and Leisure Centre on Oct. 5.

The teams battled to a 4-4 draw the next night in a hugely entertain-

ing game at Prospera Centre.

The Chiefs (9-3-1-1) and Express (8-4-1-0) are separated by three points in the tightly packed Mainland division, with Coquitlam holding one game in hand.

If two points in October are just as good as two in February, this is a game the Chiefs won’t want to fritter away.

This weekend marks games four and five on a seven game road stretch for the Chiefs, who won’t be back home until Nov. 7.

The weather cooperated nicely, with one 20 minute burst of rain occuring at the very end of the day. The downpour coincided with medal presentations, making for a memorable finish.

Gavin Parks, Kenyan Reid, Kaden Anderson, Raphael Trill, Ben Amey, Deaglan Perr y, CJ Robison, Yapo Conteh, Myles Merchant-Long and Logan Fast were all Players of the Game for their respective teams. ● An all-local minor football matchup pitted Chilliwack’s atom White Giants against

their Blue counterparts at Townsend Park.

The White Giants prevailed in a thriller, taking a 41-28 decision.

Wideout Logan Buchwitz led the victors, finding the endzone for four majors. Speedster Joshua Caverly added two TDs, both on long passes from quarterback Mateo Tuioti.

Buchwitz earned offensive player of the game honours for the White Giants, with Nick Beck getting the nod as defensive player of the game.

Blue Giants faced off against Abbotsford’s Black Falcons, falling 36-6 to the first place team.

Chilliwack’s defence did well, holding Abby to their second lowest total of the season.

Battling injuries and illness, the Giants got standout games from halfback Ryan Clayton, cornerback Josh Balzer and the defensive line rotation of Erik VanderWerff, Nat Oenema, Jacob Butler, Nathan Stuppard and Warren Rogers.

“So the highlight for me came early in the

third quarter when he stepped back into the pocket and a defender was all over him. Gibson simply pushed the rusher off and threw a strike downfield.”

UFV soccer women aiming for playoff upset Dan Kinvig, Black Press

It’s perhaps the most overplayed song in North American sports arenas, but Journey’s Don’t Stop Believin’ might be the most fitting soundtrack for the University of the Fraser Valley women’s soccer team as they embark

on the playoffs. The Cascades, the No. 7 seed in Canada West with a 6-5-1 record, hit the road to face the No. 2 Victoria Vikes (9-2-1) in the conference quarter-finals on Saturday.

The teams met two weeks ago at Chilliwack’s Exhibition Field, and though UFV might have had the edge in scoring chances, the Vikes prevailed 1-0.

“After that game, I talked to the girls about that little extra level of belief that maybe leads to a bit more composure in the attacking third,” Cascades coach Rob Giesbrecht said.

“If you’re confident and you’re composed, there’s a greater chance you’re going to execute.

“That’s what it’s going to take to be successful this weekend.”

Simply qualifying for the playoffs should be viewed as a huge accomplishment for a youthful Cascades squad which lost central midfielders Mackenzie Shopland and Chelsea Steffen to season-ending knee injuries.

In their absence,

Giesbrecht has seen players like striker Carly Neeson and rookie midfielder Kara Delwo step up.

“We’re learning lots this year, and it’s been a fantastic experience for us to be in these tight battles,” he said.

The Cascades wrapped up the regular season with a pair of losses against nationally ranked foes on the weekend. They fell 2-1 to the No. 3 Trinity Western Spartans on

Friday, with Danica Kump mustering the lone UFV tally. On Saturday, the No. 7 UBC Thunderbirds beat the Cascades 5-2, despite goals from Danika Snook and Tristan Corneil. ● The UFV men’s soccer team also dropped both their weekend matches, falling 1-0 to TWU and 3-0 to UBC. The Cascades probably deserved better against the Spartans

– they outshot their local rival 24-10, but were unable to generate a goal. TWU’s Jarvis Ambaka scored the game-winner in the 74th minute.

On Saturday, Milad Mehrabi scored twice to lead the Thunderbirds to victory.

“We lost to a very good UBC team,” UBC coach Alan Errington said, “but our lack of offence this weekend hurt.”

The Cascades men

(3-5-4, 13 points) still have a mathematical shot at catching UVic (5-5-2, 17 points) for the third and final Pacific Division playoff berth, but they would need to win both of their home games this weekend as they wrap up the regular season. They host the Winnipeg Wesmen on Friday, and the Mount Royal Cougars on Saturday.

Both games kick off at 7:15 p.m. at Chilliwack’s Exhibition Field.

Cascades collecting Chilliwack native Alexa McCarthy once again has UFV athletes Walking and Knocking for the Abbotsford Food Bank.

The UFV basketball star spearheading the initiative last year, and continues it this year.

Cascade players from nine varsity squads will

be out and about from 6 to 8 p.m. on Halloween night, looking for donations of non-perishable food.

The athletics department will also be setting up drop boxes in the lobby of the Envision Athletic Centre.

Dad has decided to take the long vacation with mom.

Dad passed away LAWN the evening of October 19, 2012 at Chilliwack General Hospital.

Born in England June 26, 1920 to Vic and Polly Lawn, he came to Canada in 1930 settling in Vancouver. He enjoyed a great athletic career including professional basketball with the Vancouver Hornets. He married Katherine Petrie in 1953. He worked for the BC Liquor Board for 30 years eventually transferring to Sardis in 1974 with the family.

Dad had a rich and fulfilling life, traveling to Palm Springs with his family, burning up the golf course and emptying his wallet at the horse races.

His only regret was that mom couldn’t have shared more time with him having passed away far too early.

Left to continue on, are his sons Doug (Patti), Bryan, Marty (Heather); grandsons: Stephen and Michael; granddaughters: Hayley and Kaya.

He will be forever missed.

Special thanks to all the staff on NU5 at the Chilliwack Hospital.

A memorial service will be held at Carman United Church 7258 Vedder Rd, Sardis at 2:30 pm on Thursday, November 1, 2012.

FETTERLY Rhonda ‘Leanne’

Sept. 17, 1964 - Oct. 4, 2012 In loving memory of Leanne Fetterly who passed away peacefully at the age of 48 on FETTERLY the morning of October 4, 2012 at Abbotsford Regional Hospital after a courageous battle with cancer.

She was born in Chilliwack and lived her life there. She was a faithful member of the Community of Christ church.

Leanne will be fondly remembered as a woman who touched many lives.

Throughout her life she shared her compassion, sense of humour, faith and gift of music. She loved being able to create things with her hands: crossstitch, scrap booking, sewing and knitting including

pneumonia vests for premature babies and many prayer shawls given to those in need.

Leanne had an incredible gift for connecting with children in many areas of the community. She loved spending many hours nurturing children. Leanne enjoyed helping, guiding and enriching numerous young lives.

This included children in preschools, daycare centers, the Chilliwack School District and church youth.

Leanne had a fondness for animals, especially cats. During her lifetime she rescued, cared for and nursed many back to health.

She will be missed dearly and lovingly remembered by her parents Ron and Vilda Fetterly; siblings: Lori (Dale), Mark (Linda), Sandra (Aeron), and Lisa; nephews and nieces: Travis (Jennesa), Steven (Maddie), Beth, James, Sean, Jeremy, Anais and Emmet; aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and her church family.

The family is grateful to the compassionate doctors, nurses and staff of Oncology and the Tertiary Palliative Care Unit at Abbotsford Regional Hospital and Cancer Centre for their incredible loving care.

In celebration of Leanne’s life a memorial service will be held on Saturday, October 27, 2012 at 2:00 pm at Community of Christ church 9845 Carleton Street North in Chilliwack.

WHITNEY Alton Leonard

July 9, 1932 – Oct 20, 2012 It is with such deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our loved one AlUPO 8IJUOFZ MILNE He was an incredible son, brother, husband, father, grandfather and great- WHITNEY grandfather.

Alton passed away peacefully at home on October 20, 2012 in the arms of his beloved wife Theresa and surrounded by his children and grandchildren.

Alton is survived by his wife of 55 years, Theresa (known as Terry), their six children: Danny (wife Kate), Marie (husband Ron), Alan (wife Heather), Susan (husband Doug), David, and Dale (husband Steve). Alton is also remembered and loved by his many grandchildren and great grand-children.

Born and raised in Barkers Point, New Brunswick UP "MUPO 4S BOE "NZ 8IJUney, he worked in the Nickel mines before joining the Royal Canadian Air Force as a military police officer in 1956.

Alton was stationed in St. Hubert before serving overseas from 1959-64 before coming back to Gagetown, New Brunswick. Alton’s last military posting was to CFB Chilliwack in 1974 where he and his family remained after 25 years of federal public service. After retiring from the Canadian Armed Forces Alton worked his final years

obituary...

at the federal Kent Maximum Security prison before retiring to his wife and family.

Alton was an avid outdoorsman who loved to spend his time hunting and fishing.

Even near his final days, Alton was optimistic the NHL players and owners would resolve their issues and get back to the game he loved to watch.

However, Alton’s true passion was his wife Theresa.

Mom was the joy of his life and a constant dedicated partner, never leaving his side.

They enjoyed having their tea on their patio surrounded by all his beautiful roses and gardens; they never left each other’s side.

Dad was a simple man, and a humble and a polite man, always thanking the nurses or shaking the hand of the doctors in appreciation for what they were trying to do. He never complained EVER! He amazed us all! He lived for his wife Theresa (affectionately known as Terry), children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren.

Many who had the privilege of relaxing in their back yard would testify it was like a “piece of heaven�. Our father taught us to always enjoy the simple things in life, nature, walks, stopping and smelling the roses and to always be humble, polite, honest and never try to be someone you’re not, to be ourselves.

Dad you taught us well.

The family would like to acknowledge the staff at 8PPEMBXO 'VOFSBM )PNFT for their service and care at this difficult time. The family would also like to extend its appreciation to the Palliative care program, especially the home care nurses that showed their compassion to Dad and Mom. Dr. Hirst and Dr. Bull for their home visits and support. The family would also like to extend their gratitude to the staff at Chilliwack General Hospital, Abbotsford Regional Hospital, Dr Hsu (Cancer clinic) and Dr. Bond and his staff at Surrey Memorial Hospital for all the incredible care he received during this long journey for him.

Thank you also to all the family back east that have flown out to spend quality time with dad, all his brothers and sisters that have been there for him during this difficult time.

Also for friends that came with meals and supported our family. And a special thank you to Reg Daws of FSNA who became Dad and Mom’s friend and support.

In lieu of flowers please send donations to the Canadian Cancer association.
