Fundraiser hopes to raise $10,000 C AROLYN GR ANT editor@dailybulletin.ca

As reported last week in the Daily Bulletin, the 15year old Kimberley girl Jenna Homeniuk, who is fighting leukemia, has been dischaged from hospital.

Jenna is currently staying at Ronald McDonald House in Calgary and being treted as an outpatient at Alberta Children’s Hospital.

But she will be coming home early this spring if all goes well.

As also reported in the Bulletin, the costs of medication could be as high as $4000 per month. Fundraisers, including one at the Sully Pub on March 9, are

But there can never be too many and the latest one, devised by Katey Kirkconnell has a lofty goal. Kirkconnell wants to raise $10,000 to help with medication costs and the cost of trips back to Calgary for medical appointments.

The paths to reconciliation

Ktunaxa and Diocese of Nelson work on reconciling BARRY COULTER Townsman Editor

A chapter in the process of reconciliation and healing between the Ktunaxa First Nation and the Diocese of Nelson over their mutual residential school history has concluded, opening up a new chapter in relations between the two groups.

Returning To Spirit (RTS) is a series of workshops; the first for aboriginals, the second for non-aboriginals and a third — the Reconciliation Workshop — that brings the two groups together.

The St. Eugene Residential School near Cranbrook was the only such school in the Diocese of Nelson, and one of 18 in British Columbia.

Mary Richardson, Lay Pastoral Worker to the First Nations of the East Kootenay for the Diocese of Nelson, explained the process. The first two workshops of Returning to Spirit (RTS) are exactly the same workshop, but given to each group separately. In these workshops the concept of residential school and how it affected the children who attended is brought to light within the workshop along with how such past experiences of our own can also affect our lives.

“We all carry baggage from our past and it is what happens to that baggage we carry into the present and into the future,” Richardson said.

“In order to become the ‘real you’ you have to let go of the baggage that is weighing you down.

“Also what happens to you today can become baggage tomorrow if you allow it to weigh you down, so therefore you always need to deal with ongoing issues, hurts in your life, in order to let go and move forward. And that is where reconciliation comes in: Reconciling with others and yourself is an ongoing process.

“It is about letting go of the past, today, in the present before it becomes heavy baggage that you are carrying into your future. It is about making things right and moving forward.”

The RTS workshop for aboriginals was held in November, 2011, and the one for non-aboriginals in January, 2012.

The RTS Reconciliation Workshop brought the two groups together at the St. Eugene Mission Resort (the old Kootenay Indian Residential School), in November, 2012.

“For two days the groups met separately to work on communication skills and the final three days the two groups came together for reconciliation,” said Richardson, who served as host coordinator — not taking part in the workshops per se, but being there to assist the facilitators.

In February of 2011, Richardson had made a presentation to Diocesan Pastoral Council, and was given the go ahead to form a committee to look at bringing the workshops into the Diocese and in particular to the Cranbrook area.

Bishop John Corriveau of the Diocese of Nelson and elder Annie Capilo of the Ktunaxa Nation take part in a reconciliation service at the conclusion of a 10-day Returning To Spirit workshop, bringing aboriginal and non-aboriginal people together to address the residential school legacy. non-aboriginal workshop in St. Albert, Alberta, in 2008. From that she invited some Ktunaxa Nation members to participate in the Aboriginal Workshop in 2009 in Calgary. And the three attended the Reconciliation Workshop in Saskatoon in the fall of 2009.

In early 2011, enough funding was secured to proceed with the workshops in the Cranbrook area.

Among those who attended was Bishop John Corriveau, of the Diocese of Nelson.

“When I came here (five years ago), the residential school question was really up front,” he said. “And I was struck by the testimony of bishops across Western Canada as to the effectiveness of the workshops.”

“The whole process reminded me of what it takes to be a truly recon-

ciling person,” he said.

“Reconciliation begins in myself. If the relationship has to change, you can’t sit back and think that it will be a gift from outside, it has to come from inside.

“For a whole week we worked on that — it prepared us for the session when the two communities got together.”

One thing that struck Corriveau during the workshops was the depth of cultural violence under the residential school system.

“It made me aware of the tragedy of the residential schools — the systemic violence done to four generations of people.

“If a five- or six-yearold goes into a school and is punished for speaking his or her own language, that is cultural violence. A child would personalize (an attack on his language),” he said.

Another aspect that

struck the Bishop was the commitment by the Ktunaxa people to move forward. “They are absolutely committed to rebuilding family and communal values,” he said. “I saw this as a real sign of hope.

“I also came away with the conviction that the wider society of our church and our culture will be impoverished if we allow this cultural divide to remain,” he said.

Herman Alpine, an elder with the Ktunaxa Nation, attended the St. Eugene residential school from 1949 to 1961. The trauma of being cut off from his culture, of being taught to hate who he was, left him with deep psychological injuries, that set him on a self-damaging path through life.

“Being human, I reached for humans to blame. I blamed the priests, I blamed white people — for many years

that’s the way I thought,” Alpine said.

“There was a lot of hate, not only for other people but for myself.

There was a lot of inner racism.”

However, Alpine came to realize he was suffering from what’s known as Residential School Trauma, and he sought treatment for it, at a years-long program at the Ktunaxa/ Kinbasket Health & Wellness Centre in Creston.

The result was Alpine began looking within, and finding the strength to begin the healing process.

“I realized I was no longer the centre of my universe, and I chose to tell myself I was no longer a victim,” he said. “I understood why I was the way I was, and could accept the things I did.”

Glenys Joan Leibel 1936 - 2013 It is with great sadness that the family of Glenys Joan Leibel announces her passing on Thursday, January 31, 2013 in Cranbrook, BC at the age of 76.

Glenys was born June 3, 1936 as the 6th of 7 children to Frederick and Ethel Probert in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan.

Born and raised in Moose Jaw, Glenys enjoyed playing piano and swimming. She completed her high school education at Central Collegiate and went on to nursing training at Regina General Hospital. Graduating as an R.N. in 1957, Glenys then attended the University of Saskatchewan obtaining her teaching certificate.

She married her husband Ralph in 1960 and together spent time in Ontario where Ralph attended DeVry. On a Christmas vacation home to the prairies, their good friends extolled the virtues of west coast living and soon enough they had packed their trunks and moved west.

They settled in Vancouver where Glenys joined the staff of St. Paul’s Hospital as a clinical nursing instructor in paediatrics prior to the birth of her children. The family moved to Abbotsford in 1974 and then to Cranbrook in 1978. She returned to nursing in 1979 when she joined the team at Cranbrook Regional Hospital and dedicated many years to the Extended Care Unit until illness forced her retirement in 1994.

Glenys is survived by her husband of 52 years, Ralph Leibel as well as daughters Gillian (Kevin) Krippes of Calgary, Alberta, Jennifer (Ron) Sargeant of Kamloops, B.C. and son Peter (Misty) Leibel of Cranbrook, B.C. She also leaves to mourn her beloved grandchildren, Connor, Avery and Sydney as well as her brother Lloyd, sister Sylvia and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and long time best friend from nursing school, Alice. She was predeceased by her infant son, grandson Jeremy, father and mother Frederick and Ethel, brother Kenneth, brother Donald, sister Katherine (Kay) and sister Ruth.

A funeral service for Glenys will be held at McPherson Funeral Home on Thursday, February 7, 2013 at 2:00 pm. An afternoon tea reception will follow.

The family gratefully declines flowers. In honour of Glenys’ lifelong commitment to the healthcare field, she would appreciate donations to the Canadian Cancer Society, 19 - 9th Avenue South, Cranbrook, British Columbia, V1C 2L9 or the Heart & Stroke Foundation of BC & Yukon, Okanagan/Kootenays Area Office, #4, 1551 - Sutherland Avenue, Kelowna, British Columbia, V1Y 9M9.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service.

Alpine also said that reconciliation starts with one’s self, and comes from within first.

“The hope I have is that this never happens again,” Alpine said. “This process of controlling people of changing them.

“I’d suggest to anyone who has the chance to do the workshops to do them.”

“I think it’s only going the bear good fruit,” Bishop Corriveau said.

Richardson said there are still possibilities for another workshop here, or within the Diocese of Nelson which includes the Okanagan area.

“We have experienced something unique, something that can change us within, ‘to Return us to the Spirit of Who We Are,’ something that can move us forward for ourselves, for our communities and move us towards working together for the good of all,” she said.

Skeleton confirmed as Richard III’s What’s Up? Jill L awless Associated Press

LEICESTER, England — He was king of England, but for centuries he lay without shroud or coffin in an unknown grave, and his name became a byword for villainy.

On Monday, scientists announced they had rescued the remains of Richard III from anonymity — and the monarch’s fans hope a revival of his reputation will soon follow.

In a dramatically orchestrated news conference, a team of archaeologists, geneticists, genealogists and other scientists from the University of Leicester announced that tests had proven what they scarcely dared to hope — a scarred and broken skeleton unearthed under a drab municipal parking lot was that of the 15th-century king, the last English monarch to die in battle.

Lead archaeologist Richard Butler said that a battery of tests proved “beyond reasonable doubt’’ that the remains were the king’s.

Lin Foxhall, head of the university’s school of archaeology, said the discovery “could end up rewriting a little bit of history in a big way.’’

Few monarchs have seen their reputations decline as much after death as Richard III. He ruled England between 1483 and 1485, during the decades-long battle over the throne known as the Wars of the Roses, which pitted two wings of the ruling Plantagenet dynasty — York and Lancaster — against one another.

His brief reign saw liberal reforms, including the introduction of the right to bail and the lifting of restrictions on books and printing presses.

But his rule was challenged, and he was defeated and killed by the army of Henry Tudor, who took the throne as King Henry VII and ended the Plantagenet line. Britain’s current monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, is distantly related to Richard, but is not a descendant.

After his death, historians writing under the victorious

skeleton of an adult male who appeared to have died in battle.

He had been buried unceremoniously, with no coffin or shroud — plausible for a despised and defeated enemy.

Increasingly excited, the researchers set out to conduct a battery of scientific tests, including radiocarbon dating to determine the skeleton’s age, BBC to see whether, against the The skeleton of who is now confirmed to be Richard III, odds, they really had found the unearthes beneath a parking lot in Leicester, England. king.

Skydiver fell faster than thought: 1.25 times speed of sound Marcia Dunn Associated Press

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Supersonic skydiver Felix Baumgartner was faster than he or anyone else thought when he jumped from 24 miles (37 kilometres) up.

According to the official numbers released Monday, the Austrian parachutist known as “Fearless Felix’’ reached 843.6 mph (1,357 kph). That’s equivalent to Mach 1.25, or 1.25 times the speed of sound.

His top speed initially was estimated last October at 834 mph (1,342 kph), or Mach 1.24.

Either way, he became the first human to break the sound barrier with only his body. He wore a pressurized suit and

Baumgartner was supersonic for a half-minute — “quite remarkable,’’ according to Brian Utley, the official record-keeping official who was present for the Oct. 14 feat. His heart rate remained below 185 beats a minute, and his breathing was fairly steady.

The leap was from an altitude of 127,852 feet (38,969 metres). That’s 248 feet (75 metres) lower than original estimates.

Some 52 million people watched You Tube’s live stream of the exploit.

Baumgartner shattered the previous record for a free fall plunge, made by Joe Kittinger, an Air Force officer, in 1960. Kittinger did not quite reach supersonic speed during his jump from 19.5 miles (31 kilometres) up.

Stage set for B.C. senate election

C

annon will roar across the Inner Harbour on the morning of Feb. 12 to mark the opening of the 2013 legislature session.

Lieutenant Governor Judith Guichon will inspect the troops and present her inaugural Throne Speech, setting out the B.C. Liberal government’s goals for the coming year.

This ritual will kick off a legislative session that is expected to run until March 14, where the official Parliamentary Calendar shows a three-week break for Easter.

Debate is unlikely to resume in April, as the election campaign will be in full roar by then.

This means there will be a grand total of 19 sitting days to push through a budget and a raft of legislation. Here’s my unofficial preview.

The pre-election budget will be presented Feb. 19 by Finance Minister Michael de Jong. Premier Christy Clark has decreed that it must be balanced, and the government has made extra efforts to armour itself against what will likely be the loudest debate ahead.

First, de Jong held a pre-budget meeting of the government’s blue-chip forecast council in public. This provided a visual record of what happens every year, when the finance ministry solicits the same sort

of independent advice as most competent democracies, and bases its numbers on that.

Then the finance ministry hired former Bank of Montreal chief economist Tim O’Neill, who will act as an unofficial version of the parliamentary budget officer in Ottawa. Now that we have simultaneous oversight of child welfare and the police, the next step is to extend it to finance bureaucrats.

Regardless of party, the government has to produce BC VIEWS a three-year set of forecasts to replace the current one. A Tom lot of election energy will go Fletcher into competing claims about who is better at predicting the future.

Another new law to be given high priority is one setting up senate elections, to be run in connection with the May 14 provincial vote. Alberta pioneered this, and Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s recent round of senate appointments included Calgary lawyer Doug Black, who won an Alberta senate election held last year.

There was no one appointed to replace Gerry St. Germain, who bid an emotional adieu as a Conservative senator for B.C. last year. St. Germain was instrumental in uniting the splintered federal Conservatives, but he reached the mandatory retirement age of 75, having been appointed

by Brian Mulroney in 1993 after losing his seat as an MP. Why would this senate reform be so urgent for the B.C. Liberals now? Well, turnout for the 2009 election fell to around 50 per cent, a record low for a provincial vote. If that downward trend is reversed this year, it will be in large part because people are still mad enough about the harmonized sales tax and a range of other issues to get off the couch and kick some B.C. Liberal butt.

Electing senators remains a popular notion, especially with older, conservative-minded voters in B.C. who identified with the Reform Party. The first-ever senate election looks like the best available shot at boosting turnout among people who are not likely to vote NDP, and who may also be disengaged from provincial politics.

And then there is the provincial sales tax bill. Another kick in the slats for the movie business, for one, and don’t hold your breath for NDP leader Adrian Dix to produce a solution in the wake of his recent trip to Tinsel Town.

The performance of the governing party and the opposition will be scrutinized as never before.

V Local curlers shooting for provincial title 250.426.5201

250.427.5333

TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

Kimberley skip Tom Buchy will lead a team of curlers at the provincial championships for a shot at representing B.C. in the Tim Hortons Brier.

Joining Buchy is fellow Kimberlite Dave Toffolo, while Fernie’s Darren Will and Kelowna’s Dave Stephenson are also on board as the four hope to build on their showing from last year in Parksville on Vancouver Island.

Buchy and his team earned two wins and three losses in five games last year, though a couple of them were decided either in the last end or extra ends.

Toffolo adds that the team is eager to take another run after losing those close games.

“I think last year, we played five games— four of them went down to last rock games or extra ends—it could’ve so easily gone the other way,” Toffolo said.

Stephenson is a new addition, filling in the gap left by Ken McHargue, however, he is well acquainted with Buchy, as the two played together as juniors many years ago.

McHargue opted out this time around to play seniors curling, according to Buchy.

Once Buchy and Stephenson were out of juniors, they played in quite a few cash spiels

NEW ORLEANS The blackout at the Superdome will not stop the Super Bowl from returning to New Orleans.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said that despite the electrical outage which delayed Sunday night’s game for 34 minutes, the city did a “terrific” job hosting its first pro football championship in the post-Katrina era.

“Let me reiterate again what an extraordinary job the city of New Orleans has done,” said Goodell, speaking Monday at a post-Super Bowl media conference held for the game’s most valuable player, Baltimore quarterback Joe

Nadal’s knee improving as he tunes up in Chile

VINA DEL MAR, Chile - Rafael Nadal’s ailing left knee may continue to bother him until the end of the month, his coach said Monday.

Nadal practiced for 90 minutes with Nicolas Massu of Chile on Monday, his fourth straight day of training since arriving in the country for his first match in more than seven months.

Nadal opens play on Tuesday in the VTR Open, playing doubles with Argentina’s Juan Monaco. On Wednesday, he will play singles in the second round against the winner of a first-round match between Argentines Guido Pella and Federico Delbonis.

“The knee is much better, but they’ve told us he will feel some discomfort and lack of mobility until the end of the month,” said Toni Nadal, the seven-time French Open champion’s coach and uncle. “But it’s definitely getting better.”

Nadal has avoided surgery so far, getting therapeutic treatment in hopes of speeding the healing.

Tom Buchy, Dave Stephenson, Dave Toffolo and Darren Will will be aiming for a provincial title and a shot at the Tim Hortons Brier during a tournament on Vancouver Island this week. The team would like to thank following sponsors for all their support: Stephen Rota Management Inc., Coal Valley Motor Products, Assante Wealth Management, Avenue, B & B glass, ABC Country Restaurant, Coors Light, Marysville Petrocan, David Bellm & Company Insurance, Sun Life Financial – Frank Vanden Broek, Prestige Hotels and Resorts, The Kimberley Curling Club and The Sparwood Curling Club. in their early 20s.

While Buchy and Stephenson go way back, Will and Toffolo only got the five games during regional qualifiers to play as a complete team with the new guy.

However, Toffolo has run into Stephenson before, usually as an opponent over the years.

“I’ve never curled with him, but I’ve curled against him quite a few times. He’s a good guy, he’s a good guy on the ice, he’s a good guy to curl against, but he’s also a very good com-

petitor,” Toffolo said.

Buchy said the competition is going to be very tough.

Jim Cotter, who skips out of Vernon, is a twotime provincial champion and has made an appearance at the Brier.

Brent Pierce won a Brier in 2000 playing third for Greg McAulay, and went on to capture a world championship the same year.

Dean Hornig, who curls out of Castlegar and faced Buchy in the zone playdowns, has been to the Brier three times.

“Every year I seem to

say it’s one of the better fields, but this is a good field,” Buchy said. “Any time you go to provincials, you won’t see a weak team there. It’s just a matter of getting on a roll and getting a few breaks.”

The team will get a chance to throw some rocks on Tuesday and check out the ice before competition begins in earnest on Wednesday.

“That’ll give us a chance to view the ice, see if it was anything like last year,” said Buchy. “Last year it was fantastic—had big curl, rocks were great and it

was really fast, so that’s kind of the ultimate for shotmaking.”

The four face Jason Montgomery and his Victoria-based team first in Wednesday afternoon draw.

“We know everybody is throwing rocks, we have to trust in our ability and our experience, because we all have decent experience and we expect everyone to come and be able to play well,” said Toffolo.

“Hopefully it all happens at the right time.

That’s the hope—if it all comes together, good things will happen.”

Outage won’t affect New Orleans as future Super Bowl host BRET T MARTEL Associated Press

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 2013

Flacco, and winning coach John Harbaugh.

“The most important thing is to make sure people understand it was a fantastic week.”

New Orleans has hosted 10 Super Bowls, including Baltimore’s 34-31 victory over San Francisco, tied for the most with Miami.

While serving as the site of America’s biggest sporting event and focus of an unofficial national holiday gets any place a lot of attention, this game had special meaning for New Orleans.

The city last hosted the Super Bowl in 2002 and officials were hoping this would serve as the ultimate showcase on a global scale - of how far it has come since

“I do not think this will have an effect on future Super Bowls in New Orleans. I fully expect to be back for Super Bowls.

I hope we will be back. We want to be back here.”

Roger Goodell being devastated by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The storm winds tore holes in the roof of the Superdome and there was water damage from the rain that affected electrical systems and caused mould to spread. More than $330 million has been spent

to upgrade the facility, which has hosted the annual Sugar Bowl, Saints games, two BCS title games and a men’s Final Four since the storm.

Yet the loss of power was an embarrassment that quickly became perhaps the signature moment of the Ravens’ win.

Goodell said not to worry.

“I do not think this will have an effect on future Super Bowls in New Orleans,” he said. “I fully expect to be back here for Super Bowls. I hope we will be back. We want to be back here.”

Local officials have said they will bid to host an 11th Super Bowl in 2018 to coincide with the 300th anniversary of the

city’s founding. Goodell made it sound like that is still in play.

“This will not affect the view of the NFL of the success of the game here in New Orleans,” Goodell said. “We know that they have an interest in future Super Bowls and we look forward to evaluating that. Going forward, I do not think this will have an effect at all on what I think will be remembered as one of the great Super Bowl weeks.”

Goodell said he had no concerns about the adequacy of the Superdome going forward because “this is clearly something that can be fixed and it’s clearly something we can prepare for and we will.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Do yourself a favor and start listening to your inner voice more often. How you see a personal matter could change dramatically as a result. Be aware of a tendency to be slightly defensive.

Don’t take someone’s comment the wrong way. Tonight: Try a new restaurant.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Listen to news with a grain of salt. Rethink a situation more carefully. Understand what is happening within your immediate group of friends. Know what needs to happen in order to keep you more content. Honor a friend’s request. Tonight: Let someone else choose.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Others’ dynamic energy could push you over the edge if you aren’t careful. A superior might think that he or she has a novel idea. Indulge this person. You could be overwhelmed by others, especially if you have a lot to do. Screen calls. Tonight: Try something unusual.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You have a lot to do. Getting everything done could take a rather large effort, as your mind keeps wandering to yonder lands. You could be taken aback by a suggestion. Detach, and see if you can get the message more in the manner it was meant. Tonight: Go for a brisk walk.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Your imagination can either resolve a problem or distort it. You will know the outcome once you hear others’ feedback. Financial dealings will be highlighted.

Sharp comments are likely. You do not have to do more than listen to them. Tonight: Have fun with a loved one.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Others demand a lot from you.

Listen, but also recognize that you need to make your own decisions. Friends have excellent insights, but they don’t know the specifics of what you are dealing with. Trust your judgment when it comes to your personal life.

Tonight: Anchored in.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You could have difficulty getting

For Better or Worse

and/or giving a clear message.

Maintain a sense of humor. You might not always have the control you desire. Your drive and follow-through make you a star wherever you choose to put your energy. Tonight: Happily head home.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Keep conversations about a key matter within a certain circle of friends or colleagues. Confidentiality is necessary. Adapt to fast changes in the workplace. Tap into your ingenuity if you find that you’re hitting a roadblock.

Tonight: Add more spice to your personal life.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The unexpected occurs. Understand that finances could be involved. Do not commit to any expenses just yet. If you are feeling negative or pessimistic, you could be creating more of a problem for yourself. Detach, and walk away from the issue.

Tonight: Pay your bills.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You hit one of your power days.

A friendship might be very important to you, but know that

sometimes it also can weigh you down. This person often can be demanding. Your efforts do not go unnoticed, and they could turn a problem around. Tonight: Do whatever feels right.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Take some time off. Even though you might think you are needed -- and you very well could be -- you are better off resting or handling a personal matter right now. Someone could be very difficult to deal with. This person carries authority with him or her.

Tonight: Not to be found.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Express your feelings with clarity, especially when dealing with an authority figure. The communication style you use could be the issue. Ask for confirmation or repeat what the other party said. It might be an effective technique. Tonight: At a favorite haunt with friends.

Annie’s Mailbox

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: After two months, I am still upset with my father-in-law. My two daughters recently married, and the weddings were six weeks apart. My in-laws gave us a nice sum of money to help us with the weddings. We were very grateful and told them so.

Right before the first wedding, my husband lost his job. In order to finish paying for the second wedding, we had to ask my father-in-law to lend us more money. He said, “Sure. I want to give the girls what they want.” We didn’t tell our kids about my husband’s job situation because we wanted them to soak in all the glory of being brides without any stress.

Here’s what happened: At Christmas, my father-in-law sent small amounts of money to me, my husband and our son with a note saying, “We thought it would be OK to pass on the girls this year.” The money is such a small amount that it didn’t matter, but I cannot get over the fact that he took out our financial difficulties on them. The girls have no idea why their grandfather didn’t give them holiday gifts, and so far, I haven’t told them.

I am so mad, I could scream. I have to see my father-in-law at a family event this weekend and don’t think I can be civil. This man showered his daughter’s children with cars for graduation that mine never got. I slept on this before writing and am angrier now than when I went to bed. At the moment, I don’t want to ever see him again. Please advise. -- Washington Dear Washington: The fact that Dad is unfair in his gift giving is a legitimate issue, but that doesn’t mean your children are entitled to receive gifts from him. You refer to the wedding money as “loans,” but Dad apparently considered them his wedding gifts to his granddaughters. If so, he was generous, and the girls should know. If they were actual loans and you are repaying the money, we agree that Dad should have treated your family equally at Christmas.

Either way, it serves no purposes to stew in silence. Talk to your husband and then to Dad, together. Try to be nice. We doubt he intended to be unkind, and he probably doesn’t realize that his behavior disturbed you.

Dear Annie: My family recently planned a special, catered, expensive celebration. We gave much thought to our guest list.

One couple told us they wanted their grown children invited. Then the grown children asked if they could bring their children. Some guests simply assumed their children were invited and brought them.

Please tell them again, Annie: If the invitation is addressed to “Mr. and Mrs.,” it is only for them. It does not include children, grandchildren or friends. What has happened to manners? I hope this will enlighten some folks. -- Roanoke, Va. Dear Roanoke: Some people believe all invitations are casual and open. They are not. Guest lists are limited by space as well as cost. It would be nice if your letter helps people understand this so they can be more gracious when responding.

Dear Annie: I can relate to the letter from “No, I Am Not Trying for a Boy,” who had two girls and was still carrying baby weight.

When I was carrying twins, a woman I knew only casually asked me whether I was having a baby elephant. After the girls were born, I overheard a friend saying, “It looks like she still has one left in there.”

However, a true friend visited me in the hospital after my fifth girl and said, “How many people can say they have five beautiful girls?” Some people know what to say and some don’t. That was 35 years ago, and all of our girls have been true blessings in our lives. -- South Dakota Mom Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Obituaries Agnes Frances Owen 1918 - 2013

Agnes Frances Owen of Kimberley, B.C. passed away gently on January 30, 2013 at the age of 94. She was born, Agnes Aikman, in 1918, on a farm outside Lacombe, Alberta.

She moved to Canmore as a young girl and eventually came with her family to Kimberley in the early 1930’s. Agnes always spoke fondly of this mountain city and genuinely enjoyed the people she came to know in Kimberley. In 1941 she married her favourite dance partner, Art Owen, and saw him embark to war the following year. When Art returned from overseas they started a family and raised two daughters in their home in Townsite. Along with her parents and brothers, she and Art owned and operated Aikman’s Café and Aikman’s Camera Shop for a number of decades before retiring to a life of gardening, grandparenting and gourmet cooking. She enjoyed playing bridge, golfing and cross country skiing but, most of all, loved spending time with her family.

She leaves her daughters Gerry (Jack) Wessel of Abbotsford and Bonnie (Brian) McKenzie of Kimberley as well as four grandchildren - Peter (Ana), Jana (Marco), Andrea (Jesse) and David (Kate). Four great grandchildren survive her - Finnegan, Anna, Sophie and Matthew. She was also close to the families of her nieces and nephews and shared a special bond with her niece Louise Archibald. Agnes is predeceased by her husband Arthur and grandsons Steven and Ian. Agnes was a gracious, caring, generous person with an infectious laugh and a twinkle in her blue eyes. She was wise and always knew the right thing to say to touch your heart. She was a breath of fresh air to all who knew her.

She will be greatly missed and fondly remembered here on earth but will be dancing with joy in Heaven.

Agnes’ family wishes to thank the wonderful individuals who make up the staff of the Kimberley Special Care Home for their dedication to the people in their care and for the compassion they show in their day to day tasks.

A memorial service for Agnes will be held on Saturday, February 9th at 3:00 pm at the Kimberley United Church, located at 10 Boundary Street. Reverend Christine Dudley will be officiating.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service.
