Truck leaves acid spill on Sumas Prairie A security perimeter was set up around an area of No. 3 Road and Boundary on Sumas Prairie after an acid spill on Friday afternoon.

Emergency crews were called out shortly before 3 p.m. after a truck lost a load of hydrochloric acid.

More than 20 five-gallon containers ended up on residential property on Boundary Road.

Assistant fire chief Dave Rivett said some of the pails appear to be leaking.

A traffic cordon was placed around the area while HazMat teams deal with the spill.

“At this point there is no danger to the public because we have everybody well away, there’s no danger to the environment because we don’t have any major spills so it’s simply a matter of us stabilizing it and making it safe,” said Rivett while at the scene.

The truck which lost its load left the scene.

“Wherever the truck was, it’s taken off, we have no idea where it is at this time,” said Rivett.

Jam in Jubilee seeks to connect community Organizers aim to provide activity for youth and all ages, attract people to downtown core

Alex BUTLER Abbotsford News

Jam in Jubilee provides free entertainment for people of all ages, but for the event’s organizers, the festival is also about creating engagement between Abbotsford residents and the city’s downtown core.

For six weeks this summer, Abbotsford’s Jubilee Park will be host to live music, performers, an artisan market and more.

Jam in Jubilee – a sixweek summer music festival –runs each Thursday between July 11 and Aug. 15.

Each evening starts off with an artisan

market at 6 p.m. followed by local musicians and performers from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.

Jam in Jubilee began nine years ago, originally run by the Abbotsford Downtown Business Association (ADBA).

Four years ago, Sophia Suderman took over organiz-

ing the event, which is still made possible with a grant from the ADBA. Suderman is the co-founder of the Atangard Community Project, a not-forprofit communityliving project in the Fraser Valley Inn on Essendene Avenue.

As a resident of

EXPANSION PROJECT

Abbotsford’s downtown core, Suderman wanted to further build community outside the walls of the Atangard.

“I was living downtown and really enjoying that, and I wanted to see more vibrancy downtown.”

Stephen O’Shea, Coby Piazza and Derrick Swallow all joined the executive three years ago, and serve as lead organizers for the festival. Each grew up in Abbotsford, and now strive to create an outlet for youth and people of all ages – providing entertainment, community and a place to celebrate the arts in Abbotsford.

O’Shea, artistic director of the festival, said he books mainly local bands, many of whom are active in Abbotsford’s live music community. He said he makes an ef-

fort to find musicians that are palatable to the largest number of community members, creating an eclectic mix that becomes more youth-oriented as the night gets later.

“We’re people who grew up here, who care about the arts and about music, who just want to see the town that they grew up in be more enjoyable for youth.”

Though 20-somethings are the largest demographic drawn in by the festival, Piazza said they incorporate the interests of all people invested in Abbotsford’s downtown, including businesses and community groups.

“It’s nice to see all the groups of different people that have a stake in downtown that want to help out in their own ways.”

Last year, the average attendance per

evening was 720 people; the busiest night on record drew in 1,000 attendees.

The organizers agree that drawing such a large crowd to Jubilee Park is an accomplishment in itself and hope to see attendance rise.

Despite its downtown location, Jubilee Park often remains empty, with a lingering reputation of being unsafe.

This year, Jam in Jubilee is seeking volunteers for each Thursday of the festival to help with greeting, collecting donations and serving in the beer gardens.

They are also seeking vendors and film submissions; anyone interested can contact info@jaminjubilee.com. For more information about performers, vendors and scheduling, visit jaminjubilee.com.

Bear, cub spotted in park

A mother bear and her cub were spotted in Palfy Park on Tuesday.

A local woman was walking her child home from Thomas Swift Elementary School when the bears were seen at the park on Laburnum Avenue.

Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said the bears “were not aggressive in any way but it startled her nonetheless.”

The conservation office was alerted by Abbotsford police and will “work on a relocation plan if necessary.”

“For now it is observation only. We just want folks to be bear aware,” said MacDonald, adding that people should not try to interact with the “cute cub” as the mother bear is close by and will be protective.

Armed robbery suspect arrested

A 29-year-old Abbotsford man has been arrested in connection with an armed robbery at the Mission CIBC Monday morning.

A lone male robbed the First Avenue Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce shortly after 11 a.m. Monday, making off with an undisclosed amount of cash.

According to Mission RCMP Staff Sgt. Rob Dickson, the man produced a handgun, and was wearing a dark grey hoodie with no logo, and black sweat pants.

He entered and exited the bank from the

rear alley entrance, said Dickson. No injuries were reported.

Abbotsford Police Department arrested Jeffery Russell around midnight June 25 on an unrelated outstanding warrant.

Mission RCMP’s Sgt. Shaun Wright said a “significant portion of the stolen cash was recovered at the time of Russell’s arrest” but the handgun was not located.

Crown counsel has approved charges of robbery and using an imitation firearm during the commission of an offence relating to this incident, said Wright.

Rona store to shut down this fall McConnell Road location will close its doors on Oct. 20

Alex BUTLER Abbotsford News

The RONA on McConnell Road off Sumas Way in Abbotsford will close its doors on Oct. 20. as part of the company’s efforts to improve profitability.

RONA issued a press release on Thursday, announcing that 11 nonprofitable stores – eight in Ontario and

three in B.C. – will be closed by the end of the year.

The restructuring of the company also includes a reduction of 125 jobs in the four administrative centres in Canada, in addition to 200 jobs that were cut in February.

RONA stated that it also recently sold its commercial and professional

market division for $215 million, the proceeds of which will be used to reduce debt.

The release states that RONA is aiming for an annualized savings of $110 million, with plans to reinvest 30 per cent of the amount to put in place an “energetic recovery plan for underperforming stores.�

ABBOTSFORD NEWS I Tuesday, July 2, 2013

Fly this one by the seat of your pants Mark

Rushton On the

Other Hand I can just imagine the shocked look on the pilot’s face when he glanced at the passenger next to him, both pair of eyes as big as saucers … nay, as big as dinner plates.

The propeller on their Beaver floatplane had just fallen off, high above the Sunshine Coast last week, obviously not something that happens every day, or for that matter ever, in any pilot’s career!

This was last Monday, and I don’t know who was smiling down on them, but you have to give the pilot incredible marks for a successful ‘deadstick’ landing.

I’m sure there were long and tense moments on the way down to Halfmoon Bay; questions like “who

forgot to install the lock washer?” being the last thing on the minds of the four people in the Beaver.

Talk about an adventure, however!

It will certainly will dominate conversations over the summer barbecue season for those aboard.

The Beaver is an old and venerable stalwart of the bush and floatplane industry, that last one coming off de Havilland Canada’s assembly line in 1967. Its big radial engine provides the power to haul great quantities of product in and out of small and remote lakes and, with wheels, gravel strips.

The last trip I took in a Beaver, its cabin creaking and clanking in the mildly bumpy air, was over Nootka Sound four Julys ago. And many years before when I spent a considerable part of most summers at Pender Harbour, the telltale roar of the Beaver’s engine was unmistakable and often as people flew in and out of the vacation spot on an almost hourly basis.

So despite the prop spinning off last

week, likely on a flight from Pender to Vancouver, and while the vintage of most Beavers is lengthy, they are and will remain a trusted vehicle to get you to and from magnificent places that only such an aircraft, with a highly skilled pilot, can accomplish.

Beginning this past weekend, there is an opportunity to take a virtual aerial ride all across Canada However, for those on the queasy side, at least about taking a ride in a single-engine bush plane, there is still a way to experience those magnificent vistas that make British Columbia and Canada the envy of the world.

Beginning this past weekend there is an opportunity to take a virtual aerial ride, complete with seats that

move as if flying, all across Canada in the old Imax Theatre in Vancouver’s Canada Place.

This film – it is brief by the way – is apparently exceptional and provides a full 360-degree view of vistas that few will ever experience in real time.

I remember how captivated I was with the Telus pavilion at Expo 86 with its ‘surround’ film.

FlyOver Canada, I am given to believe, presents a similar perspective but adds to the realism by actually having your seats move with the camera lens.

I’m certain this will be extremely popular, so if you are intrigued by it and intend like I do to take it in, reservations might be good idea since the theatre only has 60 seats.

You can check it all out at FlyOverCanada.com It may not be an experience like surviving a flight after the propeller flies off, but it should provide a non-perilous look at the wonders of Canada’s scenery that few will ever see. markrushton@abbynews.com

Abbotsford police are recommending assault charges against a 26-year-old man who allegedly attacked a bus driver on Tuesday afternoon.

At approximately 4 p.m. a 50-year-old transit bus driver was stopped at the 32900 block of South Fraser Way, near Bourquin Crescent, when his accused attacker entered the bus.

A b b o t s f o r d Police Const. Ian MacDonald said the driver recognized the man as someone who had caused a problem earlier and had been “verbally abusive.”

The driver refused to move the bus until the man left. “(The attacker) appeared to be exiting the bus but instead started punching the bus driver in the face,” said MacDonald.

The driver was wearing his seatbelt, making it difficult to defend himself.

Several witnesses called the police, but the man had left the scene by the time they arrived.

He is predeceased by his father Robert Elliott and leaves behind his mother Mary Elliott (nee Petrie); sister Jennifer, nephews Zachary, Matthew, Jacob and niece Arianna.

In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Maple Ridge Salvation Army Caring Place.

Condolences may be sent to: www.mapleridgefuneral.ca

Flo died in Mission BC in her 97th year. She was born in Port Alberni, BC where she married Tom in 1939. With their 3 boys they moved to Tahsis, BC in 1951 and eventually settled in Mission in 1954. She worked for many years at Glenn’s Pharmacy.

Flo was very involved in the community as a member of the Women’s Hospital and All Saints Auxiliaries and played with the Royal Canadian Legion Pipe Band. As a pianist from the age of 3 she entertained countless individuals and organizations well into her 90’s. With an energetic zest for life she lived it fully with a flair that was hard to miss. She was well known about town as the “Hug Lady”.

Predeceased by her husband Tom, sons Monty and Nicholas.

Survived by her son Terry (Lynn) of North Saanich BC, 10 grandchildren, 15 great grandchildren and 1 great great grandchild. Also missed

by Brian Appleby of Mission. A Celebration of Life will be held at All Saints Anglican Church in Mission on July 5th at 1 pm.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Mission Healthcare Auxiliary Society, 7324 Hurd St., Mission, BC. V2V 3H5 or charity of choice.

The world has lost a large personality. Don Hannah went to be with his lord on June 25, 2013. He lived life to its fullest no matter what he was doing.

His laugh could be heard far across the land. He will happily be remembered for his social skills and stories. He touched many people, each in a different way. He is survived by his wife Darlene, of 52 years, his two children, Ken (Jovanka) and Patricia (Rick), and two wonderful grandchildren, Greg (Steph) and Karen (Chris). He also leaves behind his brother Jim (Kathy), sister Barb (Terry), numerous nieces and nephews, and too many close friends to name.

There will be no service at Don’s request. In lieu of flowers, a donation can be made to: Transport for Christ 33991 McCrimmon Dr. Abbotsford, BC V2S 2V2 On line condolences to the family may be made to: www.wiebeandjeskefh.com

LORETTE, Clara Maud Mary Ann (nee Kelly) Sept. 25, 1927 - May 27, 2013 ~ Rest in Peace ~ Clara passed away peacefully at Burnaby Hospital. She was loved and will be remembered by friends and family too numerous to mention.

She was a joyful volunteer, a compassionate and patient care-giver, a wise family elder, and loving and loyal friend.

At her request, there will be no service.

It is with a sad heart that we advise that Vivian McVey is no longer with us. She passed away in her bed at Tabor Home surrounded by her family. Predeceased by her parents, as well as her brother Pat Herlihy and husband Stuart (Red), Vivian is survived by her son Paul, daughter Karen (Mark) and grandsons Aaron (Chalan) and Josh. In December 2007, Vivian moved to Abbotsford, to be closer to friends and family, where she lived until her passing.

We would like to thank the management, nurses, care aides and staff of the Tabor Home for their help and support that they provided.

She will be missed by family and all who knew her and called her friend.

A memorial service will be held July 6th at 2pm, in the Assembly Room at 31850 Union Ave, Abbotsford BC. Reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Arthritis Society.

Michele (Mike) Born July 3, 1942 passed away peacefully in the early morning hours on June 22, 2013 in Abbotsford, BC. He is survived by his loving spouse of 46 years, Antonietta (Annette), his children Tom, Maria (Lou), Rosa, his grandchildren Nicholas, Tianna, Jacob, and extended family in Italy and Vancouver. Before immigrating to Canada in 1964, Mike was in the military in Torino, Italy. Once in Canada, he worked hard to establish a better life and when he met a beautiful young woman named Antonietta at a dance one evening in 1967, he knew he had just met his future wife. They married and would have just celebrated 46 years of marriage on June 24, 2013. Mike was a kind, caring, loving and hardworking man. He took great pride tending to his garden. He loved his food and vino, enjoyed cooking and sharing meals with his family and friends. Mike’s generous and friendly personality made you feel welcomed wherever you were. He will be missed by family and everyone who knew him. Although we are sad that he has passed away, we take comfort in knowing that he is at peace and in heaven with those loved ones that have previously departed from us. We know that he will be watching over us.

Diciamo arrivederci per ora fino a quando ci incontriamo nuovamente.

Saluti e buon appetito … mangiare, mangiare.

A private family memorial will be held at a later date.

CLAYTON, Austin Frederick Austin (Fred) Clayton passed peacefully into the presence of his Lord on June 25th, 2013.

Fred was born on April 2, 1919 in St. John, New Brunswick, the second son to Florence and Arthur Clayton, recent arrivals from the UK. The family moved to Vancouver when their home was destroyed by fire when Dad was 6 years old.

Dad grew up helping his parents at the family store in North Burnaby and spent many summers at the family cabin on Bowen Island.

After returning from service in the Royal Air Force during World War Two, Dad learned that his approachable friendly nature was well suited for a sales career, which he pursued at various firms over his working life, providing well for the family he and Mom raised in the Fraser Valley.

While still a young man Dad accepted God’s gift of salvation in Christ and for the rest of his life he modeled humility, compassion and love to his family and those who he worked with.

Dad and Mom were among the first members of Abbotsford (now Sevenoaks Alliance Alliance) Church in Abbotsford, and both set a strong example of Christian service. Dad served in many capacities over the years, but his role as an usher was his passion, greeting everyone and making them feel welcome.

Dad and Mom enjoyed a long retirement, which included travel and much time visiting with friends and family.

Dad is survived by his six children; Daryl (Mary), Bob (Maxine), David (Michelle), Dianne (Bert), Brian (Laura), John (Michelle) and many dearly loved grandchildren and great grandchildren. Dad was predeceased by his dear wife of 60 years Carol, his parents and brother Harold.

The family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to the wonderful staff at Worthington Pavilion for the compassionate loving care Dad received during his time there.

A Celebration of Dad’s Life will be held at 2:00 pm on Tuesday, July 2nd, 2013 at Sevenoaks Alliance Church 2575 Gladwin Rd, Abbotsford.
