Now that the planes have landed and the crowds have dispersed, organizers are saying this year’s Abbotsford International Airshow was a great success.

Jim Reith, the new president of the airshow, said the performances and the attendance were strong throughout the event, which ran Friday through Sunday.

The number of attendees has not yet been calculated, but Reith said that spectatorship was solid for a year without American military planes, which were grounded due to U.S. budget cuts.

“We went out and looked for interesting aircrafts and I think we had a good static lineup…

We had virtually everything that the Canadian Air Force has to offer, either flying or on static display.

“I’m ecstatic on how it went.”

Abbotsford Police are investigating an incident that took place Friday morning in which a young boy who was riding his bike was approached by two men in a vehicle.

Const. Ian MacDonald said the six-year-old was in the 5900 block of Riverside Street at about 9 a.m., when a red 1990s Honda Civic hatchback with a loud exhaust stopped in front of him.

Two Caucasian men were in the vehicle, and the passenger demanded that the boy come closer and give them his bike.

The child ran and located his mother, who attempted to confront the men but they quickly drove away.

Abbotsford Police patrol division officers conducted searches and canvassed neighboring homes and

business, but the suspects were not located.

“The incident is obviously concerning, and the investigation is continuing,” MacDonald said.

“This young boy did an excellent job of being alert, being aware, keeping his distance and seeking help when he suspected trouble.”

The passenger is described as being in his 30s with short brown hair, a beard and wearing a white long-sleeved shirt. No description was provided for the driver.

MacDonald encouraged people to report suspicious activities in their neighborhoods and urged parents to review personal safety tips with their children.

Anyone with information about this incident should call the APD at 604-859-5225 or text abbypd (222973).

A chance for some family time Canuck Place chalet offers Kaitlyn and her siblings a close up look at show Alex BUTLER Abbotsford News

For the Sidhu family, finding time to be together can be difficult. But on Thursday, Amanda and Rob Sidhu of Mission, along with their three kids, Sean, 13, Brittany, 10, and Kaitlyn, 5, got an exclusive look at the Abbotsford International Airshow.

The family attended Thursday’s practice day of the airshow at the Canuck Place chalet where they had front-row seats to the action.

Canuck Place is a Vancouver-based children’s hospice that provides care for families with children suffering from life-threatening illnesses, and is currently building a hospice location in Abbotsford.

The Sidhus’ daughter Kaitlyn was diagnosed with a rare life-threatening condition called semilobar holopresenchephaly – meaning that in utero, the hemispheres of her brain remained joined in areas where they should have divided – leaving her in need of 24-hour care.

The Sidhus’ have been visiting Canuck Place in Vancouver to receive treatment for Kaitlyn and respite care for the family.

“We became a part of Canuck Place to help with pain and symptom management. They did such a great job… It’s been such a bless-

ALEX BUTLER Abbotsford News

Amanda and Rob Sidhu (back row) spend the day with their children Sean, Kaitlyn and Brittany (from left) at the Abbotsford International Airshow at the Canuck Place chalet. ing,” said Amanda.

Kaitlyn, who is non-verbal, had unexplained pain and irritability that concerned her family. The doctors at Canuck Place have been able to help manage her symptoms.

Amanda said that since they began going to Canuck Place, Kaitlyn has become healthier, happier and grown.

“We finally have been able to see the real Kaitlyn.”

On top of providing care,

EVOLUTION PRIVATE MANAGED ACCOUNTS • Disciplined investment approach • Premier portfolio management • Personalized investment strategies-actively managed

tax-efficient investment process • Retirement and estate planning provided

Canuck Place provides the Sidhu family with a place to relax as a family.

“We usually go and stay with Kaitlyn… they are able to bring the family together and give (us) that time of rest and relaxation.”

The Sidhu’s “cannot wait” for Canuck Place to open in Abbotsford.

“It’ll change (our lives) tremendously. There will be that resource so much closer to us … having that right at our doorstep will be

incredible.”

For now, attending events like the airshow gives the family a chance to spend time together, as well as see other families from Canuck Place with whom they’ve developed relationships.

Amanda explained that because Kaitlyn’s health can change quickly, they often lose opportunities for family activities, or have to cancel plans.

“There’s not a lot of times where we get to come out

and do something all together like this,” said Amanda.

Rob said that focusing on Kaitlyn’s health can take a toll on the entire family.

“It’s kind of tough on the other kids, they miss a lot of time… We were in and out of the hospital for a year and a half.”

The Sidhus’ watched the variety of demonstrations during the airshow in the Canuck Place chalet, and received special visits from the pilots, including the Snowbirds.

“This is an experience that we would never be able to do any other time,” said Amanda.

Amanda said her son Sean was the most excited to see the planes, while Brittany enjoys spending time with the other kids. For Kaitlyn, it’s a chance to interact with her family and the other families from Canuck Place.

“I think she just enjoys having so many people around.”

Canuck Place in Abbotsford is currently under construction as part of the David Lede Campus of Care on Marshall Road, adjacent to the Abbotsford Regional Hospital.

It will provide a 10-bed, five family suite, 30,000 square foot hospice, which will double the organization’s capacity and provide a more convenient location for Fraser Valley families.

For the record

Information in an article published in the Thursday, Aug. 8 edition of the Abbotsford News was presented out of context.

The article, on a fatal crash that took place last week on Townline Road, stated that because the driver could not be determined at the scene and roadside testing for impaired driving could not be conducted, the driver would likely receive only a “ticket and a fine.”

In fact, those comments were made

by Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald in reference to what could be the low end of punishments for collisions where the impaired-driving component cannot be proved.

He said that charges of dangerous driving and driving without due care and attention could be considered when there aren’t sufficient grounds to support an impaireddriving charge.

He was not referring specifically to the incident on Townline Road.

Police are still conducting their investigation on the Abbotsford crash and have not yet determined what charges could be laid.

‘Living will’ lawsuit launched Care home is feeding Alzheimer’s patient, despite her wishes Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

A civil suit has been launched on behalf of a woman in the advanced stages of Alzheimer’s disease who is being spoon fed by staff at an Abbotsford nursing home, despite wishes she expressed in her living will.

Margaret Bentley, 82, prepared a “statement of wishes” in 1991, eight years before the onset of her condition, stating that she be fed “no nourishment or liquids” if she were in the advanced stages of Alzheimer’s.

As a former nurse, she had seen what the condition is like, and “she wished to be allowed to die if she reached such a state,” according to a petition filed last Tuesday in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver.

The lawsuit has been filed on behalf of Bentley by her husband, John, and her daughter, Katherine Hammond, who are serving as her representatives.

The pair state that Bentley continued to stress her wishes when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 1999 at the age of 68.

By 2005, John could no longer care for his wife, and she moved into Ebenezer Home in Abbotsford. She was transferred to Maplewood House in 2009.

The petition to the court states that Bentley has been in a “vegetative state” since 2010. She no longer recognizes family members, has not spoken and makes limited physical movements.

“Her eyes are closed most of the time and she lies motionless in bed or slumped in a wheelchair,” the documents state.

In late 2011, Bentley’s daughter, husband and doctor agreed that she no longer be fed food or liquids, in accordance with her living will.

A request was made to transfer her to a palliative care facility, but it was denied by the Fraser Health Authority (FHA).

The documents state that personnel at Maplewood House and representatives of FHA refused to comply with Bentley’s wishes, saying they had received a legal opinion that it would be illegal for them to deny her nourishment and that it would constitute neglect under the Adult Guardianship Act. The petition to the court states that FHA also directed Maplewood staff that if Bentley’s daughter or husband tried to remove her from the premises, the Abbotsford Police should be contacted.

Bentley is now in stage seven – the final stage – of her degenerative dementia, according to the documents.

Refusal to follow Bentley’s wishes amounts to “battery” and a breach of her charter rights, the petition states.

The petition seeks an order from the court that FHA and Maplewood Seniors Care Society comply with Bentley’s statement of wishes that she not be fed and that they cannot prevent her family from removing her from the nursing home.

Her eyes are closed most of the time and she lies motionless in bed or slumped in a wheelchair.

Today’s equivalent of ‘keep your powder dry’ Mark

Rushton On the

Other Hand On these long hot summer days, most of my free time is spent in the ‘garden’ keeping up, or catching up, with the yard work.

And invariably, especially when I’m mowing the boulevard or trimming vines along the fence, people stop to ask for directions: “How do we get to the park; where’s Chadsey Lake; which way to Mission; I’m lost . . . .”

While always helpful, I wonder sometimes “Do I look like Google Earth?”

Today, when virtually everyone has a smart phone I question if they’re not smart enough to use one because almost all phones have maps, GPS and other locating systems.

Click on the “Maps” app that comes

with most phones and not only do you get a diagram of where you are, there’s a bright blue dot highlighting your exact location.

Back off the screen a little and you can find the appropriate route to wherever you wish to be.

Additionally, with Google Earth in your hand you can not only find where you want to go on Sumas Mountain, but anywhere else in the world as well.

These little information wonders, with the correct applications loaded, can among other handy things tell you how far you have walked, how long it took and probably if you hook them up to your body, how fast your heart is beating after the exercise.

There is one problem with most of them however, which to my chagrin I discovered on the morning of Aug. 2 – they are not waterproof.

After a record-setting stretch of sunshine throughout July, sometime overnight Aug. 1 rain broke the month-long sunny spell.

I had, as usual, barbecued and while

waiting for the food to cook checked my iPhone, setting it on a patio table when the steaks were done.

Next morning at about 11 a.m., as I finished writing a newspaper column, I wondered during the downpour where my phone was.

There is one problem with most of them however, which to my chagrin I discovered ... they are not waterproof.

After scurrying about the house I, with a “don’t let it be” thought, looked out the patio door and there it was, looking like a drowned rat.

Recovered from the rain, I tried turning it on. Nothing.

Quick call to the Telus store … explained in horrified tones the situation . . . and was told my only, and slim, hope

was to put it in a ziplock bag of rice for 24 hours.

Into the Uncle Ben’s it went, and the next day I discovered, like the old TVs with rabbit ears reception, it had sound but no picture. I could make it work with my vehicle Bluetooth by telling it who to call, but there was no way to dial on the screen.

And no way to see or use any of my ‘apps’!

This of course being a long weekend, I was stuck relatively phone-less until the following Tuesday when the grim news, accompanied by significant cost, was that the only remedy was replacement.

So remember, on these warm summer days when the pool looks inviting or the occasional rain shower is on the horizon, to make sure that the ubiquitous phone “you can’t live without” stays in a dry place.

As for the rice . . . the dog has been enjoying it as a supplement to his meals.

service providers in the community. A decade ago Community Services became an accredited agency through a provincial audit assuring that all coming to its doors would receive quality service.

The proposed location, at the southeast end of the Community Services property, is an ideal spot. Not only is there built in around-the-clock supervision in the lower floor of the proposed building but there is an immediately accessible array of family and other support services within the Community Services care network.

Re-zoning the proposed property is a contentious issue. While the ADBA has indicated its strong opposition to re-zoning I would sincerely hope that there might be some give on this, hopefully a move towards partnership which would make this even a more successful, community venture.

It is my understanding that should the re-zoning request not receive approval by the city that the province in all likelihood will not consider another site as the approval of the project was tied into the proposed site owned by Community Services. This would mean that the project is dead and that the capital resources and longterm operational funding made available by the province would no longer be available, at least not for many years to come.

This would then mean a lost resource for the homeless and a lost resource for the community, a loss that the ABDA may learn to regret. It would also mean tarnishing an image of inclusion that is so foundational in building community.

M

I am concerned that the vigorous opposition to the proposed housing project is painting an image of Abbotsford that does not fit into its proclaimed ideals of being a progressive, vibrant, inclusive city.

These ideals have been developed over the years by the past “healthy cities dialogues,” Chamber of Commerce symposiums, the “vibrant communities” developments and, most recently, the City of Character initiatives.

I would urge that the ideal of inclusion also include the proposed project for the homeless.

This would be in keeping with what Abbotsford has accomplished with so many other segments of the population over the years and most recently in the realization of the Christine Lamb Residence for women and the George Schmidt Centre for those with addiction problems.

Endorsed by many studies, such inclusion strengthens communities and ensures greater economic stability.

Two factors would make the proposed social housing project a success: the sponsor, Abbotsford Community Services, and the proposed location.

Community Services, established in the late 1960s, evolved into a major multi-service, multifunded community social agency providing a network of care and services to a large, diverse community. The agency became respected in the Lower Mainland and in the province as a leader in the field of community development and in the provision of service. It was sought out as a model by other communities developing similar services.

Over time the local community recognized it as a major institution alongside the many other

Notice of Neighbourhood Information Meeting Proposed Supportive Recovery Use for the property located at 32122 Melmar Avenue

letters Homeless deserve basic rights Grace is something that is given free of charge.

Homelessness, drug addition, physically and mentally ill people deserve to have chicken manure on them by our government and have the police pepper spray their belongings and cut up their tents with knives?

Believe it or not these people are taxpayers too and deserve basic human rights that all Canadians have. A person becomes homeless for various reasons. We as a community need to help each other out! We are a “First World� country.

By helping the less advantaged we teach our children compassion, education, and understanding.

Would it be OK if people walked around with mace and chicken manure in their pockets and shoved

or sprayed anyone they want to because they are having a problem with them?

Go ahead kids throw chicken manure and mace at whoever you want to because you are good taxpayers? Give me a break! Help those who are hurting.

Just remember you could become homeless at the drop of a hat too! We pay for our governments to help us out! Well, do your taxpaying job and do something to help out those in need!

The 5 and 2 Ministries go right into the heart of Abbotsford to ask the homeless ‘How can we help you?’ The answers simple. We need a home and a helping hand up! Not a handout! Heesh!

Toronto police could have done better

In regard to the recent Toronto shooting of 18-year-old Sammy Yatim: After reading the news story and reviewing the videos that were made public, I came to the conclusion that the Toronto police officers that were involved went way overboard.

They seemed to have ignored important aspects of the National Use of Force Framework.

The suspect was at the “Active Resistant� level, mean-

The City of Abbotsford will hold a neighbourhood information meeting regarding an application proposing to re-establish a Supportive Recovery Use (and subsequent Development Variance Permit) for the property located at 32122 Melmar Avenue. In 2007 Council adopted Bylaw No. 1701-2007, cited as “Abbotsford Zoning Bylaw, 1996, Amendment Bylaw No. 528.’ The Zoning Bylaw defines a “Supportive Recovery Use� as: “a residential use providing a supportive and structured environment for individuals recovering from drug and alcohol addiction, before they are ready to move into independent housing; excludes a Harm Reduction Use.�

The neighbourhood information meeting will be held on Tuesday, August 20, 2013 between the hours of 6:00pm and 8:00pm, at Dormick Park Elementary School, 32161 Dormick Avenue, Abbotsford, BC. The public is invited to attend this meeting to learn more information about the proposed application. For more information contact Leah Irvine in the Economic Development & Planning Services Department at 604-864-5619 or by e-mail at lirvine@abbotsford.ca.

ing he was not physically assaulting the officers, but actively resisted commands given by the officers by refusing to comply with the commands/ directions given.

At that point no one, including the officers, were in danger, as the suspect did not attempt to get off the bus. He was standing by the driver’s seat and cursing at the officers.

At this level the officers should have only utilized intermediate weapons (i.e. OC spray,

baton, taser) along with continued tactical communications.

The officers should have also relied on their Crisis Intervention and De-escalations skills to disarm and control the suspect.

None of the above happened.

Rather than following their Force Response Options training, the officers escalated right to the sixth level: lethal force.

Warning: Rise in measles cases

Abbotsford News Tuesday, August 13, 2013

60 women and babies exposed to the virus at ARH

Fraser Health’s chief medical health officer is warning about the rise in measles cases in the eastern Fraser Valley.

Dr. Paul Van Buynder said the most recent case involves up to 60 women and newborns in a post-natal unit at Abbotsford Regional Hospital (ARH) being exposed to the virus by a visitor who was in the early infectious stage at the time.

Public health staff are contacting the affected families directly to offer immunoglobulin to reduce the chance of the infection developing. “The exposure of newborn children to this virus is a very concerning situation.

They are too young to respond to the vaccine and some will not have received protection in utero from their mothers,� Buynder said.

He said this comes after a recent death of a child from pertussis, another vaccine-preventable disease. “It is a timely reminder that not vaccinating children can have consequences for other vulnerable infants.�

Buynder said he encourages everyone who has not yet been vaccinated against measles to contact their doctor or health provider to receive the free vaccine.

Communities that could be impacted include Abbotsford,

Mission, Chilliwack, Agassiz, Harrison Hot Springs and Hope.

Buynder said relatively low immunization rates in some parts of Fraser East have led to several clusters of the virus in previous years; the most recent being in April 2010 shortly after the Olympic Games.

He said the most effective protection against the virus is two doses of the vaccine, which is free to all those born after 1957. If residents suspect they have been exposed or have developed symptoms, they should see their doctor and notify the office before arriving in order to prevent the spread of the disease to others at the clinic, he added.

Measles are highly contagious starting one to two days before symptoms show up and continuing until four days after the classic measles rash begins.

The droplets from coughs and sneezes can remain airborne in a room for one to two hours after the infectious person has left.

It can take seven to 21 days for someone to come down with measles after they’ve been exposed.

Symptoms include fever, cough, runny nose, and red and inflamed eyes, followed by a rash which starts first on the face and

‘Dangerous’ driver sentenced to six months

of the Fraser Valley

Crash killed Kasha Dezainde in January 2011 Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

Kasha Dezainde loved dragonflies, flowers and the colour pink.

On Wednesday, her aunt and cousin wore pendants memorializing these favourites of Dezainde’s, as they attended the sentencing of the young woman who was driving the vehicle in which Dezainde was killed Jan. 30, 2011 at the age of 19.

Stephany Nyl, 20, of Abbotsford was sentenced to six months in prison followed by a five-year driving ban and 18 months’ probation. She previously pleaded guilty to dangerous driving causing death.

“Justice was served today,” Dezainde’s aunt Cori Jantzen said outside of Surrey provincial court after the proceedings.

She held in her hand another necklace adorned with the same pendants that she was wearing. She had wanted to pass it along to Nyl, but didn’t have the opportunity.

Jantzen said the situation is tragic for both families of the girls who had been close friends since Grade 9, often spending time at each other’s homes.

Dezainde had spent the night at Nyl’s on the evening

Kasha Dezainde was killed in a car crash in 2011. before the crash, and they went to church together the next morning.

About 4:30 p.m. that day, Nyl was driving her 1992 Nissan NX hatchback west on Page Road in Abbotsford when she hit a railroad track at a speed that investigators estimated to be 125 km/h.

The impact sent the small car vaulting through the air, sliding across the road and crashing into two trees on the driver’s side.

Alcohol or drugs were not factors in the collision.

Dezainde, the only passenger, was pronounced dead at the scene due to a severe skull fracture. Nyl was airlifted to hospital in critical condition

and spent two months there recuperating from injuries that included a broken collarbone and ribs, bleeding of the brain, a collapsed lung, spleen damage and soft-tissues injuries.

In sentencing Nyl, Judge Melissa Gillespie acknowledged the emotional impact that Dezainde’s death has had on both families, calling it a “senseless loss.”

She said the community as a whole was also impacted by losing such a “dynamic” person.

Gillespie also referenced the “significant remorse” and “emotional devastation” Nyl has felt since the crash.

“She has also lost a friend,” the judge said.

However, Gillespie said she also had to consider Nyl’s “deliberate risk-taking behaviour” on the day of the crash when she ignored the posted speed limit – which dropped from 60 km/h to 50 km/h before the railroad tracks – as well as signs indicating the railway crossing and a bump in the road.

“She should have exercised much more caution and been more prudent in her decisionmaking,” Gillespie said.

Nyl, a single mom, will begin her jail term on Aug. 23. The judge delayed imposing the sentence so that Nyl could make arrangements for the care of her 18-month-old son.

Abbotsford News Tuesday, August 13, 2013

$65,000 in funding for aerospace expo The Aerospace, Defence and Security Expo (ADSE) which takes place in Abbotsford in conjunction with the Abbotsford Airshow, has received $65,000 in federal funding.

The announcement was made on Thursday by Michelle Rempel, Minister of State for Western Economic Diversification who attended the ADSE. The funds, which come through Western Economic Diversification Canada, will support the Expo, a two-day conference that hosts a series of workshops, presentations and networking events. ADSE provides a valuable opportunity for Western Canadian aerospace, defence, security and marine companies to establish new relationships and pursue new business ventures.

“The West is well-positioned to capitalize on the many opportunities available for the aerospace, defence, security and marine industries in the global market,” said Rempel. “As Minister of State for Western Economic Diversification, I’m committed to helping Western Canada be a driving force in our country today and in the long-term.

“The industries represented here at the 2013 Aerospace, Defence and Security Expo are major suppliers of high-quality jobs which ensure longterm economic prosperity for our communities.”

Abbotsford Mayor Bruce Banman said the government’s support is appreciated.

“We have expanded our event to showcase the security sector for our fourth year. This addition will bring added value to our participants as they seek new business opportunities,” said Banman.

Mission festival sold more tickets than last three years The week’s Rockin’ River Music Festival marks the largest the festival has ever been in its five-year history, with advanced ticket sales totaling the last three Rockin’ River festivals’ total sales combined.

So many people have bought tickets to the festival that campers will be visible from the Abbotsford-Mission Bridge.

“This is the biggest party the Fraser Valley has ever seen and having artists like Brad Paisley and Big and Rich headline also makes Rockin’ River Music Festival the best party in the Valley,” said Kenny Hess, the festival’s president.

With the release last year of “Hillbilly Jedi,” Big and Rich reassert their position as modern music’s best party soundtrack with songs like “Party Like Cowboyz,” “Rock “We are thrilled to bring Brad Paisley to the Fraser Valley,” Hess said. the Boat” and “Get Your Game On.” “He is such a huge international act Big & Rich exploded onto the public and his interest in playing Rock- consciousness in 2003 as that rarin’ River Musicfest shows just how est of breeds—true country music much our festival has grown in game changers. stature among the country comThis year’s Rockin’ River Music munity.”

Big and Rich plan to rock it country-style

Musicfest 2013 August 15 - 17

BK: We’re working on a new album right now.

KG: Is it pretty hard to follow up on something like “Hillbilly Jedi?”

BK: It’s pretty hard to follow up something like “Horse of a Different Colour.”

That’s the one that’s pretty hard to follow. When your first album’s as badass as that, you spend the rest of your life catching up to it.

But you never do that. You just continue trying to express yourself in songs the way you feel it. You make the music the way you feel it, and if you’re lucky every now and then it connects with people.

We’ve been very fortunate that our music has connected with a lot of people over a lot of times.

BIG and RICH

Kenny Alphin (Big) of Big and Rich, was recently interviewed by Kevin Gillies of the Rockin’ River MusicFest. The following is an excerpt of that interview.

KG: So you’re recording a new album now?

THE BARON IS CELEBRATING ITS

When you go to a place like Australia, it kind of takes you back. Those people, to them, it’s like “Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy” just came out yesterday.

KG: Yeah, well, you know … it’s kind of a little bit like that here too.

BK: I can’t wait to get there.

KG: You’ll love it here. And you’ll love

the festival too. There’s been some gambling going on about whether “Save a Horse” is going to be the last song played at the festival on Saturday night.

BK: Wow. Good. Everyone will be ready

BK: Oh wow. That’s great. There’s wagering happening. That’s fantastic.

Well that sounds like good B&R style right there. We’re coming up there and kickin’ some fun-lovin’ butt. We’ll have Cowboy Troy with us, and our normal cast of characters. It’s a fun show, so everyone must make sure that they’re very well hydrated by the time we go onstage because there’s going to be such bouncing going on that they’ll need it.

River Festival, what can they expect

and prepared. We’ll blow it out one final time.

KG: When people come up to Rockin’ from Big & Rich?

BK: They can expect to have the time of their lives. It’s a great time. We’re going to play the hits and we’re going to play some new songs. It’s always a jammin’ show. We come out and do it like we mean it. We’re probably a little more akin to something like an AC/DC on stage than we are to maybe

what Brad does or someone like that.

KG: That’s fantastic. So you guys will We’re a rockin’ country band — a very be the very last act of three days of the rockin’ country band. And we have a lot festival. of fun doing it. The audiences always BK: Wow. engage right along with us. It just turns KG: It’s going to be fun. The night be- out to be a party every time.

Crowd smartphones part of light show Downloading special app makes for dazzling display When Brad Paisley takes the stage Friday night at Rockin’ River Music Festival, the crowd will have a unique opportunity to be part of his show.

Paisley’s Wheelhouse Tour uses a computer application enhanced by Wham City Lights to do its lighting.

This enhancement allows synced smartphones to become part of the light show from out in the crowd for a specific song or songs.

It can turn audience members’ smartphones into hand-held lighting effects — and engages guests at any concert or event.

The Wham City Lights apps sync every iPhone, iPad, and Android device in the venue, flashing and changing color to the music.

Light shows can be created for any song — live or pre-recorded — using the color palette of your choice.

All that Paisley show attendees have to

do is download Paisley’s customized Wham City Lights app to their iPhones or Androids to use their phones as part of the light show.

Wham City Lights say they worked with production and marketing teams at Sony Music Nashville to develop a light show for Brad Paisley’s performance at the 2013 Academy of Country Music Awards.

They say Paisley’s “Beat This Summer” tour, which stops at Rockin’ River Music Festival Saturday, uses Wham City Lights for several songs throughout his set.

To download Paisley’s custom app for the Rockin’ River show, go to whamcitylights.com/brad/

Elsay playing at Mill Lake Park Vancouver-based folk group hits the stage Aug. 17 On August 17 from 6-8 p.m. the Envision Concert in the Park Series is presenting Elsay at Mill Lake Park (on the Kariton Art Gallery Stage, 2387 Ware Street) in Abbotsford.

Elsay, a spirited new Vancouver-based folk group, was the brainchild of two Capilano University jazz students with a unique love of Scottish and Irish fiddle music.

They started jamming together in the summer of 2012 as a flute and guitar duo.

The pair discovered an incredible compatibility, and in searching for a fuller sound recruited a fiddler, mandolin player, and a tin whistle player.

Thus was born a fresh new sound in Canadian folk, replete with rhythmic and energetic guitar

riffs, soaring whistle harmonies, and bright fiddling that should get your feet tapping.

For more information about the Envision Concert in the Park Series, including the full concert schedule, please contact the Abbotsford Arts Council at abbotsfordartscouncil@ gmail.com, or visit the website at abbotsfordartscouncil.org.

Architextiles comes to Kariton

A23

Show features works by art group FibreSix

The Abbotsford Arts Council has announced that the next show at the Kariton Art Gallery will be “Architextiles,” a collection of works in fibre art by a group of six local textile artists known as FibreSix. Architextiles consists of pieces that represent both literal and figurative architectural themes.

Pieces by FibreSix member Patt Wilson focus on architectural elements found during her travels, while pieces by Pam Dangerfield explore the impression of the foundation on which architecture is built; concepts such as “built on tradition,” “built on faith,” and “built on power” are given visual interpretations.

Jennifer Cooper’s pieces explore how the Atlantic codfish were one of the instrumental architects in building Canada, while Nancy Riemersma’s pieces interpret lifelike figures of stone, the Inukshuk, which serve as directional markers on treeless horizons and are regarded as among the most important objects found along ancient pathways.

Lilly Thorne drew inspiration for her series pieces from pillars she photographed while in Italy, Greece and Spain, while Gail Hunt chose to interpret seasonal themes of “home” using iconic shelter shapes, house photos of what home means to her.

The members of FibreSix have been meeting monthly for more than 12 years.

They have many years of cumulative experience showing their work, as a group and individually, in na-

tional and international juried quilt and art exhibitions.

Architextiles runs from Aug. 23 to Sept.

17 at the Kariton Art Gallery, located in Mill Lake Park at 2387 Ware Street.

Non-perishable food donations for the Abbotsford Food Bank will be accepted throughout the exhibition.

The gallery’s hours are Tuesday to Friday from noon to 5 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The artists will be present at an opening reception on Sunday, Aug. 25, from 1 to 4 p.m.

For additional information contact the Abbotsford Arts Council by phone at 604-852-9358, by email at abbotsfordartscouncil@gmail. com, or visit the website at abbotsfordartscouncil.org.

S 47 YEARS FOR OVER EY LL VA E TH SERVING

A terrific start gave way to an early playoff exit for the Abbotsford Junior Cardinals at the B.C. Junior Premier Baseball League provincial championship tournament.

The local under-16 squad opened the tourney, held last week at Langley’s McLeod Athletic Park, with a pair of victories. They edged the Coquitlam Redlegs in thrilling fashion in their first game on Thursday, as Tanner Rempel and Branden Gill drove in runs in the bottom of the seventh inning to lift the Abby club to 2-1 walk-off win.

Alex Gibbons went the distance on the mound, registering three strikeouts and zero walks.

Abbotsford followed with a 4-1 win on Friday over the Okanagan Junior Athletics behind another tremendous complete-game pitching performance – this one from John Lipp, who struck out six.

But the North Shore Junior Twins derailed the Junior Cards’ title aspirations at that point.

The Abby squad had a chance to punch their ticket directly to the semifinals with a win in their last round-robin game Saturday, but North Shore, which had finished first in the BCJPBL regular season standings with a 35-9 re-

That meant the two teams were tied for second in their pool and had to play a sudden-death tiebreaker Sunday morning, and North Shore prevailed once again by a score of 5-0. They went on to win the championship, beating Langley 7-2 in the final.

Junior Cards coach Shawn Besse pointed out his team wasn’t intimidated by North Shore – they beat the Junior Twins two weeks ago to end their 21-game winning streak. But the Abby offence sim-

ply couldn’t find traction against the league leaders at provincials.

“We had a great year,” Besse said, alluding to his team’s 26-18 regular season record, tied for third-best in the league.

“It’s disappointing to lose, but we ended up facing the No. 1 team back-to-back days, and that wasn’t going to be an easy task. Our bats did dry up a little bit those two games – we just couldn’t manufacture any runs when we had the opportunity, and that set us back.”

“It’ll be pretty fun to get the season going,” said Virtanen, who departs next week for Hitmen training camp.

BRAKE FLUID FLUSH Corrosion is the #1 cause of brake component failure. Corrosion can pit the metal bores of the master cylinder, and ABS components.

Just like engine oil, coolant and transmission fluid, brake fluid “wears” over time. Not only does brake fluid wear, but the internal brake components also wear, producing “slude”. This leaves the brake system vulnerable to corrosion and compromise.

Taylor keeps ticking along, notches another top-10 finish

Nick Taylor, whose game is as consistently reliable as a Swiss watch these days, reeled off his fourth top-10 finish of the PGA Tour Canada season last week.

The Abbotsford golfer tied for seventh at the ATB Financial Classic, held at Country Hills Golf Club in Calgary.

He carded rounds of 68, 66, 71 and 70 to end up at -13, four strokes

back of winner Joe Panzeri.

Taylor was in a fiveway tie for the lead at -14 with four holes remaining in his final round on Friday, but mustered just three

pars and a bogey the rest of the way. Panzeri, meanwhile, rebounded from back-to-back bogeys on the 11th and 12th holes by notching an eagle on the par-5 13th, and he added a

birdie on the 18th to seal the win.

Taylor’s four top-10 results – in just five tournaments – are the most on the circuit. But he actually dropped from fifth to

sixth in the PGA Tour Canada order of merit after the Calgary event, as Panzeri leaped from 40th to third by virtue of his win.

He’s earned $26,931 this season.

Taylor will try to climb back into the top five at the next event on the PGA Tour Canada slate – the Great Waterway Classic, Aug. 22-25 at the Upper Canada Golf Course in Morrisburg, Ont.

The Valley Rebels saw their season come to an end in the West Coast Senior Lacrosse Association semifinals, as they suffered a sweep at the hands of the Ladner Pioneers.

The Rebels, coming off a 2-0 series win in the best-of-three first round over the North Shore Indians, hung with first-place Ladner in all three games of their best-of-five set.

But the Pioneers proved to be too much, edging the Abbotsfordbased senior B men's squad by scores of 10-7, 10-6 and 11-10.

The Rebels made a valiant comeback attempt in the series finale – trailing 6-3 heading into the third period, they drew to within a goal with 3:32 remaining on Jordan Hernandez's third tally of the game. But they would get no closer, as the Pioneers punched their ticket to the final, where they fell in five games to the Tri-City Bandits.

In addition to Hernandez's hat trick, Sean Kelly also had a huge offensive game in the Game 3 defeat, racking up two goals and seven assists.

Brendan Galbraith (one goal, three assists) and Geordie Wells (two goals, one assist) also chipped in.

After a long battle with illness, Donald Delamere peacefully passed away at Abbotsford Regional Hospital on August 2, 2013. Don was born in Saskatoon on June 25, 1944.

He spent a happy childhood in Prince Albert and after graduating high school in 1962, joined the R.C.A.F. After reaching the rank of Cpl, Don received a BSc degree from the University of Winnipeg and was granted a Queen’s Commission as an officer. Captain Delamere retired after 27 years service to his country.

Don continued to work for defence contractors and later for the Corp of Commissionaires working mostly in White Rock, BC for 12 plus years. Don coached softball and hockey, was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion, a techie, an avid cyclist and Saskatchewan Rough Rider fan, and was best known for helping out people in need. Don was put up for adoption at birth and is predeceased by his adoptive parents Marjorie and Albert Delamere. Don searched and found his birth parents but sadly his father, Donald Roberge had passed before his discovery. Don is survived by his sons, Scott, Shaun (Michele) and Matthew (Nicole), his partner Arlene Mussato, birth mother Helen Schindel, biological siblings, Doug and Elaine Roberge, Barb, Joan, Janet and Judy Schindel, grand-

children Amanda, Andrew, Nicholas, Christopher, Samantha and Tommy. A memorial service will be held at a later date at Chapel Lawn in Winnipeg. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in his memory to the Kidney Foundation of Canada. A special thanks to his Aunt Teri Roberge and to the medical staff at Abbotsford Hospital for their care and compassion.

HARDER Nancy June 15, 1948 ~ August 4, 2013

With great sadness we announce that, after a valiant battle with lung cancer, Nancy passed away peacefully at Abbotsford Regional Hospital & Cancer Center with her high school sweetheart, Stan, by her side. Survived by loving husband, Stan, of 44 years.

Cherished daughters Amy (Richard) Macintosh and Jenny (Greg) Bono, along with five precious grandchildren, Carter, Kennedy, Tyler, Avery and Brooklyn. Her mother, Grace Delong, sisters Elaine (Jack) Rouse, Carol (Abe) Koehn and extended family of relatives, friends. Born Chilliwack, BC during 1948 Flood. Graduated Chilliwack Senior High 1966.

Nurture of family, including raising of two daughters, being devoted grandmother in retirement, defined her proudest achievements. Celebration of life at St. Stephen’s United Church, 7025 Granville St. at 54th Ave., Vancouver August 14, 2013 at 1:30 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Abbotsford Regional Hospital & Cancer Center Palliative Care Unit or charity of your choice.

July 9, 1946 (Kitchener, Ontario) - Aug 2, 2013 (Abbotsford, BC)

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Robert (Bob) Obermeyer after a brave battle with brain cancer. He will be dearly missed by his wife and best friend of 40 years, Joanne, his 3 children Jared, Jocelyn, James, son-inlaw Tyson, and by his 2 granddaughters Kiera and Kiley and brand new grandson Robert, who were the lights of his life.

Bob was an avid fisherman, woodworker, ‘62 Nova restorer and pretty much a jack of all trades. Anything you needed done, all you had to do was ‘’CALL BOB!’’ But above all that, he was an amazing husband, dad, and papa, who would do anything and everything for his family. No one could ever doubt the love he had for his family. He will be remembered for his wit, charm, sense of humor and often inappropriate comments! In lieu of flowers, please feel free to donate to BC Children’s Hospital or a charity of your choice. ‘’We love you to the moon and back Papa!’’

May the fish be biting and your wine glass bottomless!

Mrs. Stella Thiessen, late of Emerson Road in Abbotsford, BC, passed away on August 7, 2013 at the age of 96 at Kelowna General Hospital.

She was predeceased by 2 husbands, 1 daughter, 2 grandchildren, her parents and all but 1 sibling.
