King of the Gospel sound

Local musician Ed King gets international award from the Country Gospel Music Association

REGIONAL DISTRICT

Postal bank gets stamp of approval SALLY MACDONALD Townsman Staff

A life-raft proposal advocated by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) could see Canada Post create a bank.

The union has written to local governments across Canada seeking support for a study titled “Why Canada Needs Postal Banking”.

“Having established that there is a need for improved financial services in our country and viable models in other countries, the study concludes by suggesting possible models for postal banking in Canada,” writes CUPW national president Denis Lemelin. “It recommends that the federal government and Canada Post immediately establish a task force to determine how to deliver new financial services, and establish priorities for delivering new products.”

The study looks at five countries with a postal bank: the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Switzerland and New Zealand. Each offers a different combination of banking services, including insurance and mortgages. In Italy, Switzerland and New Zealand, the bank brings in about 70 per cent of the post office’s annual profits.

Last month, local musician Ed King received an international Golden Heart award for International Male Entertainer of the Year.

The award is through the Country Gospel Music Association.

In June, King won Male Entertainer of the Year and Male Vocalist of the Year at the Canadian Silver Heart Awards put on by the association’s local branch. Winning the Canadian awards got him into the running for the international Golden Heart Awards.

Last Friday, King performed with others at the Heritage Inn for an autism fundraiser.

King said the awards put him up against some of the best artists in the country.

“You can’t believe the amount of talent that’s involved in this organization,” he said.

King used to record in Nashville and said the musicians he sees now wouldn’t take a backseat to anybody.

“There’s just a fantastic bunch of talent involved in it,” he said.

“They’re not all old like me. They have young people there. In Martinsville, Saskatchewan there was a kid, I think he was eight or nine, and you couldn’t believe how that kid played five-string banjo.

He was part of a country

There are about 8,000 members in the international association. The Golden Heart Awards were held Oct.

14 to 19 in Missouri.

King has lived in Cranbrook for over 20 years, but most of that time was spent on tour.

King is finishing up a new album and expects to record the final two

tracks in the next week or two.

“I used to record in Nashville, but recording techniques in Canada now are pretty well on par with what’s happening all over the world,”

he said, adding that he records out of Langley, B.C. At the moment he is working with musician Penny Buhr Johnson.

A 21-year-old male from Cranbrook is in custody facing a number of charges for offences committed in Kimberley, Cranbrook and Creston over the past few weeks.

The subject was arrested in Cranbrook for assault with a weapon after an incident on Oct. 29 where he pepper sprayed another male.

During the past few weeks the three communities experienced an unusually high number of thefts — particularly thefts of vehicles. An investigation was being con-

ducted and the subject surfaced as a suspect.

After the arrest, police were able to link him to a number of incidents.

To date the subject is facing 12 charges including theft of vehicles, break and enter, assault with a weapon, assault causing bodily harm, possession of a weapon and theft. The investigation is ongoing and more charges are pending.

The subject is in custody and will appear in court later in the month.

City council mulls freedom to light up Arne Petryshen Townsman Staff

Back in the day you could have a cigarette anywhere you want — at City Hall, in line for the cinema and of course at the bingo hall.

Things have changed and many municipalities have moved for ever more stringent regulations on smoking. In City council on Monday, a delegation of Kerri Wall and Trish Hill from Interior Health, Patti King from the Canadian Cancer Society and Andrea Winckers from the BC Cancer Society presented information on smoke-free bylaws.

The discussion was particularly focused on smoking on the hospital grounds, but also took into account parks and other public places.

“There are quite a few communities in B.C. that have passed restrictions that exceed the tobacco control act legislation the province has,” said Trish Hill.

“Outdoor smoke-free

bylaws are under consideration in Vernon, Sparwood and most recently Prince George.”

Hill said strong outdoor smoking bylaws typically include city managed properties like trails, community plazas, parks, beaches and recreation facilities.

Most communities start out small with protecting children and youth in playgrounds, sporting fields and beaches.

“We can help to customize a bylaw to fit the priorities of the community,” she said.

The criteria for the bylaws depend on the communities. Some have banned smoking altogether, while others have just a buffer zone around playgrounds and parks.

Coun. Angus Davis said he was surprised back when smoking was initially banned in buildings.

“I said they’d ban smoking in public buildings the day hell freezes

over,” he said. “I was involved with the municipality at the time and I was so surprised how quickly and rapidly people agreed to that.”

Davis said he was a smoker in the past and was supportive of the regulations on smoking in public areas.

CAO Wayne Staudt said staff would look at how other communities implemented bylaws before diving in. He added that there was only one person on city staff that looks into those types of things and so it would be added to their list.

Coun. Sharon Cross brought up the issue of the hospital not being able to enforce smoking policy. Hill explained that since it is only policy, it can’t be enforced by hospital security as they can’t compel someone to identify themselves without peace officer status.

Coun. Diana J. Scott said that there is the danger of telling people

too much what they can and can’t do.

“It’s a slippery slope, especially when you’re talking about addiction,” Scott said.

Scott said the hospital is a tricky place,

since many people smoking outside the doors are patients who had to expend a lot of energy to get to the smoking area.

“You have to have a little bit of compassion

too and try to balance that,” she said.

Hill said it is an addiction and the hospital tries to treat it that way, something that in the past was treated as a choice.

“Under no other addiction would we allow someone to go out in minus 20 degrees,” she said. “We would treat it inside and I don’t think we’ve quite made it there yet.”

Police seek witness to fire For the Townsman

Investigation found the fence to the compound had been pulled away to allow access. A witness reports hearing persons cheering when the fire erupted.

Police believe persons have information and ask them to call the detachment (250-489-3471) or Crimestoppers (1-800-222- TIPS).

In the early morning hours of Thurday, Oct. 31, the Cranbrook Fire Department along with RCMP attended a suspicious fire at 301 2nd Avenue South, Cranbrook.

A five-ton GMC tree service truck parked inside a fenced compound was destroyed by fire.

Local NEWS Meadowbrook fights noxious weeds Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff

Meadowbrook Community Association is decrying inadequate funding from the provincial government for noxious weed control.

Earlier in the fall, the group gave a presentation to the B.C. Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services about Meadowbrook’s problem with spreading noxious weeds.

“We have been working collaboratively with personnel of the provincial ministries, staff of the Regional District of

East Kootenay, and private property owners to address the growing infestation,” wrote Robert Johnstone, president of Meadowbrook Community Association, in a letter to the RDEK last month about the issue.

Provincial funding for the control of noxious weeds in the East Kootenay has decreased over the past three years from $469,761 in 2011 to $295,000 this year, the association says.

“As a result, existing infestations are thriving and adjacent areas are being contaminated.”

The association is calling for a partnership between the provincial government, local governments, community associations and individual landowners to educate about the threat of noxious weeds, control noxious weeds and enforce the legislative requirement to address the issue.

The RDEK’s Invasive Plant Program shares in the cost of spraying for noxious weeds on private property. This year, 63 property owners have been approved for this cost sharing.

At the RDEK board meeting on Friday, November 1, Area E

Director Jane Walter urged the board to make noxious weeds a priority.

“The Meadowbrook Community Association has worked tirelessly this summer and the RDEK staff was just wonderful, working with them in their attempt to fight the noxious weeds. Over the summer, they realized there just wasn’t enough funding from the provincial government so they have written this letter.

We as a board have had noxious weed bylaws and right now we are sitting in a not very clear area,” said Walter.

Fernie man stabbed at hotel; police seek witnesses Tow n sm a n S ta f f

A 54-year-old Fernie man is in custody following a stabbing incident at the Fernie Hotel in Fernie. The victim, a 55-year-old male, was treated for non-life-threatening wounds.

On Monday, Nov. 4, at 9:30 p.m., the Elk Valley RCMP responded to a report of a stab-

bing incident at the Fernie Hotel. On attendance police spoke to the victim, who alleged that he had been attacked by a 54-year-old male suspect armed with a knife.

Preliminary findings indicated that the incident occurred in the hotel’s common room.

The victim was able to make his way to the hotel’s

lounge area where he was assisted by staff and patrons.

Investigators also located the suspect, who had returned to his room. He was taken into custody without incident. The victim was transported to the Elk Valley Hospital.

Both men were renters at the hotel and known to each other. The suspect remains in

custody awaiting court process.

Investigators with the Elk Valley RCMP are asking that anyone with information about the incident, who have not spoken to police yet, are to contact the Elk Valley RCMP at 250-425-6233 or via Crimestoppers at 1-800-2228477.

King wins Golden Heart award Continued from page 1 “I do quite a lot of stuff with her on these award shows because we fit together pretty good work-wise,” he said. The title song on the album will likely be “You Raise Me Up.” King plays guitar mostly, and plays solo on the road.

“I was on the road with my five-piece band for over 20 years,” he said. “I played bass. I still have a bass and every now and again I pick it up and play some stuff. But for a solo instrument bass isn’t very good.”

Eventually King got rid of the band, because he said it started to cost too much to tour around the country with a full

band. He started doing a so-called “music minus,” where he plays guitar with a recording of the rest of the band.

His kids are after him to write a book.

“They think people will never believe what I did,” King said. “Well, that’s the reason I haven’t written a book.

They’ll think it’s fiction.

We live in a different world now than when I was on the road. I ran around the country back then for over 20 years. We used to get jobs mostly in the U.S. because there was nothing happening in Canada at that time.

In 2008 King was also inducted into the B.C. Music Hall of Fame.

RDEK likes postal banking Continued from page 1 “The key component for success seems to be characteristics of the Post Office itself, including widespread locations, trust in the institution and staff,” reads the report by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives.

The report suggests that a Canada Post bank could offer savings accounts and low-fee chequing accounts, low-interest credit cards and prepaid debit cards.

Down the line, Canada Post could consider expanding to offer mortgages, small business and agricultural loans, insurance products, mutual funds and stocks, and special new products for low income and Aboriginal people.

At the moment, Canada Post provides some financial services, such as postal money orders, domestic and international money transfers, bill payment, and prepaid Visa cards.

The report argues that the bank would be successful because it would operate out of Canada Post’s existing offices, at a time when bank branches have dropped by 22 per cent since 1990.

“Canada Post has a high trust factor among Canadians, and an already existing skilled

and stable workforce of 68,000 employees, some of whom could easily be trained to handle financial services,” reads the report.

The proposal for a Canada Post bank comes as the federal government prepares to conduct a review of the Canadian Postal Service Charter in 2014. Canada Post has previously indicated that it needs to dramatically cut service to improve its financial situation.

The Regional District of East Kootenay board of directors decided on Friday, Nov. 1, to send a letter to the federal minister responsible for Canada Post to consider postal banking as part of the review of the postal service charter.

“This is a great concept,” said Area B Director Heath Slee. “The UK, France, Switzerland – they all have postal banking services. It’s a great way to preserve our rural post offices in addition to providing a service that members of the public could readily use, which is readily accessible.”

Canal Flats Mayor Ute Juras agreed: “It’s not only bringing more services to our rural areas; it’s also trying to preserve our post offices.”

The new ‘race to Mars’

he Curse of Mars also applies to Asian countries. About two-thirds of the attempted missions to Mars have failed, many of them even before leaving Earth orbit, and most of the rest when they tried to land. Japan’s only Mars mission failed in 1998, China’s first try failed when the Russian rocket carrying its Mars orbiter into space fell back to Earth in 2011 – and so India seized the opportunity to be the first Asian country to go to Mars.

Fifteen months after the decision was announced by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in an Independence Day speech from the Red Fort in Delhi, India’s halftonne Mangalyaan vehicle blasted off from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre on the country’s east coast on Tuesday. It is already in Earth orbit, and within two weeks it will set course for Mars. Unless the Mars Curse gets it, of course.

There is something faintly ridiculous about India and China “racing” to be the first Asian country to reach Mars, but it’s no more ridiculous than the Russian-American space race of the 1960s.

Besides, to be fair to the Indian Space Research Organisation, the launch window for making a relatively low-energy transition to a Mars orbit will close before the end of this month, and it won’t open again for more than two years.

The Indian space programme operates on an amazingly small budget (about $1 billion a year), but it has put

dozens of satellites in orbit that provide practical benefits for earthbound Indians: remote sensing, flood management, cyclone alerts, fishery and forest management, etc. But that’s all in near space; the question is really whether long-range space exploration is a rational proposition.

Nationalism is part of the motivation behind every country’s space programme, and while it has Gwynne its comical side it does at least persuade the politiDyer cal authorities to provide the large sums that are needed. China is planning to land a rover on the Moon next month, and is talking about a manned landing there by 2024.

That will certainly speed up India’s manned space programme.

Like the old Russo-American space race, the Chinese-Indian one will accelerate the development of new technologies and techniques. It will fill some of the gap left by the loss of momentum in the older space powers, and some useful science will get done. But the biggest reason for welcoming the entry of major new players in space exploration is the one that everybody is too embarrassed to mention: the future of the human race.

Well, almost everybody. Elon Musk, the founder and CEO of SpaceX, the private company that aims to dominate the delivery-to-orbit service once provided

by NASA, actually wants to create a human colony on Mars in his own lifetime – and he’s 41 now.

He is a serious player, whose large fortune (derived from his creation and subsequent sale of PayPal) is now devoted to manufacturing electric cars and building space transportation systems.

Both projects are prospering, and he sees them as providing the financial and technological basis for pursuing his real goal: spreading human beings beyond this single planetary habitat while the launch window for that is still open.

Musk was quite frank about that in an interview with Rory Carroll in The Guardian newspaper last July.”The lessons of history suggest that civilisations move in cycles,” he said. “You can track that back quite far – the Babylonians, the Sumerians. We’re in a very upward cycle right now, and hopefully that remains the case. But it might not.

“There could be some series of events that cause that technology level to decline. Given that this is the first time in 4.5 billion years where it’s been possible for humanity to extend life beyond Earth, it seems like we’d be wise to act while the window was open and not count on the fact that it will be open a long time.”

I’ll let you in on a little secret. That is a big part of the motivation (though a rarely admitted part) for half the people who work in any of the national space programmes, including India’s. They value the science, and they may even revel in the glory from time to time, but that’s what it’s really about.

Ice scoring duo land spots on Team WHL roster TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

STRIKING GOLD: The Cranbrook Pee Wee AA FOE Eagles won their home tournament after beating the Kelowna Tier One team in a shootout in the final. The team finished second in their pool, which included a loss to their eventual opponents in the final, but beat a squad out of Lethbridge in the semifinal to book a spot for the championship. Earlier in the Alberta South Central Hockey League, the Eagles won 11 games in a row, their only loss coming against Kelowna in the tournament round-robin action.

Ice cool down Hitmen with 3-1 win TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

There’s wining pretty, and winning ugly, but all that matters, as the cliche goes, is getting the two points.

Kootenay engineered a come-frombehind 3-1 victory against the Calgary Hitmen on Tuesday night, scoring three unanswered goals—two from Jon Martin—in the third period to make it happen.

“We were battling all game and just a really high-paced game, really high-tempo and we ended up pulling through, so it was really great for all the boys,” said Martin, who now has three goals to the season.

Kootenay had an atrocious powerplay— scoreless in five opportunities in the first period alone—but capitalized once in eight chances over the course of the game.

Goaltender Mackenzie Skapski left after the first period to an apparent injury, and Wyatt Hoflin stepped in, allowing one goal in 28 shots.

Kootenay defenceman Jagger Dirk blocked

a slap shot from Jake Virtanen at the end of the opening period and had to be helped off the ice. He returned to the bench in the second frame, and took a puck to the face from a deflection, but finished his shift and stayed in the game.

Virtanen opened the scoring early in the middle period, jumping on a rebound after Brady Brassart threw the puck on net from the sideboards.

Both Reinhart and Martin rang the puck off the post in the second period, while Brassart missed a wide open net on a Calgary powerplay, shooting over the crossbar with a sprawled Hoflin in the crease.

Jaedon Descheneau finally made the Hitmen play for their penalty troubles, solving goaltender Chris Driedger with a low shot at the side of the net on Kootenay’s eight powerplay.

Descheneau’s marker, his 14th of the year, makes him the leading goal-scorer in the Eastern Conference.

Even for 10 minutes, Kootenay pulled ahead with some help off a lucky deflection. Luke

Philp put a slap shot on Driedger during an oddman rush, and the puck deflected off of Martin’s body and across the goal line as he drove to the net.

The officials reviewed the play, but called it a good goal.

“We kind of talked it over on the bench, kind of had it all planned out and were shocked that it kind of worked,” said Martin.

Late in the game, Jaynen Rissling went down—taking Sam Reinhart with him—which freed up Martin, who picked up the puck, waited out Dreidger, and backhanded it in.

As Reinhart got up, Rissling tripped him again, for good measure, but avoided another trip to the penalty box.

The Hitmen pulled Driedger with 90 seconds left in the game and put some pressure in Kootenay’s zone, but Hoflin and the team were able to repel the last-ditch effort.

After Hoflin made a save in the final minute, a pushing and shoving match broke out in front of the net, as emotions from both sides seemed

Landon Cross posted a fight with Joe Mahon in the first period, and also assisted on Martin’s second goal.

“It was a battle all game and it was just coming down to who wanted it more and the guys really showed a lot of heart tonight and it was good to see,” Cross

said.

It was the second straight game where attendance dipped below 2,000.

Kootenay holds down sixth place in the Eastern Conference, one point behind the Oil Kings and Swift Current Broncos, which are tied up for fifth and fourth, respectively.

Ryan McGill will have some familiar faces join him for the Subway Super Series.

The Kootenay Ice head coach, who is assisting Rebels bench boss Brent Sutter for the WHL portion of the event, will get to work with Sam Reinhart and Jaedon Descheneau, who were named to the roster on Monday.

It’s Reinhart’s second appearance on the team, as he suited up against a team of Russian junior stars last year, scoring the winner in a shootout in front of a hometown crowd in Vancouver last year.

Though familiar territory for the Kootenay Ice captain, it’s a new experience for Descheneau, who is ripping it up this season with a team-leading 13 goals and 25 points in 17 games.

The 18-year-old sniper had no idea he was in consideration to earn a spot on the team.

“It’s an honour to represent Team WHL and play against the Russians with a bunch of good players,” said Descheneau.

The two snipers have been paired up for most of last year and into this season, forming Kootenay’s deadliest scoring duo.

Of Kootenay’s 203 goals scored last regular season, Reinhart and Descheneau tallied 65, good for 32 percent of the team’s production. It is even higher this year, as they’ve contributed 43 percent of the team’s offence.

Though there has been a lot of buzz around Reinhart since he entered the WHL two years ago, Descheneau has developed into the league’s most dangerous scorers.

“It’s been a substantial improvement from his first year here,” said Reinhart. “Really excited for him to have this opportunity and it’s really nice to have him come with me for this event.

Hopefully we’ll be playing together, but we’ll

see.

“He really deserves this and I’m really excited for him.”

As a 17-year-old last year on Team WHL, Reinhart wanted to let his play do the talking and put his name out to the Hockey Canada brass that he was aiming for the World Juniors.

This year, he has his sights set on wearing the red and white in Sweden.

“Last year I definitely wanted to get my name in there for the selection and thought I played a good game. I was happy with how things went there,” said Reinhart.

“This year, definitely trying to contribute a bit more, definitely I’m trying to push a little more than last year.”

The two Ice players are joined by other WHL talent such as Morgan Klimchuk (Regina) Curtis Lazar (Edmonton), Hunter Shinkaruk (Medicine Hat) and Josh Morrissey (Prince Albert) — all of whom were first round picks in the 2013 NHL Draft and all will be looking to impress McGill and Sutter for a spot on Team Canada.

“It’s one of the times that a chunk of the guys are together and can show off what they have,” added Reinhart. “It’s nice having Gilly as my coach, so he can see me playing, obviously Brent in the division—those are big games against Red Deer—but this is just another stepping stone that I want to be on the World Junior team, so looking forward to it and playing my best.”

Reinhart’s older brother Griffin, who patrols the blue line for the Edmonton Oil Kings as team captain, was also named to the team.

“Every time I get a chance to play with him rather than against him it’s definitely an nice feeling,” said the Kootenay captain.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My wife and I have been happily married for 27 years. We are both in our early 50s, physically fit and active. My wife looks the same today as the day we married.

She’s extremely attractive. The problem? She has no sex drive. She never really has. But in the past few years, her cold shoulders seem much more pronounced.

We currently have sex maybe once every two weeks. She seems to enjoy it once things get rolling. But when I ask why she prefers such infrequent encounters, she says “it’s too much work” and she “doesn’t have the need for it” like I do. The two times per month are great. But the other 28 days are frustrating. I would like more intimacy in our marriage and have asked her for it. But it doesn’t seem to be an issue with her, and she’s not particularly sensitive to my needs.

Any advice would be appreciated. -- Frustrated in South Dakota Dear Frustrated: Since your wife started marriage with a diminished libido, it’s unlikely to have improved at this point. Please ask her to discuss this with her doctor in order to strengthen your marriage. She should be willing to make the effort, but if she refuses to address this, we hope you will not make sex the focus of your relationship. If your wife has other qualities that make her a good partner, try to concentrate on those.

We know many folks -- male and female -would be thrilled to have sex twice a month.

Intimacy is important, but it isn’t everything.

Dear Annie: As a self-employed hairstylist facing the upcoming flu season, I would like to speak on behalf of all personal service providers. Most of us work on a commission basis and do not have sick leave. If we are not at work, we don’t get paid. If we get sick from clients, we miss work and run the risk of infecting our fellow employees and our families.

Last year my Christmas holiday was ruined when I became sick because clients with fevers dragged themselves to the salon to get their hair done. Several coughed right in my face. They’ve taken every over-the-counter drug on the market and can hardly keep their eyes open, but still think it’s OK to sit in my chair.

If your child is too sick to go to school, please don’t decide it’s a good day to get their hair cut because they’re home anyway.

If you are sick (sore throat, coughing, fever), please respect us and stay home. If you come in anyway, and we can see that you are sick, do not get insulted and storm off when we say we will not be able to perform your service that day. We’ll be happy to do it when you are better. -- Stylist Trying To Stay Well Dear Stylist: Thank you for reminding people that we each have a responsibility to take our health and that of others seriously. If you have a fever, cough, sniffles or other indication that you may be contagious, please stay home. You’ll feel better -- and so will everyone else.

Dear Annie: I’d suggest to “Any Name in Any City” that whatever is going on between her and her husband probably has nothing to do with her weight. I agree with you, Annie, that he is a bully and a verbal abuser.

My husband, an alcoholic, was both verbally and physically abusive to me when I was a petite 127 pounds after two children.

I finally got him into treatment and myself out of the marriage. He dated 13 women in a year and then married a woman twice my size. Something else is going on, and you may never know what it is. Life is short. Get out. -- California Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

In Memoriam

In Memoriam

Remembering our wonderful husband, dad & Opa, Wilhelm Ridke

God looked around His garden And found an emply place.

He then looked down upon the Earth And saw your tired face.

He put his arms around you And lifted you to rest.

Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s garden must be beautiful He always takes the best.

He saw the road was getting rough And the hills were hard to climb, So He closed your weary eyelids And whispered â&#x20AC;&#x153;Peace be thine.â&#x20AC;?

It broke our hearts to lose you But you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go alone, For part of us went with you The day God took you home.

Obituaries James â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jimâ&#x20AC;? John Graham 1960 - 2013

It is with heavy hearts that the family of Jim Graham announces his peaceful passing on Thursday, October 31st, 2013, after a hard fought 3 year battle, then â&#x20AC;&#x153;co-existenceâ&#x20AC;?, with cancer. The family would like to pay special thanks to Dr. Lowden, Dr. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien, Dr. Simons; oncology nurses Val, Dee, Tanya and Deb, as well as the many friends, relatives, co-workers and healthcare team members who contributed to Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health and wellness.

Jim was predeceased by his father Bill (W.E.) Graham (February 2013), his mother Alice Graham (nee Frederickson) in 1997, and an infant sister, Alice in 1953. He is survived by his wife Lori (nee Kaun); children Amy (Kevin Dyer), Jacob (Joshua) and CJ (Sheena); grandchildren Brady and Lochlan Dyer; brother Bill Graham (Melanie), sisters: Helen (Dave Pistak), Margaurite (James Shaw), Bernice (Dale Wesche) and Betts (Brad Vanderhoek); as well as numerous uncles, aunts, cousins, nephews, nieces, and a large circle of friends.

Jim was born in Kamloops on February 4, 1960. The family moved to Cranbrook in 1968 where Jim forged friendships to last decades, and made the most of youthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s innocence. He was happily married over 32 years to his high school sweetheart. For the past 20 years, Jim spent much of his spare time transforming several unassuming acres of forest into a resort-like homestead for his family, friends, and pets to enjoy in any season. Always leading by example, rest and relaxation came when the job-at-hand was finished.

Throughout his life, Jim looked forward to camping trips, skiing/snowboarding, slow-pitch, hockey, fishing and golfing with his best buds.

Showing an early interest in automobiles, teenage Jim started work at a tire shop and later in life he eventually became owner and operator of his own trucking business.

Other employment included CFI, Optimistic Enterprises, and Fiorentino Brothers. When it came to equipment, if it had wheels heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d drive it and if it was broken heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d fix it (donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ask how it broke). Nothing impressed Jim like a hard dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work done without protest, and there was never a problem that couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be solved by re-analyzing the situation after a beverage or two.

Jim was strong, confident, sincere and had a great sense of humour. He was the first to offer support when needed. His many nieces and nephews will remember the unconditional love directed at all those around him, as he was easily able to express the same love he had for his brother, sisters, and in-laws, albeit indirectly.

The unfathomable love Jim had for his family was clear through his actions. This past spring his energy was focused on providing for his loved ones: building a play set for his grandchildren and converting the pool into a maintenance-free deck for his loving wife. One of the many silver linings to Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s illness was the extra quality time it allowed him to spend with his precious little men, Brady and Lochlan. Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quiet strength and subtle passion will remain an inspiration to all who knew him.

A celebration of Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life will be held on Saturday, November 9, 2013 at the Cranbrook Alliance Church at 2:00 pm.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations in honour of Jim made to the Cranbrook Hospice Society or charity of your choice would be greatly appreciated.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service.

DAILY TOWNSMAN / DAILY BULLETIN

Entrance to ‘Incognito’ PHOTOS BY RICK BENDKOWSKI

INCOGNITO – A HIDDEN EXPRESSION OF DARK ART: Mount Baker Secondary School’s art show “Incognito” provided a wonderful and unique experience to the hundreds who came out to the private residence where the show was held on Tuesday, Oct. 28. “Incognito” was a combination of dark art and a play on alter egos with the Grade 12 studio artists’ installation pieces. The students created thought-provoking pieces on what can be hidden and secretive in our lives, in particular in teenagers’ lives. The pieces were set strategically throughout the rooms of the house. Each piece was reflective of the living space it was in. Issues such as lost innocence, eating disorders, mental illness and identity were explored. Students from Grade 10 and 11 also took part.

Installation: Darynn, Missi.

Installation (Eating Disorder): Bruce, Becky

Bedroom installation: Taylor’s group.

Installation: Eila.

Performance art (Mental Illness): Nigel.

Wall display

Installation (“Lost Innocence”): Mariah, Grace, Paul
