Plaque unveiled at railway station

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

By Wendy Clay A plaque was unveiled on Sunday, April 6 to recognize the historic importance of Salmon Arm’s CPR railway station, built in 1913 and serving train passengers until 1991.

On hand for the unveiling near the station were some of the members of the Community Heritage Commission. From left are Deborah Chapman of RJ Haney Heritage House & Museum, Pat Kassa, Harry Welton, and Alan Harrison, City representative.

Another two plaques unveiled this week are located near two other historic buildings – the old Court House and the old City Hall, which now is the Seniors Drop-In Centre on Hudson Ave.

The train station unveiling took place after the Salmon Arm Branch of the Okanagan Historical Society held its AGM at the Seniors Drop-In Centre. Following the

The Salvation Army British Columbia Division announced it will close its Salmon Arm Thrift Store location as of April 17th due to circumstances beyond the control of the organization.

The Salvation Army Family Services in Salmon Arm will be relocating its services and operation to the vacated Thrift Store location. By relocating services to the vacated space, the Salvation Army will be able to expand current programming and allow for maximum potential.

Additional highlights include a day drop-in centre in conjunction with the Emergency Shelter at night.

The Salvation Army has operated the Thrift Store in the Salmon Arm community for three years and wishes to Thank Thrift Store employees, volunteers, customers and donors for the years of service and patronage.

Captain Sheldon Feener of The Salvation Army New Hope Community Church says, “We are blessed to have a community that not only supports the ministry of The Salvation Army, but actively looks to join in and help us to help others. We are thankful for the services the other thrift stores in our city offer and will continue to encourage and help them in any way we can.

While the closing of our thrift store is a difficult decision, we are confident that expanding our community services will allow us to offer even greater support to those who are struggling and in need of support in Salmon Arm.” At present, The Salvation Army Salmon Arm Thrift Store will no longer be accepting donations. All donations can be redirected to: The Churches of Salmon Arm Thrift Store, 461 Beatty Avenue NW; Hudson Thrift Shop (CMHA), 443 Hudson Ave. NE; and the Kindale Thrift Store, 885 Lakeshore Drive SW.

A celebration of spring

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

Finally, spring has arrived to our area. I always have to remind myself to slow down and savour this time of year, as it seems I am often either wishing all the snow would hurry up and melt, or the mud would dry up or the flowers will hurry up and bloom. I reminded myself early this year that every time I heard myself mumbling “hurry up,” to the snow or the mud that I would stop and take a moment to enjoy the warmth–even if it is a little cooler than normal.

Every day that is above freezing and doesn’t have snow is a good day, and soon enough fall will come and I will be missing the warm weather once again.

Everyone seems to have their spring rituals, such as spotting the first robin of the season or pulling damp leaves aside to see a crocus poking up from the cool earth. Some people polish up their bicycles or motor bikes or summer vehicles; and some, like my mother, search for the first pussy willows of the season. One of my spring rituals is to photograph a robin. Not usually the first one I spot in

the season, but the one that stays still long enough for me to photograph it. As well, I go around and check all my young fruit and nut trees to see if they have survived the winter; plus I check on and feed the honeybees to get them ready for the season. I also polish up my lawn tractor and buy propane for my barbecue.

This year, when the snow had finally receded enough for me to get into my garden shed, I went inside to grab some plant pots I had stored last fall. When I stepped into the dimly-lit shed and let my eyes adjust, I couldn’t believe the mess! Evidently a squirrel had made his home in there over the winter and there were piles of pinecone bits everywhere. There was also a small pile of foam chunks that had been torn from the cushions of some deck chairs I kept in there. Obviously it was building a nest.

Not being too happy that my deck chairs were damaged I lifted one up to inspect it further.

Suddenly, in the half-dark, the squirrel, who was apparently still in there, jumped out and started yelling at me and I almost fell over backwards, I was so surprised. I backed out of my shed and then waited a bit before I snuck back in to claim my plant pots. I think I will just leave the squir-

Walking and photographing in the various parks around town, I have noticed that people are happier with the coming of the warm weather. Their smiles light up their faces as they walk and play in the parks with their families. The spring air might still be a bit cool, but only a light jacket is necessary to take a walk outdoors and enjoy the wide variety of nature in our area.

The warmer weather offers all sorts of new opportunities for photography, including practicing macro photography on new shoots and flowers and pussy willows.

I always like to go and find various birds to photograph; one of my favourites being the redwinged blackbirds who are so prominent as they defend their territory from intruders. It takes a good zoom lens and a very steady hand to photograph some of these birds, which may not stay in one place long enough to set up a tripod. Be sure to not disturb the birds as you photograph them, and never go near their nests. They have enough natural predators without people causing them problems.

Whatever and however you choose to celebrate spring, be sure to try and get outside and take in the warmth and fresh air. Take the time to inspect the new flowers and give them a smell as well.

Healthy bacteria–the good guys

When it comes to supplements that support our health and well-being, one of the most recommended in my practice has always been probiotics. We encourage everyone to consume sufficient amounts of probiotics for general health maintenance and promotion. We also have countless numbers of patients experience a significant reduction in digestive ailments and bowel disease, allergies, and inflammation. Over the next few articles I want to explain more about this important aspect of a healthy lifestyle.

Researchers estimate that there are upwards of 100 trillion microorganisms found in the intestinal tract. This is 10x the number of cells that make up the human body.

These bacteria are not only essential for proper function of the digestive tract, they actually have an impact on the health of nearly every other part of the body.

The bacteria found in the intestine are essential for proper immune function through a number of ways.

When there are sufficient numbers of healthy bacteria (good gut flora), they produce a “barrier effect” that blocks the growth of harmful yeasts and bacteria. The healthy bacteria also produce lactic acid which acts to acidify the intestine, again making it less hospitable for invading harmful bacteria and viruses. What is also being discovered is that there is a very complex communication between the intestinal flora and the immune system. Healthy bacteria inform the body when an invading organism is present, which in turn activates immune cells to attack.

The healthy bacteria also create a protective layer in the intestine that

further helps to block the nasty bugs from being able to enter the rest of the body. This good bacteria also produces vitamins and healthy fatty acids and aids in the absorption of minerals such as magnesium, calcium, and iron. Research shows this bacteria can even help control body fat levels and eliminate cancer causing agents that enter the digestive tract. So, what does all this mean...? It means that daily supplementation with a good probiotic is essential for good health! We overload our bodies with toxins and processed food on a daily basis which destroys all the “good guys” (healthy gut flora). In order to maintain good health and fight viruses and sickness, good gut flora must be regenerated each day.

To obtain healthy gut flora you may do one of two things (or a combination of each): Take a probiotic supplement every day. (We sell an excellent quality probiotic in the practice called Dr. Mercola Complete Probiotics 70 Billion CFU.) Prepare and eat fermented foods.

I will get into this in much more detail in next week’s article.

With all of these amazing benefits, it is not hard to understand why we need to look after this aspect of our health. In my next article I am going to discuss how to ensure we maintain sufficient levels of these healthy organisms in our body and directions on how to prepare your own fermented foods.

To make chiropractic part of a healthy lifestyle call Dr. Warren Gage at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic at (250) 803-0224 for an assessment today.

Calcium absorption

We know that calcium is important for bone health and Vitamin D helps with absorption of calcium. However there are other ingredients that interfere with calcium absorption. Most of us know which foods are good sources of calcium; however it is equally important to know what reduces the calcium levels in our body.

Aluminum hydroxide is an ingredient found commonly in over the counter medications (OTC). These OTC medications are most commonly used in the treatment of conditions like heartburn, gastritis, and peptic ulcer. When buying OTC products we should read the ingredient label carefully before so as to know exactly what they contain. As for example if we take antacids containing aluminum hydroxide then we are loosing out on calcium.

Aluminum hydroxide increases calcium loss via urine and stool. On the other hand there are types of antacids available that contain calcium or magnesium instead of aluminum and these do not interfere with calcium absorption.

Some prescription medication like certain antibiotics, anti- convulsion drugs or steroids can decrease level of calcium as well. High intakes of sodium, caffeine, or protein cause an increase in the urinary excretion of calcium.

Sugar and phosphoric acid found in soft drinks, have also been linked to interfere with calcium absorption. A 12-ounce cola or Pepsi may rob the body of as much as 100 milligrams of calcium. High-fibre diets or laxatives can interfere with calcium absorption, so it’s best to take them at different times. Oxalic acid, found in spinach, beets, celery, pecans, peanuts, tea and cocoa, can bind to calcium and form an insoluble complex that is excreted in the feces. While research studies confirm the ability of phytic acid and oxalic acid in foods to lower availability of calcium, the decrease in available calcium is relatively small.

Besides taking enough calcium for bone health, it is equally important to know what prevents calcium absorption and loss.

Easter Spring Fling

Community rallies for Megan

Four-year-old Megan Leverrier, daughter of Corporal Jaimie Leverrier of the Salmon Arm RCMP detachment, was recently found to have a large tumour on her liver.

She was sent to Children’s Hospital in Vancouver where the family has been for the past few weeks.

Another tumour, possibly cancerous, has been found within the large tumour, in addition to other medical complications. The type of tumour Megan has is very unusual and will require special treatment. Megan may require a liver transplant and the family is expected to travel to Children’s Hospital in Toronto, where they may be required to stay for several months.

Fundraising has begun to assist Megan and the Leverriers during this difficult time. A fundraiser at

the Hideaway Pub last Saturday night was a huge success, with just over $3400 being raised through the sale of food/drink, 50/50 draw, etc., and a crowd of more than 200 filing the space to standing room only.

A trust has been set up at Salmon Arm Savings and Credit Union.

Those wishing to donate to the “Jaimie Leverrier Fund” can visit any branch of the Salmon Arm Savings and Credit Union to do so.

E-Transfers can also be sent to mike.dibblee@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.

RENTS ARE TOO HIGH FOR MANY SENIORS. I SUGGEST THEY SHARE A HOUSE Because I manage rental apartments, people are stopping me to complain. They say more inexpensive rentals are needed in Salmon Arm, because seniors and people on disability pension cannot afford the rents being charged today. The government should build some, they say. What is the problem? Seniors are living longer, and their pensions are not keeping up with the cost of living.

One solution is for a senior who lives alone in a big house, to rent bedrooms to other seniors of the same sex.

They can have one meal a day delivered to the house, or they can take turns cooking. But most people want privacy. And they have trouble parting with their stuff so they want to rent an apartment. They might have a precious pet and most rentals do not take pets.

SENIORS, START SMALL. RENT ONE BEDROOM If you are a senior who lives in a house and has an extra bedroom that can be rented for $400 or more, here’s how to start: downsize your space because nobody wants to live with a hoarder. Then empty the bedroom to be rented, and leave only the bed with a good mattress, dresser, bedside stand and chair. The renter may bring some furniture. Have the renter supply bed coverings and towels.

Many seniors enjoy watching TV in their room, and some may want a WiFi internet connection. Have a rental agreement which both of you will sign. I can help to prepare an agreement for you that will have your mailing address for the renter to use.

(Zoomer magazine) FUN AT A TIM HORTONS’ SUMMER CAMP FOR TWO SHUSWAP SCHOOL STUDENTS Do you ever wonder where your money is going to when you buy your fourth coffee during Camp Day at Tim Hortons? Two students from Shuswap Middle School, Eitan Davila-Madrid and Colton GreavesKarpenko, gave trustees at a school board meeting an insider’s glimpse at what it was like to be chosen to go to camp.

Shuswap Middle School received notice it could send two boys to a Tim Hortons’ camp in summer 2013 at Kananaskis in Alberta. For the two boys selected this was the beginning of new adventures. It was the first time Colton had been in an airplane when they flew from

Kelowna to Calgary, nor had either boy ridden a horse, went rock climbing or white-water rafting. Colton discovered he was good at rock climbing and Eitan was good at archery.

Colton was awarded most popular camper. When he first arrived, he talked to only a few people but by the end he had made lots of friends. As part of the camp, the boys earned beads of different colours for their achievements in teamwork, helping the environment, friendship, courage and respect. Both boys earned a complete set.

The two told school trustees they really enjoyed their time at the camp and when later questioned by trustee Debbie Evans, both replied that they would love to go back as counsellors when they are older. The boys are in the Mandela Project which is held at the Downtown Activity Centre, and targets young people in a community who need support in many different facets of their life.

It is funded by the federal government.

School District 83 Director of Instruction Wendy Woodhurst thanked local Tim Hortons’ owner Kelly Moores, who was in attendance at the meeting, and all the people who played a role in allowing these “two great guys to have this experience.”

Kylee Kok, a learning resource teacher/counsellor at Shuswap Middle School, commented that this year the school has received four spots for Tim Hortons’ Camp, two at spring and two at summer.

(Zoomer magazine) CHASE WOMAN OPENS NEW RESTAURANT IN CENTENOKA After a year with no full-serve restaurant, Centenoka Park Mall has one in the former Carri’s, across the mall from Safeway. Its name is The Eatery at Centenoka and it is owned by Lorrell Russett of Chase.

Lorrell lived in Salmon Arm for three years as a teenager, and worked at Smitty’s. She moved to Chase and years later she met Allan Anderson whom she eventually married and they built a home in Chase. Lorrell ran the Gateway Restaurant at Petro-Can in Chase, and cooked at the Quaaout Lodge for 10 years. For the past five years she worked on and off at different jobs, and in October she began considering a restaurant in Salmon Arm. She ran into a salesman who calls on restaurants and he suggested she contact Lance Johnson at Centenoka, which she did, and the rest is history. Kitchen equipment

was upgraded, the flooring was changed, and new tables and booths were added. It was a complete renovation, says Lorrell. The Eatery opened at the end of March.

Hours are 8 a.m. to mall closing six days a week, and Sundays 9 to 4. Lorrell drives in from Chase every day, accompanied by her 21-year-old son Bradley Anderson who cooks, and two full-time waitresses whom she met at one of her jobs in Chase.

UNNECESSARY MEDICAL TESTS Choosing Wisely Canada is a campaign to help physicians and patients engage in conversations about unnecessary tests, treatments and procedures. It was launched April 2, 2014. Nine national medical organizations participated in the first phase of Choosing Wisely Canada.

Its aim is to provide good care and avoid unnecessary tests and procedures. Dr. Wendy Levinson is the founder of Choosing Wisely Canada, and is a faculty member at the University of Toronto. The Canadian Medical Association is a lead partner in the campaign. www. choosingwiselycanada.org The first list of 40 tests, treatments and procedures that patients do not need included a pap test of cells of the cervix. Teenaged girls and older women usually don’t need them. The other unnecessary treatment is an antibiotic prescription for sinusitis which often follows the common cold and hay fever. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831 The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of Sally Scales and do not necessarily represent those of Lakeshore News and its staff.

Letters to the Editor

Fingertips will never be the safest method of breast cancer detection

I read the Lakeshore News every week and I have to say, I’m getting really tired of Mrs. Scales going back and forth with the town on this mammogram issue. I believe the nurse’s rebuttal a few weeks ago [Shirley Buksa, who had a letter in the Mar. 7/14 issue of Lakeshore News] hit the nail right on the head, and Sally Scales’ last comment was just too much to not say anything. In the March 28th article, she states “Long before there was a push for women to have a mammogram every year or two, we used our finger-

tips…”. When we started checking for breast cancer, all we had were our fingertips, and although it can work, it will never work fast enough. It will never be the safest or the most effective way to keep “the girls” safe. EVER. Not all old-time methods work as well, if at all, like they used to! We also used to prescribe heroin for chest colds!

The medical world has grown and adapted and so should we. As for the radiation, people dealt with that from microwaves and x-ray machines without adverse side effects.

They’re only asking for one every year or two, not every two months.

I’m not usually the one to push people to go to doctors more, but this is a different issue. This is life and death.

Working for you

The Legislative session began last month with our government presenting our Throne Speech outlining our vision and plan for the upcoming session. We also presented our second consecutive balanced budget, fulfilling the commitment we made to the people of British Columbia to maintain our AAA credit-rating, and keep our provincial finances in the black.

So far, a number of pieces of legislation have been introduced to the Legislature, including the Off-Road Vehicle Act, streamlining the registration process for off-road vehicles while ensuring that our pristine backcountry is protected. Our government has also tabled the Water Sustainability Act, a long-term plan to protect our most valuable resource on earth.

I had the privilege to stand in the house several times, one of which was delivering a response to Balanced Budget 2014, and two private members’ statements: one recognizing B.C. Restaurant Week in February, and the other congratulating the organizers of the 2014 Kamloops Tim Horton’s Brier. I also delivered a statement to the house on how our government is helping promote employment opportunities throughout British Columbia.

However, when the Legislature isn’t sitting, my schedule is just as busy. Whether it’s meeting with stakeholders in my role as Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Jobs, Tourism, and Skills Training, responsible for the BC Jobs Plan, or of course working for you back home in the constituency.

In the short time since being elected, I have found that connecting with residents, local offi-

Have you ever been to an NHL game and seen the little kids playing hockey during the first intermission?

Well, my seven-yearold Nate and his hockey team were chosen to do just that at the Canucks game last week.

Our head coach applied back in the fall, and low and behold, our team was chosen. The real cool thing for our family was that all four of our boys’ teams have been chosen over the years to play at Canucks games. Coming into this season, we really didn’t think it was going to happen for Nate, but we got lucky once again.

The Canucks provided tickets for the coaches and players, reserved a section of tickets for parents to purchase, and even chartered a bus to pick us up in Salmon Arm and drive us to the game and back. Overall, the Canucks organization was extremely generous and first class in the way they treated us.

Fortunately I’ve been

on enough of these bus trips with hockey teams to realize you get there early and grab a seat close to the front and as far away from the bathroom as you can. This couldn’t have been truer on this trip, as on the way down we were having some issues with the toilet and the smell was something to behold. It was fine on the drive home, so I am assuming the bus driver worked his magic, or perhaps I was just too tired to notice.

We arrived early so we had some time to waste before they would let us into Rogers Arena. Despite consuming a cooler full of food on the way down to Vancouver, my boys wanted to go find someplace to eat. So the kids from Sleepy Hollow Salmon Arm got to experience “city life,” which was eye-opening for them, to be sure. It wasn’t just escalators that were a shock to them, but observing the diversity of people.

We missed half of the

actual Canucks game getting dressed and undressed out of hockey gear, but a highlight was when the Canucks mascot came into the change room for a visit.

The kids were only on the ice for three minutes, and all 16 kids were on the ice at the same time, so it’s quite the mad frenzy!

As soon as the game was over, we loaded up our gear, hopped back on the bus, and drove back home arriving at around 3:00 am.

Overall, the smile on the kids’ faces overshadowed the Canucks losing the game, the exhaustion of a whirlwind trip and the parents having to spend $50 for a couple of hot dogs and drinks.

However, thanks to the Canucks’ generosity, overpaying for a few hot dogs was still a very small price to pay for what was an amazing experience for the kids.

cials, and community organizations that do great work here in the Shuswap is one of the most rewarding parts of being your MLA. In just one day of touring Enderby, I had the opportunity to meet with so many great constituents. The visit included visiting City Hall, touring North Enderby Timber to learn more about their manufacturing facility and the economic impact they have on our region, and meetings with several non-profit organizations to discuss how they benefit the community and how our government can help. I also had a quick trip to Armstrong to visit the wonderful folks at the Armstrong Museum to see their good work in the community, dropped into the Chamber and the Armstrong Advertiser.

Also during the constituency week I was invited by the Ministry of Transportation to get an update on the construction progress at the Hummingbird Creek Bridge site. It really does go without saying; it has been an immense pleasure serving as your MLA representing the Shuswap in the Legislature. I am looking forward to another busy month ahead as we continue to debate legislation and deliver good government to the people of British Columbia.

As always, I welcome your feedback. Keeping connected to the issues and concerns of constituents is always my top priority as your MLA. Please feel free to contact our office at 250833-7414 or toll free, 1-877-771-7557, and we will gladly assist you.

New location; same groomers It’s a new name, new phone number, and new location but the same gentle and experienced groomers.

Karen Taylor (left) and Bev Pickard (right) have opened Clip & Tails Grooming at #40 - 17th Street S.E. (halfway up Okanagan Ave). Previously they ran this business from the Shuswap branch of the BC SPCA and were known as The Groom Room and Dog S’Paw. At their new location (which is also the first floor of Bev’s home) they have a custom built studio filled with new state-of-the-art grooming equipment. There is a big tub, a drying area, three grooming tables and a clipper vacuum system.

“The clipper vacs greatly reduce the amount of dander and hair splinters your dog comes home with, which is great news for allergy sufferers,” says Karen.

Karen originally comes from Lillooet. She and her husband, Chris, came to Salmon Arm from Langley as he was transferred from one Rona store to this one. They have two teenage sons.

Karen took her grooming training eight years ago and then apprenticed under a master groomer. Bev has been grooming for six years, learning from Karen.

They both do animal first aid, and Bev is the Team Commander for CDART Shuswap [Canadian Disaster Animal Response Team]. If there is a disaster, Bev is in charge of coordinating volunteers to deal with house pets and hobby farms animals.

Bev grew up in Turtle Valley. Her husband, Kevin Smale, has DA Landscaping Inc. Karen and Bev continue to support the local SPCA branch by providing free grooming for shelter animals, fostering, donations and promotion of shelter animals for adoption.

To reach them call 250-832-7879 or email: clipandtailsbc@gmail.com or visit their Facebook page. They groom cats and all breeds of dogs up to 85 lbs.

Revolution Body Graphix Last year she opened her store on Hudson, but now Tracy Bulmer (right) has moved Revolution Body Graphix to Centenoka Park Mall.

Originally her brother owned the tattoo shop in Fort Nelson and he moved the business to Vernon. Tracy bought the business from him and moved it to Salmon Arm. “I just happened upon

PET

of the MONTH

this place and I loved it, something kept telling me to move here,” she says.

Tracy is from Fort Nelson but grew up in Peachland.

Before she bought the store she had various jobs including working with at-risk youth and at a woman’s shelter.

Three tattoo artists work at the store: Randal, Amber and Jay (who can do magic tricks, and suspension hanging) and a store manager.

They sell a variety of items: local hand-crafted jewelry, piercing jewelry, hats, skateboard stickers, and high-end designer jeans. Tracy is a Christian and offers a wide selection of Christian literature and art as well.

They also do embroidery and silkscreening and are the exclusive retailer for Dangerous Clothing brand name.

They also have a vintage rack with items going as far back as the 70s including items from Victoria Beckham’s first line.

Phone 250-463-3882 or email: revolutionbodygraphix@gmail.com

T-Cycle Mobility Mark Gaudreault (above, with daughter Jayca) has opened T-Cycle Mobility Scooters in Centenoka Park Mall. It has a good selection of electric scooters: four-wheelers to help seniors keep their independence and two-wheelers that anyone can use to get around the city in an environmentally-friendly (and economy-friendly) way.

“I think it’s important to cut down emissions and help the environment. That’s a big reason I got into this business,” he says.

There are also wheelchairs, walkers, and canes, as well as a great selection of in-home health-care aids.

Mark, who has been dealing with scooters for four years, also does servicing and repairs.

Mark grew up in Peace River, Alberta and has lived in the Shuswap area for 18 years. He has two daughters, Jayca and Sahara, and is married to Mili.

(When Mark is busy with his other jobs you will see either Mili or Jayca in the store).

Mark’s first job was a delivery boy for the IGA in Peace River: “I was helping seniors with their grocery bags – I was into mobility even then!”

He also does freelance construction and drives for the local taxi company.

T-Cycle Mobility is located where Findlay’s used to be.

They get a fair number of people in the store who are looking for vacuum cleaner bags/parts or needing repairs. Mark is thinking of getting into that as well.

The Eatery If you’ve lived in Salmon Arm long enough, you will remember the Eatery that used to be on Alexander Street.

It’s no coincidence that Lorrell Russett named her new restaurant in Centenoka Park Mall in honour of the original. (Pictured below, from left, Tara, Keisha, Lorrell, and Matthew)

“I got the name from that restaurant. It used to have the best sandwiches and soups in the world.”

With the exception of a brief period in her life where she did construction cleanup (at Carmel Cove in Blind Bay), Lorrell’s whole working life has involved restaurants.

“My first job was at May’s Cafe. My mom cooked there and I was a dishwasher - I made $2.40 an hour.”

Lorrell also worked at Smitty’s as a waitress but then her family moved to Chase. She ran the Chase Petro-Can restaurant before it was A&W and cooked in various seniors’ facilities. For the past 10 years Lorrell has worked off and on at the Quaaout Lodge.

Some of the signature dishes at The Eatery are the homemade soups and the fish & chips, which is topping the popularity charts. Breakfast is served all day.

Their hours are longer than the mall hours: MondayThursday & Saturday 8:00 a.m.– 5:30 p.m.; Friday 8:00 a.m.– 7:00 p.m and Sunday 9:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.

Free book & ephemera appraisal Hidden Gems Bookstore is having another free book and ephemera appraisal day on Saturday, April 19th, from 10:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m. Bernie Spring from Antiquarius [www.antiquarius.com] will be at the store and available to give free appraisals and answer questions related to books and ephemera (all old paper products-old music sheets; old post cards; old photos; etc.) Bernie had a book store for many years in Vancouver and is now living in Falkland.

For the past five years he has come to Hidden Gems twice a year for this fun and informative event.

Congratulations to: Nicole Bird and Mark Mason for earning their BC Land Surveyor Commission through British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT). Nicole and Mark both work at Browne Johnson Land Surveyors.

MMBC regime should be recycled

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

By Kelvin McCulloch, CEO, Buckerfields A few months back, I received a notification which advised me that I had to declare whether Buckerfields was a ‘producer’ of printed paper or packaging material.

If so, we would have to implement an ‘approved stewardship plan’ to deal with the material. Otherwise we would have to join another ‘stewardship plan’ and pay fees to that plan holder. I thought it was a scam. But I looked into it further and determined that there was indeed regulatory provisions in effect which stated this very thing and according to the regulations, Buckerfields is now a ‘producer’ of printed paper and packaging material, with the best example being our Buckerfields feed bags.

I then discussed the alternatives with a Ministry of Environment official and came to realize that we had no choice but to join the only approved stewardship plan in the Province, MMBC. We signed the MMBC contract.

But we also read it. And it stated that MMBC had to file audited financial statements on its website. I recently went to the website and there are no audited financial statements.

Now, several months later, I have discovered the following: • MMBC is a corporation under the Societies Act comprised of three Directors, two of which live in Ontario. None of the Directors have public sector credentials. All of the Directors represent large corporate interests.

• MMBC is not accountable to any government agency, appointed official, elected official or any other government body other than the Registrar of Companies under the Societies Act • MMBC is not governed by the Province’s Financial Administration Act which sets out the rules for the administration of all public monies.

• None of the monies collected by MMBC, including the fees Buckerfields is supposed to pay go to the Public Accounts of the Province or any other government organization.

• MMBC is not subject to oversight by the Auditor General of BC • Under MMBC’s ‘stewardship plan’ as approved by the Provincial government, MMBC has the authority to charge companies like Buckerfields unlimited fees based on whatever MMBC spends, regardless of what the actual costs are to recycle our feed bags and regardless of the fact that we already pay

municipal taxes in all eight of our locations.

• MMBC has the authority to come into any municipality in the Province and offer financial incentives to the locally elected government to do what MMBC wants in the area of waste collection and recycling; if the locally elected government refuses, MMBC has the authority to do what it wants anyway.

“We are being taxed twice for the same service.”

• The municipal governments of the province do not know the background of MMBC and don’t yet realize the fees that MMBC is charging to Buckerfields and all the other companies amounts to double taxation • The municipal governments are going to have to give up that tax base they have for waste collection and recycling because the shift to ‘producers’ paying directly for waste collection and recycling eliminates the need and justification for ‘consumers’ i.e. property tax payers to pay for these services through the municipalities.

• The Provincial government did not consult with the municipal governments or the public but companies like Buckerfields are pointing it out because until it is resolved, we are being taxed twice for the same service and residential taxpayers (including me) are being taxed for something that someone else is actually paying for.

• Taxpayers and municipal governments were not consulted as to whether they really want to shift the financing and control of municipal waste and recycling services out of the municipal jurisdiction, that is, the jurisdiction of democratically elected municipal officials into the hands of a corporation under the Societies Act that is accountable to no one and is outside the jurisdiction of the Provincial Auditor General • Taxpayers and voters are unaware that the fees being charged by MMBC are so onerous that they will cause newspaper closures and job losses of 300-500 in the newspaper industry in British Columbia, even though recycled newsprint is actually very

valuable.

In finding all this out, I lament the fact that none of this was introduced into the legislature for proper debate because it means that instead of spending my days managing the sale of chicks and garden supplies at Buckerfields, I have to spend my time trying to revive democratic processes in British Columbia, retroactively. I find it appalling.

My position as of the time of this writing is this, we ain’t paying a dime to MMBC and neither should anyone else, not until: • The provincial government reconciles what it is doing with the municipal governments and municipal taxpayers so that taxpayers don’t have to pay twice.

• The provincial government takes back the legislation which calls us ‘producers’ and ‘blames us’ for the choices made by manufacturers and indeed consumers that are completely outside of our control.

• Any monies charged under the auspices of the Recycling Regulation are included in the Public Accounts of the Province and subject to the provisions of the Financial Administration Act and the Auditor General Act. • Whatever is going to be done is introduced into the Legislative Assembly in the form of a Bill so that the proper public debate can occur.

• Insofar as MMBC has not filed its audited financial statements since inception, and the period of time not reported spans more than two years, and insofar as MMBC is actually a taxing and funding agency, there should be an independent public enquiry into the financial operations, sources and uses of funds, contractual procedures and expenditures of MMBC. No, Buckerfields is not paying a dime until this cash and power grab is unraveled and revealed for what it is.

One final word, 96% of all printed paper and packaging material is already being picked up or deposited into municipally financed facilities. Despite what MMBC is saying, at least 53% of that is already being recycled and it is very likely that that number was seriously understated to give the government a reason for its MMBC cash and power grab. In reality, there is no basis for setting up a recycling dictatorship and charging punitive fees to companies like Buckerfields at all.

Recycling is a booming business with rapidly increasing prices of marketable commod-

ities. Could that be why the Board of MMBC is all big business and outside the jurisdiction of the Auditor General? We don’t have to change a thing to see recycling take off in BC, in the hands of our elected municipal officials.

We need to send the MMBC regime to the recycle bin.

Big Bob and his gentle surprise

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

Big Bob had been a hunter and angler all his life. He also had a small farm where he ran a few Hereford cows, and some prize-winning Yorkshire hogs.

Between curling, hockey and fishin,’ he still had time to enjoy his hunting though, and got out after the whitetail deer which he had in the back forty. Bob was also a chef in his younger years, cooking for nine years at Banff Springs Hotel, then fishing lodges, before he bought the farm in his retirement.

He planned to publish a wild game and fish cookbook but just didn’t have time at present, with calving coming on and getting hogs to market. Of all the fish recipes he enjoyed serving up when his fishing buddies came over for supper, his favourite was Panfish cakes.

Bob’s recipe: Enough Yukon or red spuds for 2 cups. Mash potatoes, adding butter and crushed garlic. Mix in chopped green onion, tarragon, and egg.

Season with salt/pepper.

Trout, or salmon: 1 lb fried or baked in baking dish. Bake at 325ºF until done or when flesh pulls from backbone.

Remove remaining bones. Gently fold flaked trout pieces into potato mixture.

Form into patties 1 inch thick. Fry patties till golden brown in an oil/butter blend. Serve with asparagus or fresh spring vegetables. Top of with a glass of chilled pale ale or chilled white wine like Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.

Now Big Bob had a ol’ Chev truck that was giving him a bit of trouble, so he decided to drop it off at the mechanic’s shop for some repairs. They couldn’t do it while he waited, so he said he didn’t live far away and he’d just walk home. He had forgotten a list of items

he needed around the farm, but decided to drop in to the local hardware store anyway.

Big Bob bought a bucket, and gallon of paint. He then ambled over to the feed store, where he bought a couple of chickens and a goose. However, struggling outside the store, he now had a problem: how to carry all his purchases home?

While he was scratching his head, he was approached by a little old lady, who told Bob she was lost.

She asked, “Can you tell me how to get to 1603 Mockingbird Lane?” Big Bob replied, “Well, as a matter of fact, my farm is very close to that house. I would walk you there, but I can’t carry this lot.” The old lady suggested, “Why don’t you put the can of paint in the bucket. Carry the bucket in one hand, put a chicken under each arm and carry the goose in your other hand?”

Big Bob and the lady walked on until they came to a side alley. Bob said, “Let’s take a shortcut and go down this alley. We’ll be there in no time.”

Halfway down the lane, the elderly lady said to Big Bob, “How do I know that when we get in the alley you won’t hold me up against the wall and have your way with me?” Bob got red in the face, said, “Ma’am, I’m carrying a bucket, a gallon of paint, two chickens and a goose. How in the world could I possibly hold you up against the wall and do that?”

The old lady replied, “Set the goose down, cover him with the bucket, put the paint on top of the bucket, and I’ll hold the chickens.”

Shuswap Lake

shuswapoutdoors

Navigational Aids: Notice to Vessel Operators

The Canadian Coast Guard wishes to inform users of Shuswap Lake of the following information:

by Hank Shelley Here and there in the Shuswap

With spring finally arriving, it’s also time to take the family on a drive out Salmon River way to see all the newborn calves in fields with their moms close by. There’s also a small number of baby lambs.

On the wild side, deer will be having their fawns starting about now as well.

Deer can be seen along hillsides in the Falkland area.

Fishing: With local lakes beginning to shed ice, many anglers will be trying those flies they tied during winter, and checkin’ the local sport shop there’s aways new lures and tackle on the market. One lure that caught my eye last spring was the “Lucky Bug.” Initially invented by a chap in Chase, the story goes that he didn’t have the expertise to do the marketing and went broke. A large tackle company took off with the product and it can now be seen in most Canadian Tire stores. It’s a good lure of choice for most small lakes.

Angler alert: Be sure to look around and compare prices when making a purchase, whether tackle lures or something for your boat. I purchased an air horn at a local sport retailer recently for $12.99. I later saw the same horn on the sport rack at a giant retailer (also in the area) for $23.89! So shop and compare.

In the meantime, get out on the water and enjoy some great spring angling!

The lighted beacon on Copper Island: List of Lights # 50.5 is temporarily unlit until approximately May 15th, 2014.

In 1958, 21-year-old Rose Pamphyle (Deborah Francois) lives with her grumpy father who runs a local store and expects her to marry the local mechanic’s son. But Rose dreams of leaving her little village in the French countryside for the big city, and teaches herself to type when she sees an advertisement for a secretary for the Lisieux insurance agent, Louis Echard (Romain Duris).

Rose’s interview does not go well but Louis, being a former sportsman, recognizes Rose’s remarkable typing talent and proposes that he train her for speed-typing competitions in exchange for the job. He takes her in, she meets his friends Marie and Bob Taylor (Berenice Bejo and Shaun Benson), and learns piano to help her technique. Despite being a clumsy secretary, Rose’s popularity rises with each competition she wins and Louis is soon struggling with helping her dream come true as he realizes he may be falling for his young protégé.

Populaire shows on Saturday, April 12 at 5:00 p.m. at the Salmar Classic Theatre.

CCMA roots artist of the year returns to Canada for dates in British Columbia including Salmon Arm as part of Corb Lund’s “Spring Thaw” 2014 Tour. Corb and his band, the Hurtin’ Albertans will be at the Salmar Theatre in Salmon Arm on May 11th.

“Cabin Fever,” Corb’s most recent release on New West Records was his highest Canadian Billboard debut, hitting #1 in its first week of release. The album, featuring “Bible on the Dash” and “Getting Down the Mountain” has been the most successful release to date both commercially and critically.

Not only will Corb and the Hurtin’ Albertans (guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Grant Siemens, upright bassist Ken Ciesla, and drummer Brady Valgardson) sing and play tunes from the new album, they’ll also reach into the extensive Corb Lund catalogue and play many of his older tunes and hits as well.

Just like Corb’s subjects run the gamut, so do the sonics on the long-player, ranging from rockabilly to Western Swing, cowboy balladry to country rock. And of course, the occasional yodel. It’s this sort of versatility that brings out a raft of audiences to his shows; from field and urban sidewalk alike.

Opening the show is the roots and alternative band Harlan Pepper, rising in popularity and critical acclaim. Tickets for the Salmar Theatre show on May 11th at 7:30 pm are available from the Salmar Theatre during regular theatre hours.

SPORTS & LEISURE Horseshoe Club gears up

832-8520 or Faith Juell at 250-8329873. Horseshoes are one of the more reasonable sports to participate in, with our yearly membership including insurance being only $35.

Major cleanups and organizational meeting will be held Tuesday, April 29 and onward to prepare for our annual spring tournament. Newcomers are welcome to use club ‘shoes’ to practice, until you’re able to secure your own favourite shoes.

Some members are already looking forward to the BC Senior Games (55+) in Langley and Cloverdale in September.

Registration will be through our Zone 8 coordinators in Kamloops.

Happy Easter to all! Many will be busy until after Easter with winter activities and family events and we may not see you all until the end of April. Until then, think of our good pitching times coming up!

By Faith Juell Members of the Salmon Arm Horseshoe Club are anxious to start the new season of pitching. With snow gone and winter activities such as curling, bowling, pool and cards winding down for the season, it’s time to start our horseshoe activities.

The first sanctioned tournament of the season is scheduled for May 3 in Penticton, with the Salmon Arm tournament scheduled for May 10. Members old and new are eager to start practicing.

Regular clean-ups and afternoon practice will start April 15th, 1:30 p.m. and will go on each Tuesday and Thursday, weather-permitting, until we change to evening practice in the warmer weather.

New members and visitors are welcome at any time, at our pits next to the curling rink in uptown Salmon Arm. For further information contact Doug Winslow at 250-

Pink Pistons seek new members

The Pink Piston Paddlers are preparing for their 8th season of dragon boating on Shuswap Lake. The breast cancer survivor team paddles under the auspices of SARP, the local Rowing and Paddling Association.

Picking colours

You can choose any colours you want for your room, but you will have better results if you follow a few guidelines. I promise.

Continue to refine your identification of your wall colour and then pick other colours that work, based on these concepts.

Colours are, in my opinion, best described in one of three ways: light or dark, warm or cool, and clear or muted. For quite awhile I have referred to the clear or muted colours as clean or dirty, but every time I do I have to explain so I decided it would be simpler to just use the right words

to begin with.

Saying a colour is light or dark is useful only when describing it in relationship to another colour. For example, robin’s egg blue is light compared to navy, and dark compared to pastel blue. A tint is created by adding white to a colour, a shade is created by adding black.

Look at your colour wheel: Warm colours are from true red through orange and yellow to yellow-green.

Cool colours are from true red through purple and blue to blue-green.

True green is a toss-up; some say it is warm, some say it is cool.

D ISTR ICT OF S ICA MOUS The District of Sicamous is currently seeking unwanted boats to promote a nautical theme around town.

If you have an old boat that would be suitable for this purpose, please contact the Public Works Department at 250-836-4105 so that an inspection can be arranged.

DesignDilemmas

by Linda Erlam

Don’t mix warm and cool colours in a big way in a colour scheme.

If you must mix them, pick one as the main colour and use little bits of the other as accessories only.

If your main colour is warm, choose warm metals (gold, bronze, copper), if it is cool, choose nickel, pewter or silver.

Clear colours are on the outside ring of the colour wheel. Muted colours are clear colours with the complimentary colour added. For example, to mute red add a touch of green – the two are opposite each other on the colour wheel.

If you use colours from nature you will have a fairly muted colour scheme. If you choose clear colours from the colour wheel you will have a clear colour scheme. Varying light and dark is OK. Don’t mix muted and clear colours. For

example, olive green does not sit well with clear orange but can look great with terra cotta.

Muted colours work with off-white trim.

Clear colours need white trim.

Go to my website, read up on the 60-3010 rule and use it for assigning colours to the surfaces in your room.

So: no mixing undertones, no mixing warm and cool, no mixing clear and muted. Use the wall colour as your main colour and make everything else work with that colour.

News from Falkland

by Ozzie Leaf We are losing our postmistress, Sabine Grigat, effective April 16th. Sabine has been our postmistress for the past 1 1/2 years, and has served us with friendly, courteous service. Sabine is heading to Halifax to be closer to her daughter.

We wish her well in her new adventures.

Just a reminder that effective now, the price of postage stamps has gone up from 63 cents to 85 cents if purchased in bulk. Single stamps now cost $l for letters 0-30 g.

A local business here in Falkland, Sterling Springs Chicken, was selected from other competitors across Canada, as the one to supply the principal portion for the Black Box Culinary Championship being held in Kelowna. The ingredients for the Black Box competition were selected from across Canada, and Lisa and Han’s operation won out. They operate one of the most up-to-date government operations in Canada. Congratulations to Lisa and Hans.

With the CNR upgrading the rail lines here, there are approximately 50,000 old used rail ties being stock-piled on the siding here. They are destined to have the creosote extracted from them, and then they will be burned.

The extra highway caution lights that have been installed at the crosswalk downtown seem to be working to slow traffic down as they are more visible.

The curling season has wound up at the Don Lavery Rink, taking the honours in the mixed league. The seniors wound up their season with a potluck get together, and a draw to the button A in a ham competition, which our dedicated ice man Del Harder won. Looking over the season, everyone agreed it was a fun time going

out of town for spiels and entertaining others at our rink. We look forward to next season.

Several of our curlers attended the Brier in Kamloops. One day at the Brier, the 50/50 prize totalled more than $5,000. While that added a bit of excitement, unfortunately our B.C. team in the competition didn’t advance.

Plans are going ahead to make our 96th year even a bigger and better show. An added attraction will be an Expo-Trade show to be held at the skating rink. Also added will be mini-pony chuck wagon races and plans to accommodate more for the Cowboy Church Service. Northcott Rodeo will once again supply the stock and Les McIntyre will do the announcing. There will be a horse training presentation on Saturday morning at 11 a.m. by Doug Mills.

What is being termed as on the of the best coffee houses yet was held at our community hall on Saturday, March 22nd, as performers from Merritt, Armstrong, Vernon, Salmon Arm, Silver Creek and Revelstoke entertained a good crowd in attendance. A note of appreciation is due to Brian Bell, Brad Ulmer and all of the other workers in the background who put the show together. The next coffee house on Saturday, April 26th, will be held in conjunction with the annual Bean Feed (celebrating our hall’s 78th birthday) which should make for an enjoyable evening for old and young alike.

Sorry to report the passing of Anna May Churchill, a long-time resident of Falkland, on Tuesday, March 25th. Anna May moved to Vernon a few years ago, but kept close ties with family and friends in Falkland. She will be missed by many.

Meditations Read: Psalm 104:1-24 1 Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, thou art very great;..

10 He sendeth the springs into the valleys, which run among the hills. 13 He watereth the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works. 14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;.. 16 The trees of the Lord are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted; 17 Where the birds make their nests:.. 19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.

This Psalm gives me a sense of comfort and courage. We have a heavenly Father who created this world we live in and He is very aware of everything that’s going on in it.

The days are getting longer, the summer birds are coming back singing their songs, and presently the snow is melting in full force. With that moisture and some nice warm sunshine, our lawns will quickly turn from brown to green, and the trees will soon be hanging full of fresh new leaves!

Why comment on these events in nature? It’s always been this way. This is nature.

The wonderful truth is that this is more than "just nature". God is the designer and creator of the world we live in. He set it all in motion and He keeps it all going year after year!

Psalm 104:24 O Lord, how manifold (diversified, abundant) are thy works! In Wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.

What an odd, imaginary world Wendy Fredette lives in!

Apparently, nothing in Nature ever changes - or has ever changed in her world; plants and animals exist eternally, from their ancient beginnings, in the same ‘frozen’, static state as they are at present. (“Once a fish, always a fish,” April 4, 2014).

Presumably, since plant and animal ecology and the physical processes of the planet are two sides of the same coin, it’s also a world where geologic forces, have never tweaked the landscape; where splitting of the single supercontinent ‘Pangaea’ into the familiar continents some 290 million years ago never happened; nor did these continents ‘drift’, ever since, into their current (only temporary, of course) positions. No volcanic activity, seismic upheavals, plate tectonics, sea floor spreading, up-thrusting mountains, chemical evolution of the atmosphere to its present oxygen-rich state (lucky for us animals!) happened either. As for the comings and goings of glaciers, ice ages, ocean currents like the Gulfstream, and sea-level changes ? No – all unlikely as well! And what of

weathering, silt-carrying rivers, erosion, climate-change, even rainfall itself ? Very doubtful, in a fantasy world of utter, for-

ever-unchanging sameness!

And, it’s a world where no plants and animals have ever become extinct, either – leaving only fossils behind – including, I might add, innumerable, no-longer-successfully-adapted fossil fish.

These dynamic, natural geophysical events have challenged the living world of plants and animals with always-changing, inescapable ‘lifestyle’ problems for billions of years – and they meet such challenges – or haven’t met them – through the evolutionary process of natural selection acting selectively upon the random variations occurring in all life’s genetic material.

Adaptation is the successful

outcome of this reciprocal ‘dance’ of life and its changing surroundings. Trilobites, dinosaurs, bear-sized beavers, marsupial (pouched) lions, and 2-meter tall flightless Moas were once adapted to the Earth’s past conditions; now, well-documented fossil-remains beautifully tell their completed evolutionary stories.

Surely, anti-evolutionists have to ask themselves why these, and over 90 % of all living organisms that have ever lived on Earth, are not here, now? Hip-bones and shoulder-girdles in present-day limbless snakes and whales, and even our own appendix, are among many vestigial structures that also reveal evolution in action. And, incidentally, gill-slits in our embryonic development attest to shared structures with fish!

Alas! A changeless world can only be a make-believe, unnatural world – perhaps a comfortable, even comforting one – but a static world, nonetheless, without any evidence for it in reality, as scientific studies repeatedly confirm for us.

Tom Crowley, Tappen

Sound and fury signifying...?

Once again, I am bemused (not amused) by the latest debate about evolution vs. creation. Please, let’s be reasonable rather than emotional. The “faith vs. facts” rhetoric is, in my opinion, not at all constructive.

On the one hand, to state that “not one shred of evidence has ever been found to conclude the evolutionary theory as fact” is both questionable and highly inflammatory and bound to get an equally biased response. Also, I fail to see any positive usefulness in suggesting that naturalists are promoting a pagan religion.

On the other hand, the statement that “there is ample proof and veracity out there for those who wish to know about the evolutionary beginnings of our planet” also turns a blind eye to the wide variety of opinions held by many scientists in regard to the origins of planet earth, life, etc.

The point I wish to make is that the rhetoric used in these opposing positions is not only

biased and dogmatic, it is also unhelpful and even destructive.

I have a question in regard to this debate. Why does it cause so much “sound and fury”?

From my understanding, many who believe in “natural evolution” also believe human life evolved from lower life forms

and so we are simply creatures with more developed brains.

The suggestion seems to be that those who choose a “faithbased” view of life, are not quite as advanced as the others.

Then why bother attacking them? They are doomed to extinction by “natural selection” anyway. Perhaps a more worthy goal in life would be to

direct our energies to making life more bearable for our fellow human beings who are now suffering terribly due to natural and man-made causes. There are many organizations that would benefit from your financial support. (But wait! Many of those organizations are “faith-based” (Christian) organizations ... ) I think I understand why the “faith-based” people are concerned about this debate. You see, they believe in a creator being who is also the final judge of human beings. If they happen to be correct, they may have cause to try to win others over to their perspective, out of compassion.

Come to think of it, if those who believe that there is life beyond this present “mortal coil” are wrong, they haven’t lost a whole lot. On the other hand, if those who believe that death is “the end” are wrong... well, I guess I’ll take my chances on the “faith” side.

Obituaries

Obituaries

Thelma Mary Schmok The family of Thelma Mary Schmok is sad to report her passing on April 1, 2014. She was born in Maidstone, Saskatchewan in 1918 to Sam and Sylvia Dooley.

Later the family moved to Kelowna where she met and married Carl Schmok in 1940.

The new family first lived in Regina, but after their daughter was born they moved to Kelowna. The family grew with the addition of five boys.

Most of the family was raised in Kelowna, with the younger ones finishing their education in Chetwynd. Carl accepted a call for a lay-minister with the Lutheran congregation there. Carl and Thelma retired to the Shuswap in 1981. They travelled extensively and wintered in California for a few years.

Thelma will be remembered for her detailed needlework and quilting. She was an avid bridge player right to the end. Known for her cooking and baking, from bread to pies; delicious aromas always filled her kitchen.

She was predeceased by her son Richard in 1973, and her husband of 55 years, Carl, in 1995.

Thelma is survived by her daughter Lori Manly; sons Michael and Donald (Debbie), all of Salmon Arm, and sons Gordon of Whitehorse, and Clifford (Annette) of Chetwynd. She doted on eight grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren. Thelma spent the last 12 years living happily in Piccadilly Terrace.

A celebration of Life Service for Thelma was held on Monday, April 7, 2014 at 11:00 am from Bowers Funeral Chapel. A reception followed the service.

Online condolences may be sent through Thelma’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com
