BATCHO, CHRISTINA (nee Gregory)
NORTH - Cameron [Cam] Floyd August 19, 1962 - June 21, 2010. Cameron will be missed tremendously by his parents Robert and Denise, brother Marc, sister Karen [Kieran] Magee, his precious nieces Meghan, Danielle, Olivia and Kathleen, his beloved long time companion, ‘Lucie (his dog,) aunts, uncles and cousins in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, BC, California, and Texas; and by his many, many friends and colleagues around the world. In his youth, Cameron was active in sports, especially hockey, and was blessed with many creative talents, but it was cinematography that was in his blood. So, after graduating Steveston High, in Richmond B.C, Cameron attended the Fine Arts program - Film Studies, at Simon Fraser University. His first cinematic accomplishment was filming the restoration of historic Engine 374 [now in the Roundhouse, downtown] in time for Expo’86. An IATSE 669 member in good standing for over 20 years, Cameron was one of the ‘old men’ of the local film industry, well known and highly respected on both sides of the border not only for his talents, knowledge, and skill as 1st Assistant Cameraman [focus puller] but also for being an enthusiastic, supportive, and decent ’good guy’ to work with, and work for - by crews, actors, and directors a like. Cameron was always grateful for being in demand and worked around the world many times with Imax - a highlight being The Rolling Stones’ ’Steel Wheels’ tour in Europe when the Berlin Wall came down. Closer to home, he left his mark on films such as We’re No Angels, Once Upon a Spider, Cat Woman, The Butterfly Effect, Miracle, Snow Dogs, Neverwas. Cameron’s pastime passions, as time allowed, included working on and around his house, wood working especially making things for others, Coronation Street, and movie memorabilia. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Saturday July 10th at 11am at St Joseph the Worker 4451 Williams Rd. Richmond, BC. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to Covenant House 575 Drake St. Vanc., BC. V6B 4K8

To whomever took the Canadian flag displayed at 839 East 12 Street, North Vancouver for Canada Day. The flag was used at the burial service of my father and has great sentimental value. I’m sure it was taken on the spur of the moment as a prank. Please return it. No questions asked.

Handful
November 10, 2001 – July 5th, 2009 HANSEN - Chris. G. March 22, 1968-June 26, 2010 It is with the greatest sadness that we are saying goodbye to our beloved husband, Dad, son and friend.

He expressed his connection to nature through skiing, snowshoeing, mountain biking, surfing, windsurfing, fishing and rock climbing. His love of the outdoors was not only his passion, but it was often also the subject of his work as a camera man in the film industry. His family and many friends will miss his thoughtfulness and tenderness, his sense of humour, and his exuberant joy of life, music and friends. He was a devoted father to Taje and husband to Shelley. He will be remembered for his glow and radiant energy. For information regarding Chris’ Celebration of Life please visit: www.livelargechris.com.

May the Sunshine of Comfort Dispel the Clouds of despair
We didn’t write this a year ago, couldn’t write this Because a year ago Our hearts were too broken to be able to find the words It seemed as if our spirits were ripped apart too But it has felt so unfair every day since you left Not to tell you how much we were going to miss you Still miss you each and every day We regret so deeply that we were not there When your death was near Not there to comfort you as we surely would have Not there to love you and hold you in our arms as you let go of this world We can still feel you sitting on our feet leaning into us Licking our bare legs in the summertime Wagging your tail upon the sight of us And just being the best dog friend anyone could ever have You are still missed in every walk we take in the woods Still missed as we pet another dog and wish most reverently That you were still here sharing our days and nights together with us We hope you have found some kind of dog heaven somewhere Where you are as loved as you were here. – Are here – with us always. Thank you to our friends and neighbours who loved our Handful so well.
Love, Joy and David Fai
