Lawyer Climbs Mountain For Alzheimer Society Out-of-office messages are usually plain fare, but this message caught the attention of BarTalk: "As I am climbing Mt. Aconcagua in Argentina for the Alzheimer Society of B.C., I will be out of the office unt il January 17, 2005 ...... The message was from Dale Rondeau, of Thomas Rondeau in Vancouver, who did indeed scale a mountain in South America during his winter holiday. This was actually Dale's second charitable climb; in 2001 he climbed Mount Kilimanjaro as part of the Alzheimer Society's annual "Ascent for Alzheimer's." Between the two treks, Dale, with the help of friends and clients, has raised more than $25,000 for the Alzheimer Society. Bravo Dale!
