Peter Warren 1937 – 2021 Against his wishes, Warren Peter passed away May 27, 2021. Warren was born July 27, 1937 to Philip (Flip) and Nellie Peter of Estevan Sask. Warren married his junior high sweetheart, Donnamae Parkinson, and fathered 4 daughters yet still left this world with a full head of hair. He loved his girls but also embraced his sons-in-law. Warren and his best friend and brother, Robert, took over the family business after his father retired and “the Peter Boys” as they were referred to well into their 60s ran the Estevan Tire Centre. Warren enjoyed fishing, boating, hunting, gardening, golfing, BBQing and power napping. Taking risks investing in snowmobile racing, exotic cattle and oil thrilled him. Nothing frustrated him more than when he and Donna’s ailing health prevented them from wintering in Lake Havasu, Arizona where they enjoyed golfing and trips to Laughlin. In 2016, Warren and Donna relocated to Nanaimo, British Columbia, to be micromanaged by their daughters. Friends and family were everything to him. Warren had a great love of entertaining, storytelling and visiting. One of his last audible phrases was “Isn’t this a hell of a deal, Donna?” Warren will be missed for his witty sense of humor, love and loyalty to his family and his ability to make anything a competition. Warren was predeceased by his parents, his brother David Peter, his brothers-in-law George Parkinson, Floyd Parkinson, Larry Demchuk, sister-in-law Lorraine Parkinson and sadly his daughter Joan Marcotte. Warren is survived by the love of his life, wife Donna of 60 years, daughters Barb Frank (Randy) Mari Jayne Meyer (Blair), Beverly Lundine (Mike), son-in-law Lance Marcotte (Karen), grandchildren Justin (Mai), Jodie, Andrew (Nicole), Jennifer (Scott), Nicolas (Anika), Jacob (Kiya), Chase (Kayla), Jacie (Nathan), Griffen (Mya) and Payton, great grandchildren: Tora, Charlotte, Tommy and Jack, his brothers Rob (Karen) Peter, Glen (Janet) Peter, sisters-in-law Shirley Peter, Betty Parkinson, Marlene Demchuk, Bette Bouchard, brother-in- law Alex Bouchard, numerous nieces, nephews and special friends. A private family service will be held in Nanaimo BC. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Palliative Care Unit, Regional General Hospital in Nanaimo where he received exceptional end of life care. Special thanks to Dr Kirsty McIlwaine, Dr Lindsay Eaggen and every staff member he encountered in that facility.

Cornerstone provides update on masks outdoors The South East Cornerstone Public School Division has provided an update on wearing masks when outdoors during recess at its schools. With the provincial release of the outdoor team sport competition guidelines allowing for athletes and coaches as well as spectators to be unmasked, the school division says it has been reviewing the current outdoor recess masking requirements. With the heat wave in the southeast last week, the direction became more timely. “We have been in consultation with our local medical health officers and have been advised that wearing a mask

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Clifford (Swede) Larson at Leduc Extendicare at the age of 95 years. Those that knew Clifford best will remember his great sense of humour, colorful jokes and stories. He was fortunate to have lived and worked in many locations here in Canada and overseas in Pakistan, Lybia, Greece and England.

ties where physical distancing is possible. Students will remain in their cohorts and in their designated spaces. “Please discuss with your child whether you wish for them to wear their mask while outdoors or not,” Little wrote. Physical education classes being held outdoors will adhere to the provincial guidelines. The public health order remains in effect for indoors and thus students, staff and all visitors will continue to wear masks while indoors until the health order changes and the division is notified by government.

while outdoors remains an important additional layer of protection, especially when children are not able to physically distance. While the current guidelines are that masks are not required if children can physically distance at recess, we also know that recess is a social time and that physically distancing does not loan itself to connections among children,” director of education Lynn Little said in a letter. Effective June 3, wearing masks while outside will continue to be encouraged; however, it will no longer be mandatory. If students are not wearing masks, the school division will encourage activi-

SaskPower crews came in to do repairs for that line. So the area did receive a minor outage for a brief period while they're doing repairs," said Estevan Fire Chief Dale Feser. The recent spell of hot weather brought the Estevan area into a high fire danger indexing range. However, with moisture coming early this week, Feser said the region was at the lower end of the high scale and potentially would go into moderate to low with more precipitation forecasted for the rest of the week. In the meantime, he reminded the public to exercise caution when burning anything and report controlled burns to prevent unnecessary dispatches for the fire department.
