Optics count in eyewear store Sunshine Coast Eyewear offers top quality brands and prescription lenses After gaining extensive knowledge and training in the eyewear industry at clinics and boutiques and earning an industry accreditation, Sunshine Coast Eyewear owner Cindy Gaudin decided to open her own business in July of 2016. With an emphasis on ensuring customers experience a no-pressure, relaxing environment when visiting the store at 4573A Marine Avenue, Gaudin provides advice on the best fitting frame for each customer’s prescription and physiology. She also educates them with information about coating options and lens designs that fit their lifestyles. “Ultimately, it’s their choice what to purchase and wear, but I’m there to guide them,” explains Gaudin, “I’m licensed and have to complete specific hours of continuing education to keep my licence up to date.” Customers can have eyewear prescriptions filled similar to how they take medical prescriptions to a pharmacy. “We are an eyewear dispensary,” says Gaudin. Sunshine Coast Eyewear uses one of the world’s best labs, according to Gaudin. “Customers may have heard of Essilor, Varilux or Crizal Lenses,” says Gaudin. “Essilor invented progressive lenses and manufacture the most-used progressive lens in the world; they just introduced new technology that makes the most compromised area of focus, that 40 to 70 centimetres midrange area, the best you’ve ever had.” Gaudin says there is no longer a need to “find the sweet spot” in that mid-range area. “I’ve been told distortion is eliminated and now you can read in bed with your progressives,” she adds. To ensure customer satisfaction, all prescription-lens buyers receive a followup call one to four weeks after making a purchase. “We phone and make sure the fit and lens PLAN STUDYschool district City and national covet inter students education PAGE 9

or can have them polarized for $50; this promotion also ends December 31, says Gaudin. To give back to the community that supports her business, Gaudin volunteers at Willingdon Creek Village, Evergreen Care Unit and Kiwanis three to four times a year. “I go in and adjust, repair and clean the residents’ glasses; it’s a lot of fun,” she says. “There are some really funny and sweet characters I get to help out, and the staff is really good to me, too.” Sunshine Coast Eyewear is open 10 am-5 pm Monday to Saturday.

“We have children’s frames, too, even for babies, and sunglasses as well,” says Gaudin. “We can also order in if customers have a specific request.” Adjustments, most repairs, cleaning, nose pieces and screw tightening for all frames purchased are free for the lifetime of the frame. In addition to products and services, ongoing promotions help reduce costs for customers. Currently, children 15 and younger receive a second pair of lenses free within 15 months of the purchase, whether their prescription changes or they lose or break them, no questions asked. Seniors 60 and over receive a discount and a buy-one-get-one-50-per-cent-off special is in place until December 31. Also, customers who buy specific lenses with Transitions and Crizal coatings receive prescription sunglass lenses for free,

Fall bazaar an annual tradition
For more than 20 years, local craft enthusiasts and those just looking for interesting gift ideas have gathered for the annual Powell River Health-Care Au x i l ia r y Fa l l Ba zaa r. This year, the tradition of finding high-quality craft items at affordable prices continues at Powell River Recreation Complex’s upper level on Saturday, October 21. “This annual event keeps with the tradition expected by the public, because they know they can get quality items for less cost,” says health-care auxiliary secretary Lorraine Stokes. Proceeds from the longrunning event go toward lo c a l he a lt h- c a r e s erv ices, i nc lud i ng t hose in Powell River General Hospital, Evergreen Care Unit, Willingdon Creek Village and Powell River Therapeutic R id i ng A ssociat ion. Prog ra ms include a Red Cross Help
Office, free television for patients, candy stripers and more. “Because the items at the bazaar are of a better quality than most, they fetch a better price,” says Stokes. “Many people look forward to the bazaar because there are good bargains on lightly used je w el ler y, hou s e w a r e s, Ch r ist ma s decorat ions and a large display of handcrafted goods. These things are wonderful for holiday presents.” This year’s event also features a bake sale, fish pond for children, a tea room and much more. “The tea room is a lovely way for shoppers to take a break and have a cup of tea or coffee, along with sandwiches or sweets,” says Stokes. “We will also have a large plant table with bedding plants, bulbs and garden items, plus a raffle. Again, there will be a bake sale table offering locally made goods. Plus, there will be a raffle of handcrafted items made by our handcrafters.” Powell River Health-Care Auxiliary relies on support and donations from the public.

LET’S TALK TRASH clothing and textile accessories? Rather than being woven, sheets of materials are grown and then moulded by placement onto mannequins and other shapes. The antimicrobial, moisture-absorbing and compostable textiles could eventually replace their synthetic alternatives. A mushroom leather and suede may also be slated to take the fashion industry by surprise. Other mushrooms such as turkey tail and some stropharia are able to pull apart and degrade very complex carbon-based compounds that could allow for mycroremediation of soil and water. This could prove to be an interesting exploration locally as we move toward the cleanup of the old incinerator site off of Marine Avenue near Willingdon Beach, which is still home to more than 35,000 cubic metres of toxic fly ash.

Mushrooms from under the forest floor and tree bark are starting to peek their heads out and whisper, “Pick me, pick me.” It is that time of the year. Tasty chanterelles, roasted pines and hardy lobsters are among many mushrooms locals share their plates with, but it turns out that mushrooms are more than just delicious. Nowadays, mushrooms are finding uses as building materials, packaging, textiles and remediation for contaminated soil. Can mushrooms replace particle board and home insulation? Mycelium, the root system of mushrooms, can be fashioned into almost any shape. Dried mycelia can be placed in a mould and have water added to reactivate the mycelia, followed by a time of heating to dry and stop growth. The whole process takes only a few days, resulting in a lightweight, strong, mould-resistant, waterresistant and fire-resistant material that can be used as structural building bricks, insulation and as an alternative to polystyrene packaging, to name a few. While it may not be used for skyscrapers anytime soon, a 40-foot, mushroombrick structure has already been installed at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Ecovative Design won an award for its use of mycelia as packaging and also built a tiny home using panels of mycelial insulation. You may have heard that wild mushrooms have been used to dye fibres such as wool and silk, but did you know designers are now using mycelium as a fibre to create

Having feelings about something and feeling like no one understands them has to be one of the most challenging things to deal with. When no one understands or even tries to understand, we can be left feeling small, frustrated or insignificant. But isn’t it the most magical thing when someone does understand? In my sessions, it usually looks like a resounding and tearful “yes” when someone finally feels fully heard and seen. It can also have the effect of completely diffusing the big feelings enough that they can move on from it. This reminds me of a while back when I became wrapped up in a disagreement around the treatment of animals. I was

A: Going to court is not necessary for most couples who get divorced. If you agree with your ex-spouse about how to deal with parenting, support, property and debt issues, you can apply for an “uncontested divorce.” This requires filing the proper paperwork with the court and making reasonable arrangements for child-support payments. If you do not agree with your ex-spouse on parenting, support, property, or debt issues, a lawyer or a family law mediator may be able to assist in reaching an agreement. If you have questions about getting a divorce, please contact our office.

these are purebred raccoon killers.” We were howling with laughter at the idea of raccoon-killing super cats. It was too ridiculous to comprehend, which was the winning piece for me. That sort of humour will not always be the ticket in these sorts of scenarios that are full of stuck feelings, but this time it was bang on. Right in the middle of that fit of ridiculous belly laughter, I realized that not only did my partner see me, but he completely understood, enough that he knew what to say and how to say it. I was almost immediately diffused and felt so much lighter. With what seemed to be, very little effort, I was able to have the experience of feeling truly met and fully validated.

After a certain point, I realized the discussion was not going anywhere and I had to leave it be. Even though I was still having all these feelings and not feeling heard, I stepped back. This was not the venue for having these needs met; it was not going to happen. When my partner came home from work later that day, we were catching up on our days and I was sharing my experience (as well as my frustration). He turned to me with a straight face and told me he was going to breed super cats and put up a descriptive ad to sell them. He continued on with his serious face and salesman tone of voice and said, “Super cats with laser-eye ability, pretty sure the dad was half cougar;

DANGEROUS CROSSING: This young raccoon was struck by a vehicle while attempting to cross Alberni Street with a sibling in late September. The sibling remained beside its family member until the injured raccoon was removed from the scene and transported to Powell River Orphaned Wildlife Society (PROWLS). The injured sibling was flown to Wild Animal Rehabilitation Centre in Victoria for medical assessment and, hopefully, the rehabilitation it requires. While widely regarded as scavenging, urban pests, there is much to admire about these masked little bandits. For example, based on widespread scientific agreement, raccoons have a vocabulary of up to 50 different sounds ranging from purrs and whistles to screams and chirps, and even whinnies.

1105 Obituaries
Torger Marshall Johnson September 13, 1927 September 30, 2017
It is with great sadness we say goodbye to our dad, grandfather, greatgrandfather, uncle, friend and hero. Of Norwegian descent, Torger was born and raised in Saskatchewan. He worked on the family farm, repaired railroad tracks for Canadian National Railway in the lean times and graduated from University of Saskatchewan with a degree in agriculture. He drove forklift in the finishing room for the Powell River Company, joined the fire department as a volunteer in 1948 and became captain, deputy and, finally, chief from 1973 until his retirement in January 1983. Torger and Jean married in 1950 and became snowbirds after retirement. Building his own motorhome, visiting family and friends throughout Canada, Norway and the United States, Torger’s contagious wit was always in tow. Missing the prairie, farm life and close family friends, it was not a surprise to hear Torger had gone to help with harvest, build a parade float, or give (and receive) comfort on a loved one’s passing. Honoured with a Pilgrim Degree for his work and dedication to the Moose Fraternity, Torger held multiple positions in both the Moose Lodge and Legion of the Moose and travelled throughout BC as an ambassador. As a member of the Rotary Club, he helped build many floats for the Sea Fair Parade; Popeye and crew remain for all to enjoy. Torger was on the board of directors for Sunset Homes Society (Olive Devaud Residence), involved in the early years of soapbox derby, blood donor clinic, minor hockey, bicycle safety, search and rescue and was an active member of the United Church, just to name a few. Torger was always willing to lend a hand and orchestrated many work parties for anyone in need. He was an avid hockey fan, never missing a game unless illness or duty called. Go Kings Go! Torger was predeceased by his father Tom, mother Maria, wife Jean, sister Margith Fishleigh, brother Ken Johnson, brothers-in– law Johnnie Fishleigh, Ken Harris and Fred Gibson, and sister-inlaw Albertine Gibson. He is lovingly remembered by his daughter Cathy (Bob) McLean, grandson Rick (Mary-Jane) McLean, great-grandchildren Victoria (Keith), Brett (Ashly) and Haaken, grandson Travis (Jenni) McLean from Powell River and great-grandson Aidan (Bailey) from Burns Lake, BC; daughter Lois (Marcel) Brulotte, granddaughter Catherine (Cory) McRae Scanlon, great-grandsons Braeden, Tanner and Marshall; grandson Jordan Brulotte from Nelson and granddaughter Thea (Dan) Brulotte from Victoria; son Stuart (Theresa Forbes) Johnson and grandson Matthew Johnson, of Powell River; granddaughters Lisa Hart from Vancouver and Tara Hart and Kristina Johnson from Victoria; sisters-in-law AnnieMarie Harris from Powell River and Lottie Johnson from Winnipeg; and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends worldwide, too numerous to mention. Many thanks to Dr. DuToit and staff, the wonderful nurses, care aides and activity staff at Willingdon Creek Village for their compassionate care and to his friends who visited. Our thanks to Pat and Joanne of Stubberfield Funeral Home and City of Powell River and Powell River Fire Rescue for the touching writeup and flying flags at half mast; it was a wonderful tribute. A special thank you to Ed Spreeuw for accompanying Dad to his last two and a half seasons of “the game.” It was very much appreciated. A celebration of Torger's life will be held in late March 2018 on a day to be determined. Please join us then and bring your stories and memories to share. In lieu of flowers, donations to BC Professional Fire Fighters Burn Fund, Powell River Firefighters Charitable Society, Willingdon Creek Village Activities or Powell River Kings would be greatly appreciated.

1100 In Memoriam
Rosemarie Primrose January 5, 1927 - October 14, 2017
Rosemarie passed away quietly at the age of 90 in Powell River General Hospital. She was born in Edmonton to Bill and Norah Coghill and had four siblings. She is survived by her son Gary. Rosemarie had a colourful and courageous life. She worked as a nurse in Kenya from 1948 to 1952 but left just ahead of the Mau Mau insurgence. Upon her return to Canada, she worked in Lethbridge, where she met her dear second husband, the writer Tom Primrose. They purchased a hobby farm southwest of Calgary and had 10 wonderful years there before Tom passed away suddenly. Heartbroken, Rosemarie moved to Savary Island in 1984, set up a gift shop and candy store and was the first responder on the island for many years. Rosemarie has been a popular resident at Kiwanis Manor since 2010. She was always aware and appreciative of the wonderful care she received there. The family would like to thank ICU staff at the hospital and Dr. Van Zyl and Dr. Marentette for their support and guidance in her last days. A service for Rosemarie will take place at 11 am on Saturday, October 28, at Savary Island Church, which she helped to found.
