    Built on the railway and

    hosting a large etha-nol plant, it should come

    as no surprise that thereare a number o danger-ous goods being trans-

    ported and handled in andaround Minnedosa, andlike many other towns and

    cities across the country,Minnedosa has begun tore-examine its emergency

    response plan.own of cials in-

    volved in the emergency

    response centre met onSeptember 26th or a brie

    review o the owns emer-gency measures plans.

    In correlation to the

    meeting, the local Huskyethanol plant approached

    the own about participat-ing in one o its regularlyscheduled mock-emer-

    gencies. Because o thechemicals housed at theplant, it is required by leg-

    islation to hold these typeso exercises on a regularbasis.

    On Friday, October4th, Husky led the exercise.In the scenario, a Husky

    employee was driving awork vehicle around the

    lot and suered a heart at-tack. Te driver lost control

    o the vehicle and made

    contact with an anhydrousammonia tank.

    In Manitoba we rununder the 911 system,

    which means when an in-

    cident occurs EMS, Fire,RCMP and public worksare the rst people noti-

    ed. Once they are on thescene and determine thatsupport is necessary, I am

    notied to open the emer-gency operations centre,explains Barrett Nelson,

    municipal emergency co-ordinator or the own o

    Minnedosa, R.M. o Oda-nah and the R.M. o Minto.

    Initial concerns to

    Huskys onsite emergencypersonnel were the engine

    re as well as the wound-ed driver. As the scenarioplayed out, because o the

    contact with the chemicaltank, the pressure insidebuilt up within the tank,

    which caused it to breach.Husky utilized dry ice

    to simulate the chemical

    spray and real-lie windpressure and speed, north-east at 20 km an hour, cre-

    ated the scenario o thechemical being carried

    through the valley.With this wind expo-

    sure, the chemicals were

    blowing into town and atthat point the town emer-

    gency services were con-tacted and the emergencyoperations centre was

    opened. Our rst step wasto gather the emergencyoperations personnel,

    says Nelson. From therewe begin to communicatewith the onsite person-

    nel, coordinating whateverthey may need.

    he American ugitivethat was ound livingin Minnedosa appeared

    in Oregon court this pastweek seeking approval oa plea bargain.

    Jean Keating, 54,known to Minnedosa resi-dents as Jean McPherson,

    appeared in Linn CountyCircuit Court on Septem-ber 30th, as reported by

    theAlbany Democrat Her-ald.

    Fleeing to Canada in

    1998, Keating settled inMinnedosa with her twochildren. She lived and

    worked in the communityor 16 years.

    While in Minnedo-

    sa, Keating was evadingcharges rom the state o

    Oregon or causing a a-

    tal accident on April 13th,1997. Keating was chargedin 1997 with frst-degreemanslaughter, driving

    under the inuence, twocounts o reckless driving,and three counts o reck-

    lessly endangering anoth-er person.

    Ater being discov-

    ered by local RCMP, Ke-ating was deported romCanada in April. She was

    returned to Linn Countywhere her bail was set at$5 million.

    On September 30th,Keatings attorney For-rest Reid negotiated a plea

    deal with prosecutor, RyanLucke. Keating plead nocontest to second-degree

    manslaughter and drivingunder the inuence.

    As a result o her

    pleading no contest thecharges o frst-degreemanslaughter, two countso reckless driving and

    three counts o recklesslyendangering another per-son were dropped.

    Keating returned tothe courthouse on Mon-day, October 7th, where

    she was convicted o sec-ond-degree manslaughterand driving under the in-

    uence. She will serve sixyears in custody on thecharge o second-degree

    manslaughter and timeto be served concurrentlywith a one-year sentence

    or driving under the in-uence.

    Following her time

    behind bars, Keating willhave three years o post-

    prison supervision and

    her driving privileges arepermanently revoked.She has also been fned$2,558.

    Te victim o th e 1997crash had amily mem-bers present in the court

    room during Keatingssentencing, to which Ke-ating apologized in a brie

    statement she read to thecourt. I am deeply sorryor all the hurt and pain

    Ive caused so many peo-ple.

    At this time it is un-

    clear whether or not Ke-ating will ever be allowedto return to Canada once

    she has served her sen-tence. Her attorney addedthat, convicted elons are

    prohibited rom enteringCanada in most cases, but

    it will depend on circum-

    stances once shes com-pleted her time.

    Minnedosa Commu-

    nity ConerenceCentre was flled withsome traditional toe tap-ping blue grass, gospel

    rhythms and a whole lot ocharm on the evening o

    Wednesday, October 2nd

    as Rosie and the Riveterstook to the stage.

    T e trio o ladies,

    stemming rom Saska-

    toon, graced the Minnedo-sa stage with their peror-

    mance which included avariety o captivating vo-cal arrangements as wellas a ew o the groups

    original pieces.Te group gathers in-

    spiration rom Rosie the

    Riveter, an iconic symbolo the women who workedin actories in North

    America during WWII and

    in many cases was a sym-bol o the strength and

    power o women.Alexis Normand,

    Melissa Nygren and thegroups creator, Farideh

    Ceaser all have their ownsolo careers but come to-gether to perorm and are

    currently on tour throughManitoba stopping in anumber o towns includ-

    ing Virden, Portage laPrairie and Neepawa.

    We are on tour

    through the Manitoba ArtsNetwork, so it is a collec-tion o art councils that

    come together and bringartists through a variety odierent venues, explains

    Ceaser.Ceasers voice is rich,

    deep and seductive and

    she has released three re-cords, toured internation-

    ally and also perormsunder the name MunirihSparrow.

    Normand is the win-

    ner o Radio-CanadasMuziklips contest in 2009,semi-fnalist at the presti-

    gious Festival Internation-al de la chanson de Gran-by in Granby, Qubec, and

    is currently working on aull-length album.

    Nygren adds classic,

    sweet vocals to the group,and has been songwritingand perorming or more

    than a decade. She hasreleased our albums withher band and has toured

    extensively within Canadaand overseas.

    We went on a Sas-

    katchewan tour and wehave had the opportunity

    to go to Ontario, we werealso showcased at the In-ternational Vocal Line andJuno Fest, and other mu-

    sic ests but this is really

    our frst chance to get intoManitoba, says Ceaser.

    We really enjoymeeting new people andseeing new parts o Can-ada. We also enjoy spend-

    ing time together. Just likeeveryone else we havebusy personal lives and

    this is a great time or usto ocus on the music andeachother, especially on

    those long highway trips.Te Minnedosa Per-

    orming Arts Committee

    co-ordinated the Expres-sion Concert Series and

    was thrilled at the turn-

    out and perormance thatRosie and the Rivetersbrought to town.

    Later this month, Ex-pressions will host YadongGuan rio on at Minnedo-

    sa United Church.

    RCMP release

    Click. Te split-second decision to buckle up canmake a huge dierence when motorists are in-volved in collisions. Every year, the RCMP responds to

    highway collisions where seatbelt use means survival.It means people get to go home to their amilies.Buckling up is a simple thing to do, but the benef tsare huge. When a vehicle strikes an object at highwayspeed, the orce o the impact is tremendous, turningunbuckled passengers into missiles within the vehicle

    who can harm themselves and other passengers.Te occupants o the vehicle are in a very vulner-

    able position i they are not appropriately restrained.In two-vehicle collisions, those unbuckled will oten

    hit the dash frst. In single-vehicle rollovers, the driv-er or passengers requently will be ound ejected andcrushed by the vehicle.

    Collisions can happen anywhere at any time,whether it is driving to the corner store, picking up your

    kids at the arena or fnally making that long-plannedroad trip, said Insp. Joanne Keeping, O cer in Chargeo D Division RCMP ra c Services. Make sure ev-eryone in the vehicle is buckled up; it could save a lie.On average, about 40 per cent o people killed in

    tra c collisions in rural Manitoba are unbelted or notwearing a helmet. Tat represents about 35 peopleeach year.Under the Highway ra c Act, the fne or ailing

    to wear the seatbelt is $292.

    Dear Editor,

    Did you know that 18million Canadians aremembers o at least one othe 9,000 plus co-opera-tives across this country?In act, many membersthemselves might not evenrealize that they belong toone. I am hoping that wecan help change this dur-ing Co-op Week in Canada,

    which runs rom October13th to 19th.

    Co-operatives cre-ate jobs and contributeto regional economies

    where private businesseswould not see the desiredreturns on equity. Tis isparticularly true in ruralareas, where oten the onlyconvenience store or gasstation is a Co-op and theonly fnancial institution intown is a credit union. Co-operatives ollow a modelthat greatly empowerseach member, resulting in

    a wonderul combinationo business success and so-cial responsibilitywhichplays an important role inthe economy and in ourcommunities.

    Having been recon-

    f rmed in my positionas Co-operatives Advo-cate or the Liberal Partyo Canada ollowing lastsummers reorganizationo responsibilities withinthe Liberal team, I ampleased to continue pro-moting Canadas co-opera-tives and their values to thebest o my abilities. In thatrole last year, I proposedto the House o Commonsthe creation o a specialparliamentary committee

    to determine the needs oCanadas co-operatives.Moreover, in response togrowing Liberal pressure inParliament and elsewhere,the Conservative govern-ment backtracked and

    agreed in January o thisyear to provide reasonablemortgages and refnancingor housing co-operatives.oday, I am committedto continuing the fght toensure that co-operativesare better capitalized andthat the housing subsidyagreements with housingco-operatives are renewed.I am a frm believer in the

    value o the co-operativemodel and in the potentialo co-operatives to grow

    and developi the play-ing feld is level.

    Co-op Week will becelebrated throughoutCanada. Tis is an oppor-tunity or Canadian co-operative and credit unionmembers to celebrate theact that they have collec-tively helped to build thiscountry and to recognizetheir continuing contribu-tions at home and abroad.

    A good way or all to cel-ebrate Co-op Week wouldbe to visit or learn about atleast one co-operative in

    your neighbourhood or re-gion. You might even con-sider joining one! By con-tinuing to work togetheror the common good, we

    will sustain and grow theco-operative sector.

    Sincerely,

    Local. Organic. Hor-mone ree. Gluten ree.No pesticides. Nothing ar-tifcial. Tese are the buzz-

    words in ood marketingtoday. Who can object to allo these wholesome sound-ing concepts?

    Food companies aretrying to take us back to atime which many consum-ers imagine as idyllic, pureand healthy. Te act thisis an eective marketingstrategy is proven by howmany companies are using

    it. Tese are not ad cam-paigns rom little stores,but strategic marketinge orts by our largest gro-cery stores and restaurantchains.

    wo things strike meabout these trends. Firsto , the good old days

    were not nearly as good astodays advertising makesthem out to be. Some in so-ciety seem to want to pushproducers and armersback to the rural liestyleand production practices othe 1940s and 1950s. In oth-

    er words, houses with norunning water, wood heat,a standard o living belowpoverty, one room schooleducation, even longer

    work hours, etc.Te second thing that

    strikes me about the lat-est marketing trends is theportrayal o modern com-mercial agriculture as be-ing bad or our health andbad or the environment.Tis view is both wrong anddangerous.

    I have heard it said

    that trends like this are theindulgences o a rich so-ciety. Tis statement has aring o truth as not only willthis misinormation aboutagricultural practices hurtarmers and ranchers, butunchecked, it will have alarge impact on those whocan least a ord to spendmore on ood.

    Dont get me wrong.I applaud every producer

    who is able to access nichemarkets like local or or-ganic and to increase theirincomes through hard workand their marketing skills.However, I do have a prob-lem when some o thesemulti-million dollar mar-keting campaigns spreadinaccurate and damaginginormation about the waythe majority o our ood isproduced.

    Let us take a look atsome o the claims madeby the latest oodie trends,

    like the notion that ood ingreat-grandmas time wassomehow saer. Canadahas a strong science-basedood saety system. Yearater year, statistics romthe Public Health Agencyo Canada show that mod-ern agriculture is deliveringood that is saer than the

    year beore. Te days goneby are not so good whenone actually looks at theacts around incidences oood-borne illnesses.

    What about the claimsthat agriculture rom years

    gone by had less impacton the environment? Did

    you know that the droughtaced by Western Canadain the 1990s and 2000s

    was in act worse than thedroughts o the Dirty 30s?

    Yet, Manitoba soil did notblow into Ontario becausemodern production prac-tices, like the use o pesti-cides and biotechnology,have allowed agricultureto manage the soil andmoisture levels better. Howcould it be good or the en-

    vironment to go back to theold practices?Modern grazing prac-

    tices are an integral part ograssland ecosystems andhelp us meet everyonesconservation objectives.Economically viable beeproduction also providessociety with many envi-ronmental services such

    as preserving wetlands.Bee production both cre-

    ates jobs as well as deliversimportant environmentalgoods and services or allManitobans. Opposition to antibi-otics in livestock produc-tion is another advertisingtrend. But how can anyoneconsider it humane not totreat an animal that has be-come sick? Failure to treatillness is simply not a goodmanagement practice andit is not the right way to careor livestock.So how should agricul-

    ture respond to this grow-ing romanticized trend to-wards consumers seekingood produced like it was1930? We could just com-plain about misguided cityolk. But that wont changethe way our customers areselling the ood we pro-duce. Instead, agricultureneeds to get out ront andguide these trends. Weneed to show our urbancousins the eort we maketo protect the environmentand to care or our animals.Tis is the only way con-

    sumers will be inormedabout how agricultural pro-duction takes place todayand how it continues toevolve.

    Tis is one o the pur-poses o the recently re-

    vised Code o Practice orthe Care and Handling oBee Cattle. Te new code

    is practical and science-based. Bee producers have

    had the opportunity or in-put into the developmento the new code. Animal

    welare representatives,enorcement agencies andother representatives romcivil society were also di-rectly involved in develop-ing the new code. Te widerepresentation will helpensure that our eorts topromote the highest stan-dards o animal care aresupported and understoodby Canadians.Having a code o prac-

    tice is step one. Confrm-ing it is being ollowed willbe step two. Tere may besome who eel that hav-ing customers ask Are

    you ollowing the Code oPractice? is intererence intheir ranch. But as we haveseen in other industries andsectors o agriculture, wecan either try to get in rontand inorm these trends, orhave others like im Hor-tons and Walmart imposearbitrary and impracticalstandards on us withoutour consent or input.

    Many consumers areasking Where does myood come rom? We asproducers need to be readyto answer this question.Failure to do so will meanothers will answer it or usand history has shown thatit is never good to have oth-ers tell our story.

    Local dignitaries andcommunity membersjoined in the excitementat anners Crossing Ele-mentary School on Friday,

    October 4th to celebratethe schools brand newplay structure.

    anners CrossingSchool Playground En-hancement Commit-

    tee and Principal, JamesSheppard, hosted the

    grand opening to ac-

    knowledge the commu-nities generosity towardsthe new play structure.

    Sixteen months agowe let the Parent Adviso-ry Council know that our

    playground had reachedthe end o its useable liespan and needed to be re-

    placed, explained Shep-pard. Our Parent Advi-sory Council jumped into

    action and within a yearhad raised suf cient unds

    to build the playstructure

    you now see in our southplayground. Along withundraising activities that

    took place there were anumber o donations andcommunity sup port.

    According to Shep-pard, the new play struc-ture cost around $50,000

    and in the past, othernearby communities havetaken upwards o two to

    three years to raise thenecessary unds.I am amazed at how

    quickly the money was

    raised. anners Cross-ings ability to raise this

    money just goes to showthe community support,dedication and generosity

    o Minnedosa and area,adds Sheppard.Grade three and our

    students were invited to

    the grand opening as they

    were involved last year inthe selection o the playstructure design.

    Mayor Ray Orr ad-dressed the crowd, con-g r at u lat e d e ve r y o ne

    involved and HeatherHiggin spoke to the crowdon behal o the anners

    Crossing Parent AdvisoryCouncil.We would like to say

    a whole-hearted thank-you to the communit y be-cause getting this accom-

    plished in under a year is

    just unbelievab le. I reallydidnt think that we were

    going to be able to do itand I am sure there wereothers that had doubts,

    but this has really shownus how every little pennycan add up to be what you

    see outside, said Higgin.

    Funds raised in record time

    Te new play structure is great becauseit has bongos!

    Te monkey bars are really fun because youcan do a lot of tricks on them!

    Te twisty slide is the best because itgoes so fast!

    Irecently had the op-portunity to host somestudents or a night whoare cycling across Canada.

    Te purpose o their tripwas to help educate Ca-nadian youth about physi-

    cal activity and a healthyliestyle and its impor-tance in disease preven-

    tion throughout lie. Teywere organizing diferentactivities in schools and

    childrens clubs along theway. T ey also inspiredme to communicate to my

    new community the im-portance o physical activ-ity in daily lie.

    T e Integrated Pan-Canadian Healthy LivingStrategy o 2005 ound

    that each year over 2/3rdso Canadian deaths wererom our groups o chron-

    ic diseases: cardiovascu-

    lar, cancer, type II diabetes

    mellitus, and respiratory.Te total estimated cost inCanada o illness, disabil-

    ity and death rom thesechronic diseases is greaterthan 80 billion annually.

    All o the above have com-mon preventable risk ac-tors; including physical

    inactivity, unhealthy dietand tobacco use.Almost 1/4 o Canadi-

    ans above the age o 18 areobese, another 36% areoverweight. Approximate-

    ly 59% o Canadians areoverweight. Te Integrat-ed Pan-Canadian Healthy

    living Strategy o 2005aims to increase physicalactivity in Canadians by

    10%.According to the

    world health organization

    over 90% o type II diabe-tes and 80% o coronaryheart disease could be

    avoided or postponed by

    good nutrition and physi-

    cal activity.Te National Cancer

    Institutes Fact Sheet o

    April 2008 reports the ol-lowing inormation withregards to cancer and

    physical activity rom theCentre o Disease Control:

    Adults who increase

    intensity duration or re-quency o exercise candecrease their risk o

    colorectal cancer by 30 to40%. Tose participatingin higher intensity exer-

    cise will have the largestdecrease in risk.

    Tere is controversy

    or decreasing the risk obreast cancer with physi-cal activity, over 60 studies

    report the percentage riskas between 20 to 80%. Testudies do agree that 30 to

    60 minutes o high inten-sity physical activity is as-sociated with a decrease

    in breast cancer risk.

    Regular physical ac-

    tivity will reduce the risko endometrial cancer by20 to 40%.

    Lung cancer risk canbe reduced by 20% by par-ticipating in regular high

    intensity physical activity.Physical activity can

    prevent progression and

    the risk o dying romprostate cancer.

    Te Mayo Clinic re-

    ports the ollowing addi-tional benets o regularphysical activity: improve-

    ment in mood, weightmaintenance, strengthensheart and lungs, promotes

    better sleep, improvementin your sex lie, and physi-cal activity can be un and

    social.Participating in physi-

    cal activity is an easy thing

    to do in this town, wehave walking trails, a gym,

    an excellent way to start

    It has come time to re-place the Minnedosa FireDepartments older fretruck and so the fre hall

    will soon have a new addi-tion to its eet.

    We are currently in

    the process o getting a newtruck ordered. At this timethe fre department is work-

    ing on the specs o whatthey would like the newtruck to have, once they get

    that to us, we will prepare atender, explains Rick Saler,Protective Service Council-

    lor or the own.Currently the own

    has money put away in a

    reserve to cover the costs othe new fre truck and oncea tender has been placed,

    according to Saler, it cantake another 12-15 monthsto receive the truck.

    It is a government reg-ulation that fre trucks arereplaced every 20 years. It is

    a saety and insurance stan-dard. I believe the truck we

    are using right now is about

    21 years old, so were def-nitely in line or a new one,

    says Saler.Once the new truck hasarrived in town and is able

    to be utilized, the own willbe looking to either tenderthe old truck out or sale

    or trade it in and put thetrade-in value towards thenew truck.

    We will move orwardwith whichever option will

    be more benefcial or the

    own. Because we are asmall town the equipment

    on the trucks dont getexcessive use and so thepumps are all still in very

    good shape and the truckcould still be utilized in asmaller community, Saler

    adds.I the older truck is ten-dered out it would likely be

    sold to a small communityfre hall or perhaps a near-

    by Hutterite colony.

    Inormation to the

    public was our next step,

    mentioned Nelson. In-orming the public about

    what is going and in someinstances to prepare orevacuation.

    I evacuation is nec-essary steps would betaken to evacuate those

    closest to the site and themost vulnerable. Once anevacuation is called or,

    volunteers would also godoor-to-door to make surethe message has been re-

    ceived.T e exercise went

    well and certainly gives us

    a ew areas to work on andhighlights certain thingsthat we will now take and

    improve. Tis exercise also

    opened some eyes and

    brought some ownershipsupport by the elected o-fcials. T ey are the only

    ones able to declare a stateo emergency, so it is vitalthat they understand the

    process, says Nelson.Ater the exercise,

    the emergency measures

    group held a debriefngto discuss the activity andthe areas that need to be

    re-examined, improved orchanged.

    T ere are certainly

    a number o small areaswe need to improve andareas where we require

    more training. Nelsonalso mentioned the needor more volunteers.

    Upon calling all othe emergency operation

    volunteers, only hal were

    able to show up or the ex-

    ercise. Mayor Ray Orr was

    present, along with Darylesarowski, transportationo cial, Marcy Nylen-Ne-

    metchek, emergency so-cial services coordinator,three members o the lo-

    cal RCMP, Kevin Marcino,public works o cial, andBob McNabb, communi-

    cations coordinator.It became very clear

    that we are in need o more

    volunteers to take on newpositions as well as to bebackups or the positions

    we currently have. We areactively recruiting volun-teers and there is no expe-

    rience necessary. We willarrange training or what-ever position you can take

    on, explains Nelson.Interested parties can

    BOLLMANMarch , - October ,

    Frank passed away peaceully in Brandon on Saturday, October 5,2013 at the age o 91 years.

    Frank was born on the amily arm at Moline, Manitoba onMarch 10, 1922. He attended school in Moline and worked on thearm until enlisting in the RCAF in 1942. He trained as an aircratmechanic in Winnipeg (MB.), oronto (ON.), St. Tomas (ON.),Dorval (QC.) and Boundary Bay (B.C.). At a dance, he met June

    Oklund and ater she visited the arm in the summer o 1946 tocheck out the arming liestyle, they married in B.C. in November,

    1946. Tey arrived at the arm on Boxing Day and were stormedin or two months. What a Prairie welcome or the newlyweds!

    Within our years, two children had joined the arm lie. For the birtho his son Ray, Frank called a neighbour to pick up June in his snow-plane

    to travel a ew miles over snow-blocked roads to reach the car o another neighbour to get June toRivers or Rays birth. Te arrival o his daughter Elaine heralded the arrival o electricity on thearm.

    Farming provided a good lie or the amily. Frank enjoyed arming along with his brother Bert

    where they shared machinery and worked together on nearly every arm task. His arming careerstarted with the use o the original horse-power or every job requiring muscle. echnologystarted moving ast - the gasoline engine, the hydraulic lit, power steering and he ended with atractor complete with a cab and an FM radio. He started with a mixed arm. Te milk cow stayeduntil Ray got a drivers license. Te pigs stayed until Elaine got a university bursary. He took pridein his crops, his cattle, keeping his yard tidy and hoeing his weed-ree rows o potatoes! He retiredrom arming ater the 1984 harvest.

    He enjoyed his herd o Shorthorn cattle and would show his cattle at local airs. His daughter,Elaine, was the Manitoba Shorthorn Lassie in 1970 and she attended many agricultural airs inManitoba to promote the Shorthorns.

    Frank joined the board o the Moline Co-op Store shortly ater his ather retired rom the boardand continued on the board until the store fnally became un-economical to operate and it wasclosed in 1981.

    Frank was a strong supporter o the co-operative movement. He was one o the frst people tojoin the Farmers Co-operative Seed Cleaning Plant in Rivers - an idea that had not been triedelsewhere.

    He was a strong supporter o the Canadian Wheat Board price-pooling policy that paid thesame price or wheat regardless o the month the wheat was delivered during the year. When

    selling cattle, he would ask - why is my cow worth a dierent amount today than yesterday?Frank also actively participated in almost every community activity including, in his youngeryears, playing baseball, hockey and curling or Moline teams. He was a board member or theMoline School District and or the Manitoba Pool Elevator in Moline and actively participated inthe activities o the Moline United Church, the Moline branch o the Canadian Order o Foresters,the Moline Rink and the Rapid City Legion. For many years, he was a leader or the Moline-Cardale 4-H Bee Cal Club and later the Rapid City 4-H Bee Cal Club. Both children received alot o encouragement or their participation in 4-H activities. He was proud, in his quiet way, oeach o his children receiving the district 4-H Gold Watch Award in their respective fnal year in4-H.

    Also he was proud that each o his children pursued urther education - and ound jobs in workthat they enjoyed. Ray worked in the Agriculture Division o Statistics Canada until retiring in2011. Elaine taught the music program in an elementary school in Te Pas up to her retirementin 2006.

    Ater retiring to Brandon in 1985, Frank volunteered at the Commonwealth Air raining PlanMuseum. A number o the planes now on display are the result o his contribution to the team o

    volunteers who reconstructed the amiliar yellow WW2 training aircrat.Many retirement activities flled his time. Gol became a regular summer activity and his

    grandchildren played gol with Grandather on many summer visits. In the winter, his attentionswitched to curling.

    In addition, there was time or travel and cruises. Frank and June attended almost everyChristmas concert that their daughter Elaine organized at Mary Duncan School in Te Pas. Onother visits to Te Pas, Frank always had a list o jobs waiting or him itemized neatly on Elainesridge. Also, there were visits to Ottawa to see the grandchildren and visits with many relatives

    were always on the agenda.Frank spent his last years at the Fairview Personal Care Home in Brandon. Te sta enjoyed his

    gentle and kind character. He enjoyed a good laugh and he liked to tease, to the end.Frank was predeceased by his wie, June and his two brothers, Leonard and Bert. He is survived

    by his children, Ray and Elaine, and by his grandchildren, Eric and MiAnne.Cremation has taken place and a Memorial Service will be held at the Brockie Donovan Chapel,
