‘We serve the world’

By Ursula Maxwell-LewisGood medicine isn’t limited to dis-

pensing prescriptions. Just ask Henry and Anna Cheng’s customers.

Cloverdale’s award-winning Pharma-save Health Centre at 5778 176A Street celebrated 30 years of business on Satur-day with an open house more reminis-cent of a family gathering. 

Dispensing hugs, good wishes, compli-ments and camaraderie, the Chengs, and their sta� ,  appeared to be on a � rst name basis with the never ending stream of customers. 

Inside, assorted guest health profes-sionals shared a wide range of practical advice. 

Outside old-timers soaked up sun-shine, swapped “I remember when” yarns, listened to the band, bought refreshments to support the SPCA, and waited for the big event – the head-shaving.

Pharmacists Lyle Sunada and Fred Cheng, and store manager Martin Leonard, had pledged to lose their locks (courtesy of Michaud’s hairstylists) if $2,000 was raised for the BC Cancer Foundation. 

“I’m not losing hair, I’m gaining face,” Sunada joked as the buzzing began.  Fred Cheng noted his wife would miss running her � ngers through his hair. Leonard settled for a grimace, while the crowd cheered their approval.

Dr. Henry Cheng is justi� ably proud of his reputation. With international medi-cal degrees, an extensive background in natural medicine, and specialized equine dispensing expertise, the pharmacy – once located on  Cloverdale’s main street – lures dedicated customers from around the Lower Mainland. It’s reputation is enviable.

Cloverdale Pharmasave turns 30

Pierce calls it quits

See FAMILY BUSINESS / Page 3

By Jennifer langWhen you’ve al-

ways treated your patients and sta� like family, it’s a given that your re-tirement party is going to feel more like a cosy reunion than a stu� y busi-ness function.

Saturday, Clover-dale Optometry is throwing a retire-ment party for the founder and for-mer proprietor, Dr. Holger Pierce, who’s step-ping away from the business a� er 50 years.

All former patients are invited to attend the party, says Pierce, who reveals that most of his them probably called him by his � rst name.

Entering full-� edged retirement has been a gradual process for Pierce, who at 73 remains active.

Denizens of downtown Cloverdale will re-member his daily noon-hour runs, later sup-planted by long walks.

He cycles, walks, plays golf, and curls in the winter. He and his wife, Anne, who also worked at the o� ce, live on an acre, so there’s plenty of yard work demanding attention.

He also volunteers at Cloverdale Station and at the Peace Arch Visitor Centre, direct-ing tourists to the top must-see sights.

Considering he’s been in optometry for � ve decades, it’s surprising to learn Pierce didn’t always want to be an optometrist.

When he was in high school in Surrey, he considered studying forestry, among other things.

But in his Grade 12 year, the students start-ed asking their teacher what he would have done if he hadn’t gone into teaching.

“Optometrist,” came the reply. “It rang a bell.”

and filled by regular mail.

“I’m constantly be-ing asked when I am going to open in Prince George – and many other places.”

He chuckles, but ad-mits he is handing some of the reins over to the younger generation.

Truly a family busi-ness, Cheng’s three chil-dren are already well-known to customers. Fred and Christine are pharmacists. Josephine handles marketing, PR and media. Son-in-law Martin Leonard is the store manager.

Although Cheng will remain at the helm as the senior business and technical advisor, he is clearly delighted that the second generation is capably relieving him of renovations and daily management deci-sions. Compounding rooms for sterile tech-niques are high on the

agenda. This would al-low for the development of house brands of eye drops,  a range of other products, and generally expand their already extensive complemen-tary integrated medi-cine base and lines for humans and animals.

Constantly increasing

demand for specialized one-on-one meetings has also made more consulting rooms a key reno list issue.

Over the years the Chengs have received many community and service awards, includ-ing the prestigious Friends of Pharmacies

Award presented to non-pharmacists in recognition of outstand-ing contributions in the field, a testament to a lo-cal family business that remains in good health, and in capable hands.

To the editor;Twenty years of change. Twenty years ago

the Municipality of Surrey took a big step into the future.

� e council of the day – Mayor Bose, Coun-cillors Watkins, Hunt, Higginbotham, Ralston, Villeneuve, Fomich, Shrenk and myself decid-ed it was time to grow up or at least graduate to adulthood and begin to take our place as one of Canada’s great cities.

From country roads and farmers’ elds, to high-rises and rapid transit we have seen the changes.  From the City of Parks to the Future Lives Here.

It all started in 1879 when Surrey settlers were given letters patent to form a District Munici-pality and then in 1993 we became a City. 

I remember cutting and serving the cake

in Bear Creek and the city celebrations. I was under police protection at the time  because as Acting Mayor I had prevented a U.S. Nazi group from holding a party in Surrey.

From the days of reeves and Provincial Police to the City of Culture and Parks, Sur-rey has seen it all. � ere is so much more to come.

I want to thank the people of Sur-rey who elected me and gave me a chance as a Surrey ‘boy’ to have the honour of being an alderman, then a city councillor and to be a small part of Surrey becoming a city.

We have gone from 165,000 people in the ‘80s to a city with nearly one half million now.  Challenges have been met, mistakes have been made and Surrey has grown to

become a leader in so many ways.I also want to recognize Mayor Bose and

the city councillors of 1993 for their contribu-tions. We had our battles and growing pains in the councils of the day. 

� ere were some very strong personalities and lots of articulate and passion-ate debate which in my view led to some very good decisions.  We were unanimous in the deci-sion to become a city and the re-sults of that decision can be seen throughout Surrey.  We took the steps to get to where we are to-

day. � e future is bright and I’m proud to be a Surreyrite. Happy Birthday Surrey!

Thursday, September 12, 2013 The Cloverdale Reporter 5

By Jennifer LangWhen an upside

down, wrinkly-faced English mastiff named “Chewie” appeared on the front cover of the Cloverdale Reporter in June, 2010, we described him as having the face of a good listener.

That’s because Chewie (“Chewbacca”) is a 200-pound therapy dog who’s also been trained to help young learners gain confidence reading.

At the time, he was working with students at Don Christian Elemen-tary, where once a week, Chewie was listening as children read to him in a relaxing, safe, non-judg-mental environment, improving their reading skills.

Chewie and his handler, B.J. Fleetham of South Cloverdale, are part of the Reading Edu-cation Assistance Dogs program.

Last year they were working with students at another local school,

Hazelgrove Elementary.Chewie, she says, has

a laid-back personality and loves his job work-

ing with kids. Last Sunday, Chewie

was in position for another honour – he

helped lead the Paws For A Cause walk-a-thon at Crescent Park in South Surrey, one of 35 walks taking place for the BC SPCA.

Chewie was joined by Fleetham’s other therapy dogs as special guests: Liam, a lanky Irish Wolfhound, and Special Agent Magee, a bloodhound who has just received his AKC Therapy Dog title; the team works with the BC SPCA as part of educa-tion programs, including the summer day camps for children.

The BC SPCA hoped to raise $1 million across B.C. through Paws for a Cause for its programs and work with abused, injured, neglected and homeless animals who are cared for in SPCA shelters.

Participants raised pledges, and invited friends and family to join them – and their furry, four-legged companions.

1912 electric car in Cloverdale Before there was the Prius, the Scion or the Tesla, there was

the 1912 Detroit Electric car. Manufactured by the Anderson Car Company, it ran on nickel-iron batteries, had a range of close to 100 miles, and was a popular alternative to the gas-powered cars of the day.

A well-appointed 1912 Detroit Electric owned by the Van-couver Electric Vehicle Association is on view this weekend at Cloverdale Station, 176A Street and Hwy 10. Surreyites are invited to take advantage of this opportunity to see the car, on loan from the Stave Falls BC Hydro Powerhouse Museum.

6 The Cloverdale Reporter Thursday, September 12, 2013

From page one

That summer, he was working in Victoria, where he introduced himself to an optom-etrist, who showed him around the practice.

“That was it!”He opened Holger

Pierce Optometry on 176 Street on August, 8, 1963, when he was just 23, fresh out of univer-sity.

After nearly 20 years at the original location, the business moved to 5666 176 Street, where Pierce Optometry con-tinued to thrive.

In 2008, the business

was sold to Dr. Ashifa Nurani and Dr. Anisa Nurani, sisters who moved the practice to its newest location at 5718 176A Street.

Although he now claims he was ready to retire, Pierce stayed on, gradually reducing the number of days he worked from four and a half to one and a half days a week, winding things down in 2012.

“After 49 years, it was time to move on,” he jokes.

Dr. Ashifa Nurani says she has learned a lot from Pierce.

“I think the biggest

thing is treating my practice like family,” she says, noting that it’s not uncommon for her to see third-generation patients who have re-mained loyal to Pierce and the practice.

“It was small town, friendly,” Pierce adds. “I’m very pleased that Ashifa and Anisa are carrying on in that way. They haven’t changed the format of things. It isn’t high-pressure over there.”

Over 250 invitations have been sent out in advance of Saturday’s retirement party.

“That’s what happens

when you practice for 49 years,” he laughs.

Two of the invites have gone to people who have been patients since the 1960s, under-scoring the continuity of care he’s been able to provide.

The biggest change to the profession, he says, is the arrival of group practices. When he started out, optom-etrists were self practi-tioners.

“They might have a partner, but mostly we were individual. Now, they might have five, six, or seven people in there.”

These days, there’s also a lot more com-petition. When Pierce Optometry first opened its doors, there was only one, part-time optom-etrist in Cloverdale, and that fellow packed it in about nine months later.

Cloverdale, he says, has changed more in the past 10 to 15 years than in the previous 35. There’s more shopping and amenities like rec-reational facilities.

The closure of the Surrey Co-Op, a fixture of downtown Clover-dale, was a big change. “It was the place where everybody shopped.”

Pierce and Nurani say another big reason for the success of the busi-ness was Sylvia Leaf, a valued staff member who did everything from answer phones, perform preliminary tests on patients, fit glasses, and help pa-tients pick out the right pair.

“She was the number-one reason people came to see me,” he says.

Leaf joined him on an eye care mission to Vietnam – a career highlight.

Many of the patients – women who had tended the rice paddies in the absence of husbands – needed cataract surgery.

Exposure to bright sunlight is one of the leading causes of cata-racts, he explains. There

was an ophthalmologi-cal clinic as part of the program.

“It was just an assem-bly line” of cataract sur-geries, he recalls.

The pair were plan-ning another trip when Leaf suffered a stroke, halting plans for the re-tirement party, too, un-til she was well enough to attend.

That’s why the retire-ment party is taking place 50 years after he first hung up his shingle.

It’s been a long road to recovery, but, “she’s coming on Saturday,” smiles Pierce.

– All former patients and staff are invited to the retire-ment party and open house

at Cloverdale Optometry, 5718 176A Street, Satur-

day, Sept. 14 from 1-5 p.m.

An eyecare mission to Vietnam was a career highlight

Joking around with a heroBy Jennifer LangMillions of Canadians now consider

Terry Fox one of our greatest heroes, but to one little girl in the summer of 1980, Terry was just a regular guy – if already larger than life.

She remembers knowing he was “someone important” when they met. “But I truly didn’t understand the scope of it,” recalls Kerry Anne Hol-loway.

Back then, she saw Fox through a nine-year-old’s eyes. She and her brother Patrick, 8, spent that adventurous summer travel-ling through Central Canada with Terry Fox and their father, Bill Vigars, a Cana-dian Cancer Society publicist who acted

as Fox’s public relations organizer on the Marathon of Hope.

Fox, she says, liked to pull pranks, joke around on the run, and have food fights, even though there were tense moments,

too, which Holloway didn’t understand fully at the time.

“I think my brother and I helped him to relax. I think I saw the best of him, as kids see people.”

Years later, she understood the level of self-sacrifice it took for Fox to run a mara-thon every day, wearing a prosthetic leg, starting out

before dawn in all kinds of weather – all because he had a dream to raise $1 for ev-ery Canadian for cancer research.

Holloway is the guest speaker at this year’s Cloverdale Terry Fox Run, getting underway Sunday, Sept. 15 at the Clover-dale Legion, 17567 57 Avenue. Registra-tion starts at 9 a.m., followed by a warm-up and speakers at 10 a.m., just before participants set out on a 10 km, 5 km, or 1 km run, walk, stroll or roll.

At summer’s end, Holloway and her brother had to go back to school in On-tario, when Fox was near Thunder Bay, which turned out to be his last stop on the Marathon of Hope.

“We went into his trailer and said good-bye to him,” recalls Holloway, who lives in Burnaby. “I don’t know if he knew then that he was sick again. I wonder if at some level he knew.”

8 The Cloverdale Reporter Thursday, September 12, 2013

When she enrolled in Grade 5 at a new school that fall, no-body believed the story of how she’d spent her summer.

The siblings came out to B.C. once to visit Fox at his home and in the hospital, “but we didn’t realize he might die until it happened.”

Getting to know Terry Fox had a lasting impact on her life. “It’s important to me to be able to help others and contribute to their well-being,” says Hol-loway, now a registered clinical counsellor.

“Thinking about his deter-mination has always helped me when I’m faced with challenges

I think I can’t get through.”The Cloverdale Terry Fox

Run is a family-friendly event. There is no fee to register,

and all participants are wel-come, including walkers, run-ners, strollers, families and pets (on leash, please).

There are clearly marked 1 km, 5 km, and 10 km routes. Visit www.terryfox.org to regis-ter, or register on run day.

There will be a silent auc-tion with items donated by lo-cal merchants, along with face painting, balloon animals, lo-cal entertainment and food.

Proceeds go to the Terry Fox Foundation.

To volunteer, email Elaine Gooliaeff at [email protected].

From page 7

A lasting impact Witnesses soughtPolice are asking anyone who

witnessed a Sept. 7 collision in Cloverdale to come forward to help the investigation.

Just after noon, a blue Plymouth Neon was turning left on High-way 10 onto 177B Street, when an eastbound white GMC Sierra with Alberta plates hit the Neon on the passenger side.

The two drivers escaped without serious injuries, but the 46-year-old female passenger of the car was air-lifted to hospital. As of Tuesday, she was in critical but stable condition.

Surrey RCMP want to speak with any witnesses, particularly if they saw how the GMC Sierra was being driven prior to the collision. Alcohol is not being considered a factor in the accident. Call Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 and ask to speak with Cst. Mike Halskov.

LASSIE DOODLE PUPPIES (Collie x Poodle)Born Father’s Day (June 16). Mom is a PB small (45 lbs.) Rough Collie and Dad is a PB small (50 lbs) Standard Poodle. Puppies are black with varying amounts of white on paws and chest and some are blue merle. Both males and females available. We have bred this litter special to create the per-fect family companion (intelligent, gentle, easy to train, always willing to please, happy indoors and out-doors, good with children and ani-mals, low to no shed). We are a 4H (agility, obedience, showmanship) family and our dogs are a part of our home and life and we wish the same for our puppies. Please con-sider the time and commitment needed to raise a dog and you will have our support and guidance for life. Pups will have fi rst shots and deworming. Black males are $850, females and blue merles are $950.604-820-4827
