The night after his wedding day, Gerry Gaudet was behind bars.

It was the end of January 1946.After getting married in Med-

icine Hat, Alta., the soldier who had spent two-and-half years in Europe and had just taken a sev-en-day train ride across the coun-try to fi nally see his longtime fi -ancée Irene, reported to his depot in Calgary only to fi nd himself accused of being AWOL.

“The MPs came and got me out of the hotel and yanked me by the scruff of the neck and put me in the hoosegow,” says Gaudet, now 93 and widowed.

It took some begging the next day, but he was released and had his discharge from the army

back-dated.He was a civilian again and free

to continue a romance with a woman that was to last decades.

Gaudet, who now lives in Guild-ford, fi rst met Irene when he was on duty in Medicine Hat in late 1942.

At the time, Gaudet was a member of a Royal Canadian En-gineers unit building a prison-er-of-war camp. He and a buddy, both in uniform, met Irene and a girlfriend of hers on the street walking into a restaurant.

Gaudet and Irene were smitten, and a romance blossomed before Gaudet was called away to war. But not before he promised to keep writing while away and to marry her as soon as he got back home.

He kept both promises.The roughly 300 letters, now in

his possession, caught the atten-tion of Langley’s Jennifer Thomp-son about a year ago.

At the time, Gaudet and Thomp-son’s late father John Thompson received the Légion d’Honneur — France’s highest military award — in Cloverdale from the Consul General of France in Canada.

Thompson took some mental notes, then got to know Gaudet better after her father passed away last summer.

“Irene was just as much a part of the war as Gerry was,” says Thompson, having sifted through letters that Gaudet wrote to his love “Plum” during the war.

He wrote every two or three days, and she wrote back from

home, but he wasn’t allowed to keep her letters after reading them. Only his letters to her re-main.

And because of the two- or three-month delay in the deliv-ery of letters and packages, both Gaudet and Irene knew little of their opposite’s immediate day-to-day situations.

Gaudet wasn’t wounded in battle during the war, but he did crash his motorcycle in En-gland in early 1944. He spent two months in hospital.

After mending, he was tempo-rarily transferred to a unit other than his own, the 20th Field Com-pany, engineers attached to the First Canadian Army.

He found himself on a barge bound for Juno Beach on D-Day,

June 6, 1944.Gaudet did what he could to

stay alive for the next month un-til his 23rd Field Company caught up with him. He spent the rest of the war as a motorcycle dispatch rider, doing reconnaissance, clearing mines, moving and re-pairing army vehicles, including boats, and building and repairing bridges.

“Whatever they threw at you,” he says. “There was no special-ized job.”

His unit supported the boat rescue of a trapped Allied Forces army at Arnhem, Holland, in Sep-tember 1944.

“We brought 3,500 of them back.”

Second World War veteran Gerry Gaudet, 93, kept a promise to his fi ancée Irene: He’d come home when the war ended and marry her. Langley’s Jennifer Thompson took an interest in the couple’s love story. She has recorded and shared his stories, and penned a tribute to Gaudet and his late wife, based on the letters they exchanged during the war.

Emergency Response Team (ERT) members arrive at a Langley City address on Fraser Highway near 201 Street Tuesday afternoon to execute a search warrant and arrest the occupants of a ground-level suite in a new townhouse complex.

DAN FERGUSON Langley Times

DAN FERGUSONTimes Reporter

Heavily-armed police offi cers raided a Langley City residence on Fraser Highway near 201 Street Tuesday afternoon.

Members of the Emergency Response Team arrived around 4 p.m. in an armoured truck.

They blocked off the street and used a loudspeaker to tell occupants of a fi rst-fl oor suite that the ERT was there to serve a search warrant, that the people inside were under arrest and for them to exit the premises.

After about 20 minutes it was determined that no one was in the residence and the ERT stood down.

Members of the Langley RCMP remained at the scene.

One person was later arrested without incident on a breach of recognizance charge.

Police said the ERT became involved because there was a tip that there could be weapons inside the suite.

However, none were found.One (non-police) source told The Times that the

address appeared to be the same location that was raided previously by RCMP as part of a mail theft in-vestigation.

One man is dead after a fi re destroyed a pool house at a single family residence on 76B Crescent near 227 Crescent Wednesday night.

Township fi re crews were called out at 9:45 p.m. on Feb. 10, and arrived to fi nd a de-tached pool house completely engulfed in fl ames.

About 30 to 45 minutes later, they were told there may be someone inside. Once the fi re was brought under control, a search team was sent in and a victim was found.

The fi re was contained before it caused any major damage to an adjacent home, also on the

property.“There was a bit of an expo-

sure fi re from the pool house ... onto the home, but crews man-aged to contain it to the exteri-or and to the roof sector,” said Township assistant fi re chief Pat Walker.

About 25 fi refi ghters were on scene from three separate sta-tions with six apparatus.

Details on the cause of the fi re have yet to be determined. An engine is still on scene, and crews are working with the Langley RCMP and BC Coroners Service.

“At this point we are just start-ing to do our investigation, so it’s under investigation as we speak,” Walker said.

B.C. is adding eight ambulanc-es and 34 paramedics in the Low-er Mainland — including two in Langley — as a fi rst step as the government promises major re-forms to improve substandard emergency response times.

The new action plan unveiled recently by B.C. Emergency Health Services calls for big changes to how minor emer-gency calls are handled — more on-the-spot treatment by para-medics or even medical advice by phone is likely rather than the standard practice of an am-bulance ride to hospital.

“There are still too many pa-

tients waiting too long for an ambulance who need one and there are too many patients re-ceiving an ambulance and a transport to an ED (emergency department) that don’t require it,” BCEHS executive vice-presi-dent Linda Lupini said.

Accompanying the plan is an independent review that found it takes an average of 10 minutes and 24 seconds for ambulances to reach life-threatening calls in the Lower Mainland and Greater Victoria.

A new target of under nine minutes for 75 per cent of those critical calls is being adopted, in line with international stan-dards. And the review warns

population growth and aging will drive up call volumes six per cent a year and push ambulance response times up to more than 15 minutes by 2020 if no im-provements are made.

The eight extra ambulance that are being deployed include three in Surrey, two in Langley, two in Abbotsford and one on the North Shore. Extra paramed-ics have also been added in the Tri Cities.

But Lupini said that is just an immediate stop gap to relieve pressure, with further improve-ment required through a com-bination of more resources and innovation.

Ambulance reforms pledged to shrink wait times in B.C.

Gaudet covered the route of the Canadian Army in Western Europe: France, Belgium, Hol-land and Germany.

Following the medal ceremo-ny a year ago, Thompson re-corded Gaudet’s story through interviews, photos and let-ters, as well as other veterans,

including her father. She’s shared the stories with fami-lies of the veterans she’s met.

Earlier this year, she penned a tribute, “What Makes Love Last” (see above), based on Gaudet’s letters to Irene while he was away.

Thompson says he’s an ex-ample of how love can be deeper that what contempo-

rary romance is made out to be, especially around Valen-tine’s Day.

“Take if from an expert,” she advises.

Both Gaudet and fellow vet-eran and Légion d’Honneur recipient John Thompson were widowed years ago.

Both of their romances lasted 58 years.

As he survived the battles of the Second World War, with the support of his beloved “Plum,” also known as Irene from his letters, there was a com-bination of things that kept love alive.

The couple’s story is about a journey — two people who dared to be real and openly honest. A couple who shaped a relationship that was years in the making and recorded in numerous letters Gerry sent home.

“Plum you can never imagine how much I love you! Darling if I can only have you, so I could call you mine, I would be the happiest boy in the world. Remember Plum, I will always love you. Remind me Plum, how you felt the fi rst time we kissed. Could you dear remind me in your next letter?”

Gerry didn’t reveal his hands were still shak-ing as he wrote this, not mentioning the human guile of war that he has just witnessed.

What makes love last?A combination of commitment, understanding

and friendship.A solid relationship followed by a marriage con-

tract.Two people who share a promise and dare to be

honest and raw.Living on a dream for the future.Enduring the temptations of loneliness.During the Second World War, for more than

three long years, Gerry waited to return to “The Hat,” the small town where he and his Plum fi rst kissed and made their promise to each other.

For Gerry, was it love at fi rst sight? Probably. Irene was the only woman he completely loved. He met her as a boy and returned as a man. Would she still want him?

Plum was tired and done paying ransom to the wicked war. Now, after three long years, she needed his word. His commitment.

For 58 years following Gerry’s return, they would celebrate, as Gerry says, the simple things in life.

Every day. Each other’s smile. Holding hands.

A hot cup of coffee and a donut.And most of all, the freedom to love. This proved

to be enough.— Jennifer L. Thompson

So much more than a homeless shelter


A wedding blooper featuring a Langley resident’s fi ve-year-old son is getting interna-tional attention.

This Sunday (Feb. 14) Amie Edmondson’s comical clip from her wedding in July is be-ing aired on America’s Funniest Home Videos at 7 p.m. on ABC.

She describes her son as simply “doing something comical” in the video, and says the Valentine’s Day episode is very fi tting for their wedding day blooper.

The clip could also be featured on you-tube.com/AFVOfficial or facebook.com/AFV following Sunday’s ep-isode.

Local couple’s wedding blooper to be

featured on AFV

Without changes in procedure, she estimated, up to 30 more ambulances would be required by 2020 and at least 10 single re-sponder vehicles.

While more money is being requested, much of the planned reforms focus on other methods to speed up ambulance response times to critical calls and to can-cel or redirect ambulance trans-port for less urgent calls that can be handled differently.

Lupini said many of those calls “could be dealt with by physi-cians over the phone or a para-medic seeing and treating a pa-tient without bringing a patient to an emergency room, because that’s what really ties up re-sources.”

The top reform priority is to re-duce how long paramedics wait in hospital emergency depart-ments to hand over incoming patients so they can get back on the road. Fraser Health hospitals are expected to be at the fore-front of making the necessary ER reforms.

Faster dispatch and deploy-ment times to get ambulances in service is another strategy.

The latest reform plan comes in the wake of ongoing com-plaints from municipalities and their fi re departments of unac-ceptably long waits for ambu-lances to arrive and transport non-critical patients.

That was the result of a con-troversial restructuring of the B.C. Ambulance Service priority system that aimed to speed am-bulances to life-threatening calls but often slowed it to others.

Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis said he’s optimistic about the chang-es.

“It should make it more of an effi cient system,” he said.

Ambulance Paramedics of B.C. president Bronwyn Barter said the review confi rms the service is “extremely understaffed” and argued more immediate staff in-creases are required.

But she said there are “a lot of

positives” in the report, includ-ing the acknowledgment of the need for more resources and the move to reduce delays at hos-pitals, which consume 17,000 paramedic hours a year in urban areas.

NDP heath critic Judy Darcy said the government should have acted sooner in light of years of public outcry.

She predicted the plan will leave many people “still falling through the cracks” — and they may include those less acute cases where a decision is made they don’t need an ambulance response.

Eight additional ambulances will be added in southwestern B.C., in-cluding two in Langley, to address response time concerns.

Amie MacNeil is working on a big gift from her heart to the Canadian Blood Service this Valentine’s Day weekend.

She is on a drive to “pay it forward” by re-cruiting 129 blood do-nors, as a way of giving thanks for the 129 units of blood she received during emergency sur-gery at Royal Columbi-an Hospital on Dec. 7, 2009.

MacNeil, a young wife and mother of two boys, who lives in Aldergrove, survived a near-death experience while de-livering her son Jacob

that day just over six years ago. Jacob was successfully delivered by C-section, however, immediately afterward, MacNeil began hemor-rhaging.

The RCH medical team went into action to staunch the bleeding with medications, pro-

cedures and transfu-sions but her condition kept worsening, result-ing in three cardiac ar-rests on the operating table.

An emergency hyster-ectomy fi nally stopped the bleeding and phy-sicians were able to sta-bilize her. She was put into an induced coma and spent the next 12 days unconscious in the intensive care unit.

After she awoke she spent another 12 days in the hospital in recov-ery and came home on Dec. 30.

“I had to learn to walk again,” she said. “But I am so lucky to be alive.”

During those critical fi ve hours in the op-erating room MacNeil received 129 units of blood, an amount that still surprises her to this day.

“I thought maybe 40 units, but the hospital told me it was 129 units, give or take a couple of units.”

This is the inspiration for her personal pledge to the Canadian Blood Service to recruit 129 blood donors.

She has started a Facebook page called “Amie MacNeil’s Blood Drive — 129 reasons to give” which currently stands at 320 members

The Facebook page has generated a lot of interest and commit-ments from at least 26 people to donate a unit

of blood each at this Saturday’s blood donor clinic in Aldergrove.

“The Aldergrove clin-ic is almost fi lled with appointments, but I’m also campaigning for clinics in Langley and Abbotsford this month and have pledges for those too,” said Mac-Neil.

“And I’ve noticed that a lot of the donors are fi rst time donors; I con-sider it a real victory that I’m raising aware-ness of the importance of donating blood.”

MacNeil is practic-ing what she preach-es, too. She, along with her husband Todd and mother Darlene, kick-started the drive in De-cember by donating a unit of blood each.

MacNeil will also be at this Saturday’s clinic, set for 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Feb. 13 at Aldergrove Secondary school, where she will donate another unit of blood and will stay to be on hand to greet her re-cruits during the day.

The clinic visits Al-dergrove every two months, with the next one set for April 9, but opportunities to donate are more frequent in Langley and Abbots-ford.

Donors who wish to support her campaign should contact Amie via Facebook (or email to [email protected]) and she will help register their ap-pointments at the clinic of their choice.

“It’s such a big num-ber, 129 people, it’s daunting,” said Mac-Neil.

“But if I can convince people how easy it is — it takes under an hour — and how important it is in helping to save lives, it’s worth it.”

Workout to Conquer Cancer



Long-time Langley City resident Shelley Coburn says she will continue to serve as a trustee at the Langley Board of Education if she wins the council byelection.

“There is synergy between the two roles for the benefi t of all of the taxpayers,” Coburn said.

“People may wonder why I may want to ful-fi ll two positions, and this is a fair question.

“It is because it is my passion. My time on the board has helped me realize that I am prepared to dedicate myself full time to serving my communi-ty.”

In her press release announcing her can-didacy, Coburn said many people on City council and the school board have full-time jobs and that she her-self has no other ca-reer.

“I can totally dedicate myself to these two po-sitions.”

She does not believe she is in a potential confl ict.

“No, absolutely not. There are safeguards in place to deal with any potential situations should they ever arise.”

She said her vision is for a “vibrant Langley City, a healthy commu-nity where everyone feels safe, included, and supported. A place where development, business, and the arts are fl ourishing and the local economy is thriv-ing.”

She promised to work hard to make sure seniors are heard and cared for, the

downtown core is re-vitalized, relationships with the business com-munity and partner groups are strong, and that the City continues with improvements to infrastructure and transportation.

“I want a City where we can buy local, eat local, shop local, play local and live local.”

She believes that when it comes to any-thing — homelessness, seniors, transit, devel-opment, infrastructure — “we are all the same taxpayer and the is-sues do not belong to just one level of gov-ernment.”

“They are our issues because we deal with them and we are the ones paying,” Coburn said.

“What are we going to do to make it better? Do we lobby? Do we consult? How do we act because we have got to

do something.”Coburn was born in

Langley and has spent most of her life here.

“My family roots run deep. This is where I choose to raise my two teenaged sons. I am deeply invested in this City.”

She wants her kids to be able to stay in Lang-ley if they choose to, and in order for them to do this “they need options, they need jobs.”

“I know many peo-ple have contributed to bringing us from the place where we start-ed in 1955 to the place we are today and now I want to contribute to the future, to the next generation. I want to play my part in making Langley City the place to be.”

He’s been seen on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live — and most notably — the 2016 Critics’ Choice Awards, and now fans in Langley will have the opportunity to meet Jacob Tremblay in person at the Langley International Film Festival (LIFF).

The nine-year-old Langley actor will be part of a Q&A session on Feb. 21, following the screening of

the fi lm Room at 3:30 p.m. Tremblay won the Best Young Actor Critics’

Choice Award in January for his role as fi ve-year-old Jack in Room, which tells the dramatic story of a mother and son’s escape from captivity.

Tickets are available online at www.langley schooldistrictfoundation.com or by contacting Su-san Cairns at [email protected] or 604-532-1464.

LIFF runs Feb. 19-21 at the Chief Sepass Theatre (9096 Trattle St.)

LIFF offers Q&A with Jacob Tremblay


Love is more than a valentineI was sitting in a restaurant

having lunch and a lady came in, guiding her walker to the al-cove. Maybe she was on the oth-er side of 75, but her smile was quite a few years younger.

As she parked her walker at the base of the stairs the wait-ress asked her, “Is your friend joining you today?”

“Yes,” she replied, “He should be along shortly.”

She climbed carefully up the six stairs and chose the booth by the window, enjoying the sunshine. Not long after, an elderly gentleman came in, walking slowly with the aid of a cane.

He deftly negotiated the transition from the tile to the carpet and asked the waitress, “Is she here yet?” The waitress acknowledged that she was and he came to the bottom of the stairs.

With one hand on the rail and the other on the cane, he took the steps one at a time and stopped at the top to catch his breath by my booth. He nod-ded at me and I said, “She’s making you work today; she’s way over on the other side.”

He took his cap off and smiled and replied, “No matter, I’d walk 10 miles to

sit beside that lady.” My heart skipped a beat as

he walked towards her, a little more life in his step. There it was, an unabashed declaration of love boldly put out there for all to see.

•••I was attending a forum on

physician-assisted death and the room was full of people waiting to offer or hear opin-ions on this controversial top-

ic. Many medical professionals and people of Christian values took a turn at the microphone.

Then the moderator called for the next speaker and a man rose and helped his wife to her feet. They walked slowly to the podium and he steadied her in place. “This is my wife of over 50 years,” he began. “She has dementia and she needs me. She is my wife and I need her. No matter the circumstanc-es we have been dealt, we would never consider anyone ending our lives or re-lationship before the time intended for us.”

The room was silent as they walked slowly but proudly back to their seats.

The applause broke out after the crowd realized the amazing declara-

tion of love they had just witnessed.•••

The fi refi ghter’s heart rate came slowly back to normal after he realized how close the explosion had come to causing serious injury or death. As the blaze was being brought under control, he walked to the back of the pumper and as he set his helmet on the tail-board he noticed his lady across the closed street standing in the crowd be-tween the parked cars.

He walked toward her and she ducked under the yellow tape and came to meet him.

They embraced but never said a word. She held tight oblivious to the soot and grime from his coat smudging her sweater.

“I have to go back to work. I love you.” “I know,” she replied. “I love you, too.” That embrace would hang there, fro-

zen in time, never to be forgotten.Love is not just candies, cards and

fl owers. It’s moments and memories and boldness and not caring who is watching or listening when it’s time to dance or kiss or cry or simply say, “I love you.”

Don’t miss that magic moment. It will last forever. At least that’s what McGregor says.

In the video, the dog is shaking with fear.It has just been rescued from an alleged puppy

mill.People at the SPCA have trimmed off the fi lthy,

matted fur and bathed it.The dog is safe, but it doesn’t know it.And it starts to back away from the camera

lens, terrifi ed.It was one of the 66 dogs seized from a Langley

location earlier this month by the SPCA.The animal protection agency took away 32

adult dogs and 34 puppies on Feb. 4, including Old English sheepdogs, Bernese mountain dogs, soft-coated Wheaten terriers, poodles and Portu-guese water dogs.

The starving dogs were living in small, stacked crates and cages, in dark, unheated buildings.

They had serious medical and psychological issues including broken bones, missing ears and eyes, infections and abscesses, dental disease, se-vere matting and overgrown nails.

None will be available for adoption right away, the SPCA has warned.

And when the rescued dogs do fi nd homes, we can expect that they will need especially skilled and understanding owners.

Because while the physical scars can heal, the psychological damage will take a lot longer.

Long after they have been rescued and removed to new, loving homes, abused dogs can still suffer extreme anxiety, terrifi ed at strangers or cringing at a raised voice or hand.

People who work with emotionally wounded dogs will tell you that helping them recover from their ordeal takes a very long time and lots of love and patience.

And that it is very much worth the effort.

A long, hard road ahead for rescued dogs

Editor: Re: Township tax increase set at nearly four per cent (The Times, Feb. 3).

Is this council out of their collective mind?The Canadian and B.C. economies are still in shambles

and these elected offi cials are so out of touch with reality that they have the unmitigated gall to raise our property taxes by well over three times the cost of living increase we got on our provincial and federal pensions (1.2 per cent).

Maybe they missed the BC Assessment average increase for Langley Township of around eight per cent?

Or maybe they are so out of touch with their constituents that they think we won’t object?

It’s time to let these elitists know, enough is enough.I’ve been a Township resident 40 years, and I’m sick and

fed up.WIM BROMLEY,

Editor: I have been a Langley City resident for over 35 years and my husband, Dave Hall, was a three-term City Councillor until his recent passing.

Nathan Pachal is the best candi-date to fulfi ll the vacant council role my husband left.

As a resident, I appreciate that Mr. Pachal is also a resident, and since

2007 has served on various Langley City committees.

His contributions to the City’s land use and transportation issues show his ability to research and attack problems from multiple angles.

His blog demonstrates his voice is independent, progressive and com-munity-driven.

Unlike other candidates, Pachal is

a multiple issue candidate. His plans relating to safety, health and the downtown core display his work rate and ingenuity.

On Feb. 27, I will be voting for Na-than Pachal and I ask that your read-ers vote Pachal, too.

ELLEN HALL,

LANGLEY CITY

Editor: All citizens will greatly benefi t by electing Ki-ernan Hillan in the Langley City byelection on Saturday, Feb. 27.

Kiernan — an energetic, longtime resident of Langley — has municipal service experience, can make sound decisions, and inspire a spirit of community service.

His leadership skills will improve community safety, transportation, and infrastructure renewal.

On City Council he will create teamwork and a positive relationship with all citizens of Langley.

We, along with Marlene Grinnell, a former respected Mayor of Langley City and Jim McGregor, a retired, re-spected Langley City fi re chief, enthusiastically support Kiernan.

He will make Langley City a beautiful place, a place we can be proud to live and work in.

A vote for Kiernan Hillan is a vote to improve our City. PAUL AND DEANNA MACDONALD,

LANGLEY CITY

Editor: On Feb. 6 a parent’s worst nightmare happened. Our family’s two-and-a-half-year-old girl went missing.

Of course, the fi rst thing we did was to search the property, but soon it was clear that we needed more help.

It was then that we called 911. While talking with the operator, we heard sirens. “Are those si-rens coming for us?” we asked.

We were shocked, we couldn’t believe how fast the police ar-rived. Of course, all of us were eager to jump in and help in any way we could.

The police told us to show them the property, and then we left it up to them.

Neighbours, people walking by, church family, and people that stopped while driving, all helped to look along the road, in the ditches and on neighbouring properties.

They told us it would be best to just stay in the house, so they could do their thing. Soon search and rescue was here, then three fi re trucks arrived. On top of that, were maybe eight to 10 police cruisers.

It was absolutely incredible, the teamwork and promptness of their arrival and methods. A vic-tim services offi cer came quick-ly, she was like a counsellor for us. Already we had four of our church family at our house, com-

forting us, and cooking for the kids. She really didn’t have much to do with the others there, but her presence and professional, yet caring attitude was greatly appreciated.

Then two offi cers came in and took statements from everyone. They were so patient, and kind, and were so good with inter-viewing the younger kids, asking them in ways that their answers would actually be of help. Sadly, at around 8 p.m. the emergency crew found her little body at the bottom of our pond.

We know her spirit is in heaven with Jesus, and only her body is left here on Earth. We look for-ward to seeing her again.

The purpose of this letter, is to thank the following people:

The emergency responders who showed up so quickly for doing such a hard job, working in the dark, and for fi nding her body. If we never had any answers, it would haunt us for the rest of our lives.

The neighbours, and drivers who took time out of their lives to search for our little girl, call-ing her name and looking in the ditches, neighbours’ properties, and the streets.

The counsellor, for coming to help us, talk to us, cry with us, and give the kids little toys.

The church family, for praying so hard, and helping out in driv-

ing, cooking, and babysitting.The two detectives for coming

to the hospital. It was so nice to see familiar faces there.

Our pastor for his continued support, and practical gifts.

The community, for all the food, letters, emails, messages, and prayers.

All the support has been amaz-ing. Thank you all so much, and we won’t forget your kindness to us.

May we as a community, come together when others are hurt-ing, to aid in the comfort, as you have done for us. God bless and thank you.

JOHNSON FAMILY,

ALDERGROVE

Editor: Feb. 5 marked a kick in the chops to the residents of downtown Langley, as TD Canada Trust moved their branch to the Willowbrook loca-tion.

I guess their billion dollar profi ts can’t handle cashing checks for seniors and

disabled residents who won’t be able to make it to Willowbrook for banking services. So it’s tough luck, guys.

Scotiabank is the only option left for those in central Langley with limited transportation options.

I don’t know that I have heard a peep

of concern about it from any politicians at any level around here.

Once again the big banks show their true colours and citizens without a voice are abandoned.

Tourism Langley is calling 2015 a “banner year” that saw the number of visitors rise 14 per cent from 2014.

“This is our strongest year yet,” Tourism Langley executive director Deborah Kulchiski told the Times.

The agency was expecting an improvement, but not that big.

“We certainly were very pleas-antly surprised.”

Kulchiski said while it will be another month before the fi nal 2015 fi gures are in, the prelim-inary numbers show last year was the best Tourism Langley has seen since it began operat-ing.

The available stats suggest the Langleys outperformed oth-er communities in B.C. (which have been reporting increas-es ranging from two to 12 per cent).

Kulchiski said the local rise was the result of a combina-tion of factors, starting with the decline of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. currency. The fall of our dollar is encouraging Americans to travel north and Canadians to stay in their own country, with British Colum-

bians playing tourist in their home province and people from Alberta heading west instead of south for their vacations.

The Langleys have also ben-efi ted by providing accom-modation to people attending Vancouver events who can’t fi nd reasonably-priced places to stay in the pricey downtown

core. As well, both Langleys have been adding attractions and events that are drawing more people, Kulchiski said.

For example, the Fort Langley historical site reported a 14 per cent increase in visits in 2015.

Tourism Langley is forecast-ing a “another strong year” for 2016.

The soon-to-open Timms Communi-ty Centre will have new, state-of-the-art fi tness equipment thanks to $175,000 in donations to Langley City by families and business leaders in

the community.“We’ve seen such

an extraordinary out-reach from families and businesses wish-ing to support the centre,” Mayor Ted Schaffer said.

“This demonstrates

the belief that the community has in our programs.”

All donors will be formally recognized on the centre’s wall of sponsors, and gold and silver sponsors have name recogni-

tion rights to various multi-purpose rooms in the facility.

Gold sponsors are the Jeffery family and the Province of British Columbia.

Silver sponsors are the Degemann fami-ly, the Paolella family, the Redekop family, the Madsen family, the Dams family and the Wesik family,

Bronze sponsors are OpenRoad Auto Group Limited, Ipex Inc., and Bernard and Barbara Kerr.

“What we are build-ing today is a healthy future for our commu-nity,” Schaffer said.

“Our vision for the new Timms Centre goes beyond a fi tness facility and is focused on creating opportu-nities for everyone to lead a healthy life-style.”

The new Timms Centre, with a gym-nasium, running/walking track, weight room, spin room, games room and mul-tipurpose rooms will have its grand open-ing Feb. 24 between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m.

Langley City’s certi-fi ed fi tness staff be on hand to provide train-ing tips and guidance.

Sponsors helping to equip new Timms Community Centre

Very good year for tourismThe Langleys drew more visitors in 2015 than in any previous year

Visitors explore Fort Langley National Historic Site. The old fort is one of Langley’s most popular spots for tourists to visit. Last year, more people visited Langley than in any previous year since Tourism Lang-ley began operating.

Surge in B.C.’s urban housing starts

Housing starts in B.C.’s urban municipalities of more than 10,000 people ended 2015 with a jump of 26 per cent in December, accord-ing to the latest Statistics Canada fi gures.

B.C.’s increase was mostly in multi-family developments. Single

detached housing starts were up only 3.5 per cent.

B.C.’s housing surge went against the national trend, with housing starts down in seven provinces. Only B.C., Quebec and Manitoba saw growth in December, com-pared to a year earlier.

Housing starts dropped 39 per cent in Ontario and 41 per cent in Alberta, where the oil price slump has hit the economy hard.

A local restaurateur has won the title of BC Sommelier of the Year.

Alistair Veen, 37, co-owner of Tap Restau-rant in South Surrey, gained the prestigious accolade — recognition of his expertise in serving wines and teaming them with different menus — in a grueling service exam last week before an expert panel at the Captain’s Din-ing Room at Rogers Arena.

But Veen, who was born and raised in Langley, noted laughingly he’s still not sure how many people outside the wine and restaurant business know what a sommelier is.

“You could say I’m a wine-nerd, or a wine-guru,” he said with typical self-deprecating humour.

He is proud, however, that, as he puts it, “the hardware is coming out to South Surrey” — even though he’s not sure yet whether ‘the hardware’ will end up being a trophy or a plaque to display at his premises, at 15350 34 Ave.

He admits he was con-

sidered the dark horse go-ing into the annual compe-tition, presented by the BC chapter of the Canadian Association of Professional Sommeliers and sponsored by the Vancouver Interna-tional Wine Festival.

In the 15 years since the contest was established, he said, the title has never gone outside Vancouver.

Indeed, Vancouver media reporting the event were seemingly astonished that anyone from South of the Fraser had the expertise and the fl air to ace the competition — quite apart from keeping his cool and his sense of humour through the tense pro-ceedings, which involved a written theory exam and a practical service test, including decanting both white and red wines.

“I was determined to treat it as a learning experience,” Veen said of his entry into the fi eld of 10 competitors, noting the irony is that his fellow contestants — including two that accompanied him into the fi nal round, Sean Nelson of Vij’s Restaurant and Shane Taylor of CinCin Ristorante — are far from

strangers.“They’re all close

friends of mine. We all get together regularly to discuss wines, we study together. We all know each other’s strengths and weaknesses and any single one of us could have taken the title. In fact, I really thought I was not the one who was going to be having this conversation.”

Veen was once part of the Vancouver restaurant scene, himself, in a career that fi rst began with an unglamourous position as part-time dishwasher at a Murrayville pub when he was 15.

The family man (he and his wife, Aron, events director for Tap, have a year-old son, Alex) joined Tap as chef four months after it opened 10 years ago.

With current partner Les Pereira, Veen — who bought out majority partner Curtis Moyen in 2010 — has continued to grow the business as a “premier dining room” blending modern and classic cuisine.

Veen believes that being a chef gave him a distinct

advantage in the food and wine pairing component of the contest.

“I have the edge from the sheer amount of wine and food pairings I’ve done around the world — when asked to do that in front of an audience it was like pulling on my socks,” he said. “I’m a chef fi rst and foremost, but once I started really appreciating what was involved in running a restaurant, I realized it was a huge area

(to explore). When I turned 27, I decided I was going to focus on wine education.”

While he has appreciated the expressions of support that have fl ooded in since his win, Veen said he hasn’t “fully absorbed what the ramifi cations of the award will be” for Tap.

It’s certainly focused Vancouver attention on the venue, he acknowl-edged, though he’s not expecting a heavy infl ux of trade from the city.

“It’s a long way to come, through a tunnel and across two bridges.” he said.

“What I’m hoping is that it will make people really interested in staying put in South Surrey, rather than feeling they have to travel through the tunnel and over the bridges to Vancou-ver — to have the feeling that, holy smoke, we’ve got the top sommelier in B.C. right here in our own backyard.”

Call him ‘wine guru’

A philanthropic fashion line that takes aim at bullying is be-coming a sensation.

The “Accept Me” logo, which adorns cloth-ing and accessories, started as a kernel in Kim Radons’s mind last summer on her Aldergrove farm.

It has since grown to take the Grammy Awards stage in Los Angeles.

“I started this brand because I fi rmly believe we should all be accepted for ‘who I am, how I look, whom I love, and what I believe,’” said founder Kim Radons.

“Individually, we desire acceptance, yet we are falling short in the reciprocation department.”

She had been deal-ing with some “pro-foundly painful” issues around her work as a children’s advocate, “and then at the end of June, it hit me, we need one platform — acceptance — and it takes care of all of that bullying, racism, and negativity in the world.”

Radons had the idea for a logo and called on an artist friend in Quebec, Colleen Reich, to come up with the fi nal logo design. It depicts a person breaking through the barriers of marginal-ization.

“There’s a bit of nostalgia with a peace sign in the design, along with breaking through the barriers.”

The T-shirts, sterling

silver necklaces and other jewelry items are currently only avail-able online, although Radons is working on getting them into stores as well.

To that end, she got a big break when the upcoming 58th annual Grammy Awards ac-cepted her bid to have the Accept Me prod-ucts included in their swag bags.

“I thought it was a

long shot but I wrote the smallest pitch to the Grammy Awards and got the quickest response. Within 15 minutes they called me and said they loved the message.”

Support of Accept Me branded merchandise enables the organiza-tion to provide funds to select charities that share their primary goal of empowering positive growth in the lives of at risk youth.

Accept Me supports the work of two or-ganizations, Bullying Ends Here and Boys Club Network.

“I found Bullying Ends Here when I was looking for help groups. Its founder, Tad, is a police offi cer who lectures at high schools and I listened to him talk to Grades 9-10 at a West Vancou-ver school. We were all spellbound,” said Radons.

Radons and hus-band, Roy, have been involved with Boys Club Network for the past four years, and every summer the couple hosts 75 youths from BCN at their farm for activities and a wiener roast.

“For those of us who grew up on farms it may not seem any-thing special, but for these kids it’s their very fi rst exposure to what a farm is.”

The websites are bul-lyingendshere.ca and boysclubnetwork.com.

“Acceptance is not just something that happens; it is a lifelong choice that requires one to be consistent and con-stant in their practice of compassion and empathy. Together we can share this simple yet powerful message. It’s a movement, a small adjustment, and it starts with you,” said Radons.

“Visit our ‘Friends’ page to learn more about the charities we love.”

Ninety Grade 6 students from Yorkson Creek Middle School got their feet wet in Yorkson Creek on Monday, Jan. 25 as an introduction to a project which will address water quality in Langley.

The General Motors Global Rivers Environmental Education Network (GM GREEN), encourages a community-wide approach to help youth better understand their impact on local watersheds.

Employees from General Motors Langley Parts Distribution Centre, Langley Environmental Partners Society (LEPS) and Earth Force help young people conduct water quality testing in local streams and develop a sustainable action plan addressing water quality issues in Langley.

“It’s critical that today’s youth are connected to their local watersheds

and the environment,” said Sarah Atherton, Education Program Coordinator at LEPS.

“We work closely with School District 35 students to build that connection and help young people see the role they can play in protecting and adapting the environment for the next generation.”

This year the program expands from Yorkson Creek Middle School to HD Stafford Middle School.

“Access to clean water is essential to all communities, and this program encourages students to be leaders in advancing water quality and conservation,” said Adria MacKenzie, of GM corporate communications.

The government of B.C. is contributing $23,773 toward the Langley Environmental Partners Society so two people can receive

26 weeks of work experience in sustainable agriculture and watershed stewardship.

“This is a terrifi c job creation partnership that is giving two people valuable work experience in environmental stewardship in their community, while developing programs for middle school students,” said Mary Polak, B.C.’s environment minister and MLA for Langley.

“This project will also benefi t the community.”

GM GREEN celebrated its 25th anniversary last year.

It is the longest-running conservation education program by any automaker.

Langley gyms join virtual club In a fi tness market

dominated by large chains, 11 Lower Main-land independent gyms have joined together to offer a new fi tness ini-tiative to the public.

Virtual Gym Club, featuring Fitness Chal-lenge (19889 96 Ave.) and Revolution MMA (20460 Langley Bypass) in Langley, is a fl exible gym membership to make exercising pos-sible for the busiest of individuals.

“With the rise of gym chains in the area, competition was only growing for the inde-pendent gyms,” said Riley Abreo, founder of Virtual Gym Club.

“By working together, independent gyms can take back some of the market while provid-

ing a new alternative for the public to get healthy.”

The online member-ship gives access to any independent gym in the network, and gym time can be booked with just a few clicks on a smart phone.

There are also no hid-den fees, or long term contracts, Abreo said.

“Too many times, these big corporations and businesses use pushy sales techniques and long term con-tracts to lock members in,” said Abreo.

“Gym access should be convenient and af-fordable for any willing participant.”

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

“One of the simplest reasons for a subject to sale is that it gives the family or

individual the chance to move out of their old house and into their new one without

the need to rent elsewhere.”

It’s a common question that can feel like a housing market merry-go-round: do you sell your home before you buy, or do you buy your new home before you sell?January was the hottest month on record – at least for the real estate market. According to the Fraser Val-ley Real Estate Board, sales were up a whopping 57 percent over January 2015, and while it can be a lucrative opportunity as a seller, it leaves many buyers scrambling to fi nd a suitable home. Louise McKnight, Associate Broker/Partner at Bay Realty Ltd further explains how low inventory and a low Canadian dollar are contributing to a sellers’ market. Th e low dollar, she says, is motivating the Chinese investor to purchase real estate, while multiple off ers has become commonplace. In a balanced market or a “buyers’ market” a subject to sale agreement is fairly common practise. Th is clause allows buyers to purchase their new home, subject to their cur-rent home selling by a certain date. However, in a “sellers’ market,” which the market is currently con-sidered, it would be rare to have a subject to sale accepted.Th at’s because, as McKnight ex-plains, many sellers are presented with multiple off ers on their home and will opt for the sure sale rather than a subject sale.

“[Th e market] is very, very, active, almost to the overheated category,” says Michael Trites, Managing Bro-ker/Sales Associate at Royal LePage Northstar Realty. “Selling over the listed price is more the norm rather than the exception, and at prices that are sometimes diffi cult to rationalize.”Matt Morrow, Realtor at RE/MAX 2000 Realty, agrees. “I've been a realtor for 10 years and although I've been through some crazy markets, I haven't experi-enced anything quite like this,” he says. “Th e market is being fuelled by an all time low level of invento-ry, low interest rates, and lots of buyers. Prices of homes have increased nearly $10,000 a week for the past 2-3 months.”He adds that sellers won’t consider a subject to sale off er and in most cases you won't stand a chance hav-ing any conditions in your off er. Th at goes for fi nancing and/or inspections too. “If there's 10 off ers on a home, more than half will be free of all condi-tions these days, and deposits are being handed over at the time of the off er,” says Morrow. “An awkward spot to be in as a buyer, but plenty of buyers are willing to off er way over asking price with no conditions and, of course as a seller, you want the best off er.”One of the simplest reasons for a

subject to sale is that it gives the family or individual the chance to move out of their old house and into their new one without the need to rent elsewhere.If buyers fi nd themselves without the subject to sale option, the question

remains: do you rent back from the new owners of your home until you fi nd something? “Th at is happening quite regularly [and] it seems to be a win-win if done properly,” says Trites. “It can be a term of the Con-tract of Purchase and Sale, or a separate rental agree-ment can be prepared.”As for what to do with all of your “stuff ,” while you make the move? McK-

night says it’s a great opportunity to declutter and to use moving as an opportunity to take a critical look at your home decor and personal items. If a signifi cant “decluttering” is needed, consider renting a storage unit or a storage pod that can be delivered to your home, self packed, and taken away. “Try not to store items that you will not use at your new home,” she says. “Th is may be the perfect time for a garage sale!”As for fi nal advice for people in the situation of renting while they look to buy, Trites recommends reviewing the rental agreement before signing to be sure it’s a month-to-month agreement and not a lease.

“Leases most likely will contain penalties for early termination, whereas month-to-month tenancies require one rental period’s notice to terminate,” he says, It’s a very tough market to be a buyer in, which is why Morrow’s fi nal piece

of advice is to consider lightening your “needs list” and just get back into the market. “[Maintain] constant communica-tion with your Realtor,” he says, “and be ready to jump both feet in.”

It was a great way to wrap up a season.

The Langley Thunder took the Subway British Columbia Lacrosse Association (BCLA) fi eld lacrosse provincial championships U18 Tier 1 gold medal on Monday (Feb. 8). They beat the Coquitlam Adanacs 11-9 in afternoon action at Willoughby Community Park.

The Thunder’s Connor McNeill was named MVP.

McNeill also received a Warrior Sports Canada Fair Play award, as did Thunder coach Bryan Poole.

Poole, who has been coaching with his brother Ian for about seven years, was confi dent going

into the championships.“I felt that it’s a very competitive

league, but the way we had played all season, I knew that we had just as good an opportunity to take home a gold medal as any of the other teams” Poole said.

“Our guys just had to be ready.”Goalie Levi Gallant was

instrumental in the win, Poole said.

“Our goalie had has a good run his whole career. We’re just very fortunate to have someone like that.”

The Thunder won or tied every game they played en route to the win, beginning Friday against Coquitlam, winning 12-8. Ryan Martel was named MVP.

The players posted two wins on Saturday, beating New West 7-4 (Quinn McKitrick was named MVP) and Ridge Meadows 9-2 (Caleb Pearson named MVP).

On Sunday, Delta held the

Langley team to a 7-7 tie (Levi Gallant MVP), which led to the Monday fi nal and victory.

“It’s always nice winning the

last game of the season,” Poole said.

Forty-fi ve teams from Vancouver Island, Lower Mainland, Interior

and the North competed in the four-day event.

Members of the Thunder: Ryan Alcos, Quinn Beavis, Josh Brunsch, Matthew Brunsch, McKenzie Day, Colin Gormley, Trevor Hawley, Dylan Kaminsky, Everett Kellner, Nathaniel Kozevnikov, Jordan Lewis, Ryan Martel, Nathan McKeigan, Quinn McKitrick, Connor McNeill, Chase Moore, Kyle Olsen, Caleb Pearson, Cole Radke, Cal Slade, Brenden Symons, Torin VanRheenan, Craig Whitton, Levi Gallant and Brandon Goff.

Coaches: Bryan Poole and Ian Poole.

The Langley Rivermen were unable to overcome an early scoring lead by the Chilliwack Chiefs Monday (Feb. 8).

The Rivermen hosted the Chiefs at a special Family Day game at the Langley Events Centre.

Coming into the contest, the Chiefs led the season series 4-2.

Bo Didur started in net for the Rivermen, while Aiden Pelino countered for the Chiefs.

The Chiefs opened up the scoring early on at the 1:28 mark with a goal from Darien Craighead.

During four-on-four play, Chilliwack doubled their lead

thanks to Jordan Kawaguchi at 12:50.

Kawaguchi then scored a power play goal with 34 seconds remaining to make it

3-0. The Chiefs took their three-goal lead into

the second period and led the shot count 9-3.

In the second Kawaguchi capped off the hat trick, scoring the

only goal of the period on a Chiefs

power play to extend the lead to 4-0 after 40

minutes.With under eight minutes to

play, Zac Masson would break Pelino’s shutout as he put away his own rebound on a breakaway.

For Masson, it was an

unassisted goal and his eighth of the season.

At 18:06, Masson scored his second of the period on the power play to cut the Chiefs’ lead to a pair of goals.

Matthew Graham and Ryan Barrow had the assists.

However, Kawaguchi sealed the game, scoring into the empty net for his fourth of the afternoon to make it a 5-2 fi nal.

Jordan Kawaguchi was the difference maker in the game, scoring four out of Chilliwack’s fi ve on the day.

The Rivermen remain in third place in the Mainland Division.

Catch them in action at their next home game on Feb. 21 at 3 p.m., against the Victoria Grizzlies.

Tickets are available online at www.langleyrivermen.com.

It was a brief retire-ment.

Less than a year after he left the game, goal-tender Tyler Richards has returned to sign a one-year contract with the Vancouver Stealth.

“I am so thankful for this opportunity from ownership and the coaching staff to allow me to come back to the team out of retire-ment,” Richards said.

“I am really excited and can’t wait to run out on the fl oor with my teammates again.”

Richards returns to the franchise after re-tiring from lacrosse last May and will be entering his eighth season in the National Lacrosse League (NLL), all of which have been with the Stealth.

He appeared in 14 games with Vancouver during the 2015 season and had a 4-9 record along with a 14.57 goals

against average and a .739 save percentage.

The Coquitlam na-tive was drafted in the fourth round (46th overall) by the Stealth in 2007.

His 33 regular season wins places him sec-ond in franchise histo-ry and in 2014 he sur-passed Rob Blasdell for most saves (2,576).

He’s also the fran-chise leader in playoff wins with eight.

In 2015, Richards became just the 13th goaltender in league history to record 3,000 career regular season saves.

On Feb. 28, 2015 he also scored his fi rst career NLL goal, mark-ing the fi rst time since 2009 that a goaltender scored in the NLL.

“My body feels great and hopefully it doesn’t take too long for me to shake some of the rust off,” Richards said.

Stealth Head Coach Dan Perreault is look-ing forward to having a familiar face back in the dressing room.

“I have known Tyler for a long time and he is a guy that is going to help this team in many areas, on and off the fl oor. He has had some great years in this organization and

seems very motivat-ed to come back and compete hard with his teammates,” said Per-reault.

With the addition of Richards, the Stealth have released goalten-der Chris Levis.

The team’s next home game is Feb. 20 against the Calgary Roughnecks at 7 p.m.

Safety Tip:

‘‘The comfort of 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS sport seats, a rumbling 6.2-litre, V8 and the glory of air conditioning eliminates the discomfort of the Sunshine State’s clammy atmosphere!’’Alexandra Straub

Orlando, FL. – Stepping into the humidity of Southern Florida’s air can feel like a sudden slap to the face. Within moments of leaving the hotel, the fresh and clean sensation of a good night’s sleep and a rejuvenating shower can be wiped away, only to be replaced by that sticky feeling we try to avoid.Soon after, the comfort of 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS sport seats, a rumbling 6.2-litre, V8 and the glory of air conditioning eliminates the discom-fort of the Sunshine State’s clammy atmosphere.Getting this vehicle was the luck of the draw. Here’s why.Chevrolet created a not-so-conven-tional drive program for the launch of their iconic, sixth-generation muscle car. Drivers picked keys out of a bag to make it fair for everyone, meaning, there weren’t enough of any one type of car, whether it was a V6 or V8, man-ual or automatic transmission.All I wanted was a manual. Didn’t matter the engine size. I ended up with a six-speed manual Camaro SS. Divine.Instead of the conventional turn-by-turn drive route, we were challenged to find our own way to our final destination. My outbound flight would be from New Orleans. I had 36 hours to get there.Even though I was flying without a co-pilot, I teamed up with newfound friends from techradar.

com (Matt and Max) in another Camaro. Initially, the desire was to visit the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum in Birmingham, Alabama was the first destination. Though, a late start and upwards of 1,000 kilometres to drive in less than eight hours would be difficult. Nevertheless, we set off north to-wards Birmingham. We would stop along the way to check out the “Live Baby Gators” at the Florida Citrus Centres. We drove along interstate 10 heading west with weeping willows swaying overhead. We stopped at the Waffle House – a southern US dining staple – for some less than healthy sustenance. Our marathon drive continued along stretches of highway where huge billboards were the only scenery. When we needed to communicate, we could use the

Camaro’s Apple CarPlay to send messages to each other. Handsfree, of course.The Driver Mode Selector allowed me to swap between Sport, Tour and Snow/Ice (and also Track with SS.) These drive modes instantly tailor up to eight different vehicle characteristics. The Tour mode would seem to be a natural fit for the long drive, but I had it in Sport and loved every second.

Eventually, we pulled into John’s City Diner in Birmingham for a late dinner of some deep-fried goodness. Over dinner, we debated the next step: we could stay in Birmingham or push forward to Jackson, Mississippi. Staying in Alabama would make for a longer journey the next day.We pushed on and when I shut her down at that chosen destination I had clocked 1,291 kilome-tres (807 miles). Surprisingly, after over 12 hours behind the wheel, my back wasn’t aching as much as I had expected. The sport seats proved to be firm yet flexible enough to still be comfortable and keep me in place.Even with the chassis 28 percent stiffer, the ride isn’t bone-jarring, not for me at least. Though, don’t expect it to take road imperfections ginger-ly. It is a performance vehicle after all so running a tight ship is mandatory. Besides, there aren’t 455 horses under the hood without reason. My voice had tired from singing at the top of my lungs and talking on the phone – I was driving alone, after all.The desire to venture along this section of the program that spanned over the 48 contiguous states was purely personal. I’d never driven in this part of the United States – with the exception of Florida – and wanted to experience what it had to offer. The scenery wasn’t quite as epic as the sultry waves of Florida’s coastline, and all in all, it was quite barren, but there was still joy in the journey.From downtown Jackson, Mississippi, we contin-ued our last leg of the trip towards New Orleans, Louisiana. The total count of states we had driven

through four states, adding 1,600 kilometres to the odometer (actually the US-spec car counted in miles!) When I stepped out of the car in New Orleans, a familiar humidity greeted me. I embraced it with open arms, stretched and thought about how my next trip to this part of the U.S. would include the Barber Motorsports Museum, more deep dried food and an evening on Bourbon Street. And, I hope another 2016 Camaro SS with a manual transmission.The 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS with the six-speed manual has a starting MSRP of $42,150 (excluding destination charges, fees and applicable taxes.)

“ Patrick Swayze’s character Johnny Castle drove one of the most iconic American cars of all time in Dirty Dancing – the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-door hardtop.’’John Mayhead

For those of us who also love automobiles, the best romantic films are those that feature an interesting car or two. Pretty Woman – 1989 Lotus Esprit SERichard Gere’s high-flying businessman Edward was bound to own an exotic “foreign” classic, but when both Ferrari and Porsche declined to be associated with a film linked to prostitution, Lotus stepped in. The gamble paid off and sales of the Esprit (actually a modified 1990 model SE). Notting Hill – 1967 Park Royal AEC Routemaster BusOK, so it’s not exactly a star in the film, but we love the old Route-master, brought into service in 1967 by London Transport, and now available for weddings and special events!

I want to take the time to thank you for the fantastic new Rogue I now drive and LOVE! I like most people dread the thought of coming to a car dealership and being cornered into a something I’m not interested in. However that was far from the case when working with Rena at Jonker Nissan. From the follow-up email to my initial inquiry she was professional and listened to what was interested in. She provided me with several different options with various different price points being sure to point out the different benefits of each option. She was delightful to work with; I didn’t expect to purchase a new vehicle that day but Rena instilled confidence in your organization and the vehicle I wanted so I was very comfortable making that decision immediately and I have not suffered buyer’s remorse on that decision, quite the opposite...I love the new Rogue! Rebekah Crowley

Over the last year, as we prepared to transition to retirement, we visited most automotive dealers in the Surrey/Langley/White Rock area in search of the right combination of vehicles that would best serve us. In the spring, we had the good fortune to meet with Les Flewelling from Jonker Nissan. Les presented us with a knowledgeable, straight forward and honest approach. Les quickly gained our trust. In May we took possession of our 2015 Nissan Murano and in September a 2015 Nissan Micra. Between our two purchases, Les also sold one of our children a previously owned Nissan. In retrospect, there is absolutely no doubt that Les and the Jonker Nissan team that supports him was the right choice for us and our family. We have great confidence in recommending Jonker Nissan to others. John

We bought a Nissan Juke and had a wonderful buying experience at Jonkers. Our salesman Mr. Vonn Chan is not pushy and very knowledgeable. We shopped around and Vonn gave us the best deal! Aileen Mendozae

Rena was amazing! She knew all the answers to the many questions… We ended up with the Pathfinder and because she was so thorough we didn’t have any questions at the end. Rena made us feel that our business really mattered to her. We didn’t feel like just another sale which is so nice. This is our 3rd Nissan and we know why! Lisae

We were looking to buy a sedan, we called several dealers including Jonker Nissan. The salesman on the phone was very friendly and polite. We live in Abbotsford but because of how nice Vonn was on the phone we decided to go see him the next day. We were more impressed with his professionalism and how he took care of us, so we bought a brand new Sentra from him. Thank you so much Vonn. Mr. & Mrs. Gill

Rena was fantastic and made it feel like a family environment which allowed us to make a confident as well as educated decision in our first family vehicle. Jesse

Dirty Dancing – 1957 Chevrolet Bel AirPatrick Swayze’s charac-ter Johnny Castle drove one of the most iconic American cars of all time in Dirty Dancing – the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-door hardtop.Love Actually – 1992 Saab 900 XSColin Firth’s character Jamie famously learned Portuguese in order to woo his housekeeper, but we all know it was his Saab 900 that really attracted Aurelia, played by Lucia Moniz. The Love Bug – 1963 Volkswagen BeetleWith his big personal-ity and amazing speed, Herbie cemented the VW Beetle as an iconic car. Ironically, Volk-swagen did not support Disney’s use of the car, and as a result, all VW badges and logos were removed. The Notebook – 1946 Hudson CommodoreThrough the tears, you may be able to spot the 1946 Hudson Commo-dore Eight Club Coupe driven by Rachel McAd-ams’ character. Bridget Jones’s Diary – 1969 Mercedes-Benz 280SE ConvertibleHugh Grant’s smooth-talking Daniel Cleaver had the coolest car. His 1969 Mercedes-Benz 280SE Convertible in blue has the 2778cc inline-6 M130 engine and is an earlier “high grille” car.True Romance – 1988 Porsche 911 Flachbau Cabriolet.The white Porsche 911 Flachbau (Flat Nose) cabriolet was perfectly cast – it was ostenta-tious, noisy and flashy, matching Elliott Blitzer’s character as a movie executive and aspiring actor.John Mayhead writes for Hagerty Insurance. Hagerty is the world’s leading specialist provid-er of classic car and boat insurance. Learn more at hagerty.ca.

McRAEJames William

Jim passed away peacefully on January 11, 2016 in Langley, BC. He was born in Ft. McLeod, AB on May 22, 1928. The family migrated to the Lower Mainland shortly after, where Jim resided for the remainder of his life. He is predeceased by his parents, James Ewen and Erna Angela McRae, sister, Alix McRae Rob-inson and niece, Shelley Corinne Walker. He is survived by nieces, Carol Leigh Robinson and Teresa Gail Robinson and

nephew, Stephen Glen Robinson. Jim developed a love for both air-planes and fast cars early in his life. He was a long standing mem-ber of the Sports Car Club of BC going back to the late 1950’s. He was well known at both Westwood “Mile High” Motorsports Park and then later at the Mission “Rivers Edge” Raceway. Jim was also a founding member of the Motorsport Emergency Turnworkers As-soc which has promoted safety in BC Motorsports for over 40 years. Jim fi nally realized his dream of owning an airplane when he pur-chased his Aeronca Champ in the 1970’s and when he was not out chasing race cars he would be seen fl ying the skies far and wide even to Oshkosh, WI. In 2010 Jim was inducted into the Greater Vancouver Motorsport Pioneer Society in recognition of his many years of volunteer work. He will be sorrowfully missed.

A memorial service to honour Jim will be held at the Langley Airport on February 20th, 2016 at the Cdn Museum of Flight at 5333 216 Street, Langley, BC from 2 PM to 4 PM. In lieu of fl owers please do-nate to the BC Cancer Foundation.

Lena HorrillOn Thursday, January 14, 2016, at 91

years of age, Lena Horrill passed away peacefully to be forever with her Lord with her loving family by her side. Lena was born in the village of Norton-Le-Clay in Yorkshire, England on July 6th, 1924. As a girl she enjoyed sports and excelled at track & field. Lena loved to tag along with her Dad who was a noted hedge trimmer in the area and remembers accompanying her Dad when he was called upon to trim the hedges at Highclere Castle which is where the Downton Abbey TV series was filmed. Lena’s parents owned the 3 Horseshoes Pub and when the war broke out, her mother offered the airmen in the area a laundry service. Lena much preferred helping out in the pub to spending time in the kitchen and this is where she met her future husband Morris Horrill.

In 1946, they married and were blessed with a daugh-ter, Caroline. Lena and baby Caroline made their way to Canada on the Queen Mary.

Morris and Lena first lived in Fort Frances where their son, Brent, was born and then moved on to Selkirk, Manitoba.

In 1967, Morris and Lena moved to New Westminster, BC where Lena found work at Shoppers Drug Mart. Lena enjoyed 21 years at Shoppers before retiring in 1989.

Retirement took Morris and Lena to Walnut Grove in Langley where they enjoyed many happy years and made wonderful friendships at the Southwinds Estates. Morris and Lena loved to travel; enjoying extended winter vacations in Palm Springs, Arizona, trips to England and countless trips back to Manitoba visiting and spending time with family and friends.

Family was very important to Lena and she treasured her time spent with each one of us. Lena loved to spoil us with her delicious roast beef dinner, yorkshire pudding and angel food cake desserts.

Lena was predeceased by Morris, her loving husband of almost 65 years in 2010, her parents Henry and Emily Wilson, brothers Ken and Henry Wilson and sister-in-law Bella Wilson, parents-in-law Ernie and Tina Horrill, sisters-in-law Helen Horrill, Dorothy Horrill and Phyllis Bollin, brothers-in-law Ray Horrill and Cecil Bollin.

Left to cherish her memory are, son Brent (Lynn) of Winnipeg, daughter Carol (Terry) Boyd of Nanaimo, BC, sisters-in-law Rita Wilson and Fern Horrill, brother-in-law Lyle (Irene) Horrill, grandchildren Grant (Heather) Boyd, Scott Boyd, Paul (Amanda) Boyd, Chad (Tara) Horrill and Jaimie (Brian) McCormick, great grandchildren Colin, Wesley, Megan, Matthew, Nathan, Callie and Mason, numerous nieces and nephews and many dear friends.

A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Saturday, February 20 at 1:00pm at Victory Memorial

Park Funeral Centre, 14831 28th Ave., Surrey, BC with Rev Bill Ashbee officiating.

Cremation has taken place. Flowers are gratefully de-clined. Donations may be made in Lena’s memory to a charity of your choice. Condolences may be offered at:
