By
Cst. JOE PASLOSKI
Neepawa Detachment
S pruce Plains RCMP responded to a total of 239 calls
for service in the month of April.
On April 2nd, at approximately 6:25 p.m., police
were patrolling Highway #10 north of Minnedosa where
they came across a vehicle travelling south. The vehicle
slowed quickly as it approached police and a traffic stop
was initiated. A lone female was located inside the ve-
hicle which was determined to be unregistered. The
female displayed signs of intoxication to police and a
roadside test was administered. The female failed this
test and was arrested for Impaired Operation of a Motor
Vehicle. The female was brought back to the Minnedosa
RCMP Detachment where she provided two samples of
breath reading 100 mg% and 90 mg%. As a result, Lee-
anne Blackbird of Keeseekoowenin was charged with Im-
paired Operation of a Motor Vehicle, Impaired Operation
of a Motor Vehicle while over 80 mg% and two Highway
Traffic Act off ences. On May 23rd, Blackbird plead guilty
to the Impaired Operation of a Motor Vehicle while over
80 mg% and received a $1,430 fine along with a one-year
driving prohibition.
On April 7th, police were contacted by a business
owner in Kelwood stating that a group of individuals at-
tended the Kelwood Corner Service Plus and stole four
tires off a parked vehicle. It was determined that a female
attended the location in regards to a vehicle that had
been repossessed from her and she wanted the four tires
from the vehicle as she purchased new ones. She was
told to leave the property and she couldnt have her tires.

the four tires were gone. As a result, Amber Govereau of
Bacon Ridge Settlement has been charged with Theft and
a Warrant has been issued for her arrest.
Emergency personnel were called to a motor vehicle
collision at the south junction of Highways #16 and #10
on April 27th. It was determined that the driver of a car
travelling west did not stop at the stop sign and collided
with a grain truck. The male driver of the car sustained
minor injuries and was transported to the Minnedosa
hospital. The driver of the grain truck received no inju-
ries. The driver of the car, Inengu Mpoku, of Calgary, AB
was charged for failing to stop at a stop sign.
On April 29th, police were called to multiple loca-
tions near Arden and Plumas in regards to a suspicious
male driving a quad. Police were patrolling the area and
came across a male matching the description given driv-
ing the quad while being towed through the parking lot
at GWB Auto Sales in Plumas. A traffic stop was initiated
with the vehicles. Police approached the quad to speak
with the driver when they noticed that the ignition was
removed from the quad. The male was arrested for pos-
session of stolen property and the removed ignition was
located in his pocket. With the help of Brandon Police
Service, it was determined that the quad was stolen from
a location in Brandon at some point during the night and
being driven by the male back to Sandy Bay. As a result,
Shane Richard of Brandon was charged with Posses-
sion of Property Obtained by Crime and Fail to Comply
with a Probation Order. On May 23rd, Richard appeared
in court and plead guilty to Possession of Property Ob-
tained by Crime and received a jail sentence of 60 days in
custody.
The speeders of the month get to share the honours
this time. Tammy Parsons of Winnipeg and Vernon Hall
of Moosomin, SK were both found travelling 141 km/hr
by Cst. Cowan. Both will make a donation of $586.75 to
the Province.

T he community of New-
dale was bustling with
activity last Saturday, June
17th. A full days-worth of
activities began at 8 a.m.
with a pancake and sau-
sage breakfast at the Curl-
ing Club, sponsored by the
Harrison Park Age Friendly
Initiative committee. Vol-
unteers served breakfast
to over 90 people and with
donations collected at the
door, was able to give $400
to the Newdale Volunteer
Fire Department.
The Fire Department
held its own activities Sat-
urday with a well attended
barbeque lunch, yard sale
table and hosting an open
house for people to check
out the fire truck and res-
cue equipment. During
the lunch, members of
Newdales Volunteer Fire
Department served 10
dozen bbq hot dogs along
with deep fried French
Fries, drinks and Rice
Krispie cake. The lunch
raised $450 added with
the $400 donation from
fundraising for the fire de-
partment to $850!
At 10:30 a.m. a crowd
of approximately 50 peo-
ple gathered outside the
recently re-located New-
dale Post office for an of-
ficial opening ceremony.
On March 18th, after 62
years in the store building
at the corner of Main Street
and Minnedosa Street,
the Newdale Post Office
relocated into the for-
mer board room/council
chamber space in the R.M.
of Harrison-Park office lo-
cated at the corner of Main
Street and Harrison Street.
The Save Our Post of-
fice committee, which in-
cluded Shelley Zahaiko,
Graham Duncan, Dale
Smith, Emil Zariwney,
Bruce Dalgarno and Post-
mistress Dorothy Levich,
looked at various options
before deciding on a reno-
vation to space in the R.M.
office.
Dorothy thanked ev-
eryone who supported
the initiative to keep New-
tion. They saw the need
and the committee worked
to make sure the need was
met and as a result, New-
dale will have a post of-
fice for many more years,
stated Dorothy who cut
the ribbon alongside R.M.
of Harrison-Park Reeve,
Lloyd Ewashko. The mu-
nicipality and council
definitely believe that the
post office is sort of a cor-
ner stone in our commu-
nity and I have to thank
our council for having the
vision to allow this to hap-
pen in our chambers to
allow the post office to re-
main on Main Street and
provide total access for ev-
erybody, said Lloyd.
Following the ribbon
cutting, cookies and coffee
were served to guests in

was a worthwhile mission
and set the wheels in mo-

soil types were identified
in Manitoba and of those,
five were nominated as

After much debate and
review of the different

members reached a con-

of a ball and clubs, players

OBITUARIES
ALFRED KIHN
July 18th, 1926, Steinbach (Friedensfeld), Manitoba
to December 8th, 2016, Didsbury, Alberta
Loving husband to wife Ida (nee Freier) and father to six
children: Helga (Dan), Linda (Terry), David, Mark, Timothy (Tam-
my), and Ronald. Alfred also was grandfather to 12 grandchildren
(one deceased) and he was great grandfather to seven.
Alfred was born in the family farmhouse in the Friedens-
feld District to Emil and Anna (Zelmer) Kihn. He was one of 11
children (seven boys, four girls) born to German immigrants who
had arrived a decade earlier. Alfred is survived by one brother:
Walter, Emerson, MB., and three sisters: Pauline Marshall (Ernie),
Binscarth, MB.; Caroline Freier (Alvin), Binscarth, MB; and Rosina
Volkenant (David), Tolstoi, MB. Alfred was pre-deceased by his par-
ents, and brothers Martin, Joseph, Leopold, Theofield, Eduard, and a
sister, Helena.
After grade school in Friedensfeld, Alfred worked on the family farm. He took
extra work helping out neighbours. In his later teens, he headed to Northwest Ontarios forests to
labour in bush camps, cutting and hauling logs for the lumber and pulp and paper industries.
In the summers, he worked on road-building crews in Manitoba operating heavy equip-
ment. One project was Hwy. #10 near the old Cameron School.
In spring 1944, he answered the Draft Notice for WWII recruits, and made his way to Win-
nipeg for his medical exam. Since the War was almost over, he and many other farmboys were
immediately sent home to plant the spring crops.
While working in Dryden, ON., Alfred met Ida on a Sunday morning at Our Saviour Lutheran
Church. They married on April 22nd, 1955 and they began a family in Dryden. Alfred ran his
trucking business hauling pulpwood for Dryden Paper. Six children and 12 years later in March,
1967, they moved to a Basswood grain and beef cattle farm, just west of Minnedosa, right along
the Yellowhead Hwy.
In 1978, they moved to Creston, BC, where Alfred again got involved in the lumber industry.
In 1989, Alfred and Ida moved to Didsbury for retirement and to be nearer to their children.
Alfred was always active in his Lutheran Church. He used his track loader to dig the new
church basement in Dryden in the late 1950s and he repeated that in the early 1970s when
members renovated Erickson Lutheran Church. He was always involved, whether as Sunday
School trustee, serving on a church board, or in his later years, as the most dedicated snow-blow-
er and lawn-mower operator in Didsbury. He was always around Redeemer Lutheran Church.
His talents were hands-on skill and determination to fix a bulldozer in the harsh Ontario
northwoods at -30C; instinct to seek out the best blueberry or saskatoon patches -- and then
have the patience to pick the wild fruit; and inventiveness plus a can do attitude to repair and
upgrade heavy equipment and farm machinery.
Alfred enjoyed growing things: wheat on the Basswood farm, apples in Creston, and his
huge Didsbury potato patch.
Fluent in German, he loved those more serious conversations when he slipped in the Moth-
er Tongue with wife Ida, or with his many brothers.
As a child, Alfred experienced the Great Depression and survived. Those 10 desperate years
shaped his character: nothing wasted, always save for tomorrow, and work hard without hesita-
tion. One of his favourite sayings was Work is its own reward.
Alfreds last two years were lived out at the Bethany Care Centre where he struggled with
dementia. After several falls in the last two months, our good Lord chose to call him Home.
His funeral was held December 13th, 2016 at Redeemer Lutheran Church, with Pastor Dar-
ren Dressler and Vicar Scott Brayall presiding. Alfred was buried in the Didsbury Cemetery.
Memorial gifts (tax receiptable) in Alfreds name may be made to Redeemer Lutheran
Church, Box 487, Didsbury, Alberta T0M 0W0.

SUSAN JANCZYSZYN
September 16th, 1928
June 18th, 2017
Susan passed away peacefully in Winnipeg,
Susan was born and lived on her farm in Rackham, Mani-
toba until she moved to Winnipeg in 2003. Susan married Mi-
chael Janczyszyn in 1948 and they farmed together until his pass-
ing in 1991. Susan was predeceased by her husband Michael in
1991, son Eugene in 2005, parents Michael and Justina Florko in
1948, sister Anne Zatylny in 1977, brother Frank Florko in 2007,
sister Mary Warwaruk in 2013 and great grandson Tobias Kundert
in 2009.
Susan is survived by her sons Augustine (Barb) and Ed
(Heather), 7 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren. Susan
endurded many years of hardship with Menieres (inner ear) disease.
Her ear surgery In 1960 left her deaf in her right ear and her remaining
hearing deteriorated over the years causing dizziness and deafness.
Susan always worked hard on the farm and was very proud of her garden. She liked to cook
and bake and those who visited the farm never left hungry. While on the farm she also spent a lot
of time sewing quilts for all her family and those that were close to her. Susan moved to Winnipeg
in early 2003 to be closer to Ed, Heather and her grandsons Eric and Jeff who were always there to
help her. She enjoyed getting letters and phone calls from friends and family and always looked
forward to the mail arriving. While in Winnipeg, Susan took up a rug hooking hobby and made
many rugs for her friends and family. Ed had a hard time keeping up to find her new kits to do and
she always enjoyed getting and quickly completing them. She regularly spent time at Eds place
cooking and baking bread and making donuts, perogies and borscht. She enjoyed her time at her
home in Winnipeg, but was always most happy to visit her farm, her family, and her friends there.
It was Susans wish to thank those who kept in touch with her through the years with many
visits, letters and phone calls.
Susans family will be available for condolences on Wednesday, June 21st from 7:00 p.m.
to 9:00 p.m. at Neil Bardal Funeral Centre at 3030 Notre Dame Avenue in Winnipeg. At Susans
request; cremation has taken place.
Funeral Service will be held at St. Anthonys Church in Jackfish, Manitoba on Saturday June
24th at 10:00 a.m. with Deacon Conrand Plante officiating.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to St. Anthonys R.C. Church in Jackfish, St. Judes
R.C. Church in Erickson, Erickson Hospital, or a charity of your choice.

DAVID ARTHUR JOHNSON
November 8th, 1938 - June 8th, 2017
David Arthur Johnson, 78, entered into rest at the
Minnedosa Health Centre.
He leaves to mourn, his special friend and companion of
25 years, Hazel Nagorski and family; his sister Anne and Gordon
Singleton and family; and many friends and acquaintances.
Born and raised in Solihull, England on November 8, 1938
to Horace and Amy (Hobby) Johnson, David grew up with a love
of the land and animals. His attentions focused on operating a
mixed sheep and cattle farm known as Cwmbrain Farms in Knigh-
ton Downs, Wales, U.K.
Intrigued by stories of his father who spent a dec-
ade in Canada in his early years, nearing the age of fifty David
sold Cwmbrain Farm and embarked on his own adventure
to Canada, taking up residence in the Rural Municipality of
Clanwilliam (SW 10-17-17W). Here he operated a mixed grain and cattle farm
and continued to reside in the municipality until his passing. David made numerous special con-
nections with those he met and endeared himself in the hearts of many.
David relished the relationships he made and was easily described as a true gentleman in
a class all of his own because he knew the value of others hearts.
A private service and internment will take place at a later date.
Thank you for calling,
It was always a pleasure.
We wish you our best,
On your next big adventure.
The True Gentleman
by John Walter Wayland
The True Gentleman is the man whose conduct proceeds from good will
and an acute sense of propriety, and whose self-control is equal to all emergencies
Who does not make the poor man conscious of his poverty, the obscure man of his obscurity,
or any man of his inferiority or deformity
Who is himself humbled if necessity compels him to humble another
Who does not flatter wealth, cringe before power,
or boast of his own possessions or achievements
Who speaks with frankness but always with sincerity and sympathy
Whose deed follows his word; who thinks of the rights and
feelings of others, rather than his own
And who appears well in any company,
a man with whom honor is sacred and virtue safe.

A $10,000 Boost For New Clinic

centra is Canadas leading
provider of wholesale fi-
nance and trust solutions
for credit unions.
With this generous do-
nation, the funds raised for
the Primary Care Centre
have reached about $1.7
million. This amount is
$500,000 away from their
goal of $2.2 million, and
they need your help to get
there.
According to Gord
Lane, Chairman of the Pri-
mary Care Centre commit-
tee, they are still commu-
nicating with businesses
to try to secure more do-
nations. One thing Lane
Photo by Hillary Campbell has noticed is that they
are starting to see some
second-time donors, peo-
ple who donated last year,
who have come forward
again, chequebooks in
hand. This is encouraging
for the group, but donated
funds are still needed in
order to get the Primary
Care Centre offthe ground.
The group is still waiting to
hear from the Province, to
see whether they will be
given any funds toward the
project.
Coming up, the fund-
raising committee will be
holding a supper raffle to
raise funds for the Primary
Care Centre. The building
committee has recently
met with representatives
from T.L. Penner Construc-
tion, the project managers,
as they are trying to work
out the final details for the
drawings of the Care Cen-
tre. Once the drawings
are fi nalized, the commit-
tee will be able to go into
a tendering process, and
fi nalize the pricing on the
project.
Of the donation, Lane
commented, it is nice to
get something going be-
fore summer holidays,
and everything slows up in
July. If all goes as planned,
the group hopes to get the
project underway by early
fall of this year.

Raising Rafters
