The Friends of Bridge Lake (FBL) Summer Speakers for July 25 are CEEDS’ Karen Greenwood and Rod Hennecker, giving useful tips on organic gardening, and answering questions. Everyone is welcome at 7 p.m. at the Interlakes Community Centre.

FBL’s annual general meeting will immediately follow CEEDS’ presentation, so please attend to keep the organization flourishing.

Surgeon

Congratulations to Stephanie Ruscheinsky on becoming a surgeon in Internal Medicine, now working in Saskatoon. Brought up at Sheridan Lake and educated at Bridge Lake School and Peter Skene Ogden Secondary School, she graduated from UNBC Prince George.

And to her younger brother, Stephen, on his graduation as a nurse from UBC Kelowna, now working in Kelowna.

Congrats also to parents, Tim and Julie, now residents at Sun Peaks, on a job well done!

Condolences

Those of us at Deka who knew Kitty Adolph were saddened by her July 2 passing, at the age of 47.

We send deepest sympathy to her husband, Keith, and love and compassion to her boys.
