1 "HAD the pleasure of at-
tending a Mother’s Day
brunch on Sunday, May 9th
at Terrace’s Branch 13 of
the Royal Canadian Legion.

This brunch was part of
the celebration for the 80th

aniversary of the Legion ae

atid I have. to say, this orga-
nization ‘has over those 80
years contributed greatly to
our community,

And to all those people
who have heen dedicated
members, you should ‘be
proud that you have been
dedicated members of the
Terrace community.

Certainly they have all
helped io make Terrace a
better place in which to live.
And to them J say a big con-
gaatulations for all their hard
work and many hours of
volunteered tine.

‘While at the Mother’s Day
lanch with a few friends, we
met some out of town
guests. One of those guests
I;had the privilege of meet-
ing was Noreen Oliver.

iNoreen’s father, William
Oliver, was the president of
ihe Legion in 1929, which at
that time was called The
Great War Veterans Associ-
ation.

‘Noreen now lives in Cal-
gary and she has returned to
Terrace to attend the 80th.
celebration at the Legion for
her father.

‘William = (Bill) sand
Marianne Oliver came. to
Terrace in 1925 from

Langenbery, Saskatchewan,
Mr. Oliver was a veteran of
WWI.

‘In 1936, Mr. Oliver went
to Vimey Ridge with a
group of veterans to pay
respect to all those who did
not return home.

‘Of course, 1936 was the
year of the big flood, so his
only way out of Terrace was
by rail specder,

worked with Walter Warner
on the telegraph lines and
on June 9, 1926 daughter
Noreen was bom at the
Wrinch Memorial Hospital
in Hazelton.

There was, of course, no
hospital in Terrace at that
time so mothers either had
their babies at home, or
caught the first train out of
town. They either went to
Prince Rupert or Hazelton-
depending on what way the

_ train was going that day.

In 1934, Mr. Oliver built

to attend the Royal Canadian Legion’ s aoth a anniver-

their home at 4641 Lazelle
Ave., where the Cookie Jar
Bakery is today.

The house was sold to
Lary Pmden and it was
