Wounded Warriors Benefit

channel32@mac.com — 2010-09-03T12:46:39-06:00

Canada has been fighting the insurgency in Afghanistan since 9/11 (as of 13 Feb 2010). To date Canada has lost 141 soldiers in Afghanistan (since 2002), an exceptional number for such a small military force.

Wounded Warriors.ca is a not-for profit charity that support Canadian service members and veterans that have been wounded overseas.

It is primarily a fundraising mechanism that supports existing programs that tends to injured soldiers. (Programs like Canadian Segways for Wounded Warriors, run by Dept of National Defence.)

In little more than three years, Wounded Warriors.ca has raised in excess of $700,000. This is easily a credit to the overwhelming benevolence of Canadian citizens and companies alike.

Unveiling Ceremony of ONEHEART Mosaic

channel32@mac.com — 2010-08-04T11:44:47-06:00

The youth of Cardston-Kainai region have united under the banner, “Many Hands, Many Minds, ONEHEART” in their creation of a 16 foot ‘Community Social Inclusion’ Mosaic, which will be unveiled in a public ceremony, August 4th, 10:30 a.m.

The mosaic will be displayed on the Main Street of Cardston, across from the Card Home in the Reddi-Mart parking lot. The beautiful design features many symbols of a socially inclusive future and the diversity we all share; including portraits of children from many different ethnic and cultural backgrounds, as well as the influential Chief Red Crow of the Kainai-Blackfoot Nation. This original design was taken from the ideas of dozens of youth in the area and combined by Cardston local artist, Janet Mein.

Dignitaries from across Alberta will give their remarks at the ceremony, including Alberta Human Rights Chief Commissioner, Blair Mason, Blackfoot Chief Weasel Moccasin, Cardston County Reeve, Cam Francis, and Cardston Mayor, Rick Schow. Performances by Cardston Elementary Soaring Eagles, local musician Joanne Hansen, and the Blackfoot Confederacy Band will also be given.

The youth-driven project, ONEHEART is an initiative of the non-profit organization, Shinah House, and is funded by the Human Rights Education and Multiculturalism Fund, Home Hardware, the Kinsmen Club, and local organizations and merchants. Through various initiatives, it is ONEHEART’s goal to promote social inclusion; eliminating prejudice because of race, religion, illness, handicap, or other differences that exist across the globe.

“What we are hoping for is a symbol of the future- a new beginning of respect for diversity and appreciation for equality.”

As those of ONEHEART would say, the mural has come into being through ‘Many Hands, Many Minds, and ONEHEART’, as countless volunteers, community members, organizations, and youth have contributed to its creation over the past eighteen months.

EMILY VERLA BLACKMORE KAPCSOS, February 27th, 1930 - August 6th, 2010

A joyful vibrant ray of light was delivered to Emily Woolley and John Horne Blackmore on February 27, 1930. Verla entered the world 9th in a family of 12, with a singular purpose to share and show her love, serving and blessing the lives of all she encountered. From her earliest years, Verla was known by family and friends to be kind, considerate and selfless to a fault - always putting the needs of others ahead of her own.

A gifted self - taught musician, able to play any tune by ear, one of her greatest joys, to lifes last moment, was to share songs of the heart with her family. With the voice of an angel, she enriched the lives of thousands who heard her sing and play piano, organ and accordion. Verla was also a talented artist and song writer and exhibited a flair for home making and decorating.

She served a church mission to Palmyra, New York and continued that mission until August 6, 2010, fervently sharing her keen knowledge and living testimony of the gospel. Mom lived her sermons with daily purpose and conviction. In her presence one experienced godliness personified - love, compassion, humility and integrity. She was a choice spirit - a token of God’s love for us.

Possessing the essence of motherhood, Verla raised 10 children, with her whole soul and being by the side of the love of her life, Steve.

Bereft of her physical presence we who remain, remember her teachings and selfless service. We know with certainty, though her song - filled voice is silent here, it now mingles with the choirs of heaven. Verla’s greatest desire was to become like God and return to his presence. Everything she said or did was evidence that “The greatest among us is the servant of all.”

Emerson’s words appropriately sum up her life: “That person is a success who has lived well, loved much and laughed often.”

Dear mother, wife, sister, you will always hold the fondest place in our hearts.

Emily Verla Blackmore Kapcsos is survived by her loving husband of 57 years, Steve, 10 children and respective spouses, 76 grand children and 47 great - grandchildren. What a legacy.

Sincere appreciation is extended to Dr. Taylor and all those who have assisted the family during her passing.

At Verla’s request a private family celebration of her life will be held at a future date. Vaya Con Dios, elect lady.

UPDATE: Red Cross Assisting at Stand Off

channel32@mac.com — 2010-06-02T11:20:49-06:00

Local Red Cross volunteers and staff were initially called out on May 28, 2010, by Blood Tribe Disaster Services to provide shelter, food, and water for 20 people. The number of people who have been affected by flooding on parts of the Stand Off Blood Tribe Reserve has now increased to 42, ranging in age from seven to 80 years old. These 42 individuals were especially vulnerable because they are either elderly or have medical conditions. They are being lodged in hotels in the Lethbridge, Cardston and Fort Macleod areas. In addition, a shelter has been set up in Moses Lake. It is being operated by Blood Tribe Family and Community Support Services with Red Cross blankets and cots. Seven people took shelter there on May 30. The Canadian Red Cross Team was on scene immediately after receiving a call for assistance.
