Finding Photos of Trevor

I went on a hunt skimming through 2 bins and some photo albums for photos of Trevor that I could share today. That has really cut back my time to spend here, so I had to set that aside. I did find one of when he was about two and we were all home at Mom & Dad's for our sister Elsie's wedding in 1977. So I'll show you that one here.

There is also one of him as manager of the Peterbilt plant in Delta on their website. I think it would be okay to copy that and share it here.

Other than, my news so far is that his funeral will be conducted in the Ross Road Mennonite Church in Surrey, BC., on Friday afternoon. However, due to COVID restrictions they can only accommodate 200 people and since so many knew him and would like to be there, Joanne has decided this will be by invitation only. However there will be a live-stream for those of us who can't make it there.

I heard that my brother Ernie and his wife are starting their drive out towards BC today. They want to go via Edmonton to pick up Ernie's daughter Beth. (Her husband and children will come later just in time for the funeral). But that makes me think they almost have to come up through Saskatoon to get to Edmonton. They have not called to say they will be stopping in to say "Hi" to me, but I'm sort'a expecting that may happen this afternoon. It takes about 10 hours of driving from Winnipeg to Saskatoon. Knowing that Ernie likes to start out very early for long trips, I do rather expect they may just pop by for a few minutes. It is another 6 hours drive from here to Edmonton.

I have not found his obituary online yet, but they may save that for the funeral service.

I may have more to share next week.

Stopping Notifcations
on Your Smart Phone

Last week, subscriber Robin, wrote to answer this question I had raised:

Now, if someone would tell me how to stop all notifications for good on my cell phone, so I can use it as a camera. It's crazy how those notifications fill the screen - just when I'm about to take a photo. Or a video! Grr-rr-r!

It is so easy it made me blush. I had never really understood what Airplane Mode is about. But he informed me that this would stop all transmissions to and from the smart phone, so I can take photos in peace.

Now I did discover on Sunday that when I went to Facebook on my desktop my Messenger was blank. Totally silent. Then it occurred to me that maybe the Airplane Mode had turned off all outgoing messages from the Messenger feature for all my devices. I went back to my phone and turned off Airplane mode and then a few minutes later, I could access Messenger again.

Well! Live n' learn!
