CARD OF THANKS
The family of Regina Storbakken would like to extend a sincere thanks to Dr. Hagen, Dr. Hallett, Dr. Nieman, and the nursing staff of Viking Health Centre for the excellent care Regina received while a patient there. A special thanks goes to Fee & Sons Funeral Home for the compassion and kindness shown to us during our loss, and to the Sedgewick Seniors’ Centre members who graciously allowed us to use their facility prior to the funeral. Pastors Ron and Elaine Hobden prepared and led the service in a very considerate and loving way. Thank you to them and to the pallbearers and honourary pallbearers for their part in the service. The Frissells, Sheldon, Willow, and Tanner deserve a very exceptional thanks for the fitting songs they chose to sing to us all that afternoon. We would like to acknowledge and thank the friends and relatives for the visits, the cards, the flowers, the beautiful gifts, the food, and the words of sympathy and comfort we received during our bereavement. Undesignated donations given in memory of Regina were sent to the Mazankowski Heart Institute in Edmonton where Regina has also received care. Following the service, Thyme For You Catering (Esther Ford and staff) served a lovely lunch which we so appreciated. Thank you. Also our extreme gratitude goes to those friends who travelled a great distance to be with us that day. We really appreciate all that was done. You have touched our lives in so many ways!

Help Rewrite the Future
of Our Community
Join the Unstoppable Conversation
Volunteer Alberta has chosen the communities of Flagstaff to participate in a unique opportunity that will impact the direction and future of our communities.
This is a community event, and all community leaders, no matter what capacity you play, are invited.
Unstoppable Conversations will be leading us in what promises to be a transformative experience for our community. This process will be unlike ANY other we have ever witnessed or engaged in.
The Unstoppable
Conversations sessions
are slated for
October 2 and 3 at
Killam Community Hall
from 9 am – 4 pm both days.
This is NOT more talk, strategic planning, sticky notes, or a pep rally. It is not “expert advice” or more tips on how to “improve” our community.
This is Definitely NOT a conversation about regional governance or losing individual community identity.
This session will be one-of-a-kind, no nonsense conversation, the likes of which has already created breakthroughs in multiple communities across the province.
And we would like you to be part of this
conversation.
Why should you take time out of your busy life to join the conversation?
You will see what others don’t, say what others won’t, and do what others can’t.
You will walk away knowing you made a real difference and with at least two powerful tools that can transform your own life!
For more information on the process please visit unstoppableconversations.com.
