Sympathy is extended to the family of George (Sonny) Smith who passed away March 4 in Kamloops, B.C. He was 85. Sonny was raised in Endiang as his father George Sr. was the CNR section foreman. After leaving Endiang, Sonny often returned to the district to visit his brother and sister-in-law, Alex and Anne Smith, their family and other friends. Sonny built the stone cairn in Endiang that was constructed for the 1975 homecoming.
Our thoughts are with Sonny’s family in the loss of a fine gentleman.
