More than 70 guests enjoyed Deka Lake & District Volunteer Fire Department (DL&DVFD) Ladies Auxiliary’s (LA) annual Fall Dinner of roast beef and Yorkshire pudding.
Five-year-old Alex Gardner helped LA president Lorna Wiebe draw the winning raffle tickets, and prizes were awarded as follows:
First, quilt and pillows, Doralie Roon; trolling motor, Horst Mann; afghan, Sharon Sowles; power washer, Bryant Spence; drill, Mel Lavery; and first aid kit/smoke detectors, Donna Jarvis.
By some miraculous stroke, and out of over 70 guests present, the door prizes (one male, one female) went to new resident Shirley Campbell and to her husband, Howard.

Friends send many congratulations to Deka’s Wolf Zink on his engagement to Catherine Yoo, a Burnaby resident whom he met in London, England.
