The house was full and everyone enjoyed chili, coleslaw, buns and dessert.The line dancers demonstrated their skills and Mission Fest Singers serenaded the audience. There was also a sing-along.The event was an opportunity for old friends to connect again and form new alliances. The group is now planning a luncheon in December at the Mission Seniors Activity Centre to celebrate Christmas with all members and friends. For more information about the group, call 604-814-2188.

Members of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 57, Albert (Knobby) Clark and Ethel Beckingham, remember the sacrifi ces made, especially by comrades, on Remembrance Day.

Local legion members honour Nov. 11Royal Canadian Legion branches across the country are busy preparing for Remembrance Day and raising funds through poppy sales to support their local community.In Mission, the Nov. 11 ceremonies begin with a parade at 10:15 a.m. from Ecole Des Deux-Rives (near the corner of Seventh Avenue and Stave Lake Street) to the Clarke Theatre on Prentis Avenue. Everyone is invited to take part in the official ceremonies at 10:40 a.m. inside the theatre. Wreaths will be laid at the cenotaph outside the local legion on Logan Avenue following the ceremony.Remembrance Day has a special place in many Canadians’ hearts, and it’s a day Branch 57 legion members Ethel Beckingham and Albert (Knobby) Clark will never forget.Clark was just 16 years old when he volunteered to join the paratroopers in 1943. Knobby, as he is

fondly known as, was considered too small to be in the group, but that didn’t stop him. In fact, he wanted to join so much, he had two teeth pulled just before his dental exam. A paratrooper couldn’t have any fillings because the change in atmospheric pressure could cause them to burst, he explained. Once Clark completed his basic paratrooper training, he was immediately posted oversees to the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion, serving in England and northwest Europe. Clark’s battalion served in arguably four of the most famous battle areas of WWII: Normandy, Ardennes, Rhine and Elbe.Clark does not speak much about Normandy, offering simply that “it was very loud.” The battalion members were the first ones that parachuted into Normandy on D Day, June 6, 1944, shortly after midnight and fought continuously until the

beginning of September when the battalion reached the Seine River.The 1st Battalion was rushed into the Belgian Ardennes at the end of December 1944 during bitterly cold weather to help stem the German attack in what became known as the Battle of the Bulge.On March 24, 1945 at 1000 hours, the battalion parachuted across the Rhine River into German territory to attack from behind German troops who were resisting the Allied troops crossing the Rhine.At Elbe, after fighting their way across Germany, the battalion crossed the Elbe River passing many surrendering German soldiers. The battalion raced on to reach the town of Wismar on the Baltic Sea on May 2, 1945, three hours ahead of the Russian army.On May 31, 1945, the battalion was posted to Canada in preparation to engage the Japanese in the Far East, but with Japan’s

surrender, the unit was disbanded. In September 2000, Clark and the rest of the surviving members of the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion were honoured in Alberta, where the four peaks of the Ex Coelis Mountain were named after the four above-mentioned battle areas — the first time this has been done in Canada, added Clark.Clark is still an active man, devoting many volunteer hours to the Mission branch of the Royal Canadian Legion.Ethel Beckingham, who enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1954, is also an outstanding

community builder. Beckingham served as a fighter control officer and communications operator in Quebec, Ontario and Vancouver.Working with the legion, she organizes the essay and poster

contest in Mission schools every year, teaching children about the importance of Remembrance Day.For more information about the Mission legion, visit www.rcl57.org or its Facebook page.

Albert (Knobby) Clark will be a part of the local Remembrance Day ceremonies again this year.

Seniors Living 55 Plus has now successfully been published for six months and many of you may be wondering why and how it came to be.On Nov. 19, 2012, a group of seniors’ organizations met to discuss a better way to communicate with the seniors of Mission and they approached The Record to include a monthly seniors section in the newspaper. The original idea was to have a two page section to connect seniors in the community and to provide options to keep aging adults active. This project has now grown to an eight-page pull out because of the need for such a publication aimed at our growing seniors population.The inaugural edition was published on April 25, 2013 and since then has been included in The Record on the last Thursday of the month and distributed to all Mission homes. Additional copies are circulated to various seniors’ groups and locations around the community.The group meets monthly with Crystal Orchison and Carol Aun from The Record to review the current edition and make plans for future publications. Other

members involved in this project are Gordon Dainard, the facilitator; Ian Graham and Diana Muntigl from Lifetime Learning Centre Society; Felice Clements from Mission Community Services Society; Bryan Fawcett from Mission Seniors Advisory Committee; Bob Ingram and Jean Price from Mission Seniors Centre Association; George Evens from Elder Citizens Action Coalition; and Sophie Zehner and Darlene Bruntlet from Old Age Pensioners Organization.Seniors Living 55 Plus is made possible with the support of the Mission Record and local businesses with their advertising. We acknowledge and thank them for their contribution to this success.If you have events, articles or photos of Mission citizens aged 55-plus living healthy lives through artistic, mental, physical, social and spiritual activities, you can contact Gordon Dainard by e-mail at gdainard333@gmal.com to discuss inclusion in future editions. For advertising opportunities, call Crystal Orchison at 604-851-4444.

Meet ... George Evens

INTRODUCTIONGeorge was born in Ottawa and spent most of his years in Vancouver

and Burnaby. He married Claudia and together moved to Mission in 1992 where he developed an interest in politics and animal welfare.

George contines to operate his office cleaning business and spent many years as a senior executive with major retail chains.

VOLUNTEERGeorge founded the Council Animal Advocacy (CLAW) in 1995 and the

Elder Citizen Action Coalition in 2008. ECAC is a privately owned and operated advocacy group representing the interest of all seniors. George is also a member of the Living 55 Plus committee. He believes society is as strong as the weakest link, and volunteers to devote attention to making the lives of animals and humans who are less fortunate better.

KEEPING ACTIVEGeorge is persistent and a prolific letter writer who works to improve

lives of animals and seniors. He enjoys reading, mostly business books or topics related to a current project; and watching comedy sit-coms and movies.

“Volunteering can give back to

society some of the benefits you have gained and make the mind

feel like rejoicing when you can

contribute to any measures of

success for your chosen cause.”

Did you know that close to one in four Canadians wear either complete upper and lower dentures or partials? So what is the best way to keep our dentures clean? Denture cleaning is an integral part to keep your dentures looking and feeling great. If you don’t clean your dentures properly, your smile won’t be as attractive and you may experience bad breath and stained dentures. Dental plaque that adheres to your prosthesis creates biofilm, which is a perfect breeding ground for some very scary bacteria such as MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus

aureus), or drug-resistant staphylococcus aureus bacteria. If this layer of biofilm is not removed on a regular basis, bacteria may be inhaled into your lungs and cause hard to treat lung infections. Plaque on dentures may also calcify and turn into calculus, commonly known as tartar, which needs to be removed by a dental professional. When considering all these potential health risks, daily cleaning of partial or full dentures becomes a very worthwhile and essential task. Many dentures wearers are not sure if they should brush their false teeth during the day or soak them in denture cleaner overnight.

This is my recommendation:• Brush your dentures after every meal to remove biofilm and food particles. Use a moistened denture brush and liquid hand soap or Polident Fresh Cleanse. Do not use regular tooth paste as it will wear away the denture acrylic. • Soak your dentures daily using a professional denture cleaner such as Nu-Dent or Renew to remove plaque deposits and other stains such a coffee, teach and smoke. • Don’t soak your dentures in bleach or other household cleaners as this will damage the acrylic.• An ultrasonic cleaner is the best way to keep your dentures clean. Dentures

are placed in a denture cleaning solution and the ultrasonic action creates tiny air bubbles that lift off stains. Patients who use one regularly comment that their dentures have never felt cleaner. • Remember to rinse dentures thoroughly after soaking to remove traces of the denture cleanser. Do not use hot water to do this as it may warp and damage your dentures.If you wear dentures, do yourself and your mouth a favour and clean your dentures every day.

Clean your dentures daily to avoid potential health risks

How it works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fi ll each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can fi gure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numer-ic clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle. Look for the solution in next month’s puzzle section of Living 55 Plus.

Dental Implants gave us a confi dent smile

This couple have something to smile about. They used to wear dentures, which caused discomfort, an inability to eat many foods and a lack of con dence when it came to smiling and talking.

Now they enjoy the freedom of NobelSmile dental implants, which areas close to natural teeth as you can get. People who lose a tooth want to replace it with something permanent, says Dr. Lui, instead of something they have to remove. “Once you give someone new, permanent teeth, you can see their personality shine through again.”

“Whether you have a single tooth, several teeth or everyone of them missing...we can help.”
