Following the war, Dr. Kubinski emigrated to Belgium and received her medical degree from the University of Brussels in 1949. She remained in Belgium, serving on the medical staff at the University Hospital Brigman in Brussels, as well as serving as a medical examiner for the International Refugee Organization.

While practicing in Moose Jaw, Halina completed her residency in Internal Medicine at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, and also served as Captain in the Canadian Armed Forces until 1980. At that time she moved to Tsawwassen, British Columbia, establishing her practice there while becoming allied with Delta Community Hospital.

In concurrence with her wishes, no services will be held. A gathering of friends, family and colleagues will be held at a date to be determined.

LEES, Vera Vera a long time resident of New Westminster, passed away peacefully August 19, 2004. Vera was born in Manitoba on October 18, 1906 into the Clement family, early Canadian pioneers. Vera became a teacher and taught all grades in country schools in Manitoba and Alberta in the 20's and 30's. When Vera moved to New Westminster, kindergarten was not part of the public system, so Vera taught over 800 children at her private kindergarten, Westminster Heights, between 1950 and 1971. Vera was instrumental in starting the first curling club in New Westminster and spent over 60 years with her friends in The Evening Circle from St. Barnabas Church.

Vera Lees will remain an inspiration to her family and many friends. There will be a celebration of Vera's life at a later date.

LEVESQUE, Ernest Rolland September 2, 1942 - August 14, 2004. Always remembered in love and honour, Ernie will live on in the hearts and minds of his loving wife Jacquie; his sons, Gabriel and Alain; his stepchildren, Anton, Hilary and Ryan; his former wife Nancy Levesque; his sisters, Madeleine Dennis of Sudbury, Ontario and Leone Dedman of North Bay, Ontario, and his dog Jake. Ernie was a man of conviction, principle and boundless energy. He brought wisdom and integrity to his work as an urban planner in a number of B.C. municipalities, most recently in Port Coquitlam as Director of Development Services. His greatest joys were classical music and the wilderness. For many years, he drove the backwoods, hiked the trails and fished the lakes of BC's interior until he and his wife found a remote lakefront cabin - the place of their dreams. There he built his projects by hand and tied flies. He often rowed alone to cast his line into the evening rise. When night fell he read by lamplight, watched night sky, listened to the call of the loons and his favorite sacred music. He will be hugely missed by us all, except perhaps by the odd trout. A celebration of Ernie's life will be held Wednesday, August 25th at 3:00pm at the Highlands United Church, 3255 Edgemont Blvd, North Vancouver with a reception to follow. The family is composing a book of memoirs of Ernie's life for future generations and would be grateful for any thoughts or photos. Please bring them to the service or email to glevesque@sd61.bc.ca. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Centre for Integrated Healing, Vancouver B.C., or the Cancer Agency of your choice.
