While visiting our parental units last night with my sister Mary, our Dad received a call from Uncle Pat to say that he "IS IN REMISSION"!!! Wonderful news to say the least!

d say a quick hello. Well, after months of planning, kevin's inaugural tournament will be tomorrow at a local golf course. We wish this tournament all the success. He has campaigned long and hard to get politicians plus the solicitor general of BC, plus some major sponsers on board for "The Ed Schellenberg and Chris Mohan Golf Tournament." He has appeared on most of the radio and some key TV stations to rally support this this worthwhile cause. I hope you all join us in saying "way to go" to Kevin for this courageous effort. He is putting some last minute touchs to gifts, give aways etc. as we speak. I hope whoever can key into some news coverage tomorrow (6pm) will be able to hear Kevin speak. Kev, you are an amazing individual!! Love, Ann

Kevin and you Ann are to be commended! What a good cause! I understand Kevin's passion and support it. I hope this is a very successful event, and raises huge funds! Couldn't make it this year, but maybe if you come to mine, I will come to yours next year!
Love you guys,
Colleen

Bochsler Family Update

By
Last week I tried to "encourage" my family to post to this blog. I sent them all TERRIBLE pictures of themselves and threatened to post them here if they didn't post their own. Although they all responded soon enough to my threat, nobody has updated this blog yet. To be fair, this sort of thing is easier for me to do so I'll give a general update on the family. I won't post those nasty pictures just yet, because I'm sure there are some of me floating around and I don't want to start a war. You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :( ...
