Troop Number and Year: Troop 1, 1961

  The Isle of Jersey, London, Edinburgh, Scotland. Yvonne and I were selected to represent Yukon. We were personally introduced to The Queen and Prince Philip.  Prince Philip knew Yukon and was quite a joker. Yvonne was selected, with a few other wives, to attend 10 Downing Street for afternoon tea with Cherie Blair and their new baby.

 

By 2004 Yvonne and I decided to totally retire.  We started spending 5 months a year in Arizona, USA. We had to save one month for halibut fishing in Icy Straits, Hoonah, Alaska.

 

My 35 plus year career in the RCMP was indeed rewarding for Yvonne, me, and our 3 children who all have excellent careers. My career in the RCMP was an education in itself. Where else could an 18-year old boy have so many courses and such a rewarding life? Yvonne certainly deserved her “Second Man Award.” Our complete family benefited from this education.
