Pages 13-29 ViVian & Janet’s SmokehouSe To Community Members: Our parents were told that their shed and their smoke house would be rebuilt within a week. It has been a while now since theirs burnt down. They are dis- appointed because the burnt rubbles still there. People walked off with salvagable items; the items still belonged to them, things that they paid for out of their own dollars. They are on pension and that isn’t enough to buy back what was taken or was lost in the fire. It is a shame how people are; especially towards elders’. It would be nice if their shed & smoke house be rebuilt soon. There are a few caring community members that offered them fish to replace what they lost. They don’t have any means to work on the fish because they don’t have their buildings. That is all our family would like is respect to our parents. They just recently moved back home. Their care and well being is a great con- cern to us; our father had hurt himself already trying to clean up by himself. We love our parents so much and wish community would do what they said they would do. We did our utmost best to help replace some of their lost items.
