Remembrance Day… What does it mean to you?

Do you have a connection with a soldier who has fought for our freedom?

This year, Remembrance Day is especially meaningful to me.  I recently travelled to Europe and while there I visited some World War II sites.  My small glimpse into the devastation and destruction of war has given me a little more understanding of the terrible experiences soldiers faced.  My appreciation of the sacrifices that the Allied troops made for our freedom is much greater now.

I visited a number of sites significant in World War 2 in various places (museums, cemeteries, concentration camp & memorials) as well as learned about a family member who was involved in the Dutch Resistance.  A great-uncle who I never had the privilege of knowing because he was captured & killed by the Germans.

Denbow Office Manager

 

 

The Denbow family honours Martin McGuillicky who has passed away. He had many roles over the years at Denbow. He was father to Co-owner Joanne. Father-In-Law to Bill and Paul. Grandpa to Michelle, Frank and Cody, as well as an employee here at Denbow.

25 years ago Martin retired from his service in the Canadian Military. He then came to do a variety of jobs here at Denbow part-time to help us out. He delivered sawdust and mulch with the small delivery truck. Did minor maintenance jobs. He also was one of our first sawdust installers to go out and help when a farmer couldn’t meet up with the sawdust delivery truck.

Martin will be remembered and he lives on in our memories.

One of our poultry farm clients – Ray Nickel from Vye Road Ventures and Crossborder Poultry – is featured in this article in Canadian Poultry Magazine about bio-security on poultry farms in BC.  Denbow’s staff are careful to follow proper bio-security protocols as we deliver and install sawdust at multiple poultry farms each day.
