CLCRA is sad to share the news that long time volunteer and Board member, Stan Brynjolfson, passed away on October 4th. Stan and his wife, Edith, lived in Vancouver, Delta and Langley over their working years, during which Stan was an Analytical Chemist. Upon retirement, they moved to their home on Commonage in fall 2000 and both quickly became involved with the Community & Recreation Association. Stan was involved with the development of the Carr’s Landing Neighbourhood Plan as well as with the local Environmental Association. A long time Board member of CLCRA, Stan's last term officially ended at the Annual General Meeting the day after her died. Stan was actively involved in the barbeques that used to be held at Coral Beach Park and worked on initiatives like the Coral Beach float and tennis court surfacing. When not volunteering, Stan enjoyed making beer and wine, visits from his grandchildren and working on his classic 1951 Chevy. One of Stan’s last outings was to a mini show and shine on Schaad Road, with his two sons. A memorial for Stan was held Saturday, November 5th, in Langley.
