…I would like to dedicate my post and photos today to a real life hero, Tim Jones, who died suddenly and unexpectedly last Sunday .  Whilst I never knew him personally, like so many others, I was aware of his remarkable leadership and heroism. He had been a volunteer with Vancouver’s North Shore Mountain Rescue Service since 1987 and over the past nearly thirty years involved in over 2000 rescues. I would encourage you to read about his life and the people whose lives he saved.  Today he is being honoured with a parade through the streets of North Vancouver followed by a memorial service.

To the memory of Tim Jones, 1956 -2014, together with all our other fallen heroes
