A message from Kamloops North Thompson MLA Ward Stamer, on the passing of TNRD Director and Mayor of Sun Peaks, Al Raine

We’ve lost a tremendous man.

Al Raine was not only respected by everyone who knew him and worked with him, he was a man with incredible vision and determination.

I had the good fortune to sit beside Al in our final years together at the TNRD. When Al spoke, everyone listened, and we knew his experience would lead us in making good decisions for the people we represent.

Al was a friend, and someone I could trust.

My thoughts are with his wife Nancy and their family at this most difficult time.

Thanks Al, you will be remembered fondly and dearly missed
