SMITHERS

The Smithers Central Office has always
been located in the read of the old Phone Mart Building,
on 4th Ave. across from the Smithers Fire Hall
and directly behind the Bulkley Hotel.

Couple names I remember

Ralph (Breezy) Ayers (retired in 1984 after 36 yrs+ service)**
Brian Wolfe , 2 (the Smithers one!) (left to Kamloops) (was Local 28 Conv Delegate)
Dick Konschuh
Bob Haslett
Andrew (Andy) Stalker
Al Coupe
Graig Pearen
Chuck Lequereux*
Chuck Harmon
Glen Burns (quit in 1979)
Chris Desjardins (left to Smtr Const in 1988)
 

*Chuck Lequereux transferred to Terrace Radio,
after close to 25 years in Smithers he never had enough seniority
to get Summer Holidays.  He was top man in Terrace Radio.
See the Terrace District Radio Section for his story.

**Breezy Ayers was the TWU Local 33 Convention Delegate
when I started in 1969, and held that position for many years.

After Breezy Ayers, and Doug Bateson retired,
It seemed like a lifetime that Andy Stalker was King
of the Terrace District Plant Seniority list.
