Nunakput

The community of Tuktoyaktuk has lost four members since January. Today I would like to give the following condolences:

To Angus and Evelyn Cockney, mother Stella, great-grandparents Adam and Annie Emock for the loss of their great-granddaughter Hailey Cockney.

To Ivy Mangelanu and grandparents Charine and Clarence for the loss of Carmela Jade Mangelanu.

To Willie and Dora, Cathy and family for the passing of Rodney Kangegana.

To Tuktoyaktuk’s Inavalik elder, Joseph Sumic Pokiak, who passed away this week at age 94 years old. Condolences to Marie, Johnny, Pearl and family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with them.

In closing, I would like to wish my wife’s grandmother, Dela Bourke, all the best. She is in hospital in Fort Smith. Our thoughts and our prayers are with her.
