- Notes
- The Rev. Marilyn Hames, an Anglican deacon and Vice-President of Engineering for Kilborn Engineering Pacific Ltd., flew to the Kumtor Mine Site in Kyrgyzstan to represent her company, and assist an Orthodox priest, at a memorial service for 15 men killed in a helicopter crash in October 1995. In the end she conducted two inter-faith services, both with a Moslem holy man, and celebrated Communion with the Reserved Sacrament brought from her home parish of St. Philip's, Vancouver.
