    Left Cranberry for Nipawin,SK in 86 when dad's job was transferred. Finished high school in Nipawin in 88. Went to the U of M and failed out of Engineering. Returned to Nipawin and stewed in the back of the DQ for a school year. Entered a course at SIAST in Moose Jaw in Surveying Engineering. Met up with Jason Bjierke as he was going to school there too. Graduated in 1993 and started working for a Land Survey company in Yorkton. I have been there full time since. They've already put up with me for 13 years and counting. Speaking of putting up with me, I started dating Louise just before going to school in MJ. After eight years of a long distance relationship, she agreed to actually marry me in 1998. As an added bonus, she also agreed to have children by me!!!! We had Allison in 1999, and Caitlin in 2001. We currently live in Yorkton and most of my work is in the oilpatch in S.E. Sask, so I'm based out of Yorkton.

  • E-MAIL: Angela Lavalee - Angela's living in Winnipeg and these are her own words....
    Not a graduate of 1989, but I remember and know a majority of the graduates. I attended F.C.I. for four years, not including all the weekends before I actually attended. I must have embarrassed my auntie Sherri Lavallee (Forward) with my candid, excruciating, then, 12 year old attitude…sorry Sher. So assuming that most remember me, uuheemmm…I thought I would brief all you eminent and invigorating individuals on my life.

    I am 27 years old and I currently live in Winnipeg, Manitoba. I am a single mother of 3 beautiful children (Season 9, Kyrel 6 and Kiana 4). I am the Executive Assistant at Hobbs and Associates, which is a management consultant firm and a greater part of our clients are First Nation. I am also a part-time U of W student who is taking a Communications course and majoring in Public Relations. Life is treating me great, although I still did not win that 10 million dollars that I anticipated would be in my bank account by now….ha ha ha…hope you all have a PLEASURABLE time at the reunion. Peace!!!!

    I am married and have been for the past 12 years to Duane Forward and have a 12 year old son named Brayden. I am currently posted in Winnipeg and have been traveling quite a bit since I got there. I'm hoping to be there for the next year but not expecting to be as my husband is also military.
