It is with great sadness that we note the passing of Gerry Furney, who was a founding Director of the Regional District of Mount Waddington in 1966 and served on the Board until his retirement from public life in 2014; 28 years as a Director of which he was Chair for 10 years. During his lengthy years of public service he initiated innumerable projects that have had a lasting benefit to the Town of Port McNeill and the Regional District. We will greatly miss his wisdom, humour and steadying advice.
