I rise today to recognize and congratulate Captain
Leslie Cutler of Ramea on his retirement from the Marine
Transportation Services division of the Department of
Transportation and Works.
Captain Cutler has worked for over twenty-five years
with the provincial ferry service and he will be sorely
missed. He has been very well respected by his peers,
his colleagues, and the travelling public.
In addition to his duties as Captain - most notably
of the Gallipoli, which operates between
Burgeo, Ramea and Grey River - Mr. Cutler has been
heavily involved in volunteer activities in his home
community of Ramea.
He is currently a lay reader with the church, a
volunteer fireman, a member of the Ramea Community
Co-op, a member of the Health Services Committee and
head of the Orangeman’s Lodge in Ramea. He is married
to the former Millie Pink and they have two sons and one
daughter.
There will be a retirement dinner for Captain Cutler
at the Four Winds in Ramea this evening where he will be
honoured by his colleagues from the Department of
Transportation and Works, family and friends.
Mr. Speaker, I ask all members of this House to join
with me in extending congratulations to Captain Leslie
Cutler on his retirement. All the best to Captain Cutler
and his family, and I wish you many years of a healthy
and happy retirement.
Thank you. |
