History
Eva Anderson joined the Treasury Department (now the Finance Department) of Burnaby Municipal Hall in 1949, located on Kingsway near Edmonds at that time. She was well-liked in the department, often complimented for her "soft, Scottish smile." She retired in 1967 following the move to the new hall located on Grandview-Douglas Highway (now Canada Way). Eva passed away in Burnaby on April 22, 2006, at the age of 87.
