The property had turkeys and cows, etc. and was close to Tommy Irvine's house. He attended Douglas Road School. He served in WWII and married Shirley Cole (donor) in 1949. He worked with BC Electric right out of the army, first driving the trams until they stopped running then he drove buses and then in 1962, he worked in the rail yard. The couple moved to Coquitlam in the 1950s and had four daughters. Werner (Ollie) was a volunteer who worked on the restoration of the 1233 Interurban on display at the Burnaby Village Museum.
