Visitors enjoyed the many varieties of daffodils on display at the Bradner Flower Show on the weekend, along with performances by musical guests and demonstrations of artistic skills by the Langley Weavers and Spinners and other organizations.
A daffodil memorial on Bradner Road near the Bradner community hall marked the passing of pioneer Richard "Richie" Fatkin last week.
Richie's father, Fenwick, started the Bradner Flower Show in 1928 after arriving here from Newcastle on Tyne, England, in 1912.
Fenwick had observed that conditions in Bradner were ideal for growing daffodils and started the area's first bulb business on their homestead.
Richie was the youngest of five sons born to Fenwick and Charlotte and he continued the family tradition of bulb cultivation with his wife, Audrey, at their Bradner acreage.
Since retiring from his management job at Aldergrove Super Valu Richie had devoted many hours to Bradner community causes and events.
