Thank you to all those who purchased a #LimitedEdition bottle of #FinalSalute, & also to #TumbleweedDistillery for generously donating $20 of each bottle sold, to #MemorialRibbon!
They're down to the last 30 of 1000! If you were waiting, now’s the time to purchase your own bottle of special whisky!

We're proud that a bottle of #FinalSalute christened the new @vancouverpd.bsky.social vessel, #RGMcBeathVC!
Robert McBeath earned a VC for bravery.
Cst McBeath then served @cityofvancouver.bsky.social, before he was killed in the line of duty @ 24yrs.
The vessel is a fitting tribute. #MemorialRibbon

At a #BCLEM event this past weekend that #MemorialRibbon attended, young Isa presented #PPOMRS Board Director Jim Pyke with $137.75 in cash.

She earned this by selling hair clips & hair elastics that she made!

We're so impressed with her initiative and compassion for others.💙
