URSULA ILIEN ALATARIEL JOY

Our Beautiful Daughter Ursula Passed Away on September 6th, 2018. She was 7-1/2 years old and has been fighting a rare form of brain cancer since she was a baby. This picture of her was taken 4 years ago but shows her spirit beautifully.

We are beyond heartbroken and we miss her every moment of every day.

In Memorium: Ursula Ilien Joy

The Family Network for Deaf Children and Ursula’s family has set up a Family Deaf Camp fund in Ursula’s name. The aim is to financially support families in need to enable them to attend future Family Deaf Camps on Hornby Island - because Ursula was partially deaf and SHE LOVED her time at Family Deaf Camp!

To donate: www.fndc.ca/donation/

(type Ursula’s name in the “in memory” of section).
FNDC will let the family know of your donation.

Our Open Retail Shop has been Forced to Close its Doors. A Lovely Beer and Wine Store will replace us at our Previous Location.

We will Be on Hiatus for a Year or Two, while we recover from this sudden move and work towards our dream of Building a Gypsy Caravan Bookstore. The image above, by our friend Charles van Sandwyk from the immortal children's book THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS, is a good illustration of our future plans.

Meanwhile, you can check out our on-line bookstore also located on Hornby island,
