MESSAGE FROM GRAND AERIE
GRAND MADAM PRESIDENT-ELECT
The BEAK was voted
the Overall Grand
Prize Winner in the
2020 Grand Aerie
Bulletin Contest.
This was the first
entry in the
“Electronic” Category
for the Beak.
Congratulations!
Hello Brothers and Sisters. As I write this, it is mid- September of 2020. Conference finals are being decided in the NHL; classes have begun for children, (whether it is home schooling or classroom schooling they are returning to); and COVID-19 continues to be a consideration in what and how we do things in everyday life. The club has reopened with modified hours, services, and entertainment while, for
safety sake, our internal clubs have not begun their weekly activities. I am pleased to see the brothers and sisters who are attending their Aerie and Auxiliary meetings since they have begun again. At this point I offer my congratulations to Madam Joan Trotter and the entire Auxiliary Executive. What the remainder of 2020 holds for us is hard to say. As always, when it comes to operation of the Aerie, in an abundance of safety Aerie 2098 will continue to operate under the rules and regulations governing facilities such as ours regarding COVID19. At this moment I would like to acknowledge the work by the Trustees, Bar Staff, and Calgary 2098 members to get us to where we are today. Stay safe.
Fraternally yours,
Gord Shaw
Worthy President

NORMAN “CURLY” WALZ
September 11, 1931 – March 21, 2020
25 Year Member – Calgary 2098
It is with great sadness that the family of
Curly Walz announces his passing after a long
and courageous battle with cancer, at the age of 88 years.
Curly will be lovingly remember and dearly missed by his
best friend and partner Marj Schell. He is also survived by
his sister Marj Sholan of Winnipeg, Man; brother Fred Walz
of Forest, Ont; his nieces Donna (Ron) Simard of Australia,
Del (Rick) Bridges of Winnipeg, Man., nephews Cornell
(Cheryl) Sholan, Norman Sholan of Calgary, Bill (Karen) Walz
of Bowmanville, Ont. He is also survived by 3 stepchildren.
Curly was predeceased by his first wife Jean, his mother,
father, a niece Dee Sholan, and a stepson. Curly loved curling.
He celebrated his 50th Brier in Kingston, Ontario in March
2020, and was looking forward to attending his 45th Worlds,
in Scotland. Curly will be laid to rest in Queen’s Park
Cemetery.
Please raise a glass to Curly, and if friends or family desire,
donations may be made to STARS, High River Ag Society or
to a charity of their choice. The family would like to thank Dr.
Claire Temple-Oberle, for the wonderful care and
compassion for Curly during his battle with cancer.
