| Commemorating our Nicola Valley Artists Who Have Passed I lost my partner of over 30 years,Gordon Cockle, in January of this year. Although he was very well known in the community for his writings in the 90’s for the Merritt Herald and his own coffee paper, The Merritt Morning Mirror, there are lots of people who aren’t aware that he passed away. And many people who don’t know his creative work. |
