 In Memory, Reg.#21512, Cst. Archille O.M. Lepine

'Friends Not Forgotten'

Reg.#21512, Constable 'Archie' Lepine was posted to Patullo Bridge Detachment, 'E' Div. in 1962. He was driving his police motorcycle on the King George Highway near Whalley, BC when a car turned unexpectedly in front of him.

Cst. Lepine died as a result of the injuries which he received.

A couple years later I was chosen for the 'Bike' Course in Cloverdale, BC. I recall that our Chief Harley Davidson Instructor, S/Sgt. Harvey often reminded us of the unforseen dangers which bike
riders must expect especially in heavy traffic such as the Lower Mainland experiences.

Soon, it will be forty-nine years since Cst. Lepine died.

'Maintain Our Memories'
