City loses one of its’ longest serving Councillors

Family, Community, and Commitment!

That is how former Quesnel Mayor Mary Sjostrom says she will remember her former colleague and longtime City Councillor and friend Peter Couldwell who passed away on Wednesday night.

Sjostrom says there are many fond memories including when Couldwell received a BC Community Achievement Award in Victoria in part for the auctioneering that he also did…

Couldwell served 20 years as a Councillor from 1991 to 2011.

He was 77.
