Rodney was a master electrician and has worked as an electrician for numerous companies around Alberta, BC and NWT. He was transferred to Drumheller in July 1981 working as an area manager for an electrical firm. Then in 1983 decided to start his own oilfield electrical business. The business became incorporated March 3, 1983. Rod's wife Norma and son Michael have helped him to have a very prosperous business with numerous clientele. Rodney was quite spontaneous - 5 -- 00 a.m. waking everybody up to say we are going to Banff for a swim.

      It was Rodney that passed away in 2002, not Raymond. Raymond is still very much alive.
