CHILLIWACK – For nearly three decades, Betty Coleman has been a force for good as an essential member of the Chilliwack Crime Prevention volunteers.
The inescapable joy she shares with visitors to the downtown Chilliwack Community Policing office when she greets them at the front desk or on the phone was also on display for the walking start of Thursday’s Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics of BC at Peach Park along the Vedder Rotary Trail.
To get the fundraising walk off on the right foot, Coleman, a Special Olympian, shared the torch with RCMP Sergeant Krista Vrolyk, who calls Coleman a dear friend and a valued member of the Community Policing Office.
“Betty has been a volunteer with Chilliwack Crime Prevention for the past 29 years,” Vrolyk said. “She volunteers weekly for us working the phones and front counter of our downtown community policing office on Wellington Avenue. She is so positive and enthusiastic and brings so much joy and happiness to everyone around her.”
