River City Racers Speed Skating Club members have many, many fond memories of Lisa Van Shie-Wynne, a founding club member and one of the original speed skating coaches. Lisa passed away peacefully in her Lac Le Jeune home on Saturday, April 24th after a courageous 8-year battle with cancer. She was 44 years old.
Lisa was a Kamloops medical doctor and a World Master Cross Country skier and passionate about family, sports, community, and healthy living. She taught us so much and we will all miss her.

It was taken in 2005 in front of the skating oval on Lac Le Jeune with some of the original River City Racers. This was the club's first long track oval and was created through the efforts of Lisa and her husband Andrew.
The service will be held at the Holy Family Parish on Monday, May 3rd at 1:00pm.
