Making a rare appearance at the Merritt Insulator Show was Mark Lauckner. This was Mark's 3rd Merritt show, and he always brings something special. This time he brought his wife Leanna and young daughter Stella. Listed by order of height, is Stella Lauckner, 14 months old, at her first Insulator Show. Next tallest is the proud daddy, Mark Lauckner, and beside him is Dave Rosychuk of Vancouver, B.C.

Stella stole the show with her sunny disposition and winning smile, and I hope she'll soon be back to Merritt with her parents. It was great to see Mark again, and to meet his family.
