Photograph of a staff Sergeant J.F. Gregory and Mrs. Gregory (pictured) were guests of honor at a no-host party Friday evening in the Rod and Gun Club. It was staged by their friends as a fairwell to the Gregory's who have been stationed in Kitimat since the days when the RCMP barracks and living quarters were temporary houses at the smeltersite.

James McNay was born in Ayrshire, Scotland, on January 31, 1907. Between 1951 and 1953, he worked in the payroll department for Alcan. He had to leave his wife Effie and his two young daughters, Margaret and Diane, aged 6 and 5 in 1951, at home in Surrey, B.C., during his 3-4 month stints in Kitimat. To fill some of his free time and show his family where he was and what Kitimat was like, he spent many hours walking in the area with a 35mm Kodak camera. He photographed the scenic beauty of the area and parts of the construction of both the smelters and the town. He died in Surrey on August 7, 1983.
