West Van crews serenade centenarian who has a thing for firefighters


Everyone’s got a type. No surprise, “firefighter” is that type for many, even West Vancouver centenarian Maud Hill.


A small contingent of West Vancouver Fire & Rescue members serenaded Hill with a round of Happy Birthday to celebrate her 100th on Tuesday.Hill’s daughter Giselle Portenier said she marched into the local fire hall with a box of Tim Hortons doughnuts the day before and made her pitch.


“I rang the bell, and they opened the door and I said, ‘Hi there, I’m here to bribe you. Can I come in?” she said. “I explained to them that my mother is turning 100 and that she has not many joys in her life but she really loves watching TV and seeing a lot of good looking guys on the television. Every couple of minutes, my mother will say ‘There’s a good looking guy.’”
