Gordy Isacson , Sadly long time key employee of Malloch & Moseley Ed "Ike" Isacson passed away earlier this year (like sons Gordy & Garry ) he could run anything or drive anything in a Logging Camp . His son Gordy discovered a box of pictures he didn't know existed , and is sharing them with us .

Anyone know where Mike Fortin is now. Have not seen or heard his name since 1980.

Mike lives around Mill Bay . Through the transition of Malloch & Moseley , Forest Lands Industries , Hayes Forest Mike shared the road with us , switching from Off Highway trucks to Highway trucks along the way . I can't remember the exact year , but it must have been after 2000 , Mike's wife had health concerns and Hayes kept Mike working around their main yard at Duncan in case his wife needed him . I hope he is well , I left a message on his phone last year looking for pictures , he never returned the call . Another good Logging Truck driver slipping into oblivion .
