Former High River Town Councillor Tom Bragg passed away Tuesday, May 22.

Bragg, a three term Councillor, was a long time RCMP Officer who came to High River in 1976 after being transferred from the Fort Mcleod Detachment.

Long time friend and High River Lawyer John Andresen says Bragg was hooked by the town the first time he visited.

"He came through High River, took one look at the place and then told the RCMP people in charge of transfers that "High River was the place" that this is where he wanted to go. And he's had a connection with High River since then."

Bragg is survived by his wife Bernice and his Daughter Lisa.

Condolences can be sent to his family through Snodgrass Funeral Homes.
