00 Reward Offered From The Family Of Jolene Cote After 3 months of fund raising our family is now able to increase the reward we have offered for the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible Jolene's homicide. This reward has been funded by donations from family, friends, and strangers from across the province to the Jolene Cote Memorial Trust Fund, and by a major fund raising effort organized by a group of volunteers from Spruce Grove. Jolene touched the lives of many people, not only her family, friends, students, coworkers, and teammates, but many other people who never had the chance to really know her. The success of the fundraiser is another reflection on just how much of an impact her death has had on everyone who knew her and many people who didn't. What started as a posting of a fund raising idea on Facebook, quickly grew to a meeting of strangers around a kitchen table who volunteered countless hours, and then to a two night major fund raising event combining a comedy show and huge silent auction at the Horizon Stage in Spruce Grove. Kenny Valgardson, Graham Neil, Paul Sveen and Rex Hay graciously donated their talents for the show. Several hundred businesses from around the province donated to the silent auction. Countless individuals have made cash donations. In the midst of our family's grief, at a time when our lives are so shaken and we feel so much sadness, it is comforting to feel surrounded by love from so many people. We have so much gratitude for the overwhelming kindness, generosity & support of so many people and we thank-you from the bottom of our hearts. Our family is now raising the reward we have offered to $50,000.00 with the hopes that someone will decide to come forward with information about Jolene's homicide. We are pleading with anyone who has any information about Jolene's homicide to please call Crime Stoppers or the RCMP. Please think back to the evening of October 12, 2011 or the days to follow, any tip no matter how small may help. It has been 3 months since this horrible crime and we are still not able to begin to move on with our lives because we are constantly tortured by the thoughts of who would do this and why? We all deserve to know that whoever committed this crime is caught and not able to harm anyone else. Jolene's sister, Rhonda Berg 780-667-9446

Donations are still being accepted at any ATB to the Jolene Cote Memorial Trust Fund. This fund has been established to raise funds for the reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible for Jolene's

homicide and as a post secondary education fund for Jolene's two young children.
