Scuba fatality off Whytecliff Park |“—~<

by PAT RICH

A Richmond woman
is missing and
presumed drowned
after she went scuba
diving with ai com-
panion at Whytecliff
Park in West Van-
couver, on Saturday.

An RCMP diving team
searched in vain Saturday
and Sunday for the body of
Rosemary Alice Ness, aged
21, of 4111 Francis Road in
Richmond.

A West Vancouver Police
Spokesman says ‘the
department received a call
for assistance at 12:26 p.m.
on Saturday.

He said Ness was diying
with Trevor Budworth, aged
22, also of Richmond, in or
around the underwater park
at Whytecliff. .

Both were relatively new
divers, who are supposed to

have recently completed a
diving course.

‘They became separated,
and he surfaced and called

for help,’ the spokesman
said.

It appears Ness got into
some sort of difficulty, the
spokesman said, but he
added they did not know at
what depth or at what time
Ness got into trouble.

‘We had the (coastguard)
hovercraft and the RCMP
notified, and they searched
the area.’
