Hi Graham, Hopefully you found a volunteer to obtain the Death Registration for you - rather than ordering same. 1.R.R. does mean Rural Route. 2.Perhaps re posting - with the name of the Deceased - as well - the Name of the Grocery store if known - would help others determine whether the store still stands. 3.Mapquest - showing the possible location on Hillcrest road. http://www.mytelus.com/maps/map.do?city=GIBSONS&province=BC&postal=&lat=49.408589&long=-123.507373&scale=24000&poilat=49.408589&poilong=-123.507373&street=[662-684]%20HILLCREST%20RD Location of Gibsons B.C.
