October 14, 2022 at 4:30 pmOh Captain! My Captain! A giant amongst men, his commitment to community and the CFA was extraordinary, his service supreme, his passion, care, and tenacity an example to legions. Victoria has lost a giant, the CFA it’s strongest defender, our communities their strongest champion. We were so blessed to have had him in our lives. Heartfelt condolences to Gay, Lisa, Millie, Graham and Boyd, and partners, may your memories lift and carry you all.

Not to mention a talented artist and loving family man.
