[Alex Blair (RIP)]

I was saddened to learn of Georges death..It was last November 11Th,2005 that I spent some time with George ,visiting with him in The Ottawa General Hospital...He had suffered a stroke the previous week and was in hospital for Rememberance Day...a meaningfull day for George and I was proud to say he was my friend...
My condolences to his family and especially to his son Ron ,who spent so much time with his father in the waning years..
We have all lost a true Canadian hero...
Rest In Peace...
