As his regular contributions have reached around the world, I think I speak for many of us, at the far reaches of the planet, in saying "He will be missed"
We thank you Catherine, for time with your Dad.

I absolutely will. Thank you Stuart for the photos. Dad is the one in the last photo in the red shirt and ball cap, leaning on the vehicle.

We will be holding a service to celebrate my dad's life on Wednesday, October 2 at 1 pm at Our Lady of Fatima Parish, 153 Woodroffe ( at Byron) in Ottawa, reception to follow. Dad always loved to be early, so the family will be there at 12:30 to greet everyone.

Edit to add: Reception will be at the Westboro Masonic Temple, Churchill at Byron immediately after.
