Pat, although we lost touch a number of years ago, I still thought of you and your accomplishments in Whistler. Our respective Dad's kept us in touch.
Your being in the Whistler Paid on call Fire department gave me the impetus to join Squamish and then the Naramata Paid on call departments. yes it was as enjoyable as you said it was when you were on the department.
My condolences to your family and hope you are driving to the hoop wearing those monogramed socks you wore at high school.
