I regret that I only knew you for such a short time, but your personality, energy, dedication and humour will remain in my memory much longer.

Dedication and commitment are but a few words I can use to describe Vlad. He was a true champion for the environment. Vlad didn't just work for the environment he lived it. For him it wasn't a job but a lifestyle that he captivated with passion and binding obligation for the protection our beautiful province. His knowledge and engineering expertise was well known throughout the Ministry of Environment and our client groups. His willingness and enthusiasm to debate environment protection issues is historic. He inspired others within MOE to reach for higher standards. I will miss you Vlad, as a colleague and friend.

Vlad was one of the first people I met when I started working in Nanaimo 10 years ago. He was so welcoming to the "newbie" on the floor and I will remember our many conversations about water and the Gulf Islands!

With deep condolences to Cathy and family, Vlad was a special mentor and example of dedication to protecting the environment, commitment to public service, and generosity of his time and expertise to his workmates and many friends. We will miss his ready smile, quick humour, and visits to his always evolving garden sanctuary on Saltspring.

Vlad was energetic, knowledgeable and passionate about work, exercise and gardening. He had convictions in many issues, including global warming. He joked about his swimming pool experience. Sorry to hear his passing.

Vlad had such a wonderful presence in the EPD office. He had an ability to dedicate himself 100% to his work, while also maintaining positive relationships with all of his colleagues, taking the time to ask about families, gardens, or whatever other common ground he found with people. He was an invaluable source of information and kindness, and will be very missed.

Vlad's work and dedication to the protection of the environment was of the highest caliber, and his compassion, cheerful attitude and sense of humour could turn most any frown upside down.
