Son of the late Clarence and Venita Black and the youngest of their four children, all now deceased. Loving husband of 32 years to his wife and cherished companion Helen, and he will be sadly missed after many travels and life experiences together. He had a long and productive life as a Geologist, Public Service Executive, International Development Executive, and volunteer in many ways before and after retirement. He was active in the Burgesswood Association, Charter Member and Past President of the Probus Club, and participated in many ways in his Church.
