Jody, Courtney and David~
Dave was such an inspiration. He will continue to be a wonderful example of how much one man can do for a cause like his beloved Terry Fox Run. The size of his heart was only exceeded by his humour and ability to get the best from those who were privileged to know & work at his side. You got to learn from the best.
I shall send some red and white balloons into the skies like we did last year. A great sendoff for a great man.
