I had the privilige of working with Bob d'Esterre for a number of years when he was Chair of The Alberta Board of Industrial Relations.
I will cherish the memory of this fine gentleman in always providing an example to his colleages of principled leadership together with fairness and equity. I especially miss our frequent working lunches at his home with Dorothy.
My condolences to the family.
