J'ai été très triste d'apprendre le décès de M. McKechnie. J'ai connu M. McKechnie au CHSLD de Saint-Bruno où je suis bénévole et j'ai trouvé un homme plein de tendresse envers sa chère Elizabeth et un véritable gentilhomme envers tous les gens qui l'entouraient. J'offre mes plus sincères sympathies à sa famille,

Sad news I had the 'pleasure' of working with David in the Shibuilding business over many years. I was normally on the other side of the table and as such received the benefit of his experience on many occasions.
I owe a lot to the hard lessons learned from David, who I looked upon as a friend. He was truly a giant in the business.
The Canadian Shipbuilding Industry has lost a great deal with Dave's passing.
My sincere condolences.

My sincere condolences for your loss. I have many vivid and fond memories of Mr.McKechnie as my soccer coach when I was young. In recent years, I was very grateful for the many hours that he spent talking to my mother in the Centre D'Acceuil in St.Bruno. Our family's thoughts are with you.
