Ian MacInnes Obituary
On Oct. 24th Ian MacInnes, late of Vancouver and Abbotsford, left this life a grateful man with no regrets. Following early retirement from the Vancouver Stock Exchange in 1984, he enjoyed simple pleasures - improving his surroundings, keeping fit and retelling a good story. Ian was predeceased by his sister MaryLou in 2001 and leaves a brother Robert in Cobble Hill. Left to sorrow are his wife Tish, the Tichler family in Vancouver, and his many lifelong friends. A special thanks to the wonderful people at the Mission Hospice.

Ian, then with Elphick Securities, was the first person I worked for on the trading floor of the VSE (1968). In that rowdy place he stood out like the gentleman he was -- always helpful, invariably polite. As time went on and we became good friends, I learned to value Ian's wisdom and judgment. Working with him was a privilege, one for which I will always be grateful. Like all who knew him, I will miss him very much.
