Just received word that Doug, VE4BX just passed away
Gwen was with dad this afternoon about 5:00PM.
He suddenly sat up and said "come on, lets go!"
He proceeded to get out of bed and collapsed.
The head nurse said he had stopped breathing and was unconcious,
but when they placed him back in bed he began to breathe again.
He never regained conciousness and very quietly stopped breathing
about 10:45 PM Satuday night Aug 29 2009.
Dad was once called the AM voice of Canada,
now VE4BX is now the AM voice of heaven.
