As we gather today to say goodbye to John, I’m reflecting on how much love John had for this province and its people. Today, we aren’t just saying farewell to a leader but to a friend. His wife, Ellie, and sons, Evan and Nate, remain in our thoughts and prayers.
So this is forty-something… 🙌🏼Thank you everyone for ALL of the birthday posts, emails, txts and calls 💕 lots of great things in store for this lap around the sun… grateful you’ll all be part of it!

My heart is heavy with the loss of our friend Dan.
My thoughts are with his family, and the many who love him.
I am grateful for our time working together for this community we love. I will miss his quick smile & easy laugh, our conversations, and his passion for community.
Rest well my friend.
The wandering piece of my heart is home tomorrow after 3 months of adventure! Just in time for a very Merry Christmas ❤️
