Ryall, Francis. Windsor, Ontario Born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, 1958-2015 A personal message to my family and friends. I come from a large family of five surviving siblings, two surviving parents and 5 nieces. I mustn"t forget my twin Moyan whom I love deeply. Backgrounds I would like to say to my nursing colleagues and students I gained a great deal of fulfillment in my life, along with some very special friends. One I must mention is Shelia McCabe whom not only was a very special friend but also a personal and professional mentor to whom I am forever grateful. In doing this I do not mean to ignore a large group of dedicated and wonderful people and friends who deserve mention here. Obituaries are an important way to thank the extraordinary bevy of friends and community who stepped up to care and complete tasks I could no longer do"family physician Dr. Day, all the oncologists, nurses, clerical staff and volunteers at the Cancer Clinic, Jackie Robert VON for your dedication professionalism and friendship, the amazing hospice team and all their staff and volunteers especially Dr. Darren Cargill, Brianne and Cheri.

My wee Kiera 6, with the gift of athleticism and strength of purpose, I have no worries you will get through life wonderfully. ENDING THE ORBIT Amanda. You must understand some of the things which made our love special to me. First and foremost we were friends long before we were lovers, additionally I was a far better man with you than I ever was alone.
