Girvan was a 'gentleman' from the first time we played together as children. Mary and Sam were good friends of my parents, Verda and Fred (Glencoe). By coincidence just last week I was 'home' and, as driving past Fox Brook Road, asked about Girvan, having lost track of him years ago. Although I was very saddened to see his obituary, so soon thereafter, it was apparent that his life was full of sharing his gentle manner, intellect, wit and decency; a life well-lived. My condolences, to Joan and his entire family. Nancy MacDonald (Glencoe and Guelph).
