PASSING OF M/CPL J.T. CONNOLLY (RET'D)
« on: October 16, 2006, 08:36:38 AM »

    Joseph Thomas Connolly of Stephenville NL , passed away in hospital in
    Cornerbrook on Friday Oct 13 , 2006 age 68 .
    Joe won the BAOR middleweight boxing crown , while serving with 1 RCR
    in 1964 . Joe was also very good in judo , and many other battalion
    sports . I would have to think , everyone in the battalion knew Joe .
    Joe was also a member of the RCR National Associaton .
    My deepest sympathy goes out to the family and friends of Joe .
    "PRO PATRIA"
     Condolences , donations , and further info , go to www.fillatre.ca
