Barry, I am not questioning you or anything else but I am sure it is Glen Steward that is behind Steen, I don't remember Bob Watkins. But I do remember Dick Howard, but he was not with us that day.

Greetings all.

Some of you will remember Glen Stewart as a quiet, polite, unassuming guy who was always ready to help out anytime. A hard worker regardless the task and a great team player willing to play along with any trick that came his way. Always smiling. a great guy to have around. You should also remember the odd scoot around the parade square in London with his Norton which, no doubt, brought undue attention to RSM BC Robinson on more than one ocassion, I'm sure.

Glen remustered to Postal Clk in the late 70s and ended posted in North Bay where he took his release from the CF.  In about 1994 he was diagnosed with form of cancer that eventually took him to that big Parade Square in the sky around 95/96.

A sad day indeed.......

Hope this helps.....Cheers....Eli

 A few years back I was at a concert at Parkwood Hospital in the Vets wing in London and Ezra was there in a wheelchair, he was in a permanent seniors moment. I remember in 1967, RT Walsh and I were having a beer (or two) at Bn Hq in the Kyrenia pass when Ezra flaked out in a urinal and tumbled down the mountain. He had to spend some time in the Austrian field hospital. His descent down the slope was a prelude to the Cirque de Soleil.
