Guest Speaker: David Richardson Classification Speech

 
President Nilam introduced Rotary Toronto Eglinton member David Richardson who gave his classification speech.  After obtaining degrees in finance and architecture David followed one of his strongest interests by embarking on a career in sales in the entertainment industry with Disney.  Following 13 years with Disney he started his own highly successful business packaging and marketing film and video in Canada and the US, and later internationally.  Now largely retired, he has joined Rotary to follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, and to give back to the community.
 
He was thanked by Lars, both for his huge contribution to RTE already and his fine presentation which, Lars explained, proved the point the many of the best lunchtime speeches come from the club’s own members.
