On Thursday, Januray 9th, our current E-Club President, Dr. Peter Denooy, passed away suddenly from complications of cancer surgery in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Gary Froude, a former E-Club of Canada One member, said this when he heard the sad news:
"Although I only had a few minutes of his time it was very easy to tell that he had Rotary in his heart.
Following the First People's tradition I have put the Canoe in the western doorway to ensure that the vessel is there for his voyage, and we ask for calm waters, the Candle is lit to lite his way and the Medicines are burning to clear the air for the journey."
Peter’s service is Tuesday, January 14 at 10 AM at
Trinity Funeral Home
10530-116 St NW
Edmonton, AB
Canada T5H 3L7
Dr. Peter Denooy was a veterinarian who moved to Canada immediately after graduating in the Netherlands in 1976.
