A year ago this week, I underwent surgery to remove an ovarian tumour at Foothills Medical Centre. In no shape to travel, I missed the @CFHOFandM ceremony at Grey Cup. Today, I received the plaque via Dave Dickenson and the @calstampeders

John Sexmith was such a kind, witty, caring presence at practice and in the press box. A life cut way too short and a life fully lived through wins, losses and everything in between.
A sad announcement from our team. Underneath John Sexsmith's jovial demeanour was a steely resolve to give 110% in his fight against prostate cancer. For over a decade he won countless battles, but on Friday, succumbed to the disease. John was just 63. https://t.co/Tn3rvyj3bH

My condolences to @drdagly family and the masses of folk he saved, comforted, taught and inspired in his short time on this earth. A true 🇨🇦 unsung hero. Ride on Doc. 🩺🚵.
Though the encroaching darkness fills me with regret, I am comforted by autumn’s light, and enthralled by my path home.

Amen, Spec. @CarrieTait
Make no mistake, @CarrieTait is the Most Valuable Journalist in Alberta right now. Anyone who wonders re: the role of the journo, ask yourself: Is anyone else ferreting out this much corruption in our AB govt?

As @tedwyman always said, I can’t believe they pay us to write about sports. Ted had it so right. What a wonderful life - made so much more wonderful when I finally realized that it is indeed a team sport.

Thank you for helping us celebrate a moment I thought passed us by. With a clean bill of health, I’m so grateful for everyone who helped our family in the last year.

"It wasn’t about being the life of the party for him, he just wanted to be at the party. And his greatest traits, at least from my perspective, were his daily ‘can you believe they’re paying us to do this?’ outlook on work..." My deepest condolences to everyone breaking inside.
Tough one today for many of us with the passing of Ted Wyman, a long-time friend and colleague. Indulge me, if you will, with a quick story that highlights some of the qualities that made him such a good buddy… A few years ago when I was still at the Freep we were both on a Jets

Hall: Justin McInnis thrives in season of change: Before the opening kickoff, before every game, Justin McInnis takes a knee and engages in a private conversation inside his head. https://t.co/pRhGUEym4F via @vickihallch
