Biographie de l'auteur

Born in Ottawa in 1940, I graduated from Nepean High School in 1959, and from Carleton University in 1965. In 1965, I began a teaching career at Rideau High School in Ottawa.

Having obtained her father's approval, that February, on snow- shoes and in knee-deep snow in the chapel at Camp IAWAH (near Westport, Ontario), I asked her to marry me. To my delight, she agreed !
