Hi Guys....just a note to let you know Boyd isn't doing too well these days.

He can use all the positive Karma we can throw his way.

Done and done. I have been getting messages from Sue, it appears that he has one last type of treatment to beat this cancer! Let's hope it works!

Bruce and Paul, I've swapped a few PM's with Boyd. I think his last one to me was June 19th but he hasn't replied to the last one from about a week ago. I know Victoria got an email from Susan not long ago. I know he said he was going to get the drug every two weeks and may take up to a year. He and Susan are in our prayers.

Not sure how many BC Bolters have been getting text messages from Sue, but I am so sad to pass on the message that Boyd passed away tonight. This is too sad and I don't have the words to express how much he will be missed. Thoughts go out to his friends and family in the passing of such a wonderful, fun loving person.

Thanks for passing along the news...

I have not logged on here in over a year but wanted to let everyone know Boyd had passed away earlier this evening and to extend my sincere condolences to his wife Sue who remained at his side, even sleeping in his hospital room till the very end.

Boyd was a hell of a great guy, always the first one to offer to help, quick with a laugh and will be missed by all of us... so glad we had the chance to see him one last time a little over a week ago and to enjoy one last BBQ with him...

Rest In Peace, Boyd!

Gonna miss Boyd ! He was a good friend.
I think Sue is planning a memorial sometime. It would be great to see the BC Bolters well represented.
