Missing good people

Retirement is good but I find I have developed a mid-afternoon habit of enjoying a treat I would usually regard as really special. I like to prepare special cup of coffee, very strong, with a hint of chocolate syrup, stirred up with a teaspoon of ice cream and a shot of whisky . If that wasn’t enough, I like to add a nice piece of chocolate tuxedo cake or apple pie. Lucky me that I have good taste for things that taste good.

I was saddened to hear last week of the death of well=known TV anchor Lloyd Robertson. I say that because I was able to meet him a few times while I was at CTV. He was a true gentleman, a super nice guy. I can’t say I got to know him well but each time we met he was kind enough to remember my name and ask he about the newsroom in Timmins. He just had a way of making everyone feel important while he was chatting with people.
