Arthur loved his family and was a proud member of the Canadian Armed Forces where he served with the (2) PPCLI. He often spoke of them along with his discovery and practice of aboriginal beliefs.
Arthur suffered a lifetime of hardship. He fell victim to oxycodone as prescribed by his physician following a near fatal traffic accident. Then contracted HIV and later COVID. He could fight no more

May he rest in peace. He will be missed.

I’d like to acknowledge the nursing staff at the Royal University Hospital ICU for making Arthur comfortable during his last days.
