Once upon a time, I went in to see a patient, and I recognized his son as the writer and radio host Stuart McLean. He was down-to-earth and attentive to his father, and when the visit was over, he offered a ticket to a show. There were none nearby, but one was going to be in my parent's hometown, and my mom used my referral to go to the show. This is proof, and a big thrill!
His podcast, The Vinyl Café, was one of few regulars, and I have a set of books on my shelf. It is a great loss, but a remarkable body of work that we will be going back to for a long time.
We will miss you, Stuart. You were a marvellous generous hilarious man!
