veteran passes
Just saw this in local web news that one of Canada's last surviving Great War veterans passed away on Wednesday. He volunteered at age 15.
William Procter lived at a care facility in Enderby, B.C. He was 106 years young. He went skydiving for his 100th birthday and was still driving his car at 102. He never missed a Remembrance Day ceremony from 1919 until this year.
I believe there are only three survivors left now in Canada.
