Remembering Gary Michaels who left us on Feb. 26, 2020. R.I.P. Gary https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=915724067221511&set=pb.100063517778573.-2207520000

REMEMBERING GARY MICHAELS - February 26th

Four years ago, on February 26th, we lost a remarkable individual, Gary Michaels. He was much more than one of the orginal on-air personalities at CFGO, but he was a mentor, a co-worker, a friend, a husband, a father, and a grandfather. Gary was a person who connected with everyone around him, always ready to lend a hand whenever he was needed.

His impact was felt throughout his long radio career in both Ottawa and Smiths Falls. He was a constant source of support for the communities he lived in, never turning down an opportunity to help, no matter how small the event or fundraising program.

Today, we remember Gary not just for his talent and charisma, but for his unwavering commitment to his community. His legacy continues to inspire us all.

👉As a tribute to Gary's remarkable community involvement, we urge everyone to nominate his name for the commemorative naming of an Ottawa municipal park, facility, or street. This nomination aligns with the City's requirement that the nominated individual has 'demonstrated excellence, courage, or exceptional service to the community.'

👉👉Let's honor Gary's memory by ensuring his name lives on in a place that reflects his values and dedication to the community. To nominate Gary, please visit https://engage.ottawa.ca/commemorativenaming

The last surviving member of The Band has left us. Godspeed Garth Hudson.

Garth Hudson, whose fantastical approach to the organ and virtuosity on a panoply of other instruments lent a distinctive touch to the roots-rock of the Canadian-American group the Band, has died. He was 87. https://bit.ly/42mheP2
