I’m at our cottage in 90 degree weather but I decided to make the family a lemon meringue pie.   That brought a happy memory of making those for Al Puskas when he was weak in strength and appetite.   Such a lovable man!  Hope Fran is having a relaxing summer somewhere.   

Dear Fran, 
I recently learned of Al's passing from Barbara Moore.  I have written John and I wanted to write you, also.  I am so sad to hear this news and I offer my deepest condolences.  In 1970 I was in the opera "The Little Sweep" (I sang Juliet) and John was my little sweep.  I have retired from the Artistic Director position at the Canadian Children's Opera Company, but I am grateful to Barbara Moore for letting me know about Al. We are now living in Austin, TX, but please know that I will be with you on September 30 in my heart and mind.  With sincere condolences, Ann

Dear Fran,
I will miss Al as our nicest neighbour and one of my favorite tennis players.
In a recent conversations with him, I talked about the new $1 billion soccer stadium under construction in Budapest named after his world famous cousin Ferenc Puskas.
He was pleased to know about it.
With my sincere condolences,
Tibor

Dear Fran and family, with love and concern,
We wish to express our great appreciation for having the opportunity and privilege of sharing our wonderful family relationship for most of our lives.  Al Puskas radiated a high degree of passion, commitment and courage when handling his many physical challenges in extending his share of life. For that important role, we say "Thanks Al" 

Maragret and Alex Gyemi & family

Dear Fran and family,

Because of such fond memories sharing time with your family at St. George's children's choir many years ago, I want to express my sincere condolences.

We are so sorry to loose another CS30 sailing friend and the RCYC member.

Dear Frances and Family, Barb and I were deeply saddened to hear that Al has passed away.  We will miss his presence at the Royal Canadian Yacht Club and his congeniality and pleasant enthusiasm for discussing our respective sailing experiences, going all the way back to racing against one another in Albacore's in the early 70's.  He is often in our thoughts as a result of his sage advice - "never sell Shibumi".  We will, unfortunately, miss the Memorial Service, since it coincides with the Last Mast Blast at RCYC, but please know that we will be there in thought and prayer.  Our sincerest of condolences, John and Barbara Gambles

Hi John and David;
I had a pleasant chat with your father a few years ago at St. George's church.  He was the greeter that day and I recognized his name.  He was very proud of you and your siblings.
Wishing you and your families well.
Sincerely,

John (Ed) Bawden (UCC '80)

Dear Fran and family:  Francois and I send you our sympathy for the loss of your dear Al. He treated four generations of my family - grandparents Dr. Charles & Jean Clark; parents Tim & Joan Clark; brother Philip and his daughters Miranda & Courtney and of course Francois and me. We loved his sense of humour and his sincere care for his patients, who quickly became his friends. We still laugh recalling the evenings that we spent together attending local dog obedience classes. He will be missed by all who knew him.

Dear Fran, Anna, John, David, Jane and Families,
My heart is very heavy for the loss of this Wonderful man. He was a role model, a perfectionist, a teacher and friend.  And what a great laugh!!
My life has been influenced by him in many ways. I will miss him very much, but I am grateful for many lovely memories. I will keep them in my heart forever!
Sincerely and with love,
 Borah xo
