My former boss, partner, friend, mentor Mr. Karro (Harold Karro) passed away peacefully recently. He is survived by his wife, 3 children, 2 grandchildren and 1 great grand child.

Mr. Karro was a loving and honorable family man who played his part as a grand father, father, husband, businessman and human being with devotion and diligence.

I have fond memories of Mr. Karro and his favorite statements:

- do not dilly dally (diddle and daddle as he would put it)
- what you can do today, don't leave it for tomorrow
- count your blessings
- think positive
- give good service and go the extra mile.

Although none of these statements were original they had an impact on me because of his conviction and the frequency with which he used them.

Mr. Karro played a significant role in my success in Vancouver. In fact his contribution still lives on as we still operate two businesses that he founded.

He was a very generous man and gave of himself freely and willingly. He embodied the message of "The Power of Giving" beautifully!

Thank you, Mr. Karro, for being 'you'. We will not see a like of you again.

May your soul rest in eternal peace. Amen
