I had worked with Blaine back in the Centra Gas days at 444 St Mary’s. There were many wonderful and hilarious Christmas parties spent together with a great group of centra folks. Blaine always made you laugh and at times his dry sense of humour made you think and then laugh. The last time I saw Blaine was at a retirement party in 2018 and we laughed and reminisced and his smile will always be forever remembered. My sincere condolences Sharon, to you and your boys. - Posted by: Jana and John Baron (Jana worked with Blaine way back when!) on: Aug 28, 2021
