Desmond was a true colleague and friend when we car pooled during my tenure at University of Manitoba from 1989 to 1993. He was a dignified and esteemed teacher. Des and Elizabeth also introduced Jennie and I to Winnipeg which he dearly loved. - Posted by: Franklin Stein (Colleague at U of Manitoba) on: Feb 20, 2020
