Statements

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT 7-17(3): PASSING OF RALPH LESLIE CREED

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I’d like to acknowledge the recent death of Ralph Leslie Creed, a long-time Yellowknife resident and a Frame Lake constituent.

Ralph moved to Yellowknife in 1981 with his young family. He worked at the mill at Giant Mine for 19 years and at the Workers’ Safety and Compensation Commission until he retired when he then worked as a stay-at-home grandpa.

Ralph was devoted to his family but also to his community. He gave back to his community through volunteering, particularly as a member of the board of directors for the Northlands Condominium Corporation.

My condolences and those of this House go out to Ralph’s family and friends. Thank you.
