Met him once in his store years ago and thought at the time that he was a class A person the type that is in very short supply in the world. He will truly be missed.

Without him, many would have gone without. He was a blessing for all the immigrants and others who needed an extra hand.
My mother is a huge fan of him and has told me how important he was to so many.
He will definitely be missed by generations of people.

wow he did do a lot for toronto, I never knew the Royal Alexandria was owned by him, and that he saved it from demolition, it's a beautiful building.
