Dear Editor:
Re: City loses longtime biz owner, The Record, Aug. 17.
Thank you so much for the article about the passing of Doug Pavan. He was such a good person, businessman and kind friend.
He cheerfully repaired my glasses time after time and found the best way to treat my serious eye condition. His service, shop and kindness are irreplaceable.
Here is a poem I wrote in honour of him. Today is what we have.
That's it. To share, to care. To laugh, to live. Forget the worry. Don't be in a hurry.
Feel deeply. Love completely. Today is what we have. Live it.
