Tricia was one of a kind. She was a good friend right from the time we met sixty years ago at the University of Saskatchewan residence. We were roommates in a basement suite and later an attic. So many shared experiences at a significant time of life. Bob and I remained friends with Tricia throughout the years and always enjoyed our visits with her on our trips west. We always had to be sure to sign the guest book and visit The Black Sheep. We had marathon phone calls to keep in touch and solve the problems of the world. Nobody could tell a story like Tricia. We will miss her very much.
