Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Recently in my home community of Rae-Edzo, we had a passing of a well liked, hard-working family man, Mr. John Mackenzie. This man was struck down in the prime of his life. He had a family to watch grow, a family who enjoyed his company and who had everything to look forward to. Unfortunately, like many others in the North, he had cancer. As many know, this is a terrible ordeal for families and friends and, in many cases, the comfort of others makes life seem better.
Today, I would like to thank the honourable Minister, Stephen Kakfwi, for caring about the needs of the family by attending the funeral and providing his condolences to the family. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
