We lost one of the greats. Graham Greene was not only an actor but a trail blazer. He opened doors for so many of us Natives. I'm proud to say that the very first pilot I ever acted in was with Graham Greene. The pilot was never picked up but I get to say that I got to work with one of the greats.

You will be missed, Bruce McCurdy. I was looking forward to taking you out for lunch on my next trip to Edmonton and I waited too long. You were an example of the best of #Oilers fandom and an exemplar Edmonton citizen. Rest in peace and condolences to your family and friends.
