Wilf's intellectual and spiritual legacy continues and by virtue of the Internet and the love of friends and family (I can see him smiling) he will live on.

I offered mass for him this morning and will remember both Wilf and you in my prayers. So many memories over the years of both of you fill my mind...of church and school, of work and leisure, and of watching our children grow up together in Camrose. May the Lord of Mercy wrap His loving arms around you and hold you close to His heart. Patti Good Ottawa, Ontario Christine: I was so sorry to hear the sad news of Wilf’s passing.

Wilf was always such an inspirational person and had the most wonderful laugh of anyone I know. It was so nice to see you recently at Erin's wedding and I'm glad I had the chance to speak with Wilf and you again after so many years. Such a lovely man. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I met Wilf over one year ago now, and though I knew him for but a short time, his very brave and candid approach to his situation was inspiring. It is my deep regret that I did not have longer to get to know him, but I am very glad to have met him.

I feel blessed to have met Wilf, little over a year ago. The time was joyous, and he imparted much wisdom to myself as an emerging game designer. Right away I knew I had encountered a great spirit, someone every bit as wonderful as the person described here, and more. He will be missed by many in the gaming community. Even in his final years he continued to inspire, create and strengthen bonds between strangers, and welcomed any and all into his kind and gentle presence. I'm grateful to have known him. Tom Sarsons Christine and Family,
