A truly sad day.

My daughter Tian, who is now 8, caught the Vinyl Cafe bug when she was 6.  She would listen on occasion when my wife and I were parked on CBC in the house or when we were in transit in the car. In the last year whenever Stuart was on the radio, TIan would say, "Stuart Mclean," and we would need to sit in the car until his segment was done, making us late on more than one occasion. A sweet way to share Canada with my daughter. When Tian heard of Stuart's passing she was deeply saddened.

I am sitting here with her now as I write this, and she wishes to share this sentiment:

"I loved his stories, and I like  the stories he wrote about the Vinyl Cafe and I will really miss his stories."

Amen to that.

Tian and Victor
