About this episode
The Honourable Russell A Dixon shared with me, last August, his War Experience. He passed away a few days before Christmas. To me he was a Hero. And he came from a family of Heroes. His parents had served in WW1. His two brothers and his brother in law, all served in WW2. We owe them all so much. After the War, Russell went back to University and became a renowned Lawyer and a Judge in the Province of Alberta.
Thank you Russell for your Extraordinary life of service.
We will Remember You.
