Cheryl and family; Ian did indeed set the standards very high as a manager and I can certainly say that no one has come close yet. Ian brought you and the boys to work with him (not literally...) but anyone who worked with Ian heard the stories about you and Jonathan and Adam, he was so proud of his family. We all loved when you came to visit, of course the boys were very young and I'm sure don't remember all these strange people chatting with them. One of my favourite memories of Ian was at the building on Clarence and Queens, the accounts payable department was on the south end (and east side) of the floor, running in 2 rows of 3 people side by side. Ian was standing at the north end of the desks speaking with the team about something and so he was facing south. Colleen Morrison (now MacNeil) came walking behind up behind him (keep in mind she is probably only 5 feet tall) and she was imitating all of Ian's moves and moving her mouth like she was saying whatever he was saying. Althought the team did a great job of not laughing, Ian didn't miss a beat and told Colleen he could see her reflection in the windows that he was facing. Everyone had a good laugh, I'm not sure how long Colleen's face was red for...but it was one of those moments when you get to know your boss is human after all. Ian you will be missed dearly by many many people.
