Stan Phair #140 (Retired), The times we had in training as Class 14, at the Police College at 311 Greenfield Avenue and when we graduated and went our ways throughout the Metropolitan Toronto Police. Our class #14 photo will remain on Bernie Nadeau’s web site for all to see. You will be sadly missed and I will keep our memories forever. I will miss your celebration of life as, at that date and time, I will be with my surgeon at the Toronto General…. (Retired Sgt.) Nick Doran #36
