"He affected a lot of artists. He influenced a lot of collectors. He was an iconic figure who had a real strong sense of place and time and who made a special contribution, not only in New Brunswick but to the Canadian art scene," he said.
"He was relaxed, he was kind, generous. He was a true lover of the salmon, and a great respect for the landscape and for the wilderness. A true environmentalist, and just a very kind, gentle, and passionate, and humanist person,"
-Eric Riordon, painter and friend of the artist.
