THINKING OF DAVID BROWN
The Institutional Advisors Team has lost a good friend.

Freelance artist, David Brown, has drawn some inspired, critical and timely cartoons for ours and other publications.
He suffered a severe fall in late April 2009 and passed away that year on June 12th where he lived for recent years in Orillia, Ontario.
Aged 77, David worked many decades in Hollywood and had returned to Ontario where he was constantly illustrating and crafting ideas. We have enjoyed using his work since 2002, and miss him as a friend.
The cartoon we enjoyed the most was published during the worst of the 2008 fall crash. When asked who he used as "models' for the "Upper Alagash Falls Quilting Bee", he responded that they were his "girlfriends" – with a laugh.
