More Memories of the Lake

Greg “Sumo” Lee

1952 to February 14, 2011

On the deck of Craigleith Ski Club, warmed by the sun, the hills and the people he loved, and by whom he was love, suffered a stroke.

Treated unsuccessfully at the Owen Sound Hospital and University Hospital in London, Greg was pronounced dead on Valentine's Day afternoon.

Master ski coach, tennis player of note.

We are saddened by his leaving. We are less without him.

A celebration of Sumo's kindness, generosity and joy for all who learned to ski through him, carved a turn for him and/or with him, and/or loved him.

In Toronto at the Donalda Club on Thursday February 24th, 2011 at 5:00 p.m. and at the Craigleith Ski Club in Collingwood on a date to be fixed.

His generosity lives on by donation and harvesting of organs and tissue. Five recipients of his organs are already benefitting. We also encourage everyone to register with the donor program at their provincial health organization.

Donations in Greg's honour may be made to Alpine Canada, Craigleith Ski Racing Program or the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada.
