[Advisors] Jim Sayre

[Tracey Axelsson]

Hi all

It is with great sadness that I post this.  James (Jim) Sayre passed 
away in the early hours of August 25th from esophageal cancer.  Jim used 
his law degree to assist the disadvantaged through representing clients 
of the Community Legal Assistance Society (CLAS) in the areas of 
Workers' Compensation and Employment Insurance law. He was on the 
steering Committee of PovNet since its formation in 1997. Jim also 
played a big part in the Vancouver Community Network (VCN), a community 
information provider.  Jim felt that VCN and telecommunications in 
general should help community groups, advocates and activists improve 
their understanding of the internet in order to assist their clients 
more effectively.

Jim will be dearly missed by his friends & colleagues.

-- 
all the best

Tracey
