It was with great sadness that Vanier learned of the passing of David Beardsley, a former faculty member of the Vanier Architectural Technology Department who died on May 15, 2009. Our deepest sympathies are extended to his family as well as to his many friends and colleagues.
His brother Douglas wrote a wonderful article about him published in the Globe and Mail’s “Lives Lived” section on September 25, 2009.
