Sad News: Robert (Bob) McFaul Passed Away
Dear GYC members,
We sadly share the news of GYC Past Commodore Bob McFaul. Bob was one of the builders of this club, and we enjoy the fruits of his efforts every day at the Georgian Yacht Club.
On behalf of the GYC Board of Directors, I would like to extend our condolences to Bob’s family and friends.
With deepest sympathy,
Louise Johnsen
