Hon. Fabian Manning: Honourable senators, today I am pleased to present Chapter 75 of “Telling Our Story.”
As you are all aware, 75 is a very significant number in this place, and selecting that number for this particular chapter is not a coincidence.
In the past, I have spoken in this chamber about the productive and successful lives of many of my fellow Newfoundlanders and Labradorians — those who have chosen to live and work in the province, and those who have journeyed beyond the rock to make their mark in the world. Today, I am adding another person to that list.
George J. Furey was born on May 12, 1948.
