Abstract
I first met in Don 1989 when I was a PhD student studying at the Institute of Child Health, University of London, UK. He had previously spent a sabbatical at the institute with Dr(s) J.M. Tanner, N. Cameron and colleagues, and was visiting on his way to a European meeting. Our paths continued to cross at various paediatric exercise and bone meetings. At one such meeting he invited me to visit the University of Saskatchewan and assist with some longitudinal data analysis. This led to him persuading me, and he was very good at persuading people, to apply for a faculty position in the College of Kinesiology and I was appointed in 2000. I then had the distinct pleasure of working closely with him for the next 23 years. He became not only a great working colleague but more importantly a close friend.
