2023-03-08: We are sad to report the passing of Ted Kornak at the Foothills Hospital this morning. Ted was President of C&D from 2004 to 2006. He and his wife Myrna were also the editors of the C&D “Grapevine” newsletter for many years. They were long-time members of The Dots & Dashers Club and were also part of the group that danced at the 1988 Winter Olympics. Funeral arrangements are pending.
