November 11, 2006 PREMIER GARY DOER TODAY ISSUED THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT UPON HEARING OF THE PASSING OF THE REV. HARRY LEHOTSKYIt is with great sadness that I learned of the passing of Rev. Lehotsky.
For years, Rev. Lehotsky worked shoulder to shoulder with people to address the challenges facing their communities. In addition to providing spiritual support, he was a strong voice for better housing, safer streets and community empowerment.
Above all, Rev. Lehotsky forced all of us to be honest in our discussions of how to address the many issues facing society and our communities.
Rev. Lehotsky illustrated not just to Winnipeg, but also to the world, the difference one person can make to their community. Rev. Lehotsky will be missed. But his many achievements will be with us for generations to come. |
