Clayton Gerein left us on Friday, January 22 2010 after a short yet courageous battle with cancer.
Our thoughts are with his family, wife Ruth, children Jasmine and Zoe, as well to all those many faces around the world that Clayton called his “Friend.”

As many of you are aware, The Torch relay making its way to Vancouver for the 2010 Paralympics and Olympics made its stop in Regina. Clayton was chosen as one of the Torch Bearers for a portion of the Regina relay. In true Clayton form, there was no way a hospital bed, let alone cancer, was going to stop him from fulfilling what he deemed a privilege and honourable task. This, my friends, was the true spirit of Clayton Gerein.
