deep and profound sadness that we announce the passing of a loving husband,
father, grandfather, brother and uncle at his residence in Nova Scotia. He

64. Following his transplant surgery, he returned with gusto to pursue his
special interest in a specialized field of surgery - cryosurgery. He continued
to practice his beloved medicine with devotion to his patients until 1994 when
he retired. He was the oldest recipient of a heart transplant in Canada and
retained good health for 20 years enabling him to continue his lifelong dreams.

Ireland; daughters: Dr. Carolyn Boulos and Deirdre Broude; sons: Albert and
Cieran Boulos; grandchildren: Krista, Daniel, James, Robert, Zachary, Connor,
