30 - Rob Smith

Julie Hornby, a veteran Toronto Sun librarian, writes:

"Sad news for Sun veterans that affable librarian Rob Smith passed away last weekend from cancer.

"Rob was a fixture in the library from the 1980s until the mid-90s when he left to work for fundraising at the East General Hospital.

"Rob loved books, movies and was a big sports fan, well-known to the poolies in our sports department.

"His friend Matt Shorter would like to inform everyone of a wake at the Pilot Tavern on April 10, from 8 p.m. onwards."

Memories of Rob can be e-mailed to TSF.
