I only found out that my childhood friend, Blair Watson, a regulare contributer to RfM for many years, and author of an eBook called Latter-day Saint Swindle: The Mormon Church’s $200-Billion Scam passed away 18 months ago.
This is something I found out today unexpectedly after visiting this site after an absense of several years. (a tribute to this wonderful website's benefit, I have lived Mo-Free for nearly 20 years)
Blair was one of the people I regularly spoke to in the years 2004 to 2013 after he had relocated to Western Canada and we shared a similar journey in life mostly by phone. (Earlier, He even participated at my wedding back in the 1980s.) I will sadly miss him and I am in shock about this news today.
If any one replies to this, or knew Blair, please let me know. (I did read over the tributes to him from back in Oct 2014)
Note: I myself recall speaking to Blair by phone about Aug-Sep 2014. I had been involved in a severe accident and was housebound while recovering. We spoke a few times, never for long, but often about growing up in the Toronto area as teens and our shared journey out. When I recovered, several months later, after a subsequent stroke, I found it hard to reconnect up with people and I dimly recall emailing him without an answer. Time passed and I failed to pursue this and I feel a great sense of loss,
I did post a belated tribute to his legacy page at the funeral home that conducted his service. I, like others, will miss him!
