Farewell to a true hero

Wednesday, January 22, 2014 at 11:57AM

Until last Sunday, whenever a helicopter hovered over the mountains that surround my house, I used to think “Tim Jones and his crew are hard at work.”

The word hero is overused these days but if its true meaning applies to anyone, then Tim Jones was that rare breed. For almost three decades he volunteered tirelessly, rescuing people in distress and bringing the injured and lost adventurers home from the mountains.

Read more about him on the CBC website.
