"Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the loss of our cherished colleague and friend. Over nearly three decades with Onex ( ONEXF ), he was committed to its values, its culture, and most of all its people, who regarded him with deep admiration and affection. We will miss him dearly," said chief executive Bobby Le Blanc.
