"My memories of Lloyd Robertson bring back such strong emotions that tears fill my eyes.
For more than five decades, Lloyd was one of Canada's most trusted voices, bringing integrity, compassion, and grace into our homes. To me, he was much more than a legendary broadcaster. He was a dear friend and steadfast supporter of Famous PEOPLE Players.
Since 1974, Lloyd generously hosted our fundraising galas alongside our beloved friend Knowlton Nash. Every New Year's Day, I looked forward to gathering at Knowlton and Lorraine Thomson's home, where Lloyd was always there. The conversations we shared were thoughtful, inspiring, and unforgettable.
Canada has lost a broadcasting icon. We have lost a true friend.
Lloyd, thank you for believing in our dream and helping us share it with the world. I know the gates of heaven opened wide to welcome you. Give Knowlton and Lorraine a hug from all of us, and keep watching over Famous PEOPLE Players. Your kindness, wisdom, and unwavering support will forever remain part of our story. ❤️"
