Description
The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
3rd Session
42nd Parliament
A
Massey
Place,
Stadium,
built
in
1990
and
home
to
track
and
field
in
Prince
George
was
renamed
message:
Place
Stadium
in
honor
of
Tom
in
2005
to
reflect
the
impact
he
had
on
the
sport.
But
Tom
wasn't
just
about
track
and
field.
He
was
one
of
the
founders
of
the
Prince
George
minor
Basketball
Association,
and
he
was
the
driving
force
behind
it.
There
were
other
people
who
shared
his
vision
and
they
all
worked
together
to
make
it
happen,
and
that
Association
is
now
almost
50
years
old.
A
He
will
be
remembered
not
just
for
his
many
contributions
to
sport,
earning
him
a
spot
as
an
early
inductee
into
the
Prince
George
Sports
Hall
of
Fame,
but
also
for
his
dedication
to
service
and
his
care
for
those
around
him.
Those
who
knew
Tom
well
will
tell
you
that
he
was
most
proud
of
his
family.
He
loved
to
laugh,
and
in
fact
he
was
known
to
be
a
prankster.
A
My
thoughts
and
since
sincere
condolences
are
with
his
wife
of
more
than
60
years,
his
children,
grandchildren
and
his
great-grandchild.
During
this
difficult
time,
Tom
masich
ran
the
race
well
and
he
crossed
the
Finish
Line
as
he
passed
away
on.
September
the
18th
2022,
but
I
know
that
Tom
and
the
legacy
of
a
life
well
lived
will
not
be
forgotten.
