Leader of the official opposition. Thank you, Mr Speaker, Mr Speaker. Over the weekend, Surrey lost one of its great ambassadors and I lost a good friend and supporter in the name of Larry Fisher Larry was a very successful entrepreneur who started the Lark group. He was a loving dad and a Granddad and someone I've been very proud to call a friend for many many years. He was also a huge Surry booster and a builder who rarely said no to any request.

Any charity that had something going on anything that would benefit any of the folks in Surrey. He was always the first to step up to the plate. He loved his community and he loved this province very deeply and as a result, anywhere you go in Surrey. You will see Testaments to his legacy. The north Surrey sport, nice complex, excellent, Ice, Arena, the towers and City Center, the bill, Reed Memorial Shelter for the homeless, Laurel Place for seniors, the Fraser Valley Heritage, car barn, Morgan, Creek, Golf, Course on and on.

It goes all of that, a tribute to Larry and the Lark group Larry. You truly left your mark and you helped spearhead some of the incredible growth and development in the city of Surrey. While I was thinking about those that were less fortunate.

The city is a better place because of your involvement and your energy there's every company every contractor, every subcontractor, Larry Fisher Knew by name he worked with all of them and everybody knew he was a handshake business person, the kind of person whose handshake meant you knew everything was going to get done exactly as he committed committed to do.

He was also a great supporter of our free enterprise system because he recognized that A system that allows people to to thrive and creates a quality of opportunity is the best way to generate revenues and wealth for the province to ensure that we've got the dollars needed to fund important services. And finally, I'll just say this- that the one thing I couldn't stand about. Larry is he loved early morning meetings and he would insist on meeting at six in the morning all the time, because his day started at five.

This guy was a worker and I'm sure that somewhere out there, his work is continuing he's finding a new project, but I asked the house to please think of his memory.
