“Our immediate thoughts are with Sandy’s wife, Wendy, and the entire family at this terribly difficult time.
“Sandy was so proud to serve his constituents in the Bridge of Don and to represent his city as a councillor for over seven years.
“We were privileged to call him a friend and colleague and will all miss his passion and enthusiasm.”
