We regret to announce the passing of Alan Geoffrey Marris on 24 November 2012.
Al joined Mapping and Charting Establishment in 1965 and, after completing the Topographic Survey trade selection course, started what was to be a 23-year career as a Civilian in the unit. Training as a Stereo Compilation Operator was followed by employment in the Cartographic Sub-Section, Joint Operations Graphic Squadron, and with Aero Triangulation until he was required to retire in 1988 due to ill health. Friends and family are invited to celebrate Alan's life at the Heart & Crown on Preston Street in Ottawa on Sunday 9 December from 2:00 to 5:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, a donation to the MS Society in Alan's name would be appreciated.
