Congratulations, Gary Burrill - Birth of Grandchild

CLAUDIA CHENDER « » : Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize my friend and colleague Gary Burrill on the birth of his very first grandchild, Raynard Perry Tynes Fairfax-Burrill who came into the world on October 16th at 12:23 a.m. weighing 7 lbs. 14 oz. (Applause)

Gary's daughter Rosanna Burrill and her partner Jackson Fairfax-Perry are resting at home with baby Raynard and are all healthy and well.

I think all members of the Legislature will agree with me that with Gary as a role model, this child will have no shortage of love, colourful bedtime stories and, with any luck, a laugh as hearty as his grandfather's.

I ask all members to join me in congratulating Gary on this momentous milestone. (Standing Ovation)

THE SPEAKER « » : Considering the fact that we're not supposed to be using proper names in the House, on this special occasion I will certainly let it slide.
