I was pleased to see this obituary (warts and all) for Peter Rosen in the Annals. I have my own very personal and fond memories of meeting Peter at several CAEP meetings (which usually ended up with him holding court over booze and cigars.)
A small town rural doctor with an interest in emergency medicine (make that passion) and he seemingly had all the time in the world for me.
I remember talking to him one day, en passant, and he mentioned a paper had been submitted that he thought I would find interesting. I did. The submitted piece had my name all over it (in terms of content) but curiously the author was claiming it as his own idea.
A few months later I was copied on a letter suggesting that the author might consider whether there should be some acknowledgment to the small town doctor in rural, Ontario. That's the kind of guy he was.
Dr. Rosen liked to sail (I didn't!) . So it was my great pleasure to organize a little afternoon sail through the Gulf Islands, courtesy of my classmate Graham Davidson who lived in Saanich. A memorable afternoon and a memory I cherish.
