Blair was a keen observer, and took great delight in
sharing his enthusiasm for astronomy with kids of all ages. His active
participation in various Victoria Centre public outreach and observing events
will be greatly missed.

When I think of Sidewalk Astronomy, I think
of Blaire Pellatt.
Blaire made a unique contribution to our
hobby and to our centre, and I'm very sorry to hear that we have lost
him so prematurely.
We also know about Blaire's strong devotion
to his family, and I greatly regret their loss.
Chris Gainor, National Representative
RASC Victoria Centre |
Simply speechless, what a shock!

I
have just returned from the Mt. Kobau Star Party to hear of Blair's
passing, so very sad. His support of our outreach and sidewalk
astronomy was appreciated and noted over the years. His strong character
added to the diversity of the RASC Victoria Centre membership.
He absence will be noticed.

family.
