MLA Ellis Ross pays tribute to Father In Law Glen Henry upon his passing with Legislature statement

Skeena MLA Ellis Ross speaking in the Legislature

Skeena MLA Ellis Ross shared some personal news with the members of the BC Legislature on Thursday, making note of the passing of his father in law Glen Henry in Kitimat earlier the day.

Hemaaas, Musmagilth, Gukaloot. 

Early this morning my wife lost her father. My children lost their grandfather. My grandchildren lost their great-grandfather. It's suspected it was due to heart problems, but he was definitely battling dementia, which is a cruel condition for victims as well as their family and friends. 

Dementia has been described as a long goodbye. 

Glen Henry was born November 16, 1945, and passed away April 28, 2022, at 12:30 a.m. in Kitimat General Hospital. Rest in peace, Glen Henry.

The MLA's comments for the Legislature can be reviewed in the video below, which he shared through his Facebook page yesterday.

As word has been shared of the passing, the MLA's social media page has been receiving messages of sympathy for Mrs.  Ross and Mr. Ross and his family.
