Pic on front page of The Globe & Mail of Leonard Cohen carrying his teacher and friend Irving Layton to rest....
Yes, I watched the small blurb of it on the news. I loved what Cohen had to say about his friend's life, accomplishments and how Layton would have wanted to be remembered. And he will be remembered for a long time to come I am sure.
I heard that Irving Layton had suffered from alzheimers and was in a home for the last 10 years or so. Tis well and good that he has moved on to, shall we hope and think, better and brighter vistas.
