Egon was a wonderful man and inspiration to all who knew him. His dedication to fitness allowed him to swim across the river yearly and regularly bike over 40 kilometres well into his eighties. He was a coach for Special Olympics Swimming for at least 17 years and was a founder of the program in Brockville. Most important, he was a very kind and loving man. He will be missed but remembered by a large number of people whose lives were better for having known him. Stephen Wormington
