The children of a Toronto man known for his sense of humour and love of politics has penned a death notice of a different sort.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn lieu of flowers, please vote Liberal\u201d read the notice for John Bolan that appeared in the Star and the Globe and Mail.<\/p>\n
Bolan, 78, worked as a civil servant for the province for more than two decades and was never involved in politics. But he was passionate about the Liberal party, his family says.<\/p>\n
So when he died unexpectedly last Thursday after undergoing surgery for a herniated bowel, his four children decided to give him a send-off in keeping with his personality.<\/p>\n
\u201cHis love of Canada and love of the Liberals were such a huge part of his belief system that they (his children) wanted to somehow incorporate that in his obituary,\u201d said his wife Bernice, 71.<\/p>\n
She added: \u201cA number of people told us that \u2014 just this once \u2014 they\u2019ll be voting Liberal.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
