| Greg Southam's Message: |
It has been five years since anti-smoking crusader Barb Tarbox died. Our paper talked to Barb's 15-year-old daughter, Mackenzie, to find out what her mother's crusade meant to her. I produced my first multimedia video that can be viewed at
http://www.canada.com/edmontonjournal/news/story.html?id=7665991b-07e3-4c99-8d07-adf5ab441a8e and click on Barb Tarbox Speaks. Barb spoke to more than 50,000 students before she died and will always be remembered for that accomplishment by many, while others remember her as the woman that asked students to quit smoking while she could not. Thanks for viewing.
