Maurice was a passionate American history buff. He dedicated 25 years to Ajax high school, where he shared this passion with his students. Travel was another passion of his. He had toured all 50 American states, with deep admiration for the National Parks, presidential libraries, and historic monuments. His retirement objective was to visit every single National Park, collecting stamps and badges along the way. He also had a love for live entertainment. He filled his evenings with concerts and theatre, and would eagerly regale you with the details of his latest night out. He was a loving and caring father and man, admired by those around him at home and at work.
