No Tarnish on Silver Anniversary Memories —Michelson

Fast forward to 1991, and the induction of Thomas Manning, of the former Judd's Inc. Left to raise 10 children after his wife died, it was touching to see Manning's kids and elderly mother there to share in his special moment. The same evening, though, I learned Manning was terminally ill and could barely muster the strength to be present. That same induction class included Robert Ott Sr., of The Hennegan Co.—easily one 
of the most gracious individuals I have ever met. That night we also honored Pierre Péladeau, founder of Quebecor Inc., who was small in stature but big in bravado. At 
one point during his acceptance speech, Péladeau pointed his finger and scolded some people in the back of the room for making too much noise while he was talking.
