It is with sad hearts the Board and Staff of the Ontario Ground Water Association say farewell to John Ortt. He was a long standing corporate member; a friend, colleague, and most recently inducted as an honorary member. John will be widely remembered as one of the pivotal, driving forces for the improvement of education, best business practices, and professionalism in the ground water industry. Our deepest sympathies go out to Lyn and Kelly and their families, and to John’s friends and colleagues.
