CAEP would like to express sincere appreciation for a gift of $1000 in memory of former CAEP President Peter L. Lane, MD, FRCPC, who died tragically on August 27, 2003. The gift was provided by Peter's parents, Mr. and Mrs. R.L. Lane, of Ottawa.

"We were touched by CAEP's provision of $1000 to honour Peter's memory and we decided to match it," said Mr. Lane. "CAEP was close to Peter's heart. We want to help keep his memory alive by supporting what he was most interested in -- emergency medicine research."

The total amount of $2000 has been donated to the CAEP Research Endowment Fund, which was established by CAEP to support Canadian emergency medicine research and to develop junior investigators.
