Earle Gray, well known writer, historian and business owner in Woodville, passed away on April 2, 2024, at the age of 92.

Earle grew up in the remote coastal village of Sechelt, BC where he began his passion for writing as a cub reporter for the Vancouver Sun at the age of 17. Throughout his illustrious career, Earle authored seven published history books and his remarkable achievements in the field of petroleum history earned him a lifetime achievement award from the Petroleum History Society of Canada and the U.S. Petroleum History Institute.

Earle was the editor and publisher of Canadian Speeches, a monthly publication show casing noteworthy Canadians discussing topical issues that have shaped Canada's history. He was deeply committed to informing thoughts and opinions that have influenced the country's development.

Earle’s contributions to literature, history, and Canadian society will be valued for years to come. May he rest in peace with his beloved wife Joan.
