Our friend Brian Antonson, former associate Dean of BCIT informed us this morning of the unexpected death of Dennis O’Neill
This one hurts personally: longtime friend and BCIT Broadcast and Media Communications faculty member Dennis O’Neill passed away at his home on Friday September 24th at the age of 63.
Den had quite a career in radio and made a mark in Vancouver radio before joining BCIT two decades ago. He was hugely respected and loved by two decades of students.
Family will announce a celebration of Den’s life in the near future. A sad loss for a lot of us.
Brian
Am very sorry to hear about the unexpected death of Dennis.
Not to offend anyone, but I find far too many of my friends dying lately, and it appears to be the ones who have taken the Jabs! Is this just a coincident, or what?
Heartfelt condolences to his family and friends
RIP Dennis. Such a supportive and kind man
Dennis would have laughed at the fact he attracted a vax sociopath to his media mention. I helped him get his BC vax passport.
Loved you Den. RIP, Ryden.
