We note with great sadness that Ian Caddell, journalist for the Georgia Straight, editor of Reel West magazine and founding member of the Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»Film Critics Circle, passed away Wednesday after a two-year battle with cancer. He was 63. Caddell was an early champion of the B.C. and Canadian film industry as marketing director for the Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»International Film Festival and contributor to numerous media outlets. His contribution loomed large.
Caddell leaves behind five sons: Emmett, Adam, Nathan, Tobin and Owen. Ian had met every actor and movie star youve ever heard of, but the best conversations I had with him, we chatted about his sons, notes Julie Crawford, Caddells VFCC colleague and a Courier contributor.
A trust fund has been set up for the education of his sons. Cheques should be made to: John Nicolls, ITR and can be sent to his attention at: Richards Buell Sutton LLP, # 700 401 West Georgia St., Vancouver, B.C., V6B 5A1.
