I am very sad to hear that David F. Hardwick MD, FRCPC, FCAP has died. An internationally recognized paediatric pathologist, Hardwick was involved with The University of British Columbia for more than sixty years as both a student and professor. I will miss him dearly.

Deeply saddened that Dr. David Hardwick of @UBCMedicine has passed away. One of the greatest builders of our medical school and a tireless champion for student well-being and collegiality in medicine. I am so grateful for his mentorship & irreverent humor. https://t.co/h2UfeiRUOj
