I know a lot of people know Neil as Doc Wid but to me and others from the late 60's, who he coached on the University of Waterloo track and cross country teams he will forever be 'Coach' Wid. His philosophy was not of the idea that only the 'best' were welcome to come out for the team but anyone who wanted could come out, be coached, train and race. I remember fondly our post race meals at the Ali Baba Steak House where Neil was a club member. I would bump into him every now and then and would reminisce about the old days. Coach, your memories and philosophy of treating all as equals will live on. An old 'Warrior'. Dave Northey
