It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Pete Renshaw the past-Chair of the Dufferin Board of Trade. I have known Pete since 2011 and have had many opportunities to learn from him and observe his passion for the community and DBOT. He was an inspiration to me, very down to earth and dedicated to organizations he believed in, caring about what really happened and affecting change where he could.   Communities thrive from people with vision and desire to make change, like Pete. He has been part of the DBOT family for countless years and dedicated incredible energy to help local businesses thrive. To honor Pete's dedication to our organization we will be naming our board room the "Pete Renshaw Boardroom" in an official gathering later this summer. If you wish to leave the family online condolences, please do so here: Peter Renshaw   Liz Skorski, Chair, Dufferin Board of Trade
