Abstract

Alain went to Saint Stithians College, matriculating there in 1977, going on to study at Onderstepoort and qualifying as a veterinarian in 1983. He achieved his M Med Vet in 1996, specializing in medicine, and taking over the reins from George Frost and establishing Fourways Veterinary Hospital as a state of the art referral facility of world class standard. For a number of years he was an external examiner for the medicine department at OP, and he lectured at numerous symposia both locally and internationally, in various topics. He will be sorely missed by his family, recently becoming a grandfather to Lyra, daughter of Greg and Desi.
