He trudges on despite a heart that was irreparably broken in November 2012, when his son Tom Samson — a father, husband, brother, Grade 2 teacher, chess player and musician — was killed on his bike by a driver who left the 35-year-old lying on the road.
他的儿子Tom Samson曾是一名2年级的教师、棋手和音乐家，已结婚生子。2012年11月，35岁的Tom骑着自行车出了车祸，而肇事司机却扬长而去，任他躺在地上，慢慢死亡。他悲痛欲绝，这种伤痛无法弥补，尽管如此，他仍然继续艰难的生活着。
“We put on a good face,” says his father, who works as a physiotherapist at the Heritage Nursing Home on Queen East near Leslie St.
