The Harbord Village Residents’ Association (HVRA) mourned the passing of long-time board member Steve Klein, who passed away last month after a struggle with lymphoma. He loved travelling with his family and had a strong relationship with his daughter.

Klein joined the HVRA board in early 2009, bringing new ideas with his quiet but solid presence, continually pushing the association to remain responsible to its members and take on the challenges within the neighbourhood. He donated many volunteer hours to the HVRA, most recently helping to redesign its website, as well as organize the annual pumpkin festival. This popular event is run in conjunction with the Harbord Street BIA and returns to Harbord Street between Spadina Avenue and Borden Street on Nov. 1 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m.
