Our friendship was unique and an inspiration. Our talks of literature seemed to go on and on endlessly and beautifully.  If your words for your love of poetry were inches, you’d have yourself a giant. The memories we shared will be in my heart forever. 

My name is John Batt and I was a very close friend of Trevor's in Montreal for many, many years. 

Trevor was a brilliant person, truly one of the wisest people in the room, no matter where he was.

One of my fondest memories of Trevor was after he completed his book, Little Black Baby, at a reading he was giving. His work was as complicated as it was funny, much like Trevor. He had everyone eating out of the palm of his hand that evening, hanging off his every word. 

Trevor was also instrumental at neighbourhood baseball games, games that got very heated. Trevor would pitch, everyone agreed he was a fair pitcher and knew the rules. For many years, he never missed a game. He loved playing baseball and he loved the Canucks.

A good friend gone too soon. I will remember him laughing, telling stories and holding a 1L bottle of red wine.

See you on the other side, Tbor.
