What are you passionate about? That
was the big question last week as the Dr. Peter Centre celebrated
its first anniversary with activities, an open house and
an exclusive gala event that featured 12 of the city's top
restaurants. "Passions" , held on Sep. 19, represented the
ideals of Dr. Peter Jepson-Young who died from AIDS in 1992.
Now his legacy lives on in this place that offers comfort
care and a home to those in need.

With over 250,000 unique visits each month, our site would
