Matthew's Dream
Matthew Cardin lived in awe of the natural world around him. In a moving ceremony on the banks of the Goldstream River Saturday, a small but important piece of that world was dedicated posthumously in the young man’s honour.
Cardin — who went to David Cameron, Spencer and Belmont schools before attending and graduating from the University of Victoria in 2002 — was killed on Dec. 3, 2003.
A consummate outdoorsman, Cardin died at age 27 near Port Renfrew, his home at the time, after a Douglas fir toppled in high winds and crushed his truck. He was thought to have been keeping an eye on fish habitat, and perhaps watching for poachers, following the illegal slaughter of two Roosevelt elk in the same area a week earlier.
