Earl McRae
Earl McRae (May 3, 1942 – October 15, 2011) was an award-winning Canadian journalist who formerly wrote a daily general interest column for the ''Ottawa Sun''. ==Early life==
Born Earl Gerald Piche in Toronto to Betty Piche, a homemaker, and Earl Piche, a soldier with The Algonquin Regiment in the Canadian Army, he was raised by his mother and step-father, William "Bill" McRae, after his father, Earl Piche, was killed overseas during the war in 1945. He was soon given his step-father's last name of McRae. McRae came from a family of war veterans, as his own father and uncle were both killed in action during the Second World War, while his grandfathers, as well as step-father Bill McRae, were all decorated war veterans. This would inspire McRae to devote much of his time to veterans causes and affairs, later earning him The Friendship Award, the highest civilian honour, from The Royal Canadian Legion. With Bill McRae being in the Royal Canadian Air Force during peace time, McRae was a so-called army brat, moving around with his family every few years.
