Peter H. Schuepp, Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, Que. and Orillia, Ont.
Governor General's Caring Canadian Award

For more than 30 years, Mr. Schuepp has worked as a volunteer at the Ste. Anne's Hospital. As treasurer and then a member of the first board of directors, he was very active during the incorporation of the volunteer service. He has recently been interested in helping patients in palliative care and has always been ready to spend the night at the bedside of those who are dying, comforting them as much as he can during their last moments.
