Jim Westaway wrote a sympathy message

“Donna I know Hugh, and l later you, for a long time thought it now seems fleeting. He added many valuable insights combined with humour and compassion.’All this I will miss, although not missing. We share, in some small part, the important gap that he leaves in your life, Everyours, Jamie and Nancy”

Monique Larocque wrote a sympathy message

“À toute la famille de Hugh Segal, mes sinçères condoléances. Je n’oublierai jamais son beau sourire, sa bonhomie, son enthousiasme et son sens d’humour très spécial! J’ętais à l’Université d’Ottawa en même temps que Hugh. Never forget a particular quote from Hugh, big smile, multicoloured scarf swung across his shoulder, perennial pipe in mouth!: when I get to be Prime Minister of Canada, mark my words, no lawyer is going to be allowed on the street with a good looking lady by his side! Amen!”

Susan Freeman wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Donna I am so very sorry to hear of Hugh’s passing. I will never forget our wonderful trip along the Canal Du Midi. Having you and Hugh on our boat was so much fun. That was Graham’s last holiday and he was so happy to have you with us. I will never think of Hugh without smiling. His support of Kids Help Phone was so important to its successful launch.
