When he had enough of the long drive, Charlottetown was where he found his next place of employment and it was from here, he retired from the work force. He was an avid runner and biker who completed two PEI marathons. Blair was active in his community, being a member of the Belfast Lions, the local BWAG and assisting with the Pinette Mosquito program when he was able. He loved being outdoors.
