Stuart Jolliffe was the GM of the Westin Harbour Castle hotel in Toronto but his passion outside his business life was music and the musicians who made it. Stuart was a past board member of Music Nova Scotia, co-chair of the host committee for the Junos in Halifax, heavily involved in the East Coast Music Awards and a big supporter of Unison. His generosity to artists was unsurpassed.
