Chris Sutter, one of the founding fathers of Canadian Western Agribition, passed away on Friday.
Sutter was the first President of Agribition and the visionary behind the show.
His vision became a reality in 1971 with the opening of the first ever Canadian Western Agribition.
The news spread quickly through the agricultural community on Friday when it was posted on the official Facebook page for Agribition. People immediately responded with messages of condolence to the Sutter family.
