Born and raised in small-town Saskatchewan, Garth has been to a Super Bowl in Florida and a World Cup soccer final in California, attended a baseball fantasy camp in the Dominican Republic and a soccer tournament in Honduras, played golf in Thailand, sat freezing through a Grey Cup game at the Big O in Montreal, witnessed first-hand World Series games in San Diego, Detroit, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Kansas City and Toronto, spent much of one long-ago winter in the Canary Islands, helped an old friend rediscover his roots in Croatia and a daughter develop hers at art school in Italy, has another daughter living in Hong Kong and a brother living in Japan.
