Bernie Toorish, co-founder of The Four Lads, dies at 94
The writer of the following obituary begins with a very strange description of The Four Lads as coming from a "British territory", in what seems to be a misguided attempt to make an allusion to The Beatles. But otherwise, it gives a good overview of Bernie Toorish's very lengthy and noteworthy career ... it dated back to the 1940s, and he had still been performing as recently as 2018.

Back when he was born, Canada was a part of the British Empire.

I'd have been ok with the obit saying that, but it was the use of territory that I felt someone else might call out if I didn't. In addition, it was referencing where The Four Lads were coming from when they went to the US, which was around 1950. But otherwise, I appreciated the fact that they ran an obit about him, because I couldn't find any other news site that did so.
