Norman Harold McCLELLAND
By Robert McCLELLAND Friday, January 24, 2003, Page A20
Hockey player, business entrepreneur, family man. Born June 21, 1913, in Toronto. Died January 2 in Toronto, from complications of Alzheimer's disease, aged 89.
It's fitting that Norman McCLELLAND was born on June 21, the summer solstice, as he lived every day as though it were the longest of the year. Norman spent his childhood in Cache Bay, Ontario, a tiny lumber village on Lake Nipissing. Norman was proud of his small-town roots. It was there he developed his respect for the outdoors and his simple, honest outlook toward life.
Norman taught himself how to play hockey. He would wake up early in the morning, scurry down to Lake Nipissing with his second-hand skates and stick and clear the ice himself with a shovel. In Grade 9, Norman left his close-knit family in Cache Bay to attend high school in Toronto and eventually play Junior A hockey. He met his lifelong partner, Margaret CHOWN, soon after his arrival. Last November, they celebrated their 62nd wedding anniversary.
From 1933-1937, Norman studied science and education at the University of Toronto. He also played for the Varsity Blues hockey team and was the squad's captain in 1935-36. Norman managed to pull in good grades while playing in a semi-pro league to pay for his tuition and coach the women's hockey team. Not a big man, (he was 5 foot 6 and, at his heaviest, 155 pounds) Norman was known for his speed -- he once beat Montreal Canadiens star scorer Toe BLAKE in a race for $5. During a tournament, scouts from the Boston Bruins approached Norman's long-term friend and coach, Ace BAILEY, asking him if his protégé wanted to turn professional. Norman never pursued the offer as salaries back then were only a small fraction of what they are today.
For a while after university, Norman taught high-school math and physics. When the Second World War came, Norman joined the navy. Margaret, by then his wife, often joked that he only enlisted so he could play on the naval hockey team, which boasted several National Hockey League players on its roster. Yet Norman took his work seriously. He spent three years in a special branch of the navy, opting to stay on after the war to help returning soldiers find civilian jobs or attend school.
When he left the navy, Norman worked for a while with Imperial Optical where he sold waste receptacles. Metal for the containers was scarce following the war and Norman soon took advantage of this niche in the market. With no engineering experience, he started his own company, Erno Manufacturing, making metal household and business products. With his strong work ethic and straightforward and friendly business demeanor, Erno burgeoned from the back of a garage to a building the size of a city block.
During this time, Norman also helped Margaret raise three boys. He coached baseball and hockey from peewee to major-junior teams. Among his charges were four-time Stanley Cup winner Peter MAHOVLICH and Mike KILKENNY, who went on to pitch for the Detroit Tigers.
In 1968, Norman bought Margaret the birthday present of her dreams: a cottage on Lake Joseph in Muskoka. After he retired, Norman and Margaret spent up to six months of the year there, revelling in the lifestyle: canoeing at dusk and fishing at dawn. Norman also took up watercolour painting and golf -- at 75, he shot his age at a nearby 18-hole course.
Norman spent his last decade suffering from the advanced stages of Alzheimer's. The disease stole Norman from the world, but his spirit will never be forgotten. Within 10 minutes of meeting someone he became a trusted and, often, a lifelong friend. He played the piano, read extensively and enjoyed political debates with his family over dinner and Margaret's apple pie. He loved life, and no disease could take that memory of him away.
Robert McCLELLAND is Norman's son.

Katharine Johnston LAMONT
By Wallace McLEOD Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - Page A16
Historian, teacher, school principal, author. Born December 25, 1905, in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. Died February 19, in Toronto, of natural causes, aged 97.
Throughout her life, Katharine Johnston LAMONT would recall her vivid memories of the cyclone that hit Regina in the afternoon of June 30, 1912, blowing away the third storey of the family home, while she hid under the dining-room table.
Katharine's▲ father was John Henderson LAMONT (1865-1936;) he was successively a member of the federal Parliament (1904-1905), the first attorney-general of the new province of Saskatchewan (1905-1907), a judge of the Provincial Supreme Court (1907), and a justice of the Supreme Court of Canada (1927). The town of LAMONT, 56 kilometres northeast of Edmonton, was named for him. Katherine's mother was Margaret Murray JOHNSTON (1865-1950,) the daughter of William Soules JOHNSTON (1838-1869,) who edited and published the Iroquois Chief, the first newspaper in Dundas County, Ontario (1858), and the granddaughter of Reverend William Henry WILLIAMS (1795-1873,) who conducted the first Methodist camp-meeting in the eastern part of Upper Canada (near Point Iroquois, in 1823), and who later served as the junior minister of the Hay Bay Church, in Adolphustown (1838-1840).
She received her schooling in Saskatchewan, graduating from Regina College. She then attended Victoria College at the University of Toronto, where she earned a degree in English and history in 1927. Her entry in the Torontonensis yearbook gives as her characteristic motto, "Making a virtue of necessity." Then she went on to Oxford University, where she enrolled in Lady Margaret Hall, the oldest women's college there (founded in 1878), and graduated in 1930. She received the degree of Master of Arts from Oxford in 1934.
On her return to Canada, she obtained a position as a teacher at the Bishop Strachan School for girls in Toronto, where she served as head of the history department from 1930 to 1952. Then in 1952 she accepted a call to become the third headmistress (principal) of The Study, a school for girls in Montreal, which had been founded in 1915. She presided over its move to a new location in 1959/60, and continued in office there until her retirement in 1970. Soon after that, she returned to Toronto.
Over the years, she received a good measure of recognition from the alumnae of the Bishop Strachan School. A bursary was established in her name in 1992, and a celebratory dinner was held in her honour; her former students were invited to submit written testimonials. They included such assessments as "She made history come alive " "a truly remarkable woman; " "the most outstanding teacher I ever had; " "known throughout the Province as its finest history teacher; " "she had a way of making her pupils think things out."
And, as another testimony of appreciation, in 2001 one of the student subdivisions of the Bishop Strachan School was named "LAMONT House." A pupil she had taught 60 years earlier said at the time that she especially remembered "an enlightened and influential history teacher, Miss LAMONT, who taught her how to look at, question and analyze the world around her -- not with cynicism but with reason."
After her retirement from teaching, as a student of the past, Katharine wrote a history of her Montreal school, titled The Study: A Chronicle (published in Montreal in 1974). Then, to celebrate the bicentenary of the Loyalist settlement on the Bay of Quinte, she wrote Adolphustown 1784-1984 (Napanee, 1984).
Early in 1996, as her health deteriorated and it became impractical for her to live on her own, she took up residence in the Glebe Manor, in Toronto, where she received excellent care.
Wallace is a friend of Katharine LAMONT.
