Gone but not forgotten.
Dear loved ones:
I believe that God reaches out
in love to each and every one of us.
Heaven is invisible
But it waits nearby.
Almost as close
As a river is to its bank.
Our loved ones abide there in perfect peace
awaiting a reunion
at Journey's end.
look around your garden Lord
they won't be hard to find.
Their faces are so full of love
and hearts that are good and kind
tell them that we love them
and when they turn and smile
Place your arms around them Lord
and hold them for a while.
We talk about them often
I think about them still
they haven't been forgotten Lord
and they never, ever will.
-Forever loved and remembered by Grandma
TAILOR/TAYLOR,
Justin
DURDLE and the rest of the members of the family

Jonathan SWALLOW
By Chris MALETTE
Tuesday,
October 7, 2003 - Page A24
Teacher, educational software consultant, ski and soccer coach,
and dad. Born in Glenn Ridge, N.J., on April 20, 1958. Died April
27 in Stirling, Ontario, of sudden heart failure, aged 45.
Kids who love a cold day on a fast ski hill, somewhat sedentary
soccer moms and dads who liked to break an occasional sweat and,
strangely, frogs everywhere will miss Jonathan
SWALLOW.
Jonathan
was 45 when, in the prime of an athletic and active life, his
heart -- harbouring a hidden, undiagnosed ailment that affected
the rhythm of the organ -- betrayed an otherwise vibrant man
in his prime.
Born in suburban New Jersey and educated at Syracuse University,
Jonathan came to Canada in the 1980s to undertake graduate studies
at McMaster University where he met the woman who would become
his wife, Mary Ellen
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON. He went on to achieve his PhD
at the University of Toronto.
In his professional career, Jonathan was lauded by scholars for
his cutting-edge work in interactive learning software. At Waterloo,
he collaborated with professor Norm
SCOTT and the Centre for
Learning and Teaching Through Technology -- or LT3 -- to create
a program that allows biology students to dissect frogs in a
virtual environment, on computer, without harming a single amphibian.
After moving to Stirling, north of Belleville, Ontario, and beginning
a family there, Jonathan made fast and strong Friends in the
local amateur theatre community. He helped get couch-potato parents
off the sofa for an adult soccer league and coached in the Stirling
and District Minor Soccer League. But Jonathan truly came to
the fore on the ski slopes of Ontario.
Batawa Ski Club holds many memories of Jonathan. During the winter
he was either on the road, at a ski race, over by the fireplace
talking earnestly with a parent, sitting at a table with his
family and Friends or on the hill having a great time with his
racers.
At a moving and funny, yet surreal, memorial service for Jonathan
at the tatty but active ski club in May, one of Jonathan's closest
Friends and fellow Batawa racing coach, Jeff
DURISH, remembered
Jonathan's dual sense of duty and of fun: "The Rookie program,
for children not old enough to travel with a league team, had
fallen on hard times and nobody had run it for a number of years.
Jonathan phoned me and talked me into helping him revive the
program. Helping Jonathan was one of the best decisions that
I have ever made. I always meant to thank him for it, now I wish
I had."
Jonathan would always show up to practice with a backpack full
of beanbags, ropes and bungee cords, his arms full of bamboo
poles and his head full of crazy ideas. All the other coaches
would scratch their heads and marvel at the weird and wonderful
drills he came up with -- four kids hanging onto a bamboo pole
doing 360s down the hill, racers hanging onto long ropes as they
carved big turns around beanbags. Those crazy beanbags were always
strewn across the hill.
Of course there were always the weird songs and dances to go
along with the drills. It was effective, it was amazing, it was
silly, it was fun, it was wonderful and full of joy -- it was
Jonathan.
"Jonathan was an exceptional coach because he was a great teacher,
an inventor and a child at heart," said brother-in-law Rob
TERRY.
Jonathan leaves wife Mary Ellen, daughter Jenny Lee and son Joseph,
as well as scores of grateful soccer kids, skiers and leopard
frogs everywhere who croak their thanks for a life well lived.
Chris MALETTE is a ski dad who shared a mug or two of hot chocolate
with Jonathan
SWALLOW.
