Niagara police chief led force 6 years
Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - Page R7
Niagara Falls, Ontario -- Former Niagara Region police chief
John SHOVELLER has died of brain cancer.
Mr. SHOVELLER, a Niagara Falls native who devoted 34 years to
policing, died Saturday at age 67.
Mr. SHOVELLER began his career in Elliot Lake, Ontario, before
moving back to Niagara region.
"He was a consummate police officer, said his wife, Leah
SHOVELLER.
"He loved his job so much."
Mr. SHOVELLER accomplished a long-time goal when he became chief
in 1987. During his watch, a judicial inquiry looked into, and
cleared, the Niagara force of corruption allegations. Later,
in 1991 and 1992, when schoolgirls Kristen
FRENCH and Leslie
MAHAFFY were found murdered in St. Catharines, Ontario, he survived
the criticism that dogged the investigation that eventually led
to the convictions of Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka. He retired
in 1993.

Born in Renfrew on April 29, 1914, she moved to Sudbury in 1924
where her father established his lumber business. She attended
Central Public and Sudbury High School, Branksome Hall and graduated
from the School of Nursing, University of Toronto, in 1937. After
working in Toronto in public health, she returned to Sudbury
the following year where she met and married Mac.
Kae loved to golf and curl, and took an avid interest in her
family's history. She was very talented in the traditional arts,
enjoying knitting, quilting and cooking. As an active community
volunteer, she belonged to the Imperial Order of the Daughters
of the Empire where she was Regent and to the Salvation Army
as an organizer for the annual fund raising drive and board member.
She loved to travel with her husband and Friends, but her favourite
place in the world was Lake Pogamasing where her parents established
a family camp in 1941 and where she spent every summer with her
family. She loved to entertain her Friends and her children's
Friends, especially at Pog. We were blessed to have a mother
and grandmother who stressed the importance of family, community
and responsibility. She loved to bring people together and do
things for them, to share her interests and her talents, she
was kind and considerate to all she met, and along with Dad taught
us how to dance and have fun.
Special thanks from the family to Dr. Reg
KUSNIERCZYK and his
staff, the Walford staff and Dr.

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.
