BARTLETT, Harry▼
In loving memory of a dear husband, father and grandfather Harry BARTLETT who passed away 1 year ago today March 4, 2004.
Remembering you is easy
We do it everyday
Missing you is a heartache
That never goes away.
You had a smile for everyone
You had a heart of gold
You left the sweetest memories
This world could ever hold.
To us you were very special
What more is there to say
Except to wish that you were well
And here with us today.

Love you always.

Championship win tempered by death of legendary coach
By Neil STEVENS, Monday, May 16, 2005, Page S3
Canadian Press
Toronto -- Les BARTLEY died of colon cancer yesterday, less than 24 hours after the team he coached to four National Lacrosse League championships won a fifth.
The resident of St. Catharines, Ontario, was 51. The family planned a private service for today.
"It's a deep loss," said Terry SANDERSON, the general manager and coach of the Toronto Rock. "He was so well respected by the Rock players he coached.
"It's an awful thing. It's such a brutal disease. This is a big loss."
The team presented a three-minute video tribute to BARTLEY before defeating the Arizona Sting 19-13 in front of a record National Lacrosse League crowd of 19,432 at the Air Canada Centre on Saturday. During the game, fans held up signs wishing BARTLEY well.
BARTLEY was a club vice-president this season, but was too ill to attend games. Captain Jim VELTMAN spoke from the heart about his former coach after the victory.
"He's not here right now and that breaks my heart," VELTMAN said. "It's hard for me to talk about.
"He's a very special man. When I saw that tribute, it was hard for me to keep it together. I have a lot of respect for that man."
BARTLEY coached Buffalo to three professional titles before taking over the new franchise. After his seventh pro title in 2003, he looked forward to going for another. But he was diagnosed with colon cancer later in the year and underwent operations. He had to relinquish his job behind the bench. He also was the club's general manager.
"He continued to have a deep interest in the team," SANDERSON said. "We had a very good rapport."
The league named the trophy it awards to the coach of the year the Les Bartley Trophy.
BARTLEY was a United Auto Workers contract negotiator in St. Catharines, and he helped the National Lacrosse League and the players association get together on a new collective agreement last fall. On May 9, the National Lacrosse League chose BARTLEY as the executive of the year.
Five of the National Lacrosse League's 10 head coaches this season played for BARTLEY: Bob Hamley (Arizona), Paul Day (Rochester), Darris Kilgour (Buffalo), Jamie Batley (Colorado) and Derek Keenan (Anaheim).
"A lot of coaches in the league today were influenced by Les," Day said after the announcement of the award. "You're not going to find anybody who had a more positive influence than he had on his teams and the guys who played for him."
BARTLEY coached Canada to international titles, including the Heritage Cup and the inaugural world indoor championship in 2003.
"He did a great job competing at the highest level," Gary GAIT, the National Lacrosse League career scoring leader, said of BARTLEY last week. "Les embodies the spirit of competition and sportsmanship in a coach. He's a model coach."
The Les' Fund Initiative was launched in conjunction with Lisa's Beads to raise money to fight cancer. Fans in most National Lacrosse League cities participate, selling beads in National Lacrosse League team colours and donating proceeds to local cancer societies, hospitals or research centres.

Private memorial held for BARTLEY

St. Catharines, Ontario -- A private service was held yesterday in memory of former Toronto Rock coach and general manager Les BARTLEY, 51, who died on Sunday of colon cancer. He died less than 24 hours after the Rock, the team he coached to four National Lacrosse League championships, won a fifth title.

Les BARTLEY, Lacrosse Coach and Executive: 1954-2005
As the man behind the Toronto Rock, he led a neophyte team to unsuspected heights in North American professional sport
By Danny GALLAGHER, Special to The Globe and Mail, Monday, May 23, 2005, Page S6
Toronto -- Over seven seasons of operation, the Toronto Rock lacrosse club has stick-handled its way from pro-sport obscurity to achieve cult status and a blaze of success both on the floor and at the turnstiles.
Suddenly, the National Lacrosse League's Rock is chic in Hogtown, and it's all because of Les BARTLEY. As head coach and general manager, he led the team to four league championships. Of course, he did not do it alone (former Toronto Maple Leafs executive Bill WATTERS is principal owner, and minority shareholders include Tie DOMI, Brendan SHANAHAN and Bobby ORR) but, as the mastermind of the team's success, he was the iconic head and leader of the current Rock dynasty.
Given that, it's all the more surprising to learn that Mr. BARTLEY himself was an unspectacular lacrosse player. Growing up in St. Catharines, Ontario, he also played football for St. Catharines Collegiate Institute. He was a defensive end when Malcolm ALLEN met up with him and discovered him to be "exceedingly strong" physically. "When he came into a room, he had a huge presence but not because he was 6-3 and weighed 250. He was a wiry guy about 5-10, 165 pounds."
Not long after graduating from high school, Mr. BARTLEY landed a job on the General Motors' V-8 assembly line in St. Catharines. He later became a union representative for United Auto Workers, which became the Canadian Auto Workers in 1985. He was what the union calls an "in-plant elected official" for the local in St. Catharines. For 20 years, he was a key negotiator in contract talks with General Motors both at the local and national level. As it happened, one of the people who worked with him at the Canadian Auto Workers office was Mr. ALLEN, his high-school crony and friend since 1968.
"Les was a compassionate, caring person," said Mr. ALLEN, who is financial secretary for the union's local in St. Catharines. "The employees he represented in contract talks, he put them first and foremost. When it came to family, he always wanted to know how you were and how the children was doing."
It was while at Canadian Auto Workers that Mr. BARTLEY decided to coach lacrosse on the side. In 1992, he joined the Buffalo Bandits for a short unpaid stint as a scout and then took on coaching duties when the team got off to an 0-3 start. So what did he do right off the bat? Well, he merely led the Bandits to 22 consecutive wins and a league championship. He followed that with title wins in 1993 and 1996.
In 1998, professional lacrosse evolved into the National Lacrosse League with the addition of the Ontario Raiders, the first Canadian franchise. Mr. HARTLEY became coach and the team went 6-6 playing out of Hamilton's Copps Coliseum. The following season, the Raiders were shifted to Toronto to become the Rock, and that's when Mr. BARTLEY spun his magic again, spearheading the team to four league titles in five years.
He also found a measure of success elsewhere. He coached Canada to international lacrosse titles, including the Heritage Cup served as the assistant coach of the St. Catharines senior A team that won its first Minto Cup in 10 years in 2001; and led Team Canada to the 2003 world indoor title.
"He's a guy who had no history in the game coming in to coach Buffalo and then he wins all these championships and becomes one of, if not the best coach lacrosse has ever known," said Jim VELTMAN, who was captain under Mr. BARTLEY in both Buffalo and Toronto for a total of 12 seasons.
Mr. BARTLEY was a legend at evaluating and acquiring talented players. As a motivator and coach, he was known for his pre-game pep talks and for his innovation.
He pioneered the use of specialists rather than two-way offensive and defensive players in a game that is dominated by offence.
"It was Les who implemented that style of having special offensive and defensive players and other coaches started doing the same thing," said Mr. VELTMAN. "I was a multi-faceted player and he wanted me to go out the offensive door but he allowed me to run back on defence. He gave me that latitude and I appreciated that."
"We have been and will be successful because we have depth with role clarity," Mr. BARTLEY once said. "Each player buys into playing their specific role. It simplifies everything. Each guy just does his job at the best level they can." But Mr. BARTLEY wasn't just a coach who stood behind the bench. Off the floor, he held team-bonding sessions at hotels in places such as Orillia, Ontario, and he would bring in sports psychologists to help bring out the best in his players.
"Les used mental imagery and exercises a lot," said Mr. VELTMAN. "He'd take you in a high school and have you jumping 20 feet off a platform in a harness -- stuff like that. That was a way to deal with the rougher edge in a person and lacrosse player. He was very fanatical and when he spoke, he was intense and passionate but he wasn't an in-your-face coach."
At first, some team members were puzzled by the techniques but soon discovered his off-the-floor tactics contributed to the team's success. "I can see now where he was coming from with his ideas," Rock goaltender Bob WATSON told reporters after the team won this year's National Lacrosse League championship without Mr. BARTLEY behind the bench.
One way or another, he brought it all together with the result that his overall coaching record of 93-38 (.709) in the regular season and 18-4 in the playoffs remains the best of any coach in National Lacrosse League history.
Mr. BARTLEY fell ill at the end of the 2003 season and was forced to relinquish his duties, although he stayed on as vice-president. Last year, he drew on his labour-negotiating experience and set aside his illness to coax the National Lacrosse League and its players' association to agree on a new three-year collective bargaining agreement at a time when the players had threatened to go on strike. As it turned out, he was a voice of reason when one was most needed.
"The players hold him in such high regard that his presence at the bargaining table elevated the level of trust in the process," National Lacrosse League commissioner Jim JENNINGS said.
In recognition, on May 9, the league named him executive of the year and renamed its coach-of-the-year award the Les Bartley Trophy.
On May 14, just before the Rock won its fifth league championship against the Arizona Sting in front of a crowd of 19,432, Mr. BARTLEY's story was told in a three-minute video that earned a standing ovation.
Les BARTLEY was born on March 11, 1954, in St. Catharines, Ontario He died there on May 15, 2005, of colon cancer. He is survived by his wife, Gloria, and children Matt and Laura. A private family service was held on May 16.
