Home blaze kills man
By Patrick MALONEY, Free Press Reporter, Mon., October 10, 2005
Ingersoll -- Just 20 minutes after leaving his elderly father's home here, Stuart NORTH was told flames were tearing through the small white bungalow.
Herbert NORTH, 83, got out of the house in time, too -- only to go back into the flames filling his quaint Bond Street home.
It was a decision that Oxford Ontario Provincial Police say cost the elderly man his life Saturday night and that left his son in tears yesterday.
"He probably thought he could handle (the flames)," an emotional Stuart NORTH said of his father yesterday. "He was still in good shape, even though he was 83."
There were also two pets in the house, a rabbit named Willy and Princess, a German shepherd. Both survived the blaze.
The fire, which broke out about 7 p.m. Saturday, was seen by a neighbour who rushed to help the elderly NORTH get outside.
Minutes later, however, NORTH went back in, neighbours said, and the front windows of the home were then blown out by the flames.
Ingersoll firefighters arrived within minutes and found NORTH's body just inside the front door, police said.
Investigators who returned to the house yesterday were trying to determine why he went back inside.
Roger DURSTON, a neighbour who held himself back from running inside after NORTH, was also bothered by nagging questions yesterday.
"I still don't know if I did the right thing or not," DURSTON said of his decision to stay out. "We ran around the house calling for him. It's something that's going to stick with me for a while."
It's been four years since Herbert's wife -- and his mother -- died and the NORTH family, who are gathering for Thanksgiving dinner today, were staggered by the weekend tragedy, Stuart NORTH said.
"He was sort of a stubborn, determined guy but if you needed help, he was always there," his son said, crying. "He liked to keep busy all the time. He liked... helping out as much as he could."
The child of English immigrants, Herbert was the first of his family to be born in Canada. He spent his career as an entrepreneur, moving his family -- which included daughter Neta -- across Ontario in a wide variety of different ventures: owning a restaurant in his hometown of Oshawa, a variety store in North Bay, a coffee truck on the docks of Toronto.
His greatest passion, however, was his family, Stuart said.
"He was dedicated to mom," he said, adding his father, who moved to Ingersoll about 1990, was a "good friend (and) good grandfather."
There wasn't a bad thing to say about him, added neighbour Ron BRYAN, who called Herbert his best friend.
"He was just a super person," BRYAN said. "Man, was he in good health. He enjoyed life, he enjoyed his family and he enjoyed (spending time with) my wife and I very, very much.
"It's so tough. I'm just having a hard time accepting it.
Damage to the home is about $120,000, Oxford Ontario Provincial Police said.
The cause has to be determined.
The funeral will be held in South River, near North Bay, where Herbert's widow is buried, Stuart NORTH said.

VERNON, G.▼ Patrick▼ H.▼
(Hons. B.A., LL.B., Q.C., Doctor of Sacred Letters)
On Wednesday, August 3, 2005 Patrick passed away at home, in the loving arms of his family, after a courageous 13-year battle with cancer. He was a survivor of prostate cancer owing to early detection and treatment. Patrick will be greatly missed by his family, Deborah Smith VERNON, his wife of fifty years, children Catherine Harcourt MARTIN, Geoffrey William Harcourt VERNON, Susan▼ Elizabeth▼ Vernon▼ PELLERIN, their spouses/partners Robert MARTIN, Johnny▼ BRYAN, and Denis PELLERIN, and grandchildren Richard, Taylor and Scott MARTIN, Caitlin▼ and Julia VERNON, and Sarah and Lucie PELLERIN.
Born to Arthur Arundel Harcourt VERNON and Margaret Cayley Harcourt VERNON on November 15, 1926, Patrick attended Jarvis Collegiate, Trinity College School, Trinity College, and Osgoode Hall Law School, becoming a corporate lawyer and a partner at McCarthy Tétrault. In 1981 Patrick was called to the Bar of Alberta, and took up residence in Calgary. He became the managing partner of a new law firm, Black and Company, which ultimately became part of McCarthy Tétrault, the national law firm.
Patrick was the consummate community service advocate and volunteered his time and talents to the organizations in which he believed. He was a Life Governor of Trinity College School, a volunteer worker and chief fundraiser for the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada, and served on a number of charitable foundations and boards. In 1995 he was appointed for four years to the Ontario Securities Commission, and from 2001 to the present, served as a director of the Ontario Pension Board. In September 2004, Patrick received the honorary degree, Doctor of Sacred Letters at Trinity College, Toronto, in recognition of his service to the School, the Church and the community.
An avid historian, Patrick published two books, The Bells of Old York, which outlines the change-ringing bells, the installation of which he co-ordinated, at The Cathedral Church of St. James, and Ladywood, a compilation of diaries relating to the 100-year history of the Vernon summer residence on Lake Simcoe. Patrick enjoyed travelling, fishing, skiing, playing billiards, card games and tennis with family and Friends. He had conservation and other projects on the go at his and Debby's beloved 'Hilltop House' near Uxbridge, Ontario, and was always happy to spend 'grandfather time' with his seven grandchildren.
A service to celebrate Patrick's life will be held at 11 a.m., Thursday, August 11, 2005 at The Cathedral Church of St. James, 65 Church Street (at King St. E.).
The▼ family wishes to thank Dr. Douglas ROBERTSON, the doctors and caregivers at Princess Margaret Hospital, the Toronto General Hospital, Integracare, and the Temmy Latner Centre for Palliative Care. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation or giving your personal time to the charity of your choice.

VERNON, G.▲▼ Patrick▲▼ H.▲▼
(Hons. B.A., LL.B., Q.C., Doctor of Sacred Letters)
On Wednesday, August 3, 2005, Patrick passed away at home, in the loving arms of his family, after a courageous 13-year battle with cancer. He was a survivor of prostate cancer owing to early detection and treatment. Patrick will be greatly missed by his family, Deborah Smith VERNON, his wife of fifty years, children Catherine Harcourt MARTIN, Geoffrey William Harcourt VERNON, Susan▲▼ Elizabeth▲▼ Vernon▲▼ PELLERIN, their spouses/partners Robert MARTIN, Johnny▲▼ BRYAN, and Denis PELLERIN, and grandchildren Richard, Taylor and Scott MARTIN, Caitlin▲▼ and Julia VERNON, and Sarah and Lucie PELLERIN. Born to Arthur Arundel Harcourt VERNON and Margaret Cayley Harcourt VERNON on November 15, 1926, Patrick attended Jarvis Collegiate, Trinity College School, Trinity College, and Osgoode Hall Law School, becoming a corporate lawyer and a partner at McCarthy Tétrault. In 1981 Patrick was called to the Bar of Alberta, and took up residence in Calgary. He became the managing partner of a new law firm, Black and Company, which ultimately became part of McCarthy Tétrault, the national law firm. Patrick was the consummate community service advocate and volunteered his time and talents to the organizations in which he believed. He was a Life Governor of Trinity College School, a volunteer worker and chief fundraiser for the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada, and served on a number of charitable foundations and boards. In 1995 he was appointed for four years to the Ontario Securities Commission, and from 2001 to the present, served as a director of the Ontario Pension Board. In September 2004, Patrick received the honorary degree, Doctor of Sacred Letters at Trinity College, Toronto, in recognition of his service to the School, the Church and the community. An avid historian, Patrick published two books, "The Bells of Old York", which outlines the change-ringing bells, the installation of which he co-ordinated, at The Cathedral Church of St. James, and "Ladywood", a compilation of diaries relating to the 100-year history of the Vernon summer residence on Lake Simcoe. Patrick enjoyed travelling, fishing, skiing, playing billiards, card games and tennis with family and Friends. He had conservation and other projects on the go at his and Debby's beloved "Hilltop House" near Uxbridge, Ontario, and was always happy to spend "grandfather time" with his seven grandchildren. A service to celebrate Patrick's life will be held at 11 a.m., Thursday, August 11, 2005 at The Cathedral Church of St. James, 65 Church Street (at King St. E.). The family wishes to thank Dr. Douglas ROBERTSON, the doctors and caregivers at Princess Margaret Hospital, the Toronto General Hospital, Integracare, and the Temmy Latner Centre for Palliative Care. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation or giving your personal time to the charity of your choice.
