his beloved United Church of Canada, serving congregations in

& Britannia, Ottawa; Stoney Creek; Metropolitan, Toronto; and
Westdale, Hamilton. After retirement, he continued his faith
work with interim ministries in Pilgrim Uniting and Maughan Uniting

love of teaching also led him to Christian Education and Youth
Work roles within the national church, including the Toronto
Boys' Work Board and Hamilton Conference C.E. His life of service,
leavened with humour and a passionate interest in those around
him, touched the lives of many people. Douglas also took a leadership
role in the courts of the United Church through presidencies
of the Ottawa Presbytery, Toronto Presbytery and Hamilton Conference.
Blessed with a scholar's enquiring mind and passionate about
theology, he pursued knowledge throughout his working life, achieving
a PhD from the University of Ottawa, and an honorary D.D. from
Victoria University, Toronto. Douglas shared a constant and abiding
love with Ethel Mary

56 years of marriage. He also gave loving inspiration and guidance

BIGELOW,
Wilfred▼
Gordon▼
After a life lived with caring, intellectual curiosity and a
profound sense of spirituality, Bill died peacefully in Toronto
on Easter Sunday 2005. Born in Brandon, Manitoba, Bill was the
son of Dr. Wilfred
BIGELOW, founder of the first medical clinic
in Canada, and Grace
GORDON, nurse and midwife. He was raised
in an environment that encouraged a love of family, nature, music
and education. Bill attended Brandon College in the early 1930's
and graduated from medicine at the University of Toronto in 1938.
Following this, he served overseas as a Captain in the Royal
Canadian Medical Army Corps, performing battle surgery on the
frontlines. Returning home from the war, he furthered his studies
at John Hopkins in Baltimore, Maryland specializing in cardiac
surgery. His experiences in the war with amputations due to frostbite
led him to explore the principle of hypothermia. He felt strongly
that to make progress in cardiac surgery, surgeons needed to
open the heart and operate directly. Building on his wartime
experiences, he theorized that if you could cool the heart, you
could reduce oxygen requirements, interrupt circulation and open
the heart. In 1947, Bill returned to Toronto, and established
a hypothermia research unit at The Banting Institute. There,
he performed the world's first open heart surgery on a dog using
the principal of hypothermia, paving the way for its use on humans.
At his lab, Dr.
BIGELOW and his colleagues Dr. John
CALLAGHAN
and Dr. John
HOPPS also developed the cardiac pacemaker. Bill
was recognized internationally as the father of Canadian heart
surgery. He received the Gairdner Foundation Award in 1959, was
inducted into the Canadian Medical Association's Hall of Fame
in 1997 and into the Order of Canada in 1981. Bill published
numerous medical articles in scientific journals, educated aspiring
cardiac surgeons from around the world, and authored two books,
Cold Hearts and Mysterious Heparin. Along with his passion for
medicine, Bill will be remembered for his love of the outdoors
and his work on environmental causes. He served as a director
of the Audubon Society and the Nature Conservancy of Canada.
He spent many happy hours on the islands of Georgian Bay, and
at his farm in Collingwood with his beloved family, horses and
dogs. He was an avid bird watcher who went on frequent field
trips with his longtime friend Dr. Bruce
CHARLES. In his latter
years, he enjoyed many happy hours with his golf buddies at the
Toronto Hunt Club. First and foremost, Bill was a family man
and a devoted and loyal friend to many. He was predeceased by
his beloved wife of almost 60 years, Ruth
JENNINGS, who attracted
his attention as a caring and efficient operating nurse at Toronto
General Hospital. He was also predeceased by his infant brother
Jack, and his sisters Mary
GRANT
(Millard,▼) and Toody
McKINNON
(Keith.▼) He is survived by his brother Dr. Dan
BIGELOW and his
wife Dr.▼
Sonia▼
SACEDA. As a loving father and grandfather, Bill
led by example, demonstrating the importance of loyalty and the
power of positive thinking and perseverance. He will be deeply
missed by his daughter Pixie Bigelow
CURRIE
(Ian▼) of Toronto,
and sons, John (Ellie) of Honolulu, Hawaii, Dan (Blanche) of
Petersfield, Manitoba, and Bill of Toronto. He is remembered
with affection by his grandchildren Scott
CURRIE
(Sarah,▼)
Susanne▼
COUTTS (Rob), Mathew
BIGELOW, and Angela
BEATTON (Don) and his
nieces, nephews and their families. Bill adored children and
was delighted with the birth of his three great grandchildren,

CURRIE.
The▼ family recognizes
with gratitude his caregivers Alma

1940, enlisted in the regular army with the rank of lieutenant
in the South Alberta Regiment. Promoted to major, he was put
in command of a small mixed force on August 18, 1944, and ordered
to block one of the main escape routes used by thousands of Germans
to flee the Battle of Falaise in Normandy. For 36 hours, his
vastly outnumbered unit repulsed repeated attacks. Despite heavy
casualties, he refused to give way and knocked out seven enemy
tanks, 12 heavy guns and 40 vehicles. German casualties amounted
to 800 killed or wounded and 1,100 captured, a number of whom
were high-ranking officers. The action helped trap two German
armies. He was awarded the Victoria Cross and promoted to lieutenant-colonel.
After the war, he spent eight years in Baie-Comeau, Quebec, as
equipment superintendent of a paper company. In 1953, he moved
to Montreal and joined a manufacturing company, where he became
vice-president. In 1959, he was appointed Sergeant-at-Arms of
the House of Commons. He died in Ottawa and is buried in Greenwood
Cemetery in Owen Sound, Ontario

Gus CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER, Sergeant-At-Arms (1935-2005)
The House of Commons' longest-serving sergeant-at-arms presented
the image of a man one would not wisely cross. He ran Parliament
Hill as a 'private fiefdom'
By Tom HAWTHORN,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Saturday, September
3, 2005, Page S7
Gus CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER paraded daily into the House of Commons with a military
bearing befitting a retired major-general. As sergeant-at-arms,
Mr. CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER handled responsibilities ranging from security to
the allotment of parking slots. His duties that gave him much
control over the day-to-day lives of members of Parliament, a
power exercised out of public sight.
More conspicuous was Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER's role in leading the parades
that open and close a day's sitting. In preceding the Speaker
on entering and leaving the House, the sergeant-at-arms carries
the ceremonial mace, a symbol of authority.
Dressed in a black court coat and a tricorne hat, the mace gripped
by his right hand as it rested on his right shoulder, a ceremonial
sword carried at his left hip, with service ribbons on his breast
adding a dash of colour, Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER presented the image of
a man one would not wisely cross. For all that, his long tenure
as sergeant-at-arms coincided with a breakdown in traditional
parliamentary behaviour. On two occasions, members grabbed the
mace, a shocking breach of decorum considered a gross contempt
of Parliament.
Mr. CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER was the longest-serving sergeant-at-arms since Confederation.
His 27-year tenure surpassed that of the other seven men to have
held the position.
A long climb through the ranks of the armed forces prepared him
well for doing battle with civilians, as Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER proved
a wily adversary in bureaucratic squabbles.
Born in Drummondville, Quebec, Maurice Gaston
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER was educated
at Mount Allison University at Sackville, New Brunswick, and,
later, at the University of Liege in Belgium. He enlisted in
the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1952 while still a teenager,
and married Joan
CAHILL of Summerside, Prince Edward Island,
before he was 20.
Serving as a navigator with Maritime Air Command, Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER
became an air instructor at the Air Navigation School at Winnipeg
in 1960. He was appointed resident staff officer at Laval University
at Quebec City two years later.
Mr. CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER relocated to Europe in 1964, serving as protocol
chief for the armed forces. He was also appointed executive assistant
to the commander of the Royal Canadian Air Force air division.
After graduating from the Canadian Forces staff college in 1969,
Mr. CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER was named bilingual policy adviser to the personnel
chief. He was promoted to the rank of major-general in 1975.
He became executive assistant to Liberal defence minister Donald
MacDONALD in 1970, remaining in the post under Edgar
BENSON,
C.M. (Bud)
DRURY,
James
RICHARDSON and Barnett (Barney)
DANSON.
The retired general was appointed sergeant-at-arms on April 27,
1978, by Pierre
TRUDEAU, the first of seven prime ministers for
whose security on Parliament Hill he was responsible. Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER
succeeded David
CURRIE, a decorated war hero awarded the Victoria
Cross who had been sergeant-at-arms for 18 years.
As the official Commons guard, the sergeant-at-arms places the
mace on a table before the Speaker. He then sits patiently throughout
proceedings adjacent to the entrance to the House. The role of
sergeant-at-arms carries with it a centuries-old responsibility
for security, hence the mace and sword.
Yet, one of Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER's first public statements regarded the
diminished size of the Christmas tree installed in the lobby
of the House. Several controversies generated headlines in his
first years. A stern report from the auditor-general was highly
critical of Parliament's administration, noting an annual $3.5-million
deficit from restaurants and cafeterias.
Mr. CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER was soon embroiled in a public squabble over spending
with Speaker Jeanne
SAUVÉ.
Without her knowledge, he had ordered
$10,000 of riot gear, including vests, helmets, handcuffs and
12-gauge shotguns. He had also neglected to inform her of the
creation of a new restaurant to address overcrowding in Parliament's
main dining room. Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER opened an elegant, 70-seat restaurant
for senior bureaucrats in the South Block in 1980. The first-class
restaurant served $2.75 gourmet meals, a bargain for top mandarins
as each meal served cost $12 in subsidies.
The Speaker called the restaurant scandalous, ordered it closed
(after having allowed it at first to remain open), and issued
a public rebuke of the sergeant-at-arms' spending habits.
An attempt soon after to end wasteful spending left Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER
with egg on his face. A special Commons-Senate committee decided
laying off 30 cafeteria workers would save money. But members
of Parliament and bureaucrats proved sadly incapable of tidying
up after themselves, and the federal health department sent a
letter of reprimand to the sergeant-at-arms insisting the unhygienic
practice not continue.
Over the years, Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER has also had to sweep offices for
bugging devices, and ordered walls rebuilt to prevent eavesdropping
among rival caucuses and research staffs.
Two incidents in 2002 raised questions about security in the
wake of the previous year's attacks on New York and Washington.
A protester crashed the official unveiling of former prime minister
Brian Mulroney's portrait. Two weeks later, a man left a grenade
at the front desk of the Langevin Block, across the street from
Parliament Hill and outside of the sergeant-at-arms' jurisdiction.
At the adjournment of the House on October 30, 1991, Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER
shouldered the mace when rushed by an member of Parliament. Angered
by a ruling by the deputy speaker, New Democrat Ian
WADDELL tried
to grab the mace from the sergeant-at-arms.
An apologetic Mr.
WADDELL was called to stand at the bar of the
House the next afternoon, where he was reprimanded for a breach
of privilege and gross contempt of the House.
In 2002, member of Parliament Keith
MARTIN, then with the Canadian
Alliance, touched the mace in protest the loss off his private
member's bill on marijuana decriminalization. He was censured
by the House.
In 2002, all five parties in the House paid tribute to Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER
for his 50 years of public service. (By coincidence, the honour
came 11 years to the day after the
WADDELL incident.) The unanimity
among the speakers led Progressive Conservative leader Joe
CLARK
to quip: "Mr. Speaker, it is a good thing there are only five
parties in the House or these tributes could cause an outbreak
of order."
Earlier that month, Mr.
CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER co-ordinated the royal visit
to Canada as the Canadian Secretary to the Queen. He became the
longest-serving sergeant-at-arms since Confederation last year,
surpassing the 26-year tenure of Henry Robert
SMITH (1892-1917.)
Mr. CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER took his responsibilities most seriously. In December,
1995, a Liberal member of Parliament in a Santa Claus costume
and accompanied by an elf arrived on the floor of the House to
spread bonhomie. Hansard reporters captured the interruption
in typically understated fashion, inserting a note in the account
of daily proceedings. It read: "Editor's note: Whereupon a visitor
in red entered the Chamber."
The sergeant-at-arms, perhaps not fully appreciating the spirit
of the season, gave the bum's rush to Santa, ushering Stan
DROMISKY
off the floor.
Gus CLOUTIER/CLOUTHIER was born on June 6, 1935, at Drummondville, Quebec
He died of colon cancer on Tuesday at the Elizabeth Bruyere Health
Centre at Ottawa. He was 70. He is survived by his partner, Mary-Lynn
GALLANT. He also leaves son Michael, and daughter, Nancy, as
well as their mother, Joan, from whom he was separated.

BIGELOW,
Wilfred▲
Gordon▲
After a life lived with caring, intellectual curiosity and a
profound sense of spirituality, Bill died peacefully in Toronto
on Easter Sunday 2005. Born in Brandon, Manitoba, Bill was the
son of Dr. Wilfred
BIGELOW, founder of the first medical clinic
in Canada, and Grace
GORDON, nurse and midwife. He was raised
in an environment that encouraged a love of family, nature, music
and education. Bill attended Brandon College in the early 1930's
and graduated from medicine at the University of Toronto in 1938.
Following this, he served overseas as a Captain in the Royal
Canadian Medical Army Corps, performing battle surgery on the
frontlines. Returning home from the war, he furthered his studies
at John Hopkins in Baltimore, Maryland specializing in cardiac
surgery. His experiences in the war with amputations due to frostbite
led him to explore the principle of hypothermia. He felt strongly
that to make progress in cardiac surgery, surgeons needed to
open the heart and operate directly. Building on his wartime
experiences, he theorized that if you could cool the heart, you
could reduce oxygen requirements, interrupt circulation and open
the heart. In 1947, Bill returned to Toronto, and established
a hypothermia research unit at The Banting Institute. There,
he performed the world's first open heart surgery on a dog using
the principal of hypothermia, paving the way for its use on humans.
At his lab, Dr.
BIGELOW and his colleagues Dr. John
CALLAGHAN
and Dr. John
HOPPS also developed the cardiac pacemaker. Bill
was recognized internationally as the father of Canadian heart
surgery. He received the Gairdner Foundation Award in 1959, was
inducted into the Canadian Medical Association's Hall of Fame
in 1997 and into the Order of Canada in 1981. Bill published
numerous medical articles in scientific journals, educated aspiring
cardiac surgeons from around the world, and authored two books,
Cold Hearts and Mysterious Heparin. Along with his passion for
medicine, Bill will be remembered for his love of the outdoors
and his work on environmental causes. He served as a director
of the Audubon Society and the Nature Conservancy of Canada.
He spent many happy hours on the islands of Georgian Bay, and
at his farm in Collingwood with his beloved family, horses and
dogs. He was an avid bird watcher who went on frequent field
trips with his longtime friend Dr. Bruce
CHARLES. In his latter
years, he enjoyed many happy hours with his golf buddies at the
Toronto Hunt Club. First and foremost, Bill was a family man
and a devoted and loyal friend to many. He was predeceased by
his beloved wife of almost 60 years, Ruth
JENNINGS, who attracted
his attention as a caring and efficient operating nurse at Toronto
General Hospital. He was also predeceased by his infant brother
Jack, and his sisters Mary
GRANT
(Millard,▲) and Toody
McKINNON
(Keith.▲) He is survived by his brother Dr. Dan
BIGELOW and his
wife Dr.▲
Sonia▲
SACEDA. As a loving father and grandfather, Bill
led by example, demonstrating the importance of loyalty and the
power of positive thinking and perseverance. He will be deeply
missed by his daughter Pixie Bigelow
CURRIE
(Ian▲) of Toronto,
and sons, John (Ellie) of Honolulu, Hawaii, Dan (Blanche) of
