Actor's death stuns Playhouse audience
By Joe MATYAS, Free Press Reporter
Huron Country Playhouse in Grand Bend went dark on the weekend after a veteran actor collapsed on stage and later died.
Terry DOYLE, 71, suffered a fatal heart attack 15 minutes into Friday's opening-night performance of Beauty and the Beast, said Steven KARCHER, marketing director of Drayton Entertainment.
"It was a sad and shocking event," he said yesterday. "We had to stop the performance and evacuate the theatre."
The audience was quiet and respectful as it left, he said.
"It was a full house of about 650 people. They were very concerned about Terry's condition. The cast and crew were devastated."
KARCHER said DOYLE was taken by ambulance to South Huron Hospital in Exeter, where he was pronounced dead.
DOYLE was cast as Maurice, father of Belle, the beauty, a key secondary role.
It was a role he performed in the original Canadian production in Toronto and in London's West End in England, KARCHER said.
"Terry has appeared in many Drayton Entertainment productions since the organization's first season in 1991," he added. "Our circle of actors is very much a tight-knit family. We've all lost a great friend as well as a great performer."
Alex MUSTAKAS, artistic director and Drayton's chief executive, was a close friend, said KARCHER.
"Terry has been a great mentor to me throughout the years," said MUSTAKAS.
"I've known him and worked with him for about 25 years. He was one of those guys who lit up everyone around him. He was loved by all and will be missed by all.
"I respect him deeply as a performer and, even more so, for how he lived his life off the stage. He was a man of honour, passion and integrity."
MUSTAKAS said DOYLE was a theatrical performer who could "do it all. He could act, he could sing and he was very good in comedy."
His Drayton roles included major parts in Hurray for Hollywood, Show Stoppers, The Sunshine Boys and Over the River and Through the Woods.
DOYLE's early career was in community theatre in Guelph, Kitchener and Waterloo where he appeared in musical productions, said MUSTAKAS.
"He was widely known in the theatre community. I've already received e-mails and phone calls about his passing from as far away as England, France and New York City."
His television career included various sitcom roles, appearances on E.N.G., Maniac Mansion, War of the Worlds, Night Heat and many others.
KARCHER said two Saturday productions, a matinee and evening show, were cancelled after the curtain fell prematurely Friday.
No performances were scheduled for yesterday.
"They were all sold-out productions," he said, adding every ticket holder has been offered an alternative date.
MUSTAKAS said there was no understudy for DOYLE.
"It's not generally done because summer theatres run a show for only five or six weeks."
By coincidence, the performer who understudied DOYLE in the original Toronto production, Sandy WINSBY, has a small part in the Drayton production.
"He's quickly reacquainting himself with the role of Maurice," said MUSTAKAS, adding the show will go on with student matinees this week.
DOYLE is survived by his wife, Joyce, sons David and Michael and five grandchildren.
The family plans a memorial service in about a week, MUSTAKAS said. "When the dust settles, we'll be honouring his memory, too," he said of the theatre community.

DOYLE, Olive Celine (née SADLIER) (18 January 1928-25 August With the greatest sadness, the family of Olive Celine DOYLE announces her passing on 25 August 2005. At the end, Olive slipped quietly away, with her sisters Eileen FAGAN of Ireland and Dolores WILLIS of England at her side. Her last weeks were spent with many members of her far-flung family and circle of Friends, and we know that made her happy and peaceful.
Olive spent the last years of her life gracefully fighting several extremely difficult battles, while always maintaining her lifelong commitment to independence. Always ready to offer help, she was staunchly determined to accept little for herself. Born late in the queue to a large, happy family in Dublin, Ireland, Olive grew up and lived well-loved. She was passionate about music, and is known to all her Friends and family as a shy but beautiful singer. She was devoted to her God in her quiet way. Naturally, she had a career (ever independent), and her work as a nurse satisfied her need to give for many years. To the very end of her life, she practiced her greatest pleasure - travelling. It's only a month since she returned from a wonderful visit to Ireland. Olive's passing was, in the end, just as she wanted; quiet, safe, and peaceful. Her family extends its sincerest thanks to the staff of the Palliative Care Unit at Parkwood Hospital for making this possible, and welcoming us (even to letting us camp out) as if we were at home. Farewell, our sweetest Olive of the laughing eyes; we will miss you always. "Abhaile do mo chroi". Visitors will be received at John T. Donohue Funeral Home, 362 Waterloo St at King St, London on Friday from 2-4 and 7-9 o'clock. Funeral Mass at St. Peter's Basilica, 196 Dufferin Ave, Saturday morning at 10: 30 o'clock.

Pete PALANGIO, National Hockey League Forward 1908-2004
Lad from North Bay, Ontario, played just a few short years in the major league but came out of it with both a Stanley Cup and a shrewd business sense
By Danny GALLAGHER, Special▼ to The Globe and Mail, Friday, January 21, 2005 - Page S7
Toronto -- He was Mr. Hockey in North Bay, Ontario, the Italian Adonis in St. Louis, Missouri, a Stanley Cup winner as a Chicago Blackhawk and a fleeting but unforgotten footnote in the annals of the Montreal Canadiens.
Even as Pete PALANGIO entered his 97th year of life, mail would arrive twice weekly at his home in North Bay. Fans knew about his exploits in St. Louis but they remembered, too, that he was the oldest surviving player from the National Hockey League's pre-expansion six. No wonder they wanted his signature.
While he achieved more success with the Chicago Blackhawks than he did with the Canadiens, neither the Montreal organization nor its alumni ever forgot him. Mr. PALANGIO played only eight games with the most storied franchise in hockey history but had no qualms about which National Hockey League team was his favourite. Montreal, he said, was the best team he ever played for. On March 15, 1996, Mr. PALANGIO, wonky knees and all, was celebrated at the Canadiens centre ice along with Guy Lafleur and Henri (The Pocket Rocket) Richard. The response by the fans was tremendous. Overwhelmed and feeling embarrassed, Mr. PALANGIO said he nearly fainted.
About 70 years had passed since he had stood on the ice as a Canadien. In 1926, he had been a star of junior hockey in North Bay when the Montreal club came calling. As a harbinger of things to come, Mr. PALANGIO proved to be a astute negotiator. Unimpressed by their first offer, he refused to sign. Then the tall, big-boned forward went home to North Bay to score 12 goals in three back-to-back playoff games and suddenly found himself talking turkey with Canadiens owner Leo Dandurand. That time, Mr. PALANGIO was promised a $1,100 signing bonus and a $4,250 contract for the remaining 11 games of the 1926-27 season. He dressed for six games but mostly rode the pine. The following season, Mr. PALANGIO played minor-league hockey in Windsor, Ontario and didn't return to the National Hockey League until 1928-29 when he dressed for two more games. According to a photograph of that season's Canadiens, Mr. PALANGIO was the only "spare" on a team of 14 players.
As it turned out, Mr. PALANGIO didn't fully arrive in the National Hockey League until mid-way through the 1936-37 season when he agreed to join the Blackhawks in a transaction with the minor-league St. Louis Flyers, who were owned by the Canadiens. The move to the Blackhawks was made reluctantly. Mr. PALANGIO loved playing in St. Louis -- he was making good coin and was much loved and admired for his scoring touch, quiet grace and manner. He stood 6-foot-1, a strapping and handsome player described by one St. Louis writer as a "gorgeous beauty show." He could produce as many as 30 goals and 20 assists in one 48-game season.
"I was the highest paid player on the St. Louis team and I had an apartment, free," Mr. PALANGIO said in an interview in 1998. "It's the best place I ever played in... it had a large Italian population, so I was right at home."
He also thoroughly enjoyed the kind of genuine affection only a minor-league club can indulge. "They had a special night, one time," he once related. "They had me come out to centre ice and there was a big horseshoe of flowers. They had me standing in the middle of it."
St. Louis had its other heroes, too. Among them was baseball legend Yogi Berra, whom Mr. PALANGIO came to know. Whenever he wanted hockey tickets, Pete PALANGIO was happy to oblige. Also among Mr. PALANGIO's admirers was Joe Garagiola, a young fan who would go on to enjoy a career in baseball.
"Pete was a battler, a never-give-up kind of player," said Mr. Garagiola, who later became a successful sport broadcaster. "To use a phrase from the 1990s, he was a role model as a hockey player. One thing about his work ethic, he was always hustling."
The Blackhawks had followed Mr. PALANGIO's career with interest he had collected 12 goals and 12 assists in the team's first 16 games -- and in December, 1936, he agreed to be traded even though he would earn only $15,000 in the National Hockey League, compared to $18,000 in St. Louis. He left behind a regretful St. Louis, which had taken to calling him the Italian Adonis. One local writer likened Mr. PALANGIO's departure to the "kidnapping" of a star.
What made the transaction palatable was an agreement Mr. PALANGIO had extracted from St. Louis. As a result of shrewd negotiating he had won a verbal promise that he would be given half the purchase price if his rights were picked up by an National Hockey League club. So, when the Blackhawks paid $25,000 to acquire him, he expected to receive $12,500. Initially, Blackhawks president and part-owner Fred McLaughlin hedged on the deal but Mr. PALANGIO approached National Hockey League president Frank Calder, who knew all about the clause. Mr. Calder told Mr. McLaughlin to pay up.
Recruited to finish the 1936-37 season, he managed eight goals and nine assists and by the following season he was part of the arsenal the Blackhawks had prepared for an assault on the Stanley Cup. Sadly, that run at the cup was marred by one of the game's most tragic events -- an accident that ended the career of the legendary Howie Morenz. Mr. PALANGIO, a former friend of Mr. Morenz's in Montreal, was playing for Chicago on January 28, 1937, when Mr. Morenz slammed into the boards after one of his patented rushes and smashed his leg. Mr. PALANGIO said it was the worst injury he ever witnessed. Less than two months later, Mr. Morenz died from heart failure after suffering a nervous breakdown.
Other dramas unfolded, too, not to mention an argument between coaches that almost came to blows. During a preliminary game, Blackhawks goalie Mike Karakas had suffered a broken toe. His replacement, announced manager and coach Bill Stewart, would be a hastily borrowed, hotshot performer from the New York Rangers. Not so, protested Conn Smithe of the Maple Leafs. Tempers flared and a shoving match quickly developed. In the end, the Hawks settled for Alfie Moore, a second-string goaltender from the New York Americans whom the Leafs fully expected to sweep aside. As it turned out, Mr. Moore triumphed but was somehow ruled ineligible for the next game. At a loss for a goalie, the Hawks found a rookie in the minors and promptly went down in defeat. By then, however, a resourceful and determined Mr. Karakas had fashioned a modified skate for his injured foot and the Hawks went on to win the best-of-five series three games to one.
"I got my name inscribed on the Stanley Cup," Mr. PALANGIO said proudly in 1998. "We beat the Maple Leafs."
As it turned out, he never again played in another National Hockey League game. At the beginning of the next season, his talents were badly needed by a bush-league club that lacked consistent scorers. Pete PALANGIO happily obliged and he ended up remaining in the minors where he would always be a star and where, in the final analysis, the money was better. In his final five seasons of pro hockey, he toiled for such teams as the Tulsa Oilers, Dallas Texans, Hershey Bears and Pittsburgh Hornets.
After the 1942-43 season, he returned home to North Bay and purchased the North Bay Trappers' junior hockey team. Later, he operated Palangio Motors, a Chrysler dealership, for 15 years and also owned and operated a successful vending-machine business. In 1985, he sold the vending business to Beaver Foods and if he wasn't a millionaire, Pete PALANGIO was close to it.
Naturally enough, he made many business Friends over the years. Someone he came to know was Morris Snyder. Once, when Mr. Snyder was down on his luck and his wife was in hospital for delicate disc surgery, Mr. PALANGIO showed up with $3,000. "There were 30 one-hundred-dollar bills," recalled Mr. Snyder. "What he did tells you about the kind of guy he is." They became best Friends.
Mr. PALANGIO enjoyed a long retirement. For decades, the gracious, gentlemanly figure with the low, raspy voice donned a suit every day at home. There was always the possibility of visitors and, as it happened, many came calling. Among them were Guy Lafleur and Henri Richard.
In 1991, North Bay named its Doublerinks complex in Mr. PALANGIO's honour, prompting a letter from his long-ago fan Joe Garagiola.
"Our fathers wouldn't think of buying shoes for us that we couldn't wear to church, so to buy a pair of shoes with blades on the soles was out of the question," wrote Mr. Garagiola, who grew up in St. Louis during Mr. PALANGIO's years as the Italian Adonis. "But we still had to have our hero in the winter time and that hero was you. We had Pete PALANGIO for our hero and that made us pretty lucky kids."
Pete PALANGIO was born in North Bay, Ontario, on September 10, 1908. He died there on December 24, 2004. He was 96. He was predeceased by two wives, Dorothy DOYLE and Irene PALANGIO. He is survived by son Pete and by daughters Silvia and Rhondi.

Terry DOYLE, Actor: 1933-2005
Guelph, Ontario, performer preferred stage roles to Hollywood. 'The only time I like being in front of the camera is on payday.'
Canadian Press, Tuesday, June 7, 2005, Page S7
Guelph, Ontario -- He was a home-grown actor from Guelph, Ontario, who once said he wanted to "act forever" and in a way he did. Terry DOYLE died on stage during a performance of Beauty and the Beast in nearby Grand Bend on Friday night.
"We are devastated that we have lost one of Canada's most talented and brilliant stage performers," said Alex MUSTAKAS, artistic director of Drayton Entertainment, which produced the Grand Bend show. "Many of us loved Terry. He was quite an inspiration to local actors and he was well-respected throughout Canada."
Mr. DOYLE found his biggest success on stage after being cast in the role of Maurice, Belle's father, in a stage production of Beauty and the Beast at England's prestigious Dominion Theatre in 1998. Over the years, he was also in such movies as The Good Fight and Change of Heart.
Raised in Southern Ontario, he started acting in Guelph more than 50 years ago at the Guelph Little Theatre. Years later, he referred to that time as "the launching pad" for an international career.
Keith SLATER, who was part of those early Guelph Little Theatre days, said it took courage for his friend to take the first step into acting.
"He must have ridden his bicycle around the old theatre about 20 times, then plucked up the courage to come in," Mr. SLATER said. "He was a bundle of nerves before a show, but when he'd step over the threshold of the stage lights, you could guarantee he would pull it out."
The stage is where he also found romance. In 1958, he met his wife Joyce while both were performing in a production of My Sister Eileen, a popular stage play that three years earlier had been made into a movie starring Jack Lemmon and Janet Leigh.
His television career included various sitcom roles, appearances on E.N.G., Maniac Mansion, War of the Worlds, Night Heat, Street Legal and the part of a coroner in Alfred Hitchcock Presents. His first television role occurred in a 1980 episode of The Littlest Hobo.
"I never pictured myself as a movie star," he once said. "The only time I like being in front of the camera is on payday."
For all that, he enjoyed his share of roles (frequently in the part of a priest or a grandfather) on the silver screen, starting with Recommendation for Mercy in 1975 and culminating with The Spreading Ground of 2000. Among other movie titles, some of which were made for television were Alley Cats Strike, (2000) The Good Fight (1992) Change of Heart (1992) Kaleidoscope (1990) Prom Night III: The Last Kiss (1989) and Night Friend (1987) and Recommendation for Mercy (1975).
Mr. DOYLE said the secret of life is to "do something you like to do and get paid for it." He said his favourite role was that of Matthew in Anne of Green Gables.
Terry DOYLE was born in Guelph, Ontario, on June 29, 1933. He died of a heart attack during an opening-night performance of Disney's Beauty and the Beast at the Huron Country Playhouse in Grand Bend, Ontario, on June 3, 2005. He was 71. He is survived by his wife, Joyce, and by sons Michael and David, and by five grandchildren.

I Remember -- Terry DOYLE
By Lee MASTER, Monday, June 13, 2005, Page S6
Guelph, Ontario -- Lee MASTER of Guelph, Ontario, writes about actor Terry DOYLE, whose obituary appeared on June 7.
I enjoyed the avuncular Terry DOYLE on stage any number of times but the performance I admired most was at the Guelph Collegiate and Vocational Institute where, for a couple of years in the late 1940s, along with Neal JOTHAM, we were pals. At the end of the school day, the three of us would walk up and then down Paisley Street to the Royal Dairy Milk Bar for milkshakes and mockery. Terry's taste was for vanilla and gentle. Already in high school, the rehearsal for adult life, Terry had the witty, twinkly, understated nice-guy role down pat.

Joe DOYLE, Athlete And Poet (1912-2005)
He was one of the first players to slice the ice at Maple Leaf Gardens -- as a lacrosse player -- and played hockey in England but was considered too small for the National Hockey League
By Danny GALLAGHER, Special▲ to The Globe and Mail, Wednesday, August 24, 2005, Page S7
Toronto -- He cherished the meeting and photo-taking session he had with Maurice Richard and the time he was feted at a banquet when his idol, Jean Beliveau, showed up to pay homage to him. Joe DOYLE was not the calibre of those two Montreal Canadiens legends on the ice. But whether it was speed skating, lacrosse, hockey, musical entertainment or poetry, he was a master of all of them.
The 5-foot-5-inch athlete was rated the fastest lacrosse skater in the 1930s in Canada when skates, not shoes, were the norm in footwear around the time box lacrosse was introduced in 1933. He was a flash on blades -- considered even speedier than National Hockey League star Howie Morenz, who had earned the moniker The Stratford Streak.
Mr. DOYLE's roots lay in Toronto, where he attended East Riverdale High School. It was there that he won the Toronto city championship in speed skating in both the 220-yard and 440-yard sprints. He also played forward in the Ontario Hockey Association's Big Four junior loop with the Toronto Canoe Club against the Marlboros, Varsity and Parkdale Community Club.
Mr. DOYLE was one of the first players to slice the ice at the new Maple Leaf Gardens -- as a lacrosse player for the Toronto Nationals. He helped the Nationals to the city of Toronto championship in 1933 and he would ply his trade at the Gardens many times thereafter with such other teams as the Leslie Grads and National Sea Fleas.
"I remember watching the construction of the Gardens as I passed every day on my way to school," Mr. DOYLE told the Sherbrooke Record 20 years ago. "Then the first thing I knew, we were playing there. Those coloured seats caught my eye, as we had never seen such a grand arena before. We played in the Gardens for Canada's Diamond Jubilee celebration."
In 1932, he was offered a place on Canada's speed-skating team at the 1932 Olympics but chose, instead, to continue his lacrosse and hockey career. "Joe DOYLE, one of the most prominent athletes in Toronto's East End, is certainly a star lacrosse and hockey player, playing in the junior Ontario Hockey Association at 16. He's something to be proud of and we hope he does not get a swelled head as he has the goods," wrote Toronto reporter Len SMITH.
During the 1936 lacrosse season, Mr. DOYLE was the star attraction for the Cornwall Islanders, and the highlight was his seven-goal, 10-point performance in a 22-14 win over Ottawa in the Eastern Ontario Amateur Lacrosse Association.
It was not uncommon, as newspaper reports indicated, that Mr. DOYLE would fashion numerous, multi-goal games in a lacrosse game for Cornwall. While lacrosse on skates was in vogue for some time, it was abandoned when it was considered too dangerous. On one occasion, Mr. DOYLE suffered a serious bash in the mouth. "Jake Buckshot nailed me with his lacrosse stick during a game one time and I never did figure out which country my teeth stayed in as we were playing in St. Regis Island in Quebec, where the playing surface spread across a bit of Quebec, Ontario and New York state," Mr. DOYLE said years later.
After he finished his lacrosse season in 1936, Mr. DOYLE decided to play intermediate hockey for the Cornwall Flyers of the Ottawa Senior Hockey League, an upscale component of the Ottawa District Hockey Association.
While the goals in hockey were less plentiful than those he scored in lacrosse, Mr. DOYLE was still a very useful ice artist for coach Billy Boucher, the former Montreal Canadiens star.
The▼ following year, Mr. DOYLE was back in a lacrosse uniform for Cornwall. He then decided to play the 1937-38 hockey season with the Brighton Rebels of the English Hockey League, following Mr. Boucher, who was coach of the team. He played all across Europe with Brighton, including two goal scored against The Hague. He also recalled being intimidated by the fierce noise of the opening ceremonies at a game in Düsseldorf.
"There were swastikas everywhere, a 21-gun salute was fired and Rudolph Hess [Nazi party deputy leader] took the salute," Mr. DOYLE said years later. "I have to admit even though there was already talk of war, the whole picture was rather frightening and brought home the fact to us all."
Mr. DOYLE didn't play with Brighton again, nor did he crack the lineup of an National Hockey League team. Size-wise, he just wasn't up to it. "Because I was only 5-foot-5, 140 pounds, it didn't help me in graduating to the National Hockey League," he said. "In that era, it wasn't easy getting to the National Hockey League. The teams were very good."
When the Second World War broke out in 1939, Mr. DOYLE decided to stay in Canada, where he met his future wife, Laura, and settled in Richmond, Quebec, in the Eastern Townships. He continued to play intermediate hockey, while plunging into full-time employment. He worked for five years with Canadian National Railways and later was employed by Brown's Shoes in Richmond for 18 years until he retired at 65.
Three years after he retired, Mr. DOYLE took four years of English courses at Bishop's University in Lennoxville, Quebec, where he liked to join the varsity hockey team's practice sessions, prompting younger players to marvel at his magic and ability on ice. At 70, he also played for a Richmond team called The Last Chance.
On January 11, 1985, Mr. DOYLE's exploits were recognized when he was feted at a reception where Jean Beliveau was the main speaker. At centre ice before a local game, Mr. Beliveau stunned Mr. DOYLE by presenting him with a Canadiens sweater that bore the number 72 on the back.
"I have attended all kinds of events and evenings of this kind across the world," Mr. Beliveau told the crowd. "But nowhere has this family feeling of pride in one's fellow man been so strong and I will cherish my visit here always."
Away from the sports arenas, Mr. DOYLE, an Irish tenor, performed at St. Patrick Society festivities. Over the course of about 50 years, he sang at funerals, weddings and concerts.
He was also a solitary figure who loved to walk for hours, studying nature and composing poems in his head. His poetry drew on his Irish background and the study of contemporary authors and poets. "Studies at university and poetry have opened a new world. It's not only the courses themselves but participating with folks much younger than myself," Mr. DOYLE once said.
"Joe had a sense of humour, second to none," his wife said. "He kept you in stitches. Everybody wanted to be around him. He had a great love of song, performing and poetry."
He found a publisher for his poetry, too, but two heart attacks in 1994 put his book, Neath the Surface, on the back burner. Eleven years later, his granddaughter Rosie KOMADINA is resurrecting the book with the intention of also including his memoirs. She hopes to release the book this fall.
Joe DOYLE was born in Toronto on September 8, 1912. He died on June 8, 2005 in Sherbrooke, Quebec, of pneumonia and cardio-vascular disease. He is survived by his wife, Laura, son Shaun and daughters Teresa, Colleen, Alana and Angela.

SCOTT, Patrick -- I Remember
By Louis CAUZ, Monday, December 5, 2005, Page S11
Louis CAUZ, managing director of the Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame, writes about Patrick SCOTT, who was the subject of a Lives Lived essay on October 28.
The cardboard box stashed away for more than 30 years contained what I was searching for -- Pat SCOTT's memos. Among the old press badges and newspaper clippings was a long, narrow brown interdepartment envelope, used to forward memos to reporters from various editors at The Globe and Mail. When I learned of Pat's death, it reminded me of the often scathing, and occasionally complimentary, memos he would circulate. Reporters flinched, their egos often bruised, when they opened a memo from the city editor.
"The safety-blitz story last night was useless," was one that I and four others received on Christmas Eve, 1965. Merry Christmas! Another ended, "The whole thing [coverage of a subway fatality] spoiled my Christmas almost as much as it did his."
Richard DOYLE, editor of The Globe for 20 years, wrote in his book Hurly-Burly about a question that Pat had put to one of his reporters who had returned from City Hall: "Where's the story?" The answer: "There isn't one. Nothing happened. No news." Pat's response: "Maybe that's the story."
Pat was The Globe's jazz critic and perhaps he excused my lengthy evening dinner breaks when he learned that I often spent them at the Colonial Tavern on Yonge Street. When I graduated from Pat's "class" and took over the thoroughbred racing beat, I learned we had another affinity -- the ponies.

Kay KRITZWISER, Journalist: (1910-2005)
Reporter who started out as a 17-year-old editor of a children's magazine became a fearless feature writer, provocative art critic and 'a kind of Welcome Lady' for The Globe and Mail, writes Sandra MARTIN
By Sandra MARTIN With files by the late Donn DOWNIE, Friday, December 9, 2005, Page S9
When most women reporters were writing about teas, weddings and the latest in hemlines, Kay KRITZWISER was reporting on immigrants' problems, starving children, battered babies and the status of the working woman. She was among the first women reporters in Canada to compete head-to-head with her male counterparts. The newspapers she worked for were better because of her verve and insight.
"The lady knows how to bat an eyelash, swivel a hip, show off an ankle or arch an eyebrow," the late Richard "Dick" DOYLE said about her in a tribute in which he described her as the "daughter of Cartier, the sister of Givenchy -- the nemesis of Levi Strauss." He went on to deconstruct her devastating brand of seduction and betrayal as an interview technique.
"A rustle of silk announces her arrival, a breathless voice begins the interview, a laugh like Bacall's punctuates the questions. Tiny gasps greet the most mundane of responses to her guileless prodding into the dark recesses of the hapless fellow on the other side of her note pad. How gently she applauds the confession, how sympathetically she receives the acknowledged weakness.... Until the interview appears in print."
Veteran Globe journalist Michael VALPY remembers meeting her in the 1960s. "Kay was an incredibly elegant, warm, sophisticated woman, a female boulevardier with a healthy soupçon of Auntie Mame. She dressed very stylishly. I recall seeing her at events in hat and gloves -- I mean, not decades ago but as a matter of course. She was a rarity in journalism, an intellectual, well-read, an engaging conversationalist. I think of her as sparkling."
None of that famous style belies her success as a fearless feature writer and an engaging and provocative art critic. Art historian David Silcox, now president of Sotheby's Canada, predated Ms. KRITZWISER as an art critic at The Globe. "She was a very, very good reporter, more than a critic, but she was always curious and she loved writing about art and artists. She was somebody who was known and respected and liked by artists, curators and collectors."
Former Globe art critic John Bentley MAYS met her in the newsroom after he was appointed art critic of The Globe in 1980. "I came upon this birdlike lady with sharp clear eyes and a great smile and she said 'I'm Kay KRITZWISER,' he said. "That meant something to me because she was the witness to a generation of Toronto and Canadian artists dominated by Harold Town and the Isaacs Gallery."
She was a great chronicler of that period, he said, as a feature writer who could do wonderful interviews. "She knew the game and the players very well."
Kathleen Alice MULLAN was born in Regina five years after Saskatchewan joined Confederation and while Sir Wilfrid Laurier was prime minister. She was one of seven children of Joseph MULLAN, an Englishman who had served in the Boer War before immigrating to Canada, and his wife Lucy.
Ms. KRITZWISER began writing as a teenager, submitting articles to The Torchbearers Magazine, a supplement designed to encourage young writers that was part of the Regina Leader-Post's Saturday edition. After taking a secretarial course, she worked for an insurance company before being appointed, at the age of 17, the editor of the Leader-Post's young people's magazine.
She became a full-time reporter, but quit in 1933 to marry Harold H. KRITZWISER, a reporter and editorial writer at the paper. He was in his early 40s when he died of a heart attack in 1946, leaving Ms. KRITZWISER with a six-year-old son, David Erik to raise.
She went back to the Leader-Post as an editorial writer and wrote K.M.K.'s column three times a week. It appeared on the editorial page and was "about anything and everything" that caught her fancy, but usually about social and current affairs, according to her son, who is now a freelance writer in Vancouver. She was hired away by The Globe and Mail as a feature writer in 1956.
The late Oakley DALGLEISH was editor of the newspaper at the time, but her real mentor was the late Dick DOYLE, who was the first managing editor of the Weekly, The Globe magazine that began publication on May 4, 1957.
In his memoirs, Hurley-Burly, Mr. DOYLE recalled assigning her to write "the human side" of a big series on immigration. She was "a kind of Welcome Lady who gave special attention to the day-by-day problems of the newcomers and their old Canadian neighbours, the resident White, Anglo-Saxon, Protestants who didn't always know what to expect of the recent arrivals," Mr. DOYLE wrote. He said her major impact came, though, with a series on child welfare, "The One Who Never Grew Up."
Ms. KRITZWISER had a distinctive style that defied the conventional rules of daily journalism. She spurned the "who, what, where, when and how" first paragraph, preferring instead a scene-setter or an anecdote that would get the reader into the story. The essential facts would still be there, but the reader was permitted to swallow them in small gulps while she told her story.
"When Shirley Ann Barnhardt, in the first few weeks of her life, went to live in one of the Sunset cabins on Highway 17, a mile west of the town of Pembroke in Renfrew County, there were still a few stubborn roses blooming among the painted jockeys and ornamental birds in the circular garden," she wrote in a classic example of her style. "The hills of the upper Ottawa Valley were a backdrop for the white frame cabin and not too far away ran the Ottawa River. It promised to be a fine place to put out a baby's pram come the next summer."
She followed up that painterly opening with a zinger of a second paragraph: "When Shirley Ann Barnhardt died on January 27 in the seventh month of her life of malnutrition, dehydration and pneumonia, an icy wind blew in a broken window of the squalid cabin and the rose bushes scraped in the wind above the snow. A dog sniffed at frozen garbage outside the door. Inside, the cold air blowing in from the river could not clear the smell."
In his analysis, Mr. DOYLE wrote that the "poignancy of the scene set the stage for a ruthless examination of society's failure to provide even the flimsiest protection for the helpless."
The subjects of many of Ms. KRITZWISER's stories are still in the headlines today. In 1959, when credit cards were a new and a largely unfamiliar phenomenon, she wrote that they would eventually replace cash. In 1961, she spotted Metro Toronto's urban sprawl and the problems it created for the commuter. She noted, as others are still noting, that commuters are wedded to their cars and will take them to work regardless of parking costs and inconvenience.
Although much of her work appeared in the old Globe magazine, she was frequently assigned to cover Royal tours when they were regarded as big news by Canadian newspapers. She was also often asked to interview visiting celebrities. The list included Edward G. Robinson, Liberace, Cary Grant, Truman Capote, Elvis Presley and Zsa Zsa Gabor. Her byline also appeared on book and movie reviews.
She was best known in the latter part of her career as an art critic, a position for which she had no formal training. When she was offered the job, after The Globe's art critic, Pearl McCARTHY, died in 1965, she said, "I don't know anything about art," according to her son. "Well, you can learn," her son remembers Mr. DOYLE retorting.
She held the post for a decade until she retired in 1975. Turning 65 didn't mean she stopped working. She went to India, China, and South America, either privately or on assignment as a travel writer, for The Globe and other outlets. As well, she wrote extensively about the arts, read widely and kept up with a wide circle of Friends, until illness finally slowed her down in her 90s.
Kay KRITZWISER was born in Regina, Saskatchewan., on February 25, 1910. She died in Toronto yesterday of cancer. She was 95. She leaves her son David and his wife. A memorial service is being planned in Toronto.

Noël YOUNG had vision for daycare
He wanted a seamless day for schoolchildren
'Incurable' optimist devoted life to youngsters
By Catherine DUNPHY, Obituary Writer
A playful, joyful giant of a man, Noël YOUNG dedicated his life to children, their care and their welfare -- even though it was all theoretical until the birth of his own daughter just six years ago.
Mieke was an amazing gift, he used to say, and this wasn't theory, nor just the words of the smitten father he was. Four years before she was born, he was diagnosed with a brain tumour and given a few months to live. Perhaps it was his sunny, optimistic nature, perhaps it was something else, but YOUNG married his partner, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation writer Ann JANSEN, after his diagnosis and New Year's Eve surgery, and lived another 10 years. He died March 8 at age 51.
"When he was first sick, we never thought (having children) was a possibility," JANSEN said. "But he stayed well and the desire to have children is a very strong one. "
And he was someone who had a very strong sense of possibility.
"Cancer wasn't the only thing Noël had that was incurable. His optimism was," said Geoff WILLIAMS, a friend from their high school days in Scarborough. "Until close to his death he rarely expressed frustration or spoke of being upset with having cancer."
What did concern him -- greatly -- was establishing a child-care program for school-aged children within a federally funded universal child-care system. His vision was a seamless school day for children, in which they could go to one place for school and daycare. He was a founding member of the School Age Care Association of Ontario and the author of a 1994 book Caring for Play: The School and Child Care Connection.
He was the sparkplug behind a conference in Toronto six years ago and the driving force behind the association newsletter "Exploring Environments".
"He was very involved in things for children, advocacy for children, not-for-profit children's care," said Martha FRIENDLY, who saw him the day after the federal budget was announced in February. He had been staying in the palliative care unit at Toronto Grace hospital since the beginning of the year and by then was having some trouble speaking, but he wanted to know if the budget included finally -- funding for child care.
FRIENDLY is chair of the University of Toronto Childcare Resource and Research Unit, but she was one of a group of parents starting up the Alternative Primary School in about 1982 when she hired YOUNG to help with its faltering daycare. "He was tall -- about 6-foot-4 -- with a big, bushy head of red hair and I thought he was just the cutest guy. I tend to make snap judgments. I thought 'Okay, here's the guy (we need).'"
YOUNG told the hiring committee he wasn't strong on administration and that became a running joke. He was a creative, compassionate, imaginative and inspirational child-care worker: he started an outdoor education program in which the daycare kids experienced overnight outdoor camping, he designed a school-aged child-care program that focused on what the kids were interested in, including Friday afternoon swim lessons, but he never could pull together a budget.
It was the same when he arrived in the early childhood education program at George Brown College in 1987, ready to shake things up at a school known for its focus on the infant and toddler stages. He envisioned school boards and child-care centres working together to provide the seamless day, and it now exists at the early childhood education program funded by the province and run by George Brown at Ryerson public school.
YOUNG also initiated an innovative Canadian social history project, collecting archival photographs and organizing them into stories of child care, health, women's work, poverty and racism he often shared with classes at the college.
"He was trying to engage students in a more meaningful way of learning about history, and for early childhood education students to understand why we have the health care we have," said Pam DOYLE, his friend and colleague at George Brown.
She worked on the project with YOUNG in 1998. "He once affectionately referred to me as 'his staff,'" she recalled. "It was a faux pas he didn't make again."
But it was also typical of YOUNG, who could talk his, mainly female, colleagues into helping out and usually into doing the majority of the detail work on the many projects, conferences and causes he believed in. He got away with it because of his infectious idealism, youthfulness and exuberance. Still his Peter Pan-like ability to have the women in his life look after all its practicalities had a female friend at George Brown threatening to make up T-shirts proclaiming "I'm not Wendy."
He grew up in a family of women. "When he was born, everybody was thrilled," said his sister Betty VEITCH. He was the youngest child and only boy, and his three sisters fought over who was going to take him to school on his first day.
His father was an Anglican Church minister, idealistic and often away administering to the needs of his parishioners, something that wasn't lost on his son. When YOUNG was about five, he disappeared one day. The family finally found him having milk and cookies at the home of the church organist who lived with her elderly sister. He told his frantic mother he was "doing visiting just like Dad does."
YOUNG began working with children at the former Bolton Camp for underprivileged children and at the Eastview drop-in centre in downtown Toronto while attending the University of Toronto. He graduated -- eventually. "This was typical of how he approached academia: he liked it in theory better than practice," said WILLIAMS.
YOUNG started up and lived in a number of communal houses in the city: "From the first house on Follis to the apartment above the shawarma shop on College, in the house that shook in high winds on Clinton, and during brief diversions to the foreign lands east of the Don Valley Parkway, Noël managed to bring groups of people together in various degrees of harmony," WILLIAMS noted.
YOUNG and JANSEN made their home in a co-op near University of Toronto and a Starbucks, where YOUNG used to take his plastic travel mug every morning for a fill-up. He got to know the staff there so well, one of them started babysitting Mieke and another signed up in George Brown's youth services program. "He was a natural mentor," his wife said.
When he moved into the palliative care unit, the Starbucks staff arranged delivery of coffee to him.
His surgery last fall wasn't successful, but it might have given him an extra month or so of life, which he put to use. His was a family devastated by cancer: both his twin sisters died of it (Gwen had breast cancer and Lorraine ovarian cancer). His father had died of pancreatic cancer and his mother died of leukemia. Only Betty VEITCH survived kidney cancer.
Trinity Hospice organized a care team for YOUNG that was soon overflowing with Friends.
Pam DOYLE was a team member. "He still had ideas to the end. He still wanted to get people to work on committees. He said the team was life-giving; we were in awe of him."
When he still could, he did paddling exercises in his bed because he was hoping he might be able to go on one more canoe trip to Killarney. With DOYLE, he worked out the details of the Noel Young Award, which will be awarded to a student in George Brown's early childhood education program who has shown a commitment to advocacy and action.
About 450 people attended his memorial celebration at Trinity St. Paul's Church last month. There were cards and condolences. One was from Martha FRIENDLY's daughter Abigail, now 25 and studying in London, England. She was one of the kids at that daycare in 1982 where YOUNG first worked. She used to pretend she wasn't feeling well at school so she could sit with YOUNG in the daycare. "I always thought you were a giant," she wrote.
