CARTER, Alexander▼ Walter▼
Walt Carter passed away peacefully in Toronto early Tuesday morning, the 4th of January, 2005, having just passed his 96th birthday. Dad enjoyed very good health and mobility up until these very last 2 or 3 months, and he was ready to go, when called. He is survived by his wife Madge▼ (Marjory▼ Edna▼ GARDNER) and his sister Ida DONALD; his older brother Lionel, predeceased Dad. Mom and Dad were married for 68 years and have three married children, Brian▼ (Charlotte,▼) Judy▼ (Jerry HOMENUK,) and Tom (Louise.) There are lots of grandchildren who are going to miss 'gramps': Meghan, Andrew (and Andrea, soon to be his wife,) and Amelia CARTER Kim (Andy BURNHAM,) David,▼ and Jill HOMENUK; and Jeff HODGINS (Lianne), Matthew CARTER (Nicole), and Krista (Todd VANZUILEKOM). He also leaves a great-granddaughter, Avery BURNHAM, whom he loved to visit with. Dad grew up in the Beach area of Toronto and spent a lot of time hiking and horseback riding in 'Taylor's Bush' back when there were only farm fields 'north of the Danforth'. He met Mom at a Saint John's Norway church dance; she was a great tennis player and they were on the Kew Beach courts often. Dad rowed in the 'eights' for the Argonauts, and his crew was of Olympic calibre. Dad was a businessman. He started working at fifteen, and although he never had a chance to attend university he became a successful owner of industrial heating engineering and supply companies. He and Mom loved to travel. Starting in the mid-1950s they spent more than two decades visiting England, Scotland, and Europe, repeatedly. He also loved to 'build'. As well as building the family home in York Mills, and a much loved cottage on Mink Lake near Apsley; at the 'ripe old age of 65' he helped his children build their cottages in Muskoka. Dad had a full life, and while we miss him, his passing was just as he wished it. Our special thanks to the Emergency and Intensive Care staff at Mount Sinai Hospital, and to the specialists who helped Dad. Our thanks as well to the staff of the Bradgate Arms for creating such a pleasant environment for Dad during his last few years.

HOWARD, William Arnold, C.M., C.M.M., C.D., Q.C. (1918-2005)
Bill HOWARD passed away at the Colonel Belcher on Wednesday, June 15, 2005 at the age of 86 years. Bill was born and raised in Calgary, attended Western Canada High School and received his B.A. (1940) and law degree (1941) from the University of Alberta. After serving overseas with the 31st Alberta Reconnaissance Regiment, Royal Canadian Armoured Corps, he co-founded the law firm of Cairns and Howard which later became Howard Mackie. He was a president of the Calgary Bar Association and a Founder of the Faculty of Law at the University of Calgary. He was well known for his attention to detail, passion for the law and military, and for his ability to function without sleep. His Directorships included Nova, Cana, Trilogy, Bow Valley Industries, Medis Western and SNC Group. He was Chairman of the Calgary Police Commission as well as National Governor of the Canadian Corps of Commissionaires. As an avid supporter of Canada's Armed Forces, Bill HOWARD earned a reputation for speaking up for the rank and file. He was a retired Major General (Chief of Reserves) of the Canadian Forces, Founding Governor and Colonel Commandant of the Royal Canadian Army Cadets, Colonel Commandant and President of the Royal Canadian Armoured Corps Association and perhaps most proudly, Honorary Colonel of the King's Own Calgary Regiment. He was Chairman of the Conference of Defence Associations, Chairman National Employers' Support Committee, President Winston Churchill Society, President Royal Alberta United Services Institute and Founder of the Calgary Military Museums Society. In 1994 he received the Vimy Award in recognition of his outstanding contributions to defence and security and preservation of democratic values. He was a Commander of the Order of Military Merit and a Member of the Order of Canada. Bill was a voracious reader with a penchant for cigars, port, Disney television shows, and raw onion sandwiches. He had unquestionable ethics and integrity, tremendous generosity, and a larger-than-life personality that will be remembered fondly by his family and colleagues. Bill is survived by his children, Mary HOWARD (Said NEMIRI), John HOWARD (Joanne HOWARD), and Barbara HOWARD (Mike GARDNER;) and five grandchildren, Zak NEMIRI, Katie and Mac HOWARD, and Ross and Stuart GARDNER. Bill was predeceased by his wife Margaret Elizabeth HOWARD (née HANNAH) in 2001; his son William George HOWARD in 1975; and his infant daughter Kathryn Elizabeth HOWARD in 1953.

CARTER, Marjory▼ Edna▼ (née GARDNER)
Madge CARTER passed away peacefully in Toronto early Saturday morning, the 6th of August, having just reached her 93rd birthday on Friday. Mom enjoyed good health throughout her life, only losing mobility and memory over these last two years. She is predeceased by her husband Walt (Alexander Walter CARTER) who passed away in January. She is survived by two of her sisters, Patricia (Pat) FOX and Wilhelmina (Billy) FRASER. Mom▼ and Dad were married for 68 years and have three married children, Brian (Charlotte,▲▼) Judy▲▼ (Jerry▼ HOMENUK,) and Tom (Louise.) There are lots of grandchildren who are going to miss 'grandma': Meghan, Amelia, and Andrew (Andrea) CARTER; Kim▼ (Andy▼ BURNHAM,) David, and Jill HOMENUK; and Jeff (Lianne) HODGINS, Krista (Todd) VANZUILEKOM, and Matthew (Nicole) CARTER. She▼ also leaves two great-grandchildren, Avery and Charlie BURNHAM. Mom▼ grew up in the Beach area of Toronto and was the second youngest in a family of nine girls. While the family didn't have 'a league of their own', Mom loved all types of sports, most notably tennis and speed skating. She spent a lot of time on the Kew Beach tennis courts and had the trophies to show for it. Saint John's Norway Anglican Church was an important focus for social activities and it was at a church dance where she met Dad. Mom was always cheerful, and while she worked in the 'early years', most of her years, and her love, were centred on being at home and bringing up her three children. She took up golf and worked in a women's fashion shop in her mature years so that she could always be 'keeping busy', staying in contact with people, and making new Friends; everyone 'took to Mom' right away. Our special thanks to the Salvation Army and the staff of the Isabel and Arthur Meighen Manor who took excellent care of Mom over her last two years. The Salvation Army was always Mom's favourite, and she knitted several hundred pairs of mittens over two decades for its Christmas bazaars. A donation to the Salvation Army in Mom's memory would be most appreciated.

CARTER, Alexander▲ Walter▲
Walt CARTER passed away peacefully in Toronto early Tuesday morning, the 4th of January, 2005, having just passed his 96th birthday. Dad enjoyed very good health and mobility up until these very last 2 or 3 months, and he was ready to go, when called. He is survived by his wife Madge▲ (Marjory▲ Edna▲ GARDNER) and his sister Ida DONALD; his older brother Lionel, predeceased Dad. Mom and Dad were married for 68 years and have three married children, Brian▲ (Charlotte,▲▼) Judy▲▼ (Jerry HOMENUK,) and Tom (Louise.) There are lots of grandchildren who are going to miss 'gramps': Meghan, Andrew (and Andrea, soon to be his wife,) and Amelia CARTER Kim (Andy BURNHAM,) David,▲ and Jill HOMENUK; and Jeff HODGINS (Lianne), Matthew CARTER (Nicole), and Krista (Todd VANZUILEKOM). He also leaves a great-granddaughter, Avery BURNHAM, whom he loved to visit with. Dad grew up in the Beach area of Toronto and spent a lot of time hiking and horseback riding in 'Taylor's Bush' back when there were only farm fields 'north of the Danforth'. He met Mom at a Saint John's Norway church dance; she was a great tennis player and they were on the Kew Beach courts often. Dad rowed in the 'eights' for the Argonauts, and his crew was of Olympic calibre. Dad was a businessman. He started working at fifteen, and although he never had a chance to attend university he became a successful owner of industrial heating engineering and supply companies. He and Mom loved to travel. Starting in the mid-1950s they spent more than two decades visiting England, Scotland, and Europe, repeatedly. He also loved to 'build'. As well as building the family home in York Mills, and a much loved cottage on Mink Lake near Apsley; at the 'ripe old age of 65' he helped his children build their cottages in Muskoka. Dad had a full life, and while we miss him, his passing was just as he wished it. Our special thanks to the Emergency and Intensive Care staff at Mount Sinai Hospital, and to the specialists who helped Dad. Our thanks as well to the staff of the Bradgate Arms for creating such a pleasant environment for Dad during his last few years. In Dad's honour, a donation to the Canadian Blood Services would be welcome: Canadian Blood Services, 67 College Street, Toronto, Ontario M5G 2M1.

CARTER, Marjory▲ Edna▲ (née GARDNER)
Madge CARTER passed away peacefully in Toronto early Saturday morning, the 6th of August, 2005 having just reached her 93rd birthday on Friday. Mom enjoyed good health throughout her life, only losing mobility and memory over these last two years. She is predeceased by her husband Walt (Alexander Walter CARTER) who passed away in January. She is survived by two of her sisters, Patricia (Pat) FOX and Wilhelmina (Billy) FRASER. Mom▲ and Dad were married for 68 years and have three married children, Brian (Charlotte,▲) Judy▲ (Jerry▲ HOMENUK,) and Tom (Louise.) There are lots of grandchildren who are going to miss 'grandma': Meghan, Amelia, and Andrew (Andrea) CARTER; Kim▲ (Andy▲ BURNHAM,) David, and Jill HOMENUK; and Jeff (Lianne) HODGINS, Krista (Todd) VANZUILEKOM, and Matthew (Nicole) CARTER. She▲ also leaves two great-grandchildren, Avery and Charlie BURNHAM. Mom▲ grew up in the Beach area of Toronto and was the second youngest in a family of nine girls. While the family didn't have 'a league of their own', Mom loved all types of sports, most notably tennis and speed skating. She spent a lot of time on the Kew Beach tennis courts and had the trophies to show for it. Saint John's Norway Anglican Church was an important focus for social activities and it was at a church dance where she met Dad. Mom was always cheerful, and while she worked in the 'early years', most of her years, and her love, were centred on being at home and bringing up her three children. She took up golf and worked in a women's fashion shop in her mature years so that she could always be 'keeping busy', staying in contact with people, and making new Friends; everyone 'took to Mom' right away. Our special thanks to the Salvation Army and the staff of the Isabel and Arthur Meighen Manor who took excellent care of Mom over her last two years. The Salvation Army was always Mom's favourite, and she knitted several hundred pairs of mittens over two decades for its Christmas bazaars. A donation to the Salvation Army in Mom's memory would be most appreciated.

PASHBY changed the face of the game
Players blinded in 1974 season -- before his efforts to make masks mandatory in minor hockey: 43. By the 1978 season: 0
By Glen COLBOURN and Lois KALCHMAN, Sports Reporters
When Dr. Tom PASHBY began searching for hockey helmets for his sons in 1959, he found only flimsy shells better suited for use as fruit bowls than safety equipment.
PASHBY devoted the next 46 years of his life to making helmets stronger and face protection mandatory in Canada and around the world. In doing so, he quite literally changed the face of hockey.
PASHBY, the game's foremost safety pioneer for the last half-century, died at his Leaside home yesterday surrounded by his family. He was 90.
"Thousands of kids have been saved from serious injuries because of him," said Frank SELKE Jr., a member of the Hockey Hall of Fame selection committee and a long-time friend of PASHBY.
"Unfortunately the masses don't know how much work this man has done and that is the tragedy."
PASHBY's labours haven't gone completely without recognition. He was made a Member of the Order of Canada in 1981 and inducted into Canada's Sports Hall of Fame in 2000, among two dozen national and international awards.
An ophthalmologist, PASHBY launched his crusade to prevent catastrophic injuries in sports after his eldest son Bill suffered a concussion while playing in a Leaside house league game in 1959. Bill smacked his bare head on the ice and was rushed to the Hospital for Sick Children.
"He took what was potentially a very dangerous incident involving me and as a result has saved many other young people from waking up in an ambulance like I did," Bill PASHBY told the Star. "It was scary."
The elder PASHBY already knew about the seriousness of concussions, having suffered one as a high school football player.
"I was out like a light. I don't remember any pain," PASHBY recalled last month. "I do remember going to East General Hospital. I said I was all right, got out of the car, went to walk and fell flat on my face."
After Bill PASHBY's injury, the senior PASHBY forbade his two sons -- Bill, 13, and Bob, 11 -- from playing hockey again without a helmet. It was a hard rule to enforce.
"All I could find were these crazy things made out of cardboard," PASHBY told the Star in 1983. "There was a lot of junk out there."
So PASHBY, a consulting physician with the Maple Leafs, got forward Bert Olmstead to help him import a polycarbonate helmet from Sweden.
"They called Bob 'Caesar' the first time he wore it, but the other parents caught the fever after that game," PASHBY said.
That's believed to be the first time a player wore a helmet in the Toronto Hockey League (now the Greater Toronto Hockey League) and Bob PASHBY's original "white eggshell" headgear has gone to the Hockey Hall of Fame.
But even the early Swedish helmets were unsatisfactory to PASHBY, who began seeking ways of testing and improving them.
"The Canadian Amateur Hockey Association said if I would set a standard they would make (helmet use) mandatory," he recalled this summer. "And so I did."
That was the beginning of a long second career as a hockey safety innovator -- "a hobby that blew up into a big job," PASHBY said when he was inducted into Canada's Sports Hall of Fame.
In 1975, PASHBY was named chair of the Canadian Standards Association committee that approved hockey and box lacrosse equipment, a position he held for two decades. His influence was felt almost immediately. In 1976, the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association ordered that all amateur players wear Canadian Standards Association-certified helmets. In 1979, the National Hockey League made helmets mandatory for incoming players.
PASHBY also pioneered the development of visors and wire facemasks. He took great pride in the number of blindings they prevented.
In the 1974-75 season, before facemasks were mandatory in minor hockey, the number of players who suffered a permanently blinded eye in Canada was 43. By 1978, the number among players using Canadian Standards Association-certified, full-face protection was zero.
"He affected a lot of people," said Murray COSTELLO, who, as president of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, worked with PASHBY for three decades.
"You knew he was right in what he said."
PASHBY continued his crusade for safer hockey until his last days. He used Vancouver Canucks' forward Todd Bertuzzi's attack on Colorado's Steve Moore in 2004 to call on the National Hockey League to ban all hits to the head. The International Ice Hockey Federation, U.S.A. Hockey and Hockey Canada had already adopted such a rule -- at PASHBY's behest.
Over the years, he also pushed to ban unsafe moulded goalie masks, introduce neck protection and disallow hitting from behind to reduce spinal injuries. He set up the charitable Dr. Tom Pashby Sports Safety Fund, which has raised approximately $600,000 for research and education and annually confers a $10,000 award for outstanding contributions to preventing catastrophic injuries in sport.
"He has had phenomenal impact on amateur hockey," said Greater Toronto Hockey League president John GARDNER.
That impact is evident in PASHBY's personal collection of hockey safety gear, which shows the development of facemasks and helmets through the decades. Earlier this year, the Hockey Hall of Fame selected 50 items from the collection for the Hall.
PASHBY was born into a family of butchers in east-end Toronto in 1915. He grew up in the Danforth and Pape area and graduated from University of Toronto's medical school in 1940. He married high school sweetheart Helen CHRISTIE in 1941 just 10 days before joining the Royal Canadian Air Force. In the military, he conducted eye tests on would-be pilots, bombardiers and tail-gunners and became interested in ophthalmology.
In 1948, he started his own practice in Leaside, which his son Bob joined and still runs.
Helen died in 2003 of colon cancer. PASHBY is survived by their three children, Bill (Elizabeth), Bob (Penny) and Jane, as well as six granddaughters, one grand_son and a great granddaughter.
The family is planning a private funeral.
