McLAREN,
Stephen and Joan
(GROSVENOR)
In loving memory of Joan (January 4, 1946-December 8, 1985) and
Stephen (February 13, 1976-December 6, 1978). Joan's light still
shines in the heart of those who knew her. The memory of her
smile and caring nature will continue to live on. Stephen's short
2½ years with us left a place in our hearts for those requiring
special care. Together, they watch over us from above and shower
us with the memory of their love. Larry, Susan, Julie, Allison,
David and those they never knew, Jeff, Ryan, Cassie and Josh.
Joan (GROSVENOR)
McLAREN
Every time I look at our daughter I
see your sparkling eyes and I know you are looking down and smiling.
It's been 20 years and I still miss you every day! I love you
Mom!

Crash kills village man
Funeral held Tuesday, police continue investigation
By Michael
GENNINGS,
Page 1
Funeral
Services for 20-year-old Christopher
DAY of Creemore,
killed Friday night when his car struck two horses on Fairgrounds
Road, took place yesterday afternoon.
Mourners gathered at Fawcett's Funeral Home on Mill Street in
Creemore to pay their respects.
"This is very unfortunate. Words can't say how I feel," Muriel
DAY,
Christopher's▼ 73-year-old grandmother, told The Sun on Monday.
"I've seen so many people die from this town over the years."
The crash which claimed
DAY's life took place around 10: 40 p.m.
Friday night. Huronia West Ontario Provincial Police Const. Mark
KINNEY said that
DAY was traveling northbound on Fairgrounds
Road, about 1.3 kilometres north of County Rd. 91, when his black
1999 Pontiac four-door struck the two horses.
Someone from a home on Fairgrounds Road,
KINNEY noted, called
in the crash to 911 operators who dispatched emergency personnel.
"He'd left here to pick up his girlfriend from work at Tim Hortons
in Collingwood,"
DAY said of her grand_son, who for the last couple
years lived with his grandparents at their Jardine Crescent home
in Creemore.
KINNEY said paramedics transported
DAY to Collingwood General
& Marine Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Police were at the accident scene until almost 5 a.m. Saturday
morning, investigating what transpired.
There was no information available Monday about how the horses
got loose, who they belonged to or whether the owners will be
charged.
DAY was the only
son of Gwen
DAY, who lives in Collingwood with
her common-law partner Ron
GROVES.
DAY's grandmother said he attended elementary school at Nottawasaga-Creemore
Public School and later transferred to Admiral Collingwood Public
School. He also went to Collingwood Collegiate Institute and
Stayner Collegiate Institute.
Lately DAY worked nights at a New Lowell company building house
trusses. But, his grandmother said, his real ambition was to
become a chef. She said he did work briefly at the kitchens of
some local resorts but left to find better paying employment.
DAY talked about attending a cooking program at Toronto's George
Brown College some day, she noted. "That was his ambition --
but it's gone now." Another area of interest was computers.
"He was excellent with using a computer. He had a real knack
he could make it talk to him," his grandmother said.
Police continue their investigation.
The family said that donations in memory of
DAY can be made to
any charity.
DAY was cremated and burial took place a Creemore Union Cemetery.

By Stefanie
BATCHO-
LINO,
Saturday,
August 20, 2005, Page M4
Sometimes gathered around a dinner table with his daughter, son-in-law
and grandchildren, Walter "Wally" Alfred
GROVES would raise his
fists in the air. But not in anger.
"He'd stick fists out on either side. And we'd have to put ours
out [to touch his].... Then, we'd do a family power chant," his
daughter, Susan
WRIGHT, recalls. "It was about being together
and being one. Then, we'd all crack up laughing."
The▼ laughter and smiling would not stop there if Mr.
GROVES had
his lighthearted, yet tenacious way.
When his grandchildren would notice part of a meal that accidentally
or not -- made its way to his nose or the side of his mouth,
he'd chirp back: "Oh, I'm saving that bit."
For him, life was about not taking himself too seriously and
making people smile, whether by waggling his eyebrows, giving
raspberry kisses to family members or clicking his heels in the
air.
"In bringing happiness to people, he was a king," Ms.
WRIGHT
said of her father, who emigrated to Canada from England in 1990
at the age of 70 after his beloved wife, Peggy, passed away.
He came here to be close to his only child and grandchildren.
"Despite his humour, he was very tenacious and never gave up
on anything," she explained, noting how he successfully fought
prostate cancer a year after coming here.
Born in London, England, he served in the Royal Navy Fleet Air
Arm from 1940 to 1945 and later worked as an executive for the
Royal Mail. Later, he moved to Worthing, in Sussex, a seaside
town known for lawn bowling, which became his passion.
Although he hadn't played the game for four years, young Lawrence
Park lawn-bowling club members turned out for his memorial, as
did Friends he made at the Salvation Army's Meighen Manor, where
he lived for the past two years.
"He has this huge fan club everywhere he goes," his daughter
said. "There are many different gauges of success in life. One
of them is how much pleasure an individual can give. I don't
think he ever knew how successful he was [at that]."
Before he passed away this month at the age of 85, Mr.
GROVES
asked the Salvation Army chaplain to pray for him, not to ease
his pain from a blood disorder, but to allow him "to continue
to make people smile."

Two versions of a murder victim
DARING 'a wonderful, wonderful guy'
Not 'completely upstanding,' police say
By Linda DIEBEL and Isabel
TEOTONIO, Staff Reporters, With files
from Vanessa
LU,
Page A1
There are two versions of Delroy George
DARING, the father of
10 shot dead in the courtyard of a Scarborough housing complex
Thursday night, and one is not so pretty.
The first, from people who knew him, is that he was a good man
who pulled a troubled life together to organize "No drugs, No
violence" summer barbecues for low-income kids. The group called
itself the "out-of-pocket club" because nobody would help them
raise money.
There are variations on this version, including the rumour that
DARING was a paid police informant in the last months of his
life.
Toronto police detectives, while denying the informant story,
have a different take on the unemployed furniture mover who emigrated
from Kingston, Jamaica, 20 years ago and had convictions for
drug possession and trafficking dating back to 1986.
"I have reason to believe that the idea he was, say, a completely
upstanding person promoting non-violence, non-drugs and non-guns
is not fair," said Det. John
BIGGERSTAFF, at the crime scene
yesterday. "The activities which brought him to this courtyard
are inconsistent with someone promoting (such ideals)."
Added his partner, Det. Greg
GROVES: "I have no doubt that this
man was the target of this murder."
Whichever version turns out to be true, there is one indisputable
fact: he was gunned down in front of 20 to 30 people, many of
them children, who later couldn't sleep through the night and
are more terrified than ever of living in an increasingly violent
part of the city.
"A little girl said to me today, 'Did you see what happened?
I did. I saw it,'" said one woman yesterday. "Now that's not
right. No child should have that memory."
Residents at 3181 Eglinton, where
DARING was shot, didn't want
to give their names. People are angry about more than the murder.
They say their complaints about their living conditions and violence
are ignored.
Yesterday, the building's stairways were littered with burnt
newspapers and garbage. They smelled of urine and, in the hallways,
light fixtures dangled and carpets were stained with cigarette
butts. Locks on the building's doors were broken and mice and
roaches scurried about.
Out front, young men milled about the entrance, smoking, listening
to music and watching passersby.
"Look, nobody cares until somebody is shot dead, not the police,
not the media," said one man, 22. "We never talk to them and
it's not about people being scared to talk. It's that when they
do, nothing ever happens so why open your mouth."
Before walking away, another man muttered, "Nobody interviewed
Delroy when he was trying to do something. Not even the other
ghettos cared a f -- -."
These men said
DARING was trying to make a difference, especially
for the kids. He organized barbecues, which began four years
ago and which offered kids a day of bliss with "bouncey-houses"
for them to play, along with raffles, soccer and dance contests.
"He was living proof that someone could turn their life around,
that somebody could make a change and be a role model," said
one man.
A few weeks ago, on August 7, the late-night good mood of a barbecue
was shattered when a man was shot in the neck near the Hasty
Market across the street. The man survived and nobody has been
charged.
Police couldn't confirm reports he was found with 10 bags of
marijuana
BIGGERSTAFF said he believes there may have been a connection
between DARING's murder and the Hasty Market shooting.
"I'm a believer that things aren't a mere coincidence," he said.
While the autopsy won't be conducted until today, police said
that DARING was shot "at least once" in the chest and was pronounced
dead an hour later at Sunnybrook hospital.
BIGGERSTAFF said police canvassed the apartment buildings Thursday
night after the murder, which occurred around 7 p.m., but were
unable to secure eyewitness accounts from anyone in the courtyard.
BIGGERSTAFF said there was concern yesterday at police headquarters,
beginning with Chief Bill Blair, about initial reports of the
murder describing
DARING in glowing terms as a community organizer
who was an innocent victim of crime.
"Whether I like it or not, (that version) has gotten some attention,"
he said, adding that his worry is that Torontonians feel unsafe
because they think "a person promoted as a fine, upstanding citizen
is killed in broad daylight."
That version, he said, may not be true.
It could be, he explained, that "he was a bad person in a bad
position and it had nothing to do with safety in any public area."
Asked if
DARING was a drug dealer, the detective said he didn't
know.
One young man who worked with
DARING to organize the barbecues
for children said he was frustrated with the insinuation that
DARING was still involved in illegal activities. "They'll say
the typical thing, it's what you say in every 'hood: 'He was
a drug dealer, he was moving into someone's 'hood.' There's no
(hard) drug activity here. If you were a drug dealer selling
crack cocaine you'd go broke here."
Rumours are swirling about
DARING's murder. Last night Global
television reported he was found with 10 dime-sized bags of marijuana,
but police couldn't confirm the report.
But at 3181 Eglinton, people didn't want to talk about that.
They just wanted to remember the George
DARING they knew. For
years he lived in their building before moving out about a decade
ago.
"He was a wonderful, wonderful guy and he was like a brother
to me," said one young man.
In the courtyard where
DARING died, a woman looked at the bloodstain
on the ground and said: "He didn't represent 'hood life, but
he died representing the worst part of it."
He had 10 children with at least three different mothers and
apparently looked after all his kids. At the time of his death
he lived with his two youngest and his mother in Pickering.
"He was a ladies' man," said one woman. "He liked to take care
of business."
Last night, after police removed the yellow tape from the crime
scene, two little teddy bears marked the spot where
DARING died
in the courtyard. And a single bunch of artificial red roses.

ROBINSON,
Edna -- I Remember
By Jerry GROWE,
Monday,
December 12, 2005, Page S11
Jerry GROWE of Vancouver also writes about Edna
ROBINSON.
I was a member of her last class at Forest Hill Collegiate in
Toronto in 1957 and was one of those smitten male students. She
was my homeroom teacher for three years, and each year the feelings
became more poignant. There was a slight sense of melancholy
about her which we fantasized was due to a lost love. But who
would ever ask?
The portrait by Robert
BATEMAN that accompanied the obituary
was stunning, and was as I remember her then. The sketch was
also perfect and, for the record, I think the two aptly positioned
admirers were Don
JARVIS and George
SCROGGIE.
Edna ROBINSON was a truly effective classroom teacher; who else
could have engaged us brats in the study of "Der Verschwindendes
Miniatur"?
