Men drowned during work break
The two young men had been doing construction work at a beachfront
home.
By Patrick
MALONEY, and Sharon
HO, Free Press Reporters
Rondeau -- A day after two men drowned in Lake Erie's choppy
waters, reminders of the failed rescue attempts still were scattered
along the shoreline yesterday.
Packaging for resuscitators and defibrillator patches were among
medical debris left in the sand where rescuers tried Thursday
evening to save two Chatham-Kent men, both weak swimmers, who
spent 30 minutes lost in the lake near Rondeau Provincial Park.
The double drowning raised the London region's death toll from
water mishaps to seven since the start of June.
After working all day on a beachfront home, construction workers
John MARTENS, 26, of Chatham, and Jacob
KLASSEN, 23, of nearby
Louisville -- related by marriage -- entered the lake.
Rescue crews were called soon after, but the two were pronounced
dead at a Chatham hospital.
A third construction worker escaped to call for help.
Despite the double drowning, area residents said water conditions
Thursday appeared anything but deadly.
"(MARTENS and
KLASSEN) were down in what I consider the shallow
area," said Tom
TOWNSEND, who witnessed much of the rescue attempt.
"(It) was a nice day -- there was an undertow, but not what I
consider dangerous,"
TOWNSEND added.
He said he was impressed with the rescue efforts, which included
police officers, firefighters and two search boats.
The water around Rondeau Provincial Park is generally calm, said
area business owner Lori
O'SHAY/SHEA.
"You just don't think about it," she said.
"I was totally shocked. When something like this happens, you
certainly do think of (the potential dangers)."
The owner of The Stone Men, a Ridgetown construction company
that employed
KLASSEN and
MARTENS, declined comment.
Though the number of drownings in the region this season seems
high, one expert said seven deaths in one month isn't uncommon.
"Drownings peak in the summer and cluster around weekends --
especially long weekends," said Ed
BEAN of the Livesaving Society
of Canada.
Other Area Water Deaths
- July 5: Patrick Darrell
GRAY/GREY, 34, dies after a diving injury
in Trout Lake in Innerkip.

Motorcyclist dies after crash
By Sharon HO,
Free▼
Press▼
Reporter▼
A 19-year-old Perth County man is dead after crashing in what
police termed a motorcycle race.
But another teenager involved in the Thursday night crash denied
the two were racing.
Eric WOUTERS was at a house party with 18-year-old Chris
OTTEN,
both from St. Paul, when they decided to race on a country road,
Perth County Ontario Provincial Police said yesterday.
The road, Line 26, is about 10 kilometres southwest of Stratford.
"They were travelling well in excess of the speed limit (80 kilometres
an hour,)" Const. Glen
CHILDERLEY said.
OTTEN said he didn't know
WOUTERS well and they were joking around
when they decided to go for a ride. They rode for slightly less
than a kilometre before the crash, he said.
"He was ahead of me when he got into a speed wobble -- the front
end of his motorcycle started shaking.
"Then he lost control. He went down in front of me. I hit the
brakes hard and flew over the handlebars."
A resident called the Ontario Provincial Police, who arrived
at 11 p.m. to find the men lying in a corn field.
Both were taken to Stratford General Hospital where
WOUTERS died.
OTTEN was released after being treated for a broken wrist and
burns on his knees, arm and back. He also received stitches on
a foot and elbow.
OTTEN said he was driving his boss's motorcycle and had only
driven a motorcycle three or four times before.
Police said
OTTEN has a motorcycle licence. It was not immediately
clear whether
WOUTERS had one.
An autopsy was to be performed on
WOUTERS yesterday.

Forest nurse had grit, courage
By Sharon HO,
Free▲▼
Press▲▼
Reporter▲▼
As a young woman during the Depression, Anne
TAILOR/TAYLOR did something
most Ontario women her age didn't: She left the family farm to
work.
"It was unusual for a woman to leave the farm," her son, John
TAILOR/TAYLOR, said. "In the 1930s it was tough on a farm."
When she struck out on her own at a time when women's mobility
was limited, it was not the last time the nurse from a farm near
Forest, in Lambton County, would show her independence and determination.
After graduating from nursing at Sarnia General Hospital in 1933,
TAILOR/TAYLOR went to work in Detroit as a nurse. She signed up to work
as an American military nurse in the Second World War in the
early 1940s and stayed through until late 1945.
"They started from West Virginia and went to Africa, Italy, southern
France and wound up in Rhineland (Germany) at the end of the
war," said her son, who lives in Toronto.
TAILOR/TAYLOR died July 10 at 93.
TAILOR/TAYLOR didn't tell her son about her wartime experiences until
she was in her nineties. One story he remembers was about the
American forces stumbling upon the Dachau concentration camp.
"At the end of the war they (the soldiers) were in Germany and
went into what they thought was a PoW camp, but it was a death
camp," he said.
The army stayed to help the concentration camp's survivors.
"She said it was extremely horrible and she couldn't believe
people were reduced to what they were -- starved and horrified,"
John TAILOR/TAYLOR said of his mother.
In 1948, she married James Currie
TAILOR/TAYLOR, who had grown up near
her family's farm. The two had kept in touch during the war.
Currie, as he was called, was working in a mining camp in the
Northwest
Territories at the time.
TAILOR/TAYLOR showed her independent
streak again when she drove there after their marriage to become
a nurse at the camp.
TAILOR/TAYLOR bought a car and drove through the U.S. and Canada at
a time when modern highways didn't exist.
"The car would fall off the badly rutted roads at times," John
TAILOR/TAYLOR said. "She married Dad, drove up there and told him he'd
have to get a real job and move to the city," he said.
The couple later moved to Toronto. They retired to Hometown,
Ontario, near Wasaga Beach, where they were founding members
of the retirement community.

BLADEK gave from heart
By Sharon HO,
Free▲▼
Press▲▼
Reporter▲▼
Antonette BLADEK was a woman who never stopped giving.
"She was an extraordinary, generous, kind woman," said her daughter,
Louise Ann
BLADEK of London.
BLADEK, who moved to London nearly 70 years ago, died June 16
from cancer at the age of 92.
Tena, as she was called, learned about the importance of giving
to others from her parents.
"Mother saw it as her prime objective, by example of her parents,
that others in the world needed to be loved and comforted," Louise
Ann said.
BLADEK's lessons about caring for others was learned as a child,
when her family "adopted" a man from their church, who moved
in with the family.
Her generosity kept her busy during the Second World War when
she knitted socks and mittens for Canadian soldiers.
In the late 1940s, Tena and her husband, John, took former Polish
soldiers into their home as the men moved to Canada to start
a new life after the war. It really helped that Tena was fluent
in Polish.
"I do remember as a little kid waking up and finding people sleeping
in our house," Louise Ann said. "Our house was known as the place
where anyone could get food."
A spiritual woman,
BLADEK was a founding member of Our Lady of
Czestochowa Church in London.
"We needed her because she was bilingual and she was a woman
of faith," said Reverend Peter
SANCZENKO, a former priest at the
church.
BLADEK helped raise money for the church before it was built.
On one occasion, she and her brother-in-law, John
DAWIDOWSKI,
knocked on an apartment door asking for money, Louise Ann said.
It was a one-bedroom apartment and the family was using blankets
to divide the apartment into compartments.
But when
BLADEK and
DAWIDOWSKI said they were collecting money
for a Polish church," Louise Ann said, the family "donated 100
$1 bills.... She said that was the greatest gift she had gotten
that day."
The church also remembered
BLADEK for her generosity.
"She was always willing to help when you called her,"
SANCZENKO
said. "She always found time for others. She shared her time
and gifts (pleasantness, cheerfulness and helpfulness) with others."

Lifelong learning a passion for
KERR
By Sharon HO,
Free▲
Press▲
Reporter▲
Throughout his life, Lloyd
KERR believed in self-education and
doing things himself.
"He wasn't afraid to learn anything," said his daughter, Bonnie
BURRELL, of Dorchester. "He was never afraid to get a book, dive
in and learn it himself."
KERR died on July 27 from cancer at the age of 75.
A testament to
KERR's ability to teach himself is a ranch-style
house he built on Commissioners Road west of Wharncliffe Road
around 1958.
"He also did his own plumbing and electrical work in the house,"
BURRELL said.
KERR moved his family from London to outside of Dorchester in
1969 over fears Commissioners would be turned into a highway.
He then bought a hobby farm in Dorchester where he renovated
its farm house.
Professionally,
KERR was a longtime employee of Wolverine Tube,
a copper tubing manufacturer.
KERR started working at the company in 1945 at age 15. Despite
having only a Grade 11 education, he worked his way up to become
president and chief executive in 1976.
KERR retired from the
company in 1993.
"When he moved up the ranks he continued to learn,"
BURRELL said.
"He was tremendously dedicated to Wolverine Tube. His job was
his passion. As a child growing up, Wolverine Tube was constantly
in our vocabulary."
KERR made it a point to meet all new employees at the company.
Not only did he meet them, but he knew everyone's name.
"He was a down-to-earth person and he could talk to any person,"
said Ed ERVASTI, president of Wolverine Tube prior to
KERR.
"There was no aloofness to him at all. All 300 people he knew
intimately. He was out on the plant floor, so he talked to everybody."
Sports were another passion in
KERR's life. He was an avid golfer
and bought a house on a golf course in Florida after he retired.
KERR also enjoyed watching baseball and hockey.
KERR coached the Wolverine Tube hockey team in the Industrial
Hockey League. He also sponsored the Lloyd's Boys slo-pitch and
hockey teams as well as minor sports teams in Dorchester his
grandchildren played on.
KERR is survived by his children Bonnie
BURRELL,
Randy
KERR,
Chris RANK,
Bill
KERR and Janice
KERR who all live in Dorchester.
KERR's wife
Joan died in 1995.

Watch, don't run, riders told
Toronto Transit Commission, police launch safety drive for motorists,
pedestrians
Woman, 27, struck and killed by car while running for a bus
By Sikander Z.
HASHMI and Hilda
HOY,
Staff
Reporters
Take the time to check.
Tragically, that message -- part of a safety drive by Toronto
police and the Toronto Transit Commission this week -- came too
late for a young woman struck and killed in Scarborough just
hours before the launch of the campaign.
Bonnie HO, 26, was rushing to catch her bus just before 7 a.m.
yesterday. She reportedly ran against a red light from the southeast
corner of Steeles and Kelvin Grove Aves., near her home, and
was hit by a taxi.
Suffering massive head injuries,
HO was rushed to Sunnybrook
hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
In a one-week campaign aimed at preventing such accidents, officers
are paying particular attention to infractions by motorists,
cyclists and pedestrians that impede transit, especially around
bus and streetcar stops, high-occupancy vehicle lanes and Wheel
Trans vehicles.
Toronto police Sgt. Tony
LAWSON advises pedestrians to stay alert
and be cautious when stepping on to roads.
"Most fatalities involving pedestrians occur on the roadway,
not on sidewalks," he points out. "It's usually the pedestrian
rushing to something."
Most of the time, streetcar commuters have to step on to the
roadway when hopping on or off the Toronto Transit Commission.
One person a month is struck while leaving a streetcar, according
to Const. Barb
RYAN of the traffic safety program. But it's a
wonder the rate is that low, considering how many motorists don't
bother to stop behind open streetcar doors as the law requires.
"Toronto Transit Commission operators, themselves, report up
to 80 incidents a day where motor vehicles pass the open doors
of a streetcar, I guess in an attempt to race by,"
RYAN says.
"Those could all end up in injuries or a calamity of some description."
That's the reason the campaign is emphasizing streetcar safety,
she says, "because of the fact that they're not curbside."
At least one streetcar rider thinks that should be changed.
"It'd be nice to have (the streetcars) on the other side of the
street," says Vanessa
LEE, 26.
witnessing one rider being hit by a car was enough to persuade
Umar TURNER to make a habit to check not once, but twice, when
getting off a streetcar.
"I was right behind this lady," recalls the 26-year-old, "and
she stepped off. I guess she didn't really look and a car came
by and hit her.
"Because of that, every time I get off the streetcar, I always
make sure to double-check."
TURNER says he often sees the streetcar stop and cars speed by.
Lee ZASLOFSKY, 60, has also witnessed cars whizzing by open streetcar
doors but hasn't seen anyone get hit. He welcomes the awareness
campaign, saying drivers need a reminder to be careful.
"I'm glad the police are doing this," he said while waiting for
a streetcar at the corner of Yonge and Queen Sts.
"The people getting off are completely innocent. They may be
a little careless, but the penalty could be death, whereas the
guy in the car has a lifetime of guilt."
RYAN urges commuters to just take a moment to make sure they're
not stepping directly into the path of an oncoming car. "Take
that extra second... to check before you're going to jump into
a live lane of traffic."
She has a piece of advice for drivers as well: "If you're a motorist...
give them an extra second, because lots of times, people change
their minds. They're on, then they want to get off, and the Toronto
Transit Commission vehicle may have to come to a sudden stop."
Lisa TAILOR/TAYLOR, who was waiting for the Queen streetcar yesterday,
recently saw a man nearly hit by a car as he was leaving the
streetcar.
"The drivers here in Toronto... are very erratic," says
TAILOR/TAYLOR,
33. "They don't look where they're going."
If the risk to innocent pedestrians isn't enough to convince
motorists to be more careful, the penalty for being careless
should. Passing an open streetcar door can set you back at least
$110, plus three demerit points.

The family is grateful for the support of members of the Rashid
family of Kingston, Ontario and Etobicoke, Ontario. John was
a good friend to many, a mentor, a raconteur and a bon vivant
with a love for anything relating to France. He was an outstanding
father, husband, son, brother and uncle. John grew up and attended
schools in Preston (now Cambridge), Ontario. He graduated from
the University of Toronto and worked for architectural firms
in London, England and Boston, Massachusetts before joining the
firm of Skidmore, Owing and Merrill of New York City. He worked
for nearly a decade as their Resident Architect located in Owensboro,
Kentucky; Greenville, South Carolina; and Des Moines, Iowa. He
was project manager for the Master Plan of the State University
of New York at Buffalo and Job Captain for the Fine Arts Building
at the State University of New York College at Oswego, New York.
While at Skidmore he also researched and designed a moveable
partition system which later became an industry standard. In
1966 John returned to Canada. He worked for Marani Rounthwaite
& Dick in Toronto prior to joining the University of Waterloo
(Ontario) in 1967. He was at Waterloo for 25 years, until his
retirement as the Architectural Program Administrator for the
Co-operative Education. He found great delight in challenging
and mentoring the architectural students in the practical side
of architecture, encouraging them to take co-op positions in
locales far from home, such as Scandinavia, England, Europe,
the Caribbean, and with some of the most successful firms in
the United States. He advised the Nova Scotia Institute of Technology
and Texas A&M University on the establishment and development
of cooperative educational programs. He maintained a small private
residential practice, designing homes in Waterloo, Flesherton,
Talisman Ski Resort (Ontario) and
in Boone, North Carolina. He
also designed renovations in Toronto and elsewhere in Ontario,
one of which received an Award of Merit from Heritage Cambridge.
John was very active in the architectural profession and in his
church. He was known for his sense of fairness and professionalism.
He had been Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Toronto
Chapter of the Ontario Association of Architects, member of the
Committee of Examiners of the Ontario Association of Architects
from 1973-2001 and its Chairman from 1976-2001 (now the Canadian
Architectural Certification Board), and Chairman of the Committee
of Examiners, Ontario Advisory Committee,Royal Architectural
Institute of Canada Syllabus; he chaired the 1970 Convention
of the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada held in Toronto.
He was a member of the Commonwealth Association of Architects
Educational Panel. His many years of leadership and service brought
him two awards of which he was very proud. In 1984 he was made
a Fellow of the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada, the
highest honour a Canadian Architect can receive. In 1987 he was
the 3rd recipient of the Order of da Vinci awarded to those who
have made 'significant contributions' to the profession in Ontario.
He served as a member of the Board of Managers of Rosedale Presbyterian
Church (Toronto), a church he had attended since university.
While in New York, John had enjoyed being a member of the Mendelsohn
Men's Chorus and thus was thrilled when Rosedale invited him
to join the choir for a performance of Handel's 'Messiah'. John
had been Chairman for 19 years of the Committee on Church Architecture
for the Presbyterian Church in Canada, which won a Premier's
Award for Accessibility (1986) for their handbook of standards
and accessibility guidelines for church architecture. A funeral
service will be held at Rosedale Presbyterian Church, 129 South
Drive (corner of South Drive and Mt. Pleasant Road - tel: 416-921-1931)

Vanier worker everyone's Grandma
By April KEMICK,
Free
Press
Reporter
Florence (Peggy)
HOARE dedicated her life to helping children.
After staying home to raise her son and daughter into their teen
years, HOARE became one of Madame Vanier Children's Services
most celebrated staff members for her ability to help troubled
kids.
"When you talk about unconditional caring and concern, that was
Peggy," said former Vanier co-worker Nancy
MILLER.
"She created a real feeling of nurturing and safety and a lot
of the kids looked to her as a grandma," she said.
HOARE died July 5 at 76 from heart problems, leaving behind a
legacy of support for London's needy children.
Her distinguished career began in the early 1970s, when
HOARE
went back to school for Fanshawe College's child and youth worker
program at age 42.
The Toronto native, who met and married her best friend, Don,
in 1951, had two grown children, Stephen and Cathy, and longed
to work with youngsters.
"She was bored and really loved children," daughter Cathy
ADAM/ADAMS
said. "She really should have had 10 kids."
HOARE completed the program in 1973 without having missed a single
class and was hired at Vanier, where she pioneered a home treatment
program.
The dedicated employee brought troubled kids into her home until
they were adopted,
MILLER said.
"She was so good to them," her daughter said. "Everybody was
treated like family."
HOARE, a senior staff member who was looked up to by younger
employees for her "quiet, calming influence," later became a
child and youth counsellor, a position she held for 19 years.
During her time at Vanier,
HOARE also led art therapy sessions
and was known to bring in homemade treats for staff and children.
The grandmother-like figure made a lasting impression on the
kids she worked with, some of whom remembered her decades after
their experiences at Vanier.
"She only retired because she had to,"
MILLER said of
HOARE's
retirement at age 65 in 1994.
Even after she left the agency,
HOARE, an avid knitter, continued
to visit, often bringing in knitted mittens and socks for needy
kids.
"Even after she left, she was still here,"
MILLER said. "We considered
her an honorary lifetime volunteer."

RUTHERFORD lifelong navy man
Donald Cameron
RUTHERFORD had a full navy career and was a active
advocate for it.
By Jonathan
SHER,
Free
Press
Reporter
Commander
Donald
Cameron
RUTHERFORD would have been proud last
week to see the Canadian Navy he tirelessly promoted send three
ships to aid victims of hurricane Katrina.
Born in Sarnia in 1922, the longtime London resident held a litany
of important naval posts in his 29-year career and then, in retirement,
continued as a leading voice supporting the navy into his 80s.
RUTHERFORD, who died in October, enrolled in the Royal Canadian
Navy in 1940 at age 18 and served during the Second World War
aboard the British warships H.M.S. Hood, London, Duke of York
and Woolston.
In 1943, he returned to Canada and served on the H.M.C.S. Ottawa
and Prince Robert. After the war,
RUTHERFORD held important positions
at sea and ashore, including:
- Commanding officer of the H.M.C.S. St. Croix and the Haida,
the latter now a national monument docked in Hamilton.
- Canadian joint staff, Washington, D.C.
- Royal Naval Staff College, Greenwich, England.
- Director of Naval Communications.
- Director of Naval Operational Requirements for Communications,
Command and Control and Electronic Warfare Systems.
RUTHERFORD retired from the navy in 1968 but his work and service
continued.
For the next 18 years, he was a manager at 3M Canada in London,
all the while promoting the navy.
He served as a president of the Royal Canadian Naval Association
and as national director of the Naval Officers Association of
Canada. In those capacities, he mobilized those unhappy with
inadequate naval funding, speaking forcefully at gatherings and
leading e-mail campaigns.
"He didn't pull any punches and he did more than complain," said
Michael HOARE, a former commanding officer of the naval reserve
in H.M.C.S. Prevost in London.
RUTHERFORD believed he had a responsibility to his country and
the navy to advocate for the service, and until his death, he
used the Internet to press his campaign.
"He was really a naval hero,"
HOARE said.
RUTHERFORD also served as chairperson of the London division
of the Canadian Corps of Commissionaires.
"He lived a full and memorable 84 years, which were characterized
by a deep love for family, country and the navy,"
HOARE wrote
in tribute.
