ROSEHART,
Sister
Marilyn
Catherine
At Parkwood Hospital, London on Thursday, March 24, 2005, Sister
Marilyn Rosehar t (formerly Sister Edna Marie), of the Community
of the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Diocese of London, at age
68 years and in her 49th year of religious life. Marilyn is lovingly
remembered and will be sadly missed by her sisters in community
and by her family. Her sisters and brother have been faithfully
with her especially during these past months of her illness.
Marilyn is predeceased by her father Paul in 1945, her mother
Edna (McELHONE) in 2002 and her brother-in-law William
MUSICK
in 1971. Besides her sisters and Friends in community, she is
mourned by her sisters Pat
MUSICK of Dundas, Gerry
DYRKACZ and
her husband Marvin of Calgary, Alberta, Jean
MECH and her husband
Bob of Hamilton, Ginny
LASANOWSKI and her husband Stan of Guelph
and her brother Paul and wife Sharon of Elora. Many nieces and
nephews will remember their aunt as someone who was vitally interested
in their lives - Lynn, Michelle, Lisa, Lori, Erica, Paula, Paul,
Tom, Mike and Mark. Marilyn's memory and vital spirit will be
kept alive for the next generation of great nieces and nephews.
They will carry the goodness of her spirit into the future. Marilyn
was raised in Simcoe and grew up in a close-knit family where
the seeds of responsibility, faith and respect for people were
planted. She had training in both administration and in spiritual
direction and these gifts led her to administrative work in St.
Joseph's Hospital in London and Chatham as well as Saint Mary's
Hospital. She also served in leadership positions within the
Congregation of the Sisters of St. Joseph. More recently she
worked at St. Joseph's Hospitality Centre where she became friend
to so many volunteers and clients alike. Her warmth, sensitive
spirit, keen wit and good old-fashioned practicality created
many lasting relationships. She had a tenacious sense of what
needed to be done and did not let apparent obstacles deter her.
Her Friends always knew her as someone who supported and encouraged
their endeavours. For the last six years she was a co-director
at Medaille Spirituality Centre where she enjoyed creating space
for others to rest and to reflect. Her sense of the beautiful
and her passion for hospitality to others were two strong strands
of her own spirituality. Marilyn and those close to her are so
appreciative of the many people who were part of the last phase
of her journey into God. In particular we wish to extend gratitude
to the nursing staff at Parkwood Palliative Care and Dr. John
SWIFT for their day to day care and encouraging words. Dr. Kelly
REGAN and Dr. Seema
LUKE played significant roles in getting
Marilyn the care that she needed. The Palliative Care Out reach
Team were such a wonderful and constant support. Resting at Mount
St. Joseph Motherhouse, 1486 Richmond Street, N., London on Monday,
March 28, 2005 from 2-5 p.m. and 7-9 p.m. and Tuesday, March
29, 2005 from 9 a.m. until 10: 15 a.m. Mass of the Resurrection
will be celebrated in Immaculate Conception Chapel, Mount St.
Joseph Motherhouse, 1486 Richmond Street, N., London on Tuesday,
March 29 at 10: 30 a.m. Interment to follow in St. Peter's Cemetery.
The Vigil Service will be at Mount St. Joseph Motherhouse on
Monday, March 28, 2005 at 7: 30 p.m. At the request of her family
and in keeping with Marilyn's spirit, in lieu of flowers, donations
to St. Joseph's Hospitality Centre, London, would be appreciated.

Husband, father, brother, grandfather, friend, member of Alcoholics
Anonymous. Born June 9, 1928, in Mitchell, Ontario Died June
17 after a brief illness in Markham, Ontario, aged 77
My father loved to tell stories: stories about growing up in
the Depression; stories that related to his trade -- the operation
of heavy machinery; stories about the characters and goings-on
at the various tracks where he raced thoroughbred horses.
I heard about the escapades and achievements of my brothers and
sisters and, of course, the baby steps and accomplishments of
his nine grandchildren. Stories included interesting people nicknamed
Sticky Battersby, The Wheel or Three Fingers.
My dad would sit on his front porch and recount the vibrant activity
of the neighbourhood. As with most stories told by members of
my family -- perhaps it is the Irish in us -- these stories were
prone to exaggeration.
My father also loved to tell jokes.
But the most important stories in my father's life were not humorous,
were never told, and the characters had no names. These individuals
were very much real, but remained anonymous. On the day my father
died, he had had 48 years and 9 months of sobriety. He was extremely
proud of this achievement. Always "taking it one day at a time,"
he was very public about his involvement with Alcoholics Anonymous,
but would not reveal another member's identity.
As my father was waiting outside the operating room for surgery,
the first in his 77 years, he told a nurse that he had started
the Alcoholics Anonymous chapter at her hospital. I knew that
he had initiated many other Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in
the Greater Toronto Area. The nurse asked my dad if he was going
to attend the upcoming International Alcoholics Anonymous conference
in Toronto; he said he hoped to.
Although my father died before the conference, there is no doubt
that he would have been there, telling anyone who would listen
a story or joke.
Many years ago, for a high-school project, I interviewed my father
about Alcoholics Anonymous and his struggle with alcoholism.
I learned a great deal about his courage in fighting this disease
and the life-saving nature of the Alcoholics Anonymous program
and philosophy.
Growing up, I remember the many late-night calls he received
from alcoholics needing his help. He never once refused to take
them. I remember a man passed out on our front lawn, calling
at the house for my father's assistance. My dad would quietly
help anyone who asked to be helped. He understood the universal
nature of alcoholism, regardless of an individual's sex, race,
age or social situation.
At my father's funeral, a gentleman told my mother that he felt
my father saved his life. He talked with my father almost every
day. My father provided him with encouragement and never judged
him. Others told my family that they would be forever grateful
to my dad for his support, understanding, and positive outlook.
I don't know how many people my father touched through his involvement
with Alcoholics Anonymous; I'm guessing hundreds, perhaps more.
Most of their experiences will never be told publicly, but these
stories will live on in the hearts of those he helped and sponsored.
When my father was buried, placed in the suit pocket closest
to his heart were the well-worn Alcoholics Anonymous prayer and
12-step cards that he had kept in his wallet for almost 49 years.
His anniversary medallions were his most precious belongings
and they were distributed as signs of hope. By sharing the story
of my father's involvement with Alcoholics Anonymous and his
courage in facing the disease of alcoholism, I hope others will
find inspiration and strength to remember "easy does it" and
"one day at a time."
Patricia is James's daughter.

KEATING,
Charles -- I Remember
By Peter HAYS,
Friday,
December 2, 2005, Page S9
Peter HAYS, a Calgary television producer and director, writes
about Charles
KEATING, whose obituary appeared on November 23.
Charles KEATING could be as imposing as he was kind. In the spring
of 2000, I was desperately trying to find financing for a television
satire of A&E's Biography called Liography. It was a project
I had wanted to do with actor Leslie
NIELSEN, and had been commissioned
by the Comedy Network, but had failed to get the full backing
of Telefilm. It was at risk of evaporating.
My friend and former colleague Nancy
REGAN, then a host at
ATV
News in Halifax, suggested I ask Charles for money.
Charles was known to have made a fortune when he sold his Dartmouth
cable company to the Shaw group. As a former reporter for the
Halifax Daily News, I knew he was a big Liberal, but I'd never
asked him for anything. A few days later, I was sitting in his
office, surrounded by dozens of photos of Charles with famous
people. He asked me in a booming voice why he should invest in
my wild idea. "Because," I promised, "You will be repaid in full
before anyone else profits from the project."
"Peter," he growled, "I don't need you to get to heaven." Indeed.
Charles did invest, making the series, which was a success, possible.

HANNIBAL,
Dr.
Emmett
Ronald
Suddenly and unexpectedly on September 25, 2005, Emmett passed
on to a better place. Emmett was born March 21, 1944 in Dumont,
New
Jersey, the eldest child of Emmett Wendell
HANNIBAL and his
wife Julia
BETHEA. He was predeceased by his brother William
and his former wife
Judy
COOK. He is survived by his beloved
son Adam, his sister Ernestine of Newport News, Virginia, her
three children James, Sylvia and Sophia, his sister Carolyn of
Allentown, Pennsylvania, and her two children John and David.
Also left to cherish his memory are his many Friends whose stories
of his life will be shared during the Funeral Service on Wednesday
October 5, 11: 30 a.m. at the Thomson Funeral Chapel. Emmett practised
his selfless respect for others unfailingly. He was the recipient
of a Queen's Jubilee Medal, which pays tribute to individuals
whose achievements have benefited their fellow citizens, community
and country. At the time of his death, Emmett was the Regional
Director of Planning at Health Canada for the Manitoba and Saskatchewan
Region. Prior to this position, he was a Human Resources Officer
with the Public Service Commission, a Project Consultant with
City of Winnipeg, and the Associate Director of Continuing Education
at the University of Winnipeg. Emmett earned his Masters and
Doctorate in Education from Harvard University. His appointment
in 1975 as head of public programs and education at the Winnipeg
Art Gallery brought Emmett to Canada from Boston, Massachusetts.
Emmett spent the years 1980-1981 as visiting curator and lecturer
at the Museum of Anthropology, University of British Columbia.
He returned to Winnipeg in 1981 as chief of public programs at
the Museum of Man and Nature; one of his legacies from this time
was the supervision of the building of the Nonsuch exhibit. Emmett
possessed a unique combination of deep soulfulness and superb
intellect. Those who knew him felt privileged to experience his
essence. His devotion to his faith was expressed in his long
service and commitment to Unity Church. Emmett believed there
was a divine order to life and no matter what challenge or adversity
he faced, he did so with great dignity, discipline and focus.
Emmett tended meticulously to his bonsai collection, was an avid
reader and could speak in depth on almost any subject. Pallbearers
are Art LADD, Luis
CARDONA, Bill
REGEHR, Dwight
GASKIN, Bill
