The moment that you died Loree,
Our hearts were split in two.
Though one side of us is filled with wonderful memories,
The other died with you.
We often lay awake at night,
When the world is fast asleep,
And take a walk down memory lane
With tears upon our cheeks.
Remembering you is easy,
We do it every day.
But missing you is a heartache
That never goes away.
We hold you tightly in our hearts,
And there you will remain,
Life goes on without you,
But it will never be the same.
We love you and miss you more each day - Helen, Brad, Thomas,

One driver dead, second hurt as two trucks collide head-on
By Kelly PEDRO,
Free
Press
Reporter
One man is dead and another was clinging to life yesterday after
two vehicles collided head-on near Strathroy on Tuesday night.
Provincial police said a flatbed truck travelling east on Egremont
Drive around 11 p.m. crossed into the path of a westbound pickup
about a kilometre west of Highway 81. The impact sent both vehicles
into the north ditch.
John Brenten
PETERS, 23, of Adelaide Metcalfe, identified as
the pickup driver, was killed.
The▼ driver of the flatbed, Cameron
RUSSELL, 20, of Nairn, was
taken to Strathroy hospital and transferred to a London hospital,
where he was listed in critical condition.
"We have no indication at this point what happened," said Ontario
Provincial
Police
Sgt. Dave
REKTOR.
REKTOR said the road was straight and flat and weather was not
a factor.
Traffic investigators are waiting to speak to Russell to uncover
more details.
Police are trying to determine whether speed was a factor.
REKTOR
said it doesn't appear that alcohol played a part.
Anyone who may have witnessed the accident is asked to call the
Ontario Provincial Police at 1-888-310-1122.

Robert JEFFREY
By Paul RUSSELL,
Friday,▲▼
January▲ 14, 2005 - Page A16
Actor, singer, producer. Born May 3, 1934, in Winnipeg. Died
September 17, 2004, in Toronto of vascular disease, aged 70.
'I think we should keep in touch," he said smiling as he rolled
up the car window and drove down the street through the snow.
We had met at a post-concert reception at the University of Toronto's
Hart
House. He was introduced as Bob
JEFFREY and we had talked.
Snow was falling and he offered me a drive home in his old Austin
Mini, which had come all the way from Winnipeg with holes in
the floor and a horn operated by touching two wires together.
He was lively, open and possessed of an innate charm. He was
a singer and an actor. It was just before Christmas and he flew
home to Manitoba the next day to see his family for the holidays
and to sing at Saint John's Cathedral. In the first few months
of the new year, when Bob returned to Toronto, I quickly realized
that my new friend was a talented performer, sought after as
lead tenor in oratorios and as a chorus singer on Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation variety shows.
He seemed to be constantly in motion and his passion was driving
a car. He persuaded his bank manager that as a singer/actor,
he was a good risk and the old Mini was exchanged for a new and
sportier Sprite. It was followed later by a series of convertibles.
Then, only a Continental Mark IV would do. His final drive, a
silver Intrepid, had a brand name that aptly reflected its owner's
determination to maintain his quality of life in his last, difficult
years.
That summer of 1961, the Sprite took him to Stratford and the
direction of Sir Tyrone Guthrie. The show was Pirates of Penzance.
The production would move to the United States, then England.
He kept in touch, writing from New York where he bowled with
Kaye Ballard and Jerry Orbach, after the show, late into the
night. He wrote in feigned distress from the U.S. bus tour of
Pirates in which he understudied the male lead, "that guy never
gets sick." Letters from London were full of the excitement of
a Command Performance before the Queen at Her Majesty's Theatre
and a successful audition for the lead role of Tony in West Side
Story that would take him to acclaim and sold-out houses in the
capital cities of Scandinavia.
A few years later, back in New York for rehearsals, he wrote
glowingly of a new musical: Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and
Living in Paris. That show would become part of his life for
the next 15 years, taking him to Boston, Montreal, Ottawa, Philadelphia,
New York, Fredericton, Sudbury, and
to Gravenhurst, Ontario,
for the Muskoka Summer Theatre where he worked with artistic
director Michael Ayoub in the development of a musical theatre
workshop. He bought a log cabin just outside of town and became
a reliable presence in that summer theatre community.
By then we had joined forces to create a production company in
Toronto to put on stage shows sometimes featuring Bob (now called
Robert). Cabaret was popular and Robert was on stage at Old Angelo's,
Theatre in the Dell, the Teller's Cage and the Prince Hotel.
Sometimes it was our production; often it wasn't.
The years brought diversification. In the 1990s, Robert became
enthused by younger artists working in film and video, fostering
their work by helping to create the Paulus Film Group. Paulus
Film Group's first collaborations always featured Robert in cameo
roles.
In September, 2004, weakened by strokes, memory loss, confusion
and occasional fury at his condition, he suddenly turned to me
while I was driving his Intrepid in the afternoon sunlight and
said, smiling: "I think we should keep in touch" and it echoed
crisp and clear across the decades -- the same inflection, the
same smile as the night we met as the snow fell. Five days later,
Robert's heart stopped. There would be no goodbyes.
Paul RUSSELL is Robert
JEFFREY's partner in stage, television
and film production.

Bob McADOREY,
Broadcaster: 1935-2005
Deejay who helped determine what Toronto's youth listened to
in the sixties went on to enjoy a 27-year run as a popular and
irreverent figure on Global television
By F.F. LANGAN,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Wednesday, February
9, 2005 - Page S9
Toronto -- If you knew Peggy Sue, you knew Bob
McADOREY.
That's
because, with his pile of curly hair and horn-rimmed glasses,
the Toronto disc jockey was a ringer for Buddy Holly, the songwriter
and singer from Texas whose song was a hit in 1959. The two men
were born 10 months apart --
McADOREY in 1935, Holly in 1936
and actually met in the mid-1950s when Mr.
McADOREY was a
disc jockey in Guelph, Ontario, and the singer was on a tour
of Canada.
"His job was to introduce Buddy Holly at a concert at Kitchener.
When he went on stage, the crowd went wild, and Bob though 'Gee,
I didn't know I was this popular,' " remembered his sister Pat
RUSSELL. "Of course, they thought he was Buddy Holly."
For decades, Mr.
McADOREY was the entertainment commentator on
Global Television; he retired less than five years ago. But in
an earlier era, he was a household name in Southern Ontario.
In 1960, just a few months after Buddy Holly died in a plane
crash in 1959, his look-alike joined Toronto's
CHUM.
Almost overnight,
Bob McADOREY became the top disc jockey at
CHUM, the No. 1 rock
station in the country. He was astonished when the station paid
him what he was asking for -- $7,200 a year (about $50,000 in
today's money, according to the Bank of Canada's inflation calculator).
"Bob McADOREY, whose face is as well known in Toronto as Mayor
Givens, has the most power to dictate what pop music Ontario
teens listen to," wrote the Toronto Telegram in 1966.
Not only was he the on-air man in the key 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. slot,
he was also the music director. He chose the records the other
six disc jockeys played. He and the other disc jockeys decided
on CHUM's
Top 10, which sent kids to record stores to buy records
with a big hole in the middle and a song on each side. They spun
at 45 revolutions a minute and were called 45s.
"He alone commands what goes on the hit parade in Canada," wrote
The
Globe's
Blake
KIRBY in 1968. "Middle-aged squares who run
record stores use the
CHUM chart, the weekly list of what
McADOREY
is playing and plugging as a buying guide."
Along the way, he shared the footlights with such big-name visitors
as the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.
The CHUM hit parade made records such as The Unicorn by the Irish
Rovers. Mr.
McADOREY, a sentimental Irish-Canadian, pushed the
record, which sold 140,000 copies in Canada and a million in
the United States. But he didn't like everything on the
CHUM
chart. It was a business, after all.
"We're playing records here which I just can't bear to listen
to, but I wouldn't let that influence what goes on the air,"
Mr. McADOREY once told The Globe and Mail. His sister said that
when he went home after work, he was so sick of rock 'n' roll
that he put earphones on and listened to classical music.
Like many successful big-city disc jockeys, Mr.
McADOREY also
ran dances on the weekends -- events with such names as Bob McAdorey's
Canadian Bandstand or Canadian Hopville. He and a couple of other
disc jockeys owned a company called Teen Scene Ltd., which put
on dances in towns all over Southern Ontario.
After a long spell on
CHUM,
Bob
McADOREY either was too old --
he was well into his 30s -- or too tired, and so he suddenly
found himself fired. Unlike the regular corporate world, where
people resign, in radio they are just plain sacked. Disc jockeys
almost wear it as a badge of honour.
"There are no hard feelings," he told an entertainment writer
in 1972 after he had been sacked from
CFTR following a stint
at CFGM. "I was told that it was either the station's new music-and-contests
format or me." Within days, he had rejoined radio station
CFGM.
A few years later, he morphed into television. No one told him
that radio types, from the hot side of the Marshall McLuhan equation,
are not supposed to be able to make the switch to the cool world
of television. He perched on his stool in 1973 and performed
for about 27 years.
Bob McADOREY was born within earshot of the Niagara Falls. His
father worked as a machinist on the railway and the whole family
lived near both the tracks and the roundhouse at Niagara Falls,
Ontario
For the rest of his life, Mr.
McADOREY maintained a love
affair with trains and rode them at every opportunity.
He went to high school at Stamford Collegiate. An Irish Catholic,
he was one of two non-Protestants in the class. The other was
Barbara FRUM, later the host of The Journal and
As It Happens
on Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The two would spend the
religious class in another room, enjoying their time off.
In Grade 12, Mr.
McADOREY started work at the local radio station,
doing a program in the early morning before class. "One day,
the station manager told me to go on air and do the play-by-play
of a local baseball game," he told the Toronto Star in 2000.
"I didn't know the players' names and I didn't know much about
baseball, so I sat in the bleachers and interviewed the spectators
and it seemed to work."
After that, he was hooked. For a time, he worked all over --
including radio station
CJDC in remote Dawson's Creek, British
Columbia
Even then, he was fairly outrageous. "
CJDC had access
to Canadian Broadcasting Corporation feeds," he said in 2000.
"But nobody monitored us, so we sold everything -- the one o'clock
time signal to a jewellery store, the Queen's Christmas Message
brought to you by Sammy's Bar and Grill."
But it was soon after he had moved to Guelph, Ontario, that things
really began to happen and he hit the big time at the age of
24 by working for
CHUM.
Though he may have been at the top of the pop game in the Toronto
of the sixties, he also became a national figure at Global as
it expanded from a base in Southern Ontario to become the country's
third network. He never applied for a job in television, it was
just chance.
Bill CUNNINGHAM, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation foreign
correspondent brought in to run Global News, hired him after
he saw him speak during a tour of the new television station.
At the time, Mr.
McADOREY was working for Alan
SLAIGHT, a prescient
broadcaster who had run
CHUM, bought
CFGM and was one of the
early owners of Global. Mr.
CUNNINGHAM's plan was to lighten
up the newscast and hire a kind of humourist-commentator. Thus,
Mr. McADOREY covered entertainment and did light pieces for the
newscast, heading out with a cameraman to find what he could.
Once, during an Air Canada strike, he drifted out to Toronto's
Pearson International Airport and happened to find Terminal 2
entirely deserted. The scene made irresistible camera fodder.
The pair had time to erect an impromptu bowling alley and roll
a few balls before the party was broken up by patrolling policemen.
The show was an enduring success. It helped that Mr.
McADOREY
was good-looking, possessed a great voice and was totally unaffected
and unpretentious. Behind the scenes, though, Global was in turmoil
and not just financially.
The network kept trying to reinvent itself. One idea was to bring
in an untried newsreader, Suzanne
PERRY, who was one of Pierre
TRUDEAU's press aides and whose son, Matthew
PERRY, went on to
fame in the sitcom Friends. Sadly, Ms.
PERRY was put on air before
she was ready and that experiment failed.
A short while afterward, the network tried something called News
at Noon, with Bob
McADOREY doing entertainment, Mike
ANSCOMBE
the sports, and John
DAWE, business. The three of them joked,
made fun of each other, and did and said things you weren't supposed
to see on television. All of a sudden, they had a huge audience,
unheard of at that time of day.
"We broke new ground with 300,000 viewers at noon," said business
reporter John
DAWE. "
Then it expanded and we did the 5: 30 news
as well. We worked together for 14 years."
As he matured, Mr.
McADOREY lost his Buddy Holly looks. Instead,
he was often mistaken for another famous person with glasses
and a mass of curly hair -- Ken
TAILOR/TAYLOR, the Canadian ambassador
to Iran who sheltered American colleagues during the 1979-80
hostage crisis.
At Global, the news department kept trying new things and new
people, though the on-air staff remained pretty much the same.
One producer didn't like the jocular format. And Mr.
McADOREY
didn't like him. He rebelled by being provocative on air.
"It's Friday, and I didn't really feel much like working today.
The boss is out of town so I took it easy this afternoon, stretching
out in my office, reading and daydreaming," he began his part
of the 6 p.m. newscast on April 8, 1983. It got him fired.
"Unprofessional and insulting to the viewers," read the note
from his pompous producer. The viewers thought otherwise. Phone
lines buzzed and letters landed on all the right desks. Two weeks
later, the producer was fired and Bob
McADOREY was rehired.
As host of Entertainment Desk from 1991 to 1997, he guided it
through many lively segments. Among the most memorable was the
appearance of comedienne Judy Tenuta. "[She] pretty well took
over the show, which bothered some viewers but not me," he once
said. "Her wild style made for bizarre television. Most of the
interview was done with Judy sitting on my lap making semi-lewd
comments."
For all that, he never did like producers. At the time of his
retirement in July, 2000, Andrew
RYAN of The Globe and Mail asked
him what advice he would give to aspiring young entertainment
journalists. "Producers are dorks, actors are jerks," Mr.
McADOREY
answered. "The only ones worth talking to are directors."
Having been asked to retire, he said he had no expectations of
a gold watch. Rather, "how about a gold boot up the butt? Retirement
was not my idea. I always thought I had a few more good years
left."
Instead, he chose to retire quietly at his home in Niagara-On-The-Lake,
Ontario His main hobby was reading and he was something of an
authority on James Joyce. An Irish nationalist, he had a lifelong
obsession with the great Dublin writer.
Robert Joseph
McADOREY was born in Niagara Falls, Ontario, on
July 24, 1935. He died on February 5 at St. Catharines, Ontario
He was 70 and had suffered prolonged illness. He is survived
by daughter Colleen, sister Pat and brother Terry. He was predeceased
by his wife and by two of three children.

Linda ARNOTT
By Norma SHEPHARD,
Thursday,
February 17, 2005 - Page A30
Sister, friend, aunt. Born December 31, 1948 in Hamilton, Ontario,
Died January 10, of acute renal failure, aged 56.
Linda ARNOTT was Linda
ARNOTT: no nicknames, aliases, titles,
or abbreviations. No Mississippi, Ms, or Mrs. Not even a middle
name. Although she laughed with Friends when a credit card arrived
in the name of Mister Linda
ARNOTT, she did not appreciate anyone
messing with her name. "Don't call me Lin," she might say if
you attempted an endearment. "That's not my name."
If you were to visit Linda, you would sit at her kitchen table.
You might find her doing crosswords with a large mug of tea
a sugar bowl, creamer, and spoon, all within easy reach. "She
drank pails-full of tea," remembers friend and former co-worker,
Laura RUSSELL. "
But on days when she felt under the weather,
she drank ginger ale or 'sick pop,' as she called it." Linda
was well acquainted with sickness. She lived with diabetes and
lupus, an autoimmune disorder named for the wolf. Like the wolf,
Linda was social and loyal to family, yet comfortable being alone.
She might lash out, if she felt cornered or offended, but only
then.
In her younger days, Linda used her kitchen as a gathering place
for Friends and workmates. The group would convene at Linda's
for refreshments and a chat before heading out to a dance. Her
house was especially full on New Year's Eve, Linda's birthday.
Friends dropped by to say hello and "Happy Birthday" whether
they planned to stay and party with their hostess, or were on
their way to another event.
Over the years, Linda opened her home to Friends who wanted to
talk over their troubles or who needed a place to stay. She kept
a list of those for whom she'd provided refuge -- for a few days,
a week, or even a month -- while they sorted out their problems.
Linda's introspective and self-evaluating nature caused her to
be sentimental about Friends and family. She kept every card
and letter she ever received and periodically reviewed them.
I met Linda in 1983 when she volunteered to help a friend help
me with a surprise party that I had planned for my husband. While
I dealt with three young children and a caterer, Linda took her
cue from a felt tablecloth, with giant black and red spades,
clubs, hearts and diamonds on it, and quietly transformed my
house with similarly themed decorations and tableware. When guests
arrived she headed for the kitchen.
"At work, Linda was a plain Jane," recalls Laura
RUSSELL. "
But
for Christmas parties she would dress in a long gown, apply makeup,
and remove her glasses for the night, even though she couldn't
see without them." Linda worked first in the stockroom at Zeller's
in Hamilton's downtown core. When the location closed she took
employment with the Hamilton General and Henderson General Hospitals
first as a porter, then in the central supply room. After 15
years, health concerns forced her to take disability leave. "Some
days her skin tormented her so that she was kept from her regular
duties," says her sister. "But she never complained." She took
things like home repairs and daily problems in stride, except
for the time some hazelnuts went missing and she discovered to
her horror that squirrels had somehow entered her house.
Linda possessed a strong will. She didn't drive but that didn't
stop her from purchasing a Bentwood rocker as a gift for a friend.
She carried the chair from the mall to an apartment building
a few blocks away. There she assembled it. "She never shrank
from a challenge," remembers her cousin, Gale
McQUEEN.
Linda will be remembered for her quick wit, sense of humour,
and love of a happy time, an attitude that she maintained through
sickness and difficulty to the end. "A drink, a smoke, and a
laugh -- that was Linda," says her sister, Diane
GAMBLE.
Norma is a friend of Linda
ARNOTT.

FERGUSON,
Agnes
Ann (née
SMYTH)
Went to be with her Lord and her loving husband David early in
the morning of November 15, 2005 after a lengthy illness. Mom
will be forever missed by her fourteen children Terry Ann (John)

FERGUSON, Shelley (Dave
BELL)
FERGUSON. She
is loved by her sister Nancy
ENRIGHT and brothers Terry and Kevin
SMYTH.
She is united with her sister Eileen
CARNEGIE and brothers
Frank and Stan
SMYTH who predeceased her. Mom was blessed with
her grandchildren Vince (Karin), Jill, Charlene, Nicole (Glenn),
Patrick, Krista (Craig), Karl, Kyle, Bob (Tonia), Kevin (Lisa),
Sarah, Kathleen, Joseph, Jonathan, Jason (Terrie), Becky, Kyle
(Kendra), Lindsay, Derek, Craig, Mark, Julia, Casey, Allana,
Danielle, Sophia, Bianca, David and great-grandchildren Abby,
Brooklyn, Evan and Ky. She also leaves behind many sisters-in-law
and brothers-in-law. Mom was born in England on August 5, 1927
and at the age of three moved to Canada with her family, where
she later met her husband David. Raising fourteen children in
tough times was a full time job, however, this exceptional mother
always worked late at night at a "real" job for extra income
to help support her family. Many will remember her little car
up and down the concessions as a rural route mail lady. For many
years Mom was a lifetime member of the Royal Canadian Legion
where she volunteered her time and efforts. Mom loved her bingo,
her bowling and her golf. In retirement she enjoyed wintering
in Panama City and Phoenix where she was a true sun worshipper.
If wealth were measured by family and Friends, Mom had riches
beyond compare. Our family would like to thank the staff, physicians
and nurses at The Wynfield in Oshawa and Markham Stouffville
Hospital for their wonderful care. Friends may call at Low and
Low Funeral Home, Uxbridge for visitation on Thursday, November
17, 2005 from 1-4 p.m. and 6-9 p.m., and Funeral Mass on Friday,
November 18, 2005 at 11: 30 a.m. at Sacred Heart Catholic Church,
Uxbridge. Interment Uxbridge Cemetery. In Mom's memory, donations
may be made to the Royal Canadian Legion or the Canadian Cancer
Society. "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is necessary
before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or
lifetimes, is certain for those who are Friends."
