My big brother Trevor,
Even though we never met,
I feel like we have
I know that you are beside me always

and some day I'll come play with you
I wish you a big happy birthday and hope
you eat lots of chocolate cake.
We love you with all our hearts, miss you every day and long
to see your face

Jack COYNE,
Lawyer: 1919-2005
A specialist in international trade and administrative law, he
served on a panel that resolved disputes in the Canada-U.S. free-trade
agreement, writes Sandra
MARTIN. As an Royal Canadian Air Force
pilot, he won the Distinguished Flying Cross
By Sandra MARTIN,
Saturday,
July 2, 2005, Page S9
Rhodes Scholar, decorated veteran and distinguished tax lawyer,
Jack COYNE loved the law, history and his family. Although intensely
private, his life merged with the public interest because of
his own achievements and the controversies that flared around
his brother James when he was governor of the Bank of Canada
and his daughter Deborah when she was romantically involved with
Pierre TRUDEAU.
He was the youngest of three children of James Bowes
COYNE, a
prominent Winnipeg judge, and Edna Margaret
ELLIOT/ELLIOTT.
Jack was
nine years younger than his brother James, and four years younger
than his sister Sally (now
GOUIN.) "I was very fortunate," she
said this week, "because I grew up with my older brother Jim,
and my younger brother Jack grew up with me."
Remembering her brother as a very charming young man who was
extremely good looking and intelligent, she said he was always
popular because he played the piano. "And you know how it is
when you're young and there's a gathering and there's a piano
and somebody knows you play and you spend the rest of the time
there." Years later, it became a family tradition for Mr.
COYNE's
five children, all of whom took piano lessons, to give their
father recordings of their playing on his birthday.
Although not a natural athlete, he delighted in winter sports,
especially hockey, which he learned to play on frozen ponds in
Manitoba, and skiing, which he did with his own family every
weekend in Ottawa. He was tall, about 6 feet, and slim with a
short trunk and long legs and arms -- a bit like a daddy-long-legs.
"He had a long stride which he used to full effect, partly because
he had been taught to march during the war," says his son John.
An able student, he finished high school at 16, earned an honours
degree in history and economics from the University of Manitoba
four years later and won a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford in 1940
as his older brother Jim had done before him in 1932. "It
was a little diminishing," said Mrs.
GOUIN. "I graduated from
university without any great distinction, but I was very proud
of my brothers."
Mr. COYNE always played down this achievement. "There weren't
a lot of people in Manitoba back then, so your odds of getting
one were pretty good." Besides, in 1940, he was much more interested
in donning a uniform than an academic gown. He postponed the
Rhodes Scholarship and found a job with the Bureau of Statistics
(now Statistics Canada) while he figured out how he could get
overseas and fight in the war.
In late 1941 (again like his older siblings), he enlisted in
the Royal Canadian Air Force. Both
COYNE men became pilots, each
graduating at the top of his class, while their sister trained
recruits and later worked in an administrative capacity at headquarters.
When Jack qualified as a pilot, his sister's boss decided it
would be "terrific publicity" if she, wearing her air force uniform,
pinned the wings on her little brother.
After Mr. COYNE went overseas in 1942, he was stationed in northern
Scotland and flew reconnaissance and bombing missions against
German shipping off the coast of Norway. On one of these strikes,
his squadron leader's plane was destroyed and his own plane,
a Bristol Beaufighter, was hit and turned upside down. "He was
able to right the plane and led his fellows back safely to home
port," said his older brother Jim. He was awarded the Distinguished
Flying Cross for "skill, courage and resolution."
After the war, he took up his Rhodes Scholarship at Queen's College,
where he showed off his skating skills as captain of the university
hockey team in the Spengler Cup tournament. He graduated with
a first-class bachelor's degree in law in 1947 and was called
to the bar at Lincoln's Inn in London. The next year, he qualified
to practise in Manitoba and Ontario; he settled in Ottawa, where
he became a partner in the firm Herridge, Tolmie, Gray, Coyne
& Blair. It later merged with Osler, Hoskin and Harcourt.
Unlike his older brother, who quickly abandoned law for the intricacies
of monetary policy at the Bank of Canada (where he served as
governor for a tumultuous period when John
DIEFENBAKER was prime
minister,) Mr.
COYNE stuck with the law, but honed his practice
to suit his interests in history, business and Canada's place
in the world.
He specialized in international trade and administrative law
and "very quickly carved out a real niche for himself in the
1960s as the acknowledged expert in Canada on anti-dumping,"
said his son John, general counsel for Unilever Canada. Another
huge early case was his involvement in the trans-Canada pipeline
debate. His specialty allowed him more scope than the straightforward
practice of corporate law and got him closer to the business
world than many of his colleagues.
"He was always interested in the inter-relationship between Canada
and the rest of the world, which was probably an outgrowth of
his experience during the war and
at Oxford," said his son. Mr.
COYNE represented some of the largest firms in North America
and served on the Canadian roster of panelists for dispute settlement
procedures under Chapter 19 of the Canada-U.S. free-trade agreement.
Lawyer Ron
CHENG, who worked closely with Mr.
COYNE at Oslers
in the early 1980s, described his mentor as an old-school lawyer
who set an example by doing rather than by telling. "He was one
of the hardest-working lawyers I have ever come across. He was
thorough down to the last detail, exploring every facet of an
issue or problem and anticipating arguments from the other side,"
said Mr. CHENG. "He was a wonderful advocate who spoke compellingly
and had the ability to draw an analogy from everyday life to
give immediacy to a dry and arcane aspect of the law."
He had an impetuous side, too. "He had a sense of fun and he
was a fast driver, a fact that was confirmed by everybody who
drove with him," said Mr.
CHENG. "He drove his car the way I'm
sure he used to fly his Beaufighter."
If the law was Mr.
COYNE's profession, his family was his passion.
In 1952, he married Margery Joan
DANIELS.
They had five children
Jennifer, Deborah, Barbara, John and Ryland. Jennifer remembers
the family codes, such as MIK (more in the kitchen) or FHB (family
hold back) that were invariably delivered with a wink at the
dinner table. She says her father fostered independent thought
and freedom of choice in his children, loved them all unconditionally,
and taught them to always be there for each other, as he had
been for them.
Two of his children followed him into law. Deborah, now a judge
with the Immigration and Refugee Board, figured on the public
stage in the 1980s because of her political affiliation with
then Newfoundland premier Clyde
WELLS in the move to abort the
Meech
Lake accord and her romantic liaison with Pierre
TRUDEAU,
which culminated in the birth of their daughter Sarah in 1991.
In his early 70s, Mr.
COYNE began showing early signs of Alzheimer's
disease, an affliction that gradually erased his prodigious memory
and his independence. "It is a terrible disease," said his sister.
"Not only does it rob the individual of all of his intelligence,
but how devastating it must be to see your father disintegrating
before your eyes."
Mr. COYNE's son John divides the progression of his father's
Alzheimer's into three stages, beginning in the early 1990s when
his mother became alarmed at his father's forgetfulness. Within
a couple of years, Mr.
COYNE himself knew something was amiss,
"but it was one of those things he didn't want to talk about,"
his son says, explaining that silence is one of the concomitant
tragedies of this "terrible affliction." The third stage came
when the children realized their father was seriously impaired.
He continued to go to his law office every day until the time
came when he could no longer remember how to get home. That was
when his family made the decision to put him into an institution,
in 2000.
"That's a day I won't forget," said John
COYNE, "because I was
the one who had to take him to the home [Perley Rideau Veterans'
Health Centre] and sit chatting with him as all of the kids left
the room one by one, and him not really knowing at that point
that this was where he was going to be spending the rest of his
days."
John (Jack) McCreary
COYNE was born in Winnipeg on June 20, 1919.
He died of Alzheimer's disease in Ottawa on June 28, 2005. He
was 86. His wife, Joan, predeceased him, on July 3, 2002.
He is survived by his five children, their partners, nine grandchildren
and his siblings James
COYNE and Sally
GOUIN.
His life will be celebrated at St. Bartholomew's Anglican Church
in Ottawa on Tuesday.

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)
on Saturday, September 17 at 11 a.m. A reception will follow
in the church hall. (Toronto Transit Commission: Sherbourne Street
street parking or at Branksome Hall parking lot, southeast corner
of Elm and Mt. Pleasant). There will be a visitation held at
the church on Friday, September 16 from 7-9 p.m. A private family
interment in the ancestral
(WARNER family) plot in the Wilton
Cemetery (Ontario) is planned for a later date. John's corneas
have been donated for transplant and the family encourages you
to consider organ and tissue donation and to donate blood at
a time when supplies are low. If desired, contributions to any
of the following would support John's lifetime interests: Rosedale
Presbyterian Church; Knoxfra Fund, Knox College, University of
Toronto; Evangel Hall (a mission of the Presbyterian Church in
Canada); the Scott Mission or the South Muskoka Memorial Hospital
in Bracebridge, Ontario.
