McBRIDE,
Joseph "
Joe"
Charles
Passed away peacefully after a lengthy illness at the Royal Victoria
Hospital, Barrie on Sunday, November 27, 2005, in his 77th year.
Predeceased by his beloved wife Elizabeth (Betty), he will be
lovingly remembered by his sons Michael and wife Kelly of Barrie,
Stephen and wife Katherine of Barrie, and daughters Kathryn and
husband Mike
BELCHER of Minden, Lisa
McBRIDE, and Laurie and
husband Kevin
BROWN of Barrie. Devoted grandpa to Jessica, Joshua,
Alyssa, Matthew, Brittany, Tyler, Justin, and Meghan. Joe also
leaves his dear brother Eugene
McBRIDE and wife
Cathie, and sisters
Mary BLUCHER,
Evelyn
WHITE/WHYTE, and Anne
ALGAR. Fondly remembered
by friend and companion Frances
ROSE.
Joe
McBRIDE was born and
raised in Barrie. As a teenager he excelled in sports, especially
in the boxing ring and on the wrestling mat. He was considered
a determined hard worker, manning the boilers on the Canadian
Steamship, "The Edmonton", to donning the hat of an officer in
the Innisfil police force. Joe was a people person and an avid
businessman who worked for several petroleum companies as owner
/ operator for over 25 years. He carried on "old school" business
ethics, where he was known to close a deal with a simple handshake.
Joe's love of horses led him to be involved with most aspects
of the Standardbred industry including owner, trainer and tack
shop operator; Joe's passion and insight into the harness horse
industry led to the creation of the thriving family run business,
"McBride Trailers" located in Barrie. Joseph
McBRIDE touched
many lives and will surely be missed by all. Friends may call
at the Steckley-Gooderham Funeral Home, 201 Minet's Point Road
(at Yonge St.), Barrie, on Wednesday from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. A
Funeral Mass will be held from Saint John Vianney Church on Thursday,
December 1, 2005 at 10 a.m. Cremation. In lieu of flowers, memorial
donations to the Royal Victoria Hospital Regional Cancer Care
Centre would be appreciated. The family wish to express their
sincere gratitude to all the doctors, nurses and staff at the
Royal Victoria Hospital, especially those in the complex care
ward for their compassion and outstanding care. Condolences may

Patient at centre of hospital dispute dies
By James RUSK,
Saturday,
January 22, 2005 - Page A11
Christopher
BLUE, a frail 71-year-old man who was forcibly discharged
under police escort from Toronto General Hospital on January
7, died Wednesday night at Sunnybrook hospital after being taken
off life support, a friend speaking for the family said yesterday.
His care at Toronto General had become the centre of a dispute
between his family and the hospital, which reached the point
that the two sides communicated other through their lawyers.
Mr. BLUE, who had a number of incurable conditions, suffered
a stroke at Thanksgiving and was taken to Toronto General. After
three months, a letter from a hospital lawyer ordered him discharged.
He was taken by private ambulance to his Scarborough home, where
a Toronto Emergency Services ambulance was waiting. It took him
to Sunnybrook, which admitted him.

Marianne BLUGER,
Poet: (1945-2005)
A victim of breast cancer, she died the day she published her
10th volume of poetry, titled The Eternities
By Ron CSILLAG,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Friday, November
25, 2005, Page S9
Toronto -- Marianne
BLUGER wrote poetry because, as she once
said, it was all she was ever good at. Only those very close
to her know whether that bit of characteristic modesty was really
true. The rest of us just know that she was a very, very good
poet.
Although not a household name, Ms.
BLUGER published 10 volumes
of clean, precise, evocative verse ranging from intense lyrical
poems to delicate, spare examples of haiku and tanka (traditionally,
31 syllables in five lines). She was among Canada's leading and
most respected practitioners of Japanese poetic traditions, admittedly
not a big community, but her work won a Canada Council Arts Award
and the Archibald Lampman Award for Poetry. She had a strong
following in the United States, where she won first prize in
the annual Tanka Splendor contest, and
in Japan, which honoured
her with the Hoshito-Mori Prize.
She worked until the breast cancer, first diagnosed 13 years
ago, claimed her, correcting her poems by ear as her husband
read them at her bedside. She died on the day her 10th volume
was launched in Toronto. It is titled The Eternities.
A deeply religious, even mystical Anglican, Ms.
BLUGER also drew
on her Jewish heritage, a long experience with Zen meditation,
and western political activism. Her haikus and tanka have been
likened to photographs or paintings, providing quick snapshots,
but in three dimensions. Known for their Zen-like simplicity
and grace, they describe mundane events such as highway driving
and the onset of winter as things of beauty. As one critic said,
they are about how to see.
"There was absolutely no B.S. in her work, no pretense at all,"
said Richard Stevenson, an old friend of Ms.
BLUGER's who teaches
poetry at Lethbridge Community College. "It was all stripped
down to the barest elements. She made it look easy."
She wasn't published until 1981, when a collection titled The
Thumbless Man is at the Piano made its appearance. She was 36
at the time. Other volumes included Gathering Wild (1987), Tamarack
& Clearcut (1997), a book of haiku illustrated with photographs
by Rudi Haas, and Scissor, Paper, Woman (2000). A 1998 volume,
Gusts, was the first book-length collection of tanka published
in Canada, and inspired a journal by the same name devoted entirely
to the form.
"Hats off to you, Marianne, for showing the rest of us untutored
louts how it's done," enthused Mr. Stevenson in reviewing this
year's publication of Ms.
BLUGER's book of tanka, Zen Mercies/Small
Satoris. "This book, rightfully, should inspire generations of
poets interested in the unvarnished, real McCoy."
Like this lean offering from Gusts:
In a ruined orchard
among drenched leaves
I found you these
mist-silvered
fat blue plums.
Mr. BLUGER's poems reflect a deep spirituality and connectedness
to nature, notes Marilyn
ROSE, a Brock University expert on 20th-century
Canadian women poets. While John McCrae's In Flanders Fields
has become a kind of anthem for these occasions, consider Ms.
BLUGER's cut-to-the-bone haiku, Remembrance Day, from Early Evening
Pieces (2003).
bagpipes wheeze
through the cenotaph mist
a thin line of vets
As Prof. ROSE points out, loss is conveyed in just three lines,
11 words and a single image. Economical? More than any editor
would dare dream.
Don't be fooled, though. That sort of austerity takes passion,
the same kind that drove her love for "that poor radical, Jeshua,
the Christ" in The Eternities, which is mostly a homage to her
father, Walter Vladimir
BLUGER. A mathematician who died in 1986,
her father was a convert to his wife's Anglicanism but did not
divulge that he had been a Jewish Holocaust survivor until his
daughter was an adult. Born in Berlin to parents who had fled
Russian pogroms, he escaped to Britain but was interned in a
prison camp. Two ships later took the inmates to safety, one
vessel going to Canada and the other to Australia. The latter
was sunk, with all aboard.
For a German Jew's daughter
how exactly was she to conduct the
business of life
when sipping a soda at the mall
she would feel fraught happiness
as some kind of criminal failure
of consciousness
Add
Zen to the mix. In the late 1960s, Ms.
BLUGER dropped out
of medical school to marry a Korean refugee and Zen master. That
was after she had turned down an offer to study philosophy at
Oxford following her graduation from McGill University, where
she befriended the poet Louis Dudek.
Though meditation and Zen's stillness appealed to her and influenced
her work, the troubled marriage didn't last. Her poem, The Zen
Master's Wife, hinted at the trauma.
On the other hand, a robust personality seemed to become even
fuller:
On my personal
Jewish Zen Christian
Calendar
every day Pesah
every day Easter
As for making a living, Ms.
BLUGER spent 25 years administering
the Ottawa-based Canadian Writers' Foundation, which provides
assistance to authors in financial need.
It was only in her late 30s that she came to see her talent as
God-given.
"Poetry moves me to a kind of reverence," she once wrote. "When
I engage with poetry, I become contemplative and mystically transported
to a deeper awareness, to a kind of enlivened, prayerful consciousness
and to gratitude...
"Poetry soothes and heals me... all I am any good at is poems."
In 1991, she married Larry
NEILY, an avid birder and fellow nature
lover whose on-line updates on his wife's failing health during
her last two months moved readers to tears.
Ms. BLUGER co-founded Christians Against Apartheid and the Tabitha
Foundation, which brings humanitarian aid to Cambodia and has
helped thousands of women there set up small businesses. She
ran her Ottawa church's Sunday school for years, and visited
the sick and elderly.
Not much frightened her, says Mr.
NEILY, "but she was often bought
to tears by the meanness of other people."
She did, however, see mostly good in people, recalls fellow Ottawa
poet Ronnie R.
BROWN. "
She was happiest to acknowledge people
and tell them she cared for them. I never saw anyone face death
with such radiance. She profoundly believed she would meet with
us later and that her work would live on. And it will."
Indeed, a posthumous volume, Nude With Scar -- the manuscript
she edited on her deathbed -- is due out next year.
Marianne
Sasha
Bluger
NEILY was born in Ottawa on August 28,
1945, and died there of cancer on October 29, 2005. She was 60.
She leaves her husband, her mother, two children, one grandchild
and three siblings.

BLUGER,
Marianne -- I Remember
By Allan SHIPLEY,
Saturday,
December 3, 2005 Page, S11
Toronto -- Allan
SHIPLEY of Toronto writes about Marianne
BLUGER,
whose obituary appeared on November 25.
Marianne was my friend since we were philosophy students at McGill
University in Montreal more than 40 years ago. I have never known
another person like her. Marianne's quest for truth was not just
an intellectual exercise but a life to be lived. Equally, she
loved the beauty of nature and of the human soul. In poetry,
she found a public way to share her passion for truth and her
compassion for others. But she also shared in very personal and
direct ways.
When she and her two children were living in poverty she insisted
on giving her grandmother's brass candlestick to us as a wedding
present. Later, she would often mark special occasions with the
gift of a poem.
But the greatest gift she gave us was herself. Too ill to attend
the launch of The Eternities, a collection of deeply personal
poems, she asked my wife Jocelyn and me, along with Professor
Margo SWISS and Reverend Roland
KAWANO, to appear and read on her
behalf. By entrusting these poems to us, she placed her innermost
self in our hands. An early morning e-mail alerted us that the
end was near. The reading of each poem felt as if it were a eulogy.
Afterward, we learned she had died just three hours before we
read her words.
One of her last wishes was to tell her Friends that they were
the most important thing in her life. We hope she knew that for
her Friends, she was as important to them as they were to her.
