HERZOG,
William "
Bill
Joseph," M C.A. (1939-2005)
At the age of 66, after an inspiring and brave battle with a
brain tumour, Bill died at Freeport Hospital on Sunday, August
7, 2005. Beloved husband of Patricia
(NIX) for over 40 years.
Proud and loving father of daughters Wendy and her husband Mike
KELLY and Lori and her husband Tom
MADDEN.
Adoring and adored
Papa to Kristin and Liam
KELLY and Brynne and Ben
MADDEN.
Bill
is survived by his mother, Claire
HERZOG and father-in-law Robert
NIX and his wife
Ellen.
Bill was a loving brother to Shirley
(Charlie) DAUB,
Karen
(Dave)
KOWALSKI and Ron
HERZOG and his
wife Jan.
Also survived by sisters-in-law Wendy
NIX and Barbara
PITCHER and brother-in-law Ken
NIX and his wife
Cathy.
His many
nieces, nephews, cousins and surviving aunts and uncles, will
lovingly remember Bill. Predeceased by his father Anthony
HERZOG
and his mother-in-law Helen
NIX.
Bill had a long and revered
career with both Zehrs Markets and Loblaw Companies, retiring
from the position of Senior Vice President of Finance with Loblaw
Companies East at the end of 2000. Bill's name conveys many things
to so many people. He was a proud man who loved his life, his
family and his Friends. He valued his community and worked hard
to support the causes he was so passionate about. Bill was past
President of the KW Racquet Club, Westmount Golf and Country
Club and the Kitchener Conestoga Rotary Club, where he was presented
with a Paul Harris Fellowship Award. Upon his retirement in 2000,
he put his many talents to volunteering in the community and
has served on many committees and boards including the Saint Mary's
Hospital Foundation, Kids Ability Foundation, President's Choice
Children's Charity and the W. Garfield Weston Foundation in Toronto.
Bill took advantage of everything that life could offer him.
He loved to travel and share his adventures and 'finds' with
those close to him. He was an athlete who excelled at every sport
he tried and who followed sports with passion and enthusiasm.
Bill loved to spend time with his Friends and embraced the opportunity
to meet new people. He was an avid supporter of the Stratford
Festival and enjoyed relaxing with dear Friends over a wonderful
bottle of wine. Bill will be warmly remembered for his clipping
and sharing of newspaper and magazine articles. To receive an
envelope of clippings from Bill was to know that this incredibly
special man was thinking of you. For many, those envelopes will
be sadly missed. Visitation will be held at Edward R. Good Funeral

from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. The funeral mass to

Dad, 23, electrocuted
Flagpole mishap costs Adam
DOW his life and leaves wife
Kelly
to raise their twin baby sons.
By Melinda
DALTON,
Free
Press
Reporter
With nine-week-old twin boys, a new house in Lucan for his young
family and a new job working with his father at Battlefield Rentals
in London, 23-year-old Adam
DOW seemed to have everything going
for him.
That was before the afternoon of August 5 when, while putting
up a flagpole in his yard,
DOW hit a power line.
From that brief moment, his life would be measured in days instead
of decades.
And his family would be left struggling to cope with the freak
accident that, Sunday, in a London hospital, nine days later,
took the promising young man's life.
DOW grew up in Lucan and met his future wife, Kelly
SENTON, in
Grade 2.
"They started dating in Grade 10,"
DOW's father, Stuart
DOW recalled.
"They've been soulmates ever since."
Brandt and Brody, their identical twins, joined the budding family
this year, born a few weeks early on June 2.
A textbook handyman,
DOW spent the days before the births finishing
the nursery in the home the couple bought to have more room for
the boys to grow.
"He was a very proud young father," said Carlton
NIXEY, service
manager at Battlefield Rentals.
DOW started working as a parts clerk at the company a little
more than a year ago.
"He was still learning the business, but he really caught on
fast," NIXEY said.
DOW's father said his son always had been mechanically inclined
and a hard worker.
When Adam was nine, he wrote a job resume and rode his bike up
and down the road in Lucan, placing one in each mailbox.
"One of the farmers hired him on," his father said.
"He's always been ambitious. He paid cash for his own car when
he was 15, before he could drive."
DOW was characteristically busy again August 5, erecting a flagpole
on his front lawn.
He'd fashioned the pole himself from an old pipe, attaching a
pulley to hoist the flag.
"It was for a Canadian flag. He wanted to show his patriotism,"
Stuart DOW said.
Noticing the power lines not far from where he'd laid the concrete
support for the pole,
DOW warned his wife to mind the wires.
Seconds after the words left his mouth, wind pushed the pole
Adam was hoisting into the power line.
His wife tried to pull him from the metal pipe several times.
"Every time she grabbed his shirt, she got electricity running
through her," Stuart
DOW said.
"She did manage to pull him off. If she hadn't, it would have
been much worse."
Kelly DOW, on maternity leave from Scotiabank in Stratford, suffered
minor burns to her hands.
Adam's injuries were far more serious.
The current that ran through his body had such a profound effect
that both of his arms had to be amputated.
Despite his injuries,
DOW's parents and wife remained optimistic
he'd pull through.
During the week-long ordeal, many family members slept at the
hospital, leaving only to look after the babies.
The twins, tended by relatives while their mother kept vigil
at Adam's bedside, will never get to know their proud and ambitious
father.
After enduring more than six days of operations to restore damage
caused by the shock, Adam
DOW died in the critical care unit
at London's Victoria Hospital Sunday.
While arrangements are still being made to honour
DOW's life,
Kelly's aunt has set up a trust fund to help the young widow
and her now 11-week old boys.
Anyone who'd like to contribute to the trust can donate at any
TD Canada Trust branch to account number 2940 6216389.

On Friday, October 14, 2005, in his 81st year, at the Palliative
Care Unit of York Central Hospital, Richmond Hill, Ontario. Predeceased
by his parents Thomas Byron
PERIGOE and Mary Jane Garfield (nee
SPIERS.) Survived by sister Win (Charles)
SOUTHMAYD; predeceased
by brothers Clark (Pat), Ross (Myrtle), Rae (Elsie), Del (Ardeth)
and Herb (Betty).
Beloved husband of Marjorie Alberta (née
NIXEY.) Dear father
of Thomas Arthur and Barbara Elizabeth
HOWE
(Mark.)
Proud grandfather
of Grant, Blake and Kent. Ken will be greatly missed by all who
knew him.
Born in Toronto, Ontario, Ken grew up on Alberta Avenue, attended
McMurrich Public School and Oakwood Collegiate Institute. Ken
volunteered, in 1943, for active service with the Royal Canadian
Air Force. In 1950 Ken graduated from the University of Western
Ontario (Bachelor of Arts). Always a competitive athlete, Ken
was a member of London, Ontario city championship teams: Football
- South Collegiate Institute 1941; Softball - Somerville 1948
and London Life 1952.
Ken's business career commenced with London Life at head Office
achievements included, in 1959, installation of the original
Univac system followed by conversion to System 360. His career
concluded at North American Life as Staff Counsellor helping
others. Both roles were new at the time and each required Ken's
innovative and organizational abilities resulting in many accomplishments.
No words can adequately express the thanks due to Doctor Len
KRYSTOLOVICH and the remarkable nursing team of compassionate
professionals at the Palliative Care Unit of York Central Hospital.
The family also wishes to extend their appreciation to all of
those who offered their support during this most difficult time.
A Memorial Service will be held at Marshall Funeral Home, 10366
Yonge Street, Richmond Hill, Ontario (4th traffic light north
of Major Mackenzie Drive), on Saturday, November 19, 2005, commencing
at 2: 00 p.m.; reception to follow. Private interment.

Gladys Evelyn
FRANKS was born in Proton Township, May 19, 1914

was the fifth child of Samuel and Edith
(CAMPBELL)
BATCHELOR.
Gladys is survived by one sister, Elva
DUNN,
Toronto, and two
brothers Ernie (Eunice), Collingwood and Fred (Melrose) of Orangeville.
Gladys was predeceased by her husband Osborne who was killed
in a construction accident, December, 1946, one sister Ila
FARR
and four brothers - John, Edward, Wilfred and Robert, an infant
son and a grand_son Tim
FRANKS.
Gladys'▼ children are Russell (Arlene)
of Orangeville, Marie
HODGKINSON,
Toronto,
Leslie
(Isabell) of
Dundalk, Delbert (Diane) of Orangeville, and Keith (Pat) of Dundalk.

Gladys was raised at Saugeen Junction, north of Proton Station.
Her parents were farmers, and then bought the brick yard at Proton
Station, then returned later to farming. Their children all knew
what hard work was. Gladys and her siblings attended public school
at Proton Station and as a young girl worked at home and did
housekeeping for neighbours.
Gladys and Osborne were married in 1935, farming in the south
of Proton, then to Artemesia Township and settling on the 3rd
Line of Osprey, near Hatherton. With a family of five children,
times being hard in the forties, Osborne worked with Greenwood
Construction as well as farming. It was while Osborne was away
at work that the tragic news was received of Osborne's sudden
death, December 2, 1946 in a construction accident. Gladys was
left a widow and five children to raise. Being the strong and
courageous person she was, she struggled on and with the help
of family, community and Friends, Gladys kept farming and raising
her children and teaching them skills of life. She was always
so appreciative of the help she received in those difficult years.
Gladys farmed until 1970, when she sold the farm and moved to
her newly built home in Dundalk.
In Dundalk, Gladys enjoyed her home, family gatherings, gardening,
community events, hockey and baseball, senior tours, bingo and
her growing family of grandchildren. Gladys lived in her home
in Dundalk until March 2004. With failing health she sold her
home and
in June moved to Dufferin Oaks. She enjoyed her new
experience of living at Dufferin Oaks; adjusting well and going
to events as her health allowed. She enjoyed the staff there,
loved the visits of everyone who came by. As her health failed
she was given special attention by Dufferin Oaks and Palliative
care. Gladys passed away on April 14, almost reaching the grand
age of 91.
Her funeral was held April 18 at the McMillan and Jack Funeral
Home, Dundalk with burial following at Community of Christ Cemetery.
The service was officiated by Elder John
RICHARDSON and Evangelist
Rod McLEAN, a family friend. Eulogies were delivered by Wilda
