New husband killed in work accident
Man crushed days after starting job
He was trying to bring wife here
By Alejandro
BUSTOS,
Staff
Reporter
A newly married man, who was helping his wife immigrate to Canada
from India, died yesterday after being crushed in an industrial
accident in Scarborough.
The victim, identified by sources as Salim
SIDAT, 30, was killed
after being caught around 8: 15 a.m. in a clothes pressing machine
at Rio Textiles Exporters Ltd., at 1840 Ellesmere Rd. near Bellamy
Rd.
"He just started last week on the job," said Mohamed
PATEL, a
friend of SIDAT.
"Just last night (Tuesday) I thought to myself that I should
call him so I could talk with him,"
PATEL said. "Now it's too
late."
Stunned Friends gathered at the business after hearing the news.
One man, who was so distraught he couldn't speak, could only
mumble the name "
SIDAT" when asked to describe his friend. His
eyes then began to tear up before he left to compose himself.
Others said they were too devastated to talk.
Toronto police determined
SIDAT's death was the result of a mishap
after they spent the morning at the site.
The Ministry of Labour has issued a stop work order against Rio
Textiles while it investigates, spokesperson Belinda
SUTTON said.
She could not provide more information about the accident because
it's still being probed.
A person who answered the telephone at Rio Textiles said the
company had no comment.
PATEL's
Friends reported that the native of India went to an
immigration lawyer on Tuesday so he could sponsor his wife who
is still there.
The couple were married about two months ago, they added.
SIDAT's cousin is the only relative he had in Canada,
PATEL said.
PATEL reported that he spoke to
SIDAT's brother in England and
the sibling is making plans to come to Canada for the funeral.

Rafael ALFANDARY:
Jeweller to the stars
By Tabassum
SIDDIQUI,
Staff
Reporter
Rafael ALFANDARY was a man's man, but it was his affinity for
women that led to his career as a jeweller whose bold pieces
adorned flamboyant celebrities in the 1970s.
He had been around the world and back but returned to Toronto
in 2000 to die after being diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a
rare form of blood cancer.
ALFANDARY, whose chunky metal and stone jewellery was worn by
Liberace, Margaret Trudeau, Muhammad Ali and actor Lorne Greene
during the heyday of his career in Toronto in the '70s, died
Tuesday in his apartment studio at the age of 66.
"He wanted to die in Canada -- he had a great time in Toronto
and he always identified himself as Canadian," his wife Eriko
MIYAZAWA said. "When I first met him, he had a heavy Yugoslavian
accent so I was surprised to hear he was Canadian."
Born in Belgrade,
ALFANDARY and his mother were the only members
of his Jewish family to escape a concentration camp. She died
when he was 11. He emigrated to Israel when he was 20 and trained
as a mechanical engineer.
In 1970, he and his first wife relocated to Toronto because he
did not want his two young daughters, Dalia and Ruth, who would
later go on to become jewellery designers in New York and Bali,
to join the army.
While studying English at George Brown College, he stumbled into
the career that would bring him fame and fortune.
"He was always a ladies' man,"
MIYAZAWA said. "He wanted to give
a gift to his teacher, so he made some jewellery with copper
wire that his landlord had. She really loved that piece and showed
it to Friends who wanted more, and it all took off from there."
ALFANDARY could hardly keep up with the orders pouring in for
his handmade pieces. One of his first high-profile clients was
Margaret Trudeau, who wore one of his necklaces to an opening
of Parliament.
"The '70s in Canada was a time of boldness, and his jewellery
made sense in that era because everything else at the time was
dainty and all the same, but his pieces were very individual,
with a distinctive look,"
MIYAZAWA said. "One day Mr. Trudeau
recognized him in a crowd when he was giving an interview, and
he was very proud of that."
ALFANDARY soon became a media darling, known simply as Rafael.
In 1973, he was commissioned to create the crown for the Miss
Canada beauty pageant. He worked with Marilyn Brooks, designing
pieces for her clothing line. And his jewellery also appeared
as featured prizes on the popular television game show Let's
Make a Deal!
By the late 1970s,
ALFANDARY had sold more than half a million
pieces. His jewellery was sold in all the major department stores
across Canada, in airports, and six stores of his own. He had
60 employees, including a small throng of lawyers, accountants,
and advertising people.
Boxer Muhammad Ali liked the large size and heft of the pieces.
Jewellery-loving entertainer Liberace became a good friend. Earlier
this year, singer Prince wore one of
ALFANDARY's necklaces to
the People's Choice Awards.
"I first met Rafael in his glory in the '70s, when he was quite
well-known in Toronto circles," says friend Sam
BERKEL, who was
ALFANDARY's neighbour in the Manulife Centre in the '70s. The
pair renewed their Friendship more than two decades later when
ALFANDARY moved back into the highrise after his return to Toronto.
BERKEL recalls his old friend as a "man's man" who liked to gamble
and enjoyed the high life. "His jewellery was worn by a lot of
celebrities, so back then he led a very popular lifestyle --
lots of wine parties with the who's who."
In the 1980s,
ALFANDARY remarried and moved to Austin, Texas,
where he dabbled in fine jewellery before divorcing and heading
halfway around the world to an ashram in Goa, India. He and
MIYAZAWA
met at a meditation retreat in Pune, India, in 1999.
The two married in Goa in 1999 but moved back to Toronto the
following year when
ALFANDARY was diagnosed with myeloma. Doctors
told him he only had two years to live.
ALFANDARY threw himself into his work, creating new pieces of
jewellery, including a line for pets, sculpture-like clocks,
and intricate knobs for doors and drawers.
Though increasingly debilitated by the cancer,
ALFANDARY refused
to give up smoking or change his diet despite taking eight different
medications daily.
"He was getting worse and worse every day, but he was still doing
his thing,"
BERKEL said. "He had a hunger to create and design.
It gave him pleasure to see women wearing his jewellery.
ALFANDARY"
died peacefully in the Manulife Centre apartment that doubled
as his work studio."He had a full view of Toronto from his bedroom
it's a beautiful view, and his life ended there," said his
wife. "He lived his life so fully -- he was an amazing survivor
and took total charge of his own life, and Toronto gave him a
new future and broadened his horizons."
Yesterday, Friends and family gathered in a room on the 31st
floor of the Manulife Centre, looking south over the city skyline,
to remember
ALFANDARY. It was a day for intimates, not celebrities.
"He was crazy about this building,"
MIYAZAWA said.

SIDERIS,
Vasiliki▼
Koula▼
(September▼ 11, 1927 December 23, 2005)
With great sadness we announce that on December 23, 2005, Vasiliki
Koula SIDERIS succumbed to her 2 year battle against recurrent
Hodgkin's disease, at the age of 78. She was at her home, where
she was being lovingly cared for by her family and mercifully
was without pain when she gently fell into her eternal sleep.
Please know that the family is at peace with this dramatic change
in their lives and are grateful they had the opportunity to provide
for a comfortable environment during the release of her life.
Koula was born September 11th, 1927 in the small village of Avgerino,
Kozani, Greece and came to Thunder Bay, Canada exactly 55 years
ago to the day she died, to marry her loving and devoted husband
Anthony. She is survived by her husband and daughters, Joanna
and Irene and son-in-law Klaas and by her two beloved sisters
in Greece, Kostanto and Kalliroi and their respective families.
As an involved member of the Thunder Bay Greek Orthodox Community
Koula became good Friends with many of them, considering them
as part of her immediate family. She was well known to others
in Thunder Bay since she helped her husband run a Confectionery
store and Newsstand on Simpson Street, that he and his family
had for 52 years. She had the good fortune to travel extensively,
throughout Canada and the U.S.A., to Britain, many countries
of Europe, Istanbul, Egypt, a pilgrimage to the Holy Lands and
of course throughout her native country of Greece. Having moved
to Toronto 3 years ago, she was an avid explorer of all it had
to offer, particularly the malls, stores and garden centres.
Though she only had a public school education she was engaged
and well informed in the politics of Canada and internationally,
and was wellread enjoying books by Tolstoy and Alexander Solzhenitsyn.
She encouraged her daughters to be educated, appreciate the arts,
be well-read and as good a cook and hostess as herself. The family
would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at the
Oncology Department at Toronto East General Hospital, and the
palliative care staff of St. Elizabeth's...they helped make this
time a bearable one. The Visitation and prayer will be this Wednesday,
December 28th at the Heritage Funeral Centre on 50 Overlea Boulevard
at 7 p.m. The Funeral will be the following day at St. Demetrios
Greek Orthodox Church on 30 Thorncliff Park Drive at 10 a.m.
Though flowers are appreciated, the family kindly requests that
consideration be given to the Canadian Cancer Society. The family
would like to wish that everyone, especially at this time of
year, pause for a moment and enjoy what you have, and each other
because it can change in a heartbeat forever.

SIDERIS,
Vasiliki▲
Koula▲
(September▲ 11, 1927-December 23, 2005)
With great sadness we announce that on December 23, 2005, Vasiliki
Koula SIDERIS succumbed to her 2 year battle against recurrent
Hodgkin's disease, at the age of 78. She was at her home, where
she was being lovingly cared for by her family and mercifully
was without pain when she gently fell into her eternal sleep.
Please know that the family is at peace with this dramatic change
in their lives and are grateful they had the opportunity to provide
for a comfortable environment during the release of her life.
Koula was born September 11th, 1927 in the small village of Avgerino,
Kozani, Greece and came to Thunder Bay, Canada exactly 55 years
ago to the day she died, to marry her loving and devoted husband
Anthony. She is survived by her husband and daughters, Joanna
and Irene and son-in-law Klaas and by her two beloved sisters
in Greece, Kostanto and Kalliroi and their respective families.
As an involved member of the Thunder Bay Greek Orthodox Community,
Koula became good Friends with many of them, considering them
as part of her immediate family. She was well known to others
in Thunder Bay since she helped her husband run a Confectionary
store and Newsstand on Simpson Street, that he and his family
had for 52 years. She had the good fortune to travel extensively,
throughout Canada and the U.S.A., to Britain, many countries
of Europe, Istanbul, Egypt, a pilgrimage to the Holy Lands and
of course throughout her native country of Greece. Having moved
to Toronto 3 years ago, she was an avid explorer of all it had
to offer, particularly the malls, stores and garden centres.
Though she only had a public school education she was engaged
and well informed in the politics of Canada and internationally,
and was well-read enjoying books by Tolstoy and Alexander Solzhenitsyn.
She encouraged her daughters to be educated, appreciate the arts,
be well-read and as good a cook and hostess as herself. The family
would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at the
Oncology Department at Toronto East General Hospital, and the
palliative care staff of St. Elizabeth's... they helped make
this time a bearable one. The Visitation and prayer will be this
Wednesday, December 28th at the Heritage Funeral Centre on 50
Overlea Blvd. at 7 p.m. The Funeral will be the following day
at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church on 30 Thorncliff Park
Drive at 10 a.m. Though flowers are appreciated, the family kindly
requests that consideration be given to the Canadian Cancer Society.
The family would like to wish that everyone, especially at this
time of year, pause for a moment and enjoy what you have, and
each other because it can change in a heartbeat forever.

(May 10th, 1916-May 13th, 2005)
It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing
of Eric, in his 90th year, early in the morning in his home,
Southbrook Lodge, Brampton. We are thankful his passing was peaceful.
Devoted husband of the late Frances Marion

Lyn CAMPBELL
(Don) and Susan
SPRINGALL (Ron.)
Adored grandfather
of Ryan, Shelley, Kristine, Kelly, Andrew, Stephanie, Melanie,
Thomas, Victoria, Rachel, Tyler, Natalie, Owen, Alyssa and great-grandfather
to Angelina. Dad was born in England where he grew up with his
sister Jean and mother Marion. He excelled in swimming and was
a member of England's National Polo team. Dad graduated from
the prestigious St. Paul's school in London and went on to graduate
in Electrical Engineering. He signed up for the Merchant Navy
as an engineer during World War 2. Post-war, Dad immigrated to
Canada in 1950. He met and married Mom in 1952 and was fondly
known as "Goof". They welcomed 6 girls into the world and had
many fun years watching the family grow. Dad worked for Canada
Standards Association all his working career. He was dedicated
to improving standards in Canada and was a pioneer in arson investigation.
He retired in his 60's and continued to do contract work well
into his 70's. Dad instilled a love of art, fitness, cooking
and nature in all of us. He was one of the founders of the Franklin
Carmichael Art Group and imported the first fold-up kayak to
Canada. In Dad's younger years golf was his sport and travelling
his pastime. In later years, he kept his mind sharp with crossword
puzzles and bridge. He was always up for a laugh and could always
remember a joke. There was nothing Dad loved more than his family.
Dad lived a simple life and gave much to others. Dad, we adore
you and will always cherish the memories we have. A memorial
service has been planned for Friday, June 17th at York Cemetery,
160 Beecroft Rd., North York, from 1-4 p.m. (416-221-3404). Please
