Passionate about future of Creemore, businessman and publisher
dies
By Michael
GENNINGS, The Connection, Fri., May 5th, 2006
Gordon BADGER, a charismatic character known for his business
skills and community involvement in the Creemore area, has died.
He was 69.
BADGER died Sunday in Ireland, while on honeymoon with his wife,
Marilyn. No details regarding funeral or memorial arrangements
were available at press time.
Jeff SHEARER, publisher of On The Bay Magazine, based in Collingwood,
was a friend of
BADGER's. He said that
BADGER died in his sleep.
He noted that
BADGER and his new wife had just married about
a month ago in Florida. The visit to Ireland followed a stop
in Venice, Italy where the couple renewed their vows, he said.
SHEARER spoke highly of
BADGER in an interview with The Connection.
"He was a smart, big thinker and passionate about the community,"
SHEARER recalled.
The son of a grocery store owner turned United Church Minister,
BADGER was an accountant who for many years worked on the business
side of the publishing industry.
Among his ventures was a partnership in Comac Communications,
which published for a time Homemaker's Magazine.
BADGER also published the now defunct Creemore Star and a number
of other titles, including the Elmvale Lance, Stayner Star and
Wasaga Star. The newspapers ceased publishing in the 1990s.
His other business pursuits included real estate projects in
Canada and abroad. One of his Canadian partnerships was the Woodland
Heights residential development adjacent to Deerhurst Resort
near Huntsville.
Clearview Township mayor Fran
SAINSBURY said yesterday she was
saddened to learn of
BADGER's death.
"I liked Gordon -- he was feisty but he also had a good sense
of humour. When Gordon got involved in something he saw it through
to the end."
SAINSBURY said that she and
BADGER met in about 1998 when the
two -- the mayor was not in office -- were fighting to stop the
Creemore sewer project.
"He had some concerns, as everyone else did, about the sewer
project here. He had the same concerns I did, build it and they
will come."
BADGER also successfully lobbied the township in 2000 to make
improvements to the then proposed official plan.
Last year, he appeared at public meetings to raise concerns about
the scope of the Alliance Homes project proposed for Creemore.
SAINSBURY pointed out that before getting involved in something
BADGER was careful to research both sides of the issue, a quality
the mayor said she admired.
SAINSBURY noted that
BADGER was instrumental in helping raise
funds for the library and arena in the village. She added he
touched the community in a number of other ways.
"He was very deeply connected to the Creemore area," she said.
One▼ of the things
BADGER enjoyed doing when in the area on Friday
was gathering for lunch with Friends and acquaintances interested
in the local political scene,
SHEARER said.
"You could best describe Gordon as charming, with a bigger than
life presence, passionate and he could be gregarious in an eloquent
way. He was well-connected and an aggressive, aggressive businessman,"
he added.
Among▼ the high profile people
BADGER knew was former Ontario
Liberal premier David Peterson.
When▼ not in the Creemore area,
BADGER enjoyed staying at his
home in the Dominican Republic or at the cottage on Lake Joseph.
"I think this is a great loss to our community," said Creemore
area resident Noël
BATES.
BATES and
BADGER knew each other for a number of years and a
dined together during the Friday lunch/political discussion meetings.
"He was quite an interesting character and one of those that
make Creemore an interesting place to live. We're saddened by
his death."
BADGER, who lost his last wife, Vicky, to emphysema in June of
2002 and his daughter Martha at 36 in 2000 due to a heart seizure,
is survived by his sons Gregg, Matthew, Storey and daughter Lawrie.
