BOYD, Minnie Marian (née SWANTON)
Minnie Marian was born on April 15, 1921 to Emily and William SWANTON who resided on the East Back Line, Markdale. She was the younger sister to her brother George who was five years her senior. The four were a tight knit farming family who grew up with strong values and the hearty Grey county work ethic.
Minnie finished high school and then went off to teacher's college. She began her teaching career in a one room schoolhouse in Ceylon with grades one through eight; quite a challenge for a newly graduated young teacher. When she went to Toronto to teach, she tackled this job with determination and passion and enjoyed the many opportunities it presented.
It was during this time that she met her soul mate for life local Flesherton boy, George BOYD. They were married in July 1944 with the entire Boyd and Swanton family in attendance. George and Minnie had three children, Brenda, Randy and Wendy. Minnie was devoted to her family. Whether as a homemaker to a young family or as the accountant/receptionist at the family business, Boyd Bros. Motors, Minnie excelled. She also made time for many pursuits including sewing, painting and cooking. The family enjoyed great love and support from each other.
Minnie and George had a great enthusiasm for life. They both enjoyed impromptu parties with Friends and family and Minnie was always ready with lots of food and stories to tell. They had many great adventures through the family trips around the world and even day trips in the area. Minnie loved to dance and it was usually George and Minnie who were first up to "cut a rug" on the dance floor. George was the love of her life and the two were inseparable until almost three years ago when George passed away. Although she suffered greatly from heart-break and arthritis in the final years, Minnie never let the pain dampen her positive spirit.
The service celebrating Minnie's life took place on Wednesday, February 15 at the Fawcett Funeral Home in Flesherton. Minnie's daughter-in-law, Kim BOYD composed and delivered a wonderful tribute to Minnie. A second loving tribute was written by her daughter, Wendy and read by Reverend Martin GARNISS. The Boyd family appreciated the beautiful music of David FRIES, the religious message of Reverend Martin GARNISS and the excellent lunch served by the ladies of Flesherton's Saint John's United Church. Thanks are also extended to the pallbearers Don BRODIE, Jack DAVIS, Kevin DAY, Tyler DAY, Bob EDWARDS and Jim WILLIAMS.
Relatives and Friends will remember Minnie's generosity, kind spirit and keen sense of humour. She will be greatly missed by her children, Brenda, Randy and Wendy, her daughter-in-law Kim, her son-in-law Kevin, her six grandchildren, Lindsay, Ferris, Kelsey, Melanie, Tyler and Samantha and her loving relatives and Friends.
The Boyd family give thanks for Minnie's life and are comforted to know that she will once again be with her one true love, George. Minnie's spirit will remain in the family's hearts and minds forever.

My darling wife, Carolyn, died on Monday, May 1, 2006 at St. Joseph's Health Centre, Toronto after a courageous fight with cancer. Beloved wife of David Leonard REA. Loving mother to Katy REA, Patrick REA (Manuela SANTOS) and John REA (Bridget HOURIHAN.) Eternally proud "Nanna" to David Francis REA. Dear sister of Michael STARR (Donna) and Martha DAVIS (Alfred) and sister-in-law of Carolyn MARTIN (Henry) and Dianne SSAINTUIS. Daughter of the late Nelles and Catherine Margaret (FROST) STARR. Cherished Auntie to 10 nieces and nephews. Carolyn's life was marked by her deep devotion to her homelife. Her husband of 45 years, her children and grandchild were the world to her. Her Friends, and there were many, are a testament to her steady, loyal and loving character. She played a mean hand of bridge. She revelled in a fresh picked basket of blueberries and noodling in the lake. Comfort was a cat on her lap. Escapism was equally a trashy spy novel or a night of theatre. She knew all the great swing dance steps and moved with grace. She found something in common with even the most uncommon people. Her strength was boundless and when life struck her youngest down with a grave illness, she suited up for battle and crusaded with one hand while stroking his brow to ally his fears with the other. Her blue eyes could charm even the hardest of hearts. Her home was her castle; her cottage her sanctuary. We will miss you very much. A private family service was held at the Turner and Porter, Yorke Chapel, Toronto, Thursday, May 4, 2006. A service to celebrate Carolyn's life will be held on Thursday, May 11, 2006 at The Old Mill, 21 Old Mill Road, Toronto. Service at 11: 30 a.m. with reception to follow.

Tom McEWAN, Educator And Entrepreneur (1924-2006)
As a young businessman, he helped to merge three small colleges and create what is today the University of Guelph
By F.F. Langan, Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S11
Toronto -- People think of the University of Guelph as the place that produced John Kenneth Galbraith. But of course he never went there. He graduated from the Ontario Agriculture College in 1932, 32 years before the University of Guelph was founded by the likes of Tom McEWAN.
Along with a number of other key players, Mr. McEWAN worked to bring together the three colleges that formed the University of Guelph: the Ontario Agriculture College, the Macdonald Institute and the Ontario Veterinary College. He was the first chairman of the board of the University, but before that, he had been one of the people overseeing the three colleges that were at the core of the new university.
"He was a visionary. Around 1960 he said we have the basis of a university in Guelph, and he and other people worked hard to make it happen," says Bill WINEGARD, who was hired by Mr. McEWAN as president of the University of Guelph in 1967. "They hired the best people, including someone from Harvard, to make sure they got the best physical plant. He got a lot done playing the role of the tough businessman, though I found underneath he was a cream puff."
The expansion of universities in Ontario was an idea whose time had come. It was pushed by John ROBARTS, then the premier of Ontario, and his education minister Bill DAVIS. York, Brock, Laurentian and others were all founded in this period.
"Tom was fundamental in setting up the University of Guelph, and transforming it from the three founding colleges," said Alastair SUMMERLEE, the current president of the University of Guelph. "At the time he was a young businessman in his late thirties. He fought to get the property from the provincial government."
There were less than 1,000 students when Guelph opened in 1964. Today there are 20,000 regular students and 50,000 in so-called distance learning.
Tom McEWAN was born in Scotland, not the country but the hamlet in southwestern Ontario. His father was a farmer and he went to a one-room school house and then to high school at Delta Collegiate in Hamilton. Before he could finish high school he joined the Royal Canadian Air Force, and qualified as a pilot.
Flying Officer McEWAN was assigned to Coastal Command, whose main job was to patrol Canada's coastline looking for submarines. The flights were long, often in rough weather, and almost always at lower altitudes where the ride was bumpier. Flights could last 12 hours. The Royal Canadian Air Force had seven squadrons of planes flying long-range patrols, many of them older bombers such as the Anson and the Hudson, small aircraft made obsolete by wartime aeronautical advances offered by four-engined Lancasters and Liberators.
After the war, Mr. McEWAN went to a special school set up for veterans who needed to finish high school, but who would be humiliated returning to a regular classroom. It was called the Veterans Rehabilitation School.
He then went to university at Queen's where many of his classmates were veterans, their education paid for by the federal government. He recalled that single veterans received a living allowance of $60 a month, married veterans $90. He was president of the graduating Arts class at Queen's in 1950.
His first job was as a sales representative for Union Carbide Canada and he stayed in that type of business all his life. He later moved to a firm called Sterling Rubber, where he became one of the owners and eventually president. The company manufactured specialty medical products such as syringes and medical gloves.
Later, the firm was sold to an American company, Beckton Dickinson, and he stayed on for a while as president of the Canadian division. In the early 1960's he was elected a school trustee in Guelph and then was head of the Board of Regents of the Federated Colleges, the three institutions that made up the University.
One of the problems with building a university in a small town such as Guelph was there was no place to house the students. While others set about planning and organizing the academic life of the new university, Mr. McEWAN dealt with the physical side of things. He put together a 1,000-acre campus, with student residences in the centre and on the edges of the university.
"At one time Guelph had the highest residential capacity of any university in the province, and it is still very high," said Mr. WINEGARD. " Tom even bought several acres around the edge of the campus and donated the land to the university."
Dr. Mordechai ROZANSKI, who was president of the University of Guelph from 1993 to 2003, also described Mr. McEWAN as forward thinking.
"Tom was a central player in the conception and formation of the university," Doctor Rozanski told the Guelph Mercury. "I have never seen anybody so dedicated to our successor generations."
He was "a founding father of the university in 1964 and a proponent of public education in general," added Doctor ROZANSKI, whose academic life began at McGill University in Montreal, but who is now president of Rider University in N.J.
By all accounts, Mr. McEWAN had not realized the scope of the job he had taken on when he agreed to join the university's board of governors. "As about the youngest and poorest member of the board of governors, I expected to be able to sit back and learn from the older and much wiser members," he wrote in papers found in the university archives. "I was shocked when they elected me chair."
The Guelph Mercury recently ran an editorial praising Mr. McEWAN's work in leaving a campus plan that has survived. " McEWAN helped to shape what the school is today, helping to wrote the long-term development plan that continues to determine some of the school's priorities to this day -- academic buildings situated to allow pedestrian traffic and ensuring the campus retains its residential nature."
During his time at the university he continued his business life, and ran a firm called Howmet of Canada. In the 1970's he was chairman of a government committee to study costs in education in Ontario. Later, he served on the board of the Workmen's Compensation Board.
Along with education, Mr. McEWAN was heavily involved in charities for disabled children. He was president of the Ontario Society for Crippled Children.
His son Ian remembered his father had few hobbies outside work, though he was a keen golfer and member of the Mississauga Golf Club. He also loved the music of the Second World War, especially the big bands of Tommy Dorsey and Glenn Miller.
Thomas Arthur McEWAN was born in Scotland, Ontario, on April 5, 1924. He died suddenly in Guelph, Ontario, on May 13, 2006. He was 82. He is survived by his wife Bessie and his children, Ian and Melanie.

DAVIS, Rae▼ McDonough
Passed away at home on Saturday, June 10, at 5: 00 p.m., in the company of her children. She was seventy-eight. Diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer four years ago, she was completely at peace with her courageous decision to forego anything but palliative care, which was managed with compassion and professionalism by the Temmy Latner Center for Palliative Care at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto. A graduate of Wellesley College (1949) and Columbia University (M.A. 1952), she moved to Canada with her husband John in 1957 and became a Canadian citizen in 1979. Rae was an extraordinary person - a student of English and American literature, a great reader (and sometime writer) of contemporary poetry, and a lover of painting, architecture, and gardens. She was a pioneering artist in Canada in several domains, ranging from experimental theater and dance to performance art to film and video to digital media. Her career spanned the late 1950s (she directed Samuel Beckett's "Act Without Words I" in 1959) to the present. A retrospective of her art and performance work was mounted at the Art Gallery of Windsor in 2001 and a voluminous archive of material relating to her career was accepted by Library and Archives Canada in 2006. Rae was beloved by her brother David McDONOUGH (of Bagni di Lucca, Italy;) half-sister Patricia REED (of New Providence, New Jersey;) late husband John Whitney DAVIS (who died in 1998;) son Whitney Matthew DAVIS (of Berkeley, California) and daughter Martha Moore DAVIS (partner of Scott WHITTINGTON of Toronto, Ontario;) granddaughter Molly Moore Davis WHITTINGTON (age six); and her many Friends and colleagues in Toronto and elsewhere. In lieu of flowers, donations in Rae's name can be made to Harborfront Centre's children's and dance programming, c/o Jolaine FRIZZELL, 235 Queen's Quay West, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2G8. A memorial service for Rae will be held on Saturday, June 17, at 4 p.m. at the Toronto Necropolis chapel.

DAVIS, Virginia Rae▲ (née McDONOUGH)
By Barbara STERNBERG, Page A22
Performance artist, wife, mother. Born August 12, 1927, in Plainfield, N.J. Died June 10 in Toronto of breast cancer, aged 78.
Rae DAVIS was a careful person -- that is, she did things with care. Whether setting the table or deciding the order and timing of shots for a video, Rae DAVIS gave situations their due. She prepared. She performed with forethought, without rushing herself or the activity at hand. She did things well and thoughtfully. Which is not to say there wasn't time and room for play. On the contrary, Rae DAVIS came alive acting out. She trusted in serendipity there was room for the unplanned and unexpected in her work (her performance-art works often had space for improvisations by the participant performers; the method of writing, for example, in her last performance piece, Cataract, was to write in her studio daily whatever came and to keep it, no deletions or revisions, come what may). Ideas came to her in dreams or in a flash. She trusted her intuition, but would also throw out an idea if it didn't hold up to later scrutiny.
Virginia Rae McDONOUGH was born in Plainfield, New Jersey in 1927. She married John DAVIS and moved with him to London, Ontario, in 1957 where he taught philosophy at the University of Western Ontario; they raised two children, Martha and Whitney. After getting her degrees in English from Wellesley College and Columbia, Rae started her career as a theatre director in London. She found that even though she was directing challenging works by Beckett, Ionesco and other modern playwrights, the more inclusive world backstage attracted her and provided more scope for her imagination. She "broke out of the play" and began creating her own works in the form now known as Performance, beginning with Simple Activities in 1963. She is now regarded as a woman pioneer in the field of performance art.
In the early years, her performance work in London was large-scale with many performers, architectural constructions and contained extensive writings by DAVIS herself. She also contributed in important ways to the cultural life in London through her involvement in the artist-run centre, Forest City Gallery, and by writing on local artists such as Greg Curnoe for Arts Canada. After moving to Toronto in 1987, her work shifted to encompass installation, video and new media components. Her 40-year career was celebrated with a retrospective exhibition, Unfoldings, at the Art Gallery of Windsor in 2001, which included an extensive catalogue about her life and work. Her entire oeuvre was accepted by Library and Archives Canada, in Ottawa, in May of this year.
Rae DAVIS had a lively interest in life. Lots caught her eye and attention and fed her art: the latest scientific advances and technology, Byrd's arctic explorations, a worn pair of work boots, miniature chairs, and the work of other artists, architects, writers and poets. Throughout her life she collected artwork by contemporary Canadian artists and was an avid reader.
Rae organized her dying days with the focused attention and care she would give a performance work: researching the illness and prognosis, learning what services were available to her, making her choices based on the research and her decided goals, and organizing the participating palliative care workers to meet these goals. We, her colleagues, Friends and family, were spared responsibility for these decisions. We learned much from Rae's dying as we had learned from her example throughout her life: her calm acceptance of this ultimate inevitability, the active role she took in her care, the dignity she maintained even as she accepted with grace and appreciative smiles the helping hands of others, her clear-sightedness and bravery.
As Rae so often put it: "Your own two feet, that's what you've got."
Barbara STERNBERG is a friend of Rae DAVIS.

MOORE, Rev. A. George, B.A., B.D., S.T.M., Doctoris Divinitatis (honoris causa)
Died in the 93rd year of his life, in the 64th year of his ministry and in the 60th year of his marriage. Until the last possible moment, and even beyond, George has never failed, never stopped contributing to the common good and never diminished in his adoration for Jean, his wife and his partner in all things. In the ministry, George and Jean have served their United Church congregations with energy, devotion and their particular ability to smooth troubles and to bring people together. George's charges have included Grand Falls and Musgravetown in Newfoundland, Stanbridge East, St. Mungo's and Granby in Quebec, St. Luke's, Saint_James, Erskine-and-American in Montreal and Saint_John's in Pointe-Claire. Beyond the parish, George's ministry included those who were not accepted elsewhere; his responsibilities included Home Missions and the Chair of the Montreal Presbytery. At home, George's love has embraced his extended family, grown from Jean and sons David (Janet), and John (Keisha), to include grandchildren Linda (Drew), Amber, Nick, as well as Niasha and now his beautiful great-granddaughter Denver. Born in 1913 on July 19th in Safe Harbour, Newfoundland, sixth child of Henry MOORE and Elsie DAVIS, George grasped the opportunities life brought him, as teacher in his home town, as divinity student at McGill University, as chaplain with Captain's commission in the Canadian Army and as ordained minister with a full career. His achievement in life has been known to every parishioner, as well as to the University, which honoured him with the Doctorate Degree, and to the Church, which called him back three times after retirement to minister to congregations in need. Above all, few of us have given and received so much love and affection. George died on March 15th, 2006, at the Ottawa Civic Hospital, despite the best of care. A private funeral is being held in Ottawa. George's memorial service is to be held at Saint_John's United Church, 98 Aurora Avenue, Pointe-Claire, Quebec, on Saturday, May 6th at 2: 00 p.m. Memorial donations may be made to Saint_John's United Church, 514-697-6459.
