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.

JOHNSTONE,
Madam
Justice
Cecilia
On April 15, 2006, Madam Justice Cecilia
JOHNSTONE of Edmonton
passed away at the age of 54 years after a lengthy battle with
cancer. She lived a life of passion and grace. Cecilia is survived
by her loving husband, John
DAY and his children, Jennifer, Jacquie
and Olivia; her mother, Anne and her lifelong family friend,
Ernie FOSS; her brother, Tim and his wife, Ruby; her uncle and
aunts and cousins. Cecilia was predeceased by her father, Lawrence
in 1962. This extraordinary woman was an accomplished teacher,
lawyer and jurist in our community. She was born, raised and
educated in Edmonton. She received her Bachelor of Arts degree
from the University of Alberta in 1973 and her
LLB from the Faculty
of Law in 1974. Cecilia articled with the then Stratton Lucas
firm, to Joseph J. Stratton (later a Justice of the Court of
Appeal), and was admitted to the Bar in 1975. She remained with
the firm, practicing in the area of wills and estates until her
appointment to the Court of Queen's Bench in 1996. She was appointed
Queen's Counsel in 1988. Cecilia was a natural teacher. She was
course head of the Wills and Estates Bar Admission Course, a
member of the Board of Directors for the Legal Education Society
of Alberta, a panelist for numerous legal education seminars,
a mentor in the Wills and Estates Program and a sessional instructor
at the Faculty of Law. Cecilia was a leader at the bar. She was
President of the Edmonton Bar Association (1988-89); the first
female President of the Alberta Branch of the Canadian Bar Association
(1990-91); a member of the American Bar Association; and the
National President of the Canadian Bar Association (1993-94).
Cecilia courageously championed the fair treatment of women in
the legal system and played a major role in the adoption of the
recommendations of the 1993 Bertha Wilson Task Force on gender
equality. To celebrate her accomplishments in promoting equality
in Canada, the Canadian Bar Association honoured Cecilia with
the Touchstone Award in 1997. She also received the Distinguished
Service Award for the Profession in 1995 from the Law Society
of Alberta and the Canadian Bar Association (Alberta Branch).
In 2000, she received the first Alumni Honour Award from the
University of Alberta, recognizing her service to the community
and her significant contribution to the legal profession. Cecilia
was devoted to the community. She served as a member of the Board
of Directors of Junior Achievement, President of the Saint Thomas
Moore Lawyers' Guild, President of the Estate Planning Council,
Chair of the Board of Directors of the Western Catholic Reporter,
Chair of the Northern Alberta Children's Hospital Foundation
and then member of the Hospital's Board of Management (now the
Stollery Children's Health Centre), Chancellor of Newman Theological
College, Chair of the Judges' Forum of the Canadian Bar Association
and as a member of various governmental advisory committees.
Cecilia was a woman well loved by a large circle of family and
Friends in her community, across the country, and beyond. Cecilia
was known for her passionate efforts on behalf of others, whether
ensuring underprivileged school children would have Christmas
or penning ground-breaking family or human rights decisions.
We are sad to lose this elegant flame of conviction and compassion.

Leslie WITT, 72: Chess 'superstar'
Received carved set from Fidel Castro
By Catherine
DUNPHY,
Obituary
Writer
Leslie WITT never talked about the time he beat Bobby Fischer
at his own game -- but others did for years afterwards.
It was 1964 and the chess world's greatest prodigy had not yet
knocked out Russian great Boris Spassky from his world domination,
but the 19-year-old was still a huge chess star and all of Montreal's
and Toronto's chess players were thrilled when he showed up for
some exhibition matches.
His first day in Montreal, Fischer was subjected to a vapid television
interview. He hated being asked questions about dating; he actually
hated talking about anything other than chess but the highlight
of the show was the one-minute chess match he played against
WITT, then the city's best player as well as a member of the
Canadian Olympic chess team.
Fischer was -- naturally -- confident. He'd already played two
exhibition games -- one in which he faced 56 people at once,
beating them all, the other where he took on 10 players with
clocks. They were better players but Fischer completed his 40
moves in under two hours, winning every game.
He could be forgiven for thinking he had another easy ride ahead.
WITT, a Hungarian émigré, was unprepossessing -- an affable,
smiling man who earned his living as a television repairman,
not particularly tall, a little on the pudgy side.
"But Les was one of the speediest players I have ever seen,"
recalled Denis
ALLAN, an assistant Crown attorney in Hamilton
who was a young chess player at the time. "Not only could he
think fast, but the speed with which he could move his hands
was incredible. Bobby was not happy about losing. He made that
clear."
Much later that night everybody got together at the Boulevard
Club, where chess was played seven days a week, and Fischer and
WITT faced off for about a dozen five-minute games.
"Bobby cleaned him out,"
ALLAN recalled. "Leslie won maybe one,
but even one game is pretty good. Bobby Fischer was a genius."
But WITT was pretty darn good as well: a four-time Montreal chess
champion, three-time winner of the Montreal Closed Championship,
winner of the Quebec Provincial Championship, the Ontario Provincial
Championship and, in 1962, the Canadian Open Chess Championship,
held that year in Ottawa, with a perfect score of 9-0.
He was a member of the Canadian chess Olympic team at the 1964
Olympiad held in Tel Aviv, the 1966 Olympiad in Havana and the
1970 event in Germany.
"I remember the Tel Aviv Olympiad because it was the first time
the Canadian team made the A group -- the top two teams," said
Zvonko VRANESIC, a University of Toronto professor who often
played WITT. In the '60s he and
WITT were vying for the country's
top spot.
"They were the two superstars," said Toronto Star chess columnist
Lawrence DAY. "It was a great rivalry."
Both men were representing Canada when Cuban leader Fidel Castro,
a big chess fan, pulled out all the stops for the Olympiad in
Havana -- putting them up in the best hotel, even opening the
event himself playing an exhibition match with the ubiquitous
Fischer. Castro presented each player with a gorgeous wooden
chess set, in a splendid carved box.
In 1969, WITT won a Brilliancy Prize in the Canadian Closed tournament.
That same year he was named an International Master, which is
one rank below Grand Master.
Laszlo WITT was born in Budapest, where chess is respected and
popular, and the best chess players accorded the accolades reserved
for hockey players in North America. He began playing the game
at age 8 and tournaments when 15. By 17, he was the premier player
for the Hungarian junior national team.
He was in Vienna for a tournament during the three weeks in October
and November of 1956 of the Hungarian Revolution. His wife, Viola,
and 4½-year-old daughter, Sylvia, had not been permitted to accompany
him to the tournament. "We were collateral," said Sylvia
SANKEY,
now a stage manager who lives in Winnipeg.
Jews who had pretended to be Christians since the war when most
of the family's male relatives -- including
WITT's father --
were taken to Auschwitz concentration camp where they perished,
they quickly decided to flee the country. Mother and daughter
crossed the border to Austria to the sounds of Russians shooting
on one side and Germans on the other. For three weeks they had
hid out in farmhouses and fields.
They were taken to refugee camp outside Vienna where they were
eventually reunited with
WITT.
They left for Italy and the ocean
voyage to Halifax, where one of
WITT's six sisters lived, moving
to Montreal in 1957.
They lived in a walk-up on the Main in the heart of the émigré
chess-playing community.
SANKEY remembers them always sitting at her parents' kitchen
table playing chess with her father, all men, all in their 20s
and 30s, slapping the button on the top of the clocks.
She and her mother never did really learn to play the game, but
SANKEY grasped quickly that she had to be "quiet, quiet, quiet"
so her father and his Friends could play. "I would read or go
and watch television in the other room. It was just a part of
life, coming home to see who ever happened to be in the kitchen
playing chess with daddy. It was the norm," she said.
And yet by the time the family all moved to Toronto in the late
'70s, WITT had all but retreated from the chess scene. In Toronto
and Montreal it was no longer dominated by the émigré master
a new generation of home-grown talent had emerged under their
tutelage.
Current top-rated Canadian Kevin
SPRAGGETT was moving up fast.
"He beat WITT in 1979 for the Montreal championship and that
was the changing of the guard," said
DAY.
WITT was a very private man who simply slipped out of the world
of chess. Few questioned it -- chess had become an increasingly
young person's game.
"When you've played the game at such a high level, climbing down
is difficult,"
VRANESIC said. "People just quit instead. I think
that's what probably happened in this case."
WITT took up painting and backgammon in the '80s and in the last
few years frequently went to Casino Rama for poker games.
Before he died at 72 on December 27, his daughter found his easel
and paints in the Scarborough townhouse he had shared with a
young couple -- as well as the chess set from Havana.
"You know it was kind of sad," said
ALLAN, the lawyer. "
WITT's
death was mentioned on an international chess chat room and it
got no comments. I guess people just don't know him anymore."
