ROBB,
Christopher
Michael -- Dispatch
By Scott DEVEAU,
Page▼ M5
You knew it was getting late in the evening when Uncle Chris
broke into the classic drinking tunes, especially The Black Velvet
Band. Just like the subject of the song, the man's eyes "shone
like diamonds."
His twinkle -- and his trademark handlebar mustache -- defined
a family man: no children of his own, but enough nieces, nephews
and barn cats around that he was never at a loss for someone
or something to dote upon.
Christopher Michael
ROBB was born in Montreal on September 16,
1944, settling in Toronto late in his teens and working on Bay
Street before being recruited by International Business Machines
Corporation. He met his wife and best friend, Jennifer, in the
business quarter when he was 20.
During his time with International Business Machines Corporation,
he watched the computer evolve from an ungainly machine to the
sleek and indispensable presence it is today. What truly defined
Mr. ROBB, however, was life on his farm near Port Hope, sailing
on Canal Lake and above all his love for his family.
Whether it was Christmas or Thanksgiving, or one of the spa weekends
enjoyed by the women in his family, Mr.
ROBB pampered his guests
with gourmet dinners featuring vegetables from his garden. "For
the guys, he'd come up to the family cottage and we'd sit around
the fire and drink," recalls Mark
CARMICHAEL, his nephew. "There
was a love of life there that was infectious."
In the eight months prior to his death, Mr.
ROBB fought throat
cancer, succumbing at the age of 61 on February 15, 2006. No
one remembers him ever complaining.
Though he lost his voice near the end, there's no doubt in anyone's
mind that the echo of The Black Velvet Band will continue to
be heard wherever his family is found.

MOORE,
Jean
Gowans -- Dispatch:
By Scott DEVEAU,
Page▲ M4
Jean MOORE's life as a singer began on a dare.
After a friend challenged her to audition at the Royal Conservatory
in 1942, she was immediately placed in the Toronto Mendelssohn
Choir, beginning a long career with the Royal Conservatory Opera
School of Toronto, before becoming a founding member of the Canadian
Opera Company.
Ms. MOORE, who also formed the St. Clement's School Alumni Association,
was the "original multitasker," according to her daughter Barbara
MOORE.
"She walked so fast I couldn't even keep up with her as an adult,
and I ran track," Barbara said.
Ms. MOORE, married to Ronald
MOORE, ended her music career in
the late 1960s, as she juggled four musically active children.
But she also became a surrogate mother and mentor to many. In
her younger years, she was even known to dust off a forlorn-looking
11-year-old Glenn Gould from the halls of the Conservatory to
make sure he had had his lunch.
Ms. MOORE died at the age of 85 on May 4 from leukemia. A memorial
service with performances by tenor Mark DuBois, members of the
Cleveland Orchestra, and her own family will be held in June.

Margaret▼
FLEMING/FLEMMING.
From▼ the age of
18, Elaine lived with family Friends in Oshawa and worked at
General▼
Motors▼ until her marriage to Julius
MINACS in 1965. On
March 12, 1973, Elaine and Julius welcomed daughter Andrea Elaine
to the family. In September 1981, after Andrea started school,
Elaine founded her own company, which was housed in the original
Minacs home at 65 Albert Street in Oshawa. Originally a temporary
staffing company, Minacs Worldwide, has enjoyed 25 years of continuous
growth and now employs approximately 5,000 people, with offices
in 20 locations in Canada, the United States, and Europe. Elaine
transformed her company into an internationally-recognized organization
that provides high-value B.P.O. solutions centered on three core
areas of service: contact centres, integrated market services,
and back office administration. In 1999, she took the company
from a privately-held corporation reporting revenues of $35.9 million
in 1998, to a publicly-traded company
(TSX:
MXW) with reported
revenues of $290.5 million in 2005. Over the years, Elaine's
entrepreneurial skills have been nationally recognized at both
the corporate and personal levels. Minacs has received numerous
awards for its industry leadership and business success. Among
these are: General Motors 2002 Supplier of the Year; Young Women's
Christian Association of Greater Toronto 2002 Woman of Distinction
for Entrepreneurship; Ernst and Young 2001 Entrepreneur of the
Year; Canadian Professional Sales Association Hall of Fame 2001
Diamond Award for commitment, community involvement and generous
charitable contributions; and 1993 Canadian Woman Entrepreneur
of the Year for Quality. A strong supporter of children's charities,
she was a past member of the Board of Directors of Kids' Help
Phone. She has also been the recipient of a number of business
excellence awards from the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce and the
Ajax-Pickering Board of Trade. Elaine was best known for her
unfaltering spirit and entrepreneurial drive. She identified
new markets where the company could grow and succeed. She faced
challenges head-on and welcomed new opportunities to take Minacs
into uncharted territory. Resting at the Armstrong Funeral Home,
124 King Street East, Oshawa 905-433-4711, with visitation on
Monday, May 22nd and Tuesday, May 23rd from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m.

18, Elaine lived with family Friends in Oshawa and worked at
General▲
Motors▲ until her marriage to Julius
MINACS in 1965. On
March 12, 1973, Elaine and Julius welcomed daughter Andrea Elaine
to the family. In September 1981, after Andrea started school,
Elaine founded her own company, which was housed in the original
Minacs home at 65 Albert Street in Oshawa. Originally a temporary
staffing company, Minacs Worldwide, has enjoyed 25 years of continuous
growth and now employs approximately 5,000 people, with offices
in 20 locations in Canada, the United States, and Europe. Elaine
transformed her company into an internationally-recognized organization
that provides high-value B.P.O. solutions centered on three core
areas of service: contact centres, integrated market services,
and back office administration. In 1999, she took the company
from a privately-held corporation reporting revenues of $35.9 million
in 1998, to a publicly-traded company
(TSX:
MXW) with reported
revenues of $290.5 million in 2005. Over the years, Elaine's
entrepreneurial skills have been nationally recognized at both
the corporate and personal levels. Minacs has received numerous
awards for its industry leadership and business success. Among
these are: General Motors 2002 Supplier of the Year; Young Women's
Christian Association of Greater Toronto 2002 Woman of Distinction
for Entrepreneurship; Ernst and Young 2001 Entrepreneur of the
Year; Canadian Professional Sales Association Hall of Fame 2001
Diamond Award for commitment, community involvement and generous
charitable contributions; and 1993 Canadian Woman Entrepreneur
of the Year for Quality. A strong supporter of children's charities,
she was a past member of the Board of Directors of Kids' Help
Phone. She has also been the recipient of a number of business
excellence awards from the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce and the
Ajax-Pickering Board of Trade. Elaine was best known for her
unfaltering spirit and entrepreneurial drive. She identified
new markets where the company could grow and succeed. She faced
challenges head-on and welcomed new opportunities to take Minacs
into uncharted territory. Resting at the Armstrong Funeral Home,
124 King Street East, Oshawa 905-433-4711, with visitation on
Monday, May 22nd and Tuesday, May 23rd from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m.
