HANSFORD, April▼ Lea▼
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of April Lea HANSFORD on July 1st, 2006 at the age of 32. April succumbed to cancer after a lengthy four-year battle that saw her inspire many others by her unwavering bravery and relentless will to live. She passed away peacefully at Alexandra Hospital in Ingersoll with her family by her side. She is survived by her parents John (Skip) and Amy HANSFORD of Ingersoll, Ontario and her brother Darren HANSFORD of Toronto. Also, by her long time partner and lifetime friend, Bradford CLIFFORD and the entire Clifford family of Ingersoll who loved her so deeply. Also survived by aunts, uncles, cousins and Friends. April worked in Toronto as a Market Research Analyst for iFOP-CMR. She fought hard to continue her career up until the end. Her many talents, drive and irresistible nature made her a joy to work with and be around. She faced many obstacles in her life but would always triumph in the face of adversity. Her thoughtfulness, selfless nature and heart of gold would always see her put others interests before her own no matter what the cost. She often worried more about how her own illness might affect others than herself. April loved to travel and spend time with her many devoted Friends and colleagues. She will be missed dearly and never forgotten by those who were lucky enough to know her. We All love you April. A Memorial service will be held for April at the McBeath-Dynes Funeral Home, 246 Thames St. S., Ingersoll on Saturday, July 8, 2006 at 1: 00 p.m.

HANSON, Ida
After a long and full life, Ida died peacefully on 21 July at age 101. Although a proud Canadian, she never turned her back on her Yorkshire upbringing, which gave her the esprit to enjoy the good times and the gumption to overcome all the rough patches that attend such a life, including the death of her devoted husband Eddie. Her love, humour and interest in nature have deeply enriched the lives of her daughter, Dorothy, her sons, John and Hugh, their partners Barry, Claire and Marion, and her grandchildren Peter, Kirsten and Anna. She will be lovingly remembered by her great grandchildren Alexandra, Maude, Aidan and Julianna. We are all grateful for the care given her over her last decade by the splendid staff of the senior's residence at 4 Teddington Park Avenue. Anyone wanting to give a donation in Ida's memory might consider the Federation of Ontario Naturalists, of which she was an Honorary Life Member, and St. Timothy's Anglican Church, of which she was a member for nearly seventy years.

HANTON o@ca.on.york_county.toronto.globe_and_mail 2006-12-21 published
PROUDFOOT, Michael John (March 27, 1967-December 17, 2006)
In Edmonton, from complications following an unsuccessful heart transplant, Michael, beloved husband of Joan and dearly loved father of Madeline and Spencer, ended his lengthy and uncomplaining battle with his failing heart. Michael also leaves to mourn parents Sandra and John, brother Clifford (Karen), nephews Alec and Bruce parents-in-law Douglas and June HANTON, brothers-in-law David (Nicky) children David and Euan; Timothy (Donna) children Tynan, Callum and Rhonan; Magnus (Daralee) daughter Ailsa; Dhugal (fiancée Leslie); many aunts, uncles and cousins. Born in Winnipeg, Michael attended Montrose, River Heights and Kelvin Schools, where he established himself as a musician, actor and singer. Following graduation from the University of Manitoba with a B.Comm. (Hon), B.Mus (voice), and B.Ed. (Elem. and Choral), he began a career in teaching and developing wonderful skills in choral leadership. As well, he performed with the Winnipeg Singers for several years and appeared with Canzona, and was a church soloist for over 10 years. He also performed with Rainbow Stage, the U of M Opera Workshop, The University Singers and Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's Hymn Sing. His teaching career included five years in Saint_James Assiniboia School Division, and latterly Elementary Music Specialist at Saint_John's Ravenscourt School. He was particularly proud of the choirs he led in the Pembina Trails School Division. Michael was a devoted family man who worked with Joan to surround Madeline and Spencer with love and a wide variety of activities. They enjoyed travel and introduced the children to cultural, athletic and musical events and opportunities. All the family reflect the same joie de vivre, and Michael's life was full of laughter. His attention to detail for parties, invitations and decorations was legendary. On top of this he was an adventurous gourmet cook always trying new creations on his delighted Friends. Michael enjoyed a close and deep relationship with his parents, who raised him to believe he could do anything he set his mind to. This approach showed throughout his professional and personal life. His connection with the family cottage at Falcon Lake was also important, and he loved his time there. Only a few months ago he captained his own boat and worked to get Madeline up on water skis. He never gave in to increasing problems with heart function. Even these specific details do not capture the essence of Michael's engaging personality and exceptional ability to draw beautiful music from young singers. His sense of humour and mischief might not always have been appreciated by his teachers, but it added a delightful element to his choral style. His boys and young men's choirs especially rose to great heights under his leadership. He had the ability to motivate, educate and inspire in a way that brought out the best in his students. Michael approached life with flair and energy, using his many talents with enduring panache and laughter. With his wife Joan, he would light up a room, liven any party, enhance a kitchen, and carry it all off with apparent ease. For the last seven years, Michael fought with a rare and ultimately relentless heart disease. Few people knew of this, and he faced every day with the possibility of lacking the physical energy to continue. When he was finally placed on the waiting list for a new heart it was with the hope that this would renew his life and be the ultimate Christmas gift. Sadly, the procedure, for complex reasons, did not offer this, and his life ended peacefully in Edmonton's University of Alberta Hospital. Michael's legacy includes a remarkably wide circle of Friends who will always cherish his sometimes acerbic wit, his warmth and exuberance. As well, there are hundreds of young people who have been exposed to the joy of choral singing, and this gift from Michael will resonate on through the generations. In time, his young children will know that their father was a special man who gave much to the world in his too short life. It is a remarkable gift to share music, and both Michael and Joan have filled their lives proving that statement. He will be missed, but we will all sing on. A memorial service will be held at Westminster United Church, N.W. Maryland at Westminster, at 1: 00 p.m. Thursday December 21, 2006. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation. 'When words fail, music speaks.' - Hans Christian Anderson
