LECHTZIER, Merton Richard
The only son of Samuel and Susan was born on November 12, 1925 in Minneapolis and lived briefly there and in Winnipeg before finally settling in Vancouver in 1927. Sam was one of 11 children of Abraham and Doba LECHTZIER who immigrated to Winnipeg from Russia in 1882. Rhoda, their eldest daughter, was the first surviving Jewish child to be born in Western Canada. Merton died at home on December 7, 2006. He was 81. Merton attended Point Grey, Magee high schools and University of British Columbia where he received a B.Com. Upon graduation, Merton joined his father at the family business, LaSalle Recreations, remaining there until his father's death in 1972. During the 30s, 40s and 50s, LaSalle outfitted theatres with chairs and carpet, and was a very popular social spot in Vancouver's early history. It housed on five floors 10 pin bowling (then the largest of its kind in North America), the only indoor golf course in the country, and a pool hall incorporated within The Young Italian Men's Club. Merton later converted LaSalle into a successful carpeting and interior decorating business. He was a leader in his field for many years. Merton had lifelong sartorial interests. He loved fashion and considered himself an authority on good taste and grooming. To him, the only thing better than the latest fashion was the same thing at half price. Away from the office 'Mert' was a consummate competitor and athlete. He played lacrosse and later basketball for University of British Columbia and had a life long passion for tennis (he was the longest serving member of the Vancouver Lawn Tennis Club). He loved playing cards and was a frequent visitor to Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas in its heyday in the 70's. The Western world has also lost one of the best crib players in his passing which he pursed with great verve. Mert was also an enthusiastic investor and speculator enjoyed following the stock market. He was one of Howe Street's earliest followers and rode the waves though many cycles. Beyond everything else, however, Merton was a family man, very private and happiest at home and among the familiar, a creature of routine and tradition, and was absolutely and unequivocally devoted to his family and particularly his dear wife of 53 years, Bette (née HEARD,) whom he married on August 12, 1953. They soon moved to Shaughnessy where they remained under the same roof for over 40 years. Mert and Beebz enjoyed hosting parties and travelling to exotic locales with their many close life long Friends. Merton was intelligent, compassionate, opinionated, argumentative, generous, a lousy driver (but "the world's best parker"), incredibly stubborn, forever impatient and possessed a wicked sense of humour. Above all else, he was a loving husband, father and grandfather. In 2000, when his dear Bette was afflicted with dementia, Merton totally and absolutely devoted his entire existence to Bette's welfare, forsaking everything to that cause. While it is always a tragedy to lose a father and a friend, it is particularly difficult to lose Dad at Christmas as he eagerly anticipated the occasion and kept the spirit of the season throughout the year. He will be very sadly missed and like all special things in life, was unique and irreplaceable. Merton is survived by his beloved wife Bette, his three children; Matthew of London, England, Paul (Jennifer DOLMAN) of Toronto, and Sally (Jeffrey RUTLEDGE) of Vancouver, and six grandchildren; Sam, Adam and Emma RUTLEDGE and Harris, Sasha and Abby LECHTZIER, as well as his sister Donna KORENS of MacLean, Virginia. The family thanks the Pacific Spirit Community Health Centre and particularly Sally Hill who walked on water in Dad's eyes and whose care and concern were so appreciated. In addition, we thank Helen Combs for her loving attention to both our parents over the last few years. Donations to the Canadian Cancer or Alzheimer Societies would be appreciated.

Folk fest director hanging it up
Summerfolk artistic director won't return after this summer
By Bill HENRY
A search begins this week for the next Summerfolk artistic director.
Liz HARVEY- FOULDS, heading into her second festival this summer, has told the Georgian Bay Folk Society board she won't apply to renew her two-year contract.
Trying to program the music festival from her home near Thunder Bay has been frustrating and difficult while teaching high school full-time, HARVEY- FOULDS said in an interview Saturday.
When she took over the part-time contract position in the fall of 2004 from Don BIRD, who resigned after a dispute with the board, HARVEY- FOULDS was teaching part-time and planned to relocate to Owen Sound and teach school here. She said she gave that idea up after realizing she would lose seniority and have no job security.
“I've agonized and tossed and turned over this,” HARVEY- FOULDS said as folk society volunteers set up for the annual Last Chance Saloon concert and competitive audition for a main stage slot this summer.
HARVEY- FOULDS said the working relationship with the board has been “terrific,” there's no controversy around her departure and she regrets leaving after such a short time.
Folk society president Pam HEARN- ERB said the board appreciated HARVEY- FOULDS' early notice, which came weeks ago but was to be made public in a media release today. No public announcement was to be made Saturday during the Last Chance Saloon, which also serves as a volunteer recognition party.
“I think Liz has been good for us. She had big shoes to fill and we think she filled them well,” HEARN- ERB said.
“As a board we're totally fine with it. We appreciated her honesty and we certainly appreciated her being here. We think she's been really good for the organization.&rdquo
HARVEY- FOULDS has programmed the Red Rocks folk festival for several years as a volunteer, and plans to continue that. Her first Summerfolk lineup was the 30th annual last August.
She assumed the role with a goal and a mandate to return the event to its folk roots. She brought back mostly favourite acts from the festival's history, with a mix of newer, younger folk artists and a few veterans who had never played Summerfolk.
She said her plan then, and again this year, was to gather musicians who knew one another or could work well enough together to mix up entertaining and spontaneous music at the informal workshops, which are more vital to the festival's success than spotlight evening performances, she said.
“I tried not to focus on trying to prove anything to anybody, because there was a lot of pressure I realized after the event on me to prove that I could do it. I decided not to think about that, but instead to think about a celebration of the festival's past and the strengths of the community and making the weekend a really wonderful experience.&rdquo
She said she was justifiably criticized by some last year for hiring too few women, not enough country musicians, and especially not enough world music. She's fixed that this year with a lineup announced Saturday night which includes African guitarists, several Cuban and Latin jazz groups, a long list of women songwriters and singers, and several country music performers.
The lineup for the August 18, 19 and 20 festival at Kelso Beach includes:
Plenty of Cuban, African and Latin American acts for world music fans, including The African Guitar, Jane Bunnett and her band of Cuban and Canadian jazz players, a 12-piece band from Cuba, the Latin Jazz band Flamenco Caravan, and Latin jazz singer Eliana Cuevas.
Prairie Oyster and Alan Rhody from Nashville for country fans.
A long list of women including Juno winner Lynn Miles, Mae Moore with Lester Quitzau, blues singer Rita Chiarelli, The Anne Lindsay Band, and Fig for A Kiss, featuring Sahra Featherstone.
Songwriters Bill Bourne; Alex Sinclair of Tamarack; Ottawa-area newcomer Brock ZEEMAN; and both Steve DICKINSON and David SEREDA from the Owen Sound area, as well as Walkerton's Richard KNECHTEL.
Groups include East Coast rockers and award winners Chucky Danger, the Appalachian and Celtic influenced New England trio Crooked Still and Winnipeg's D. Rangers, who mix Bluegrass and western swing with a punk rock attitude.
Rob Elder and Friends, with Pete Devlin and Joel Morelli, who were clear crowd favourites to win a main stage slot with their 15-minute Last Chance Saloon performance Saturday night. It was the second time Elder has won the event.
Georgian Bay Folk Society policies require the board to advertise the artistic director position every two years. Advertisements will go out immediately with plans to fill the position by June and have both new and current artistic directors at this year's festival for a smooth transition.
Both the director and the president said Saturday there are clear and obvious advantages for whoever programs the festival to reside in the local community.
“I don't want to say that they should hire someone who lives in the community. That's not my place to say,” HARVEY- FOULDS said. “I don't think it's necessary to run the festival for the person to be here, but for me, if I'm the artistic director I need to be here. I need to be part of the community.&rdquo
When it became clear moving to Owen Sound was off, she said she bowed out of the position.
HEARN- ERB believes the job should go to someone living in the area.
“But that's not necessarily what the board will decide to do,&rdquo she said Saturday. “I think it's important to be involved in the community. Summerfolk is a community event. It really is and I think it's important for the person that's in charge of that aspect of it to understand the community.&rdquo
Only three of more than 30 candidates to replace BIRD were Grey-Bruce residents.
BIRD lives in Toronto but was originally from Owen Sound and maintained a local connection during his 10-year tenure and was able to attend almost every board meeting, HEARN- ERB said.

HEARN, Edward▲ Thomas
By Katie HEARN, Page A14
Husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather. Born April 10, 1916, in Toronto. Died August 25 in Guelph, Ontario, of complications due to cancer, age 90.
Born to Frank and Lucinda HEARN in Toronto in 1916, Edward Thomas was the first of three sons.
In 1945, Ed married Helen HARRIS, and over the next 61 years they built a life with their three children, six grandchildren, and, most recently, a great-grand_son. He moved to Guelph with his wife and three young children when General Electric -- the company he faithfully devoted himself to for more than 40 years before retiring -- moved plants.
Ed was never happier than when he was with his family. His smile was never so bright -- and that smile could light up a room -- as when he was surrounded by those he loved: at the head of the Thanksgiving dinner table, beside the Christmas tree passing out presents, in his granddaughter's backyard at his great-grand_son's first birthday party.
Ed always knew what was going on in everyone's lives. He and Helen shared their house in Guelph for more than 50 years, and we all dropped in regularly -- most often on Saturday mornings when coffee and butter tarts were in abundance -- for an update, a chat, or a look at the latest puzzle he was working on. Always interested and full of questions, Ed showed genuine pleasure and excitement every time one of his grandchildren finished high school, graduated from university, got a new job, moved, married, or left on a trip. It was never a surprise to hear that the neighbours, the bank teller, the cashier at the grocery store, knew what Ed's kids and grandkids were up to. He was fiercely proud of his family, and it showed everywhere he went.
Ed's other great love was for the outdoors. In 1960 he bought a piece of land, and with the help of Helen, his sons and daughter, and his brothers Jack and Frank, he built a cottage on Go Home Lake. In the early years, he and Helen would drive up as soon as possible on the weekends, often late Saturday night after Helen had finished her shift as a clerk at a retail store. Their kids would be there already, having spent the day cleaning up after one of their infamous, parentless, Friday night parties. Years later, Ed's grandchildren made Go Home Lake part of their summer routine as well. Countless cribbage tournaments, birthday parties, and long-weekend regattas were celebrated in a cottage bursting to the seams with people, and with laughter (especially when it was Ed's turn to reveal his particularly creative answers during a heated game of Scattergories). An active member of the Cottager's Association for many years, Ed warmly welcomed everyone into his second home. Those who knew the "Go Home" Ed remember him for his swimming (and, in later years, his wading), his morning canoe trips, his commitment to raising his Canadian flag every season no matter what the weather, his hearty cottage breakfasts, and his knowledge of the constellations, demonstrated during many late-night campfires.
Ed was also well known for his unfailing good humour and kindness. During a bout with his illness last year that led to a prolonged stay in the hospital, the nurses regaled his family with stories of his jokes and his quick wit. And when his illness progressed this past summer, even though Ed sensed the end might be approaching, when the doctor asked if he wanted to know how much time he had left Ed answered, sharp as ever, "Well, I'd like until at least Unfortunately, Ed didn't get until 2010. But he did get 90 years surrounded by family and Friends who respected and loved him for teaching them so much; most of all, for teaching them about the importance of laughter.
Katie HEARN is Ed's granddaughter.

HEARN, Sister Agnes, S.O.S.
Died peacefully at LaSalle Manor, Scarborough, Ontario, April 22, 2006, having served 78 years as a Sister of Service. Born in St. Catharines, Ontario, she was one of the ten children born to Thomas J. HEARN and Mary Ann BENCH. Predeceased▲ by her sisters Margaret BUSSELL, Eva JONES, Theresa HEARN, Catherine BLAKELY, her brothers Joseph, Francis, Ambrose, Leo and Thomas, she would have celebrated her 100th Birthday on May 5, 2006.

Agnes will be remembered for her fervent zeal, her zest for life, her boundless enthusiasm and energy and her complete faith and trust in God.

HEARNDEN, Kenneth William
Professor Emeritus, Lakehead University, Registered Professional Forester
Died peacefully in the Norfolk Hospital Nursing Home on April 7 in Simcoe. He leaves behind his wife, Sheilagh McCULLAGH, sons James (Donna BURNSIDE), Stanley, John (Tammy QUIGLEY), as well as his two granddaughters, Colleen and Quinn. He is survived by his two sisters, Enid ROULEAU and Esme (Jim) HUNT. He was predeceased by his daughter Echo Jean. Ken was born in Toronto on May 11, 1923. He attended Parkdale Collegiate Institute and finished grade 13 with first class honours. Ken graduated with a Bachelor of Science of Forestry Degree in 1946 with first class honours from Toronto University. He began his career working briefly as a Canadian Government Dominion Forest Service researcher in Sault Ste. Marie. He left this position in the same year, 1946, to join Abitibi Paper Company at its Lakehead Woodlands Division. He became a Divisional Forester and played a role in planning and managing the company's operations in northwestern Ontario. Ken left Abitibi in 1969 to join Lakehead University's School of Forestry as an associate professor. In 1971, he became the Director and later Chairman of the school. The school grew considerably during his 9 years of leadership. Ken went on to become the Dean of Students at the University in 1980. He retired in 1985 and was appointed Professor Emeritus by Lakehead University's Board of Governors in 1986. A Scholarship in Forestry was created in his name by the University. Ken held very strong views on the need to reform industry wide forestry management practices. He was often quoted and interviewed by the news media as an authoritative voice for change. Some of his students were notable for carrying forward his concerns in their own careers. Ken was very involved in professional associations. He was President of the Canadian Institute of Forestry, 1964-65, President of the Ontario Professional Foresters Association, 1969-71 (later a Life Member), and Secretary-Treasurer, Association of University Forestry Schools of Canada, 1973-80. He also engaged in consulting. Most notably, Ken conducted the Ontario Independent Forest Audit, 1991-1992, for the Ontario Minister of Natural Resources, and the Report on Environmental Progress in Forestry Operations in Ontario, 1987, a survey and report for the "Forests Forever" consortium, which included the Federation of Ontario Naturalists, Canadian Environmental Law Association and others. He consulted and reported on Canadian Indian Reserves forestry issues for the federal Department of Indian and Northern Affairs. Ken had a very strong sense of civic responsibility and volunteered for many boards, in both Thunder Bay, and then in southwestern Ontario after his retirement. In Thunder Bay, his volunteer activities included being a member of the North Western Ontario Commission on Employment, 1960-62, a member of the former city of Port Arthur Board of Park Management, 1966-68 and Chairman of the same city's Building Committee, 1966-67. He was Chairman of the Lakehead Region Conservation Authority, 1968-73. As well, he was a member of the Lakehead Planning Board, 1969-1970 and Vice-President of the Canadian Club of Thunder Bay, 1975-77, and President, 1978-79. Ken purchased a sector of land in the Township of Shuniah in the 1970s for family recreational use. This led to his becoming a member of the township's Committee of Adjustment, 1972-75 and Chairman, 1975, of the Planning Board, 1978 and then Vice-Chairman, 1981-1983. Ken, and his wife Sheilagh, purchased a home in Normandale, a small hamlet by Lake Erie, near Port Dover and Simcoe, Ontario. Once again, Ken found himself active in the community. He was a member of the Township of Delhi Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee, 1986 and Chairman, 1988-90, and a member of the Haldimand-Norfolk District Health Council starting in 1990, and Chairman between 1993 and 95. He acted as Treasurer for the Canadian Mental Health Association, Haldimand Norfolk Branch in 1992, and was Vice President in 1995. He was a member of the Board of Directors of the Long Point World Biosphere Reserve in 1993. Ken was a dedicated 50-year member of the Masonic Lodge. He first joined in 1956, going on to become a Past Master of Connaught Lodge in Thunder Bay, the President of Thunder Bay Temple Buildings Ltd (1974-77), and was a Grand Stewart of the Grand Lodge in Ontario in 1974. He joined the Vittoria and Norfolk Lodges after he moved to Normandale. Ken was a member of the Scottish Rite, in which he was appointed an Honorary Inspector-General, 33 Degree. There will be no memorial service in accordance with Ken's wishes. Please remember him in anyway appropriate to your relationship with him. If you wish, plant a tree in memory of him.
