HENDERSON, Donna▼
February 17, 2004
Two years ago today came the end of your fight,
Although difficult for us we knew it was right.
You fought through days of sickness and pain,
But we know that our loss is the Lord's gain.
In spite of everything, you were so strong,
We're not sure how, you held on for so long.
Our selfish tears flow because of your love,
Yet content that you are in heaven above.
You are at peace now and for that we are glad,
But that doesn't mean that we are not still sad.
There will always be a heartache and often a tear,
For all the precious memories of you when you were here.
We hold you close within our hearts and there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives until we meet again.
Always remembered with smiles and much loved by Ron, Mike and Becci, Karen and Darryl.

Missing London boater's body pulled from lake near Erieau
By Patrick MALONEY, Free Press Reporter, Wed., September 20, A body found in Lake Erie has been identified as a missing Londoner who disappeared while boating with a friend last month.
Bill HENDERSON, 61, who owned his own renovations company, cast off from the Port Glasgow Yacht Club with longtime friend Joe MAJER on August 20 in HENDERSON's five-metre fibreglass boat. Soon afterward, marina owner Carol WOLF received a distress call, which triggered a huge police search.
But after four days -- during which the body of MAJER, 73, was found 13 kilometres offshore -- police called off the search for HENDERSON. Last weekend, a boater found a body floating near the small Chatham-Kent town of Erieau.
Police recovered the body Saturday about three nautical miles from shore and later identified it as HENDERSON, Ontario Provincial Police Const. Michelle SCOTT said yesterday.
That investigators, who scoured along the coast near Erieau on August 24, didn't find HENDERSON sooner underscores the difficulties of marine searches, she added.
"We have no control over the water and weather," SCOTT said, adding the original search grid didn't cover the eventual discovery spot. "That's what takes over the investigation."
HENDERSON, who had been Friends with MAJER since they were neighbours in the 1970s, was an experienced boater and hunter.
One day after the disappearance, HENDERSON was described by family as a "very, very experienced boater, fisher (and) hunter," who saw leisurely boat trips as "his escape."
"It was what he did when he could when he wasn't working," daughter Kara HENDERSON said. "His life was working, fishing and hunting."
The disappearances of HENDERSON and MAJER came almost exactly seven years after a 1999 boating mishap off Port Glasgow that killed five people. In that case, it was more than three months before all the bodies were recovered.
While this week's discovery was disappointing, police expressed some relief for HENDERSON's relatives.
"Obviously we always want to keep our hopes high (for) a positive ending," SCOTT said.
"It's unfortunate that it wasn't a positive conclusion, but at least it wasn't as long a wait for the family."

Canada's first news anchor had flawless, direct delivery
Larry HENDERSON died Monday in London's Parkwood Hospital at By Joe MATYAS, Free Press Reporter, Wed., November 29, 2006
Larry HENDERSON was the first regular news reader on Canadian Broadcasting Corporation-television's The National News. (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation file photo)
The man who pioneered the role of television news anchor in Canada died Monday in London at the age of 89.
Larry HENDERSON was "the first real anchor and nationally known television news personality" in the country, Michael NOLAN said yesterday.
"He helped make the nightly news broadcast a national institution," said NOLAN, a former news anchor and professor of journalism at the University of Western Ontario.
"He embedded the notion of the anchor in people's minds at a time when Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Television was expanding across the nation."
Born and raised in Montreal, HENDERSON studied music at McGill University and spent some time in England as a Shakespearean actor, sharing the stage with such notables as Alec Guinness.
In a 1990 interview with The Free Press, he told NOLAN "those years were useful to me because I learned there the hard rules of presenting words, ideas and yourself to the public."
HENDERSON joined the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Radio staff in 1940. He later enlisted in the Canadian Army, serving in North Africa and Italy during the Second World War.
Following the war, he returned to radio broadcasting in Toronto where he hosted the Headliners show on CFRB.
In 1950, HENDERSON became the first Canadian broadcaster to cover the Korean War. He spent three years in Europe, interviewing world figures for Headliners, and in 1954, he became Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television's National News reader.
Canadian television was barely two years old then, said NOLAN, adding there was "a hazy period" before HENDERSON became the anchor when various announcers delivered short reports.
"He had a knack for it. He could look at copy and memorize it well enough to deliver the news flawlessly while looking directly into the camera."
The fact he hardly ever made mistakes was amazing, considering there were no teleprompters, said NOLAN.
HENDERSON had an authoritative air and conveyed credibility largely because he was a newsman with field experience, NOLAN said.
"He wasn't just someone who read the news in a studio."
HENDERSON was the face of the National News until 1959. After that he worked for CFI radio, CHCH television and CTV National News.
During the 1970s, HENDERSON helped Tanzania organize its national broadcasting system. In 1974, he became editor of the Catholic Register. He was also managing editor of Challenge, a Catholic monthly, before retiring in 2002.
HENDERSON had been living quietly in London since 1988. He died in his sleep at Parkwood Hospital, said his son Graham, a Toronto lawyer.
HENDERSON's other son, Ross, a Strathroy resident, is also a lawyer.
A funeral mass for him is planned for tomorrow in Toronto.

MILLER, Barbara (née ARMSTRONG)
The Long Goodbye is Over Peacefully at Residence GeorgesHebert in Jonquiere, Quebec on June 20, 2006. Predeceased by her husband O'Kill and her brother Joe, she leaves behind her loving daughter Sandra (Christopher). She will also be missed by her brothers Geoffrey (Vivian) and David (Ruth,) sisters-in-law Yvonne ARMSTRONG, Gypsie HENDERSON, and Joan MILLER, as well as extended family and Friends. Born in Barbados on May 5, 1922, she grew up at Pool Plantation and attended Codrington High School, where she excelled in literature, arts, and drama. She became Assistant Matron there after graduating and was well loved for her energy, good humour, and devotion to the students in her charge. During World War 2, she served as a Teletype Operator with the British Signals Corps in England and afterwards returned to Barbados where she worked as an office manager at the Diagnostic Clinic, keeping the staff and patients happy with her vivacious good humour and outgoing nature. Barbara met her future husband O'Kill when he visited Barbados and they married in 1961. They lived in Kenogami, Quebec where O'Kill was a papermaker and where Barbara volunteered with the St. Andrew's United Church Ladies Group. She was a voracious and curious reader, filling the family home with books, and could argue passionately on any subject that Friends and family could get her worked up about. Barbara cared for O'Kill after he suffered a serious car accident in 1973 and encouraged her daughter to be anything she wanted to be. She was a proud 'new' Canadian and loved exploring her adopted country from coast to coast even after her stroke in 1986. Mom was Grace and Passion personified to her last day she will be forever loved. Very special thanks to Jean and Dave BELL, and Helen and Peter MARSHALL who gave most generously of their time and Friendship over the years. Special thanks as well to the staff of Residence Georges-Hebert. In lieu of flowers, please give generously to the Alzheimer Society.

Larry HENDERSON, Broadcaster And Editor: (1917-2006)
He was the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's first regular newsreader on what became The National, only to leave for becoming a household name. He later became editor of The Catholic Register
By F.F. LANGAN, Special to The Globe and Mail; Globe and Mail archives, Page S9
Toronto -- For five years in the 1950s, Larry HENDERSON owned the most famous face in Canada. As the first regular anchor of Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's national television news from 1954 to 1959, his steep brow and distinctive mustache were known from coast to coast. He later went to work for other broadcast outlets, including CTV News, then switched careers by becoming a conservative and outspoken editor of The Catholic Register.
But it was on early television that he made his mark. "There isn't much doubt that, in Canada, the name HENDERSON means television news," said Maclean's in September of 1957. Twice a day, at 6: 45 p.m. and 11 p.m., he would read the national news on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, which was then the only television network in Canada.
His newscasts left a lasting impression on a young Peter MANSBRIDGE growing up in Ottawa. "We bought our first television in 1956 and all I remember is Patti Page and Larry HENDERSON," said Mr. MANSBRIDGE, now the lead anchor on The National. "He was my introduction to television news. There was a lot of Larry HENDERSON reading, and the odd picture back then."
At the time, all television announcers had started out in radio, with the information coming from wire services and the front pages of newspapers. The first newscasts were more like bulletins rather than today's glitzy programs. To ensure that viewers paid attention to the news and not to a single face, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation distributed the job among a roster of announcers. Newscasts were only five minutes long and seldom incorporated any film. If footage could be found, it was usually presented in the style of a Movietone newsreel without sound, except for what might later be added in the studio.
That all changed with the arrival of Larry HENDERSON. He had come to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation with a background in theatre and music. Raised in Montreal, he was educated in the city's Protestant school board system. His father was a wool merchant, and his mother was an artist who encouraged her son's musical and acting talents.
As a boy, he put on plays, wrote scripts and played the piano. He won a scholarship to McGill University, where he studied music. After graduating, he decided to try his luck on the English stage and took a freighter across the Atlantic. He arrived in Britain with $50 in his pocket and fetched up in Birmingham, where he worked in a factory before landing a job in local theatre. One of the highlights of his acting career was to perform with a young Alec Guinness in Romeo and Juliet in Perth, Scotland. Then the Second World War broke out and the theatre closed, forcing him to return to Canada.
He used his theatrical training to work as an announcer for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, studied electrical engineering and joined the Officer Training Corps. In 1943, he was commissioned a lieutenant in the Canadian Army signal corps and served as a signals officer in Italy and northwest Europe.
In 1945, with the war almost over, he was recalled to direct the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's shortwave International Service that was broadcast to the troops. Shortly after that, he returned to an announcer's job at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
He left the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in the late 1940s and worked for radio station CFRB, producing a program called Headliners, 10-minute radio items from overseas that ran five times a week on 24 Canadian radio stations.
In 1949, he married Joan ANNAND, whom he had met at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Two years later, they set out for Europe. Armed with a recording machine, they retraced the steps of the Canadian army through Italy and produced segments for Headliners. An admirer of American broadcaster Edward R. Morrow, Mr. HENDERSON patterned his broadcasts on that style.
In 1950, he spent six weeks in Korea. As the first Canadian broadcaster sent to cover the Korean War, he was accredited to U.S. General Douglas MacArthur's headquarters and toured Japan, Hong Kong, Indochina, India and Yugoslavia, all the while filing reports. He also turned out a similar international series for Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Radio called Passports to Adventure.
In 1954, Mr. HENDERSON returned to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to pitch an idea to Mavor Moore, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation-television's program director. An accomplished photographer, Mr. HENDERSON's scheme was to run his slides on air with commentary. Mr. Moore heard him out but had other ideas. Instead of the travelogue, he decided to hire Mr. HENDERSON as the first permanent reader of national television news in Canada.
The policy of using a herd of announcers had not worked, and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation was looking for someone permanent to anchor the news. At the same time, though, the corporation was nervous about allowing a television personality to develop, and it discouraged Mr. HENDERSON from doing much more than present the news. The newscast was expanded to 15 minutes, and Mr. HENDERSON began reading his scripts over film. His role grew and he became one of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's first television correspondents to report from the field.
Mr. HENDERSON made several visits to the Middle East, including one to Egypt in April of 1956. That summer, Egypt's Gamal Abdel Nasser nationalized the Suez Canal, and soon Britain, France and Israel went to war against Cairo. The camera equipment of the day was bulky. Mr. HENDERSON travelled with Canadian Broadcasting Corporation cameraman Bob Crone and all the necessary gear they needed to record interviews.
Like many announcers of the time, Mr. HENDERSON's background was more theatrical than journalistic. This was before the era of the teleprompter. Mr. HENDERSON would memorize a script for at least an hour before the broadcast. That way, he would seldom have to look down at it.
It wasn't long before he was being recognized on the street, and soon developed ideas of his own. His plan was to work exclusively on The National. For its part, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation continued to distrust anyone who resembled a broadcast star and made every effort to discourage him. Somewhat short-tempered by nature, and perhaps feeling constrained by Canadian Broadcasting Corporation policy, Mr. HENDERSON became the enfant terrible of Canadian television. He had a reputation for swearing on air, and for speaking so quickly when prompted to speed up that the audience heard only gibberish. He once stormed off the set when a piece of footage failed to roll.
In 1959, he left the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation after a dispute over his contract. Mr. HENDERSON had proposed that he anchor only the National; the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation wanted him to do other things as well. "Canadian Broadcasting Corporation star Henderson dropped," read the headline in The Toronto Telegram.
He went to work for radio station CHFI in Toronto and television station CHCH in Hamilton. Later, he joined CTV National News as a commentator on international affairs, and the weekend newsreader. It was during this period that he became interested in Catholicism.
"My father met a priest in Ottawa in the late 1960s and started talking to him about his faith," said Graham HENDERSON, who lives in Toronto. "When he converted to Catholicism, the whole family was shocked. My mother brought us up as Presbyterians [and] he had been an atheist."
After he left broadcasting full time, Mr. HENDERSON ran a school for broadcasting and did other work, including going to Africa for the Canadian International Development Agency to help set up Tanzania's broadcasting system.
In 1973, Mr. HENDERSON began writing articles for The Catholic Register, a Toronto-based publication that ranked among the oldest English-language Catholic weekly newspapers in Canada. He became editor the following year and steered the newspaper to a prominent role in the Canadian anti-abortion movement.
In 1981, he raised a furor by directing the Register to accept paid advertisements from an anti-abortion group recommending that voters reject Tory candidates in the Ontario election. Campaign Life had placed ads to say Conservative candidates were poor choices for voters and blamed then-premier William Davis for supporting Pierre Trudeau's constitutional package, including a Charter of Rights. Entrenchment of the Charter, it warned, would lead to abortion on demand, homosexual marriages, adoptions by homosexuals, and the loss by women of financial support from their husbands.
In 1985, the Register urged Ontario voters to spoil ballots in that year's provincial election. It was an attitude not supported by the Archdiocese of Toronto, and the writing was on the wall. Mr. HENDERSON left the paper the next year after having increased subscriptions from 30,000 to 60,000, replaced by an editor with more moderate views.
Mr. HENDERSON had the satisfaction of seeing his replacement, Peter HOWELL, resign in little more than a year. By all accounts, readers did not find favour with what they perceived as new liberal views and wrote to tell him so. "Nobody likes getting hate mail, but that's what it amounts to," Mr. HOWELL said.
In contrast, many of the letters had praised Mr. HENDERSON for upholding traditional church views.
Mr. HENDERSON was not finished. He joined Challenge, a Catholic monthly magazine, as managing editor and retired in 2002.
Larry HENDERSON was born in Montreal on September 4, 1917. He died in Toronto of unspecified causes on November 26, 2006. He was 89. He leaves his sons Graham and Ross. His wife, Joan, died in 1980.

Jack McARTHUR, 79: Star editor, columnist
Former business editor knew his stuff
'He was a wonderful curmudgeon'
By Kenneth KIDD, Feature Writer
You could almost get the measure of Jack McARTHUR just by looking at him, not least in what became his natural environment.
Until well into the 1980s, the Toronto Star newsroom was still a sepia place, littered with clanging old typewriters and big, black telephones. The air was filled with yellow smoke.
And there McARTHUR would sit, stooped over his Underwood with a White Owl cigar in his mouth, wearing the same grey cardigan he donned every day at work.
When McARTHUR was writing his business column -- and he did that five times a week, plus a stock market wrap-up for Saturday -- there wasn't a better portrait of sheer concentration amid chaos.
That is how it came to pass that one day, mid-column, McARTHUR blindly tried to put his cigar in the ashtray behind him. He missed. The White Owl rolled away on his desk and was soon igniting a pile of papers.
But McARTHUR just kept on typing, hardly glancing back as John HONDERICH -- then ostensibly his boss as business editor -- rushed over to douse the flames.
"Firefighting was only one part of being the business editor," says HONDERICH, who went on to be the Star's publisher. "Keeping Jack happy was the other. He was a wonderful curmudgeon, truly one of the greats who knew his stuff inside out. He lived business through and through and he was a prolific column writer."
McARTHUR, who retired from the Star in 1991 but kept on writing three freelance columns a week for many years, died Tuesday (May 9) at age 79.
A two-finger typist of the old school, McARTHUR "sounded like a Gatling gun when he was hammering out his column," recalls Star columnist James DAW.
His pronouncements were often pithy, tart and knowing. And despite his intimidating appearance, younger reporters would often seek his expert opinion, usually in the minutes before deadline.
McARTHUR's standard response always began with a kind of howling, half-moan: "Aaaaagghh." That would be followed by something axiomatic, like this one about stock-market gains or losses that investors hadn't actually realized by selling the stock in question: "It was only paper then and it's only paper now."
"God, how I loved him," recalls Diane FRANCIS, who got her start in business journalism at the Star in the 1980s. "We were all kind of frightened of him, but his bark was worse than his bite. He was crusty, but boy, he knew lots."
McARTHUR was likely the only person in the department who read every Bank of Canada Review from cover to cover, along with piles of Statistics Canada reports. But except for his weekly story on the stock market, numbers rarely made their way into his columns.
"He'd just done the research in order to tell the story," says DAW.
And he had a way of seeing through complexity and spin-doctoring, says Helen HENDERSON, a former assistant financial editor and now Star columnist. "He could boil it down to its essence, into something you could understand, without ever talking down to you."
Saskatchewan-born in 1927, McARTHUR went on to take a degree in political science and economics at the University of Saskatchewan before launching his career in journalism. He worked at the Regina Leader-Post and The Western Producer before landing at the Financial Post, where he eventually became Montreal bureau chief.
Beland HONDERICH, then the Star's editor-in-chief, hired McARTHUR in 1960 as business editor, a post he held for the next 14 years, before going back to writing full-time.
In those days, editors also wrote columns and McARTHUR's personnel file soon became filled with praise from senior managers.
"What's he worth to the Star is almost incalculable," wrote one. "He's by far the best financial writer in Canada."
Writing was what mattered to McARTHUR, and he had little patience with the more bureaucratic aspects of newsroom management. Legend has it that McARTHUR once stopped going to management meetings unless Beland HONDERICH specifically asked for his presence.
In a typical memo to senior managers, McARTHUR had a blunt critique of a new budget-making process for the newsroom: "The new one seems fine in theory but bad in practice."
But McARTHUR had a soft underbelly. "The gentler side of Jack was that he was a mentor and a sage to many business reporters," says John HONDERICH. "He always had a moment of time to talk to people. He was a person I constantly went to seeking advice. His judgment was impeccable."
Kenneth KIDD worked with McARTHUR in the 1980s and served as the Star's business editor from 2000 to 2005.
