REYNOLDS,
David
Donald
Of Saint Thomas, passed away at the London Health Sciences Centre,
Victoria Campus, Westminster Site on Monday, September 25, 2006
in his 83rd year. Beloved husband of the late Beryl Ann
(HALL)
of Saskatchewan, father to James and his wife Gail, Jacqueline,
and Bill and his wife Cindy. Sadly missed by his 8 grandchildren
Leslie, Kristen, Michael, Breanne, Patrick, Mike, Matthew and
Sara. In 1983 he remarried and is survived by his wife Erika.
Brother of Jessie
ROSS, Bob
REYNOLDS and the late Sherry
KEARY.
He was born (1924) in Innisfail, Alberta, spent his early years
in the Caribou Mountains of British Columbia and grew up in the
Kawartha region of eastern Ontario. During the Second World War,
he served several years with the Royal Canadian Air Force in
Burma, flying with the storied "31 Squadron" of the Royal Air
Force. After settling in Saint Thomas, he served as Captain, Paymaster
and Financial Officer at the Elgin Regiment. He pursued his passion
for flying at the Saint Thomas Municipal Airport, served on the
Saint Thomas Council for Airport Re-development Committee and was
a familiar personality and friend to many flying enthusiasts
for over 25 years. At 70 years of age, he traded his "wings"
for an active involvement with the Elgin Model Railway Association,
where he developed his skill for detailed model construction.
On several occasions he enjoyed hosting other model railroaders
by displaying his authentic 1890's set-up of steam-powered trains
running in western Canadian towns. His business career, which
spanned nearly 40 years, began with the Bank of Montreal in Saint Thomas
and continued for over 30 years as Secretary Treasurer and Chief
Financial Officer of Brown Fintube Limited. During this time
he was responsible for fiscally steering the company through
both acquisitions and mergers with larger U.S. based organizations.
He was ahead of his time in realizing the benefits that came,
for both the local work force and the Saint Thomas community, from
having home-grown executives manage local companies. He always
spoke fondly of his fellow employees and was proud of their accomplishments
together. Friends will be received at the Sifton Funeral Home,
118 Wellington Street, Saint Thomas on Friday, September 29th from
2-4 and 7-9 p.m., where the funeral service will be held Saturday
at 11: 00 a.m. Interment in Holy Angels' Cemetery, followed by
a reception at the Royal Canadian Legion - Branch 410, Port Stanley.
Those who wish may make memorial donations to The Kidney Foundation
of Canada or the Canadian Cancer Society.

HEASLIP,
William
Arthurs, C.M., LL.D. (Hon.)
(July 5, 1927-March 3, 2006)
78, died suddenly of a cerebral hemorrhage at Sarasota Memorial
Hospital,
Florida, on March 3, 2006. Adored husband of Nona
MacDONALD,
he is the cherished brother of Betty
DREW-
BROOK
(Bob) of Qualicum
Beach, British Columbia. He was predeceased by his two other
sisters, Alice
RADFORD
(Paul) and Doris
MORRIS (Bert.) He is
uncle of Bruce
RADFORD (Rosemary), Brenda Radford
MILLION (Rob)
the MORRIS children - Debra, Lee, Sheri, Bob, Bill and Brad -
and of the Drew-Brooks - Alan, Neil and Paul. He and the late
Richard CHATER co-founded one of Canada's largest retail clothing
conglomerates, Grafton Group Ltd. Bill retired as Chief Executive
Officer and Chairman in 1992. He was appointed a Member of the
Order of Canada and received an Honorary Doctorate from St. Francis
Xavier University, Nova Scotia. His interest in education led
him to create undergraduate ongoing scholarships for the following
universities: Toronto, York, Western Ontario, Waterloo, Guelph,
Prince Edward Island, Memorial, Manitoba and British Columbia.
His many grand-nieces and grand-nephews will remember him for
his financial assistance in achieving their higher education
goals. At the University of Toronto, he established the Nona
Macdonald Visitors Centre and the Macdonald Heaslip Walkway at
Hart House Theater. At Ryerson University, Heaslip House for
Continuing Education opened recently as did The Macdonald Heaslip
Theatre at Sheridan Institute, Oakville. Other significant gifts
have been made to Shaw Festival, Soulpepper Theatre, Toronto
Symphony, Canadian Opera Company, Art Gallery of Ontario, Design
Centre and Banff Centre for the Arts. He was a dedicated fundraiser
and board member of Care Canada and Canadian Liver Foundation.
He made major gifts to United Way, Rotary Club and Hincks Institute.
Hospitals that benefitted from his giving include: Sunnybrook,
Women's College, St. Michael's and Toronto General. An avid golfer,
he held club memberships at Rosedale, Toronto Hunt; and
in Florida
at The Oaks he scored a 77, one-less-his-age, this January. A
skilled fly fisherman, he belonged to Ristigouche Salmon Club,
New Brunswick, and to the Caledon Mountain Trout Club, Ontario.
Other recreational clubs were Tadenac in Georgian Bay and Griffiths
Island. Two highlights of a favourite sport, Ballooning, were
soaring over The Alps and participating in the 200th Anniversary
of Ballooning, starting from Place de la Concorde, Paris. His
love of wine was enjoyed with the members of The Tastevin des
Chevaliers and The Commanderie de Bordeaux societies. In the
1820's, the Heaslips immigrated to Ontario from County Wexford,
Ireland. This Irish background may account for his convivial
and generous nature. Unfortunately, the 'luck of the Irish' ran
out when heart disease, prevalent in the family, became his problem
in later years. Thanks to superb surgery, he survived two by-pass
operations at Toronto General Hospital where he has been a decade-long
patient of Dr. Douglas
WIGLE, his friend and cardiologist. Stricken
suddenly at his Florida residence, he succumbed to a stroke.
An organ donor at his death, he gave the ultimate gift - his
liver so befitting a benefactor of the Canadian Liver Foundation.
Bill HEASLIP will be remembered always, by his wide-ranging coterie
of loyal Friends; by George and Joan
REYNOLDS, by Carmelita and
Danny ALCALA and by his wife's family, the Macdonald clan. Family
and Friends are invited to celebrate his life on Monday, May
8, 2006 at Rosedale Golf Club, Toronto from 5: 30 to 8:00 p.m.
If desired, a charitable donation may be made to any of the above-mentioned
universities or to Theatre Museum Canada, 77 Bloor St. West,
Ste. 1903, Toronto, Ontario M5S 1M2.

Bill HEASLIP,
Retailer: (1927-2006)
He went from running a Toronto hardware store to owning one of
Canada's largest men's clothing outlets, then lost it in one
of the first big retail bankruptcies of the 1990s
By Danny GALLAGHER,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S7
Toronto -- When Bill
HEASLIP was 33, he was a co-owner of a big
hardware store in downtown Toronto and reasonably happy, but
he still yearned for a bigger piece of Canada's retail rainbow.
Mr. HEASLIP and Richard
CHATER, a fellow partner at the store,
sought to buy into something bigger. High on their priority list
was a public company that was listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
The savvy pair zeroed in on Grafton Group Ltd., a family-owned
chain of 11 men's and women's clothing stores whose roots went
back to 1853, making it the second-oldest retail chain in Canada
behind Hudson's Bay Co.
In 1961, the two Friends made the plunge. Little did they know
they would become multi-millionaires.
Bill HEASLIP grew up in the west end of Toronto and attended
Runnymede public school and Humberside Collegiate Institute.
His family could not afford to send him to university, so he
went to work for his father, who sold advertising for the agriculture-oriented
trade paper Canadian Countryman.
He did not stay long. By 1946, he had found a job at White's,
a wholesale-retail hardware operation owned by the Chater family.
Later, Mr.
HEASLIP and Mr.
CHATER assumed control and eventually
decided to get into retail clothing. Their timing was perfect.
Grafton's middle-of-the-line, moderately priced clothing stores
were in vogue across the country. Over time, the Jack Fraser,
George Richards and Elks men's banners were added, along with
Maher Shoes, Donita women's wear shops and the U.S.-based Seiferts
chain of 200 stores.
But perhaps the most appealing of any acquisition Mr.
HEASLIP
and Mr. CHATER concocted came in 1967 when they obtained the
licence to manage clothing for F.W. Woolworth's Woolco stores
across Canada. It was a gold-mine contract that they would hold
for close to 25 years. The pair sat back and watched the money
roll in.
"That deal with Woolworth was quickly lucrative. It was something
we tried to keep well hidden," said George
REYNOLDS, who was
Grafton's chief financial officer for 30 years.
Eventually, the Grafton empire grew from 11 stores to a staggering
1,100. Mr.
CHATER was the company's brain trust and Chief Executive
Officer, and Mr.
HEASLIP served as senior vice-president. In
1982, Mr. CHATER died and Mr.
HEASLIP became controlling shareholder
Mr. REYNOLDS remained as Chief Financial Officer.
"Not only was Bill an intellectual with great business sense,
but his greatest virtue was patience and he was a very successful
Chief
Executive
Officer for that reason," said John
McDONALD,
a former board member whose family controls the Black and McDonald
electrical and mechanical engineering empire.
By the late 1980s, Grafton was still holding its own in the clothing
business but soon became a victim of a failing retail market
that later claimed Simpsons and then the Eaton chain. First to
go was the Woolco chain. In 1991, Woolworth decided not to renew
its contract with Grafton, dealing a big blow to the company.
"The non-renewal was preparation for Wal-Mart buying the [144]
Woolco stores," Mr.
REYNOLDS said. "Too many of the stores weren't
profitable."
In December of 1991, Grafton stunned Bay Street by filing for
bankruptcy protection. The banks stepped in and, within a few
months, the chain was taken over by a group headed by Glenn
STONEHOUSE,
a Grafton executive vice-president who assumed full control in
1994. Today, the company is called Grafton-Fraser and boasts
about 180 stores, including 115 Tip Top Tailors outlets and 25 outlets
of the George Richards tall-men brand.
After the bankruptcy, Mr.
HEASLIP turned to philanthropy. Over
the years, he helped support theatre groups, the Toronto Symphony
Orchestra, Canadian Opera Company, Art Gallery of Ontario, Care
Canada, the Canadian Liver Foundation and a number of hospitals.
Because he never went to university, he established scholarships
at 10 different universities. In 1999, he was granted the Order
of Canada and given an honorary doctorate by St. Francis Xavier
University in Antigonish, N.S.
Early retirement also gave him more time to enjoy a late-in-life
marriage. A bachelor until 56, he wed Nona
MacDONALD, director
of public relations for the University of Toronto. She soon discovered
he loved to cook. "I didn't cook much and I knew he loved to
cook, so, one day, we were talking about going on vacation and
I told him to take me some place where I had never been before
and he jokingly said, 'That's easy, let's go to the kitchen.'"
Bill HEASLIP was born on July 5, 1927, in Toronto. He died on
March 3, 2006, in Sarasota, Florida, of a stroke. He is survived
by his wife, Nona, and sister Betty. He was predeceased by his
parents and sisters Alice and Doris.

THORNTON,
Hugh
Richard
Loving and adored father, kind and devoted husband to Bardie,
Hugh passed away peacefully at home surrounded by the love of
his family on October 25, 2006 after a courageous battle with
pancreatic cancer. Born on February 4, 1929, in Woodstock, Ontario,
to Jessie Robertson and Percy Sanford
THORNTON, he was the youngest
of eight children. Love and appreciation of music and fine art
were always encouraged in the household by his mother, an accomplished
pianist, and at an early age Hugh began to show great promise
in drawing, illustrating and painting. He loved to talk about
his days growing up in a large family where late-night chats
would turn into early morning discussions of philosophy, science,
the arts, and politics. The eight children loved to play pranks
on each other, build water-glass orchestras and go-carts, read
together and play music. Being in a large family he learned to
assume responsibility early, and at age 11, he worked as a parcel
boy at Loblaws in order to buy his first bike while later he
took on summer jobs delivering ice and bread. The family moved
to Toronto in 1938 to the High Park area where Hugh attended
Keele St. Elementary School and Humberside Collegiate. At school
he excelled in art, music, and literature. He met the love of
his life, Barbara
BRIGHAM, when she was 15 and he 16, and four
years later, they were married while Hugh was attending the Ontario
College of Art in the fine art program. He switched into the
commercial program when he realized he would need to be able
to support a family. During college, Hugh worked steady nights
at Goodyear and Stelco, paying for all of his tuition. He won
two scholarships and a bursary before he graduated in 1951 and
continued to work at Goodyear upon graduation. Subsequently he
was employed at Rabjohn Illustrators and after 1 year there,
he went to Avro Aircraft where he quickly rose to department
head. In 1955, after 3 years of top-secret illustration on the
Arrow aircraft program, Hugh left to start his business in partnership
as Industrial Art and Publicity Associates which subsequently
became Thornton Hall Limited. As an employer, he was very fair
and many times in the early days had to finance the payroll unbeknownst
to his employees. Usually Hugh would be the last one to close
the door, well into the early morning hours, as he built a successful
career as illustrator, photographer, artist, copywriter, designer,
and typographer. He was a rare one-stop talent that many envied
and yet he was the most unassuming man to all who knew him. During
the rare moments when he would take time for himself, he would
relax with reading or playing Mendelssohn, Chopin, Beethoven
and Bach piano pieces. Hugh and Bardie had to be thrifty in the
early years, seldom living beyond their means, but still managing
to always throw great parties with their many Friends and relatives.
The door was always open at the Thornton household, laughter
abounded, and visiting out-of-town relatives were never expected
to stay in a hotel. In 1960, they bought a cottage on Buckhorn
Lake and many happy weekends were spent fishing, water-skiing
and boating. After Buckhorn was sold, they bought a cottage on
Boshkung Lake north of Minden, Ontario, where Hugh loved to walk
in the country with his artist's pad and camera in hand, creating
ideas and sketches for some his most beautifully realized landscape
paintings. Hugh provided a wonderful home in Don Mills for his
wife and children, and loved to go on vacation with their Friends
to sunny climes during the winters. He and Bardie instilled in
their children strong family values of honesty, integrity, humility,
and grace. Hugh was delighted to engage in conversation with
his children and extended family and to be taken to task by his
kids in discussions on politics or philosophy. The bantering
and humour that went on around the table, even right up until
the days before his passing, will be remembered and cherished
by them forever. He was very proud of his children and their
spouses and his adored grandchildren. Hugh was most proud of
his accomplishments that occurred in his post-retirement years
when he returned to painting. His many beautiful works of art
adorn the halls of the family home, and the homes of Friends.
He was eternally grateful to the Minden Hills Cultural Centre
where his works were regularly shown each summer at the Agnes
Jamieson Gallery and where, just in October, he was awarded 1st place
in the People's Choice Award at the Members Show. He leaves his
beloved wife of 56 years, Barbara
BRIGHAM, and their loving children
David LIVINGSTONE
(Paula
ZINOVICH) of Victoria, British Columbia,
Gerry THORNTON
(Stephen
