PITHER,
William
Garth
(March 6, 1921-September 8, 2006)
A pioneer in the Cable television industry, Garth passed away
peacefully on September 8, 2006 in Vancouver. Predeceased by
his adoring wife Dorothy, he is survived by sons Ron, Barry,
and Gordon; grand_sons Colin and Lane; daughter-in-law Deborah
BROADLEY; sister Beth (Charles;) nephew Gerry
EDWARDS, and nieces
Linda MASON,
Sharon
FARNETTI, and Heather
PICCO. Garth's 'family'
was bigger than most, as his reach, influence, and genuine interest
always extended in the most caring of ways beyond the conventional
his sense of community and contribution were hallmarks of his
life. Garth's watchwords were 'Perseverance', 'Why not?', and
'Never dismiss anyone or anything'. Born in Winnipeg and growing
up in Saskatchewan and Vancouver, Garth began an electrical apprenticeship
at RCA in Toronto during 1938. In 1940 he enlisted in the
Royal Canadian Air Force and was seconded to the Royal Air Force
where his technical brilliance was applied to the then secret
U.K.-based radar initiative. Returning to Canada in 1945 he rejoined
RCA and married Dorothy
LOVELL in 1946. A chance television
repair job for Syd
WELSH lead to a three way partnership with
Bud SHEPARD in the early fifties pioneering Cable television
in Canada. His technical knowledge and skills were employed in
wiring the mountain communities of British Columbia, including
antenna sites surveyed on foot, by packhorse, boat, jeep, helicopter,
and snowmobile. By the 1960s, this visionary trio, and others
too many to mention, brought Cable television to the major urban
centres of Canada and around the world including the U.S.A.,
Ireland, and the United Kingdom, garnering the respect of governments
and business partners such as CBS. In 1971 the Welsh companies
formed Premier Cablevision Limited which was eventually purchased
by Rogers Cable of Toronto. Garth's 'retirement' in 1981 was
hardly ever that(!) as he offered his skills, enthusiasm, and
insight to support Rick Hansen's dream to wheel around the world
and such organizations as the British Columbia and Canadian Paraplegic
Associations, Vancouver Rotary and finally the Shaughnessy Stroke
Recovery Club. Golf both in Vancouver and Palm Springs was always
in the 'fore'. Always busy, always involved, always offering,
always there… Garth was always 'doing something' and led by example
to create and fix things rather than just offer words. A private
Celebration of Garth's life will be held amongst his dear family
and Friends. The family thanks the volunteers and members of
the Shaughnessy Stroke Recovery Club and other stroke support
services in Vancouver for enabling Garth to maintain his independence
since his wn stroke in 1996. Moreover, we give honourable mention
to the staff at Vancouver General Hospital, University of British
Columbia Health Sciences and Providence Health Care, in particular
staff at the Brock Fahrni facility for the wonderful care and
attention Garth received over the past year. In lieu of flowers,
donations should be made to one of Garth's proudest and greatest
achievements, the British Columbia Paraplegic Foundation (780…S.W.
Marine Drive, Vancouver, British Columbia V6P 5Y7) of which he
was a founding visionary over 30 years ago.

BABINETZ,
Jim
By Norma SHEPHERD,
Page
A18
Husband, father, athlete, gardener, teacher, crusader, dog-lover.
Born February 18, 1940, in Brantford, Ontario Died November 12,
2005, of natural causes, aged 65.
There's a story of a hardworking homeowner whose beautiful garden
prompts the parish priest to comment "My God, the Lord and yourself
are partners," to which the gardener responds, "That may be,
Father, but you should have seen this garden when the Lord had
it on his own."
I never got to see Jim
BABINETZ's multiple-awards-winning garden
when "the Lord had it on his own" nor did I meet Jim's children
before Jim and Jan, his wife of 41 years, had raised them to
be responsible, family-centred young men, capable of speaking
honestly and eloquently at their father's funeral. However, I
was privileged to enjoy Jim's gifts of home-grown horseradish
and feel somewhat guilty that an empty jar sits in my cupboard
despite Jim's request to return it.
Jim placed high expectations upon those around him, but they
were no loftier than the expectations he placed on himself. "I
don't do it to win," was his mantra when presented with a Civic
Rose or some such award. Jim worked in tune with the principles
of seedtime and harvest, well-acquainted with the natural rewards
of diligent sowing and reaping, nourishing, weeding, and pruning.
As a student Jim nurtured his love of outdoors through nine seasons
of recreation work as a park supervisor and his efforts on the
football field earned him a try-out with the Montreal Alouettes
in 1960. "He blends size, weight, and speed in a good combination,"
said the Oakville Black Knights coach who recommended the lineman
to Canadian Football League scouts.
In 1959, at 278 pounds, Jim was expelled from teachers college
for "gross obesity." He and 11 other students were considered
to be unsuitable role models. Jim challenged the Board of Education's
ruling, ultimately appealing to the office of the premier, who
ultimately instructed the health ministry to re-examine the case.
Toronto-area newspapers followed Jim's struggle, photographing
him almost daily under headlines that referred to the 19-year-old
with descriptions of his girth, such as "Too Big Jim." This,
despite Jim's large-boned physique and star four-sport athletic
career in high school.
Jim's struggle for permission to return to college provoked petitions,
inspired editorials and cartoons, and sparked a demand for the
education minister's resignation. Seven other provinces, the
ministry of transport, the army, navy, and air force -- even
The Times of London gave its support to this determined young
man. Jim's battle with his weight and the bureaucrats was profiled
in Time magazine.
Within a few weeks of his dismissal, Jim carried only 265 pounds
on his six-foot frame and had arranged for further weight loss
to be supervised by the Banting Institute. After passing a second
medical exam, Jim returned to the college that had dismissed
him and engaged tutors to help him recover lost ground. He graduated
two years later to begin his teaching career at a school in Oakville,
Ontario
Jim's public war with the establishment resulted in a system
change; potential students would now be medically evaluated prior
to the start of classes instead of midway through the first term.
But as one paper put it: "He had to lose to win."
Jim remained a serious person throughout his life but over the
years he welcomed five Springer Spaniels into his life and his
home.
Jim may have embraced teaching and sports for their structure
and discipline but I suspect Jim wanted a hand in helping precious
young lives reach their potential. After all, isn't that what
a good gardener does?
Norma is a friend of Jim
BABINETZ.

A friend to the average family
By Mike FUNSTON,
Staff
Reporter
Jackie SHEPHERD never backed down from a fight, whether it was
against slum landlords, political heavyweights or big supermarkets
gouging consumers.
SHEPHERD, who made headlines in the Toronto Star in the 1960s
as a consumer advocate and federal New Democratic Party candidate
in Toronto, succumbed to cancer at home, with her family by her
side, on Friday. She was 73.
"In Jackie's younger days, she was feisty and never backed down
from anybody. She passed those traits on to all of her children.
She's one of the strongest women I've ever known," said her son-in-law,
Bob MITCHELL, a reporter at the Star.
"She was my best friend," said her daughter, Kim
MITCHELL. "
She
was the glue that held our family together. Her daughters and
sons looked up to her. That's where we got our strength. She
was a courageous woman."
Jacqueline Lorraine
SHEPHERD (formerly
LEDREW) was born August
16, 1932, in Saint John's Newfoundland. She was an Oakville resident
for the past five years but had also lived in Toronto, Newmarket,
Mississauga and Calgary.
A member of the Women Against Soaring Prices, she resigned in
the fall of 1966 because the organization didn't want to take
the action she thought was necessary to protest against rising
food prices.
When she went on television and talked about how landlords wouldn't
rent to people with children, her phone started ringing off the
hook. Soon afterwards, in 1967, she formed the Consumers' Housewives
Union and convinced members to picket food warehouses.
SHEPHERD spearheaded a fight for better housing for low-income
residents and helped convince the government of the day to pass
legislation that banned landlords from refusing to rent to people
with children.
She organized a march of 34 mothers on Queen's Park in February
1967, with a petition to amend the Ontario Human Rights Code
to prevent landlords from barring children.
"You'd think children weren't even human,"
SHEPHERD told the
Star in 1967, after she had scanned the classified ads and found
167 apartments that wouldn't allow children.
While running the Consumers' Housewives Union out of her home
in an Ontario Housing unit,
SHEPHERD found time to raise her
family and work part-time as a waitress and cashier.
In 1967, she petitioned city hall and won a two-week stay of
eviction for 25 families from their Sylvan Court housing complex
in Scarborough. In 1968, she ran unsuccessfully for the New Democratic
Party in the federal riding of York West.
She also worked 27 years for the Ontario Jockey Club, primarily
at Woodbine and Greenwood racetracks.
SHEPHERD leaves her husband Jack, a Korean War veteran, five
children -- John, Kim, Jill, Joey and Megan -- 16 grandchildren
and three great-grandchildren. Another son, Richard, was murdered
on January 22, 1981. She also had 17 brothers and sisters.
Visitation will be at Oakview Funeral Home, 56 Lakeshore Rd.
W. in Oakville, today from 2 to 4 p.m. and 7 to 9 p.m., and tomorrow
from 9 to 11 a.m., with eulogies to follow in the chapel. Interment
