My heart was crushed and sore

In tears I watched you sinking

And though my heart was breaking

You left behind some aching hearts
That love you most sincere
I never will forget you both.

ROWE,
Harold
Harold was born on Manitoulin Island December 21, 1921, son of
Ted and Lily
ROWE. He was later joined by a sister Edna and a
brother Wilbert.
In 1942 Harold joined the Canadian Army, Second Division landing
in France in 1944 to begin the fighting. He was wounded twice
during the war. His brother Wilbert was killed and is buried
in Holland. The war ended May 8, 1945, he arrived back in Canada,
November 27, 1945 and was finally discharged January 21, 1946.
He bought a truck and a small farm outside Little Current. On
February 21, 1950 he married Doreen
STRINGER. A son, Garry, was
born June 14, 1951 and Carol arrived September 1, 1952. In 1957
they moved to the 8th of Proton buying a farm from Lou
BENSON.
They bought milk cows, converted the barn adding a bulk tank
and began shipping milk. In 1967 they sold the farm and bought
the New Century Restaurant from John and Irene
MILLS.
Harold
started a job at the newly built factory Trim Trends, working
in the day time at the factory and then switching to washing
dishes at the restaurant in the evening. He continued at Trim
Trends until his retirement in 1986.
He took flying lessons from Carl
IRWIN and got his pilot's license
which had been a dream of his for years. He bought a two-seater
Cessna which he kept at Lorne
ACHESON's until they built their
present house, a hanger for the plane and a landing strip. He
attended many fly-ins, looked for lost cattle, flew back and
forth to the Manitoulin to visit his relatives and really enjoyed
flying.
They sold the restaurant in 1969 and in 1970 Greg joined the
family. Early '80s a boat replaced the plane and a trailer was
placed at Victoria Harbour where they spent many weekends fishing
and relaxing.
Harold had many hobbies. He loved to read, listen to music, and
watch horse racing on T.V. He was an avid bird watcher and had
many visitors at his feeders. He loved to travel and had taken
many trips to the American West, Canadian West, East coast and
Florida. He was overseas twice, once in 1984 with Doreen and
Carol and again in 2004 with Allan
SMITH. He visited Germany,
Holland, France Belgium, Luxembourg and England. While there
he visited his brother's grave and many other interesting places.
He took pride in his huge garden always trying to outsmart the
birds and keep them away from his strawberries. He had a passion
for teaching his children, their Friends and grandchildren to
love the sport of fishing, a tradition that hopefully they will
pass on to their children. Some days his line never got in the
water as he was too busy taking off sunfish and small bass for
everyone else. He went on many fishing trips with his sons and
grand_sons. He loved to fish and even liked it better if he caught
something. He was also a very good cook and was always looking
for new recipes to try. You could always count on there being
cookies, squares, donuts around for the grandchildren and the
candy dish was always full.
He was a great Dad supporting and helping his children. He built
his own home and helped build Garry's and Greg's homes. He was
always there to answer any questions and offer advice. He spent
endless hours helping at Lorne and Carol's farm, ploughing, cultivating,
baling, drawing grain, fixing things and doing any little jobs
that needed to be done. His truck could be seen daily spring
and fall heading towards the farm. He was a cherished and special
grandfather who was always there whether it be to babysit, or
teach them to ride their first bike, or read a story or remove
that sunfish from their hook. There were always some treats somewhere
in the house for the grandchildren when they popped in after
school.
Harold passed away peacefully at home on April 13, 2006, and
will be sadly missed but lovingly remembered by his wife Doreen,
son Gary and Barb, daughter Carol and Lorne, son Greg and Kelly,
his grandchildren Don and Stacy
ROWE,
Theresa and Sandy
YOUNG,
Janette, Denise, Lori, Andrew, Kati
RIDDELL, Connor and Meghan
ROWE and great-grandchildren Avery, Jared and Jordon
ROWE and
Carter and Abigail
YOUNG.
To live in the hearts we leave behind, is not to die.

curler and a Lifetime Member of the Forest Curling Club. In later
years he was a great spectator, especially whenever Dale and
Julie played. Norm lived a very full life. Beneath the often

grandchildren and step-grandchildren can attest. He had many
Friends and was a good husband and father. He did a lot of good
in the community that no one ever new about. Resting at the Ronn

SCHEEL,
Dorothy
Florence
(KNOTT)
Of Wilson Avenue, Delhi passed away peacefully at the London
H.S.C., Victoria Hospital on Sunday, February 26, 2006 in her
79th year. Dorothy was a loving partner and wife for 62 years.
She was born in Dorchester and married at 17. In childhood, she
is remembered as the one always on the go and 78 years later
it was still challenging to keep up to her. Dorothy was a devoted
and loving mother to Jan and Michael who learned the meaning
of determination, fun and integrity. She was a very proud grandmother
of Abby and Kate, and was always delighted by their visits. To
Dorothy's many dear Friends, her sense of fun and humour, her
loyalty, common sense and honesty were always appreciated. With
her sharp mind, intelligence, keen sense of business and financial
affairs, she and Mike were successful in all they endeavoured.
Her love of life showed up on the dance floor, playing a vigorous
game of cribbage or euchre, creating a beautiful flower garden,
spending a weekend with her sister Audrey, celebrating special
occasions with joy, reading a favourite new book, creating delicious
meals, spending time alone or taking a drive to Port Dover for
a foot long hot dog and some people watching. After retirement
one of Dorothy and Mike's favourite things was to jump into the
car and go for a drive. It didn't matter where or for how long.
But you can be sure it would always be Dorothy in the driver's
seat! Throughout her 78 years, Dorothy touched the lives and
hearts of many. She was deeply loved and will be deeply missed.

Teresa "
The▲▼
Dash" (1939-2005)
"From beginning to end, what matters most is the dash"
The dash represents all the time that you spent on earth and
now only those who loved you know what that line is worth. It
matters not, how much we own; the cars… the house… the cash,
what matters is how we live and love and how we spend our dash.
So think about this long and hard… Are there things you'd like
to change For you never know how much time is left, that can
still be rearranged. If we could just slow down enough to consider
what's true and real, and always try to understand the way other
people feel, and be less quick to anger, and show appreciation
more, and love the people in our lives like we've never loved
before. If we treat each other with respect, and more often wear
a smile… Remembering that this special dash might only last a
little while.
Mom, you always wore a smile and taught us so much.
We love and miss you Love always Terry, Darrell, Mat, Chris and
Damian.

POWELL,
Margaret▼
Pearl▼
(BABCOCK)
A teller of tales, a dreamer of dreams.
A fountain of fashion, a planner of schemes.
Could this be one person You think it untrue
Just look again dear, for that person was you!
Look back on your life -- take stock of the years,
And all you accomplished through laughter and tears.
Remember the children, how they took your hand
Remember the stories -- adventures you planned
How you nursed us in sickness and shared in our pain,
No thought of reward -- no question of gain.
You were a lady of grace, you stood out in a crowd,
Just count your achievements -- be thankful and proud!
You always looked to the future -- so much to be done,
The joys to be conquered -- love to be won!
Kept building your bridges -- planning those schemes,
Remember that you were our weaver of dreams.

Celebration of a life
Superlative after heartfelt superlative was used yesterday to
describe the life and legacies of
TAILOR/TAYLOR.
By Norman DE
BONO and Jonathan
SHER, Free Press Reporters, Mon.,
June 19, 2006
To Cal STILLER, it seemed strangely appropriate that J. Allyn
TAILOR/TAYLOR passed away on Father's Day weekend.
After all, it's as though London, its business and philanthropic
communities, lost their father figure, he said yesterday.
"The community really looked to him as their father. He was the
de facto boss of the business community," said
STILLER, a pioneering
transplant surgeon here.
"He did not wield that, but it is the way we saw him. "
TAILOR/TAYLOR, 99, died Saturday afternoon. Those paying tribute yesterday
described a business giant who gave tirelessly to the community
and gently pushed people to be better.
Mr. T., as many Friends called him, was a relentless optimist,
said a Londoner who read to him several times a week.
Margi NASH said
TAILOR/TAYLOR's recent favourites included Jessie's
Journey and Unusual Heroes: Canada's Prime Ministers and Fathers
of Confederation.
His optimism was exemplified in his response whenever anyone
asked how he was doing. "His answer was always one of two things,"
NASH said. 'Never better' or 'Better now that you're here.'"
When NASH visited
TAILOR/TAYLOR
Friday, he was too weak to speak. Even
so, when NASH asked him how he was, he mouthed, "Never better."
"A joy, a blessing and a privilege -- that's what it meant knowing
him," NASH said through tears.
While he deserved the nickname "Mr. London," he was also a patriotic
Canadian, hosting a Canada Day party every year in his backyard.
Daughter Lynn
FLEMING/FLEMMING recalled how, in the 1950s, while he was
a Canada Trust executive,
TAILOR/TAYLOR would go to the basement at
Christmas to share a drink with the maintenance workers.
"He didn't care who you were," said
FLEMING/FLEMMING. "He shopped at the
A and P and bought Jane Parker pies for half-price. He would say,
'I am just a simple Prairie boy.' "
Don SMITH, founder of EllisDon Construction, said,He" left us
an example and so many wonderful people have learned from him."
Equally at ease in the worlds of community, philanthropy and
business, TAILOR/TAYLOR helped found the London Community Foundation,
just as he laid the groundwork for the Robarts Research Institute
and helped lead so many businesses by serving on their boards.
"He was a mentor to me,"
SMITH said. "I used to watch what he
did and tried to follow his example. Often when I had to make
a decision I thought, what would
TAILOR/TAYLOR do? He was great help
and guidance."
University of Western Ontario president Paul
DAVENPORT described
TAILOR/TAYLOR as "one of the great builders of postwar London."
TAILOR/TAYLOR, who served as University of Western Ontario chancellor,
brought thousands of jobs to the city by helping lay the building
blocks for a burgeoning business community. He was a lifelong
proponent of education and research,
DAVENPORT said.
"In addition to all his other accomplishments, J. Allyn was also
a wonderful friend to so many people in this city. He could light
up a room just by walking into it."
TAILOR/TAYLOR was also the only Londoner ever to head the national and
provincial chambers of commerce simultaneously more than 35 years
ago, said Gerry
MacARTNEY, general manager of the London Chamber
of Commerce.
"(It) is an inspiration to young leaders everywhere to look at
a man like him. He led in a kind and calm way. Many barons of
industry were tyrants, but
TAILOR/TAYLOR had such a gentle approach.
He was soft-spoken, but very focused."
Bill BRADY, who served on several boards with
TAILOR/TAYLOR, said his
long-time friend pushed people to become better than they thought
they could be. Everyone who had any contact with
TAILOR/TAYLOR learned
from his example how to serve others,
BRADY said.
STILLER added that others always looked to
TAILOR/TAYLOR as a man with
measured, solid ideas. "He was always quizzing me, asking me
what was happening. He was always saying 'Tell me, tell me,'
said STILLER.
"He had integrity with feet-on-the-ground pragmatism. He was
a wise, wise man."
The first time Britta
WINTHER spoke to
TAILOR/TAYLOR, she was afraid
he might throttle her. It was 1998 and
TAILOR/TAYLOR had been a guest
at the London Convention Centre to hear Prime Minister Jean Chretien
at a fundraiser. A heavy back-drop curtain fell eight metres
and TAILOR/TAYLOR disappeared beneath it.
WINTHER, who worked at the convention centre, phoned
TAILOR/TAYLOR next
day and braced herself. "As much as I tried to apologize, he
would have none of it," she recalled.
Struck by his kindness,
WINTHER invited him to lunch and the
two struck up a Friendship.
"He was a modest, humble man who always wanted to talk about
you. He made you feel great about yourself," she said.
Years before Fred
GOSNELL became London's mayor, he was an unknown
businessperson trying to get a start when he called
TAILOR/TAYLOR's
office and asked if they could meet.
TAILOR/TAYLOR saw him that very day,
GOSNELL's son, Deputy Mayor Tom
GOSNELL recalled.
"He treated my father the same as when he didn't even know him
as he did when he was mayor.
GOSNELL said
TAILOR/TAYLOR "made everyone in a room feel so important.
He made us want to do so much more. And only after you left the
room did you realize he had been the driving force."
TAILOR/TAYLOR was the last of a great generation of men that included
publisher Walter Blackburn and brain surgeon Charles Drake,
GOSNELL
said. "They're a generation that left a legacy."
For the funeral, "we want to celebrate a life," said
FLEMING/FLEMMING.
"It will be a family-focus only. He has had so many accolades,
it is appropriate this be just a family service."
Funeral Arrangements
Visitation is at James A. Harris Funeral Home Wednesday from
2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. The service will take place
at Saint_John the Evangelist Church at 280 Saint_James St. (at Wellington
Street) Thursday at 11 a.m.
Anecdotes and quotes about and by J. Allyn
TAILOR/TAYLOR
TAILOR/TAYLOR once said if he could change one moment of his life, it
would be his birthdate. Until recently, he played weekly games
of bridge, golf and billiards. "I'm enjoying life," he said,
adding he would take as much of it as he could get.
"You should learn from any job you have, not only about human
nature, but also about the basic principles of how to conduct
yourself in the business world."
Reflecting on his favourite summer job, at a Winnipeg golf course
in the 1920s
Mr. London is one name by which he was known. Many of London's
power people called him Mr.
TAILOR/TAYLOR out of respect or Mr. T. out
of affection. His Friends called him Allyn.
"I'm keenly aware of my own shortcomings. Do we have time to
discuss them? No."
Long after retirement and into planning for the Robarts Research
Institute, he would still convene meetings for 7: 30 a.m. When
long-time (and younger) friend Bill
BRADY protested,
TAILOR/TAYLOR said,
"Perhaps when I get to be your age, I'll want to sleep in, too."
"My father died at the age of 44 from a leaking (heart) valve,
which… in those days was beyond medical science to deal with.
Today (fixing it) is like filling a tooth, almost."
Reflecting on the genesis of his passion for funding medical
research
TAILOR/TAYLOR called
BRADY a few years ago to tell him a move was afoot
to rename the Robarts Research Institute as the Queen Mother
Elizabeth Research Institute. When
BRADY protested,
TAILOR/TAYLOR said:
"April Fool's" and hung up.
When the historic TD Canada Trust building at Wellington and
Dundas streets was named in his honour,
TAILOR/TAYLOR cadged a kiss
from Mayor Anne Marie
DECICCO -- then five more kisses so the
photographers could get it just right.

Don't think of him as gone away,
His journey's just begun.
Life holds so many facets,
This Earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting,
From the sorrows and the tears,
In a place of warmth and comfort,
Where there are no days and years.
Think how he must be wishing,
That we could know today,
How nothing but our sadness,
Can really pass away.
And think of him as living,
In the hearts of those he touched,
For nothing loved is ever lost,
And he was loved so much.

she worked until her retirement in 1977. Aunt Mary enjoyed her
life filling it with travels, bridge club, her gardens, feeding
the birds and spending time with her family. Mary was a member
of Trinity Anglican Church. She was a fiercely independent lady
and this enabled her to stay in her own home until now. Survived

HODGES,
Kathleen▼ (née
McCREIGHT)
Passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 12, 2006, at the
age of 95, after a long life brimming with love and laughter.
Kathleen was born November 6, 1910 near Little Rapids, Ontario,
and spent a happy childhood on the family homestead outside of
Thessalon and
in Owen Sound. She moved to Toronto during the
Depression, and she and her husband William settled in Weston,
where Kathleen created a home filled with love for their sons.
She worked tirelessly and with quiet determination to provide
her beloved boys with every possible opportunity in life. After
a fulfilling career at Weston Public Library, Kathleen retired
to Midland, where she nurtured a beautiful garden and many beautiful
Friendships. Later in life she moved to Collingwood's Sunset
Village to be nearer her family, and during her years there continued
to charm all those who met her. She will be remembered by her
special Friends as a warm, giving soul who was enormously proud
of her family and was always happy to share stories and memories
over a cup of tea. Kathleen is predeceased by her husband William
and her cherished elder son Bill. She is remembered as a wonderful
mother by her son Ron and his wife Terri, and by her beloved
daughter-in-law Ruth. She was a doting and adored Grandma to
granddaughters Kim, Karen, and Alison, and to grand_son Geoffrey,
and a very loving GG (that's Great Grandma) to Samantha and Nicholas.
The family wishes to thank all Kathleen's Friends and companions
who cared for her and enriched her life at Sunset Village, including
Bernie, Molly, Darlene and Tom, Connie, and Donna. Special thanks
to the wonderful team at Leisureworld Creedan Valley in Creemore,
and to Doctors
SMITH and
NICHOLS and the nursing staff at Collingwood
General and Marine Hospital. A family graveside service was held
Monday, October 16, 2006, at Mt. Pleasant Cemetery in Toronto.

SMITH,
Eileen▲▼
Frances▲▼ (née
COOPER)
By Joan NOTENBOOM and Peter
NOTENBOOM,
Page
A20
Mother, grandmother, great-grandmother. Born October 12, 1919
in Dryden, Ontario Died September 11, 2005 in Kenora, Ontario,
of cancer, aged 85.
In 1935, in small town Ontario, it was almost unheard of for
a woman to drive a car. Eileen's father, Frank
COOPER, however,
insisted that she learn to drive as soon as she turned 16 and
taught her in his Model A Ford. With a driver's licence came
a sense of independence, and it was a quiet, self-reliant independence
that defined the rest of Eileen's life.
Eileen left high school two months shy of graduation to work
in Dryden's general store. She met James
SMITH when she was 20.
Her parents did not approve of their marrying as he was Catholic
and she was Anglican, so the two eloped in 1940. Jim and Eileen
had three children, two boys and a girl. The family left Dryden
in 1958 and headed west to Kenora, where they opened Smith's
Grocery. The store soon became a staple in the community, popular
for their quality meats, homemade sausages and the special holiday
tradition: Eileen's homemade Christmas pork pies.
As with any small family business, running Smith's Grocery meant
long hours and a lot of hard work.. Eileen helped Jim in the
store, all the while looking after the house and the three children.
When Jim died unexpectedly of a heart attack at 58, Eileen kept
the business going for four more years, eventually selling it
to her son in 1975. She continued to work part-time in the store
for another 14 years, finally retiring in 1989.
In her later years, Eileen made up for her early lack of vacations,
taking the time to enjoy life by travelling extensively. In November,
1977, Eileen and her 88-year-old mother flew to Churchill, Manitoba,
to visit her daughter and family. Being an adventurous person,
she was easily persuaded to view the polar bears feeding at the
local garbage dump as well as take a flight in a two-seater airplane
to view other northern wildlife.
In March of 1979 Eileen also travelled to the high arctic settlement
of Chesterfield Inlet, where her daughter's family lived. While
there she had the unique opportunity to crawl into and explore
an igloo made by an Inuit elder.
As a senior, she loved playing the slots at the casinos and was
more often lucky than not. A voracious reader, Eileen consumed
several books a week. To keep her mind active, she plowed through
crossword puzzle books and was a faithful fan of Jeopardy, yelling
out the answers to the questions from her chair in the corner.
Two other passions were watching The Weather Network and enjoying
a good hockey game on Saturday night.
She learnt to knit at a young age, and helped her mother provide
the Red Cross with countless pairs of warm socks for the soldiers
in the Second World War. Later in life, she picked up her knitting
needles once again and began supplying the needy with hats, scarves,
mittens and socks. Her family and Friends also became grateful
recipients of her knitted items.
In 1990 she purchased her first brand new car: a red Ford Escort.
Ever thrifty, she would never consider paying for needless extra
luxuries such as power steering or automatic transmission. Her
only concession was an a.m. radio -- but only because it had
already been installed.
When Eileen learned that she had cancer, she took the news in
her usual no-nonsense manner, never shedding a tear, even through
radiation and chemo treatments. She lived on her own until a
week before her death, when the cancer finally forced her into
the hospital. Eileen was a steady support for her children, a
wealth of wisdom, a good listener, a warm heart and above all,
the best of Moms.
Joan is Eileen's daughter and Peter her son-in-law.

Born May 22, 1922, in Edmonton, Alberta, and predeceased by his
parents Jack and Bessie, as well as his only brother, Ken. Bob
leaves to mourn, his dear wife of 61 years, Margaret Georgena
SMITH of Queenston, Ontario, his sister-in-law Lois
TORRANCE
and family, extended families and Friends throughout Canada and
the U.S.A. Active as a youth in sports, volunteerism, leadership
and wartime service, Bob prepared for his distinguished Young
Men's Christian Association career with a B.Comm. and B.S.W.
(U of A) and M.S.W. (University of British Columbia). There followed
Y postings in West Vancouver, Portland, Oregon, and the National
Young Men's Christian Association, Toronto. After moving to Queenston,
Ontario in 1974, he completed his PhD through the University
of Toronto and Ontario Institute for Studies in Education. He
continued after retirement to research and publish the National
Young Men's Christian Association History Project - 1950 to 1984,
and to serve on the Y's National Archives Committee. Bob's remarkable
Y career as a builder of bridges and creator of linkages with
whomever he met saw this quiet, self-effacing, humourous man,
conferred with Companion of the Fellowship of Honour (Young Men's
Christian Association, 1993). His lifelong example of faith in
action as a member, activist, and lay person in the United Church
of Canada, saw him build Friendships and liaisons while working
and travelling in Canada, the United States, Europe, Russia and
the middle east -- often remembering those he met with a snapshot
memento or sharing a humbug from his candy pouch. St. Stephen's
College, Edmonton, awarded Bob the D.D. Honouris Causa, in 1994.
Bob worked to create change and move the world to a more inclusive
society that honoured all. He died Saturday, April 15, 2006.
The family thanks Doctor David Reimer, and staff at Chateau Gardens,
Niagara-on-the-Lake, for the special care he received there,
and is especially grateful for the compassion and support of
Queenston neighbours, the Duc-Trianos and the Barratts. A celebration
of Bob's life will be held in the Addison Hall, beside Saint Mark's
Anglican Church, 41 Byron Street, Niagara-on-the-Lake, on Thursday,
April 27, 2006, at 11 a.m. If desired, remembrances may be made
to the Stephen Lewis Foundation, Grandmother to Grandmother Fund
(Africa), 260 Spadina, Suite 501, Toronto, Ontario M5T 2E4.

Born in 1916 in London, England, in her youth she was an outstanding
athlete. She was a Southern England diving champion and member
of Hampstead's Mermaid Club, home to Olympic class swimming and
diving athletes. She was ranked for the British Olympic Diving
Team; however, the cancellation of the Olympic Games due to World
War 2 ended her active involvement in competitive aquatic sports.
She attended Barrett Street School as a scholarship student.
Eileen married Jack
BATTEN In 1939. After the birth of their
two sons, they immigrated to Canada in the 1950's, settling in
Beloeil, Quebec. Jack died in 1975. The following year she married
Elwyn JONES, and moved to Kingston, Ontario. Elwyn and Eileen
enjoyed a wonderful life together in Kingston, and made many
Friends through their involvement in cultural activities, organ,
choral music, and theatre. They shared a keen love of the waters
of the Bay of Quinte and Lake Ontario, and spent many hours exploring
the coastline and harbours. After the death of Elwyn in 1997,
Eileen remained for a time in Kingston. She moved to Toronto
in 2003 to be near family members. In failing health for some
time, she died peacefully on Thursday, April 26th, with family
at her side. She is predeceased by two sisters, Marjorie and
Jessie. She is survived and sadly missed by her sister Mabel

RAMPLEE-
SMITH,
Colin
Martin
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Colin,
whose active, gregarious and gracious view on life was foreshortened
by Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. He was in his 79th year. Beloved
husband of Christine (Chris)
STEWARD/STEWART/STUART and loving father to Sarah
(Clark) and his step-daughters, Lynne (Stuart) and Paula (Edgar).
Colin's loss to our individual lives is too painful to quantify.
Poppa/Grandpa to eight grandchildren he was a Very Important
Person. Magic fixer-upper of everything, he was our walking encyclopedia
and next to indispensable. His in-laws, the Harley family, lovingly
embraced this special man who earned their high esteem. A professional
engineer, Colin graduated with honours from Cambridge University
in 1951. His varied career spanned in diversity from the Avro
Arrow aircraft to managing the installation of sophisticated
technical equipment which enabled Canada's ice observers to help
ships navigate ice congested waters from the Great Lakes to the
high Arctic. Colin was one of the pioneers in a new era of monitoring
sea ice in Canada and the equipment eventually found it's way
into the modern satellite systems of today. He will be missed
by his many good Friends of long standing who shared his life-long
love of sports, academia and social pursuits. Former Environment
Canada colleagues, M.S. Society volunteers/personnel and members
of the U of T, Academy for Lifelong Learning also counted among
his many interests and Friends. He spent much of his last three
plus years at Scarborough Grace Hospital receiving very good
care from super nurses who made his life bearable. Thanks too
to the doctors and the Community Care Access Centre who showed
much compassion by allowing Colin to spend some quality time
at home, a priceless gift to him. A special thanks to the respiratory
technicians who were constantly there for us. Cremation has taken
place. A Memorial Service and reception in celebration of Colin's
life will be held on Tuesday, May 16, 2006 at 1: 00 p.m. in the
chapel of Jerrett Funeral Home, 6191 Yonge Street, North York
(2 lights south of Steeles). In lieu of flowers donations are
encouraged in Colin's name to be directed specifically to the

PICKFORD,
Mary, 1979 -- Died This Day
Actor-producer born Gladys Louise
SMITH in Toronto on April 9,
Born near what is now Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children, she
was baptized Gladys to please relatives. Her father was an alcoholic
who abandoned his family in 1895 and died soon after. Her mother
made a living as a seamstress and took in boarders. When Gladys
was 7, a lodger persuaded her mother that the girl try for a
part at the Princess Theatre on King Street, three blocks east
of the present Princess of Wales theatre. Consequently, she played
many roles and became a popular local child actress. She was
soon joined by three siblings and the family troupe went on tour.
In 1909, fed up with the theatre life after one Broadway success
as Mary PICKFORD, she reluctantly auditioned for a silent movie,
then seen as a lowly art form. She enjoyed the experience and
went on to such a successful career that she is widely regarded
as the first female film star. Unable to make the transition
to talkies and seriously typecast, she retired from acting in
1933 and chose to go fully into producing. In 1919, she co-founded
United Artists with Charles Chaplin, Douglas Fairbanks and D.W.
Griffith. Before her death, she petitioned Ottawa to restore
her Canadian citizenship which she believed she had lost. As
it turned out, she probably never lost her status and Ottawa
obliging declared her a dual citizen.

BOYD,
Jack
Ross
Peacefully at Credit Valley Hospital, in his 83rd year, Jack
passed away on Wednesday, June 21, 2006. He will be sadly missed
by Mae (SMITH) his "Child bride" for the past 54 years, his three
children Peter (Lorraine,) Mary-Jane
MEDDICK
(Scott,)
Steven
(Kathy) and nephew Kevin
O'DONNELL
(Cheryl.) He was the proud
"Papa" of Kendra, Adam, Evan, Brock, Myles, Taylor, Christopher
and Darcy, as well as Great-Uncle to Duncan and Liam. The youngest
of Abel and Rachel
BOYD's ten children, he was raised in the
Annex area of Toronto. A Star athlete at Harbord Collegiate,
he went on to serve Canada during World War 2 in the Army and
the Air Force. Following the service he obtained his B.Ph.E at
University of Toronto which led to his career in education. He
taught at Long Branch, New Toronto, Soest (Germany), Thistletown
and retired as the Principal at Vincent Massey Collegiate. His
encore was as Principal at St. Albert's Collegiate, a private
school. A long time member of Caledon Ski Club and
an East Bay
cottager, Jack loved life and introduced the joys of cottaging
and skiing to many. His sense of humour was legendary, his last
witticism: "Jack is dead, pontoon boat for sale." The family
would like to thank the many health care professionals who cared
for him. Jack will be cremated and a private service will be
held later in Muskoka. Those who wish to help commemorate Jack's
contributions and impact to all our lives are invited to join
his family on Sunday, June 25th at Caledon Ski Club's West Hill

Don grew up in Saint John, New Brunswick with his big brother
Bill and his sister Jean. He served overseas in World War 2 in
the infantry with the Carlton and York Regiment. He fought courageously
in Italy and North-West Europe and was highly decorated for his
valour and achievements, receiving the Military Cross as platoon
commander and the Bar to the Military Cross as company commander,
both in 1944. Just before the end of the War, at the age of 23,
while flying to liberate Holland, Major
SMITH lost his right
leg below the knee and the sight in one eye. After the War, back
in Saint John, Donald met Constance
MURRAY and proposed to her
on Valentine's Day 1946. Later that year, they were married and
Donald and Connie moved to Montreal where Don attended medical
school at McGill University. Don specialized in Internal Medicine,
and then did a residency in London, England. In 1957, Don and
Connie moved to Oshawa, Ontario where Don accepted a position
at the Oshawa Clinic. Don and Connie promptly proceeded to have
their four children. Donald practiced Internal Medicine in Oshawa
for 34 years and served for a period as Chief of the Department
of Internal Medicine at the Oshawa General Hospital (now Lakeridge
Health Oshawa). In the early 1980's he established the first
pulmonary function lab and service at the hospital. He retired
in 1990 due to his own cardiac health problems. His beloved Connie
passed away in 1998, and he missed her greatly. But he finished
his days in his family home, which was very dear to him. Fittingly,
Don passed away in the coronary care unit at the hospital where
he spent so much time helping so many other people. Donald is

Osborne COLSON,
Skating
Coach (1916-2006)
Eccentric and prickly, the 'Jurassic Park' of skating won prewar
national titles, directed Barbara Ann Scott's professional tour
and coached a parade of top-notch competitors
By Beverley
SMITH,
Page S7
Toronto -- Osborne
COLSON was the last of an era, an old figure-skating
world of blueblood families, of impeccable manners and proper
etiquette. "He stood alone in an era of figure skating that has
long gone," said Toller
CRANSTON. "He was the Jurassic Park of
the Barbara Ann
SCOTT era."
Mr. COLSON's father, Henry, was one of the founders of the Toronto
Cricket Skating and Curling Club, an institution that was like
mecca for the skater who won the 1936 and 1937 Canadian men's
championships.
His cousin, Cecil
SMITH, finished second to Sonja Henie at the
1930 world championship. Mr.
COLSON was a walking history book
of figure skating. He lived it. He met Ms. Henie at a skating
show in Toronto. He directed and choreographed Barbara Ann
SCOTT's
Canadian professional tour in the early 1950s. He took Donald
JACKSON under his wing when he became a professional skater during
the 1960s. "His great accomplishment was producing some of the
most unique skaters in history," Mr.
CRANSTON said. "He moulded
the minds of splendidly artistic people who went on to even greater
heights than he."
All this from a Toronto boy, who joined the Dominion Bank in
1935 as the youngest teller in its history. According to a Toronto
Cricket Club history book, "both bank and his father thought
Osborne was a good prospect for promotion with an ideal future
in finance."
Mr. COLSON earned $32 a week. He took a temporary leave of absence
when he landed a $500-a-week, 20-week contract as the star of
Ice Follies. He never returned.
Through his Ice Follies adventure, he met and worked with Joan
Crawford and Jimmy Stewart. Later, he was introduced to stars
such as Boris Karloff, Mickey Rooney, Ronald Reagan and Judy
Garland.
He was also one of the true eccentrics of the sport. Mr.
COLSON
rarely invited anyone to his Toronto apartment, not even his
60-year friend, Ellen
BURKA, who had been Mr.
CRANSTON's coach.
He rarely let anyone inside his private life, but then maybe
he was "a sphinx without a secret," Mr.
CRANSTON said.
Ms. BURKA said skating was his life. He went to every little
competition. He'd drive all over the city and teach at six different
rinks every day until, at 75, he finally settled at the cricket
club. For all that, he still worked at different rinks. This
was risky business, because he was widely known as a rather erratic
driver.
Except for his red cap, Mr.
COLSON dressed conservatively. Mr.
CRANSTON,
however, believes he really wanted to be rather baroque. "He
was always after my clothes. Many, many times I gave him things
that he liked.
COLSON didn't quite have the guts to be flamboyant,
yet he admired it in others. He always wanted my coats."
Once, when Mr.
COLSON and Ms.
BURKA visited Mr.
CRANSTON at his
Toronto home, the coach took one look at the skating outfits
in a closet, and began to try them on. "They were all his crazy
costumes from the '70s -- all glitter," Ms.
BURKA said.
He tried on a turquoise number, the most glittery of them all,
waltzed into the room and began to dance. "We had a party," she
said, laughing.
He had lots of frank opinions on many subjects. It was not something
he developed in later life. The legendary coach Gus
LUSSI taught
Mr. COLSON for six years and once said: "He was a very well-behaved
child with good discipline, although he was rather an opinionated
boy. He had unique views and ideas about everything."
It's no surprise that Mr.
CRANSTON calls him "madly eccentric."
But he adds that the coach was really quite funny "as long as
you were out of range." He could be prickly. Ms.
BURKA calls
him mean. Mr.
CRANSTON refers to him as the "red-hot stinger."
People feared him, wondering if they'd be next. Few escaped.
"At any second of the day or night, he could stick you with a
[verbal] sword that would leave you flat on the ground," Mr.
CRANSTON
said. "One might say he was difficult."
Ms. BURKA referred to him as her "best friend and loving enemy."
"Everybody knew it. I got used to it," she said. "In the beginning,
he would call me the most horrible names. I talked back to him,
then we had a fight. Then, of course, we didn't look at each
other and sat in the coffee shop back to back."
One of these fights lasted six months, another three months.
Ms. BURKA also knew how to push his buttons. When she saw he
was in a bad mood, she'd provoke him further. "Did I ever get
it."
At the very least, Mr.
COLSON kept her on her toes, she said.
She always arrived at the rink well dressed with her hair perfectly
coiffed, because if she didn't, "I got hell."
Finally, about 15 years ago, Mr.
COLSON approached Ms.
BURKA
and told her: "Look, I think we are a little bit too old for
this. Let's face each other again."
Obviously, he was one of a kind. "There can never be anything
like him again," Mr.
CRANSTON said. Yet, he always remained current.
Ms. BURKA said he had the mind of a 25-year-old. And he had a
Genghis Khan-like character that survived being booted out of
the cricket club by a group that didn't understand his significance,
according to Mr.
CRANSTON. "It was like taking the goldfish out
of the goldfish bowl. To a normal person, that would have been
the death rattle. But
COLSON rose from the ashes, went to the
Granite Club and spawned this Patrick
CHAN, this hot little thing."
The diamond in his crown was Sarah
KAWAHARA, who studied with
the coach when he set up the Banff Fine Arts skating school in
1960. Ms. KAWAHARA went on to become one of the great choreographers
in the sport, winning an Emmy for her work on the opening and
closing ceremonies at the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics and another
for Scott Hamilton's television special, Upside Down. She also
was responsible for Mr. Hamilton's successful skating career.
Ms. KAWAHARA, who took the red-eye flight last night from Los
Angeles so she could attend the funeral today, said of Mr.
COLSON:
"He formed me. Mr. C showed me the path, and he was also the
source of great inspiration and strength. He's responsible for
everything I've done in my life and career. He was not just a
skating teacher but a teacher of life."
Over the years, Ms.
KAWAHARA and Mr.
COLSON kept in touch at
least every two weeks. "It's very difficult to know that I can't
call him any more," she said.
Like Ms. KAWAHARA,
Mr.
COLSON's skaters always had "infinite
class," Mr.
CRANSTON said. "They were a cut above the others."
His work, Mr.
CRANSTON said, should have been on the Broadway
stage, not the ice rink. He's watched many
COLSON products in
skating shows and "my mouth would drop open," he said. "They
were so great. That kind of skater cannot ever exist again because
there aren't any other
COLSONs to produce it."
Mr. COLSON's last master project was Patrick
CHAN, a Toronto
skater who glides over the ice with great speed and wonderful
edges -- all
COLSON hallmarks. Mr.
COLSON predicted that Mr.
CHAN,
who is just 15, would make a splash at the 2010 Olympics and
that he'd try to stick around to guide him there.
But all was not well with Mr.
COLSON in the past year. He ended
up in hospital for nine weeks with an infection after a youngster
on a bicycle collided with him. Somehow, he talked his doctors
into letting him out of the hospital for a weekend. Instead of
resting, however, he headed to the Thornhill Summer Competition,
where he coached Mr.
CHAN from the boards. While he was in hospital,
he designed the young skater's outfit, too.
The intrepid Mr.
COLSON accompanied Mr.
CHAN when he finished
sixth at the world junior championship in Slovenia last March,
but he was so frail that three doctors treated him there.
In the spring, he was involved in a car accident, breaking his
collarbone and suffering head injuries. It proved to be his undoing.
He underwent two surgeries to remove blood clots from his brain
but then developed pneumonia.
The CHAN family was with him when he died. "Patrick said goodbye
very close to his ears and vowed to skate his best for him,"
said his mother, Karen. "He knew Patrick had landed his quad
toe."
It was a dismal day for Ms.
BURKA, who at first glance thought
Mr. COLSON an unusual character when she met him in 1952. For
years, she had worked while facing him from the other side of
the rink. They had a private joke, a pact in which they'd warn
each other if their mouths had opened too wide. "It hit me hard
that I cannot see him any more…. I had to cry.
"I enjoyed him all my life," she said. "It was fun to fight with
him and to talk with him. Everybody is so boring. It is a big
