SPEISMAN, Mark Andrew
Born May 23, 1972 in Toronto and died suddenly January 18, 2002, at age 29, as the result of an undetected weakened artery.
Four years have passed since you have been gone
But the pain has not lessened and our lives will never be the same.
Celebrations come and go but are never the same without you.
Within just a few days your dreams of furthering, your career as a pilot, and your plans to marry were gone.
However, others were able to realize their dreams through your wish to have your organs donated.
Your Friends still talk of their loss of a caring and loyal friend
You were a wonderful son, an adored brother and terribly missed uncle.
Forever, Mom, Dad, your loving family and Friends

Our Only Daughter Suddenly November 15, 2004
I'll lend you for a little time a child of Mine" He said, For you to love the while she lives and mourn for when she's dead. I cannot promise she will stay, since all from earth return, But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn Now will you give her all your love, nor think the labour vain, Nor hate Me when I come to call to take her back again "Dear Lord, Thy will be done!" For all the joy Thy child shall bring, the risk of grief we'll run, We'll shelter her with tenderness, we'll love her while we may. And for the happiness we've known, forever grateful stay; But shall the angels call for her much sooner than we've planned, We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand. A memorial prayer was said for Nicole at St. Pauls Anglican Church in Toronto, where she was christened by the Reverend R.P. DANN. Butterflies are free to fly!

Man, 39, charged in wife's death
Body found in Markham garage
In Brampton, man shot and killed
By Stan JOSEY, Staff Reporter
Police in Peel and York regions are investigating two homicides over the weekend.
In York, police have charged a Markham man after his wife's body was found in the garage of their home on Kruger Rd. shortly after 9 a.m. Saturday.
Sugirthanraj KAILAYAPILLAI, 39, is charged with second-degree murder in the death of his wife, Thayalini SUBRAMANIAM, 31.
An autopsy is being held today to determine the cause of death.
In Peel, Mervyn SPENCE, 41, of Brampton was gunned down as he left a private event at a restaurant, in an industrial plaza at Steeles Ave E. and Torbram Rd., around 4 a.m. Saturday.
Crime-scene tape was still in place around about a dozen stores in the plaza yesterday as police tried to reconstruct the bloody path that led from the Malibu Marie lounge to a nearby parking lot, where the man was found in a pool of blood.
A large number of people attended the event, but so far police have not come up with a motive for the shooting, which took place as the party was ending.
They have not ruled out the possibility that SPENCE was shot several times while trying to run to safety.
Police want to talk to anyone at the party who can shed some light on the shooting.

Convicted killer shot dead
Slain 26-year-old was convicted a decade ago for stabbing a teenager to death at the Kennedy subway station
By John DUNCANSON, Staff Reporter
A Mississauga man convicted of killing a 15-year-old about a decade ago was shot to death yesterday outside a car dealership on Front St. W. near Spadina Ave.
So far, police have no suspects in the murder of Dennis Kwame OPPONG, 26, who was shot in the head around 3 a.m.
OPPONG, also known as "Dennis the Menace" was charged back in early 1996 with second-degree murder, and later convicted, in the stabbing death of Ishmael SPENCE. Both were just 15-year-olds at the time of the murder.
SPENCE was on his way home around 4 p.m. when he was confronted by OPPONG at a bus platform at the Kennedy subway station.
The youth was fatally stabbed and police at the time took out a special warrant to name OPPONG, then a young offender. He spent several days on the lam before he was arrested, police said.
Police couldn't say last night how much time OPPONG spent in jail for the SPENCE murder.
Security cameras at the Toronto Transit Commission station captured images of SPENCE clutching his chest and staggering through the crowded station before he collapsed near a kiosk and died.
There was a theory at the time that OPPONG may have been part of an east-end gang and that the two teenagers had exchanged words just before SPENCE was stabbed.
But police said afterwards that the attack on SPENCE was unprovoked. Investigators found a knife in a snowbank near the station.
It's unclear what OPPONG was doing for a living at the time of his slaying yesterday, but police said he was known to them.
Police aren't releasing an alleged motive for the killing but said they have reviewed video-surveillance images from the area and want to talk to five people who were in cars at the time of the death, including a cab driver.
Investigators say they received a 911 call around 3 a.m.
When they arrived, they found OPPONG on the north sidewalk of a Front St. W. address, across from a car dealership, with a gunshot wound to the head. He died while on the way to the hospital.
Yesterday, yellow police tape remained around the scene of the homicide, which included a car, but police would not say whether the vehicle was driven by OPPONG or by one of his killers.
OPPONG is the city's 65th homicide of this year and the 26th victim to die in a shooting.
Police are reviewing OPPONG's movements prior to his death and are asking anyone with information to call 416-808-1404 or Crime Stoppers at 416-222-8477.
