Neil▼
Dr.
R.▼
Neil▼
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY, noted consultant to the pool industry in Canada
and the United States, passed suddenly Tuesday, March 28, 2006.
The Newmarket, Ontario, resident had just returned home from
a day-long session at a Toronto hotel teaching water chemistry
to pool operators when he collapsed. He was 67. At the time of
his death, Doctor
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY was serving as principal-in-charge of Lowry and
Associates, a nationwide distributor of specialty chemicals which
has exclusive representation of Taylor Technologies' water-testing
products in Canada; owner and chief educator for the Lowry School
of Pool and Spa Chemistry; and a contributing writer and commentator
for numerous trade publications, most notably Pool and Spa Marketing
magazine. He was an active member of the Pool and Hot Tub Council
of Canada and the only Canadian voting member of the Association
of Pool and Spa Professionals' Recreational Water Quality Committee
whose water quality guidelines are followed by public pools and
spas throughout North and South America. He also served as an
advisor to the board of directors of the Professional Pool Operators
of America. Doctor
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY's ability to make a complicated subject
understandable for the average person was coupled with an enthusiasm
for his subject matter that most people could not resist, and
this made him a sought-after public speaker. Most recently he
took part in a panel discussion on preventing recreational water
illnesses at the 26th annual Canadian Pool and Spa Conference in
Toronto.▼
Said▼
Richard▼
HUBBARD, the Markham, Ontario-based publisher
of Pool and Spa Marketing, 'Neil was one of the pool industry's
finest and most respected educators, and one of its greatest
Friends. He was passionately devoted to elevating the understanding
of water chemistry among aquatic facility managers, public health
inspectors, and pool builders, service companies, and pool supplies
retailers. He always said, 'Over ninety percent of pool problems
are caused by poor water chemistry.' Without him, the level of
discourse in our industry will be diminished.' His influence
on Canada's $1.2-billion-a-year pool and spa industry is pervasive.
Dr. LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY contributed to the present regulations for public spas
under the auspices of the Ontario Ministry of Health. He also
designed the model labels for pool products regulated under the
federal Pest Control Products Act. He was the original author
of 'Pool and Spa Chemistry: A Testing and Treatment Guide,' widely
regarded as the Bible of water quality management. Over the course
of 26 years, thousands across Canada became certified pool water
technicians by his pool school.
Robert Neil
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY was born in Windsor, Ontario, to Mac and Marjorie
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY and was a loving big brother to David Kent
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY and Lynda
Jane PARKER. He earned a bachelor of science degree in chemistry
from the University of Western Ontario in nearby London; a doctorate
in inorganic chemistry from Cornell University in Ithaca, New
York; and a master's in business administration from the University
of Michigan in Ann Arbor. But Neil
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY was no ivory tower academic.
He spent the early part of this career with three Canadian chemical
companies: first in pool chemical sales at Kert Chemical Industries,
Inc., then as pool chemical products manager at Swan Recreational
Products Limited, and finally as technical services director
for Mursatt Chemicals Limited. He established Lowry and Associates
in 1985 with his wife Gabriele as his business partner. Lowry and
Associates became the master distributor for Taylor Technologies
in Canada in 1989, but the two firms' relationship goes back
even further. 'Neil and I worked together for 26 years,' said
a saddened Paul
WOODEN, president of Taylor. 'He was more than
a trusted business associate. He was a good friend to me, and
to many others at Taylor. He was an incredibly smart man and
so funny! We loved spending time with Neil at the end of a long
day at a trade show; he kept us in stitches with his jokes and
parlor tricks. His sudden passing has left us all numb with grief.'
One of his Friends at Taylor was marketing Vice-President Patricia
FITZGERALD. 'Dr.
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY had a fierce intellect and a blunt manner
of speaking that took some getting used to. He was an avid reader,
a student of history, and always up on current events. In a debate
of any kind he took no prisoners. But if he had the roar of a
lion, he also had the heart,'
FITZGERALD reminisced. 'I will
miss him greatly.' He met Gabriele
ADELMANN in Boston, Masssachusetts,
and the pair married shortly thereafter in July 1972. While growing
their business together they also grew a family, producing sons
Michael and Derek, now ages 30 and 28 respectively, and daughter
Sarah, age 17. He was a devoted husband and father. When Mackenzie,
3, Andrew, 18 months, and Erik, 1 month, were born to Michael
and his wife Jennifer, the grandchildren became his pride and
joy. Derek
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY and his spouse Sheila
STARRETT are both involved
in running Lowry and Associates; Michael
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY too is following
in his father's footsteps by being a part of the industry. 'We
all have not only lost a loving husband, father and grandfather
we have also lost our very best friend.' A memorial service will
be held at 2 p.m. on Monday, April 3rd, at the Old Mill Inn,
21 Old Mill Road, Toronto, in the Brule A Room on the first floor
(416-236-2641). All Friends and colleagues are welcome. In lieu
of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the First Church
of Christ Scientist, Etobicoke, where Doctor
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY was a member.

ADETUYI,
Joseph (1921-2006)
Joseph (Padeola)
ADETUYI, born February 1921, left this earth
April 10, 2006, 85 years young. Survived by his wife Ilona, children
Alfons (Lisa), Tom (Kathy), Amos (Annmarie), Rob (Linda), Veronica
(Michael) and Joe, and ten beautiful grandchildren Alexis, Aaron,
Ashley, Adrian, Brianne, Matthew, Daniel, Ingrid, Braedan and
Jordan. Joseph was born in Ondo, Nigeria and left to see the
world at the tender age of 17 when he joined the British Merchant
Marines and served in World War 2. After his meritorious service,
including surviving the sinking of his ship, he landed in Sudbury,
Ontario and joined the International Nickel Company (Inco). He
holds the distinction of being the first West African to settle
in Ontario. Joseph met and married his wife Ilona in Sudbury
and together they raised their six children. Fiercely proud of
his African heritage, his children and grandchildren will always
remember the many stories told them by their "Bubba" and therefore
have a true and lasting respect for their African roots and the
hardships their grandfather overcame making his life in Canada.
Retired from Inco after 29 years, Joseph eventually followed
all of his children and their children to a new life in Toronto
where he lived out his later years. Though his last years presented
him with a number of difficult challenges because of his struggles
with debilitating diabetes, Joseph was most certainly a marvel
to everyone who knew him. A courageous and very tenacious man,
he repeatedly overcame obstacles while keeping his positive outlook
and love of life throughout. Loved by many, remembered forever
a true one of kind, "African Joe" has taken his last trip home
and will forever be free. Our family would like to give heartfelt
thanks to everyone at Credit Valley Hospital, most particularly
in the dialysis unit for their many years of care and Friendship
to our father. In his last days, he was cared for and became
Friends with the wonderful staff at The Wenleigh, who spoke to
him in his native tongue and saw to his every need with kindness
and dignity. We will be forever grateful.
