MARSH,
Jeffrey
Bruce (1957-2006)
Very peacefully, with close family and his best friend, Andy,
beside him at Oakville Trafalgar Hospital, on June 11, 2006.
While we who love him grieve his early leaving, we remember his
quick wit, his loyalty to family and Friends, his devotion to
his delightful pit bull, Zach, and his zeal to remove the stigma
unfairly attached to the breed. Jeff is the
son of Elizabeth
and the late Bruce
MARSH, brother to Kevin, stepson of Neville
D'EÇA, admiring uncle of Gabriel and Hilary, nephew to Betty
MARSH of Burlington, and kin to the many members of the "Dunrobin"
Kennedy clan. Cremation has occurred, and there will be a small
private interment service at a later date.

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.

Dreaded homecoming for soldier's remains
Body of Thunder Bay reservist flown to Trenton
Clouds broke to shine light on grief of his loved ones
By Anna PIEKARSKI,
Staff
Reporter
Canadian Forces Base Trenton -- His homecoming should have been
joyous, a loving son hugging his parents and girlfriend after
coming back from the battlefield, but instead those he loved
linked arms and cried, watching as a casket was lifted off a
plane.
Anthony BONECA, the 21-year-old reservist from the Lake Superior
Scottish Regiment based in Thunder Bay, died in a firefight near
Pahmol, west of Kandahar City, in Afghanistan on Sunday.
His visibly grief-stricken parents Shirley and Antonio
BONECA
leaned on each other for support, as they stared at the flag-draped
coffin of their only son. His tour of duty was scheduled to be
over in three weeks.
Anthony's girlfriend Megan
DECORTE fell into the arms of her
parents at the sight of the coffin carrying his body.
BONECA's loved ones stood beside dignitaries yesterday at Canadian
Forces Base Trenton awaiting the plane, with media present at
the family's request. Rain fell all day, stopping less than an
hour before the aircraft touched down at 7 p.m.
Governor General Michaëlle Jean, Defence Minister Gordon O'Connor,
Chief of Defence Staff Gen. Rick Hillier and members of the military
were there to join in remembering the ultimate sacrifice
BONECA
made for his country.
The grey Airbus broke through clouds just as the sun appeared,
turning the rain-soaked tarmac into a blinding surface of light.
A bagpiper played as the body was placed in the hearse -- the
sound of Megan's sobs the only other noise.
Clutching flowers, family members kissed the petals before placing
them on the casket.
There has been debate surrounding
BONECA's death, based on accounts
he gave to those back home about his two tours of duty in Afghanistan.
His girlfriend's father Larry
DECORTE told the Star on Sunday
that BONECA was unhappy about conditions of his recent Kandahar
posting, including one three-week-long foot patrol without adequate
food or water.
"He hated it over there. He was misled as to what was going to
be there when he got there, and what he would be doing. He was
very mad about it,"
DECORTE said.
DECORTE said
BONECA was not suicidal but he even went to an army
priest to see if talk of suicide would get him discharged.
BONECA's father issued a statement Tuesday saying Anthony loved
the army and he knew what he was getting into.
It upset his son to see the conditions in Afghanistan -- the
50°C weather, the sand and the hardships the children endured.
"Certainly Anthony wanted to come home, but I ask what soldier
wouldn't in that situation?"
No matter what his state of mind, he still fought and performed
the tasks of a soldier. Though he may have been desperate for
a ticket home, the duties done gave
BONECA a homecoming every
soldier dreads.
BONECA's infantry unit motto is Inter Pericula Intrepidi, Latin
for fearless in the face of danger.
"Anthony was the first to volunteer in any situation," his father
said.
BONECA is Canada's 17th military casualty in Afghanistan since
For a time, media were banned from covering the return of those
killed in Afghanistan earlier this year, by Prime Minister Stephen
Harper's government.
Public backlash from that decision -- and talk that the government
was really attempting to hide the death toll of the Afghan conflict
saw the Conservatives retreat, saying they would leave the
decision up to individual families.
The BONECAs allowed photos on the tarmac.
But they declined to give interviews.
