Gower
By Sarah GOWER and Peter
GOWER,

Inspiration. Born June 7, 2004, in Ottawa. Died November 7, 2005,
in Kingston, Ontario, of complications from leukemia (Acute Myeloblastic
Leukemia), aged 17 months.
We welcomed Malik Hassanali Gower
KAPASI on a Monday, a beautiful
sunny late spring day in Ottawa. In the first part of his life
he lived in several places before Bancroft, Ontario, as he followed
his parents on their family-medicine locums. He was a well-experienced
West Jet Cadet. At two months he liked floating in warm-water
pools. He took his first canoe trip at four months. Six months
found him out on Quebec ski trails, and watching a children's
pageant in St. George's Cathedral, as he chewed on the altar
rail. At 10 months he was delighted to watch a moose walk across
the front lawn of the house.
The second part of his life started when he could not throw off
a cold. He began Victoria Day in Bancroft, went on to Belleville,
and came by ambulance to Kingston General Hospital. One week
later, at 11½ months, he was diagnosed with leukemia (Acute Myeloblastic
Leukemia). He rarely complained at the many procedures that were
carried out on him. He loved to tell you where his eyes, nose
and tummy were, but didn't like to tell you about his ears because
someone might want to look in them. He happily crawled around
with intravenous lines attached. He ignored the central line
in his chest. He let everybody know where his shoes were, in
the hope that they might take him out. He knew which of the four
purple hippos was Mr. Hippo, and which were mere substitutes.
Mr. Hippo now rests with him.
He was generous with his food. He would be overcome with excitement
when one of his parents returned from work, and would start handing
them food from his highchair tray in welcome. During quiet times
with his tearful Mom, he would carefully choose his best grape
or pea and offer it to her as a little cheer-up gift. Once, in
his stroller, he spotted a cat and, much to its bemusement, he
excitedly offered it his half-eaten baby carrot. He loved feeding
the sparrows and the seagulls outside the hospital's pediatric
wing.
He also became one of the best non-verbal communicators we have
ever met. His emphatic "No, thanks" head shaking was just as
clear as his happy "Yes, please!" full-body bouncing. Two big
brown eyes would speak volumes of pleasure, concern or sleepiness.
His trust was absolute, and as long as someone he loved was there
to tell him all was okay, he believed, taking the next challenge
in stride.
He taught us so much about dealing with adversity. When he felt
tired, he cuddled quietly or slept. When he felt energetic, he
crawled, and read books, and stacked things and explored with
the exuberance of any toddler. He never felt sorry for himself,
and in turn we could not feel sorry for ourselves. His days with
us were true gifts.
We don't know what his aspirations were, nor his potential. He
was loved by all of us who watched him fight and suffer and recover
and try again and smile and giggle and hold up his arms in welcome.
He drew together two families living on five continents, Sarah
and Hassan's Friends and co-workers, neighbours, and the Kingston
General Hospital skilled medical and support staff. He is missed
by all, and by a Dalmatian who wonders why her favourite smell
visits no more.
And at the end he lay in his hospital bed and listened through
the evening as his parents spoke about his life. Then, on another
Monday, just before midnight, our 17-month-old left us.
The next day we said goodbye to Malik, on a beautiful sunny fall
afternoon in Kingston, with the sun setting, his sparrows singing
and the geese flying south.
Sarah is Malik's mother; Peter is his grandfather.

BURK/BURKE,
James (né
KAPHALAKOS) (September 16, 1917-October 15,
Writer - Editor - Novelist Longest-living Canadian Paraplegic
James BURK/BURKE would be the last to want his disability given any
billing. Yet in the view of his considerable achievements it
enhances his successful challenge of life. It is a mark of distinction.
He was born in Toronto the
son of Peter
KAPHALAKOS
(Peloponnesus,
Greece) and Florence
COCHRANE,
Toronto. If heritage counts, he
exhibited the strength and stoicism of a Spartan combined with
the humour of the Irish. All his youth he excelled in academic
standing, he was a voracious reader, lover of classic music,
and a regular at the 'Y' (1939 Bronze Medal in the Jr. Ontario
Championships). Later he took flying instructions out of the
Toronto Island Airport. He was about to get his private license,
when he was a passenger in an auto accident in 1940, before seat
belts were in use. Rehabilitation or social programs for civilian
paraplegics were nonexistent. He spent 7 years in hospitals permanently
confined to a wheelchair. In an interview much later he said
simply: 'I have a rather undistinguished past.' On release he
pursued a career in freelance writing, book reviewing and editing
for Canadian magazines, newspapers and the Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation. He wrote everything from short stories to commercial
copy. He edited the journal of the Canadian Paraplegic Association
for some 8 years. In 1951 he married actress Laddie
DENNIS.
They
honeymooned in Mexico. Throughout their marriage they took numerous
car journeys sharing the driving in the U.S. and Canada. They
moved to Scarborough in 1955 and rescued an unfinished renovation
of a building on the historic site of the Falcon Inn. Doing the
contracting himself,
BURK/BURKE did such a good job it was written
up by most of the Toronto papers. The 11-room house sits in a
woods with a spring fed stream and terraced lawns. It has remained
their home to this day. He published his first novel "Flee Seven
Ways" in Great Britain (by Hutchinson with distribution in Canada),
in the U.S. (Pantheon) and in a German translation (Rauch). It
received high praise from top publications: The Times Literary
Supplement, The Irish Times, Punch magazine, New Yorker magazine,
Sunday New York Herald Tribune, etc. Robert Moses, President
of The New York World's Fair 1964-65 wrote of his admiration,
and long time friend Marshall McLuhan predicted 'It is a picaresque
scenario that will be snapped up by an alert movie enterprise.'
And so it was that the Burkes flew to London in 1963 where he
wrote the movie script. Given the vagaries of filmdom it did
not come to fruition. However, an unexpected contract with the
British Broadcasting Corporation resulted in his writing a radio
script of the classic "Diary Of A Madman" by Gogol. It was given
repeated airings with film actor Kenneth Williams. In 1969 his
second novel was published in Britain "The Firefly Hunt" (Collins).
Again it was embraced by reviewers, especially in the British
press, including a long one in The Times Literary Supplement.
'A sparkling Romancandle of a fantasy' - Argosy United Kingdom
called it. He started a third novel but serious health problems
diminished the long term energy needed for the project. In his
last days he was cheered to hear that his novels are still selling
on the Internet. He died in a Toronto hospital with his wife
of 55-years holding his hand, following a ferocious 5-week battle.
According to his wishes he was buried in The Scarborough Historical
Society's Bethel Pioneer Cemetery in a private family ceremony
on October 24. There will be a tree planting in the Spring to
honour his remarkable life. He is survived by brothers Paul and
Peter, a nephew Christopher, a niece Paula
BASTONE and sisters-in-law
Mary KAYE of Montreal and Mae
KAPHALAKOS of Toronto. He was predeceased
by his brothers Jack (3-weeks before at 93 years) of Montreal
and George
KAPHALAKOS (1988) of Toronto. 'Now Jim, you can really
fly. May angels ride on your wings.' - Bill McVean

James BURK/BURKE,
Writer And Editor: (1917-2006)
Paralyzed by an auto accident in 1942, he survived to become
one of Canada's longest-surviving paraplegics
By Douglas
McARTHUR,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S9
Toronto -- James
BURK/BURKE was 22 and only weeks from getting a pilot's
licence when an accident left him paralyzed. The year was 1940 and
Toronto's health system was ill equipped to deal with civilian
paraplegics. Hospital authorities basically told him to "pray
and die," he said later.
He spent long years in institutions before the availability of
the personal collapsible wheelchair -- combined with his own
willpower -- helped him start a new life on the outside. He worked
as a freelance writer and editor, married radio and stage personality
Laddie DENNIS, and authored two comic novels in the 1960s. He
was to spend more than six decades in a wheelchair and was one
of Canada's longest-surviving paraplegics.
"He never allowed himself to be shackled by remorse," says William
GEISLER, one of the doctors who helped with his rehabilitation.
"He didn't ruminate on what had been. He knew those emotions
would sap him of the energy he required." Friends say he avoided
talking about his handicap, had a strong sense of humour and
was always willing to help others.
For a number of years, Mr.
BURK/BURKE edited the Caliper, the journal
of the Canadian Paraplegic Association. He also wrote Return
to Action, a history of treatment programs for spinal-cord patients.
But he never mentioned disabilities in his other writings, which
included a physical fitness course, short stories, book reviews
for The Globe and Mail and two novels.
Flee Seven Ways (1964) is the rollicking tale of a corrupt businessman.
It was published in Britain, the U.S. and Germany to favourable
reviews. "A very funny first novel," wrote The New York Times.
The paper's Literary Supplement noted: "His novel is a complex
construction, bravely undertaken and creditably carried out."
In The Firefly Hunt (1969), mischief and mayhem bedevil the hero
after he inherits a castle from an eccentric uncle. Argosy magazine
called it "a sparkling Roman-candle of a fantasy." Mr.
BURK/BURKE
drafted a third novel, but health problems halted completion.
Christened James
KAPHALAKOS, he changed his last name to
BURK/BURKE
as a young man. He was the second of five sons of Panogiotis
(Peter) KAPHALAKOS, a Greek immigrant who operated a Toronto
coffee business, and his wife, Florence (née
COCHRANE.)
Young
James excelled at school and in athletics but, because of his
father's death in 1930, he abandoned his studies. To support
his family, he graduated from high school and then went looking
for whatever work he could find.
An avid weightlifter with a striking physique, he earned some
income as a live model at the Ontario College of Art. But his
main job in 1940 was on the bull gang at a paper mill. He was
also taking flying lessons at the Toronto Island airport, but
only when he had some extra money. That all changed when the
car in which he was a passenger was involved in an accident.
The impact broke his back and left him paralyzed from the mid-back
down.
At the time, life expectancy for paraplegics was considered low.
As a result, Mr.
BURK/BURKE was given little more than food, a bed
to lie in and drugs to fight off infection. In all, he spent
seven years at a succession of Toronto hospitals. Later, he said
he only talked about those missing years "to counter the canard"
that he had spent them in jail.
He gave details of his dreary hospital years in lengthy interviews
conducted in the early 1990s by Mary
TREMBLAY, an associate professor
of health sciences at McMaster University. She used his experiences
in a series of academic papers on the evolution of Canada's treatment
of spinal-cord injuries.
At Saint Michael's Hospital, nuns asked Mr.
BURK/BURKE to accept his
fate and make peace with God. "I somehow didn't feel like taking
on the chore of dying at that moment," he told Ms.
TREMBLAY.
The Queen Elizabeth Hospital was "very restrictive" with few
activities, but at Runnymede Hospital he found the staff to be
more sympathetic. Somehow, he obtained a typewriter and took
up writing. One of his first successes as a freelancer was a
correspondence course on fitness that he sold through magazine
ads.
His life changed dramatically in 1946 when he was visited by
Dr. Al JOUSSE and John
COUNSELL, a paraplegic veteran who had
been injured at Dieppe. Along with neurosurgeon Doctor Harry
BOTTERELL,
they had helped set up Lyndhurst Lodge in Toronto as a centre
for spinal-injury rehabilitation programs for veterans of the
Second
World
War. As a deserving civilian, Mr.
BURK/BURKE was squeezed
into the program. He began travelling to Lyndhurst for physiotherapy
twice a week. More importantly, he was given one of the Everest
and Jennings folding, self-propelled wheelchairs that had provided
freedom and hope to paraplegic veterans.
In 1948, he moved to the Young Men's Christian Association in
downtown Toronto where he pursued his writing career. He wrote
short stories and book reviews, and also worked as a copy editor.
It was at the Young Men's Christian Association coffee bar that
he met Laddie
DENNIS, then a stage actress and radio announcer.
She later appeared regularly on Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
television and became a travel writer. One friend called their
romance "the love story of the century." Ms.
DENNIS says she
"made the first move" and was also the one who proposed. They
were married in 1951 and spent their honeymoon in Mexico.
In 1955, they purchased a former five-car garage that once belonged
to the historic Falcon Inn in Scarborough. The partly finished
structure was considered a white elephant, but the couple turned
it into a comfortable home where they often entertained 40 guests
at a time.
In 1963, Mr.
BURK/BURKE was invited to England to turn his first novel
into a screenplay. The project fell through, but along the way
he picked up an assignment to write the script for a British
Broadcasting Corporation Radio play based on Nikolai Gogol's
Diary of a Madman. It starred comedian Kenneth Williams.
Despite his handicap, Mr.
BURK/BURKE drove a car, raked lawns, got
in and out of a rowboat and even chopped wood.
Mary TREMBLAY started one interview saying she wanted to talk
about Mr. BURK/BURKE's ideas about disability. His reply summed up
his attitude: "I'm against it."
James BURK/BURKE was born in Toronto on September 16, 1917. He died
in Toronto on October 15, 2006, of complications of paraplegia.
He was 89. He leaves his wife, Laddie
DENNIS, and brothers Paul
and Peter KAPHALAKOS.

CUNNINGHAM,
Len
By Beth KAPLAN,
Page
A26
Artist, designer, craftsman, music lover. Born in Ottawa on January 14,
1943. Died of lung cancer in Toronto on January 20, aged 63.
Len CUNNINGHAM was an affable, creative, problem solver. Blessed
with thick, white hair and thick fingers capable of delicate
work, he lived and worked in a downtown Toronto neighbourhood
full of beautiful but crumbling Victorian row houses, all in
constant need of their genius handyman. What will Cabbagetown
do now without Len?
Not every homeowner who admired his decks and additions, his
new kitchens, floors and attic rooms, knew who the man really
was. From boyhood, Len loved to design and make things. As a
teen, he fashioned for his kid brother a go-kart with steering
wheel that was the envy of all. Awarded several design prizes
and scholarships, he attended the Ontario College of Art and
the Royal College of Art in London, where he earned a master's
in industrial design in 1977. With his wife, Annie, and infant
daughter Chloe, Len returned from England to Toronto, where son
David was born.
Len worked as an industrial designer for several large firms,
including Ecko Canada and Canada Post. Later, a customer who
picked up a certain kind of cookie sheet or stepladder might
hear Len say, "I designed that." After his marriage ended in
1990, Len wanted to work for himself, and he began his career
as the local handyman who could build and fix anything, and who'd
teach his customers about jazz and the blues, and a lot more,
while he did so.
We who watched Len do his job came to appreciate his wide-ranging
interests, his intelligence and self-deprecating wit, his enthusiasm
for music and his great scores at garage sales, especially paintings
of naked women and an original "Mona Lisa." As one of Len's needy
customers, I realize now how well he knew us. He saw the worst
the insides of our toilets and closets and fridges. Working
in our homes as our marriages fell apart along with the heating
and the plumbing, he knew about our love lives, sex lives, home
lives. But we trusted him with our secrets because we loved him,
and we knew that he loved us. He made us feel safe.
Still, for years, Len was a lonely man, nurturing his children
and his birds. Though the single women of Cabbagetown adored
their Lenny, almost all rejoiced when he met Sharon, who runs
the eclectic shop Second Thoughts on Parliament Street. Suddenly,
his shoes weren't adorned with holes and his jackets weren't
held together with curry paste. The two of them vacationed in
Cuba, haunted blues clubs and jazz concerts, and threw generous
parties for Cabbagetowners in Len's newly tidy house. He and
Sharon had a few -- too few -- years of great happiness. Len
was not one to talk about happiness, but it was visible in him.
The diagnosis of lung cancer came just as his life had at last
settled and bloomed. He and Sharon were married at home only
a few days before he died. The minister was paid with a collection
taken up by neighbours.
Len received no accolades during his life. He was a man doing
a tedious, unglamorous and often thankless job, for which he
charged too little. But his funeral was so crowded that the overflow
of people down the outside steps of the church struggled to hear
the proceedings inside. Speaker after speaker paid tribute to
the humour, thoughtfulness, patience and grit with which Len
took care of his corner of the world. After the funeral, a well-known
writer and regular customer said, "I want to change the way I
live, so that people will speak that way about me." A beautiful
elderly woman looked at the throng in amazement. "I always thought
I was Len's very special friend, the only one," she said.
We all felt the same way.
Beth KAPLAN likes to think she was one of Len's most special
Friends.
