MOIR,
Sister
Eleanore, C.S.J.
Peacefully, after a brief illness at Saint_Joseph's Motherhouse,
Hamilton on March 16, 2006, in her 68th year as a Sister of Saint_Joseph.
Daughter of the late Milas Paul
MOIR and Catherine Theresa
BROPHY.
Predeceased by her sisters Mrs. Mary (George)
DALES,
Mrs.
Ada
(Anthony) FITZMAURICE, Mrs. Josephine (Joseph)
MOORE, Mrs. Anne
(Edward) STAHLBRODT, and Winnifred
MOIR. Survived by her sisters
Mrs. Jean (Edward)
BAUER, Sister Mary William (Grace) C.S.J.
(London), many nieces and nephews and the members of her religious
family, the Sisters of Saint_Joseph of Hamilton. The Sisters of
Saint_Joseph will welcome family and Friends at Saint_Joseph's Convent,
Hamilton from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. and 6: 30 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday,
March 20. A Vigil Service will be held on Monday, March 20 at
7 p.m. Mass of the Christian Burial will be celebrated on Tuesday,
March 21 at 10 a.m. at Saint_Joseph's Convent, Hamilton. Interment
at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery. In 1942, Sister Eleanore graduated
from Hamilton Normal School and began a lifelong ministry as
a religious educator. She received her Bachelor of Arts from
McMaster University in 1950. A lifelong learner herself, Sister
Eleanore holds a myriad of specialist certificates and a host
of post graduate credit courses taken to enhance her ministry
of education. Sister taught in the primary grades in Hamilton,
Brantford, Kenilworth and Dawson Creek. At the secondary level,
she taught for seven years at Cathedral Girl's High School in
Hamilton. She devoted 23 years of her ministry to the pupils
of Saint_John's College in Brantford as a much appreciated and
respected teacher and mentor. After her retirement from teaching,
Sister Eleanore's interest in people invited her into the ministry
of Pastoral Care. Integrity called her to become C.A.P.P.E. certified
in order to be as prepared as possible to minister to God's people.
She exercised her ministry of care at Saint_Joseph's Hospital,
Brantford, Saint_Joseph's Hospital, Hamilton and Hamilton General
Hospital through St. Patrick's Parish, Hamilton. One particular
facet of her pastoral work delighted her heart and that was her
volunteer ministry as a rehabilitation and pastoral care worker
at Burtch Correctional Institute in Brantford and
at Brantford
City Jail. Later, she volunteered as a literacy instructor at
Hamilton City Jail. Sister Eleanore's long commitment to the
education of young people and an engagement with their needs
in these complex times gave her a particular compassion and sensitivity
for troubled youth and those caught in the trap of drug and other
addictions. In 2001, declining health forced Sister Eleanore
to give up her active involvement in the ministry and she turned
her full attention to the ministry of prayer for the many intentions
that came her way, never forgetting those whose plight had claimed
her attention during her years of active ministry. The absence
of Sister Eleanore's serene, generous and prayerful self will
linger forever.

LEWIS,
Don (a.k.a. Lewis
GORDON)
With sadness we announce the passing of Don
LEWIS, at his home
in Stratford, Ontario, on Thursday, February 9, 2006. He was
70 years old. Don, who acted under the name of Lewis
GORDON,
was a member of the Stratford Festival Acting Company for 34
seasons and appeared in nearly 100 productions. Festival fans
will remember his appearances as Falstaff in Henry IV, Touchstone
in As You Like It, Puck in A Midsummer Nights Dream and
as Father
Damien in the one-person play, Damien. Don was born in Toronto
on August 7, 1935 to Gordon
LEWIS and Evelyn (Jocelyn)
LEWIS.
In 1957, fresh out of the Ontario College of Art, Don read in
the newspaper that Festival designer Tanya
MOISEIWITSCH was visiting
Toronto.
Don took his portfolio to Ms.
MOISEIWITSCH at her hotel.
So impressed was she with his art that she hired him on the spot
as a prop-maker. His career as an actor began almost by accident.
He was asked by an actor friend to appear as a scene partner
in an audition for Festival artistic director Michael
LANGHAM.
The next day, Mr.
LANGHAM pulled Don aside and told him "We're
not going to hire your friend, but how would you like to be in
the company?" In addition to the Stratford Festival, Don also
appeared at the Shaw Festival, the Grand Theatre (London, Ontario)
and Theatre Calgary. Don always had a love-hate relationship
with acting and it was his art that truly fed his soul. Don designed
the costumes for the Festival's 1967 production of Colours in
the Dark. He also produced murals, posters and exhibitions for
the Festival over the years as well as collages, drawings and
other artwork. Don was an accomplished photographer and among
company members it was always a treat when Don asked you to pose
for his camera. Cremation has taken place and a private funeral
will be held later this year in Harrington, Ontario, where Don
lived for 21 years.
