HELBIG,
Marian
Mom left the stage suddenly on Tuesday, October 31, 2006 in the
middle of a brilliant set. She was a singer, model, mother, grandmother
extraordinaire, and passionate friend who leaves a devastating
hole in our lives. We will miss her sense of humour, her style,
her beauty and grace, and most of all her incredible warmth and
devotion to her family. Mom would want us to remember her long
years of cottage freeloading, berry picking and freestyle swimming,
globetrotting with kindred spirits, and many nights of jazz to
which she brought her inimitable zest and insouciance. We also
remember the talented dressmaker, fabulous cook, and hostess
who made each legendary Christmas party a destination. We will
terribly miss watching the Leafs, doing crosswords and wonderful
conversation with this proud Canadian and protoenvironmentalist.
She survived in the face of lupus for over 45 years, and taught
us to aspire to her noble example. We'll make certain her memory
stays alive and bright in her grandchildren's lives. Marian will
be deeply missed by her children Karla
RODGERS,
Avril
HELBIG
(and spouse Mike

and their families. She was predeceased by her loving husband

Surgeon excelled at four sports
By John HERBERT, Free Press Golf Reporter, Sun., September 24,
One of Western's all-time sports greats, Reg
ORT was also one
of the university's most outstanding citizens.
The 78-year-old
ORT died recently in Tillsonburg Memorial Hospital
after a long illness.
A funeral service was held Friday in Tillsonburg where he practised
general surgery for 33 years.
A member of Western's W Club sports hall of fame since 1984,
ORT was recruited by long-time friend Jack
FAIRS to come to Western
from his hometown of Welland to play football for coach Johnny
METRAS.
Before graduating with an honours degree in physical education
in 1953, ORT starred in football, swimming, hockey and wrestling.
He was a member of the 1953 Western football team that won the
Yates Cup Ontario senior intercollegiate championship for the
eighth time.
After teaching for a few years,
ORT returned to Western to study
medicine and graduated in 1957.
He also earned his fellowship in general surgery in 1962 and
a fellowship in the American College of Surgeons in 1966.
While at Western,
ORT also won two of Western's most prestigious
awards for achievement in athletics, academics and university
life -- the Doctor Claude Brown Memorial Award and the Hon. G. Howard
Ferguson Award.
FAIRS first met
ORT in Welland in the late 1940s when they played
on the same baseball team. At the time,
FAIRS was also recruiting
talent for the Western football team and became aware
ORT was
an outstanding high school prospect.
"He was a big lineman and Johnny
METRAS obviously liked him,"
said FAIRS, also an assistant coach with the Mustangs. "In those
days, linemen weren't as big as today and he was bigger than
most when he came to Western. He was an outstanding player who
played with some of the best teams Western had at the time."
"He was a four-star athlete," said another long-time friend Bob
GAGE, a former London Free Press sports writer who covered Western
sports for decades. "He played four sports and that's not done
today. He was one of the best and one of the last to play four
sports. He was one of the last to graduate in physical education
and then become a doctor.
"What impressed me was his athletic ability,"
GAGE said. "He
was certainly a likeable guy. Everybody liked him."
ORT is survived by his wife of 50 years, Joan
(CRANSTON)
ORT,
and their children Chris
ORT,
Lisa
RAHN of Vancouver and Robert
ORT of Guelph.
Joan ORT was a teacher at Central secondary school.
