ROTHERNEL,
Max▲
I would like to thank so many people who helped our family emotionally,
financially, physically and your prayers. Thank you to Searra
BROWN, students and staff at Wiarton High School; Kelso Villa,
staff at Zellers, Owen Sound; T.G.I.F., Three Friends Cafe, Sheer
Styles, Sears, Balloon Headquarters, Mysteeks, The Triangle Discount,
The Bargain Store, all of Wiarton. Max has touched us all in
so many special ways, either by those big blue eyes, or the many
funny faces, or the language he spoke all the time that only
he knew what it meant. The little games he'd play, like clear
the table for mommy, or horsey ride with daddy or the smile on
his face when mommie would get his favourite book, and they'd
read it together - priceless. Then Max and dad on guitar, the
pride in dad's eyes watching his son pick away. The biggest smile
in the world and always opened arms. Max made everyday count
and never left a toy untouched. If anyone ever had the privilege
of meeting Max's parents, they would soon see why this little
boy was so happy and full of life. Words cannot express just
how this little boy touched my heart. But, I can thank my daughter
Arryn and my son-in-law, Jim for giving us all such a precious
gift. Although Max was with us for only 14 months, he gave me
a lifetime of beautiful memories. He will always be my sunshine.
- Cheryl WATSON,
Max's grandma.

Ian SCOTT was a brilliant, charming, supremely confident overachiever
who captivated the courtroom with his eloquence and wit. In his
next act, as Ontario's reform-minded attorney general, he redefined
the qualities expected from the person who holds that job.
But in one of life's cruel twists, at the prime of his life,
a debilitating stroke robbed
SCOTT of his ability to speak. And
for the next 12 years, the man considered one of the country's
most gifted lawyers and orators battled back, drawing on the
same studious determination that characterized his legal career.
"He was a remarkable person, a tortured guy in some ways, but
a beautiful human being," said former Ontario premier David
PETERSON.
SCOTT, 72, died at his Toronto home early yesterday. He'd battled
a variety of ailments in recent weeks, but after an extended
stay in hospital he returned home. True to form,
SCOTT, a voracious
reader his whole life, insisted during his dying days that his
sister read him excerpts from a recent memoir written by Eddie
Goldenberg, political adviser to former prime minister Jean Chrétien.
SCOTT considered his time as Ontario's attorney general, between
1985 and 1990, the best job he ever had. As usual, he was centre
stage.
"He was a real busy bee around government,"
PETERSON said yesterday.
"I very much valued his judgment and he was a very, very, very
powerful minister."
At Queen's Park, Premier Dalton McGuinty interrupted proceedings
to announce
SCOTT's death. Attorney General Michael Bryant said
Canada has lost a legal legend.
"Everybody was in gobsmacked awe of the man.
Progressive
Conservative
Leader John Tory, who worked with
SCOTT
as a young lawyer, paid tribute to his friend as a "wonderful,
courageous, funny, smart, dedicated man."
There were high expectations riding on
SCOTT when he sailed into
office.
But the lustre quickly tarnished when
PETERSON's
Liberal government,
in one of its first acts in office, announced plans to abolish
the honorary designation of Queen's Counsel, long considered
a form of patronage.
The initial huffing and puffing gave way to mixed reviews of
SCOTT's performance. There were notable successes. He took steps
to rid the judicial appointments process of patronage, setting
up an independent advisory committee to screen candidates.
SCOTT introduced pay-equity legislation and waged a successful
battle over full funding to separate schools.
But Ontario was rapidly acquiring a reputation for the longest
trial delays on the continent.
SCOTT was convinced the solution
wasn't more money and judges, but a restructuring of the entire
system. He locked horns with the judiciary over a move that merged
three court levels into two.
"He was a reformer at heart and he wanted to make a contribution,"
said Toronto lawyer Chris
PALIARE, one of
SCOTT's former articling
students and law partners. "If that meant merging the courts
and offending some superior court judges, so be it."
SCOTT had a privileged Ottawa upbringing and seemed destined
for a career in law. His father, Cuthbert
SCOTT, was a leading
intellectual-property lawyer. His great-grandfather, Sir Richard
SCOTT, a member of Sir Wilfrid Laurier's cabinet, was responsible
for the Scott Act, a temperance law.
The eldest of six,
SCOTT displayed first-born, overachieving
tendencies from the start, said his younger sister, Martha.
In high school,
SCOTT joined a debating league in an effort to
overcome a childhood stammer. That, in turn, revealed a natural
talent for oral advocacy.
"He was the most persuasive communicator I've ever encountered,"
said lawyer Linda
ROTHSTEIN, who worked with
SCOTT as an articling
student.
But he was often so nervous before a case that he had to go and
have a cigarette to calm down,
PALIARE said.
Measured against that backdrop,
SCOTT's stroke seemed particularly
cruel, said Ontario Chief Justice Roy McMurtry, who considers
SCOTT's death "the end of an era."
SCOTT recently remarked that he worked his "ass off" to regain
some ability to speak, his sister said.
"In 12 years, he did make a life for himself," she said. "And
he taught me that communication has nothing to do with speech,
because he was able, with a raised eyebrow or a hand gesture
or a single word, to be every bit as eloquent as he had been
before."

Joe was born and lived in Toronto his entire
life except for a four year posting in Montreal. He was strongly
committed to his community and his country. He worked for Bell
Canada for 40 years and in retirement, started a second career
as a professional fundraiser. Joe received the 20 year service
medal from the Boy Scouts after serving as a Scouter and District
Commissioner during the 1950's and 60's. In 1965, he was elected
as a trustee and vice-chair of the Etobicoke Board of Education.
In the mid 60's, he began his long career in the Liberal Party
- an extended family in which he was for decades a respected
fundraiser and organizer (including his adventures as an advance
man for Pierre Trudeau in the 1968 election). Joe became President
of the Toronto and District Liberal Association in 1970 and of
the Liberal Party of Ontario in 1972. He ran twice as a Liberal
candidate: in the 1975 provincial election in York West and in
the 1980 federal election in Etobicoke Centre. Joe served on
the board of Runnymede Chronic Care Hospital and was a steward
for 40 years at Kingsway Lambton United Church. He was active
in the Art Gallery at Harbourfront, the Etobicoke Historical
Society, the United Way of Toronto, the Donwood Institute, the
Canadian Centre for Philanthropy and as a volunteer advisor on
fundraising to over a hundred charitable and arts organizations.
Joe was a longtime Kiwanian, serving as Lieutenant Governor of
Eastern Canada and the Caribbean and as President of the Kiwanis
Club of Toronto. His lifelong passion for jazz led him to be
a founding member of the Classic Jazz Society of Toronto and
to enjoy many visits to New Orleans, Grossman's, the Collector's
Congress and Sam's. In 2002, Joe's outstanding service to the
community was recognized with the Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal.
For the past year, Joe faced the difficulties of dementia with
loving support from his family, Friends and the caring staff
at Kensington Gardens. Friends may call at the Turner and Porter
Yorke Chapel, 2357 Bloor St. W. at Windermere, east of the Jane

LINDSAY,
John
W.
Sr.
It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of
John W. LINDSAY
Sr. on May 5, 2006 due to complications from
lung cancer. Born in Brooklyn, New York on June 2, 1926 to Harry
Dayton LINDSAY and Ellen Arlene
McBRINE,
John grew up in Woodstock,
New Brunswick. He served in the Canadian Army where a chance
meeting with a fellow soldier changed his life. There he met
an older man who advised him to become an engineer and see the
world. He entered Dalhousie University with the Veterans' Program
and there he met his lifelong love and partner, Marjorie A.
LANGIN
whom he married in 1948. He graduated with an Engineering Diploma
in 1949 and went on to attend Nova Scotia Technical College where,
in 1951, he earned a Bachelor of Civil Engineering. While studying
engineering he was awarded the Bob Waters Award as most outstanding
engineer and was President of his engineering class. John lived
a fully balanced life. In business, he was a visionary developer
and partner and mentor for small businesses and a corporate leader
in large enterprises. In community life, he was a passionate
volunteer, advisor and fund raiser. In his personal life, he
was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, friend and lifelong
fitness participant, sports fan and lover of music. As a developer
his first project was the Strawberry Hill Street lands in North
Halifax. He then built and leased the first multiple occupancy
building in the Burnside Industrial Park and went on to develop
millions of square feet of commercial buildings in the 'Park.'
He also built and developed industrial buildings in Saint_John's,
Newfoundland. His crowning achievement was the Purdy's Wharf
office project on the waterfront of downtown Halifax. The leading
office project in Atlantic Canada, it was technically innovative
and remains the architectural signature of the Halifax skyline.
John loved to partner and mentor in the creation of new businesses.
These included steel and plastic piping, electrical motor rewinding,
container repair, marine electric, mobile catering, pipe cleaning
and repair, hazardous waste handling, equipment rentals, environmental,
demolition earth work, tennis, squash and racquetball clubs,
mathematical software, point of sale promotion and driving ranges.
Beyond the success and failure of these businesses, he valued
his ongoing relationship with each of his partner entrepreneurs.
As a corporate leader he gave valued direction to national and
regional companies. For a decade, he was chairman of Maritime
Life following long service on the mortgage committee. He was
a director of Canada Trust and its predecessor Canada Permanent
Trust. He was a multi-decade director of Corporate Communications
(now Colours), a director of Maritime Telephone and Telegraph (predecessor
to Aliant) and was Chairman of the Halifax Shipyards. He was
co-founder and Chairman of Atlantic Industries. John believed
deeply in the Young Men's Christian Association of Greater Halifax/Dartmouth
and the IWK
Hospital and volunteered for both all of his adult
life. At the Young Men's Christian Association, he was a volunteer,
a member, an ambassador, a philanthropist and never ending steward.
He joined the Board in the early 60s and remained as a Director
until 1971. He actively participated in every Young Men's Christian
Association fund raising campaign from 1970 to present. He served
as a board member of the
IWK
Children's
Hospital for more than
ten years, leading major capital campaigns and was the co-leader
of the amalgamation of the
IWK and the Grace Hospital. John was
also the founding chair of the
IWK
Foundation. In the 1970s he
served on the Halifax Board of Trade including acting as Chairman
in 1977. He also performed significant fund raising for his alma
mater, Dalhousie University, and for a number of years served
on its Board of Governors. John received recognition for his
efforts in the community and in business. In 1984 he became the
first recipient of the Halifax Young Men's Christian Association
Red Triangle Award for outstanding community service. In 1991
he earned an Honourary Doctorate of Engineering from Technical
University of Nova Scotia. He was named a Dalhousie Outstanding
Alumnus and was also an honourary life member of the Association
of Professional Engineers of Nova Scotia. He was inducted into
the Nova Scotia Business Hall of Fame in 2004 and in 2005 was
appointed to the Young Men's Christian Association Fellowship
of Honour in a ceremony on Parliament Hill. In his personal life
he made regular fitness an integral part of his day to day routine.
He had played varsity football, rugby and boxing during his university
years. He attended the Young Men's Christian Association advanced
fitness class for three decades, leading the class each year
on his birthday from age 60 to 72. He loved both the workout
and the camaraderie. He and Marge enjoyed their lifelong couple
Friends and he also enjoyed Boys Night Out, poker club and the
Eager Beaver Investment club. John followed all sports avidly
and was a true music lover. He did not prefer any particular
genre, all he liked was 'good music' of all types. His deepest
passions were reserved for his wife, his children and his grandchildren.
He is survived by his wife
Marjorie, son John (Anne
CAMPBELL,)
daughter Deborah (Luca
ROTTA-
LORIA,) grandchildren Jason, Andreas,
Lauren, Alexander and Nicolas and step granddaughter Emma. The
family would like to invite all those who wish to join in the
celebration of his life to a reception on Monday, May 8 from
1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on the wharf at Purdy's Wharf. A Funeral service
will be held on Tuesday, May 9 at 2 p.m., at First Baptist Church,
1300 Oxford Street, Halifax., Reverend Tim MacFarlane officiating.
