SITTON,
Margaret
Eva (née
BENNING)
Peacefully at Saint Vincent Hospital in Ottawa on Friday, July 20,
2007. Eva was born on August 30, 1922, daughter of James and
Isobelle BENNING of Glenhurst (Ayrshire cattle farm) in Williamstown,
Ontario. Predeceased by her brother Forbes (Royal Canadian Air
Force), sister Jean and brother David. Survived by David's widow
Aline, their children Lynda and Forbes and his children Chloe
and David of London, Ontario. Eva's cousin Douglas Benning
MacDONALD
and his wife Margaret of Kemptville, their son Christopher (Carla)
of Ottawa and daughter Blythe of Toronto will miss her deeply
as will Eva's many Friends and colleagues. In 1944 Eva
BENNING
graduated as a Registered Nurse from the Royal Victoria Hospital
Training School for Nurses in Montreal. After 'specialing' from
Kingston to Victoria, she worked as a nurse for the Toronto Transit
Commission in Toronto. Returning to Montreal and the Royal Vic,
she became Director of Nursing for the Ross Pavilion. On retirement
to Kemptville, she continued to enjoy international travel, repeating
earlier trips to the Edinburgh Festival in Scotland, vacations
in Indonesia and New Zealand and cooking class in Tuscany. Eva
and Friends annual pilgrimage to Ontario's Stratford Shakespeare
Festival was a yearly highlight. Eva was an active participant
in her Kemptville book club, a member of Saint_John's United Church,
the Ottawa Women's Canadian Club and Probus. She was also Past
President of the Royal Victoria Hospital Nurses Alumni Association
(1971-1973). Eva was a generous and enthusiastic hostess to Friends
and neighbours and with them enjoyed a rich and fun filled retirement
until a stroke in October 2002, followed by residency at Saint
Vincent, seriously restricted her life. Nonetheless, Eva remained,
to Friends and family, an optimistic and witty entertainer who
endured without complaint. 'Her stories are remembered, her spirit
is embraced'. A memorial gathering will be held at Saint_John's
United Church, 400 Prescott Street, Kemptville on Saturday, July 28th
at 11 a.m. Inurnment will be held at a later date at St. Andrew's
Churchyard in Williamstown, Ontario. Those who wish may make
memorial donations to the Canadian Diabetes Association or Heart
and Stroke Foundation. Funeral Arrangements under the care and
direction of Grant Brown Funeral Home Rolston Chapel, Kemptville,

BOISSONNEAU,
Alice
Irene
(EEDY)
In Guelph, Ontario, December 9, 2007. Novelist, poet, short-story
writer, social worker by training. Born in Walkerton, Ontario,
in 1918, raised in Saint Marys, Ontario, graduated in 1939 from
Victoria College, University of Toronto. Loving wife of the late
Arthur BOISSONNEAU.
Predeceased by her sister, Elizabeth Eedy
Brown FRYE (1997,) and her brother, John W.
EEDY (1996.) Alice
began her adult life as a hospital social worker in Toronto and
Vancouver, and wrote short stories in her spare time. Her work
appeared in the Canadian Forum, Alphabet magazine, Exile: A Literary
Quarterly, and she wrote for the Anthology series on Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation Radio. During her life with Arthur,
a specialist in forestry, Alice took to writing in an isolated
trailer in the northern Ontario woods, in the "clement" months.
Her publications included two novels, Eileen McCullough (1976),
shortlisted in 1977 for the W.H. Smith/Books in Canada First
Novel Award, and A Sudden Brightness (1994); and a short story,
"The McCrimmons", in Stories from Ontario (Germaine Warkentin,
ed., 1974). In 1992, she published There Will Be Gardens, a poignant
memoir of life in Toronto. A Globe and Mail review at the time
described this latter book as mining both the grace, and the
"sour, sad stillness" of pre-"world-class" Toronto, in a "long,
hypnotic chant…to great literary effect". Her family remembers
her as a wonderful cook, who loved music, and encouraged Arthur's
recorder group; in her young life, Alice sang folk songs and
arias, seated at the piano with her mother. Alice leaves her
sisters-in-law, Dorothy
EEDY of Saint Marys and Marie
MILLER of
Woodbridge; her godson, Sy
BENSON of Brantford, and her friend
Kelli ARPPE of Guelph; and many nieces and nephews, and great
nieces and nephews, in communities throughout Canada; and in
Hong Kong, China, and London, England. A gathering for family
and Friends will take place at 1: 00 p.m. on January 12, 2008,

BUCKLES-
BORCHERT,
AGNES
On July 1, 2007, Mrs. Agnes 'Aggie'
BUCKLES-
BORCHERT of Edmonton
passed in to the loving hands of the Lord at the age of 89 years.
Her husband Leo
BORCHERT and her sister Iris
LIPINSKI predecease
her. Aggie is survived by her sisters: Joyce
JONES
(Toronto)
and Madeline
PAPE
(Edmonton) nieces; Gwen
BENTLEY (Edmonton,)
Barbara JONES (San Francisco), Pamela
JONES (Montreal) and Jennifer
JONES
(Toronto) nephews; David and Rodger
PAPE (Edmonton,) and
Peter and Andre
LIPINSKI
(Toronto.)
Aggie's life was the epitome
of the three Es: educate, enlighten and entertain. Her life-long
career as an educator began at the young age of eighteen in a
one-room schoolhouse in Wetaskiwin and led to English Department
head at NcNally S.H. Although she retired from teaching after
40 years, her love of education continued, finding her tutoring
many students and relatives, teaching inmates of Fort Saskatchewan
Jail and speaking at many conventions and workshops. She worked
for equal pension rights for women teachers and was a founding
member of the Edmonton Chapter of the Canadian College of Teachers.
Aggie had a passion for the arts and loved to stir others to
explore and enjoy the arts. Along with playing the piano and
organ, writing plays and books, she was the organizer and director
of the Edmonton Youth Chorus and the Canadettes, a group that
also performed for CFRN Radio and television. She was a great
supporter of many music students, helping them to achieve their
dreams by buying musical instruments and underwriting concerts.
She coordinated musical comedies including a creative production
of 'Brigadoon' and co-edited a drama text, 'Nobody in the Cast'.
Aggie loved to bring people together. She would often open her
home; inviting people of all walks of life to meet and mingle
and party. She will be fondly remembered by her many Friends,
family, and former students. A Memorial Service will be held
at Robertson-Wesley United Church on Friday, July 06, 2007 at
2: 00 p.m. Friends who so wish may make memorial donations directly
to the Taylor University College and Seminary, 11523-23 Avenue,

DAVIES, John Picton and Beverley Ann (née
LEWIS)
John Picton
DAVIES died suddenly of congestive heart failure
on Thursday, November 8, 2007. He was 87. Born in Ton Pentre,
Wales in 1920, Picton enjoyed Jack London novels, hiking, exploring
caves, and climbing mountains. His determination and intelligence
led to notable achievements throughout his life. At age ten he
played violin in an otherwise all-adult orchestra. He won scholarships
to Corpus Christi College, Cambridge University. After graduating
from Cambridge, he joined the British Army 3rd Infantry Division,
where he was the youngest officer in his battalion. On June 12,
1944 at the age of twenty-four he landed in France in command
of a landing craft, and thirty men. He fought through France
and Germany, and remained in the occupying forces until after
the war ended. He emigrated to Canada in 1947 and began a successful
corporate career in Montreal and later Toronto. He married Iris
Elanor BENTLEY in 1958. They had three sons Tudor, Morgan, and
Trevor. Iris died of cancer in March, 1969. Picton remarried
that December to Beverly Ann
LEWIS, a primary school teacher.
With her encouragement he earned his Chartered Financial Analyst
(CFA) Charter, and started his own business, The Polymetric
Report. He retired in the year 2000 at the age of eighty. He
remained independent and active until the very end. Beverley
Ann DAVIES (née
LEWIS) died at home on November 11, 2007 at age
74, at home, with her family, after a lengthy and courageous
battle against Hepatitis C with multiple complications. Born
in 1933 in Guelph, Ontario, she often reminisced about growing
up in Peterborough during the Great Depression. After her first
day of school, she told her mother, 'I love school. I'm going
to be a teacher.' Ann grew up to be a highly respected elementary
school teacher in Hamilton, Calgary and Toronto. She took particular
pride in teaching children to read. Former students would often
greet her decades later with fond memories of her classes. Ann
married Picton
DAVIES in 1969. They enjoyed travels in Europe
and New England and had a particular love for Stowe, Vermont.
Ann often combined her love of travel with her activities in
the Peace movement and Voice of Women. She was also an active
member of Parkwoods United Church. Ann's generous, outgoing nature,
her marvelous stories and unique sense of humour brought joy
to many people. She will be deeply missed by her family and her
many Friends. Ann and Picton are survived by Ann's sister Barbara,
Picton's brother Mostyn and his sister Moya, their sons Tudor,
Morgan and Trevor, and their grandchildren Meredith and Graham.
A Celebration of Life for Ann and Picton
DAVIES will be held
at Parkwoods United Church, 85 Parkwoods Village Drive, Don Mills,
Ontario on Friday, November 16 at 1 p.m. In lieu of flowers,
donations to your favorite charity would be appreciated by their
family.
