Calm, deliberate Toronto fire captain won citation for rescue operations
Amid the noise and chaos of battling a blaze, his was the steady voice other firefighters heard through the black and blinding smoke. In the end, his career likely cost him his life
By Matthew TREVISAN, Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S8
By the time they found the woman unconscious on a couch, the apartment fire had already ventilated itself, shooting flames out a back room and into the summer night. Firefighter John CHAPPELLE calmly scooped her into his arms and carried her out of the building. For the captain of Toronto Fire Station 443, it was just another day on the job.
For 27 years, he attended fires, medical emergencies and hazardous-material accidents in the same evenhanded and methodical manner. Above the cacophony of fire alarms and smashing glass, his was always the steady voice other firefighters heard while crawling on their hands and knees through black, blinding smoke.
"Some people's voices would have been up two or three octaves," said John Getty, who joined Mr. CHAPPELLE's platoon in 2000. "His never did. His never went up and never went down… He wasn't upset, he wasn't frustrated. He was just doing what we do."
Like the time in September, 2003, when he directed the rescue of a truck driver on Highway 27 in the Toronto area. The driver had been at the wheel of a 16-metre trailer truck when a car ahead of him spun in slippery conditions. He swerved to avoid the smaller vehicle and crashed over a concrete wall. The truck plunged 20 metres onto railway tracks north of Pearson International Airport, trapping the driver in the crumpled wreckage.
Victim Survived
Mr. CHAPPELLE and his crew were in one of several emergency vehicles called to extricate the man. Using a rope line, they ferried equipment from the highway down to the wreck. The smell of diesel fuel filled the air as they trudged though thick mud, dense shrub and broken glass, yet he and his squad never wavered. The man survived, and Mr. CHAPPELLE's platoon later received a citation from the Toronto Fire Services.
John CHAPPELLE grew up in Toronto on Balliol Street, near the Davisville subway station. His father, Art, worked for the Ontario government designing the layout of many provincial parks, including Sibbald Point near Jackson's Point on the shores of Lake Simcoe. His mother Alice (NELSON) stayed home to look after John, the oldest, his sister Diane and his brother Ken.
"All of his life, he was a protector," said his sister, Diane TAHMIZIAN. " Right from the start, I remember I was in kindergarten and there were always bullies in the neighbourhood. He always made sure I wasn't bothered."
With only two years separating them, Mr. CHAPPELLE and his sister shared childhood summers at a cottage in the Bobcaygeon area, northeast of the city, where they canoed and launched bullfrogs into the water with their paddles. They stayed up late reading comics and, when they were old enough, went to the Canadian National Exhibition.
Mr. CHAPPELLE attended Northern Secondary School on Mount Pleasant Road, where he played football, rugby and basketball while nursing a passion for the arts. He played bass guitar, acted in a school musical and sang in the choir. For pocket money, he moonlighted as a disc jockey.
"At the end of Grade 9, I wanted to try out for cheerleading for Grade 10. And the only thing that was holding me back was I just couldn't nail a cartwheel," Diane said. "And so John was asking me, 'What's the problem? Why are you so upset about the tryouts? You'll do great. You'll be fine. I'm sure you're going to make the team.' "
With that, her brother the jock cartwheeled gracefully in front of her. Over the next few weeks, he continued to motivate her and, sure enough, she made the team.
Restaurant Manager
Mr. CHAPPELLE married young, right out of high school, and lived next door to his parents with his wife, Marian CUNNINGHAM, and their daughter Alyson. Throughout the 1970s, he worked a variety of jobs from meat-shop manager to a McDonald's restaurant manager.
Toward the end of the decade, he was still unclear about what he wanted to do for a career - except that he wanted it to be stable. When a family friend convinced him to apply to be a firefighter, he agreed to give it a shot, never one to turn down an opportunity for something new.
In 1980, he was hired by the Etobicoke Fire Department and started at a quiet station on Renforth Drive. In the early days, he was an eager rookie who felt frustrated that he rarely had a chance to fight a serious blaze. He eventually got many chances to demonstrate his willingness and professionalism.
In April, 1997, ammonia pipes burst at a refrigeration plant on Shorncliffe Avenue, causing one of the largest chemical fires in Etobicoke's history. For more than six hours, firefighters from several Etobicoke stations fought the blaze. From a point high above the fire, he fought the flames with a high-volume nozzle directed downward from an extendable ladder and platform. The drains became clogged by debris, and there was so much water that the firefighters worked in a knee-deep flood, Mr. Getty said.
In 1998, the Etobicoke Fire Department was amalgamated to become part of the Toronto Fire Services, and he applied for a position as a captain. By then, his first marriage had ended and he was happily remarried to Jayne WOODS, an art restorer he had met at a Toronto curling club. They had eloped to Jamaica in 1991 after finding a surprising amount in common: She was intrigued that a brawny firefighter with a mustache and bushy eyebrows would have an interest in art history. By that time, he had racked up 11 credits in four years studying part-time at York University.
After serving as an acting captain at the East Mall Station, Mr. CHAPPELLE was made captain at Station 443 on Islington Avenue. In July, 2002, he was called to an apartment fire on Dixon Road. Using a side door, he and firefighter Jim LAMONT entered the building, a two-story complex containing four units. The fire raged in a rear apartment, blasting out windows and enveloping the building in thick smoke.
After searching the first floor, they went upstairs and entered one of the apartments. There, they found a middle-aged woman unconscious and lying on a couch. She was carried out and taken to the hospital, still unconscious, and that was the last they saw of her. Like many people rescued by firefighters, no one in Mr. CHAPPELLE's crew ever learned what became of her.
Curling Champ
Outside of work, Mr. CHAPPELLE enjoyed the outdoors. There were canoe expeditions, golf games, ski trips to Europe - and curling. In 2005, he was a member of a rink that won the Ontario Firefighters Curling Championship.
In late August, 2006, he suddenly complained that he was unable see stop signs when driving. He was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an inoperable brain cancer considered by Ontario's Workplace Safety and Insurance Act to be a work-related disease.
John Arthur CHAPPELLE was born in Toronto on February 3, 1954. He died of brain cancer in Orangeville, Ontario, on September 5, 2007. He was 53. He is survived by his wife, Jayne WOODS, and Alyson, his daughter from his previous marriage. He is also survived by father Art, sister Diane and brother Ken. He is predeceased by his mother, Alice, who died in 2005. About 350 uniformed firefighters from across Ontario attended his funeral.

DONOVAN, Daniel James " Bud"
Daniel James DONOVAN, beloved father, grandfather and great-grandfather died peacefully on the morning of Wednesday, May 30th, 2007 in Toronto. He was 92. Daniel was born on June 8, 1914 in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Affectionately called 'Bud' by his Friends and family, he followed a strict golfer's diet; he lived on greens as much as possible. Already a natural at the age of 9, he quickly became an accomplished amateur golfer as a teenager and burst into prominence in the early 1930s. Having won the Manitoba Junior title in 1929 and the Manitoba Open in 1933, he was one of eight Canadian amateur golfers sent by the Royal Canadian Golf Association on a Goodwill Tour of Britain in 1935. He was the only one to reach the fifth round of the British Amateur Championship. He made quite an impression with his fine swing and long distance hitting. The press called him 'the last of the gallant Canadians.' The most outstanding performance of his golf career came later in 1935. In the first General Brock Open Championship - a tournament open to amateurs and professionals - he was runnerup to American professional, Tony Manero, beating every other U.S. and Canadian professional player. He was also the first Canadian to receive a golf scholarship to a U.S. university (University of Notre Dame in Indiana). During the Second World War, as a naval officer, he met his wife Annette, one of Air Canada's first stewardesses, at a dance at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto. By the end of the war, Bud DONOVAN had given up serious competitive golf and moved east, to work in the insurance business. Always quick to tell an entertaining story, he excelled in his lifelong career in sales. He was a member of Scarboro Golf and Country Club and gave back his enjoyment and passion for golf by working as a publicity officer for the Ontario Golf Association. He was also a colour commentator for major Canadian golf events on CFRB radio in Toronto and for Canadian Broadcasting Corporation radio and television for 15 years. Bud is survived by his three daughters Anne SCHWALM (Andrew SCHWALM,) Louise DONOVAN (Willi VOGL,) and Nora DONOVAN- WARD (Julian WARD) four grandchildren, Natalie PETTI (Tom PETTI,) Doctor Stephanie JACOBS (Dr. Larry JACOBS), Kimberley McKEOWN, and Erin McKEOWN and four great-grandchildren, Donovan, Paige, Elle and Lawrence JACOBS. Bud joins his loving wife Annette, who passed away in 1997. His ways were gentle and his sense of humour was understated. Bud had an ideal golfing temperament, a quiet and unassuming manner, and an infectious smile. His was a life of many great moments both on and off the course. A private mass and celebration of his life was held on June 2, 2007. His family would like to thank his long time physician, Jocelyn CHARLES, and all of the staff at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and Veterans' Residence for their exemplary care and support. Donations to Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, Geriatric Research or Schulich Heart Centre gratefully accepted in his memory.

Break-in cited in shootings
By Alex DOBROTA, Page A8
The teenager suspected in the double homicide that shook a quiet Scarborough neighbourhood on Wednesday morning fought off and shot dead two home intruders that targeted the house he was visiting, police said.
Livingston DAVIS, 16, was sleeping at the house on Rylander Boulevard, close to Sheppard Avenue East, shortly before 4 a.m. when the two men attempted to enter the premises, police said.
"A struggle ensues, he is armed with a gun, he shoots one, he chases the other one out of the house and shoots him," said Staff Inspector Brian RAYBOULD, head of the Toronto police homicide squad.
The first officers on the scene found Shawn DAY, 34, bleeding inside the house, and Clifford CHARLES, 43, slumped inside a black pickup truck that had jumped the curb on Rylander Boulevard and smashed into a tree.
Both men were from Toronto and both suffered a single gunshot wound to the chest. They died at a nearby hospital.
A source close to the investigation said the homicides were drug related and that the residence was a crack house.
As of yesterday, police were still hunting for Livingston. The teenager has no history of run-ins with the law or involvement in gang activity, Staff Insp. RAYBOULD said.
"The thing to do is to contact a lawyer or contact any one of the police investigators."

FLYNN, M. Patricia (née MIELKE)
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Pat FLYNN, who passed away at home on January 4, 2007, following a lengthy illness. She is survived by her loving husband of 53 years, Art FLYNN; children, Michael (Patti STUEWE,) Dartmouth; Christine (Doug) POWER, Dartmouth; Mary-Lou (Ed) DONNELLY, Halifax; Mark (Alison), South Rawdon; Janie (John) McCALL, Calgary, Alberta Peggy (Abder SAHOULI), Montague, Prince Edward Island; Carol (Peter) STORMS, Aurora, Ontario; Derek (Anne CHARLTON), Saint Margaret's Bay; Kevin, Toronto, Ontario; Paula (Robert BOUDREAU), Halifax grandchildren, Matthew and Laura FLYNN, Erin (Gerry) CLARKE and Jonathan POWER, Laura, Stephanie, Shannon and Teddy DONNELLY, Douglas and Jennifer FLYNN, Kate, Lisa and Rachel McCALL, Myriem, Malek and Anissa SAHOULI, Andrew and Sarah STORMS, Adam, Merrill and Maggie FLYNN, David and Bradley DEAN; great-grandchild, Dylan CLARKE; sister, Peggy (Graham) EDWARDS, Toronto, Ontario; numerous nieces and nephews. Born in Halifax on November 22, 1931, she was a daughter of the late Florence (MARTIN) MIELKE and Gerald MIELKE. She was predeceased by brother, Peter MIELKE, and sister, Jackie (Sr. Margaret Patricia, South Carolina). A lifelong resident of Halifax, Pat attended Saint Thomas Aquinas School and St. Pat's High School. She graduated from the Nova Scotia Normal College in 1949 and, at the age of 17, started her teaching career at Ardmore and Alexander McKay Schools in Halifax. After taking a break to raise her children, she returned briefly to teaching at Ida Mae Marriott School in Spryfield in the mid 70s. Pat was a devout Catholic, dedicating much of her time to the church and those in need. Her church work included: the Archdiocesan Liturgical Committee, the Archdiocesan Family Life Committee, Chair - St. Agnes Church Parish Council, member - Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish Council, Marriage Encounter Leader and 30 years with the Catholic Women's League. She served, as well, as a church lecturer, lay distributor and religious education instructor. She gave selflessly of herself, always finding time for the less fortunate, opening her home and her heart to many people of the years. She was passionately involved in several choirs over her lifetime including the Chebucto Community Singers, St. Agnes and Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church Choirs, 18 years with the Nova Scotia Tattoo Choir, 22 years with the Dal Chorale and countless Scratch Messiahs. Her children and grandchildren are the proud recipients of her love of song and music, as well as her great sense of humour. Much of Pat's life was spent at swimming pools, hockey rinks and baseball fields supporting her children's activities. Her years of dedication to the Waegwoltic Swim Team earned her the Mother of the Year Award. Above all, Pat was a devoted wife, mother and friend. She will be sadly missed by her family and all those whose lives she touched. Special thanks to Monica Flinn (Palliative Care nurses), Doctor Stewart Cameron, the Victorian Order of Nurses, and countless family and Friends, who supported Pat throughout her illness with care, compassion, visits, well-wishes and eucharistic ministry. Visitation will be held in J.A. Snow Funeral Home, 2666 Windsor Street, Halifax, on Saturday, January 6, from 2-4 p.m. and Sunday, January 7, from 2-4 p.m. A celebration of Pat's life will take place in Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish, 2 Melody Dr., Rockingham, on Monday, January 8, at 10 a.m. Reception to follow.
