WAECHTER,
Joseph
Joseph WAECHTER, of Hanover, passed away suddenly on Wednesday,
November 21, 2007. He was 68.
Born in Brant Township,
son of the late Andrew and Susan (nee
HEHN)
WAECHTER.
Joseph was a member of the Old Timers Hockey
League and a former member of the Bowling Mixed League. He was
an avid Slow Pitch fan, both playing and watching.
Survived by his wife
Karen (née
KERR)
WAECHTER, son Andrew (Carrie)
WAECHTER of Saint Thomas, daughter Michelle (Gary)
LANDSBOROUGH

Also survived by his brothers Lorne (Mary Lou)
WAECHTER of Hanover,
Ralph (Diane)
WAECHTER of London, sisters Wilma
REITZEL of Waterloo
and Marjorie (Willard)
LANG of Chepstow. He will be fondly remembered
by several nieces and nephews. Predeceased by daughter-in-law
Pauline WAECHTER, his brother Alfred
WAECHTER and brother-in-law
Ab REITZEL.
Visitation was held at Mighton Funeral Home, Hanover, on Friday
from 2-4 p.m. and 7-9 p.m. with Vigil Rites at 8: 30 p.m. A Funeral
Mass was held on Saturday, November 24, 2007 at 10: 30 a.m. at
Holy
Family
Church, Hanover. Father Mervin
PERERA officiated.
Interment in Holy Family Cemetery, Hanover.
Memorial donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or Canadian
Diabetes Association were appreciated as expressions of sympathy.
Joe was a husband, a father, a grandfather, a brother and a true
friend to so many.
All of Joe’s 68 years were spent working hard. By the age of
eight, Joe was working, baling hay, delivering newspapers and
working at the bowling alley, in order to help provide for his
mother. This work ethic continued all of his life.
Joe married his teenage sweetheart, Karen, in 1964 and spent
the next 43 years with his loving wife. During those years he
raised a family, ran his own business, saw his children (Andy
and Michelle) get married, and welcomed a grand_son (Dylan) into
the family. Joe’s daughter-in-law Pauline passed away in 2001.
Andy has since remarried and Joe welcomed three new grand_sons
(Michael, Braedon and Zackery) and a daughter-in-law (Carrie)
into the family. Joe welcomed a new son-in-law into the family
in 2000 (Gary) and they became close Friends.
Whenever Joe was needed by his family, he was there. Fixing up
houses for his kids, always there to lend a hand, no matter what.
His pleasures in life were simple and he enjoyed working around
the house. He had recently retired and was finishing his basement
now that he had the time.
He thoroughly enjoyed visiting with Friends over coffee at Tim
Hortons.
In his younger days, Joe was dedicated to playing baseball and
hockey, as well as snowmobiling with his wife and children.
Joe was a fervent believer in God and his Catholic faith. He
enjoyed attending church in Walkerton when his wife wasn’t working.
Like Jesus, Joe was a carpenter by trade and we are sure that
he is building a house in heaven and waiting to welcome the rest
of his family home.
Special thanks to Mighton Funeral Home for their kind treatment
of the WAECHTER family. Thank you to Constable
BREEN for adding
respect and dignity to the funeral procession.

Canada's first environment minister had orders to clean up Ontario
Appointed in 1969 by premier John Robarts, he was described by
a Toronto Telegram reporter as being like 'a sheriff from out
of the Old West.' He also twice served as solicitor-general,
resigning each time after separate scandals, writes Sandra
MARTIN.
He survived handily
By Sandra MARTIN,
Page S8
A natural politician who loved the meet-and-greet of politics,
George KERR was a cabinet minister in the Ontario governments
of John Robarts and William Davis. The first politician to hold
the environment portfolio in any jurisdiction in Canada, he was
as far-sighted in his struggles to combat pollution as he was
controversial in his attempts to ban phosphates and reduce automobile
emissions.
The only son and elder child of lumber trader George and Florence
(HINTON)
KERR, he was born in Montreal but grew up in Esquiminac
on Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula. As a child, he and his younger sister
Patricia (Patsy) went to the village school in a cart pulled
by their pony Julie. He was apparently heartbroken when his parents
decided to send him at the age of 9 to Rothesay Collegiate, a
boarding school located near Saint John. The school yearbook,
The Blue and White, calls him Buzz and says he came to the school
as a "wee mite" who "from the hour of his arrival" was into everything
"official and not quite so official." He was very athletic,
playing on all of the school teams, winning a middleweight boxing
championship and serving as captain of the football and hockey
teams in his senior year.
He graduated in 1942 and entered the undergraduate program at
the University of New Brunswick in Fredericton that fall. Barely
a year later, he tried to enlist in the armed forces, but was
diagnosed with tuberculosis when he underwent his mandatory medical.
Instead of serving overseas, he was sent to a sanatorium where
he was subjected to the clean-air cure that was standard treatment
in those days. After recovering, he worked for some time in the
lumber trade with his father before returning to university in
1949, managing to complete his degree in a year by attending
summer school. During this second stretch at University of New
Brunswick, he met a student from Spencer Island, Nova Scotia,
named Joan Merrydith (Mim)
SPICER.
They both enrolled in the
law school at Dalhousie University in Halifax in September, 1950.
Afterward, he liked to claim that he got through because she
tutored him. They were married September 1, 1951, and eventually
had three children, Larry, Margot and James.
After earning their law degrees from Dalhousie in 1953, the
KERRs
moved to Ontario, settling in Burlington in 1954, where they
both worked in the law firm Kerr and Hawken. As he had done at
boarding school two decades earlier, Mr.
KERR got into everything
"official and not quite so official" from the hour of his arrival
in Burlington, from the town council to the chamber of commerce
to the Halton County Progressive Conservative Association. He
was first elected to the Ontario Legislature in 1963 for Halton
and held his seat (which was renamed Halton West and then Burlington
South) for more than two decades, finally retiring before the
1985 election.
As a backbencher in premier John Robarts's government, he served
on a number of standing committees, including municipal affairs
and education, health and welfare, and won his riding in the
1967 provincial election with a plurality of nearly 6,000 votes.
Two years later, in June of 1969, Mr. Robarts appointed him to
cabinet in the new portfolio of energy and resources management,
with the express mandate of cleaning up Ontario's soil, air and
water. He was 45.
A reporter from the now defunct Toronto Telegram interviewed
the newly minted minister in his Queen's Park office in January
of 1970, describing him as tall, with a strong, firm jaw and
looking variously like "a sheriff from out of the Old West" and
"a trifle stiff and stern in the manner of a not-so-bad high-school
principal." Sitting behind a huge desk and smoking his ever-present
pipe, Mr. KERR said: "Pollution is the thing everybody seems
to be concerned about right now. It's just amazing how the interest
in it has boomed in the past 12 months."
He lived beside Hamilton Harbour, infamous for the belching smoke
from the Stelco and Dofasco steel smelters on its shores, and
admitted that it was "not the most beautiful body of water in
the world." He made a promise to change all that, vowing that
the bay would be clean enough to swim in within five years.
Five years later, he climbed into an old-fashioned horizontal-striped
bathing suit adorned with shoulder straps and plunged into the
water for a short but bracing swim, and emerged without any seeming
ill effects.
When William Davis succeeded Mr. Robarts as leader of the party
and as premier in 1971, he appointed Mr.
KERR as environment
minister. "He was a very able minister," Mr. Davis said yesterday,
suggesting that heading up the first environment ministry in
Canada was his major political legacy because "it was a major
departure in terms of government responsibility and George did
it and did it well." A year later, Mr. Davis shifted him to the
ministry of colleges and universities, with postsecondary schools
expanding rapidly as the baby boom shouldered its swaggering
way into secondary education.
A strong supporter of his own community, Mr.
KERR "strenuously
and successfully" resisted the inclusion of Burlington in the
formation of the Hamilton-Wentworth regional government in the
early 1970s, according to Mr. Davis. "He was very persuasive
in that regard," said Mr. Davis, who can still remember the arguments
around the cabinet table before the legislation was passed in
June of 1973. "Most people in Burlington would say that his success
in keeping Burlington as a separate community was his main accomplishment."
Mr. KERR's political life was not without controversy. He was
solicitor-general twice, resigning each time after a public clamour,
although his exile to the wilderness of the back benches was
short lived because he had never done anything illegal.
The first occasion, in July, 1975, involved the mention of his
name in the trial of former Hamilton Harbour commissioner Kenneth
ELLIOT/ELLIOTT in connection with dredging contracts. Mr. Davis reappointed
Mr. KERR to cabinet three months later for his second stint as
environment minister, where he remained until January, 1978,
when the premier shifted him back again to solicitor-general.
The second stumble was more serious. On August 14, 1978, while
Mr. KERR was solicitor-general and provincial secretary for justice,
he made a telephone call to an assistant crown attorney on behalf
of Francis
HARRISON, a constituent who was facing trial for driving
while his licence was suspended. According to Mr.
KERR's explanation,
he made the call not to attempt to influence the outcome of the
pending trial but to learn whether Mr.
HARRISON, a pipe fitter
(who had telephoned the minister at home after looking up his
number in the telephone book), would face a mandatory jail term
if convicted. The intervention quickly became public and Mr.
KERR
resigned from cabinet on September 9, 1978, in an atmosphere
that was already contaminated by John
MUNRO, another Hamilton-area
politician, who had been forced to step down the day before as
the federal labour minister after calling a judge to offer a
character reference for an accused constituent.
"I think it was something he felt personally he should do," Mr. Davis
said. "George was one of those individuals who was very anxious
to do what he felt was appropriate and that is why he resigned.
He was not pushed."
Mr. HARRISON was acquitted at a trial that November. A subsequent
report of a government inquiry into the matter questioned Mr.
KERR's
wisdom but stated that: "It does not seem that Mr.
KERR's telephone
call constituted an attempt to obstruct, pervert or defeat the
course of justice within the meaning of Section 127 of the Criminal
Code."
Although he never returned to the cabinet table, Mr.
KERR served
on a number of standing committees and was asked by Mr. Davis
to become speaker of the house in 1981, an invitation he declined.
"I think he was tired of refereeing," the former premier said.
Four years later, Mr.
KERR resigned his seat and returned to
practising law with his wife. "He was very dedicated to his family
and of course he was supported by Mim," Mr. Davis said. "I would
argue that she may have gotten more votes for him than he got
for himself. They were a great pair."
About five years ago, Mr.
KERR was diagnosed with Alzheimer's
disease. Although frail, he enjoyed what his daughter Margot
called "his last hurrah" in February when he made an appearance
at a fundraiser for Joyce Savoline, the successful Progressive
Conservative candidate in a provincial by-election in Burlington.
Although Mr.
KERR wasn't on the list of speakers, he responded
to the call when he was asked to say a few words, said party
chief John Tory, who was there to "motivate the troops" for the
upcoming vote.
"He was absolutely magnificent," Mr. Tory said of Mr.
KERR's
10-minute speech on how much he enjoyed his early days in politics.
"I think it was a very moving experience for most of the people
there, probably two-thirds of whom were far too young to have
known him as an active politician. He summoned up everything
he had."
In the middle of April, Mr.
KERR suffered a fall and had to go
into hospital.
George Albert
KERR was born in Montreal on January 27, 1924.
He died of pneumonia in a Burlington hospital on May 21, 2007.
He was 83. He is survived by his wife Mim, three children, four
grandchildren, his younger sister Patricia Lawson and his extended
family.

KERR,
Merrydith (née
SPICER)
After struggling with a bronchial infection and the recent loss
of her beloved husband George, 'Mim' peacefully passed away early
Thursday morning, June 7, 2007, at her home in Burlington. Beloved
mother to Larry, Margot and James, mother-in-law to Ellen and
Dana, and grandmother to Spencer, Callaghan, Martha and Maxwell,
Merrydith was born on July 14 (Bastille Day), 1930 on the kitchen
table of the family farm in Spencer's Island, Nova Scotia. Daughter
to Peggy and Isaac
SPICER, a Harvard educated lawyer and village
patriarch, and brother to Peter and Max, all predeceased. Her
strict upbringing at home and a single room schoolhouse all changed
when she attended Edgehill School for Girls, the University of
New Brunswick, and Dalhousie Law School where she was the only
woman in her graduating class. Merrydith was known to tutor her
classmates, and her husband credited her with his academic accomplishments.
A natural student with a photographic memory, an innate artist
and member of the varsity basketball teams, she ultimately settled
in Burlington, Ontario where she raised her family, worked at
the Kerr and Hawken Law firm, and donated her time to the Salvation
Army, March of Dimes, Canadian Cancer Society, and The University
Women's Club, all the while a supporting champion of her husband's
political career. Until her recent health challenges, Merrydith
was an avid reader, lover of language, the theatre, and the visual
arts, history and politics. Those who knew Merrydith will miss
her quick wit, outstanding seafood chowder, and passion for Friends
and fun. Her door was always open. This summer, a memorial service
will be held for Mim in Spencer's Island, her Nova Scotia home,
where she bloomed like the lupins and the lilacs. Visitation
at Smith's Funeral Home, 485 Brant Street (one block north of
City Hall), Burlington, (905-632-3333), on Sunday, June 10, 2007
from 3-4 p.m., followed by a ceremony at 4: 30 p.m. If desired,
in lieu of flowers, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society
would be sincerely appreciated. www.smithsfh.com
