Charles
Patrick
By Mary MORAN,

A16
Husband, son, brother, teacher, businessman, artist, runner,
skier, cyclist, adventurer. Born September 12, 1958, in Toronto.
Died September 30, 2006, of cancer in Barrie, Ontario, aged 48.
As far back as 1970, I can remember sitting in my 12-year-old
brother Michael's bedroom wondering why he had a paperback book
sitting on his shelf that seemed to be written for grown ups.
The well-worn and well-read book, titled Winners Never Quit,
lived in my brother's room for years to come.
From a very young age until his very last breath in life, Mike
(who was two years my senior, a twin and the youngest -- by 15 minutes
of my four older brothers) astonished me with his dogged approach
to life. Winners Never Quit was his mantra to live, and as it
turned out, to die by.
Mike had many accomplishments in his 48 years. At the age of
10 he won a half marathon, running it in one hour and 48 minutes.
That same summer, he went on to run the Toronto Police Marathon
where he held the title (and may still do) as the youngest finisher.
He completed the race in approximately five hours in the heat
of August, with a police escort, to crowds of disbelieving onlookers
cheering him into the Canadian National Exhibition stadium.
By the time Mike turned 23, inspired by the tragic death of our
second-eldest brother, he chased his dream that he mapped out
on the walls of our basement. He rode his custom-made 10-speed
bike around North America, riding 15,500 miles in 15 months --
solo.
Mike continued to have many accomplishments in his adult life.
To mention a few, he achieved his Level 4 in Nordic Ski Instructor
designation, became technical ski adviser, was a part-time teacher
at Seneca College, partnered with his wife in a successful outdoor
adventure store, and turned into a competitive adventure racer.
Unbeknownst to Mike, he inspired, encouraged, and educated most
everyone he met during his remarkable life.
When Mike fell sick in March 2006, it shocked our family and
the many people he came to know through his adventures. Doctors
and nurses alike could not believe Mike's will to live. He took
on his illness like every other challenge in his life -- with
steadfast determination. In spite of his best effort to fight
his disease, sadly, it soon became clear that he would not win
this battle. When Mike faced this harsh reality in the middle
of September, he accepted it and insisted on having a party at
the hospital the day before he died so people would remember
him in a happy atmosphere. He spent the last few pain-filled
hours of his life ensuring, he said, the perfect thing to make
the hundreds of people that came to visit him feel better. Mike
lived his life valiantly and to the fullest even in his final
days.
Before he passed on the morning of September 30, he asked us
to have a celebration of his life rather than a funeral. Held
at one of his favourite golf courses, in a room with a 270-degree
view of the spectacular fall colours, more than 600 people came.
But unlike a traditional funeral, people did not weep and whisper.
They studied the picture-boards of Mike's life, told stories
of his adventures, read heartfelt poems and articles and sang
cheerful songs in his honour. People walked away not sad for
Mike's passing but grateful they knew Mike during his incredibly
short time on earth.
For me, watching Mike during this challenging last six months
was analogous to the many times I stood on the side of the road
or track cheering my lifelong hero on as he ran a race. In spite
of the horrific pain he endured, he never ever quit. He is, and
will always be, a winner.
Mary is Michael's sister.

MAIER,
Karl▼
Robert▼
October 9, 1933 Zeltweg, Steiermark, Austria - August 30, 2007
Scarborough, Ontario, Canada
Peacefully and with his family at his side, Karl was gently lifted
to Heaven by angels after a long illness. Husband, best friend
and soul mate to his wife Liesbeth of 53 years, outstanding father
to sons Robert (Barbara-Anne) and Richard (Daniela), and to his
loving daughter Monica (James); brother to Christl (Otmar) and
Heinz (Christine) from Austria and Annemarie (Tony) of Germany.
Opa captivated his 7 grandchildren, James, Natalie, Ryan, Erik,
Olivia, Benjamin and Isabel with stories about nature and his
youth. They will greatly miss his loving and caring guidance.
Born in the mountains of Austria and a lover of the outdoors,
Karl was an avid downhill skier, fly fisherman, hiker, forester,
sailor, windsurfer and golfer. He treasured the cottage that
he and Liesbeth built with their own hands on Chandos Lake Ontario.
Karl passed these passions on to his children and grandchildren
and to anyone who was fortunate enough to enjoy some time up
at his 'Pleasant Point'. He came to Canada in 1953 at the age
of 19 as a trained tool and die machinist and as an engineer from
Voest Alpine in Liezen Austria, landing in Toronto working for
English Electric (later General Electric Canada) building Canada's
first nuclear turbines and retiring only this year as an entrepreneur
and owner of PUMA Engineering, the company he founded in
1979. With a smile that could tame any wild beast, Karl had the
ability to make Friends in any type of environment and those
Friendships, spanning the globe, have lasted a lifetime. Over
the years Karl was always proudly and stubbornly, fair and honest,
black 'n' white in his dealings never grey. A special thank you
to Karl's long time buddy, Doctor Ed
MORAN of Millbrook, Ontario
who came to visit every week. Ed was generous with his love and
caring advice and the two enjoyed their weekly discussions about
books, politics and the 'Black Hole' way out there. A memorial
is planned for 2 p.m. on Thursday, September 6th, 2007 at McDougall and
Brown Funeral Home, 2900 Kingston Road, Scarborough, Ontario
M1M 1N5, 416-267-4656. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate
a donation to Doctor Lorne

Neurologist▼ at Sunnybrook Hospital

COOPER,

Peacefully, at Ian Anderson House on December 9, 2007 after a
heroic battle with cancer. Born September 20, 1945, Al is predeceased
by his father Stanley Allan
COOPER, survived by his 97 year-old
mother, Isabelle Newcham
COOPER.
Loving and devoted husband of
23 years to Karen, cherished father of Tom and Alicia. Fondly
remembered by his in-laws Tom and Mona
MORAN; brother-in-law
to Damian, and Kevin and Tracie. 'Special' Uncle to Sarah and
Hannah. A man of tremendous honesty and integrity, Al was uncompromising
in his principles. Never too busy to stop and say hello to those
he knew, and those he didn't necessarily know, Al always put
others first. His family extended to hundreds as he genuinely
appreciated and respected the efforts of all those who supported
him, directly and indirectly, in his various positions throughout
his career. Most recently as Chief Executive Officer of The Canadian
Depository for Securities Limited, Al was highly respected in
his field, both domestically and internationally. Having lost
his arm to a very rare form of cancer, Al was truly overwhelmed
by the volume of messages of support and encouragement received
from around the world. An avid skier and accomplished golfer,
Al was particularly attached to the Collingwood area where, over
the last 35 years, he enjoyed the tranquillity of his 'oasis'
and looked forward to spending quality time with family and Friends.
Always remembered for that eternal smile and twinkle in his eye
right to the end, Al had a presence that will be sadly missed
by his family, Friends and business colleagues. Sincere thanks
to this team of dedicated and compassionate specialists: Doctor Howard
Seiden, Doctor Brian O'Sullivan, Doctor Peter Ferguson, Doctor David Hogg,
Dr. Robert Sauls and Doctor John Radwan and their respective nursing
support personnel. Warm thanks also to the staff and volunteers

Barat Residence, 1455 Summer Street, Halifax, on December 1, 2007.
She was a daughter of the late William A.
McCARTHY and Rosa D.
RUSSELL. Jo entered the Society of the Sacred Heart in 1937 in
Albany, New York where she made her first vows in 1940 and final
vows in 1946. Her early education took place in Quebec City where
she attended the High School of the Religious of Jesus-Marie
in Sillery. She went on to attend Laval University, Seattle University,
Université de Montréal and the University of San Francisco where
she obtained an M.A. in Theology. Jo began her teaching career
in Vancouver in 1940 and subsequently taught in Montreal and

her care and compassion. She had a strong love for the Church
and in 1978, she eagerly responded to the call to serve the Church
of Canada as Ecumenical Officer at the Canadian Council of Catholic
Bishops in Ottawa, a position that she held for several years.
After this she moved to Toronto where she served with the Paulist
Priests in Ecumenism. She served in the leadership of the Religious

Czech wartime refugee became one of Canada's greatest composers
Originally a pianist, he forced himself to write a fugue a week
until he had mastered composition. He rejected avant-garde electronic
and 12-tone techniques in favour of laments and tributes that
probably drew inspiration from his memories of Europe, writes
Sandra MARTIN
By Sandra MARTIN,
Page S9
A Czech refugee from Nazism, Oskar
MORAWETZ was 23 when he arrived
in Toronto, but he remained a European in his sensibilities and
his musicianship throughout his long and prolific career as one
of Canada's best known and most frequently performed composers.
Known for his deep emotion, lyricism and melodic line, Prof.
MORAWETZ
wrote more than 100 orchestral and chamber works, including Carnival
Overture, Piano Concerto No. 1, Memorial to Martin Luther King
and From the Diary of Anne Frank. His music, both vocal and instrumental,
was performed by such musicians as Glenn
GOULD,
Maureen
Forrester,
Ben Heppner, Anton Kuerti, Yo-Yo Ma, Lois Marshall and Zubin
Mehta.
His knowledge of the great European composers was encyclopedic,
which made him a valuable teacher and mentor. In his own work,
he eschewed his colleagues' embrace of avant-garde electronic
and 12-tone techniques in favour of deeply felt emotional laments
and tributes that probably drew their inspiration from his memories
of Czechoslovakia, as it was before Hitler occupied the country,
and the trauma both of his own escape and the horrific fate of
many of his Friends and extended family members.
Pianist
Mr.
Kuerti remembered Prof.
MORAWETZ as a composer "whose
eclectic style was reminiscent of music written 50 to 75 years
earlier, as were, among others, Bach and Brahms in their time.
"He was in no way experimental or avant-garde, during a time
when radical innovation and destruction of tradition were highly
prized by the critics and other would-be oracles, if not by the
general public. For this he earned considerable disdain. But
his music is absolutely sincere, just as his personality was,
and it was extremely well crafted and has a distinct aroma of
its own.
"He had an uncanny memory for a great deal of music from the
past, and from his acquaintance with it he knew thoroughly all
about balance, form, orchestration and sound colours. Had he
been a visual artist, one would admire how wonderfully he could
draw, rather than just splash paint on a canvas. I think some
of his best works should continue to keep a foothold in the repertoire."
As well as two Juno awards, three senior fellowships from the
Canada Council and a Golden Jubilee Medal, Prof.
MORAWETZ was
awarded the Orders of Ontario and Canada. Although he could speak
several languages, he never lost his heavy Czech accent.
Oskar MORAWETZ was born January 17, 1917, in Svetla nad Sazavou,
Czechoslovakia, the second
son of four children of a secular
Jewish couple, Richard and Frida
(GLASER)
MORAWETZ.
His father
made his living running jute factories that had been founded
by his grandfather. When Oskar was 3, the family moved to Upice,
a mill town in the foothills of the Sudeten mountains in western
Czechoslovakia, where Mr.
MORAWETZ and his older brother owned
a jute factory, although they continued to spend their summers
at the ancestral family estate in Svetla. As a child, Oskar loved
building blocks, playing the piano and listening to music. When
he was 10, his father moved the family to Prague so that the
children could attend high school. They lived in a large apartment
in the centre of Prague close to theatres and coffee houses and
enjoyed an affluent, cultured lifestyle, complete with skiing
vacations at Christmas and Easter.
By 1932, Mr.
MORAWETZ was president of the International Cotton
Congress, and Oskar was studying piano and theory at the Prague
conservatoire under Karel Hoffmeister and Jaroslav Kricka, in
addition to his academic classes. Fascinated by music, Oskar
was barely interested in other subjects and did poorly in school
despite extra tutoring. He graduated in 1935 and then suffered
such a severe nervous breakdown (exacerbated by a fear that his
fingers would lose the ability to play the piano) that his parents
took him to Vienna to see a psychiatrist, who treated him for
several weeks before the overwhelming sadness lifted.
Oskar had such an acutely developed ability to sight-read orchestral
scores that George Szell recommended him for a position as assistant
conductor of the Prague Opera. Despite his longing to become
a musician, he never questioned his father's wish that he take
forestry at university. In 1937, two years after he began studying
forestry, he finally won his father's permission to move to Vienna
to study piano. A year later, after he watched Adolf Hitler parade
through the streets of Vienna, the anti-Semitism he had already
endured increased dramatically and, following a run-in with the
Gestapo, he headed home to Prague.
That September, England and France signed the Munich Agreement,
giving Germany the Sudetenland, the sections of Czechoslovakia
that were heavily populated with Germans and contained most of
the country's fortifications. Mr.
MORAWETZ sent Oskar to Paris,
ostensibly to study music, but really to get him out of the country,
and sent his son John and daughter Sonja to England. On March 15,
1939, Hitler marched his troops into Prague, slept in the Royal
Castle and boasted that Czechoslovakia had ceased to exist. Mr.
MORAWETZ
was doubly marked because of his Friendship with political leaders
Jan Masaryk and Edward Benes. Nevertheless, he managed to acquire
exit permits for himself and his wife and fled to England, then
sailed for Canada, arriving in September of 1939.
Oskar, thinking he was safe in Paris, where he was enjoying his
musical life immensely, had declined to accompany his parents.
But he was treated like an enemy alien and his bank account was
frozen. After a series of harrowing near-arrests, he acquired
an exit visit that took him from France to Italy by way of Switzerland,
where he was helped by a former business associate of his father.
In March of 1940, three months before the fall of France, he
flew from Rome to the Canary Islands and boarded a ship sailing
to the Dominican Republic. From there, he set off for Canada,
landing on June 17, 1940. His brother Herbert and sister Sonja
had come here in December of 1939; his brother John and his bride
Maureen arrived after the war in November of 1946. The family
was finally safely reunited in Toronto, although many of their
relatives had been murdered in concentration camps. By then,
Oskar, who had been rejected for military service because a chest
X-ray had revealed dormant tuberculosis cells, had become a naturalized
Canadian citizen.
From afar, Oskar had seen Canada as a cultural backwater, but
it actually provided him with a nurturing artistic environment.
He lived with his parents and dedicated himself to studying music.
He graduated with a bachelor's degree in music (1944) and a doctorate
in composition (1953) from the University of Toronto, studying
under Leo SMITH and Albert
GUERRERO -- two of his fellow piano
students were Mr.
GOULD and John Beckwith. Initially, he wanted
to be a pianist, but because he had to write an original composition
to complete the prerequisites for his bachelor's degree, he forced
himself to write a fugue a week.
"He was very frustrated at first," said his daughter Claudia,
"but after writing 40 or 50 of them, he found them easier to
do." His graduate composition was his first string quartet, Opus 1,
and it won a Composers, Authors, and Publishers Association of
Canada award. In 1946, he began teaching at the Royal Conservatory
of Music, was appointed to the faculty of the University of Toronto
as an assistant professor six years later, where he continued
to teach composition and harmony for the next three decades.
On June 7, 1958, at the age of 40, he married Ruth
SHIPMAN, a
pianist and piano teacher from London, Ontario, in a ceremony
at Bloor Street United Church in Toronto. (Mr.
GOULD played the
organ.) The
MORAWETZes settled in a house in Forest Hill, with
him occupying an upstairs room furnished with a Heintzman piano
and a large oak desk, where he composed music. There was a second
piano in the living room, a Steinway grand, that Prof.
MORAWETZ
played occasionally, but it was used much more frequently by
his wife, who gave music lessons there. Her office, aside from
the kitchen, was in the basement.
Two years after his wedding, Prof.
MORAWETZ won the first of
three Senior Arts Fellowships from the Canada Council, which
gave the young couple the opportunity to travel in Europe, attending
concerts and making connections with musicians and, coincidentally,
conceiving Claudia, their first child (now a computer scientist)
who was born in 1962. Their son Richard (an economist) followed
in 1966.
About this time, Russian cellist Mstislav Rostropovich asked
Prof. MORAWETZ to compose a work for cello and orchestra. He
said later that he was having trouble finding the inspiration
to write a note until he watched the "slow, sad and very moving"
funeral procession for Martin Luther King in Atlanta, three days
after the civil-rights leader's assassination on April 4, 1968.
When he saw the inscription on Rev. King's gravestone, taken
from his favourite spiritual - "Free at last, thank God Almighty
I am free at last!" - he resolved to write a work dedicated to
Rev. King's memory: "I saw clearly in front of me the form, content
and orchestration of my composition." Memorial to Martin Luther
King was first performed by the Montreal Symphony Orchestra in
Another death, long after the fact, inspired another of his memorable
musical eulogies. In a radio interview in 1990, Prof.
MORAWETZ
spoke about the inspiration for From the Diary of Anne Frank
(1970), explaining that he hadn't read the diary when it was
published in the early 1950s because it reminded him too painfully
of the fate of so many of his Friends and family members. When
he read it in 1968, he was haunted by the entry in which Anne
writes about her friend Hanneli Goslar ("Lies Goosens" in the
published diary), who was arrested and sent to a concentration
camp while the Frank family was in hiding in Amsterdam. The two
girls met up again briefly in Bergen-Belsen in the last months
of the war. "I still think it's the most moving passage of the
whole book… [it] is nothing else but a prayer for the survival
of her friend Lies," Prof.
MORAWETZ once said. Soprano Lois Marshall
premiered the work with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra in May
of 1970.
Prof. MORAWETZ's marriage was not a harmonious one. The couple
separated in 1982 and divorced two years later. At 67, Prof.
MORAWETZ
found himself not only divorced, but retired from his teaching
job at the U of T. After some initial dilemmas about housekeeping,
he settled happily into a busy lifestyle of composing, giving
guest lectures and travelling for most of the next decade. He
gave his last performance as a pianist in March, 1992. Two years
later, the Elmer Iseler Singers sang one of his last major commissions,
Prayer for Freedom, at the inaugural concert in the North York
Performing Arts Centre. The work, which was commissioned by the
Canada Council, draws on two anti-slavery poems written by 19th-century
African-American writer Frances E.W. Harper, reflects Prof.
MORAWETZ's
thematic commitment to human rights and social justice.
The following year, in May of 1995, he went back to Prague, the
city he had fled nearly 60 years earlier. He fell into a depression
that was compounded by his failing eyesight and the arthritis
that stiffened his fingers and made it difficult for him to play
the piano. The breakdown may have been a reverberation of the
severe depression he suffered as a teenager, with both episodes
linked by a fear of being cut off from his music. He was never
able to compose music again.
Six years later, he fell and hit his head, suffering brain damage
that severely affected his memory and his ability to express
himself. In 2002, after being diagnosed with Parkinson's syndrome,
he moved into a retirement home in Toronto. Several symphony
orchestras in Canadian cities, including Toronto, Edmonton and
Ottawa played concerts of his works in January to celebrate his
90th birthday, and the University of Toronto music faculty organized
a tribute to the man and the musician.
Oskar MORAWETZ was born on January 17, 1917, in Svetla nad Sazavou,
Czechoslovakia. He died in his sleep at Leaside Retirement Residence
in Toronto on June 13, 2007, of complications from Parkinson's
syndrome. He was 90. He is survived by two children, two grandchildren
and extended family. There will be a memorial service on June 28
at 7 p.m. in Walter Hall at the U of T's Edward Johnson building.
