City loses 'remarkable force'
By Patrick
MALONEY and Claire
NEARY, Sun Media, Wed., December 26,
Beryl IVEY, the London icon whose philanthropy touched education,
health care and the arts in London and beyond, has died. She
was 82.
Though she and her husband of nearly 60 years, Dick, moved to
Toronto about 18 months ago, her love of the place she called
home since arriving for university never waned, her family says.
"She missed London enormously," her son Richard
IVEY said from
his Toronto home last night.
"She loved London and she loved many of the institutions, big
and small, in London."
IVEY was felled by a heart attack Sunday and hospitalized in
Toronto. She died there yesterday morning, three days shy of
her 83rd birthday.
But on Monday -- Christmas Eve -- she was in "vintage form,"
her son said. "So, we all got to say hi and bye."
As news of the death spread yesterday, praise poured in for
IVEY,
who, along with her husband, donated an estimated $150 million
and left a lasting mark on the Forest City.
"This city and province and country has lost a great Canadian,"
said Tony DAGNONE, former chief executive of the London Health
Sciences Centre.
At the University of Western Ontario, whose prestigious business
school bears the Ivey name, there's no overstating the effects
of her generosity, said University of Western Ontario president
Paul DAVENPORT.
"I feel an enormous admiration for all she's done for London
and for Londoners," he said. "The Ivey family is the foremost
benefactor of (Western). There's no doubt about that."
Far from just a financial donor, the modest, five-foot-two
IVEY
believed passionately in the institutions she supported, said
London member of provincial parliament Deb
MATTHEWS.
IVEY's legacy
in London, said Mayor Anne Marie
DECICCO-
BEST, will live on indefinitely.
A private funeral will be held in London Friday, her birthday,
and a memorial at a later date. She will be buried in London.
Born Beryl
NURSE in 1924 in Chatham to a Canadian army lieutenant-colonel
who taught elementary school, and a former military nurse,
IVEY
was a celebrated track star who arrived at University of Western
Ontario in 1943. It was the academic scholarship she received
that would inspire her generosity years later, she said in a
2005 interview.
She graduated valedictorian from University of Western Ontario-affiliated
Brescia College -- to which she would years later give $750,000
for a library expansion -- and became a teacher at Beal secondary
school in London.
She married Dick
IVEY, who she met in her first year at University
of Western Ontario, and joined his wealthy family, co-founders
of the Empire Brass Manufacturing Co., now known as Emco.
In the 1950s, the pair had four children, to whom Friends say
they passed along their sense of generosity. It was Dick's father,
Richard G.
IVEY, who in 1947 incorporated the Ivey Foundation.
Beryl is credited with the business-like approach to philanthropy
the family adopted in the 1970s.
She and Dick passed along control of the foundation to their
four children in 1997.
The list of organizations the Ivey generosity helped is long
and distinguished: University of Western Ontario and the London
Health Sciences Centre, the Grand Theatre, Museum London, the
Canadian Medical Hall of Fame and Parkwood Hospital.
For Beryl and Dick, travel also was a passion. Business often
took them to Europe, but they also made several trips to Africa
and to the remote Arctic.
They were art enthusiasts, and Beryl's love of the outdoors was
referenced by Friends last night, with one calling her an "amazing
gardener."
To celebrate the 55th anniversary of their mother's graduation
from Western,
IVEY's children created the Beryl Ivey Garden at
the university, which includes plants from her own garden.
About two years ago the couple moved to Toronto to be closer
to their children, effectively severing the historic family's
last physical presence in London.
In June, Beryl was named to the Order of Canada. It was an honour
she eagerly anticipated receiving this February, friend Bill
BRADY of London said last night. While she will be remembered
for her generosity,
BRADY -- who called
IVEY "a remarkable force"
said she was anything but a cheque-writer. "She was no pushover.
"You had to make a strong case for (support); you had to prove
it was worthwhile."

Benefactor Beryl
IVEY dead at 82

Toronto -- Beryl
IVEY, an iconic philanthropist who for decades
supported education, health care and the arts across Ontario
and beyond, died yesterday at 82.
Ms. IVEY suffered a heart attack Sunday and was hospitalized
in Toronto.
She died there yesterday morning, three days shy of her 83rd
birthday.
Ms. IVEY's son Richard said that his mother was in "vintage form"
right up until her death.
As news of the death slowly spread, praise poured in for Ms.
IVEY,
who, along with her husband, donated an estimated $150-million
to various causes through the Ivey Foundation.
"This city and province and country has lost a great Canadian,"
said Tony DAGNONE, former chief executive of the London Health
Sciences Centre.
At the University of Western Ontario, whose business school now
bears the Ivey name, the effects of her generosity cannot be
overstated, University of Western Ontario president Paul

said. A private funeral will take place in London on Friday and
a memorial will be held at a later date.

Her friend Bill Brady - who called Ms.
IVEY "a remarkable force"
- said she was "no pushover" when it came to cash.
"You had to make a strong case for [financial support]. You had
to prove it was worthwhile. I can't think of another philanthropic
family who did the kind of research they did."
