fifty-five years. Devoted father of John (Joy

Loving grandfather of Matthew and Jamie
DONALD. Dear brother
of Joan GREEN of St. Albert, Alberta, and uncle to her daughters
Valerie, Jill and Alison. Predeceased by his brother David and
parents Clara and Harvey
HENSHAW of Hamilton. Doug was born in
Hamilton in 1923. He graduated from Delta Collegiate in Hamilton
in 1942. He then attended the University of Toronto, graduating
with a B.A. Sc. in 1946, M.A. Sc. in 1948 and PhD in 1951 as
a member of the first graduating class of the Institute of Aerophysics.
During the 1940s he worked for A.V. Roe (Avro) Canada. After
completing his PhD, which involved the construction of a supersonic
wind tunnel, he joined the National Research Council's National
Aeronautical Establishment in Arnprior. He moved with the National
Aeronautical Establishment to Ottawa in July 1953 and worked
there until he moved to De Havilland Aircraft in Toronto in 1956.
In 1966 he took the family to California, where he worked on
Lockheed's Supersonic Transport. In 1967 he returned to Canada,
working for a time in Kitchener establishing the new Conestoga
College. In 1968, he returned to Ottawa to work for the National
Research Council, where he remained until his retirement in 1986.
Doug had a lifelong fascination for airplanes, from his boyhood
entries in model aircraft competitions and his enthusiasm for
airshows and air museums, to his close following of the development
of Boeing's Dreamliner. He was also a keen traveller and photographer
and in his retirement, an avid amateur genealogist. Until his
final few weeks, he was cared for by Marilyn at home in Edwards,
where the family has lived since 1970. His brother David's problems
with mental illness prompted Doug to support Ottawa's Salus Corporation

may be made in lieu of flowers. Family and Friends are invited
to pay their respects at a Memorial Visitation at the Daley Family

Manhunt in Huron County
Ontario Provincial Police swarm a rural Huron County township
seeking Jesse
IMESON, 22, right, wanted in a Windsor killing.
By Kate DUBINSKI and April
KEMICK, Sun Media, Sun., July 22,
Const. Charlie
RAE of the Huron Ontario Provincial Police stands
watch over the perimeter of a cordoned area just south of Crediton,
where police continued their hunt last night for a suspect in
the slaying of a Windsor man. (Susan
BRADNAM,
Sun
Media)
Police officers and dogs combed a rural area of Huron County
yesterday as they searched for an "armed and dangerous" suspect
in a Windsor homicide.
Dozens of Ontario Provincial Police officers and dogs scoured
a five-kilometre-wide stretch of land in Stephen Township --
from Ausable Line to Parr Line north of Mount Carmel Drive --
in search of Jesse Norman
IMESON, 22.
IMESON is wanted by police in connection with the slaying of
Carlos RIVERA, 26, of Lasalle.
The search for
IMESON -- which earlier had police scouring Grand
Bend, after investigators found the slain man's car there --
began when
RIVERA's
Friends reported him missing to Windsor police
on Wednesday.
He was last seen at 6 a.m. that day.
Investigators tracing
RIVERA's movements went to the Tap, a gay
strip club in Windsor where he tended bar.
RIVERA didn't show
up for his Wednesday night shift, which wasn't like him, Friends
said.
RIVERA was last seen in his silver two-door Honda Civic, which
was being driven by
IMESON, police said.
Police went to
IMESON's
Erie
Street apartment in Windsor Thursday
night and found
RIVERA's "decomposing" body, said Windsor police
Staff
Sgt.
William
DONNELLY.
Police then found
RIVERA's car in Grand Bend early Friday.
There, investigators obtained video of
IMESON and another man
at Gables, a Main Street bar.
The surveillance images were taken sometime between Wednesday
and Friday, police said.
Police fear the man in the video with
IMESON might be in danger,
and searched the town for clues to their whereabouts.
"We've been doing door-to-door searches, going to businesses
and asking them if they recognize anyone," Lambton Ontario Provincial
Police
Const.
Todd
MONAGHAN said yesterday.
"We're hoping the public knows something, or perhaps Mr.
IMESON
can put an end to this and come speak to us."
The man with
IMESON has collar-length hair and was wearing a
dark ball cap and white shirt, police said.
IMESON is six-foot-one, 200 pounds with short, almost shaved
brown hair, brown eyes and numerous tattoos on his arms.
Windsor police said
IMESON is known to police.
Last night, an Ontario Provincial Police helicopter joined the
manhunt for
IMESON in Huron County.
As night fell, marked and unmarked cruisers -- along with armed
officers -- lined a perimeter in Stephen Township that framed
corn fields, wooded areas and the Ausable River.
Passing motorists were warned not to pick up hitchhikers, and
area homeowners were told to keep vehicles and homes locked.
"I've got my doors locked and I'm staying inside, because you
just don't know," said one woman, who didn't want her name used.
Wayne GLANVILLE, whose property borders the search area, said
it's rare to see such a police presence in the quiet countryside.
"It makes me a little nervous," he said of the suspect on the
loose.
The Stephen Township area is full of nooks and crannies where
a suspect could hide, said Huron Ontario Provincial Police Const. Jeff
WALRAVEN.
"There's so many different avenues -- trees, bushes, holes,"
he said.
But scouring for suspects is "something the Ontario Provincial
Police excels at," he added.
WALRAVEN wouldn't comment as to how long police would remain
on the perimeter.
RIVERA was a "nice guy" who always had a smile for everyone,
said one Tap employee who didn't want to be named.
"It's really scary. I'm hoping the police can find who did this."
An autopsy on
RIVERA was slated for yesterday in London. No results
have been released.

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

Father, sons die in two separate crashes
By Geoff NIXON,
Page
A10
Members of an Ottawa Valley family are reeling from the loss
of two adult brothers and their father in a pair of tragic automobile
crashes late in the Labour Day weekend.
Ricky LANDRIAULT, 36, of the Township of Greater Madawaska, was
found in his sport utility vehicle on Tuesday morning near Calabogie,
Ontario
Police believe he was speeding at the time of his crash and that
the wheels of his vehicle slipped off the pavement. When he tried
to correct his path, he veered across the road and struck a large
tree.
He died alone at the scene.
Renfrew
Ontario
Provincial Police Constable Janice
SAWBRIDGE
said yesterday Mr.
LANDRIAULT had last been seen at the Lannin
Funeral Home in nearby Smiths Falls.
He had been planning the funerals for his brother and father,
who were killed in a crash in Montague Township earlier in the
weekend.
Louis LANDRIAULT
Jr., 40, and his father, Louis
LANDRIAULT Sr.,
68, died when the car they were travelling in - a Dodge Neon
driven by Louis Sr. - crashed into a hydro pole late Sunday afternoon.
Police said they, too, were speeding and lost control of their
vehicle.
Constable SAWBRIDGE said the
LANDRIAULT family deaths were the
latest in a string of preventable collisions that have plagued
Ontario roadways this summer.
"It's been horrible," she said. "We've said it all summer: 'Buckle
up, slow down, stop the aggressive driving.' "
Neither Ricky nor Louis Jr. were wearing seatbelts at the time
of their deaths.
"Look at what this poor family now has to go through," Constable
SAWBRIDGE said.
Perry SSAINTBIN, a family friend who had known the brothers and
their father for five years, said yesterday he mourns most for
those left behind - the 15-year-old and three-year-old sons of
Louis Jr., who are going to grow up without their dad, their
uncle and their grandfather.
"Both the kids are just hurting inside so bad, Mr.
SSAINTBIN
said yesterday, fighting back tears.

said yesterday that Louis Jr. and his father were trying to catch
up to another vehicle. The other vehicle - driven by Sharon
DONNELLY,
37, common-law wife of Louis Jr. - was so far ahead they could
not even see it at the time of their crash.
The couple had just had a fight, Ms.
DONNELLY said, adding she
had wanted to have a temporary separation and Louis Jr. was upset.
She then took a drive from the house they shared in Smiths Falls
to let things cool off, and he and his father had followed.
Now she will never get to see him again.
"I didn't want to leave him," Ms. Donnelly said yesterday. "This
was the man I was going to stand beside the day he died - when
he was 80."
Although the two had only met last December, they had planned
to get married in three years time.
"He was the love of my life, he was very generous," Ms.
DONNELLY
said of Louis Jr. "I waited 37 years to meet a man just like
that. He was perfect in every way."
The two brothers and their father will have a joint memorial
service at the same funeral home where Ricky helped to plan services
for Louis Jr., and Louis Sr., only hours before his death.

DONNELLY.
Heather was born and grew up in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and was the

Heather commenced her career as a lawyer with the Federal Government

litigator. In 1980, she joined a multinational corporation as
in-house counsel on domestic and international commercial transactions.
During her career, Heather contributed to the publication of

Bar Association, and taught at the Ontario Bar Admission course.
After she retired in 1984, Heather devoted herself to volunteer
work. She spearheaded the widely known and successful "Look Good…Feel

Margaret's Ontario Cancer Institute, she served on its Executive
and Advisory Committees, and was President of its Hospital Services

SHEPPARD steered United Way
"Bigger than life," he was at the helm of the agency for 16 years.
By Randy RICHMOND, Sun Media, Tues., October 9, 2007
A "bigger than life" man, who led London's United Way for 16 years,
has died.
Barry SHEPPARD, 76, was remembered yesterday as a man's man with
a gruff exterior and a soft spot for anyone who needed a hand
up.
"He always reminded me of the Marlborough man," said Don
DONNER,
executive director of the Boys' and Girls' Club of London.
"He sat tall in the saddle. He was bigger than life. He could
carry a shot of whiskey in one hand and smoke in the other.
"But he really was concerned about those less fortunate. He always
cared about the little guy."
SHEPPARD retired as United Way president in 1989 after 16 years
at the helm. He died Friday in London.
SHEPPARD's long tenure gave stability to an organization under
fire from within and without, that had had 11 directors in 13 years
and the sudden and mysterious resignation of his predecessor.
"He took the rudder in a firm hand and took the community forward,"
DONNER said.
SHEPPARD was his mentor and friend,
DONNER said.
Every meeting between the two began first with talk of wives
and children,
DONNER remembered.
"He certainly cared first and foremost for his family."
SHEPPARD was born during the Depression and his parents' struggles
must have made an impression on him,
DONNER said.
"He would do anything for someone who tried to improve their
life."
Yet, he never pulled punches, either.
"You always knew where you stood with Barry,"
DONNER said.
"You would always know he was around by his big booming voice.
You could hear him all over the United Way."
SHEPPARD was raised in Ottawa and attended Queen's University
and the St. Patrick's school of social work at Carleton University.
An associate professor of social work at the University of Waterloo,
he came to London in 1974 when asked to apply for the United
Way job.
In retirement he loved to garden and keep up to date on progress
in the city's community agencies.
SHEPPARD had been sick for awhile,
DONNER said.
"I'll miss him. He was a good fellow."
SHEPPARD is survived by his wife, Lorraine, and children Ann
and Brian.
A memorial service is to be held at 11 a.m. Thursday at Westview
Funeral Chapel, 709 Wonderland Rd. N., with visitation an hour
beforehand.

It is with great sadness that the family of Jean Alice
FURBER
announce her passing on May 29th, 2007, in her 84th year, after
her courageous battle with stroke/leukemia. Jean passed peacefully
away at the Village of Taunton Mills Nursing Home, Whitby, Ontario,
the way she lived, with grace and dignity, in the presence of
her family. Beloved and cherished wife of Roy Francis
FURBER,
who passed away in 2000 after 54 years of marriage. Devoted and
loving mother of daughter Susan (predeceased 1988) and sons Michael
and wife Jacqui and Geoffrey and wife Liz. Beloved grandmother
of Sarah (Andrew), Ben, Cody (Tami), Tom, Aimee, Neil and Jane.
Proud great-grandmother of Trenton and Dylan. Faithful sister
to brother John
ROLLINGS and wife
Anne and sister-in-law Mavis
and family. Left also to mourn are her nieces and nephews, Tim,
Judy and Peter. Also mourning, are Rosemary, Maggie, Harry and
Margaret, Pauline and Hugh, Eiry, Isobel and John, Cynthia and
Ian, Nagu and Suseela, Norm and Linda, whose Friendship brought
lifelong companionship and happiness to Jean. Waiting for her
in heaven with her beloved Roy and daughter Susan are grand_son
Nick and nephew Chris and parents Tim and Ruby
ROLLINGS and Charlie,
a wonderful canine friend with whom she shared a special relationship.
Born in Westcliff on Sea, England, Jean received her training
as a nurse at Peace Memorial Hospital in Watford. She worked
at Bushey Health Hospital from 1942-1944. With her marriage to
Roy came new chapters and adventures in a full and rewarding
life, raising children, setting up homes in England, Egypt and
South Africa, becoming known as the 'Pine Lady' in her 50's restoring
and selling Welsh furniture, before moving to Canada in 1989,
living near her son Michael and family. Despite a seemingly fragile
appearance, particularly in later years, Jean possessed an indomitable
spirit and an extraordinary strength and resolve, which enabled
her, time and time again, to bounce back from a steady progression
of serious conditions and illnesses. The core of her being was
wrapped in the warm embrace of family. Jean radiated a quiet,
dignified, old-fashioned grace and style. Her silent strength
was evident to her final breath. God speed, Jean! Our family
would like to thank Jeff
DONOVAN,
Doctor
REID and the wonderful
staff at Taunton Mills Nursing Home whose dedication and professionalism
showed kindness, compassion and understanding each day. Jean's
wishes are to be reunited with her beloved. A memorial celebration
of her life will be held in England. In lieu of flowers, donations
in Jean's memory may be made to the Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation.

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

Stephanie
JACOBS (Dr. Larry

McKEOWN, and Erin

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.

DONOVAN,
Richard
Bertram, C.S.B.
Died at Scarborough General Hospital July 11, 2007. Richard was
born on March 26, 1923 in Rochester, New York, the
son of Raymond
and Lillian
(BERTRAM)
DONOVAN. He entered Aquinas Institute,
Rochester, New York the year the Basilian Fathers took charge
of the school in September 1937. Upon graduating from high school,
Richard entered St. Basil's Novitiate in Toronto and made his
profession of vows August 15, 1942. Father Donovan then pursued
his B.A. degree at Saint Michael's College, Toronto followed by
four years of theological studies. He was ordained to the priesthood
by James Cardinal
McGUIGAN,
Archbishop of Toronto, in 1950 and
that same year completed an M.A. degree in French at the University
of Toronto. Graduate studies followed at Yale University culminating
in a Ph.D. degree in French Language and Literature. While at
Yale he was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship for study and research
in France and Spain. In 1956 Father Donovan was appointed to
the University of Saint Michael's College, Toronto, where he taught
French for thirty years. He was department head from 1962 to
1975 and Registrar from 1977 to 1989. During that time also,
like his confreres at the College, he helped with parish ministry
on weekends and offered Mass frequently during the week at Loretto
College and Saint_Joseph's College. From 1990 to 2001 Fr. Donovan
assisted in the work of the Saint Michael's College Alumni Office,
serving as Records Officer. From 1988 to 1994 he had the pleasure
of serving as superior during the summers at Strawberry Island,
a summer retreat for the Basilians in beautiful Lake Simcoe.
He managed to do a bit of fishing there, which was to provide
tasty fish for the hungry crowds on the Island. Many of his students
and professors have kept in touch with him after his retirement
from teaching. He was admired as a devoted teacher and scholar,
who inspired his students with a love for languages. Father Donovan
celebrated the 50th anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood
on June 25 in the Jubilee year 2000 at the Cardinal Flahiff Basilian
Centre chapel with six fellow jubilarians. He retired to Anglin
House, Cardinal Flahiff Basilian Centre in 2006. Father Donovan
is survived by two brothers James and William, and several nieces
and nephews. There will be a Vigil Service on Friday, July 13
at the Cardinal Flahiff Basilian Centre chapel, 95 Saint_Joseph
