Audrey CAMPBELL, 90 Philanthropist
Newspaper magnate's daughter left own legacy in health care,
racing
By Sandra MARTIN,
Page S8
A horse breeder, a philanthropist and a nurturer of family and
Friends, Audrey
CAMPBELL was the last surviving child of newspaper
magnate Roy
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON.
Together with her three daughters, she gave
$25-million to establish the Campbell Family Institute for Breast
Cancer Research at Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto. The
gift "really was transformational because it was the largest
private donation for breast cancer at that point and also because
it helped to support the work of Doctor Tak
MAK… and allowed him
to grow his team and his research organization," said Paul
ALOFS,
president of the Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation, referring
to the renowned cancer researcher.
Mrs. CAMPBELL's younger brother, Ken
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON, celebrated her
generosity with a public tribute.
"From the time of my first memories, I have looked up to Audrey
as my big sister, the person who, along with my parents, looked
after me and always had my best interests at heart," he said.
"She prefers a low profile and I'm sure all this recognition
embarrasses her… [but] she has made me proud of her again."
Phyllis Audrey
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON was born in Toronto on July 6, 1917, the
eldest child of Roy and Edna
(IRVINE)
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON.
Her sister Irma
(later BRYDSON) was born in 1918 (died 1966,) and her brother
Kenneth in 1923 (obituary June 13, 2006).
Audrey's early years were far from luxurious - her father, the
son of a barber, struggled to make enough money for food and
rent. The THOMSONs moved to Ottawa in 1925, when she was 8, and
to North Bay three years later. Her father worked as a travelling
salesman before he paid $1 for a broadcasting licence, bought
a 50-watt transmitter on three months credit and started his
first radio station, CFCH, in North Bay. Soon, he also bought
radio station CKGB in Timmins and then moved into print by
acquiring the Timmins Daily Press in 1934.
Three years later, the family moved back to Toronto. Audrey,
now 20, attended the University of Toronto and earned a bachelor
of arts degree. After the Second World War, she met Queen's University
engineering graduate Elwood
CAMPBELL, later a high-school math
and physics teacher. They married in 1947 and bought a three-bedroom
bungalow in Port Credit, where they raised their three daughters,
Linda, Gaye and Susan.
Despite her father's immense wealth from his North American and
European newspaper interests and his stake in North Sea oil and
gas, Mrs. CAMPBELL lived a quiet suburban life, immersed in family
and her daughters' activities. While she attended meetings of
Woodbridge, the family holding company, she was not involved
in the running of the Thomson corporate empire. "I may have inherited
my father's title and had many benefits conferred upon me in
the business and social world, but Audrey is mind, heart and
head of the family," Ken
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON said of his older sister in
Mrs. CAMPBELL's two younger daughters were interested in riding
ponies, which triggered her own interest in standardbred horses.
She and her husband started small in the early 1970s, with a
part ownership in a single animal. She found early success with
horses Armbro Dallas and Arcane Hanover and eventually established
the Lothlorien Equestrian Centre in Cheltenham, Ontario, an offshoot
of her daughter Susan's own stable of hunters and jumpers called
Lothlorien Farms. "Lothlorien" is the name of a forest in J.R.R.
Tolkien's fictional Middle-earth.
Breeding and racing horses became an enduring passion for Mrs.
CAMPBELL,
who eventually had a stable of more than a dozen horses. In 2002,
Red River Hanover, which she partly owned, won the $1.5-million
prize for harness racing in Toronto. Three years later, Rocknroll
Hanover won the Breeders Crown Race at New Jersey's Meadowlands
Racetrack.
In 2004, Mrs.
CAMPBELL and her daughters decided to invest in
health care in a focused way, rather than just making a general
donation to the system. They researched where their money might
have the most impact and decided to support the work of Doctor
MAK
because they realized that his work on cancer cells would have
far-reaching consequences in breast cancer, but other types of
malignancies as well.
Phyllis Audrey
CAMPBELL was born in Toronto on July 6, 1917.
She died of metastasized melanoma in Toronto Western Hospital
on September 23, 2007. She was 90. Predeceased by her husband,
Elwood, she leaves her three daughters, 10 grandchildren, eight
great-grandchildren and extended family.
