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."

IVEY also a very respected businessperson
Former
London member of provincial parliament Dianne
CUNNINGHAM
says Beryl Ivey was 'a role model for many.'
By Joe BELANGER, Sun Media, Thurs., December 27, 2007
Beryl IVEY, whose philanthropy touched the lives of countless,
was also an astute London businessperson, her acumen admired
by many.
Accolades continued to pour in yesterday for the London icon
who died Christmas morning and will be buried in London tomorrow
her birthday -- following a private family service.
A memorial service will be held January 11 at Saint Paul's Cathedral
in London.
"Most of us know her as a business woman," said Dianne
CUNNINGHAM,
a former London member of provincial parliament, Ontario cabinet
minister and now director of the Lawrence National Centre for
Policy and Management at the Richard
IVEY
School of Business
at the University of Western Ontario.
"We were all involved in raising money and there was always a
business plan in place. She always asked the questions… She was
a role model for many of us."
CUNNINGHAM, who has known Beryl and Dick
IVEY for more than 30 years,
was devastated by the news of
IVEY's death three days before
her 83rd birthday after suffering a heart attack on Sunday.
"She taught us to ask questions, be generous and to always say
thank you," said
CUNNINGHAM. "
She was a great advisor for everybody,
who would give you her best ideas. Has London ever known a family
like this? No. I'm going to miss her very, very much."
Another
London icon, Don
SMITH, who founded Ellis-Don Ltd., Canada's
second-largest construction company, said he lost a "close friend."
SMITH said Beryl
IVEY, president of Beehive Investments Inc.,
sat on many boards, including corporations, but not just in an
honorary capacity.
"Her judgement certainly was respected," said
SMITH. "
She brought
to boards an intelligent, female point of view. She'll certainly
be missed."
Through her company Beehive,
IVEY contributed $1 million toward
a $9-million partnership fund for London's National Centre for
Minimally Invasive Robotic Surgery.
Born Beryl
NURSE in 1924 in Chatham to a Canadian army lieutenant-colonel,
IVEY was a gifted high school athlete who received a full scholarship
to Brescia College at University of Western Ontario in 1943.
It was at school that she met Dick, whom she married in 1949,
becoming part of a wealthy family that co-founded the Empire
Brass Manufacturing Co., now known as Emco.
It was Dick's father, Richard G.
IVEY, who in 1947 incorporated
the Ivey Foundation that became such a big part of the couple's
lives.
Beryl IVEY 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.
Beryl and Dick
IVEY moved to Toronto from London 18 months ago
to be closer to their children. In June, Beryl was named to the
Order of Canada.
She is survived by her husband, Richard, four children, nine
grandchildren and a brother, Robert
NURSE.
It's estimated the
IVEYs donated about $150 million to philanthropy
over several decades.
While much is known about the
IVEYs volunteerism and philanthropy
toward education, medicine and the arts, not so well known is
their wide-ranging interest and support for the environment.
The World Wildlife Fund, the Nature Conservancy of Canada and
the Talbot Land Trust are but a few of the
IVEY's benefactors.
Judith RODGER, former chair of the London Community Foundation,
said Beryl and Dick
IVEY "had a sense of the importance of protecting
biodiversity.
"If you ever needed good, sensible advice, Beryl was a good person
to turn to," said
RODGER.
"She was very astute and cared deeply about the environment.
And she had a real business sense."
John KIME, former chief executive of the London Economic Development
Corp., said the
IVEYs didn't give blindly.
"She put discipline into managing their philanthropy," he said.
"They supported things they felt were truly worthwhile. They
did wonderful research and then backed those causes or projects
strongly, with commitment. She was an extraordinary person in
terms of her commitment to this community. It's a huge loss."
In lieu of flowers, the family asks memorial donations be made
to Foundation Western at University of Western Ontario or the
London Community Foundation. Online condolences may be posted

Benefactor Beryl
IVEY dead at 82

Toronto -- Beryl
