KORTE, Johan Eljas Kalervo (April 8, 1924-January 3, 2007)
After making a valiant 3 month effort to recover from the effects
of a raumatic ruptured aneurism, John passed gently into his
own 'good night' on January 3rd. He is survived by his harem
beloved wife and partner of 52 years Adele
(VOGEL,) daughters
Johanne (Richard
GREGORY) of Vancouver, Nancie
LEE, Lu
(Susan
KING) and Karen all of Ottawa and Heidi (Robert
McKEE) of Toronto.
Ever the proud grandfather, 'Grampuns' will be sorely missed
by Ryan, Keli, Lian and Derek
GREGORY,
Makena,
Hayden and Lake
KORTE-
MOORE,
Quincy and Jesse
KORTE-
KING and Kayla and Kieran
McKEE.
Predeceased by his mother and stepfather, Helvi and Eino
RINTA, father Paavo
KORTE and brother Matti
KORTE.
Born in Finland
and raised in Montreal, John developed a love for the Laurentians
and the ski crowd that taught him early on how to 'let 'em run'
a phrase he'd enthusiastically repeat many times to young and
old in his ski-obsessed family. John spent 42 years working for
Bell Canada forging a successful career that began on Baffin
Island and ended with 5 fascinating years spent in Saudi Arabia,
before retiring to Ottawa. He was one of those fortunate few
who loved every minute of his working life and considered it
enriched by the experiences and colleagues who coloured his journey.
John was a man who read widely, entertained graciously and was
humbly grateful for the gifts of Friendship and family that meant
so much to him. In lieu of flowers, his family asks that you
take the time to sit down with an old friend and share a story
or two… remembering that the chances to do so pass us by all
too soon. Friends may visit at the Central Chapel of Hulse, Playfair and
McGarry, 315 McLeod Street (Ottawa), on Sunday, January 7th,
2007 from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. Funeral Service will be held
in the Chapel on Monday, January 8th, 2007 at 2: 30 p.m. Condolences
may be sent to korte.nomad@gmail.com

KING,
Reginald
Ford
Reginald Ford
KING passed away on November 5th, 2007. Dearly
loved, and a man of integrity and kindness. Born in Port Union,
Newfoundland, in 1927. In 1955, Reg moved his young family to
southern Ontario, where he felt there would be more opportunity.
He found work in the accounting department of the Hamilton based
steel and industrial supply company Wilkinson and Kompass and
stayed for 35 years, retiring as President and General Manager,
in 1990. As a family man, he hugged his sons often, nurtured
his three children to succeed as entrepreneurs, and ensured his
wife was financially independent of him. At the office, he practiced
employment equity before these principals were mainstream. An
ethos of sharing credit liberally, and assuming responsibility
when things were difficult, served him well. Ideologically conservative
for most of his life, during retirement, his views evolved to
the centre. He supported same sex marriage and came to feel governments
should invest more in social programs. Despite his health challenges
and loss of Elizabeth (Betty), his wife of 53 years in 2003,
he lived his final years independently and positively, charming
all those whom he met to his final days. Beloved by his children
and their partners: John (Teresa,) Michigan; Susan (Lu
KORTE,)
Ottawa; Gary (Laura
EAGLES), Ottawa; and nephew Don
BRAGG, Hamilton.
He also leaves seven cherished grandchildren: Ryan, Matthew,
Sean, Vashti, and Dylan
KING, and Quincy and Jesse
KORTE-
KING.
Also mourning his passing are his sister Edna
CARSON,
Washington,
and brother Dan (Gloria), Toronto. Following his wishes, a private
family service will be held. Thank you to Don, the wonderful
neighbours and health professionals who cared for Reg in recent
years and months. For those wishing to make a memorial contribution,
donations to the Arthritis Society or Shepherds of Good Hope
would be appreciated by the family.
