PERRON,
Jacqueline
Emilienne
Passed away peacefully at home, 590 Huron Street, Toronto on
Friday, October 26, 2007 with her husband by her side. Beloved
wife of Paul
PERRON,
Professor of French and former Principal
of University College, University of Toronto, she is survived
by her dear sister Hélène
LACHANT and brother-in-law Michel,
her brother Jean-Jacques
MAURIN and his spouse Michèle, numerous
nieces and nephews in France and her dog, devoted walking companion
and fellow traveller, Loulou. Jacqueline was born in Aiguillon,
lot et Garonne France. A graduate of the École de la haute couture
de Paris, she began her career with Jacques Esterel and Oleg
Cassini in Paris, France. Jacqueline met Paul in Bordeaux in
1962, they lost sight of each other, Jacqueline going to Paris
to study high fashion and Paul staying in Bordeaux to finish
a PhD in French literature. They were separated for four years
and met again by chance in the 5th arrondissement in Paris in
May 1966 going to see a classical film. They saw each other again
and thus continued a wonderful and loving 41 year partnership.
As they would both say later on "Le hasard fait bien les choses"
or chance has a way of doing things. She rejoined Paul in Canada
in April 1967 where she quickly became a leader in the growing
Canadian fashion industry. In Toronto she worked as a designer
for Holiday Knitwear, National Knitwear and Dylex, where she
was co-responsible for the Daniel Hechter line. For sixteen months
Jacqueline fought a courageous battle with lung cancer with the
same grace and courage that marked her life. Jacqueline will
be remembered for her kindness and generosity, her keen intelligence
and sense of style, her warmth and compassion and for the way
she welcomed everyone to her home - whether that home was at
590 Huron Street or University College where for eight years
she and her husband hosted numerous elegant evenings. She was
greatly loved by all students, staff, faculty and alumni of the
College and will be deeply missed by all those whose lives she
touched. Following her wishes there will be no public or private
ceremonies and those wishing to commemorate Jacqueline can make
a donation in her name to the Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation,
610 University Avenue, Toronto M5G 2M9 whose caring and gifted
staff gave her such personal and loving care.

LACKIE,
Kathleen
E.
Kathy died peacefully, and for us very sadly, in hospital in
Toronto on Saturday, June 23, 2007 after a brief battle with
cancer. She is survived by her beloved daughters Brynn and Lauren,
mother Meg, partner Uno
HOFFMANN, pugs Hugo and Pee Wee, her
cats Baby, Precious Angel, Timmy, and Lola, her mom's dog Max,
and many close Friends from several generations. Kathy touched
the hearts and minds of many people. She had impact. She demanded
candor, integrity, principle, intellectual curiosity, in sight,
inspiration and humour. She got to the inside of you and she
took risks. She loved to laugh, hard. She never stopped exploring
'running the streets' she would say. She always asked the question
nobody else would. Her keen intellect and curiosity created adventures
for her and for those she chose to take on the ride. She was
a truth seeker, especially when the truth was on the edge. She
had a keen interest in the issues and challenges of the human
condition which informed her ability to befriend people from
all generations. Kathy was also an aesthete which shone in her
professional work and her private life, be it the beauty of her
home, her taste in art or her captivating personal style (even
if there was too much black in her closet). It was a privilege
to experience life with Kathy and her girls; she was an inspiration
to them, and they to her. The loss of Kathy will leave a permanent
gap in each who knew her well. As were her wishes, there will
be neither a funeral nor a memorial, just some gatherings along
the way. She will be cremated and her remains placed in the Lackie
family plot at Mount Pleasant Cemetery and in a garden dear to
her heart. In lieu of flowers, donations would be welcome to
either of the following: Opportunity International Canada (www.opportunityinternational.ca)
or Toronto Botanical Garden (www.torontobotanicalgarden.ca) Condolences
