Saint Thomas native dies at competition
By Canadian Press, Mon., August 27, 2007
Toronto -- The body of a Burlington firefighter who died suddenly
during an international fire extrication competition in Indianapolis,
Indiana, was escorted by fire trucks and police cars back to
Canada yesterday.
Saint Thomas native Wayne
TOPPING, 45, died of an apparent heart
attack Friday morning minutes after participating in an extrication
challenge.
TOPPING joined the Burlington fire department as a volunteer
firefighter in 1998 and landed a full-time job in 2000.
About two years ago, he got involved with the department's extrication
team, to compete against other fire crews in the delicate art
of removing trapped passengers from crashed cars.
It was minutes after his team completed its final challenge Friday,
a timed event, that
TOPPING started showing signs he wasn't feeling
well, said Burlington fire Chief Steve
THURLOW
"After completing the scenario, Wayne felt uncomfortable. He
had some water. He sat down and rested for a while and then he
went into a seizure."
Despite receiving immediate medical attention, he died en route
to a nearby hospital.
Yesterday,
TOPPING's body was taken to Burlington fire headquarters
for a brief stopover on the way to a local funeral home.
His funeral will be at 1 p.m. Thursday at the Central Arena and
Recreation Centre in Burlington.
TOPPING leaves behind his wife, two sons and a stepson.

ARMSTRONG,
Jacqueline
Macaulay (née
HALE)
Peacefully, at home in the Glynnwood Retirement Residence, on
Thursday,
August 2, 2007. Jacqueline Macaulay
ARMSTRONG (née
HALE,) of Toronto, formerly of Montreal, in her 85th year. The
beloved wife of Walter James
ARMSTRONG, who celebrated the 60th
anniversary of a long, loving, and mutually supportive marriage.
Born in Montreal, May 9th, 1923, Jackie graduated from The Study
in 1940. She served in the Women's Royal Naval Service during
World War 2, working in Bletchley, United Kingdom. Jackie and
Jim ARMSTRONG were married on June 23, 1947, at Dixville Notch,
New Hampshire, Jackie's family's summer home. Jackie and her
family moved to Toronto in the 1960's, where she became very
involved in the Royal Ontario Museum's volunteer committee for
more than 15 years. Jim and Jackie later lived at Roches Pt.,
Ontario, from 1984-1997, where Jackie was the ultimate hostess
and an extremely great cook who loved entertaining. During the
same time, they spent their winters in Tucson, Az., where again
Jackie made many Friends. She was a woman of many interests and
talents and she especially had a gift for making and keeping
Friends across great expanses of time and distance. Jackie was
greatly admired, and will be fondly remembered, for her kindness,
keen interest in others, generosity of spirit, and wise counsel.
Much loved mother of Jonathan
ARMSTRONG of Costa Rica, Peter
ARMSTRONG of Toronto, David
ARMSTRONG of Toronto, and Airlie
Armstrong BROWN of Stouffville, Ontario and their spouses. Jackie
was also the dear grandmother to ten grandchildren. Predeceased
by her sisters, Betty

BLACK,
Kenneth
James
Died on August 11, 2007 at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto from
complications following pneumonia. Loving husband of Mary, who
predeceased him in 1976, a devoted father to Amy and grandfather
to Theo BROOKE, born August 2006; he was adored by Amy, Theo
and son-in-law Stephen
BROOKE.
His sister-in-law Marjorie

nieces and nephew Cathy, Diane and Norm
BLACK, great-nephew Gregory
BLACK and great-niece Jacqueline
BLACK, cousins Michel
JONES,
Stephen and Stuart
THURSBY,
Wendy and Bill
KREVER, and Natalie
COYLE were all dear members of his family in Ontario. He will
be greatly missed by all his family from Winnipeg: brother-in-law
Alfred KAYE, nephews and nieces John, Kathie, Gordon and Jeanne
KAYE; great-nieces and great-nephews Liz, Cameron, Donna, Michael,
and Michele
KAYE,
Michael
PURVES-
SMITH and Robert
POHL. Ken was
also a dear and caring uncle to niece Nicola
IVANOVIC, nephews
David and Neil
CHAPMAN, great-nieces Natasha and Isabella
IVANOVIC
and Jessica
CHAPMAN, all of Merseyside, England; he was a cherished
brother-in-law to Rosemarie
CHAPMAN and Dennis
CHAPMAN, also
of Merseyside. He was predeceased by his sister, Elizabeth, and
brothers Ralph and Arthur, and by his nieces Jacqueline
BLACK
and Margaret
KAYE.
Ken's strong sense of loyalty and fun animated
a wide circle of Friends in Canada and
in England over his entire
life.
Ken was born in Winnipeg on May 10, 1924, the youngest of Norman
and Margaret
BLACK's four children. He attended the University
of Manitoba and served in the Royal Canadian Navy in corvettes
during the Second World War. After the war, he became a journalist,
first working at the Winnipeg Free Press and the Winnipeg Tribune
then spending time in Europe and England for Reuters. In 2006,
he published a memoir of his adventures during and after the
war entitled Telling It Like It Was. He joined the Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation in 1957 where he worked, in both radio and television,
for over 35 years, in London, England, Saint John's, Newfoundland
and Toronto. After his retirement he dedicated himself to his
many interests, including travelling, writing, neighbourhood
activism, birdwatching and his legendary annual Victoria Day
Party.
Ken brought an unrivalled joy to life and touched everyone he
met with this enthusiasm and with his charm and humour. He was
a true gentleman, but with a wry and sometimes mischievous outlook.
Ken had the gift of treating everyone with the same gracious
manner. As the countless guests to his house will attest, he
was the soul of hospitality. He was as happy playing with children
as entertaining adults and will be remembered by a number of
generations as the delightful and engaged grown-up always ready
with wind-up toys, kites, stories and songs. His interests were
eclectic, but they were bound together by an unceasing curiosity
and energy. Ken was the cherished heart of a number of social
worlds and families. He will be sorely missed. A memorial service
will be held on Friday, August, 17, 2007 at 3: 00 p.m. at Enoch
Turner Schoolhouse, 106 Trinity Street (one block east of Parliament,
just south of King Street East, Toronto). In lieu of flowers,
donations may be made in Ken's memory to the Bruce Trail Association.
