Curling icon mourned
By Don CROSBY,
Thursday,
September 06, 2007
Long-time curling journalist and promoter Doug Dean
MAXWELL died
of cancer at his Waterloo home Friday. He was 80.
MAXWELL was a curling journalist, broadcaster, event manager
and promoter. He started his journalism career with Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation-television and published his fourth
curling book, "Tales of a Curling Hack", in 2006. He also owned
and published The Curling News for 20 years and was until recently
a Markdale resident.
"The World Curling Federation regrets the passing of a major
contributor to global curling," federation president Les Harrison
said in a statement Tuesday.
From 1968 to 1985,
MAXWELL served as executive director of the
Air Canada Silver Broom, the men's world curling championship.
"Doug's work with the Silver Broom took the world curling championship
to a new level and had a large impact on the development of the
sport of curling in new markets," said Harrison. Doug and his
wife, Anne, moved to "Larchwood" - a farm in the Markdale area
- in 1990, later moving to a house in town. They were involved
with the Annesley United Church.
"He was a gentleman. Very committed to his family, to the church,
the community and to the hospital fundraising project," said
Dan Rose, who first met the couple at church.
"He had great communication skills and was always willing to
help out when he could. It was an honour to know the man."
The former pastor of the church remembers
MAXWELL's voice.
"He had one of those voices that you could listen to for a long
time," said Don Pletsch. "He had great number of experiences&hellip
he was great storyteller… and he liked to laugh."
In recent years,
MAXWELL was heavily involved in the fundraising
campaign for a new hospital in Markdale.
"He was so pleasant and so helpful," said Doctor Hamilton Hall.
Hall said
MAXWELL brought his years of experience as a journalist
to the preparation of some radio ads.
Doug MAXWELL threw his first curling stone in 1949, starting
a lifelong association with the sport. He served 20 years as
the director of the World Curling Championship and is credited
with inventing curling's skins game. He wrote numerous books
on the sport, including the bestseller "Canada Curls."
The MAXWELLs had recently moved to Waterloo.
He is survived by his wife
Anne, his children Ward
MAXWELL and
wife Deborah
KIRKEGAARD, Gord
MAXWELL and wife Pat
FENNESSY,
Janet MAXWELL and her husband Gary
WICKHAM,
