CAMPBELL,
Dorland▼ and Anna
In loving memory of our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents,
Dorland, February 3, 2007, and Anna, February 22, 2002.
Don't grieve for me for now I am free
I'm following the path God laid for me
I took his hand when I heard him call
I turned my back and left it all
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work or play
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I found that place at the close of the day.
If my parting has left a void
Then fill it with remembered joy,
A Friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss
Ah, yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow,
My life's been full, I savoured much
Good Friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seems all too brief
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief
Lift up your hearts and share with me
God wanted me now, He set me free.
- Forever loved and remembered by Doran, Jane, Carol, Fred and
Marlene and families.

McLEOD)
Phyllis Catharine
POTTS, beloved wife of the late Dean
POTTS,
passed away after a brief illness on January 6, 2008 in Centre
Grey Hospital, Markdale, Ontario in her 82nd year.
Phyllis▼ was born on December 24, 1926 to Katie
(CAMPBELL) and
Marshall McLEOD, on Lot 11, Conc. 9 Nottawasaga Township, nestled
between the hills of Glen Huron and Dunedin. She was the third
of eight children, namely Hazel (Harry
ROWLEY,)
Don
(Betty,)
Jean (Joe YAGER,)
Marion
(William
GORDON,) Charles (Maureen,)
Mildred (James
WALKER) and Helen (Ronald
WRIGHT.)
Phyllis earned her education at S.S.#16 Nottawasaga, Glen Huron,
Ontario, writing her entrance in Singhampton. After completing
school she would go to work at Dunedin General Store. She worked
in the homes of the Bowerman's and Sherlock
METHERAL's before
venturing off to Collingwood to work in Dominion Woolens Textiles
Peerless factory which made denim products; and Woolworth Department
Store. During that time she boarded at the homes of the Aikins',
Hornsby's, Martin's and Wilson's.
Phyllis married Wallace Dean
POTTS on October 15, 1955 in Dunedin
Knox Presbyterian Church, with a reception in Stayner. A honeymoon
was enjoyed in Niagara Falls and also a few days in Northern

Phyllis continued to work in Collingwood for awhile, before coming
home to help Dean on the farm and sawmill and preparing many
meals for the hired men who helped in the fields and at the sawmill.
No one ever left the table hungry.
Phyllis and Dean had two children, a stillborn son in 1961 and
a daughter Judith Phyllis in 1965. Judy married Dan

October 15, 1988 and lives close by. Phyllis enjoyed watching
her two grandchildren Katie and Lori growing up next door, taking

She was indeed a "proud" Grandma.
Phyllis and Dean celebrated 44 years of marriage at the time
of Dean's passing in 2000. She was fortunate to live on the family
farm until her time of passing.
Baking, flowerbeds, visiting and chatting with family and Friends,
and the occasional bus trip, were some of the things that she
enjoyed and that helped to pass the time for Phyllis.
Phyllis was predeceased by her parents Marshall in 1987 and Katie
in 1989. Husband Dean (2000), sister Jean (1999) and brother-in-law
Joe YAGER (1998,) brother Charles (2007.)

LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY chose his own route on Great Escape
By Kate DALEY,
Special To
Sun
Media, Sun., March 16, 2008
He wasn't one of the tunnel diggers, but he may have been one
of the men who secreted the dirt out in their pant legs.
No stranger to hard work, Russel William
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY spent 35 years
in the building supply business in London.
But he also had a claim to fame tied to other hard -- and deadly
dangerous -- work: The Great Escape by Allied prisoners of war
from a German camp during the Second World War.
Joining the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1941,
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY saw action
with 419 squadron.
Returning from a bombing run over Germany, his plane was shot
down. He survived, but the enemy captured him.
He was taken to a prisoner of war camp for air officers, Stalag
Luft III, from which the famous escape tunnels to the outside
code-named Tom, Dick and Harry -- were dug.
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY spent two years at the camp, its breakout popularized by
the movie The Great Escape, with Steve McQueen.
"He was one of the lucky ones that never did escape," Gregg
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY
of London said of his father.
After digging extensive tunnels under the camp, using everything
from milk cans to bed boards, a large group of prisoners tried
a mass escape.
Fifty men were captured and killed by the Germans and the rest
turned back, said Gregg, adding it was lucky his father never
made a run for it.
When the advancing Russians invaded, the Germans closed the camp
and marched the men toward Berlin.
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY was finally liberated
in 1945.
"He did what he had to do," said his son.
"Once he decided on doing something, he never regretted it. He
lived his life with an incredible amount of integrity."
When
The
Great Escape premiered,
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY and some of the other
prisoners of war were invited to view the movie in Toronto.
He told his son the film was a bit embellished, but he recognized
some characters' names.
Born in Hamilton in 1913,
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY returned to the area after the
war and married Marion
CAMPBELL in 1946. Their son was born in
late 1947 and a daughter, Jane, in 1950.
The family later moved to London where
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY worked for Woollatt
Lumber, a company he eventually bought.
Retiring 32 years ago, he was an active golfer and curler until
the last years of his life. He wintered in Florida and moved
to Dundas 15 years ago.
"He was respected both in business and as a member of the Highland
Country Club and Dundas Valley Golf and Curling Club," said his
son.
"I never heard anybody say a bad word about him."
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY died at his home last Tuesday. He was 94. Besides his two
children, he is survived by his wife of 62 years, Marion, and
one grand_son.
Every night at 5 o'clock
LOWERY/LOWREY/LOWRIE/LOWRY would sit down with a rye and
soda. He was known to poke fun at the doctors who nagged him
about that habit.
"He lived as long as he did because he had his own medicine,"
his son said with a laugh.

DELANEY,
Joseph
C.
We wish to express our many thanks to so many people who helped
us at the time of Dad's passing June 9, 2008. We were very touched
by the outpouring of generosity from our neighbours, relatives
and Friends through the preparation of food, sympathy cards,
mass card offerings, charitable and floral tributes. Dad was
blessed to be surrounded by many caring people during his time
at home over the last few years. His 'support staff' included
kindness and care from Janet
BILKE,
Margie
CAMPBELL, and Rosemary
BALFOUR. In particular, Nancy
O'REILLY is fondly remembered for
her special attention in helping to organize his appointments,
and ensuring he was able to attend mass and enjoy special music
events such as 'Tuesday Toonies'. She became his 5th daughter.
Upon relocating to the Ritz Villa in Mitchell, he enjoyed continued
care and attention from the staff. He loved when the staff acknowledged
him with "Hi Joe" - so happy that everyone knew his name! A special
visitor he looked forward to her visiting and saying the rosary
was Pauline (Geottler)
HARTFIEL who shared her time with him
reminiscing about many of the Dublin families from years ago.
During the few days that Dad was at Stratford General Hospital,
he received calming and gentle care from the nursing staff; we
know that his most memorable visit was from Fr. Paul
NICHOLSON
who bestowed upon him the Sacrament of the Sick. We were overwhelmed
with the support of Friends and family who attended the funeral
visitation on Thursday. Special thanks to the ladies of the Seaforth
Legion for their preparing a hot meal for our family between
the two visiting times. Dad's funeral was shared with Friends
and family and was beautifully concelebrated by Fr. Chris
GILLESPIE
and Fr. MOONEY.
Dad always enjoyed the sounds of the pipe organ
at St. Patrick's Church and we appreciated the gift of music
from Brian
ECKERT, the organist, and the choir members of St.
Patrick's and St. Vincent De Paul. The Catholic Women's League
provided a tasty lunch following the funeral mass. Our thanks
to Ruth and Ross from Whitney-Ribey Funeral Home for the kindness
they shared with our family throughout the funeral preparations.
Although Dad lived a long and healthy life, it is still difficult
to 'say goodbye'. We are comforted by our trust in a life afterward,
that Dad is now reunited with Mom (Mamie) after 6½ years. His
life is now complete. Yvonne and Steve
SEILER,

In loving memory of our dear father, grandfather and great-grandfather,
Bill, who passed away July 14th, 2001. We did not see you close
your eyes, Or hear your last faint sigh. We only heard that you
were gone, Too late to say good-bye. Our hearts still ache with
sadness, Our silent tears still flow, For what it meant to lose
you Dad, No one will ever know. Sadly missed by Gary and Cheryl,

The first lady of Blue Mountain faced ups and downs beyond the
slopes
Forced from a Slovak idyll, she adapted to Canada, helped build
a resort and became an author
By Noreen SHANAHAN,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S8
Toronto -- Helena
WEIDER was known as the first lady of Blue
Mountain. Nearing her 100th birthday, she could still be seen
strolling along the streets of Collingwood, Ontario, her knapsack
bulging with fruit and vegetables picked up in local shops.
"That's Jozo
WEIDER's widow," people would say, recalling the
other half of the couple who built the successful Ontario ski
resort in 1941, overcoming poverty, the language gap and xenophobia
after immigrating to Canada from wartime Czechoslovakia.
Blue Mountain's history is an immigrant success story. Starting
with a single hill and a chalet, the pair spent 30 years developing
Blue Mountain, which became a multimillion-dollar resort that
remains in the family today, shared with Intrawest ULC. But
like the ski hills Ms.
WEIDER helped to create, her life was
full of ups and downs.
Helena Uhrova
WEIDER was born in Bohemia while it was still under
the rule of Austria-Hungary, part of the Hapsburg dynasty. Her
father was the town's only architect. He died when she was 2 and
her stepfather, also an architect, died six years later. Her
stepfather's funeral took place on June 28, 1914, the same day
Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated
in Sarajevo. During their brief time together, her stepfather
often took Helena into the mountains, where she developed a passion
that grew to define her life.
In 1926, she entered the University of Prague, a radical venture
for a young woman at that time, and took a job after graduation
at a government insurance company for the working class. It was
because of a generous gift from her boss - a ski holiday in the
mountains - that she met Joseph (Jozo)
WEIDER at his tiny ski
resort in the Carpathian Mountains of Slovakia in March, 1934.
In those days, there were no lifts or tows; skiers had to climb
2½ hours up the 1,400-metre slope. Helena was initially charmed
by a sign the entrepreneurial Mr.
WEIDER left beside a pile of
bricks at the bottom of the slope, asking each person to kindly
cart one brick up the mountain for the chalet's chimney. After
a few days on the slopes and a few nights chatting by the fire,
Mr. WEIDER surprised her with a proposal of marriage. "I think,
Helena, we should get married. You love mountains and I have
them," he said.
So it was that, one spring morning, they dressed in their finest
ski pants and schussed down the mountain for their wedding. "Among
the last mounds of snow, the snowdrops blossomed profusely,"
Ms. WEIDER said in her memoir, written when she was 96. "Jozo
picked a bunch and pinned the wedding bouquet on my shirt."
Later, they repeated the descent into the village, this time
for the birth of their son George. In the dead of night, Jozo
outfitted a sled with chains, attached a thick mattress and a
tumble of blankets, and settled Helena between the sheets. She
wrote of munching a sandwich between contractions.
"When the pains came, I would stop chewing. It was usually at
the most dangerous parts of the descent… among the 80 guests
we had [at the ski lodge], two of them had just become medical
doctors, and they skied beside us to be ready for an emergency."
She ran the resort while Mr.
WEIDER taught skiing techniques
and led treks in the mountains. Après-ski time was spent either
making music - he played the accordion - or watching ski films
in the chalet. But their good fortune was interrupted by war.
In early 1939, with Hitler poised to march on Prague, the two
found themselves separated. Ms.
WEIDER was in Slovakia while
her husband was in England promoting the resort. Unable to return
to Czechoslovakia, he applied to have his family immigrate to
rural Canada as refugees, and encouraged Ms.
WEIDER to take a
crash course in cow-milking. But before she got a chance to take
hold of an udder, she received a telegram from her husband saying:
"Do not milk, sweetheart, come."
While her sister Jarmila turned the Slovakian chalet into a shelter
for Czech resistance fighters, the
WEIDERs joined a group of
160 Sudeten German families departing from the port of Southampton,
England. Their ship, the Duchess of Athol, arrived in Quebec
City in June and the family was immediately sent by rail to B.C.'s
Peace River district, near the Yukon border.
The settlement was run by the Canadian Pacific Railway and was
in primitive surroundings, for which Ms.
WEIDER's
Girl
Scout
training prepared her well. Water was a particular luxury. Each
day, a team of three people filled heavy barrels at the river,
formed a human chain and passed buckets up the steep hill to
a waiting wagon.
In 1940, daughter Helen was born. Delivering a baby in this remote
settlement was a tremendous challenge. There was one hospital
within a large territory; farmers brought their pregnant wives
to town from miles away, long before they were due to give birth.
Shortly after the birth, Mr.
WEIDER was hired by the Canadian
Pacific Railway to work as a ski instructor attached to the Château
Frontenac in Quebec City. Ms.
WEIDER remained behind, caring
for two babies, milking cows, baking bread and fetching water,
while she learned English from a well-thumbed Eaton's catalogue.
Later that year, she and the children joined Mr.
WEIDER at another
Quebec ski lodge.
In 1941, they were convinced by Peter
CAMPBELL, a Toronto lawyer
and future senator, to move to Central Ontario and run the fledgling
operation at Blue Mountain, certain that Canadian skiing could
be more than just Whistler and the Laurentians.
In Collingwood, "We lived in a community of farmers who were
suspicious of foreigners, especially since we worked on Sundays
- God's day! But Jozo soon won them over, and later they happily
worked on ski weekends to add some cash to their income while
the fields lay dead," she wrote. Twin daughters Anna and Katherine
arrived in late 1942.
Some of the stories about Blue Mountain's origins have almost
become Ontario legends: the rapid growth of profitable ski hills
from what had been a farming and shipbuilding town; the ski train's
daily runs to the hills from Toronto, complete with sing-alongs
being picked up at the Craigleith depot by Mr.
WEIDER and his
horse-drawn sleigh. There was the "Red Devil" sled, which carted
skiers up the slopes, and green days before snow-making machines.
(Mr. WEIDER installed one of Ontario's first.)
In 1971, however, Mr.
WEIDER was killed in an automobile accident
on his way to Toronto. Ms.
WEIDER grieved so deeply that she
stopped skiing. But her love for mountains continued. Sixty-five
years old, she left the resort's operation to son George, and
moved to the small village of Nerja, in the Almijara range of
southern Spain, where she lived for the next decade and a half.
"For a long time, [Ms.
WEIDER] was the only woman who ever climbed
Mount Cielo," said her friend Christina Mackenzie, who lived
in the same village. "She was very talented; she bought one of
the three little villas on a hill - the highest one. She was
very gifted at seeing the potential of a building."
She became fluent in Spanish, renovated two houses and wrote
two books: Tales from Andalucia and The Mountain Ballad. But
in 1986, she decided to return to Ontario. Her family built a
house for her at the foot of Blue Mountain, and from there she
took many road trips, including to the Yukon at the age of 85.
In 2002, she began her memoir.
"A long time ago I made a resolution to bring the story of my
life to paper, so as to let my children know their roots on their
mother's side. Lying in bed in the predawn darkness of my 96th
birthday, I realized with a jolt that I could not postpone it
any longer," she wrote.
But there were still many years left in her life - years in which
she wandered among the skiers, resort-users and locals. George
WEIDER suggests that a possible reason for her death was primarily
because she had lost the will to live after her twin daughters
died of cancer in 2007.
Helena Uhrova
WEIDER was born October 6, 1906, in Nymburk, Bohemia,
now part of the Czech Republic. She died of natural causes in
Collingwood, Ontario, on January 22, 2008. She was 101. She is
survived by her son George and daughter Helen, eight grandchildren
and seven great-grandchildren. She is predeceased by husband
Jozo WEIDER and daughters Katherine and Anna.

CAMPBELL, Doctor Nettie Mae (née
MacLEAN) (A.N.)
69, passed away suddenly with grace and dignity, at home in West
Porters Lake, Nova Scotia, surrounded by her loving family on
Monday, 3 March 2008. Born in Hubbards, Nova Scotia, daughter
of the late Neil Charles Sr. and Catherine Rebecca
(HARNISH)
MacLEAN.
She is survived by Harry (West Porters Lake,) the father
of her two wonderful sons, Doctor David (Kathy) and children Nicole
and Christopher (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan), and Paul (friend Gail
YOUNG,
Halifax) and Mom's favourite Chihuahua Zara
ROZITA (West
Porters Lake). Mom's lifelong path pursuing education initially
began at the Teachers College in Truro, Nova Scotia. The consummate
educator, she received her B.A. (with distinction) at Sir George
Williams University in Montreal, Quebec (1973); M.A. (cum laude)
(Educational Technology) at Concordia University in Montreal
(1978); undertook further graduate studies at the Atlantic Institute
of Education in Halifax (1979-84); then received a Ph. D. in
Curriculum, Teaching, Learning, Leadership, Professional and
Personal Development at the Ontario Institute for Studies in
Education, University of Toronto (2001). In the ensuing years,
Mom taught Doctoral and Master students via distance education
through the University of Toronto, as well as provided thesis
coaching and consulting for students throughout Ontario, Nova
Scotia and Newfoundland. She developed and taught several graduate
courses: University of Prince Edward Island (2001 and 2003)
University of Saskatchewan (2002); and University of St. François Xavier (2004 and
2005). Mom was a much sought after speaker and was invited to
many national and international conferences. As an Author, she
published numerous national and international articles and was
in the process of completing a series of six books. These were
intended to be published in 2008 and another in 2009 with a focus
on Care-Empowering Education (enhancing attitude, everyday skills
for addressing challenges and opportunities, awakening and self-actualization).
This focus then evolved into Caring, Happiness and Inner Peace
which became Mom's Ethical Will. Mom's philosophy of life was
'searching for a better way'. Some of our favourite quotes from
Mom are: 'Life is about Learning and Learning is about Life'
'Falling in love with life: from the inside out, with grace,
dignity and respect. A fabulous life I live and love!' 'Respect
and Dignity = Caring; so, to the greatest possible extent, each
person is heard towards accommodating their happiness' 'Synchronicity!
The Universe and I are in Sync! Our Rhythms are Aligned' Mom
contributed to the community in many ways throughout her life
including: working as a substitute teacher at several public
schools throughout Dartmouth teaching Grades 2-6, while working
in various capacities for the Dartmouth City Council and subsequently,
was a fulltime elementary school teacher (TC-8) in Nova Scotia,
and Quebec. Mom was very active on numerous committees serving
in many leadership capacities throughout her life: President
of Memorial Society of Nova Scotia throughout the 1980's, as
well the Memorial Society of British Columbia in the 1990's
Vice President of Ontario Institute for Studies in Education
Alumni Association 1995-1998 and Chair of its many sub-committees
Editor of American Educational Research Association newsletter
contributing to many administrative offices within the Wholistic
Education Special Interest Group of the American Educational
Research Association, including President 2003-2005 and received
an American Educational Research Association Award 2005 for her
many contributions for the advancement of educational research.
Mom was a life long learner who was an avid library user, often
reading 20 books at a time. She loved life! Mom loved nature
and she cared for the universe with dignity and respect. Mom
had a certain sense of style, designing and creating many cutting-edge
clothes over the years, founding the ever fashionable NEMA
label. She made many early morning cruises in her peddle boat
with her little companion Zara on Porters Lake, soaking up the
morning sun and in the evening she loved watching for shooting
stars. She was an avid SeaDooer spending many hours cruising
the banks of Porters Lake. Mom was a bicycle enthusiast, hiker
and instructional guide on the Toronto Islands and Hyde Park,
bird watcher, gardener - who planted many beautiful flowers
she also loved harp music and nature sounds. Mom loved to spend
time walking with family and Zara on the white sand of Martinique
Beach, Nova Scotia's longest beach. She tamed two beautiful seagulls
(that she named Sue and Frankie) and would feed them everyday
by hand. Mom also enjoyed country drives wearing broad floppy
hats in Paul's 1930 Model A and 1937 Jaguar SS100. She cherished
her time alone for self-actualization, Hatha Yoga and meditation.
Recently, Mom spent many hours sightseeing with Dad, Paul and
Zara all over Nova Scotia (Briar Island-whale watching), Cape
Breton Island (Cabot Trail), Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick,
Maine, and Bermuda. Mom's passing-over has created a void that
nothing will ever fill - she will be missed and forever remembered.
Her spirit will live on with her family and close Friends. There
will be a private family celebration of her life. Cremation under
the care of Donald K. Walker Funeral Directors Ltd, Dartmouth,
Nova Scotia (902-469-5601). On-line condolences may be sent to
donaldkwalker@accesswave.ca. Memorial donations may be directed
to the charity of your choice. Mom's ultimate wish was that we
should respect and care for one another and work towards world
peace. 'At the end of the day, know that I was loved and that
you were loved'.

Ralph,
C. M, DFC and Bar, M.A., LLD, DCL,
D.Sc., F.A.I.C., F.C.A.E.S.
(November 14, 1918-March 13, 2008)
son of the late Fred and Pearl
CAMPBELL of Foxboro, Ontario,
beloved husband of Ruth, daughter of the late William and Mabel
HERON of Brooklin, Ontario. Father of Hugh (Darla) Stoney Creek,
Catherine (Hugh) Wakefield, P.Q., Elizabeth (Don

and stepfather of Patricia
PETERSON
(Eric,) of Don
MITCHELL,
and of Carolyn
HALL (Robert) Port Perry. Grandfather of Ian,
Robert, Brian, Julia, Christopher, Laura, Eric, Carrie, Shelley,
Rachel, and Rebecca. Great-grandfather of Eliot and Victoria.
Predeceased by first wife, Joy, in 1975. Ralph was born on the
family farm at Foxboro in November, 1918. Upon graduation from
Stirling High School in 1937 he became a full time farmer with
his parents for the next five years. The family farm became noteworthy
for its Holstein herd and for winning the provincial championship
in oat production. Ralph became volunteer organizer for Hastings
County Farm Radio Forums and aided four of them to found the
Foxboro Co-operative, which still operates successfully after
67 years, and he participated in creating the first Hastings
County Federation of Agriculture and its associated marketing
boards. Ralph enlisted as a pilot-in-training and subsequently
was awarded the D.F. C and Bar as an Royal Air Force bomber pilot
after several life-threatening incidents in European skies. On
return to Canada he became a student at University of Toronto
(1946-49), then Rhodes Scholar at Oxford (1949-51) and graduated
with a 'first' from Balliol College, Oxford. He became a Lecturer
in the Dept of Ag. Econ. at Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph,
in 1951 and Professor and the head of Department (1952-62). The
Department of Ag. Econ. became an integrated home of high quality
members and developed a large and stimulating graduate program.
He was chosen as Hon. Pres. by three 'years' of students and
counts many members of these years to be his very closest Friends.
Beside exceptional Friendship with members of year '57 and '59,
Ralph was a 'people person' with Friends in almost every county
in Ontario. He became Ford Foundation adviser to the Hashemite
Kingdom of Jordan (1962-64) and acting leader of planning, backed
by 15 energetic young Jordanian economists fresh out of university.
Seven years ago, on returning to Jordan he found one of these
'young men' he had hired in 1963 was now the Minister of Finance,
another was Minister of Transportation, another was Chief Executive
Officer of a major exporter, another had been ambassador to Kuwait
for five years, etc.etc. Ralph became Professor and Assoc. Dean
at U of Toronto (1964-70) and chairman of the university discipline
committee moderating between uncompromising exponents of old
and new views of education prevalent in the discordant years
1968-70. He then became Ford Foundation adviser to Kenya (1970-72)
where he became 'troubleshooter' for a new sugar factory which
brought hope and off-farm jobs to thousands of small holders
of Western Province and which-wonder of wonders - opened on the
very day planned. The Mumias Sugar Factory became one of his
greatest achievements; it has since been expanded from the original
60,000 tons to 180,000 tons of sugar per year. Ralph returned
to Canada as Principal of Scarborough College of University of
Toronto (1972-76), and spear-headed the creation of the first
co-operative program of the U of T. He became President of U
of Manitoba for four happy years (1976-81), during which he initiated
the practice of holding convocations not only at the university
but at five other cities so that nonuniversity relatives and
local Friends could see their young people graduate. In 1981
he became Rockefeller Foundation adviser to Kenya and created
small local teams analyzing sectors of the economy and stocked
with newly graduated Kenyans. In 1984 he became Director, International
Development Office of Association of Univ. and Coll. of Canada,
Ottawa (1984-86) largely devoted to assisting Canadian universities
establish productive relations with universities of the third
world.. Thereafter, he was part time consultant/adviser in Africa,
Asia, and Latin America and author of the book 'We Flew by Moonlight'
recounting his experience as a war-time pilot ditching at night
in the Channel and later being shot down on fire after bombing
the Ruhr Valley. A second book, 'From Foxboro, Ontario' reviewed
his long life with special attention to his early years in a
farm community. He was President of the Agric. Inst. of Canada
in 1960 and of the Can. Ag. Ec. Society in 1959. He became a
member of the Order of Canada in 1986. On June 8, 2008 he will
be inducted into the Ontario Agricultural Hall of Fame. One of
Ralph's strongest points is that he has always been a 'people'
person, a quality which comes naturally to those growing up in
a family like his and a community like Foxboro. A devoted husband,
father, grandfather, great-grandfather, friend, he will be sadly
missed by his wife, Ruth, and many others. The funeral service
will be held at Mundell Funeral Home, 79 West Street, Orillia, at
1 p.m. on Sunday, March 30th. Celebration of Life to follow at
Hawk Ridge Golf and Country Club, 1151 Hurlwood Lane, Orillia.

the university of your choice, in lieu of flowers.

Ronald McLachlan
Ron's last flight left Victoria at 2220 Thursday, March 13, 2008.
The first child of "Sandy" Alexander McLachlan and "Lil" Christian
CAMPBELL,
Ron was born in Calgary, Alberta on May 29th, 1915.
Due to the demands of the First World War, Sandy registered his
elder son's birth as the 30th of May - perhaps that explains
why Ron was usually early and never late.
Ron was predeceased by his beloved "Pudding", his adored wife
of over 60 years, Phyllis Sara
CAMPBELL in 2006. His brother
Ken and sister Betty also predeceased him. His passing leaves
a deep hole in the lives of his children of the heart, Hilarie
McMURRAY and her partner Jack
LITWINOWICH of Victoria and Steveston,
British Columbia, Bill
McMURRAY, his wife Mary and their children
Scott and Elspeth of Senneville Quebec. His nieces of the heart
Joanne TUSTIN of Victoria and Debbie
TUSTIN of Duncan grieve
the loss of their Uncle Ron. Also left to mourn are his baby
sister Margaret
STEVENSON of San Diego, California, his sister-in-law
Helen CAMPBELL of Victoria, his cousin Bea
WARD of Sidney, his
brother-in-law Alan
KIMBER and his wife
Roberta of Lethbridge,
Alberta and Ron's special Friends Bruce and Carol Gowans of Calgary,
Alberta and long time friend George McMurray of Winnipeg, Manitoba.
Ron leaves many Campbell and Kimber nieces and nephews and grand
nieces and nephews across Canada and the United States.
Ron was a pioneer of Canadian aviation, graduating in 1933 from
the first Aircraft Maintenance course at the then Provincial
Institute of Technology and Art in Calgary (now SAIT). He
and his friend Sheldon Luck made the first night flight over
the Rockies in 1935 from Williams Lake to Calgary - Ron struck
and held the long Eddy matches so Sheldon the pilot could see
the compass in their single engine Puss Moth. Ron went on to
a stellar career with Trans Canada Airlines and Air Canada. After
Ron won the heart of the prettiest load agent in Canada, Phyllis
KIMBER, they were married in Montreal in January 1946. Ron and
Phyllis had a wonderful life together in Montreal and Toronto
and Victoria - it was in Toronto in the 1950s that they first
spoiled Hilarie and Bill
McMURRAY which began a lifetime of unconditional
love and support. After leading the team to introduce the 747 to
the Air Canada fleet, Ron retired from Air Canada in 1975. That
same year Phyllis and Ron drove across the country to their new
home in Broadmead. Together, they travelled the world, visiting
the then Soviet Union in the 1970s and taking two trips to China
in the 1980s.
Ron was an old fashioned gentleman, always impeccably dressed
and unfailingly polite - we will hold in our hearts and our memories
the image of Ron's beautiful smile and his tip of the hat.
The family would like to thank the incredible staff of RP1 at
the Royal Jubilee Hospital for their loving care over the last
5 weeks. For the past year Ron enjoyed his life at The Peninsula
in Sidney, British Columbia - his caregivers were wonderful,
in particular Ian. Thank you. And a special thanks to Chris Chilton
and Anne Moon for being such good Friends to Ron.
There will be no service at Ron's request. Later this year, Ron
and Phyllis will be buried together in the Kimber family plot
in Lethbridge, Alberta. If you wish, the family would appreciate
memorial donations to the Salvation Army or to The Mustard Seed
Food Bank.

Jim
Anarchist, prison activist, hippie, partner, friend, son, brother,
uncle. Born November 20, 1949, in Shelburne, Ontario Died September 17,
2007, in Maynooth, Ontario, of a heart attack, aged 57.
By Richard
SWIFT and Julie
THIERS,
Page L6
Jim was born the fourth of six children on a family farm near
Orangeville, Ontario He always loved hard work - he used to wake
up early to feed the animals before heading off to a one-room
schoolhouse.
Jim was the first in his family to attend university, studying
math at the University of Waterloo. Although a bright student,
he was drawn to the idealism of the Sixties. He became a hippie,
organizing food co-ops, student housing co-ops and countless
other projects. In 1978, 11 students bought a 250-acre farm in
eastern Ontario and started one of several hippie communes in
the Bancroft area, Dragonfly farm, which still operates.
Jim eventually moved to Toronto. His primary passion was prison
work. He wrote regularly to inmates and developed magazines written
by prisoners seeking a voice from inside institutions in Canada
and the United States.
Jim was also involved in the anarchist movement, always busy
doing mailings, organizing events and writing. His tiny, one-bedroom
apartment in a downtown Toronto housing co-op was the site of
many of his vegetarian meals and meetings of left-wing activists.
Jim returned to regular contact with his family a decade ago.
He often teased (or was teased by) his four sisters, and loved
to visit his 90-year-old mother Ivadell, whose sharp wit and
memory no offspring can rival.
Jim was proud that his mother led five generations of family,
and always showed the photos of all five generations to visiting
Friends.
Although a hippie and an anarchist, Jim moved seamlessly between
divergent worlds. Occasionally he could be spotted in his City
of Toronto uniform, surprising his political Friends.
He worked for 25 years as a garbage collector, bridge maintenance
worker, water meter reader and finally supervisor. His Friends
and colleagues speak of his humour, clumsiness, ability to see
problems from many perspectives, and fairness to workers.
After 25 years of activism, Jim decided to settle down. He found
the love of his life, Julie, and they planned for retirement
in their log house on 40 acres of bush near Algonquin Park. Jim
loved his vegetable garden, chopping firewood, hiking, snowshoeing
and cutting new walking trails.
One day, while cycling with Julie, he suddenly fell off his bicycle.
His heart could not be revived. Perhaps it had done enough work
already.
Jim will be remembered for his keen intelligence, big laugh and
gummy smile, his long, lanky body, ability to find humour in
any situation, kindness to anyone on the outside and dedication
to social justice.
Richard SWIFT is Jim's friend and neighbour and Julie
THIERS
is Jim's partner.

CARLYLE,
Robert
Harold
(November 28, 1920-April 19, 2008)
Harold CARLYLE of Calgary, passed away on April 19, 2008 at the
age of 87 years. Known to his family first and foremost as a
doting husband and father, loyal brother and generous uncle,
Harold was a major player and leader in the Canadian oil and
gas industry. Robert Harold
CARLYLE was born in Lethbridge, Alberta,
one of four brothers who, even as small boys, shouldered responsibilities
in the Carlyle family dairy business. The family relocated to
Vancouver in the early 30's, struggling through the Depression
years, and Harold ultimately enrolled in Engineering at the University
of British Columbia. World War 2 interrupted his education, like
that of so many of this 'greatest generation'. Serving in the
United Kingdom and Europe with the Royal Canadian Air Force from
1941 to 1946, Harold contributed to the highly secret development
of new radar technology and led mobile radar units in the invasion
of Europe. In a recollection of this time, he wrote about a posting
in Land's End, England and a tremendous crew of radar mechanics
in whose workshop was a sign that read, 'The impossible we do
at once. Miracles take a little longer.' He was a loyal attendee
at reunions of Radar Veterans until 2 years ago. 'Harry', as
so many colleagues knew him, had a long and distinguished career
in the energy sector. Hired in 1950 by Gulf Research and Development
Company for seismic fieldwork based out of Smoky Lake, Alberta,
Harold was eventually promoted to Chief Geophysicist, then through
various executive ranks, ultimately becoming President of Gulf
Canada Resources Inc. in 1984. Through these years he was involved
with discovery and development of oil and gas reserves in the
Mackenzie Delta, the Alberta Pincher Creek field, the Beaufort
Sea, and Hibernia on the Grand Banks. Harold was elected President
of the Canadian Society of Exploration Geophysics and later served
as Chairman of the Canadian Petroleum Association during the
national debate that revolved around the National Energy Program.
In retirement, Harold served on a number of boards in private
and non-profit sectors. And he had more time to spend in the
Rocky Mountains he loved and at his cabin on the banks of the
Bow River in Canmore. He is survived by his brothers Alex and
Weldon in the Toronto area. He is greatly missed by his step-sons
Jim (Alice) and Bruce (Diane), grandchildren Jeffrey, Carlee,
Matthew, Leslie and Daryl and great-grandchildren Isaac and Lincoln
all of Calgary and by nieces and nephews throughout central and
western Canada. Harold was predeceased by wife
Jane▲

and his brother Gordon. Harold's wishes were that no funeral
or memorial service be held. Donations can be made in memory

Double shooting shakes gun-weary Toronto
Two 25-year-old men killed downtown; carjacking suspected
By Timothy
APPLEBY and Jamie
KOMARNICKI with reports from Sarah
BOESVELD and Matthew
CAMPBELL,
Page A1
Toronto -- It was just after midnight yesterday when Alan
DUDECK's
cellphone rang, bearing the worst tidings a parent could hear:
His son, Oliver
MARTIN, and his son's lifelong friend Dylan
ELLIS
had just been shot.
The two young men had been heading home from a friend's apartment
after watching a basketball game, and the frantic call came from
a close friend of Mr.
MARTIN.
"He said, 'Get down to St. Mike's [hospital] right away,' Mr.
DUDECK
recounted.
Mr. MARTIN worked for a prestigious investment firm. Mr.
ELLIS
was a photographer. Both were 25, with university degrees. And
both, it seemed, had a shining future. Instead, both perished
in an apparently random hail of bullets, leaving their families
in shock.
"Pretty rough, pretty rough," Mr.
DUDECK said.
Even in a city where gun killings have become familiar - yesterday's
shootings bring Toronto's homicide count for the year to 25 -
the double slaying, perhaps the result of an abortive carjacking,
was unusual.
As police struggled to reconstruct the events west of the city's
entertainment district, Detective Sergeant Gary
GIROUX of the
homicide squad stressed that from all appearances, neither Mr.
ELLIS
nor Mr. MARTIN was involved in crime.
"Both young men were loved by their families, they have a great
deal of support, and as you can imagine, both families are devastated,"
he said.
"These two victims were not at all known - I repeat, not at all
known - to the Toronto police or any police agency in Canada."
The only police record of either stems from when one of them
lost his passport about five years ago, another homicide investigator
said.
A 911 call came in at 12: 08 a.m. yesterday to the 14 Division
police station.
Mr. ELLIS and Mr.
MARTIN were found in the front seat of a Range
Rover that belongs to Mr.
ELLIS's stepfather, outside a friend's
condo where they had been watching a basketball game on television.
Both were wearing seat belts and the car's engine was running,
police said.
Despite paramedics' efforts, both were pronounced dead on arrival
at Saint Michael's Hospital.
In the back seat of the Range Rover was a female friend who survived
the attack and who is the homicide squad's key witness.
"It may well be the shooter didn't see her and that's why she's
alive," Mr.
DUDECK said. "We don't know."
All three had been watching the Boston Celtics pull off a comeback
win against the Los Angeles Lakers in the National Basketball
Association playoffs.
For several hours, the car was parked outside the condo, and
the three departed at around midnight. They briefly returned
for what Det. Sgt.
GIROUX described as "a very innocent reason&hellip
they were expecting someone to come out for a very brief moment."
Instead, they were accosted by the gunman.
"I'd say the shooting took place within seconds," Det. Sgt.
GIROUX
said. "He may have only been targeting the males in the front
seat, but they were certainly in my opinion targeted."
Multiple shots were fired - at least eight, judging by shell-casing
markers on the street yesterday - killing the two young men and
damaging the interior of the Range Rover.
After speaking to the traumatized young woman, Det. Sgt.
GIROUX
said the shootings may have been part of an abortive car jacking,
and that - for reasons he did not divulge - the killer appeared
familiar with the area.
"We're certainly alive to the fact that this was a very expensive,
high-end vehicle and I'm looking at it as a marketable thing
to steal."
Another police source suggested the violence could have erupted
from something as simple as an exchange of angry words.
One witness report said a young black male in a white shirt was
seen fleeing the crime scene on a bicycle. Another offered a
similar description, but said the man sped away in a blue car.
Under scrutiny, meanwhile, was an array of closed-circuit video
footage from buildings near the crime scene.
A friend of the victims who was at Thursday night's gathering
said she and other attendees were traumatized by the shooting.
Police swiftly cordoned off the area with yellow tape, and yesterday
afternoon, the Range Rover was still being examined by forensic
experts.
The car was parked immediately outside 798 Richmond St. West,
an upscale, five-year-old rental high-rise, surrounded by townhouses.
The area comprises a mix of new money and old, a few blocks west
of the downtown entertainment district.
Just metres north is a vibrant section of Queen Street West,
and on all sides are older brick homes, some of Victorian vintage.
"There's a sense of community; my house has been broken into,
but I do usually feel safe walking along the streets late at
night," said long-time resident Maria
BARABASH, who lives a block
east of the crime scene on Richmond Street.
"But this is a little bit too close to home."
So too for the families of the victims.
About 30 people gathered on the lawn of Mr.
ELLIS's parents'
home in the upscale Rosedale neighbourhood. Some hugged, while
others stood around or sat on the lawn in shock.
Tears in his eyes, a young man demanded that reporters respect
the family's privacy and leave the street and its million-dollar
homes and expensive cars.
Lauren WILKINS, a friend of Mr.
MARTIN and Mr.
ELLIS, said yesterday
the two men were "just wonderful people."
A few blocks away at Mr.
OLIVER's home, family members from the
East Coast began filtering into the big, ivy-clad brick house,
hugging and exchanging condolences.
Mr. MARTIN lived downtown in a house he shared with his sisters.
He graduated with a bachelor of commerce degree from Concordia
University's John Molson School of Business. He joined Russell
Investments Canada last year and quickly made his mark as a friendly
young man poised to take the financial world by storm, said company
president Irshaad
AHMAD.
"He was the person walking around the office always making Friends.
He just made a really tremendous impact."
Mr. MARTIN and Mr.
ELLIS had known each other since they were
in Grade 1 in Toronto's Brown Junior Public School.
From
Toronto, the pair headed for Quebec - Mr.
MARTIN attending
Concordia
University while Mr.
ELLIS pursued his passion for
photography at Dawson College.
Mr. ELLIS was a thoughtful photographer with an eye for detail,
his former mentor said.
"His style was a bit more urban, a bit more shadowy," recalled
Laurel Breidon, co-ordinator of the college's commercial photography
program.
"Not the bright, clean, happy stuff - a little funky, had a little
edge to it."
Mourners set up a candle-lit shrine last night outside the building
where Mr. MARTIN and Mr.
ELLIS were shot. About 20 bouquets of
flowers had been laid against the wall and three candles illuminated
a sign taped to the building that reads "May you rest in peace
Dylan and Oliver."

ROSS,
Claire
Isabel (née
REID)
Died June 17th in Kingston, Ontario where her devoted daughter
Cindy ensured that her final years were made comfortable. Claire
was the loving daughter of Harold and Clara
(SUTTON)
REID of
Montreal. When Claire grew up in Quebec higher education was
a luxury only the affluent could afford. She was sent to secretarial
school and then to work at an early age. However, this did not
deter her from reading widely, developing a love of poetry, and
learning everything she could. Indeed, Claire was a quick and
able student who easily mastered anything she set about to learn,
whether it was playing bridge, dancing, or learning to speak
French. Later, her children came to depend upon her ability and
strength of character. They rightly felt that she could do anything
- and do it with loving kindness and grace. She could make clothes,
hats, upholstery, draperies, pottery, all with her characteristic
beauty and elegance. Lucky recipients treasured her hand knit
sweaters as one of a kind works of art. Claire was an exceptional
and sophisticated cook, who also had flawless taste in interior
decorating; she could turn an ordinary room into a beautiful,
cozy oasis. Although Claire had a quick and lively wit, she never
criticized people or said an unkind word about anyone. She was
always cheerful and loved fun as she made everyone feel happy
and welcome while she provided endless hospitality. Her husband,
Ralph, who died in 1969, often said that the luckiest day of
his life was the day he met Claire. She is survived by her three
adoring children, Deborah
CAMPBELL (David) Fredericton, New Brunswick,
Cynthia McKEGNEY (Brian) Sydenham, Ontario, and Ian
ROSS (Cheryl)
Toronto, and her five beloved grandchildren, Kate and Neal
McKEGNEY,
Ross CAMPBELL, and Madeleine and Evan
ROSS.
Also▲ surviving are
her three sisters, Mabel
ADRIAN,
Jessie
REESE and Shirley
RAMSAY
for whom she was a loving sister. She also helped raise two step-daughters,
Ruth LEVY and the late Mary
KELTON, who were grateful for her
compassion and generosity. She was the brilliant, shining light
of our lives and we treasure her memory. In keeping with Claire's
wishes, cremation will be followed by a private family service.
In lieu of donations, please do something kind for someone today
in memory of Claire.

'Aggressive and very entrepreneurial,' she ranked among Canada's
top Chief Executive Officers
The head of Dover Industries took her company from annual revenues
of $10-million to $228-million. She thought nothing of phoning
federal finance ministers late at night to give them a piece
of her mind
By Ron CSILLAG,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S12
Toronto -- Mona
CAMPBELL was 33 years old when her father died
and left behind some companies that milled flour and made ice-cream
cones. She'd been the major shareholder in the businesses, and
stepped into the top executive slot two years later, in 1954,
at a time when women in corporate leadership were unheard of.
Her own father, the wealthy industrialist Frederick
MORROW, "didn't
think women should be doing this sort of thing," Mrs.
CAMPBELL
recalled in a 1986 interview. "To begin with, it was sort of
a question mark, which makes you want to do that much better.
I had no formal training. I had done a lot of work for voluntary
organizations, dealing with budgets, scrounging for money. It's
really the same thing in a small way."
Either she was being coy or very humble. When she took over,
the company had annual revenues of $10-million. Last year, Burlington,
Ontario-based Dover Industries Ltd. had revenues of $228-million
and employed 475 people.
Described as "Canada's first conglomerate," with interests in
paper products, flour milling and straw manufacturing, as well
as the ice-cream-cone business, Dover Industries is today one
of the largest Canadian-owned flour-milling companies in operation.
Mrs. CAMPBELL served as the company's president, chief executive
officer and, until her death, as board chairwoman. In 1976, she
became the first woman elected to the board of Toronto-Dominion
Bank.
Her success belied a view about women in the corporate world
that today could be charitably described as quaint. In a 1980
interview with the Financial Times, Mrs.
CAMPBELL declared that
single women couldn't be depended on in business "because suddenly
romance hits and they marry and maybe their husband moves, so
they move." Married women, meantime, are inflexible and may interrupt
their careers to have children.
Besides, few women crave the power that comes with the position,
she believed. "The majority of women are not interested."
A lot of them feel they just don't need the extra hassle, she
told The Globe and Mail the year before. "They are willing to
do a great job but I don't know how many more want the added
responsibility of representing shareholders." She did not foresee
other women serving on her company's board. "One's enough."
She chafed at being called an industrialist. "This is just a
job," she said in 1968. "It's not that difficult."
Mrs. CAMPBELL travelled the world and gave away millions of dollars
to the arts, notably to the Royal Ontario Museum, where there's
a curatorship in her name, and the National Ballet School in
Toronto since its inception in 1959. "She knew every student
by name," said the National Ballet School's artistic director
and co-Chief Executive Officer, Mavis
STAINES, who added that
Mrs. CAMPBELL often took students to her sprawling Mohill Farm
in Puslinch, Ontario, for weekends spent frolicking with her
beloved dogs and horses. Ballet, Mrs.
CAMPBELL once declared,
"is the love of my life."
She was named to the Order of Canada in 1996. In 2001, the Association
of Fundraising Professionals honoured her as its outstanding
philanthropist of the Year.
She was an only child born into privilege. Her father was a financier
who founded the Essa Securities Company, sat on the boards of
15 corporations and amassed a large fortune. He started Dover
Industries in 1940 by acquiring and merging three companies -
a flour mill, a grain dealer and Robinson Cone, which made ice-cream
cones, straws and packaging materials in Hamilton.
A devout Catholic who scandalously married the daughter of a
Baptist minister, Mr.
MORROW donated a large tract of land in
Toronto's north to the Sisters of Saint_Joseph. Morrow Park opened
in 1960 and today has an infirmary, residences, a girls' school,
and a retreat where Pope John Paul stayed during his 2002 visit
to Toronto for World Youth Day.
Mrs. CAMPBELL's first marriage was in 1940 to John
BAND, a dashing
navy officer who hunted U-boats during the Second World War and
became an insurance executive and collector of Canadian art.
They cut glamorous figures in society and had three children
before going through an acrimonious divorce in 1955.
In 1960, she married Jim
BINNIE, father of Ian
BINNIE, a justice
on Canada's Supreme Court. That, too, ended in divorce. Finally,
in 1967, she married Lieutenant-Colonel Kenneth
CAMPBELL, a career
army man who once authored a scathing report from the Korean
front that described the venerable Lee-Enfield.303 rifle as "almost
useless." He operated a farm near Guelph that raised cattle and
thoroughbreds, and died in 1990.
Mrs. CAMPBELL often said she liked people. Her daughter, Sarah
BAND, is more specific: "She loved men."
She loved animals, too, and their welfare was a top priority.
Mrs. CAMPBELL was a leading supporter of the Ontario Humane Society
and was awarded naming rights to an animal adoption centre in
Newmarket, Ontario - Mohill Village. She also endowed the Col.
K.L. Campbell Centre for the Study of Animal Welfare, which promotes
the welfare of animals through research and education, and the
Col. K.L. Campbell Graduate Travel Grant in Equine Studies, both
at the University of Guelph.
She was formal and had an old-world elegance, but lean, angular
features that bespoke a stern countenance. According to her friend
Brenda Nightingale, however, "she was the most generous person
you ever met." Her daughter noted Mrs.
CAMPBELL's fastidious
concern with her appearance: "Every thread on her had to be perfect."
Highly political and a staunch Conservative, she thought nothing
of phoning Michael Wilson, finance minister under Brian Mulroney,
late at night to give him a piece of her mind, Ms. Nightingale
recalled with a laugh.
In business, she was "very aggressive and very entrepreneurial,"
noted Dover Industries' current president and Chief Executive
Officer Howard
ROWLEY. "
She was very willing to reinvest money
back into the company. That's why we've been able to grow at
the rate we have."
Her board approved a plan in 1968 to erect a $2-million flour
mill in Halifax - the first modern flour mill in Nova Scotia
- but rebuffed her move to enter the flour market in Montreal.
"A new flour mill in Montreal 10 years ago would been a howling
success," she insisted at the time.
She oversaw the company's five subsidiaries: Robinson Cone, Cherry
Taylor Flour Mills, Howell Litho and Cartons, Taylor Grain Ltd.
and Dover Mills Ltd. of Halifax. A firm believer in acquisitions,
the company under her hand bought a paper-box concern in 1956
the Howell Lithographic Company in 1960; Bondware, a paper cup
and container firm in 1981; and another flour mill in 2003. The
packaging business was sold in 2005.
Dover Industries was touted as Canada's first diversified company
but was not as diverse as it appeared. The ice-cream cones came
from Cherry Taylor flour and were packed in Howell cartons. Dover
Mills ground the flour from Taylor Grain and shipped them in
packages that were lithographed in-house.
Still, it was a multi-faceted operation and "she could walk out
into the different plants, and she knew most of the people by
name," Mr.
ROWLEY said. "Truck drivers would phone her from their
trucks and talk to her about whatever was on their minds. It
could be work-related or just to say hello. And she'd take the
call."
Mrs. CAMPBELL treated the company as her inheritance. "I thought
I'd have a go at running it," she said in 1968. "My father told
me that I would be all right as long as I had a good lawyer,
a good accountant and a good banker. We've got them and we've
never looked back."
But in case anyone doubted who was in charge, she had this to
say in 1980: "When we go out to buy out a company, I'm the one
that does the deal." She died the day of her company's annual
meeting.
Mona Louise
CAMPBELL was born February 3, 1919, in Toronto. She
died May 29, 2008, of natural causes in Aiken, South Carolina,
where she had lived for several years and where her favourite
activity was a Tuesday-night needlepoint group called Stitch
and Bitch. She was 89. She leaves her children John
BAND,
Sarah▲
BAND and Vicki
McRAE, four grandchildren and one great-granddaughter.

Three Friends who perished in watery crash were ‘full of life'
By Anthony
REINHART and Sarah
BOESVELD and Matthew
CAMPBELL,
Page A1
Minett, Ontario, Toronto -- Peninsula Road is worth taking slowly,
if only for the postcard-pretty views of the Joe River, as the
locals call it.
On Friday, where the road curves before crossing the river, cottage-bound
travellers slowed to take in a starkly different sight: 20 metres
of metal guardrail ripped from the ground, a pine tree shorn
at a point as high as a basketball hoop, and various bits of
the Audi S4 that literally flew through here and into the river
on Thursday evening, killing three young men inside.
A fourth occupant, a young woman, survived somehow.
Ontario
Provincial
Police identified the dead as Tyler
MULCAHY
and Cory MINTZ, both 20 and from Toronto, and Kourosh
TOTONCHIAN,
19, of North York.
The
Audi belonged to Mr.
MINTZ, but Mr.
MULCAHY was driving when
the car crashed into the lake.
Friends and family said Friday that the young men were “full
of life” and loved to have a good time up at the cottage while
on a break from their university studies.
Mr. TOTONCHIAN's father, Ali, said Friday that his son was “a
great boy” who was finishing his second year of business at the
University of British Columbia, and had dreams of becoming a
lawyer.
“He was a people person. He could always charm his way through
anything, ” Mr.
TOTONCHIAN said.
Ryan SILVERSTEIN, who had known Mr.
MINTZ for seven years, said
the young man was starting an acting career and was seeking an
agent. He had finished his first year at the University of Western
Ontario in London and was living in his mother's boyfriend's
cottage on Peninsula Road during the summer while running his
own boat-detailing business.
“He wasn't just a best friend, he was my brother, ” he said of
Mr. MINTZ. “He was a hipster guy, liked to party, wore tight
jeans, listened to cool music.&rdquo
A family member said the group was driving home from Cory
MINTZ's
cottage at the time of the accident.
Mr. MULCAHY attended Upper Canada College and had completed his
third year at the University of San Diego. Friend Andrew
REBURN
described him as “fun guy to be around. He had a great sense
of humour and always seemed to be happy.&rdquo
Nastasia ELZINGA, 19, of Toronto escaped the wreckage and was
taken to South Muskoka Memorial Hospital in Bracebridge, where
she was treated for minor injuries and released. Friends say
she attends McGill University in Montreal and is “athletic and
very bright.&rdquo
“I don't know how she walked away, ” Ontario Provincial Police
Constable Skeeter
KRUGER said of the 7 p.m. accident, “but she
said her Friends were still in the car” as the first of many
emergency workers arrived.
The car came to rest on the rocky river bottom with its passenger
side down and the badly damaged driver's side protruding less
than 30 centimetres from the water, Constable
KRUGER said.
Police, local volunteer firefighters and bystanders scrambled
down an embankment of granite boulders and waded into 1.5 metres
of water to retrieve the young men. They tried to resuscitate
them, but to no avail, Constable
KRUGER said.
The wrecked car, leaking fuel, was pulled from the river afterward.
On Friday, driver after driver pulled over, some with bouquets
and all with sober expressions, off the winding road, which has
a posted speed limit of 80 km/h.
Ontario Provincial Police traffic investigators were not ready
to discuss the speed of the Audi or who was driving, but it was
clear that the car left the road at substantial speed, given
the length of ripped-out guardrail, the tree broken four metres
above ground, the strewn debris and a set of curving skid marks
that indicated a failed attempt to cling to the yellow centre
line.
Herwig SCHROTH, 71, a resident of nearby Port Carling, said that
every summer he sees vacationers in high-performance cars, speeding.
Last year's example, which he witnessed near Bala, involved “two
cars racing at at least 150 km/h; one a Corvette, one a BMW.
They were just chasing each other, ” Mr.
SCHROTH said at the
roadside, where a pine scent wafted from the snapped tree.
“It's the kind of thing that happens every year, ” said Alf
MORTIMER,
84, a lifelong Muskokan who owns the marina in Port Sandfield,
a few kilometres south of the crash site. “But this is a bad
accident.&rdquo
Beyond the obvious loss to the young men's families and Friends,
Constable KRUGER said, the deaths unnerved colleagues. The Bracebridge
Ontario Provincial Police detachment has now seen six deaths
in four incidents in recent weeks -- three on the roads and one,
last weekend, on the water.
“Having to do [death] notifications is one of the worst jobs
we have to do, ” he said. “There isn't one person who goes home
at the end of the day and doesn't take a piece of this with them.&rdquo
Autopsies were scheduled for today; subsequent toxicology tests
will determine whether alcohol played a role.
In the meantime, Constable
KRUGER said, “there has to be higher
respect for our roads and our waterways across the province.
We continue to educate people about making good driving decisions,
and it would be great if some of those messages would get through
to people.&rdquo

Team which was cancelled with World War 2. (He was thrilled to
watch his granddaughter, Rosannagh, earn her berth for the Beijing
2008 Olympics for Trampoline.) As War broke out, his thesis on
fuel injection was sent to Massachusetts Institute of Technology
where he was to do his Masters but as a mechanical engineer,
he was positioned in Guelph at Federal Wire. In Guelph, he became
a Commanding Officer in the Royal Canadian Sea Cadets Corps Ajax
where he prepared many men for positions in the navy and was
still involved until he was 80. He resided in Guelph in the home
he built on Forest Street for 65 years. During his retirement

Nelson was hired as a Consultant on many interesting projects
- including the Apollo Moonshot program (NASA). Proud member
of the Professional Engineers of Ontario and the Naval Veterans
Association. Hobbies included reading (mostly engineering journals!)
and biomedical technical research. This resulted in two invention
disclosures (Commissioner of Patents, Washington, D.C.). In his
later years, Nelson put 'technical pencil to graph paper' to
write poetry. His sister June and daughter Susan were the recipients
of weekly prose over the last two years of Nelson's life. Nelson's
family will receive family and close Friends at the Turner and
Porter "Peel" Chapel, 2180 Hurontario Street, Mississauga (Hwy. 10,
North of Queen Elizabeth Way) from 1-4 p.m. on Sunday, March 30,
2008. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Heart
and Stroke Foundation. Little bird sitting in a tree Wishing
I were you and you were me But that can never be So fly away
little bird and be free And maybe someday we will meet in eternity
And I'll be you and you will be me. ~ N.
