DRAKE,
Florence (née
SELVIN)
Unexpectedly but peacefully on February 27th at Saint Michael's
Hospital in her 93rd year. The Selvins emigrated from Russia
to Utah where Florence was born. Her studies took her to Mills
College in California where she studied to become a social worker.
She remained a proud and engaged alumnus. Marriage to Stillman
DRAKE and his subsequent professorship at the University of Toronto
brought Florence to Canada. The University of Toronto community
was always dear to Florence's heart. Her compassion as a social
worker benefited many of Toronto's disadvantaged as she generously
supported numerous charities throughout the city. Florence's
interest in the arts led her to the Art Gallery of Ontario where
she was a volunteer for many years, arranging and leading excursions
to Italy, a country both she and Stillman both loved. Family
and Friends in California were never far from Florence's thoughts
and she visited beautiful Berkeley and San Francisco often. Florence
treated everyone she met with gentleness, kindness, and generosity.
We will miss her lively conversation, her delight in exploring
the culinary treasures of Toronto, and her infectious love of
life. Those fortunate enough to have known Florence will miss
the interest and sincerity she showed not only to her Friends
but also to their families. Pre-deceased by her husband Stillman
DRAKE and daughter Judy
CASAROLI. Survived by stepsons Mark and
Dan DRAKE and their families; nephews Steven, Michael, and Joel
SELVIN and their families. She will be missed by her many Friends
in the United States and Canada. A memorial service will be held
on Wednesday March 26 (Florence's birthday) at 10: 00 a.m. at
the Victoria College Chapel, University of Toronto.

CASE – In loving memory of Wife, Mother and Grandmother, Margaret
CASE, who left us June 26, 2006.
God saw you getting tired and a cure was not meant to be
So he put his arms around you and whispered “Come with me”
With tearful eyes we watched you suffer and watched you fade away
Although we loved you dearly we could not make you stay
A golden heart stopped beating and a warm loving heart to rest
God broke our hearts to prove to us that he only takes the best.
We miss you dearly, Bill and family.

Cyril
(November 12, 1920-April 8, 2008)
Passed away peacefully in his eighty-eighth year at his home

MASON and
Norman Frederick Charles
BEST. Norman served in the Royal Air
Force from 1936 to 1946, principally with 143 Squadron, in the
North Sea, Middle East and North Africa. He was an accomplished
football and cricket player and a big band singer in those years.
After the war, he immigrated to New York and then to Toronto
and followed a career in the aviation industry, including work
on the Avro Arrow project. He continued to fly airplanes recreationally
and became passionate about two pastimes-golf and painting. His
wide-ranging work as an artist included dozens of paintings in

aircraft and he contributed fine pieces to the Royal Canadian
Air Force Memorial Museum in Trenton, Ontario and the Royal Military
Institute in Toronto. He is remembered forever and deeply missed

Michael
Thomas, C.M., M.D., (F.R.C.S.C,) F.A.C.S.
Dr. Tom CASEY died peacefully at home in Halifax on June 10th,
2008 after a long illness. Born in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia on
July 8th, 1929, the eighth of nine children of the late Thomas J.
CASEY and Hannah
(MacINTYRE)

Margaret (MacDONALD,) sons Michael (Jane) and Patrick (Monica,)

New
York, brother Jim, Vancouver, and niece Mary
CLANCY,
Halifax. Besides his parents he was predeceased by sisters Catherine
CLANCY, Sara
WALSH, Jessie
CASEY, Mary
CASEY and brothers Michael
in infancy and Patrick. Brought up in Halifax, he graduated from
Saint Mary's High School and then attended Dalhousie University
graduating with B.Sc. and M.D. degrees from the Faculty of Medicine
in 1953. He trained at New York University's surgical residency
program at Bellevue Hospital followed by further residency training
in thoracic surgery in New York.
Tom practised surgery for over 40 years in Halifax, during which
he developed the thoracic surgical service at the Halifax Infirmary.
He was renowned and respected for his clinical skills with a
commitment to patient care which was legendary. He shared his
knowledge and concern for others as an Associate Professor of
surgery at Dalhousie where he was recognized as a dedicated clinician
and teacher of residents and medical students. Prior to beginning
his surgical career in Halifax, he did something he had idealistically
always wanted to do - he went to Nigeria for a year as a surgeon
at a hospital in the bush region of the country. It was a rewarding
period for him where he learned how much could be accomplished
without the "so-called essentials" of a modern hospital. This
experience led to a life long interest in third world medicine
which he pursued through volunteer service in Haiti, St. Lucia
and Guyana.
His lifelong dedication to his patients in Halifax and the developing
world was recognized in 2002 with the Elizabeth Seton award and
in 2004, an appointment to the Order of Canada. His quick wit
and intellect will be missed. As will his ability to captivate
with colourful stories of his remarkable life.
Visitation will be at Snow's Funeral Home on Wednesday June 11th,
from 7: 00 to 9:00 p.m. and Thursday, June 12th from 2:00 to 4:00 and

Maggy REEVES, 85: Couturier
Austrian-born designer clothed Canada's rich and famous
By Iris NOWELL,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S12
Toronto -- As a child, fashion designer Maggy
REEVES became acquainted
with immense wealth and one of its conspicuous spinoffs - beautifully
dressed women. It changed her life so that years later she would
attain the pinnacle of fashion excellence in Canada.
Born into uncertain times in Austria in 1924, she was christened
Margarethe
WEISZ. As a nine-year-old growing up in Austria she
sensed only faint stirrings of the unrest around her. In 1937,
she gained an abrupt understanding when her Jewish father, Robert
WEISZ, fled the Nazis and escaped abroad, leaving behind his
Catholic wife and daughters Margarethe and Trude.
During the Second World War, the threesome moved to the countryside
where they were spared the worst of the conflict. In 1947, Margarethe
married Willibald
NAGENZAUM, a bookkeeper she had known from
her school days. The marriage lasted only two years and she,
with son Frederick, left Vienna to join her father in the Dominican
Republic. There, she discovered he had bigamously married a niece
of Rafael TRUJILLO, the country's infamous dictator. Margarethe
and her son moved in with her father and his wife and, in doing
so, rubbed shoulders with the elite of society. The women, she
discovered, were stunningly dressed.
"I was so jealous," she said years later. "I showed off by making
the wildest clothes." This achieved the desired effect: "People
looked at me."
By 1949, however, she had grown unhappy living with her father's
new wife and ran off and married James
COURTNEY, a well-to-do
Texan. This proved to be a mistake. After two tumultuous years
in Dallas, they divorced and she moved to New York where she
became an apprentice pattern maker.
In 1953, she moved to Montreal where she broadened her experience
as a junior designer. Two years later, she settled in Toronto.
There she got a foothold in couture by custom designing high-fashion
clothes. By then known as Maggy, she set up a business in her
home on Bayview Avenue in Toronto's Moore Park neighbourhood
and hired three women as seamstresses. In her window she hung
a sign: "L'elegance - Paris, Toronto, Haute Couture."
"Maggy organized little fashion shows in the living room," said
her friend Edith
BILEK, a fellow Austrian who served clients
tea and sandwiches. "That's how Maggy began."
The business developed quickly but lacked capital to expand.
A client named Reva
JOSEPH, whose husband was a prosperous car
dealer, offered the necessary backing. The new business was named
Maggy Reeves, which is derived from their first names - Maggy
and Reva. In 1957, the Maggy Reeves salon opened on Cumberland
Street in Toronto. Over time, Maggy adopted it as her own name.
The business flourished and in 1962 she married Otto
SOMLAI,
a Hungarian who had fled the 1956 revolution. At first, he worked
in a furniture factory but later quit to work alongside his wife.
By that time her salon enjoyed a staff of European-trained women
who painstakingly produced the handwork that was the Maggy Reeves
imprimatur -- beading, quilting, hand painting and embroidery.
Working with fine silk chiffon, for example, a design might comprise
six or eight hem lengths, each hand-rolled and stitched so fine
the stitches were scarcely visible. Such filmy chiffon and tiny
stitches allowed a dress to "float" as the wearer walked. It
was a distinct mark of couture.
Ms. REEVES's workers spent hundreds of hours on handwork she
could never afford to charge. Prices of her ball gowns averaged
$2,000 to $3,000, which in Paris or New York would be 10 times
higher. Her costliest design was $10,000.
Interestingly, the customer was not always right. If Ms.
REEVES
felt an outfit would not be flattering, she refused to make it
and instead devised a glamorous alternative. She steered women
away from tight-fitting clothes they thought were sexy. "If you
wear something too tight that shows your bumps," she once told
a reporter, "you will look like a snake that has swallowed eggs."
In October of 1964, an afternoon tea and fashion show at the
Park Plaza Hotel put her salon on the map. Organized by her friend
and public-relations whiz, the late Catherine
SMYTH, the event
was intended to expose Toronto women to haute couture suits,
coats and ball gowns that were the equal of Paris, Rome and New
York.
"Everybody went ga-ga," recalls Anne
CASEY, a client who modelled
in the show. "People wanted to buy the clothes right off your
back."
Clientele grew quickly and Ms.
REEVES often had difficulty obtaining
high-quality fabrics in Canada. Twice a year, she travelled to
textile mills in France, Italy and Austria in search of the best
materials. Frequently, she went to New York for the luxurious
ribbons, piping, vintage beads and Swarovski crystal buttons
that gave her designs their characteristic touch.
In 1977, a star-studded charity fashion show in Los Angeles earned
recognition in the U.S. The show, in support of the Loretta Young
Auxiliary of Saint Anne's Maternity Hospital and Home for Unwed
Mothers, was organized by Toronto broadcast journalist Edie
FRANKEL.
The clothes were modelled by the wives of actors and the event
attracted celebrities and young starlets.
However, it also produced a big problem.
"Maggy took one look at the models and said, 'I told you, no
breasts!' Ms.
FRANKEL recalled. All along, Ms.
REEVES had been
concerned that naturally busty women and breast-implanted women
would not fit her fashions. Fortunately, she had brought along
a sewing machine, and her assistant Franca
RANIERE immediately
made alterations.
Ms. REEVES continued as a leader in Canadian haut couture for
some years after that but demand diminished in the 1990s as fashion
changed to ultra casual wear. Nonetheless, with one part-time
worker she continued to make couture in her Toronto apartment
for a few loyal clients.
Maggy REEVES was born Margarethe Katharina
WEISZ in Vienna, Austria,
on October 11, 1924. She died April 9, 2008, in Toronto of heart
failure. She was 85. She is survived by her sister, Trude, and
her son Fred Courtney. She was predeceased by her husband, Otto,
in 1991.

He was predeceased by his sister Renee

Born in Toronto on July 22, 1913, Robert married Irene in 1937.
In 1943, the couple moved to Montreal, where they raised their
family, returning to Toronto in 1987. Robert delighted us all
with his passion for jazz and swing music - he was a clarinet
and saxophone player, and performed in Toronto swing bands by
night in the 1930s, while completing Chartered Accountant accreditation
by day. He enjoyed a successful career as chief financial officer
for a major, Quebec-based construction company. In later years,
he and Irene took great pleasure in their cottage on Lake Champlain
in upstate New York, hosting innumerable joyful family gatherings.
His sense of humour, unshakeable optimism at lowering his golf
score 'next time,' and his talent for improvising vivid bedtime
stories are indelible memories. We will always cherish the legacy
of Robert's gracious, gentle and deeply considerate nature.
The family wishes to acknowledge the thoughtful care and diligence
of the staff of the Wellesley Central Place, Robert's home for
the last two years of his life. If desired, donations may be
made to Wellesley Central Place, 160 Wellesley Street East, Toronto,
