Celebrated guitarist Jeff
HEALEY dies of cancer
By Colin FREEZE,
Page▼ A3
Toronto -- One of Canada's most famous guitar players has died.
Jeff HEALEY, a 41-year-old musician who sold more than a million
records in the United States, died yesterday from cancer, a rare
form of which took his eyesight as a child. The Torontonian's
most famous hits included Angel Eyes, See the Light and a cover
of While My Guitar Gently Weeps by the Beatles.
"Early last year,
HEALEY underwent surgery to remove cancerous
tissue from his legs, and later from both lungs," said a statement
posted on the musician's website yesterday. It continued: "aggressive
radiation treatments and chemotherapy, however, failed to halt
the spread of the disease."
The site noted that a rare form of the disease, retinoblastoma,
took Mr. HEALEY's eyesight when he was a baby.
"He was a virtuoso guitar player, and they don't come along every
five minutes," said Richard Flohil, a long-time friend of Mr.
HEALEY's
and, in recent years, his publicist. "He had an enormous range
of musical genres he could play with great skill."
He said that children with retinoblastoma stand a 50-50 chance
of developing other cancers later in life and that, because of
this, Mr. HEALEY would quip, "I'm in the wrong 50 per cent."
At the apex of his popularity, Mr.
HEALEY - who learned to play
the guitar as a toddler and grew up to play with the instrument
resting on his lap - was a fixture on rock radio. He was nominated
for a Grammy and earned a Juno Award in 1990 as entertainer of
the year. That year, he also played a musician in the movie Road
House starring Patrick Swayze.
Over the years, the guitarist was increasingly involved in jazz.
As the host of Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Radio's My Kind
of Jazz, his programs often showcased his collection of thousands
of 78-rpm records, many from the early 20th century. He also
ran a couple of Toronto nightclubs that carried his name.
This spring, Mr.
HEALEY had hoped to tour in support of a rock/blues
album, Mess of Blues, which is being released in Europe this
month and next month in North America.
The guitarist, who leaves his wife and two children, last blogged
about his condition in January. "I will be off to a clinic in
Henderson, Nevada, for the first two weeks of February as part
of an eight-week program I'm going to take," he wrote. "This
involves my alternative therapy, but my wife and I seem to feel
that it offers up some very potentially positive results."
He expressed optimism, talking of impending tour dates.
"At time of writing, my energy is up, my spirit is strong and
I'm ready for anything… We're all quite excited about the upcoming
CD."

Blood clot caused Via rider's death, police say
By Colin FREEZE,
Page▲ A3
Toronto -- A short-lived pandemic scare, one that caused a train
to be quarantined last Friday, actually resulted from a sedentary
passenger's fatal blood clot, police have told The Globe and
Mail.
Brenda BUCKLEY, a 43-year-old South African tourist travelling
alone on a cross-Canada rail journey, died from a pulmonary embolism,
authorities say. The condition, the worst-case outcome of a lesser
malady known to travellers as deep-vein thrombosis, can result
from protracted periods of sitting.
The condition has been known to arise on long-haul flights, but
many observers are surprised it is being linked to rail travel.
"This is not a condition Via [Rail] has ever encountered on any
of its trains," Catherine Kaloutsky, a spokeswoman for the company,
said last night. She said Via Rail doesn't warn passengers about
the risk of thrombosis, but will review practices.
The rarity of the condition on train journeys may have contributed
to the case's initial aura of inexplicability, which fuelled
the infectious-disease speculation that garnered global headlines.
The Ontario Provincial Police say a host of factors conspired
to cause police to fear the worst. Ms.
BUCKLEY's death while
travelling through Northern Ontario on Friday coincided with
another passenger being airlifted to hospital after complaining
of a severe respiratory problem. Five other passengers were also
complaining of flu-like symptoms.
By Saturday, it was clear that all of the cases had arisen independently.
Authorities issued a statement saying the five passengers were
"afflicted by a common flu virus," the airlifted woman had a
history of breathing difficulties, and that Ms.
BUCKLEY had "died
of natural causes."
Yesterday, The Globe asked an investigating Ontario Provincial
Police officer to elaborate on the kinds of natural causes that
could kill a 43-year-old. The death was "due to a pulmonary embolism,"
Detective
Sergeant
Michael
PILON responded.
He explained that after an autopsy in Sudbury, a pathologist
told him that the condition can result from someone "sitting
in a car for a long period of time, or, in this case, sitting
in a train."
Little is known about Ms.
BUCKLEY, whose age had been estimated
by some fellow passengers as about 20 years older than that listed
in her passport. She had provided the travel agency with the
name of a sister in South Africa as next of kin. "It came as
a shock to the family," said Det. Sgt.
PILON, who notified relatives.
The South African tourist had booked her Canadian trip through
Trafalgar Tours, a company that promotes the "breathtaking scenery"
of the Rockies, including their "snow-capped peaks, hanging glaciers,
pounding waterfalls and surging rivers."
Ms. BUCKLEY had already spent several days on a train before
crossing into Alberta from British Columbia last week. She boarded
another train in Jasper, and had nearly completed the two-day
trip to Sudbury when she began complaining of shortness of breath.
"It was a very sudden event," Det. Sgt.
PILON said.
In the past, airline agents have been forced to deal with similar
incidents. "It may be we will see something like that two, three,
four times a year with air traffic," said William
LUCAS, a coroner
for the province of Ontario. In an interview yesterday, he said
he has never heard of any such case arising on a train. He expressed
surprise, given that there is "a greater freedom of mobility
on the train than there is on an airplane."
Blood circulation is often dependant on the mechanics of walking,
Dr. LUCAS said, explaining that active leg muscles set about
"squeegeeing, like toothpaste, your blood back into circulation."
Long periods of sitting cause the blood to pool in the legs and
possibly coagulate into clots. Should a clot become dislodged
from the legs and travel up to arteries that feed the lungs,
it can spell disaster.
A funeral home in Timmins, Ontario, was making arrangements to
send Ms. BUCKLEY's body back to South Africa.

Sport utility vehicle's driver sought in triple homicide
By Timothy
APPLEBY with files from Colin
FREEZE and the Canadian
Press, Page A1
Toronto -- Homicide detectives Sunday night were hunting the
driver of a bullet-riddled sport utility vehicle, found abandoned
in a tranquil Etobicoke neighbourhood with the bodies of three
young men inside.
All three had been shot to death and then apparently driven in
a stolen Nissan Pathfinder to Lunness Road near the intersection
of Browns Line and Lake Shore Boulevard, close to the dividing
line between west Toronto and Mississauga.
The trio were identified early last night as Adrian Inglis
BANNERMAN,
29, Aaron Brendan
MacDONALD, 20, and
Kurt
Atiba
CHARLES, 27.
All three victims are from Toronto, pushing the city's homicide
tally so far this year to 35.
Detective-Sergeant Dean
BURKS of the homicide squad said the
slain men had been at a nightclub a few hours earlier and that
the incident may be gang-related.
The bodies and the gold-coloured sport utility vehicle were discovered
at around 3 a.m. and identifying the men was initially complicated
by the fact that they had apparently been stripped of their identification.
But clues swiftly began arriving as Friends and relatives converged
on the scene in the early-morning hours, including a distraught
man who said one of the victims was his younger brother.
“I know who did this, they killed my little brother” the man
screamed as he ducked under the yellow crime-scene tape and ran
toward the Nissan before being detained by police and taken to
the 22 Division station for questioning.
Det.-Sgt. BURKS said none of the victims was in the driver's
seat of the car and that the bodies had likely been transported
to the neighbourhood from elsewhere. Highway 427 and the Queen
Elizabeth Way are both a short drive from where the car was found.
As well, bullet holes in the Nissan's chassis indicated that
the shooting was done from outside the car.
“We have information that there was another person in the vehicle
and we're making efforts to locate that individual, ” Det.-Sgt.
BURKS
said.
Police said no one in the neighbourhood heard any gunshots or
saw the car arrive on Lunness Road. The first cruisers on the
scene arrived in response to a telephone tip.
Torrential, on-off rain throughout the morning further hampered
the investigation.
The 10-year-old Nissan appears to have been stolen or borrowed.
A check on its licence plate showed it to be registered to an
Ontario resident with the Ukrainian surname
CHORNOMAZ.
Contacted Sunday by The Globe and Mail, an Etobicoke woman with
that name said she did not wish to discuss the matter.
Leafy and normally peaceful, Lunness Boulevard backs on to Alderwood
Memorial Park and is part of a residential community where crime
is rare.
“It's a great neighbourhood, everybody is friendly, something
like this has never happened here before, ” a male resident said.
Word of what had happened, however, seems to have spread quickly.
As the investigation got under way, the Nissan protected from
the rain by a tarpaulin, a young woman drove up and told a Globe
photographer and police that she knew one of the victims and
that she is pregnant with his child.
A second young woman who arrived with a group of male Friends
said she was from Brampton and that she too knew at least one
of the deceased.
Then came the man who said one of the victims was his brother.
The triple homicide brought the number of killings in Toronto
over the previous week to six.
On Monday, William Ross
MAGILL, 64, was stabbed to death at his
mid-town apartment.
On Thursday, 17-year-old Shazad
KHAWAJA was shot to death in
the east end.
And in another homicide this past weekend, Michael
WATSON, 28,
was shot at a strip mall on Scarborough's Rylander Boulevard
early Saturday morning.
In addition, four other people were wounded during the past week
in non-fatal shootings.
Despite the short-term surge in killings, the year's homicide
total of 35 is still six lower than it was at the same time last
year.

Edward
Royal
(October 4, 1952-March 9, 2008)
Our dear friend Gord passed away peacefully, at home, during
his Sunday afternoon nap after a long, courageous and dignified
fight against cancer. He was triumphant in the face of inevitable
defeat for he valued Friendship above all else, and the value
of his Friendships was never more unassailable than at his life's
end. Kind, loving, fun, surprising, honest, dedicated, dependable,
all those wonderful qualities bundled into one great person.
Predeceased by his father and mother, Clarence and Dorothy
SIM
and nephew Richard
REID. He is survived by his sister Patricia
REID
(Don,) nephew Rod
REID (Heather) and their children Parker
and Brooklyn; Uncle and Aunt, Ted and Celia

LEACH/LEECH/LEITCH (Peter), Kenneth
GRIGG (Sue) and Catherine
FREIVOKH and
their families, and his godchildren: Morgan
McCONVILLE,
Scott
TINDLE, Willie
SCOTT, Peter
SEHMER, and Taylor
JACKSON. Gord
had an incredible circle of Friends from every spectrum of his
rich life, but in particular his family would like to thank his
oldest Friends for their support and care in the last year: John
and Mary McCONVILLE,
Blake and Dorie
POTTINGER, Maud
KILLAM,
Cathy NOEL, Margaret
ROBINSON, Robyn
WOODWARD, and Peter
ARMSTRONG.
The support and love Gord has had from his many Friends in the
class of 1970 at St. George's, colleagues from his years in federal
politics, and from Friends at Rocky Mountaineer Vacations has
been much appreciated. We would also like to thank Doctor John Sehmer,
and the physicians and staff of the British Columbia Cancer Agency.
Gord's political career began with the Young Conservatives of
Canada. He graduated from University of British Columbia - Class
of 1974 and worked for many years for the Hon. John Fraser, P.C.,
O.C., OBC, Q.C. in Ottawa and Vancouver before joining the
Rocky Mountaineer Vacations as a train manager for the last 14 years.
Gord served on the boards of numerous community organizations
and was a life long participant in the campaigns of many civic,
provincial and federal candidates. Gord looked as great decked
out in his kilt for the Sir John A. MacDonald Society as he did
riding with Friends at Douglas Lake. A bit of a George Hamilton,
our Gord liked to tan year round either in some exotic local
or on the sunny shores of Savary and Gambier Islands. He enjoyed
traveling, watching the Canucks, celebrating the achievements
of loved ones, and cooking dinner for Friends. He has left us
with amazing memories. 'How wonderful life is when you're in
the world' surely was written for our Gord. In lieu of flowers
donations may be made in Gord's memory to the British Columbia
Cancer Foundation. A service in memory of Gord will be held at
Saint Mary's Anglican Church at 2490 W. 37th in Vancouver on March 25,

FRENCH,
Frances
Mary (née
LABINE)
(July 25, 1929-February 22, 2008)
Frannie slipped away peacefully into the early morning light
on the shores of her beloved Georgian Bay. In death, in life
and always, she was surrounded by her family and will forever
be remembered by every soul she touched. Born in Haileybury,
Ontario, to Gilbert and Blanche
LABINE,
Frannie was one of seven
children. Cherished sister to Leonard, Joseph, Lillian (Maloney),
Helen (Chisholm), Margie (Beaudry) and Patsy (Egan). Lorretto
Abbey, the violin, the family farm, the Eaton's Fashion Council,
a ship's sail across the Atlantic and a young hockey player all
defined a young Frannie. At sea, returning from a pilgrimage
to the Vatican she wrote of being embraced by her church and
enthralled by her Paddie, with whom Frannie spent 57 years as
a wife and mother to their five children: Michael (Colette),
Paul, Paddy (Karen), Mary Fran (Brian Anderson) and Christopher
(Cathy). She was an endearing grandmother to Britt, Emma, Claire,
Andrew and Thomas. Frannie's married life began in Baie-Saint-Paul
where Paddie, an engineer, built a dock in the St. Lawrence.
From Quebec to Ontario, and in 1959 to Alberta, and the Rockies
where he built the Rogers Pass, Frannie raised her family in
Edmonton, skiing in the river valley, skating and golfing in
Mayfair Park, and exploring the Rocky Mountains. Edmonton was
good to Frannie. She reciprocated by devoting herself to the
needs of others at Saint_John's Parish, Saint_Joseph's Basilica,
the Catholic Women's League, and 36 fulfilling years as a volunteer
with the Cross Cancer Institute. In 2000, Frannie and Paddie
moved to Georgian Bay and a little house she had known as a girl.
The nature she so loved surrounded her. Her brother, sisters
and children always close by. Her failing memory protected by
her husband who never lost faith or trust in her ability to love
him. Always elegant in word and deed, Frannie loved and will
be missed by many, especially the gentle souls she shared her
final days with at Hillcrest Village in Midland. For the kindness
to their mother, the French children are forever indebted. Arrangements
entrusted to the Penetang Funeral Home 705-549-3155. The visitation
and the funeral mass will be held at St. Florence Chapel, Thunder
Beach. Visitation is Wednesday, March 5, 2: 00 to 5:00 p.m. The
funeral mass is Thursday, March 6, 11: 00 a.m. followed by a reception
at the church hall, Paroisse Ste-Croix, Lafontaine. Also on Thursday,
March 6, a mass will be held in Frannie's memory at Saint_Joseph's
Basilica in Edmonton. Interment will follow in the spring. In
lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Cross Cancer Institute,
Edmonton, Alberta, or to the Catholic charity ShareLife.

WAUGH)
(July 6, 1921-April 20, 2008)
Peacefully slipped away after a valiant fight against Leukemia,
on Sunday, April 20, 2008, at Victoria Hospital, London. Loving
wife of the late Doctor W.E.
PACE. R.N. Winnipeg Class of '45, Mother
of 6, Genealogist, Abstract Artist and fascinating friend to
many. Betty lived her 86 years of life on this earth to the fullest
with spirit, fire and great style and will live forever in the
hearts of her children, grandchildren and great-grand_son: Anne
and Harry WALKER of Burlington with children Jennifer and husband
Steven SMITH (and young son William,) Lindsay and David; Captain
John and Sheilagh
PACE of Richmond, British Columbia with children
Jessica and Kaitlin; Doctor Ron and Ellen
PACE of Waterloo with
children Michael and Alison; Mary
(PACE) and Roy
FRENCH of Toronto
with son Alex
(PACE) and daughters Jennifer and Katie; Allan
PACE and Lin
WARD of Orangeville with son Taylor; and Carla Louise
PACE of Vancouver. Cherished sister of the late Richard
WAUGH
and his wife
Pat, cousin to Alex
WAUGH and his partner Jerry
DEE, and Pat
(WAUGH)
ETTER of Arizona, and much loved Aunt to
her many WAUGH nieces and nephews. Born in Antwerp, Belgium,
Betty moved with her family back to Winnipeg where her forefathers
pioneered the Red River Settlement. It was there that Betty graduated
as an R.N. and where she met and married the love of her life,
Bill PACE.
They settled in London, Ontario and enjoyed the summers
in Muskoka, autumn canoe trips in Algonquin Park, and their beloved
Lake Kawagama camp. Together they founded a family of nature-lovers,
bird watchers, driftwood walkers, amateur biologists, paddlers
and all with just a touch of Betty's unique perspective on the
natural world. Throughout her life Betty steeped herself in the
history and mystique of her pioneering past and, thanks to her
love of genealogy, all of her children shared in the dramatic
stories of their collective past through the
WAUGH /
MOWAT line.
Betty was the consummate letter writer and her distinctive cursive
handwriting on weekly letters will be missed by many. Always
creative, a true turning point for Betty was attending H.B. Beal
art classes and becoming part of a devoted group of art aficionados.
The creative freedom of abstraction in watercolour, oils and
acrylic was perfect for expressing her passionate spirit. She
loved colour and her many works showed off her bold dramatic
flair. She approached her art as she did her life, with great
zest and energy, and right to the end rose to the challenge of
one last small canvas with her signature theme, a graceful swan.
Betty's passionate temperament fueled her vibrant art, her approach
to gardening, baking and cooking, and also her fierce love and
concern for her husband, family, Friends and neighbours. She
had her own sense of style, whether in the kitchen, the garden
or at a party, loved hats and fine shoes, and spread a lifetime
of joy with her beautiful smile. Friends may call on Friday,
April 25 from 7-9 p.m. at the James A. Harris Funeral Home, 220 Saint_James
Street at Richmond, London, where the funeral service will be
conducted on Saturday, April 26, at 2 p.m. As flowers of all
types were a focus in her life and art, floral tributes are always
appreciated by Betty and her family, or a donation to the Leukemia and
Lymphoma Society of Canada, 480 University Avenue, Suite 1502,
Toronto, Ontario M5G 1V2.

Patrick
(May 25, 1922-April 26, 2008)
Always a loving husband to Frances (née
LABINE,)
Pat passed away
peacefully on the shores of Georgian Bay, surrounded by his family
and the vivid memory of an accomplished life dedicated to his
faith. He will be dearly missed by his children Michael (Colette),
Paul, Paddy (Karen), Mary Fran (Brian) and Chris (Cathy). Beloved
grandfather to Britt, Emma, Claire, Andrew and Thomas.
Born in Edmonton and raised in Ottawa, Pat is predeceased by
his parents Martha
BRENNAN and Doctor Felix
FRENCH, his brothers
Felix, Doctor John, Reverend Monsignor Francis and his sisters,
Flora, Anna and Mary. Pat was schooled at St. Patrick's College
and graduated in Civil Engineering from Clarkson in Potsdam,
New York.
Pat served as a Captain in the Canadian Army and later as the
Captain of Clarkson's hockey team. And while he considered opportunities
in both the military and hockey, the opportunity of sharing his
life with Frannie was a decision that took him to Alberta where
together they raised a family.
Pat was a tireless advocate for the Misericordia Hospital in
Edmonton and the Order of Grey Nuns; for the Alberta and Canadian
Catholic Hospital Associations, and always a confidant of the
families who quietly helped each other in the good times and
bad that shaped his fifty years in Alberta.
As an engineer, Pat built the Rogers Pass. As a father, he taught
his children to skate like the wind and as a husband, he and
Frannie finished their work in Alberta and settled into the sanctuary
of their church and their love for each other before Frannie's
death in late February.
The visitation and funeral mass will be held at St. Florence
Chapel, Thunder Beach, Ontario. Visitation is Wednesday, April 30,
2: 00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The funeral mass is Thursday, May 1 at

Tennyson
