GREGOR, Tibor▼ Philip
Tibor Philip GREGOR, industry executive, passionate Rotarian, keen tennis player and a veteran of World War 2 service as a Czechoslovak in the allied forces attached to the British army, died at his home on Saturday, February 2nd, 2008. He was 88 years old. A proud Canadian by choice and a Torontonian for over half a century, Tibor was an irrepressible optimist. He was a bright, garrulous -- and willing -- public speaker who addressed countless groups around Canada and the world in multiple languages on subjects ranging from Haiti's water needs to the particulars of the soft drink industry, whose association he directed for 16 years after a career in the office equipment and sand and gravel businesses. Tibor's firm belief in community service, bolstered by help he, a penniless refugee, received from a Rotary Club in the London suburb of Watford, led him to join the Rotary Club of Millom, Cumberland in 1949. Over the next six decades he served as president of the Toronto Eglinton Rotary Club, a District Governor, a Director and Treasurer of Rotary International, and Trustee of the Rotary Foundation. He travelled the globe representing numerous presidents of Rotary International, and he proudly celebrated 50 years of perfect attendance at weekly Rotary meetings. Tibor also served in leadership positions at the Metro Toronto and Canadian Associations for the Mentally Retarded, was founding president of the Friends of the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts, a member of the City of Toronto Citizens Centenary Committee. He participated actively in the life of the Ionic Lodge, the Royal Canadian Military Institute and the Czech Legion in Canada. At home, Tibor was a fierce and able tennis player. (He played his final match last October at the Toronto Lawn Tennis Club, where he was a member for half a century.) He bolstered the growth of Toronto's art community in kinship with his beloved Helen, an internationally-known tapestry designer and the mother of their two children, Jan and Anne. After Helen's death in 1989, Tibor married Val COSTA, a dear friend and companion, who predeceased him. Tibor was seen constantly among Friends, emitting clouds of smoke from the pipes that were as much a part of Tibor as his blue eyes and wide smile topped by a narrow, bushy moustache. Against considerable evidence to the contrary, Tibor was convinced of the charm of his ubiquitous clouds of smoke. It kept pipe smokers 'calm, cool and collected,' he used to say as he railed about the growing opposition to smoking. This was the public Tibor. Close Friends and family will remember him as a loving and witty man, a tender father and companion, someone who spoke proudly of his worldwide circle of Friends from all generations. He communicated in the old style. Tibor was a prolific correspondent, a fast typist of thousands of missives. His recollection of high-school Latin was formidable, with Cicero and Cato close at hand for discussions. Tibor Philip GREGOR was born April 25th, 1919 in Levoca, a medieval town that looks up to the Tatra Mountains of Slovakia. An outstanding student, he attended the London School of Economics, but war intervened. His extensive army service included a landing on Day 3 at the Normandy beaches, followed by the hard battles of the Allied march across Europe. His arrival as one of the first allied military at the Dachau concentration camp was an experience he spoke of only in his later years. After the war he and Helen emigrated to Canada to build a new life with their children. Tibor is survived by his loving son, Jan Michael, his daughter, Anne Helena, his granddaughter, Martha Alice Helen ROSE and son-in-law, Frederick Barker ROSE and the countless Friends who visited and called, sent cards, emails and letters during Tibor's short illness. A memorial service is scheduled for 2 p.m., Friday, February 8, at Rosedale United Church, 159 Roxborough Drive, Toronto with a reception to follow at the Toronto Lawn Tennis Club, 44 Price Street. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations in his name to endow Czech language and cultural studies at the University of Toronto. Cheques should be made out to the University of Toronto and sent to: Office of Advancement, Faculty of Arts and Science, 100 St. George Street, Suite 2032, Toronto, Ontario M5S 3G3 or contact Monica Lin tel. (416) 946-5616 or email mlin@artsci.utoronto.ca

GREGOR, Tibor▲
Soldier, salesman, Rotarian, tennis player, pipe smoker. Born April 25, 1919, in Slovakia. Died February 2 of old age in Toronto, aged 88.
By Allan FOTHERINGHAM, Page L6
What a wonderful life.
Tibor was sent to the London School of Economics at 18, only to have his education interrupted by a chap called Hitler.
He pursued the Nazis across Europe with a Czech battalion attached to the British Army, from the Normandy invasion to the Dachau death camp.
He arrived in Canada after the war with his wife, Helen, and two small children, armed only with a tennis racquet, a pipe and his charm.
Tibor joined a Rotary Club in 1949 and over the next six decades served as president of the Rotary Club of Toronto Eglinton, district governor, a director and treasurer of Rotary International, and a trustee of the Rotary Foundation.
Roaming the globe in his business ventures, which included office equipment, the sand and gravel business and the soft-drink industry, he never missed a weekly Rotary meeting in whatever continent he was on, and proudly achieved 50 years of perfect attendance, puffing away all the while.
Tibor seldom put down his tennis racquet, let alone his pipe.
A member of the Toronto Lawn Tennis Club for 50 years, he used to tell of the days when his club still had a lawn, rather than artificial surfaces. When the winter weather grew cold enough, they would take down the nets, turn on the loudspeakers and the floodlights, and Tibor and Friends and their sweethearts would skate the night away over the frozen grass.
When he was 86, he still topped the leaderboard at his club for the over-50 players, known internally as the "Geezers" - most of them 25 years his junior. He played his final match at the club last October, before he took to his bed.
Tibor's wit was as strong as his tobacco and, in arguments, he could always deflate his opponents with some Latin quotation remembered from his high-school education. His numerous Friends were collected from his travels around the globe, and he corresponded regularly with them on a typewriter that also smoked with its speed.
As his health faded last fall, he wrote all of them a letter ending with "fare well." There is a classy gentleman.
Tibor is remembered for what he gave back to his adopted country. He supported the Canadian Association for the Mentally Retarded, the Friends of the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts, the Ionic Lodge, the Czech Legion and on and on.
He leaves his beloved daughter Anne, son Jan and his legions of local Friends, all covered by a cloud of smoke.
Allan FOTHERINGHAM is Tibor's friend.

KORTE, Adele
With all of us feeling that a future without Mom (a.k.a. Nana) has arrived at our doorstep far sooner than any of us hoped it would, the daughters and partners of Adele KORTE (Johanne/Rick GREGORY, Nancie/Andy WOLFF, Lu/Sue KING and Karen KORTE and Heidi/Bob McKEE) announce her sudden death March 28, 2008, while visiting family in Toronto. In true KORTE fashion she made her exit while packing the car to go skiing for the weekend! Adele was predeceased by her parents Gustave and Maria VOGEL, and her beloved brothers Ed and Don. It's said that you can tell a lot about a woman by rifling through her purse. As we stare at its contents poured out on the kitchen table, we realize Adele's bulging bag was no exception. A favourite watch of her husband Johan who predeceased her in 2007 after 51 years of marriage, photos of her adored 11 grandchildren (Ryan, Keli, Lian and Derek GREGORY, Makena, Hayden and Lake KORTE- MOORE, Quincy and Jesse KORTE- KING and Kayla and Kieran McKEE,) very old and stale but still used tubes of lipstick that spoke of a woman who was 'a child of the depression' beside blank cheques that were generously dispatched to make sure we never would be, a driver's license with the date of birth showing her to be younger than she actually was, Turkish lira and Saudi riyals, a much used library card, and, at the very bottom, a tiny yellowed newspaper clipping with words memory tells us she took to heart; 'You may have tangible wealth untold, Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold, Richer than I you can never be, I had a mother who read to me' In Adele's memory, grab a coffee, grab a book and grab a child. Not necessarily in that order! Friends are invited to visit at the Central Chapel of Hulse, Playfair and McGarry, 315 McLeod Street, on Tuesday, April 1, 2008 from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. Funeral Service will be held in the Chapel on Wednesday, April 2, 2008 at 2: 30 p.m. Condolences may be sent to korte.nomad@gmail.com.

He is survived and forever rejoiced in by his wife Doris, his children Cheryle OLDROYD (Laurie), Beverly GRENVILLE- MYHAL (Allan HUTCHINSON/HUTCHISON,) Gregory MYHAL (Hoa,) and Denise PARRY (Roger,) as well as by his sisters Helen MANTON and Pauline BONYUN. He was a favourite 'Grandad Johnny' to his many loving grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Predeceased by his sisters Kay ROPER, Anne BARNES, and big brother Mike MYHAL. John attended Brantford Collegiate Institute and served in the Royal Canadian Air Force during the war. After 1945, he returned to Brantford and began his cabinetmaking career on Richardson Street where he created his woodworking masterpieces for the next 60 years. Examples of his superb craftsmanship grace numerous homes and businesses throughout Brant County. In the summer, when not 'at the shop', John could be found perfecting his other passion on the local golf fair ways. He was a formidable opponent, but always a more generous friend and playing partner - he achieved his treasured 'hole in one' late on in his career at the Burford Golf Links. John will be loved and remembered by all for his bighearted spirit, his corny sense of humour, and always 'being there' for family and Friends. Please join our family in celebrating John's modest, but still remarkable and exemplary life. If a man's life can be measured by the firmness and warmth of his handshake, then John had no equal. Visitation will be held at McCleister Funeral Home, 495 Park Rd. N. Brantford, on Friday from 7-9 p.m. And Saturday from 3-5 p.m. A Memorial Service will take place in the Chapel on Saturday at 5: 00 p.m. As expressions of sympathy, donations in John's memory made to the Grand River Conservation Foundation would be appreciated.
