HORNER, Sandra
In loving memory of a dear wife and grandmother who passed away March 8, 2002.
Our hearts are full of memories
We treasure them with care,
The way you had to leave us
Will always seem unfair
Sad are the hearts that love you
Silent are the tears that fall,
Living our lives without you
Is the hardest pan of all.
In all that life has given us
And all that's left to do,
We will never have a greater gift
Than the time we spent with you.
- Lovingly remembered, Gerald and family.

HARVEY, David (1909-2008)
Peacefully in his 99th year at the Westbury Long Term Care Facility on Saturday, March 8th, after a very long and full life. Loved brother of Kay HORNSBY and husband Joe, Violet, the late Doris, Betty, Jessie and George. Brother-in-law to Winnie. Beloved uncle of the late Jimmy GRADWELL. Dearly missed by nieces and nephews, Dianne (Ralph) and family, Sue (Henry), David, Michael (Henrietta) and family. Long time cherished friend of Reva Lawry. David was born in Edinburgh, Scotland on September 25, 1909. He was a man of many talents - a dancer, singer, actor, comedian, prize fighter and world traveller. He arrived in Canada in 1922, and at age 13 found himself a job at the Glidden Paint Factory. This career proved not exciting enough for a boy of many talents. It was the vaudeville era and David felt the pull of show business, so he began performing in amateur talent contests where he won first prize, a grand total of three dollars, after singing "The Bells Are Ringing for Me and My Gal". He then realized that performing was more enjoyable than pouring paint. For years after that he picked up a few dollars here and there as a singer and entertainer in the Toronto theatres. When his dancing and singing routine wasn't paying enough, he took to the waters to work the tour boat excursions on the Cayuga and Chippewa as a mess boy, serving the crew. At age 20, David wanted more excitement in his life and with the stock market crashing and jobs being few, he decided to ride the cars of the railway to Alaska, the Yukon and then on to Vancouver. The next journey in his life took him to stage and television. He performed in many commercials for Esso, Leons, Speedy Lube, and Nokia. He appeared in many movies including Mrs. Sofel's Daughter, Midnight Eyes, Sea of Love, and Moonstruck as well as the theatrical productions of Tommy Boy, Goosebumps, Stepping Out, Taking the Heat and the television series King of Kensington and many SCTV series. David was central to the formation of Club Milango Tango Club in Toronto, as well as co-founder of the Radio Artists of Toronto Society and in 1942, co-founder of the Alliance of Canadian Television Radio Actors, now known as ACTRA. David's passion for travel took him to numerous countries of the world. He was not shy and always willing to try anything once. This included sailing, skiing, scuba diving, riding elephants in India and camels in Turkey. He spent many years living abroad in New Zealand, Indonesia, Bali and Italy. Unfortunately, he was not able to live out his dream to travel to Patagonia. David was a fun loving, active gentleman with a wonderful sense of humour. He had a never-ending lust for life, travel and dancing. The family wishes to sincerely thank the 2nd floor staff at The Westbury who treated David with much care, love, dignity and Friendship during his time there. Visitation to celebrate David's life will take place on Saturday, March 15th at Turner and Porter Funeral Hom (Butler Chapel), 4933 Dundas Street West, Toronto (between Islington and Kipling Aves.) from 1: 00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m., with a service at 3:00 p.m. and a reception to follow. The family gratefully declines the acceptance of flowers, and asks that donations be made to the Dorothy Ley Hospice, Toronto Grace Hospital or a charity of your choice.

HORNYANSKY, Michael Sands

From far, from eve and morning
And yon twelve-winded sky,
The stuff of life to knit me
Blew hither: here am I.
Now -- for a breath I tarry
Nor yet disperse apart --
Take my hand quick and tell me,
What have you in your heart.
Speak now, and I will answer
How shall I help you, say
Ere to the wind's twelve quarters
I take my endless way.

CULLITON, Margaret Agatha (née REICH)
Prophet, wife, mother, grandmother. Born December 31, 1921, in Otter Creek, Ontario Died October 14, 2007, in Hanover, Ontario, of Alzheimer's disease, aged 85.
By J.P. HORRIGAN, Page L8
Margaret Agatha (Marg) was bilingual - German at home, English elsewhere. The eighth child of Francis REICH and Josephine HOFARTH, she grew up between Walkerton and Mildmay, Ontario
Marg's mother died at the age of 36 in childbirth. After Grade 5, Marg became a hausfrau - housekeeper - to her father, nanny to her nine surviving siblings and unpaid farm worker in any other "free" time.
Intellectually gifted, Marg enjoyed gardening, nature, children and family, although reading and writing were not her strengths. She had a green thumb and an acute perception of the relationship between environment and ecology. She was already an avid promoter of things natural in the 1930s.
In 1942, Marg moved 30 kilometres away to Ayton, Ontario, and was hired on as housekeeper at Saint Peter's parish.
Every week she would visit an elderly neighbour who had a twentysomething nephew, Jim, who also regularly dropped in on his uncle. Marg and Jim's paths crossed one day, and then on several other occasions. They ended up walking the same path together for more than 40 years.
It was a challenging marriage with turns in the road, not to mention hills and dales. Two children arrived in rapid succession, starting in 1946. Then Marg began displaying bizarre, unexpected behaviour. She was diagnosed with schizophrenia, a word not even in Jim CULLITON's vocabulary.
Marg was admitted to hospital locally, then transferred to Victoria Hospital in London, Ontario In the late 1940s, schizophrenia was sometimes treated by lobotomy. Jim turned to his family and to prayer, and decided to permit the operation. It was a huge risk. It worked. Marg improved significantly and returned home.
Three children later, another less intense hospitalization was in order. That too was successful. Two more healthy babies arrived.
Marg successfully raised seven children, saw them grow to adulthood and witnessed each one marry.
In March, 1989, Jim suffered a stroke. Then Marg developed Alzheimer's disease. Long-term care was the only option. For almost 15 years, Marg's seven children faithfully visited her in Hanover Care Centre.
Family and faith were constants in Marg's life, unswerving in good times and bad. Family was the treatment of choice for her mental-health issues. After her death, all seven children, eleven grandchildren, one great-grandchild and a church filled to capacity came out to celebrate her unbelievable life of achievement.
J.P. HORRIGAN is one of Marg's nephews.

HILL- SMITH, Colleen Patricia (née HILL)
Precious daughter of Mr. Frederick W. HILL and the late Margaret Shirley HILL passed away on June 2nd, 2008 in San Diego, California peacefully and in the spirit of generosity that shaped her life. Just shy of sixty years, Colleen will also be deeply missed by her brothers and their wives, Paul and Carol HILL of Regina, Saskatchewan; Daniel and Anne HILL of Berkshire, England; Terrence HILL of Vancouver; also mourned by her most beloved sister and her husband, Marylyn and Jack HORSMAN of Kelowna, British Columbia. Colleen will also be forever remembered by 13 adoring nieces and nephews; Rosanne HILL- BLAISDELL, Shannon HILL, Matthew HILL, January YANKO- HILL, Kathryn▼ HILL, as well as Misters James HILL, Connor HILL, Patrick HILL, and Joseph HILL. Together with Danielle BEARS, Jonathon HORSMAN, Andrea LEFEBVRE and Stephen HORSMAN. Born in Regina, Saskatchewan, Colleen attended both Holy Rosary Elementary School and Marion High School, and will be remembered as a Provincial champion athlete in badminton. Graduating from the Convent of the Sacred Heart in Montreal, Colleen began her studies at Newton College of the Sacred Heart in Boston, Massachusetts in the late 60's. This is where she met her life long best friend Leslie TALBOT, who walked beside Colleen in the last months of her brave journey. An intrepid traveller, Colleen lived and studied in India, New Zealand and Hawaii. In 1977 she married Mr. Leo SMITH of San Francisco. They ran a successful storage company together in Lahaina, Maui for several years until Leo's passing. Colleen then continued her studies in China in 1983, and the Dominican University of San Rafael in Marin County, California in 1984. She was a natural teacher, a gifted holistic health practitioner and a passionate lover of people. Anyone who had the privilege of knowing Colleen will miss her genuine interest in their lives, her sage repartee, and advise (given freely), and her sparkling sense of humour. The family extends special thanks to Colleen's many devoted Friends… and our heartfelt thanks goes to The Hospice of San Diego and especially to Doctor Roger Strong and all the angel caregivers. Prayers for Colleen are at 4: 00 p.m. on Sunday, June 8 at Mother of Confidence Church at 3131 Governor Drive, San Diego, California. The funeral service will be held at 10: 00 a.m. on Monday, June 9th at St. Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church, 3459 Manchester Avenue, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, California.

HILL, Frederick▼ Walter▼ Hembling▼
Born September 2, 1920, passed away peacefully on Sunday, July 13, 2008 at his home in Regina, Saskatchewan. Third son of the late Walter A. HILL and Grace E. HILL, Mr.▼ HILL was predeceased by his brothers, James, Edward and Robert; by his beloved wife Margaret 'Shirley' (MULVIHILL) HILL; and most recently his daughter, Colleen Hill SMITH. Mr.▼ HILL leaves to cherish his memory his children, Paul (Carol) HILL, Regina, Saskatchewan; Terrence HILL, Vancouver, British Columbia; Daniel (Anne) HILL, England; and Marylyn (Jack) HORSMAN, Windfield,▼ British▼ Columbia.▼ He will also be remembered as their beloved Patriarch to his many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, along with their families - Rosanne Hill BLAISDELL, Shannon▼ HILL, Matthew HILL, Jan YANKO, Kathryn▲▼ HILL; James HILL, Conor HILL, Patrick HILL, Joseph▼ HILL; Danielle BEARS, Jonathon HORSMAN, Andrea LEFEBVRE, Stephen▼ HORSMAN; and Mia HILL. He left us all a gift of Faith… 'that those who have lived in love, never see each other for the last time'. Born in Regina, Fred attended Lakeview Public School, Campion High School, and the University of Saskatchewan (B.A.). While attending the Harvard Business School in 1942, Fred joined the U.S. Army Air Force piloting B-17 Flying Fortress Bombers, serving in the 15th Air Force in Italy and the 8th Air Force in England. For unflinching service he received the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Air Medal with Three Oak Leaf Clusters. Upon graduating with distinction from Harvard with an MBA in 1947, Fred returned to his home province of Saskatchewan to join his father in The Hill Companies real estate and insurance business. He developed the first private residential sub-division in Saskatchewan (Hillsdale) since the 1920's. He also participated in the first light sweet crude discovery oil well in Creelman, Saskatchewan. Fred's entrepreneurial skill and business judgment were revered by all those who knew him. Subsequently he became a director of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Chairman and Director of Harvard Developments Inc. (A Hill Company), Harvard Energy (Calgary, Alberta), Western Surety Company, Harvard Investments Inc. (Phoenix, Arizona), Harvard Broadcasting, and for years he considered it an honour to serve as a member of the Papal Foundation in Rome. A man of big stature, gifted with a laser intellect and a legendary humour, Fred enjoyed reminiscing and a rousing debate. He read voraciously, loved people to the extreme and was a fully involved citizen of our world. But in his quieter hours he practiced a private and direct empathy for the vulnerable amongst us. We heard him often say… 'it is far better to err on the side of generosity'. He was a Christian profoundly dedicated to his Faith. Following the death of Msgr. Athol Murray (1976), and at the request of the Board of Regents, Fred picked up the torch from his life-long mentor 'Père', to carry on the work at Notre Dame College in Saskatchewan. From that point on, Fred maintained a life-long commitment to help young students achieve their total potential in mind, body and spirit at Notre Dame. In addition, he personally dedicated his time and resources to helping countless individuals from around the world to attain their educational and spiritual goals. Many of these people were entirely unknown to his family. He was passionately dedicated to supporting Catholic and numerous other charities. In the mid 80's he assisted Mother Teresa's work in Canada. Fred proudly became a member of the Order of Canada in 1986 and was also a recipient of the Saskatchewan Order of Merit, the Canada 125 Medal, the Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal and the Cross of Merit Sovereign Military Order of Malta. Most recently he was appointed Knight Commander of the Order of St. Gregory the Great by Pope Benedict XVI. And now in the words of Grant Harvey eulogizing FDR… 'there will forever more be an empty place against the sky'. The body will lie in repose at Holy Rosary Cathedral, 3125 13th Avenue, Regina, Saskatchewan on Wednesday, July 16, 2008 from 7: 00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. for private prayers. Funeral service will be held on Thursday, July 17th at 11: 00 a.m. at Holy Rosary Cathedral, 3125 13th Avenue, Regina, Saskatchewan followed by a U.S. Air Force Honour Guard ceremony at the Riverside Memorial Park Cemetery, 815 Assiniboine Ave. E. Funeral arrangements entrusted to Speers Funeral Chapel, Regina, Saskatchewan. The Hill family has requested that all Friends and colleagues wishing to celebrate Fred's memory make a donation to the Athol Murray College of Notre Dame, Box 100, Wilcox, Saskatchewan, S0G 5E0, c/o Mr. David Kenney.

HORVATH o@ca.on.york_county.toronto.globe_and_mail 2008-05-19 published
HORVATH, Rev. Tibor, S.J.
Father Tibor died peacefully on Saturday, May 17th at René Goupil House, Pickering, Ontario in his 81st year, the 62nd year of his religious life. He was born on July 28, 1927 in Banhida, Komarom-Es, Hungary. His father was Janos HORVATH and his mother Rozalia MARKUS. He entered the Hungarian Province of the Society of Jesus on the 30th of July, 1946. As a young Jesuit he escaped from Hungary, then under the Communist domination, and studied in various parts of Europe. He was ordained deacon and priest in Granada, Spain in 1957. He completed his studies with a doctorate in theology from the Gregorian University in Rome on the virtue of charity in the thought of Saint Thomas Aquinas. He came to Canada in 1962 with many other Hungarians and joined a significant community of Hungarian Jesuits in Canada. From 1962 through to 1997, Tibor was a professor of Theology at Regis College in Toronto, becoming a research professor in his later years. He was regarded as a brilliant and exciting professor. Some have said later on that he was the very best professor they ever had in their Theological studies. In 1978 he founded and edited 'Ultimate Reality and Meaning' an encyclopedic project which goes on to this day. In 1980 he became the director of METEM (International Society of Toronto for Hungarian Church History.) For two years beginning in 1994 he returned to Hungary to be the founding principal of a Jesuit High School (Gymnasium) in Miskolcs. Since then, most of his ministry has been scholarly writing. He completed most of a trilogy on the whole of systematic theology, based on the virtues of faith, love and hope. He is highly respected, and a very large circle of people has been attracted to his work. Tibor was a most gentle and kind man, and a very intelligent conversation partner. Over the years he encouraged many younger Jesuits to take intellectual ministry very seriously. He was very well appreciated at the Canadian Martyrs' Residence, 2 Dale Avenue where he lived since 1977. He suffered from ill health during most of his life, especially during his studies, but was able to work with a great sense of purpose and energy, though in recent years he became more fragile and had to manage his health very carefully. As did other Hungarian colleagues who escaped persecution in their own country and came to Canada, he has made a signal contribution to the work of the Jesuit order here and abroad. Visitation will be held at the Rosar-Morrison Funeral Home and Chapel 467 Sherbourne St. (south of Wellesley) on Tuesday, May 20 from 2-4 p.m. and from 7-9 p.m. at the Manresa Retreat Chapel in Pickering with a wake service at 8 p.m. Funeral Mass celebrated by Bishop Attila MIKLÓSHAZY at Manresa Retreat Chapel in Pickering on Wednesday, May 21 at 11 a.m. Interment will follow at a later date in the Hungarian Jesuit Cemetery in Courtland, Ontario. In lieu of flowers, donations may be offered to the Jesuit Development Office 1325 Bay St. Toronto, Ontario M5R 2C4.

Adored father of Bradley, Lorayne, Roslyn and Diana. Dear father-in- law of Christopher WINN, Jill GLASGOW, Franklin McCARTHY and Richard SHANNON. A very special "Tumpy"'to his 10 grandchildren, Timothy, David, Matthew, Strachan, John, Sarah, Alexandra, Kate, Kirk and Taylor and 6 great-grandchildren, Logan, Caiden, Declan, Ian, Miles and Laura. His eternal optimism and joy of life were an inspiration to all who knew him. His energy at 93 was daunting, whether it was hosting the extended family Christmas party, convening a reunion of McGill's engineering class of '37 or attending the Montreal Symphony Orchestra or the theatre in Montreal. A celebration of his life will be held Friday, June 20, 2008 at 10: 30 at St. Francis of the Birds in St. Sauveur. In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to the St. Francis of the Birds Alter Guild, 94 rue St. Denis, St. Sauveur, Québec J0R 1R3 or The Old Brewery Mission, 383 rue St. Jacques, Montreal, Québec H2Y 1N9.
