Pillar of community Bud
MORROW dies at 92
By Donna DURIC,
Friday,
February 01, 2008
"Bud" MORROW made Friends wherever he went. His life was marked
by honesty, fairness and active involvement in his community.
Right up until the day he died, he enjoyed life, Friends and
family.
Alred
Frederick "
Bud"
MORROW died on January 26 at Hanover and
District Hospital. He was 93.
More than 300 people came to his visitation on Monday. "I just
thought that was a testament to how respected and how well-liked
he was in this community," said his granddaughter, Christie.
"He was a pillar of the community."
Mr. MORROW, born in 1915 in Aneroid, Saskatchewan., spent his
early years as the second eldest of seven siblings moving around
throughout the prairies.
He hunted for supper on the way home from school until he quit
at 15 to help out the family. The Depression had hit and times
were tough. Mr.
MORROW became a sort of jack-of-all-trades as
he worked a variety of jobs - everything from butcher to hunter.
"He's our own version of Forest Gump," said Christie.
"He's seen it all and been through it all."
In 1939, after the Second World War broke out, Mr.
MORROW joined
the air force, based in Calgary.
He couldn't pilot an aircraft, though, because he was colour
blind, so he worked on the ground, doing repairs.
It was while he was repairing a Mosquito Bomber that he first
learned of Hanover. The town's name was imprinted on a wing he
was repairing, along with the names of the women working at the
factory based here that made the wings.
He would receive other serendipitous callings to Hanover later
on.
He started his family in 1943 in Calgary after marrying the late
Ruth MARSHALL, whose parents were originally of Allan Park, just
outside Hanover.
His in-laws had planned to come back and retire here. His first
son Doug was born, and Mr.
MORROW headed east to Toronto to get
discharged from the air force.
It was during that time he and Ruth decided to visit her parents
here in Hanover. He sent her and the baby on their way with one
train ticket and to save money, decided he would hitch hike here
and meet up with them.
A couple who spotted him in uniform in Bolton, Ontario just happened
to be heading to Hanover and offered him a ride.
What was supposed to be a visit turned into a permanent move.
He settled here and twins Al and Hildred were born. Today, Al
writes a bi-weekly column for The Post on the history of Hanover
and the surrounding area.
Mr. MORROW started a hardware business in downtown Hanover, at
the corner of 10th Street and 12th Avenue.
The building is still called The Morrow Centre today, even though
it's been more than 10 years since he sold the building.
He did home renovations, sold lumber and mixed paint for customers.
"People would drive from all over to get him to mix their paint,"
says Christie, noting the irony of that talent considering he
was colour-blind.
He began to join many committees and organizations while building
his successful business.
"Grandpa's philosophy was, 'if you live in the community and
earn your living in there, you give back to the community."
He was a member and one-time president of the Rotary Club for
62 years.
He served on the planning board for the town and helped shape
the layout of the town as it is today. He was chair of the high
school board, involved with the Friends of the Hanover Library
and an active member of Grace United Church, which he still attended
until his death whenever he felt well enough, said Al.
And he always carried a package of smarties to give to the little
ones. He was even buried with a package of smarties, said Al.
A man who spent his life moving around all over the continent
ended up in Hanover and his family believes he was always meant
to come here.
"We'll miss him. It's going to be a huge void in the fun department."

He was the 'king of real estate' who kick-started Toronto film
festival
After retiring 'at the top of his game,' he made a trip to France
and happened on Cannes and its film fête. Thus inspired, he returned
home to help launch one of his own
By Sandra MARTIN,
Page
S10
A lawyer who made serious money in real-estate deals in the 1950s
and 1960s, Dusty
COHL was seduced by the movie business and spent
the last 40 years schmoozing backers, stars and directors. Tall
and lanky, with a grizzled beard and an ear-to-ear grin, and
wearing his trademark black cowboy hat festooned with shiny pins
and badges and outré T-shirt, he appeared to be the epitome of
louche.
In fact, the film producer and co-founder of the Toronto International
Film Festival was a family man who remained married for more
than 50 years to the girl he met in high school. He was also
a genial and supportive father figure to many fledgling producers,
directors and programmers in the Canadian film business.
"He was unconventional in his ideas and his dress, but he wasn't
unconventional in his living habits and his loyalties," said
film and television producer Ted
KOTCHEFF. "He was the very heart
and soul of the Canadian film industry and the most lovable man
that I have ever met, hands down," said Mr.
KOTCHEFF, who had
known Mr. COHL "longer than anybody," dating back to summer camp
in the mid-1940s.
"Dusty broke the mould of the bland, boring, polite Canadian,
which was very important in the early days [of the Toronto film
festival]," said public-relations consultant Helga
STEPHENSON,
who began working for Toronto International Film Festival in
1978 and was executive director from the mid-1980s until the
early 1990s.
"With his huge sense of fun and flair, he helped a lot in getting
critics and filmmakers here," she said. "Once they got here,
they discovered it was a superb film festival, with an incredible
audience, and that Toronto was a great place to be. But getting
them here was the trick - and then he would entertain them once
they were here."
Murray (Dusty)
COHL was born on Euclid Street in Toronto in the
same year as the stock-market crash on Wall Street. His father,
Karl, was a Communist who worked as a house painter, a union
organizer and, ultimately, as an insurance agent, while his mother,
Lillian, sold bed linens at Eaton's, according to Brian D. Johnson
in Brave Films, Wild Nights: 25 years of Festival Fever.
An only child, he attended Charles G. Fraser elementary school
and Camp Naivelt (New World), a Bolshevik Jewish summer camp
west of Toronto, from the age of 5. It was at camp that he shed
his hated first name and acquired the nickname Dusty. Another
camper, Harris Black, was called Blacky, and the kids decided
that Murray
COHL should be Dusty, as in coal dust.
"He was my camp counsellor," said Mr.
KOTCHEFF, who attended
Camp Naivelt from 1943 through 1945. "He was my boyhood hero."
What Mr. KOTCHEFF loved about Dusty were the same qualities that
have always captured people's affections: "He was so full of
good humour and intelligence, and he was a born non-conformist.
Even back then, he was unconventional in his dress, which appeals
to young people." Dusty let his T-shirt hang outside his shorts
while the other counsellors were all tucked in.
"He had his own style," said Mr.
KOTCHEFF, who also has a much
darker memory from those days: seeing his hero "ejected" from
camp in the summer of 1945 after a "kangaroo court" found him
guilty of being an "anarchist Trotskyite" - at 16. "He always
saw that as a very amusing incident in his life, but that was
Dusty. He was dedicated to following his own vision of things.
He was an original."
After public school, he went to Harbord Collegiate from 1941 to
1947. That's where he met Joan
CAIRN, although she says she knew
of him from Camp Naivelt. When he asked her to dance, she felt
very comfortable in his arms, and thought he might be "the one."
After high school, he went to the University of Toronto, earning
a bachelor of arts degree in 1950. On December 23, 1951, he and
Joan married (they just celebrated their 56th wedding anniversary)
and eventually had three children, Robert, Karen and Steven.
After the U of T, he entered Osgoode Hall Law School, coming
first in his class one year and graduating with a law degree
in 1954. For most of the next 20 years, Mr.
COHL worked as a
zoning and real-estate lawyer, putting together land parcels
and property developments in Toronto and Florida. He was "tremendously
successful," according to his close friend, film producer Barry
Avrich, but retired from the business "at the top of his game"
when people starting referring to him as "the king of real estate."
In 1964, he and his wife were holidaying in the south of France
and she suggested they visit Cannes. By chance, they found a
parking place in front of the Carlton Hotel, ordered a drink
on the terrace and "saw and felt the pulse of the action" of
the annual film festival, which happened to be on at the same
time. "I was like a kid falling into Disneyland," he said later.
It was another four years before they returned to Cannes, but,
from then on, they were regulars at its film festival.
In 1973, he met William (Bill)
MARSHALL, a filmmaker and communications
whiz who had helped propel David Crombie into the Toronto mayor's
office in 1972 and was then working as his executive assistant.
Both Mr. MARSHALL and Mr.
COHL have claimed credit for the idea
of launching a film festival in Toronto; what is certainly true
is that they both embraced the concept as enthusiastically as
seals sliding down water slides.
After visiting film festivals in Berlin and Atlanta, the two
men went to Cannes, where they rented a suite at the Carlton,
ensconced themselves in the bar on the terrace and started schmoozing.
"Dusty was the only person I knew in Canada who had actually
been to Cannes in those days," Mr.
MARSHALL recollected in a
telephone interview.
"There were only about six of us making movies," he said. "We
wanted a film festival [in Toronto] because foreign people might
come and we'd get to sell our movies." Henk
VAN
DER
KOLK (Mr.
MARSHALL's
partner in a company they enthusiastically called the Film Consortium
of Canada) was the managing director of the festival, Mr.
MARSHALL
was the executive director, and Mr.
COHL was "the accomplice."
As such, he was to schmooze and, in Mr.
MARSHALL's estimation,
there was nobody better at talking, bringing people together
and creating a buzz.
In October of 1976, they launched the Toronto International Film
Festival at the Ontario Place Cinesphere on a budget of about
$500,000, half of which was in goods and services. That first
year, they wantonly courted Warren Beatty through a Toronto cousin,
but he failed to show. Unexpectedly, Jeanne Moreau and Dino De
Laurentiis did. And they had a bit of luck by screening Cousin,
Cousine, which was later nominated for three Academy Awards.
In 1978, they defied the then-powerful but now-defunct Ontario
Censor Board by showing an uncut version of In Praise of Older
Women, based on Stephen Vizinczey's bestseller, and almost caused
a riot by handing out 4,000 passes to a screening at a cinema
that only seated 1,000. The overflow crowd engendered one of
the slick-talking Mr.
MARSHALL's more elusive qualifiers: "We're
not oversold. We're just over-attended."
After three years, Mr.
COHL and Mr.
MARSHALL retreated and Wayne
CLARKSON became the first of several professional managers of
the burgeoning festival.
In addition to Toronto International Film Festival, which has
long been one of the top film festivals in the world, Mr.
COHL
put his "accomplice" skills to work, co-producing feature films
such as Outrageous! - based on a short story by Margaret Gibson
(obituary, March 15, 2006) and starring her friend, impersonator
Craig Russell - and The Circle Game. He was a consulting producer
on The Last Mogul, Rush: Grace Under Pressure Tour, Guilty Pleasure,
The Extraordinary World of Dominick Dunne and Bowfire and was
executive producer of The Scales of Justice, which began on Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation Radio in the 1980s and was aired on
Canadian Broadcasting Corporation-television from 1991 to 1995.
Hosted by lawyer Edward
GREENSPAN, it featured docudramas based
on real cases in Canadian criminal law.
Mr. COHL also worked with his cousin, rock promoter Michael
COHL,
famous for organizing tours for the Rolling Stones and other
pop stars, on a concert series on cable television in the 1980s
called First Choice Rocks. Less successfully, the two
COHLs worked
with basketball legend Wilt Chamberlain in an attempt to bring
an National Basketball Association franchise to Toronto. "I miss
him already," Michael
COHL said yesterday. "He was great."
In 1990, Mr.
COHL started the Floating Film Festival, an almost
annual, luxury Caribbean cruise featuring films programmed by
critics such as Roger Ebert, Richard Corliss and George Anthony.
The Floating Film Festival combined the best elements of "the
smallness of Telluride, the warmth of Toronto and the glamour
of Cannes," according to Mr.
COHL. It even had its own emblematic
T-shirt depicting an art deco-style cruise ship flying a flag
with a cowboy hat inspired by Mr.
COHL's black Stetson. The 10th
edition of the Floating Film Festival, which will sail from Los
Angeles on February 25, is dedicated to Mr.
COHL and features
a tribute to actress Gena Rowlands.
Mr. COHL was also a member of the founding board of Canada's
Walk of Fame, which, since its inception in 1998, has celebrated
the achievements of more than 100 music, arts and sports celebrities,
including Wayne Gretzky, Karen Kain, Gordon Pinsent and Kiefer
Sutherland, by encasing their names in a slab of cement on the
sidewalks in the entertainment district. In May of 2003, Mr.
COHL
was invested into the Order of Canada for "his pride in Canadian
talent" and his "desire to celebrate our achievements."
Late last fall, he was diagnosed with liver cancer.
Murray (Dusty)
COHL was born in Toronto on February 21, 1929.
He died at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre of liver cancer
on January 11, 2007. He was 78. Mr.
COHL is survived by his wife,
Joan, three children and five grandchildren. There will be a
private family funeral followed by a public celebration of his
life at a later date.

He leaves his loving brother Professor Donald Peter (Ruth
HIGGINS
deceased). Aubrey was born in Orillia, November 29, 1915. He
attended Oakwood Collegiate in Toronto. Following studies at
the University of Toronto he enrolled in the graduate program
at U.B.C. (Vancouver) obtaining his M.A. (Geology) in 1942. Immediately
following this he was recruited by Imperial Oil as part of Canada's
war effort to search for oil in Southern Alberta. After years
of exploration with Aubrey as field geologist, Leduc 'blew in'
February 13, 1947, changing the course of Canadian history, making
Alberta a major player in the world oil market. In 1959 Aubrey
was chosen by the National Energy Board as Chief Geologist and
the family moved to Ottawa. Following success in the capital
he retired and returned to Calgary in 1975. He turned his attention
to an intense study of the history of Alberta's oil industry
by collecting and documenting a wealth of information. He interviewed
and taped many 'oil patch' personalities leaving a large collection
to the Glenbow Museum Archives, Calgary. All of this culminated
in eight great books (including Leduc, Redwater and Atlantic #3).
In 1998 he received an honourary Doctors degree from the University
of Calgary and was inducted into the Petroleum Hall of Fame in
Leduc. He participated in numerous professional organizations
including the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum
and Association of Professional Engineers, Geologists and Geophysicists
of Alberta. He was involved in the Anglican church. Both he and
Elsie enjoyed annual escapes from the -30 degree weather to visit
Barbados and Victoria. He continued to be involved with his writing
even to his ninety-first year. The family wish to thank the staff
of Trinity Lodge, Calgary for their decisive professional actions
and care as well as the outstanding medical staff of the Rockyview
Hospital, Calgary. Service at Anglican Christ Church Calgary

the eldest of four children, and is survived by husband David,

by a wide circle of devoted Friends, who loved her for her kindness,
thoughtfulness, and a readiness to extend a helping hand to those
in need, and we are all better for having known her. Anne retired

Recreation Centre. Anne donated her body to the Canadian Memorial
Chiropractic College for teaching and research. Our grateful
thanks go to Doctor

ROTHER and staff
at the Credit Valley Hospital Oncology Centre, and many others
who helped us in our time of need. A memorial service and reception
to celebrate her life will be held at Saint Paul's United Church,
454 Rebecca Street, Oakville, on Thursday, August 7th at 3 p.m.
