MORRISEAU, Christopher Thomas
Musician, poet, artist. Born January 2, 1979, in Thunder Bay. Died January 23 in Kingston's Joyceville Institution of accidental poisoning, aged 29.
By Andre MORRISEAU, Page L6
Christopher was a free-spirited child who from a young age had a hard time with authority. It wasn't that he was a bad child - he just ran on a different clock, with his own timetable and set of rules that often landed him on the wrong side of right.
Being alone was one of Christopher's greatest fears. As an only child raised by his mother on the Fort William First Nation outside Thunder Bay, he craved Friendship and a crowd. Always the funny one in a group, he used his social skills to fight his loneliness and his blue-eyed good looks to break more than his share of young hearts.
Christopher was surrounded by the many challenges that face young people growing up on reserves in this country. From the age of 11 he was in and out of institutions.
He exercised his creative abilities by gravitating toward music, becoming a talented guitar player. His poetry could easily disarm, filling the pages of many youthful journals with his dreams and his pain.
He never knew his birth father, Tom MARKHAM, until they reunited when Christopher was in his mid-20s.
His Grandma Pat strove to bring order to his chaotic life with weekly jaunts to yard sales and lots of love. His mother, Carol, was more like a sister and best friend. His Uncle Andre, who lived in the city, always spoiled him, promising that when Chris turned 18 he could move to Toronto and live with him.
In late May, 2007, Christopher came to live with his uncle again after being released on parole on a charge of aggravated assault. Registered in the Indigenous Culture and Media Innovations program at Toronto's Native Canadian Centre, he began to thrive like never before. Whether writing, acting or behind the camera, Christopher was seeing life through the eyes of creative challenge and accomplishment.
It was here that he met Kendra, a fellow classmate. For six months they were inseparable. Christopher wanted to make each moment with her an occasion to remember.
In early December, Christopher was re-incarcerated for failing a urine test. Sadly, the next month he passed away after drinking homemade alcohol, only six weeks before he would have been released with a clean slate.
Christopher leaves behind his daughter Asha, sons Raiden and Christopher Junior. In his short life he shared a heart filled with love, a mind filled with dreams and a passion that will live forever. The boy nicknamed Blue has passed through the clouds to a gentler horizon where love is secure and Friends abound.
Andre MORRISEAU is Christopher's uncle.

She was involved in The Victorian Order of Nurses, Third Oshawa Brownies and Guides, University Women's Club (charter member), and St Andrew's United Church. Travelling, reading, cottage life, gardening, playing bridge and piano brought Flora great delight, but the greatest joy came from close Friends and her beloved family- her grandmothers, parents, aunts, uncles, thirty-nine first cousins, brothers Bruce and Stewart, and their families: Mary McROBERTS, Pam McROBERTS and Neil, Alanna and Brynn OSTVIK, Bob and Susanne, Corey, and Patrick McROBERTS, Donald, Christine, and Mark McROBERTS, Cecil SPROULE, Jim and Marylyn SPROULE, John and Wiebke, Haldon, Dana, and Kelsey SPROULE, Debi SPROULE and George, Taryn, and Breanne SCOTT, Dorcas FULTON and Donald, Nick and Tony MORRISH.

LINKLATER, Harold Fraser
Harold Fraser LINKLATER was born on October 1, 1917 in Teeswater, Ontario to Harvey and Gladys (née Mason FRASER) LINKLATER. He was the oldest of three brothers. Until his death all four of them were still living - I'm sure that is a record for four brothers who had survived World War 2. Harold died at 90 and all his brothers are in their 80s. His great-grandparents arrived in Canada from the Orkneys in Scotland in 1852 and some of his great-uncles had come to Canada with the Hudson's Bay Company. The family moved to Kincardine in August 1929 when his father Harvey bought the furniture store and funeral home from W.H.A. MORRISON. He worked helping his father from age 12, but really started that career in 1935 when he finished Grade 12. In 1937-38 he took courses at the Banting Institute and General Hospital in Toronto. At 19 he got his license as an undertaker but couldn't use it until he was 21. He married Nora Elizabeth DIMOND on November 20, 1940. In May 1940 he had joined the Canadian army. He went into Officer training in Brockville and between 1940 to 1943 he was stationed in Ontario, Manitoba and British Columbia. In World War 2 he went overseas in June 1944 before the invasion of France and stayed there until the fall of 1946. He was in the 19th Self-Propelled Regiment. He was a Captain by the time the war ended. His daughter Elizabeth Ann was born in 1949 and son John Douglas in 1951. He was a Rover Scout and became a cub and scout leader. He was on the Kincardine Public School Board for 10 years, belonged to the Rotary Club, the Kinsmen, the Masonic Lodge and was president of the Chamber of Commerce for two years and received an award. In 1970 he was chairman of the Old Boy's and Girls Reunion Committee and won the award of Citizen of the Year. He cherished the silver tray that he was given to him with that inscription. The award was reported in the London Free Press. Ballots were received from as far away as Michigan and from across the province. It was the largest number of ballots at that time and 70 percent voted for him. His pride and joy was the cottage he built on Crab Cove near Red Bay. He bought the lakefront property in 1952 for $350 and in 1953 he and his neighbour Ed HAGEDORN put up the frame. He worked both at the Linklater Funeral Home and the Linklater Furniture Store. From 1966 to 1974 he owned and operated the funeral business by himself. In 1974 at age 57 he sold the Funeral business although he helped the new owner in the summers for 4-5 years afterwards. In 1974 he and Nora bought a place in Lakeland, Florida and started going there in the winters in 1975. Nora died on his birthday, October 1, 1988 after a 48-year marriage. He married Helen Emma HAYES (née COULSON) of Saint Thomas and Lakeland, Florida on July 22 1989. He and Helen lived at the cottage until September 2000 and in Owen Sound since then. They wintered in Lakeland until 1995 when Harold got cancer of the jaw. He survived that as he did a heart attack, strokes, blindness, and several operations. He was tenacious and had a tremendous will to live through all of these ailments until April 2008 when he accepted he was failing. Perhaps being a funeral director had given him this will to live because he had to live with death around him for so many years. Harold is survived by his beloved wife Helen, his daughter Elizabeth (Liza) and her husband James TROTTIER of Manila, Philippines, his son Douglas (Doug) of Red Bay, his grandchildren Jesse and Dane of Barrie, his brothers Ken (and Reita) of Kincardine, Bryce (and Alma) of Jarvis and Gordon (and Joan) of Toronto, and his former daughter-in-law, Dianne LINKLATER of Kincardine; his step-family Helen (and Bert) WRAY of Durham and their children Marla (and Lee) ZWOLMAN of Milton, Kevin and David WRAY; and to Marg NICHOL (and Gerald) of Brampton, Donald FINDLAY (and Teresa) of Campbell River, British Columbia and William FINDLAY (and Gazelle) of Winnipeg; as well as everyone's children and many grandchildren, great- and great-great-grandchildren. Heartfelt thanks and affection are extended to dearest Helen, Helen and Bert WRAY of Durham, Fern and Ken FYNN, Linda CRANDALL and Ab LIPSETT and Mary VAN TRIGT, all of Owen Sound for their loving care and assistance over the last years. A memorial service took place on Monday May 5 at the Kincardine cemetery and was followed by a reception at Knox Presbyterian Church. Arrangements were made by Harold's friend Tom WHITCROFT of the Thomas C. Whitcroft Funeral Home and Chapel in Sauble Beach. Donations can be made to the charity of your choice.

Teen killed when snowmobile hits auger
Ryan MORRISON of Millbank was riding on a friend's farm and went off a trail.
By Joe BELANGER and Jenni DUNNING, Sun Media, Fri., January 4, An 18-year-old Perth County snowmobiler is dead after he ran into a piece of farm equipment, in the region's third serious snowmobile crash and second fatality in two weeks.
Perth County Ontario Provincial Police warn parents and young people to take more care snowmobiling.
Ryan MORRISON of Millbank was riding at a friend's farm on Line 67 of Mornington Ward Wednesday about 8: 35 p.m. when he went off a trail and struck a grain auger.
He was taken by ambulance to Stratford General Hospital where he died of head injuries.
"Definitely, in two or three incidents, speed has been a factor, as it is in most snowmobile crashes," Ontario Provincial Police Const. Glen Childerley said yesterday.
"People have to learn that you don't have to go full bore to enjoy a snowmobile. You can lose control very quickly.
"You can't stay on the trails. The speed of snowmobiles is outrageous and, combined with their light weight, it doesn't make for easily travelling at high speeds," he said.
Childerley said age and inexperience are also factors that lead to trouble for snowmobilers, pointing to the death of a 15-year-old boy December 19.
In that crash, Mitchell District high school student Perry OSBORN of Monkton was heading home from school when his snowmobile went off a trail, crossed Perth Line 36 and travelled into the path of a transport truck.
On December 8, a 19-year-old snowmobiler crashed into a tree near Listowel and was dropped off at a motel by another snowmobiler, who asked the operator to call 911.
The victim was taken to London Health Sciences Centre in critical condition with several fractures and released about a week ago.
On December 17, a 17-year-old woman and a 20-year-old man were thrown from a snowmobile when they struck a car while going the wrong way on a road in Malahide Township.
In rural areas, snowmobiles are a common fixture on many farms and it's not unusual for young people to take their machines to school.
To drive a snowmobile, the driver must be at least 12, have a snowmobile licence and take a safe snowmobiling course, Childerley said.
"It's part of their life on a farm," he said. "But there are groomed trails in the area that are patrolled by snowmobile clubs and police and you don't often encounter problems on those trails."

JACOBSON, Caroline (née WATTY)
Omnivorous reader, traveller, social democrat, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, great-aunt. Born November 13, 1900, in Kirkwall, Scotland. Died December 25, 2007, of old age in Thunder Bay, aged 107
By Ken MORRISON, Jean▲ MORRISON and Clarence JACOBSON and Maxine LORENTSON, Page L8
The first of 13 children, Caroline moved to Canada in 1903 with parents Malcolm and Emily WATTY and her baby sister.
Thanks to Ontario's Free Grants and Homestead Act, the family took up land in Dorion, Ontario, a new settlement on the Canadian Pacific Railway line northeast of Thunder Bay.
Caroline thrived in this milieu. With only one year of formal education she taught herself to read. This she did avidly, later acquiring a vast library of books on biography, history, politics and geography.
At 18, she cut pulpwood for shipping to the mills. During a smallpox scare she moved at age 21 to Schreiber, Ontario, a Canadian Pacific Railway divisional and crew-change point, where she replaced quarantined cooks and cleaners at the Canadian Pacific Railway's Young Men's Christian Association.
Qualified for a railway pass after one year's employment, Caroline took the train across Canada whenever possible.
She indulged her love of travel until age 95, with flights to Europe and Cuba and automobile journeys to both coasts. She learned to drive at 68 - and took a car maintenance course before getting her licence.
After her marriage in 1938 to Alvin (Jake) JACOBSON, a railway conductor, Caroline continued working at the Y until her son Clarence was born.
The family moved to Port Arthur in the early 1940s, and Caroline gave birth to her second son, Douglas, who predeceased her in 1996. Jake died of Lou Gehrig's disease in 1962.
Caroline was in on the planning of Castlegreen, one of Canada's earliest housing co-operatives, in Thunder Bay. Never missing a meeting or a chance to volunteer, she lived there from its opening in the 1970s with, later, daily attention from her son Clarence, until going into a nursing home at age l03.
She insisted that her daily "porridge" of oatmeal, brewer's yeast, wheat germ, blackstrap molasses and a whole bulb of garlic contributed to her longevity and to her freedom from arthritis, allergies, headaches and deafness.
But the main secret toher long life, she confessed, was that she never worried about anything.
Caroline had a passion for politics. She voted when first eligible and in every election thereafter. She was a life member of the Co-Operative Commonwealth Federation/New Democratic Party, attended conventions and worked in campaigns until she was 90.
Caroline once summed up her long life this way: "When I was young I admired clever people. Now that I am old I admire kind people."
Always smiling in spite of adversity, Caroline was a kind, calm person.
Ken and Jean MORRISON are Caroline's Friends, Clarence JACOBSON is her son and Maxine LORENTSON is her niece.

On Monday June 2, 2008 at Saint Michael's Hospital in Toronto. Wife of the late Paul Joseph MORRISON (1972,) loving mother who will be dearly missed by her sons Ross (Gayle), Paul (Janet), Claude (Victor), her daughter Marg Anne, her grandchildren Drew and Brendan, and last but not least Snoozer, her faithful canine companion. She was in the warm embrace of her family when the moment came to leave, peacefully and comfortably.

Marguerite graduated from Saint Michael's nursing program and was on the staff there for over thirty years, specializing in orthopaedics.

A former President of the Sinawik Club of Toronto (Kiwanis), Marguerite was also a talented artist, and an avid bowler and curler at the Granite Club for many years, and she had a smile that could light up a room. But her primary focus was her children. She was our mother first, last and always. Special thanks to Lisa Nonan for her constant support, and to the caring and sensitive staff at Saint Michael's Hospital. Friends may visit at Rosar-Morrison Funeral Home, 467 Sherbourne St. (south of Wellesley) in Toronto on Thursday, June 5th, from 6-8 p.m. A celebration of her life will be held in the chapel of the funeral home on Friday, June 6th at 11: 00 a.m. Interment to follow at Mount Hope Cemetery.
