picking by canoe in the Georgian Bay. She was fiercely loyal
and supportive to those she loved, and always sided with the
'underdog'. Edie's family is deeply grateful to the Meighen Manor

(February 6, 1961-February 22, 2007)
It seems like eternity that you have been taken away from this
world; a world filled with challenges that were meant to be handled
together as husband and wife but are now challenges for one.
There isn't a day or an event that goes by where I don't speak
or think of you - whether it be with my family or our closest
Friends. You have taught and enriched my life and made me aware
how precious life can be.
When family and Friends speak of you, tears are silently shed
but are masked with smiles and laughter. Only you knew how to
read through my visage and know that my life will never be the
same without you.
Promises were made to move forward when this day comes but those
words were easier said than done. I know with every step I take
through life you will be here with me - always. My love for you
will never stop as long as I live.
In loving memory of his wife, Judy.

SPELLER,
Doctor
Stuart (1926-2008)
It is with heartfelt sadness that we announce the passing of
Dr. Stuart
SPELLER - family physician, devoted father and husband,
amateur radio operator, musician, woodworker, machinist, motorcycle
rider and philanthropist. Stuart died peacefully at Fenelon Court
in the morning of June 20, 2008, in his 83rd year. Stuart was
predeceased by his wife, Muriel, who passed away in 1997. He
is survived by his six children: Donald, Katherine Hanbury (Bob),
David (Corrine), Lynda
ARMSTRONG, Patricia
ARMSTRONG (Brad),
and Kenneth. He was also predeceased by his two daughters Gladys
and Cheryl. He was the proud grandfather of six grandchildren:
Maretta (Mike) and Bethany
HANBURY,
Ryan and Kristen
SPELLER,
Cristian SPELLER and Kaitlyn
ARMSTRONG.
Stuart is predeceased
by his sister Enid and brothers Donald and Randal. Born in Toronto,
Stuart initially lived in several locations as he followed his
Salvation Army parents to various postings throughout Canada.
He received his medical degree at Dalhousie University in Nova
Scotia. After graduation, he practiced medicine for over five
years in Glace Bay and Guysborough before moving to Ontario where
he had practices in Bethany and Peterborough. His medical career
began long before Ontario Health Insurance Plan when doctors
still, made house calls at all hours, did much of their own lab
work, and sometimes delivered babies at home. By the time Stuart
hung up his shingle after more than 47 years as a family physician,
the practice of medicine included high-tech diagnostics, universal
health-care coverage, on-line refresher courses, and more-or-less
regular work hours. For him, medicine was a sacred calling of
the highest order. He loved his work with a passion; and for
that reason alone, he continued to practice long after his 'official'
retirement at age 65. Stuart was a generous provider to his family
and to numerous charitable organizations. An intellectual and
a perpetual student, he learned new skills in a wide range of
disciplines throughout his life. Stuart was a skilled woodworker,
competent metal machinist and also an electronics enthusiastparticularly
in the fields of computers and amateur radios. He also played
several brass instruments, including the trumpet in the Bethany
marching band, the tuba in a local Peterborough band, and the
baritone horn for several years in Salvation Army bands in Peterborough
and Fenelon Falls. In his 70's, Stuart even got his motorcycle
license. Stuart will be missed by all, particularly his family,
his Friends, and the thousands of patients he treated and comforted
throughout his long and wonderful life. Visitation will be held
at Comstock Funeral Home and Cremation Centre, 356 Rubidge Street,
Peterborough on Monday, June 23, 2008 from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. A memorial
service will be held in the chapel on Tuesday, June 24th at 2: 00 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, a donation to the Salvation Army or the Peterborough
Regional Health Centre Foundation would be appreciated.

In loving memory of my dear friend, Helen (Irene)
SPENCER, who
passed away June 10, 2007.
Cry No More
She has gone to glory
For which we can't be sorry.
Christ has healed all her pain
He's made her well and whole again.
So cry no tears of sadness
Instead rejoice with gladness.
You will see her once again
Even though you don't know when.
It's something to look forward to
Reuniting she with you.
Oh, the celebration when
We are together once again.
In Loving memory. I'll never forget you.

ROSS,
Gladys
21 August 1918 to 9 June 2008
Unexpectedly at Tillsonburg Hospital in her 90th year. Pre-deceased
by her husband Ormond. Loving mother of David (Katherine
SPENCER-
ROSS)
and devoted Grandma of Caroline and Andrew. Last survivor of
the five McCormicks of Harrow, Ontario - Ruth, Gladys, John,
Keith and Ralph. During her long and fulfilling life Gladys was
everyone's friend. Her cheerful and caring nature brightened
the day. A farm girl by birth she had a mischievous streak and
captured Ormond's heart (and earned her father's temporary wrath)
by slipping a pen pal note into a box of tomatoes destined for
Toronto. Waiting for him to return from the war she worked as
an executive secretary at General Motors, Windsor. They married
in 1945, moving initially to St. Hyacinthe, Quebec and later
to Halifax. Two years later, when he retired from the Navy, they
settled in Weston and built a house together while she worked
at Inglis. In 1956, David was adopted and life was never the
same. A devoted mother, Gladys immersed herself in home and school
activities and was renowned for hosting innumerable school Friends
for meals and snacks. An entrepreneurial bent lay just below
the surface and she established the Relique Boutique antique
shop at Jane and Buttonwood, later renaming it Early Years and
moving it to Jane and Bloor. Spending an extra hour with clients
over a cup of tea was indicative of her ability to listen to
others and drew in many new Friends and acquaintances. On Ormond's
retirement in 1979 and the subsequent closing of their shop in
1984 they decided to move to Tillsonburg where they lived out
their remaining years in their own home entertaining Friends
and family. Special thanks to Mike and Fran, as well as Donna,
Marion,
Diane,
Doctor
DOCKX and the Community Care Access Centre
and Canadian Red Cross caregivers, whose support and efforts
made staying at home possible. Gladys will be deeply missed by
all whose lives she touched. There will be a memorial service
at Ostrander's Funeral Home, 43 Bidwell Street, Tillsonburg (519) 842-5221
at 11: 00 a.m. Monday 16 June, 2008. Rev. Maurice
FRANCIS officiating.
Private interment of ashes at Colchester, Essex County, will
be at a future date. In lieu of flowers, donations (payable by
cheque) may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or the
Tillsonburg District Memorial Hospital would be appreciated.
