(Sunday December 29th, 1918-Sunday April 6th, 2008)
In her 89th year, suddenly, after a brief stay in hospital, from
lung disease. Clementine leaves behind her husband Walter, daughter
Johanni and son Robert. Clementine immigrated to Canada with
her parents from Mannheim, Germany, shortly before World War
2. She adjusted to a new way of life, set to work in several
capacities, married, and was instrumental in helping her husband
to build up his new business (W. Carsen Co). She later worked
as a very active member of the Volunteer Committee of the Art
Rental Department of the Art Gallery of Ontario, of which she
was a Founder Member. But it was her discovery of yoga which
completely altered her life. She became a remarkable teacher,
and her gentleness combined with her intuition and generosity
made her a much loved teacher, first in Toronto, then at the
Prem Anandham Ashram in Beaverton, Ontario and in more recent
years in Naples, Florida, where her classes were always full
to overflowing. She donated the proceeds of her teaching to charity,
which was always an important part of her life. Clementine was
a devoted wife and mother, and a loving, concerned friend. She
had a wonderful sense of humour, boundless curiosity and genuine
interest in others. She will be greatly missed by everyone that
she met. Her family is grateful to her many Friends who gave
her so much love and support in recent years and especially during
the 3 weeks she spent in hospital. Particular thanks go to Doctor Weaver
and the medical and nursing staff at the Physicians Regional
Medical
Centre in Naples, Florida, and also to Doctor Michael
BENTLEY-

helping her through her brief illness. Memorial services will
be held at a later date in Toronto, Ontario; Naples, Florida

Beauty with 'a fabulous, floating walk' was greatest Canadian
model of her time
Discovered selling perfume at Eaton's in Toronto, she came to
dominate her profession. She later opened an academy for aspiring
models and a finishing school for young girls
By Gay ABBATE,
Page
S11
Toronto -- Dorothy
FLEMING/FLEMMING instructed generations of Canadian
girls how to be young ladies, and taught aspiring models how
to strut their stuff.
She instructed youngsters in the social graces and manners they
would need to succeed socially: how to walk in high heels, how
to get in and out of a car gracefully, how to correctly hold
a knife and fork and the appropriate use of makeup. She trained
would-be models on the best runway walks to showcase the fashions
they would wear professionally. Many of her clients were older,
frustrated housewives for whom she helped reinforce their self-esteem.
Ms. FLEMING/FLEMMING was eminently qualified for all these tasks. She
was, after all, the most famous Canadian model of her generation
and the owner of this country's first professional modelling
school.
Many years after she retired from modelling, she was still considered
an "idol." One journalist described her as "one model who everybody
wanted to emulate." Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING, she wrote, "had it all: a dazzling
smile, the ability to sell clothes and a fabulous, floating walk."
That walk was so memorable that many who saw her on the runway
still remember it. "When I think of Dorothy, I remember the way
she walked," said long-time friend Alix Larry, a former model
herself. "She was an outstanding model and had an incredible
walk."
Bev Fardell, a former student of Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING as well as a close
friend, also remembers learning the floating walk because a proper
walk was what she instilled in all her students. "The walk was
not a wiggle, because you were not supposed to wiggle your bum,"
said Ms. Fardell, a model for 24 years.
As a top model, Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING hobnobbed with the rich and famous.
She flew across the country to assignments in the Eaton's department
store plane and counted among her Friends such actors as Tyrone
Power and Victor Mature. Actor-comedian Danny Kaye was a special
friend. The two were introduced one summer when he was performing
at the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto and she was in
a fashion show there. A long Friendship ensued. "When he came
to perform in Toronto, it was my job to pick him up at the stage
door and bring him home to the family," said her son, Paul
FLEMING/FLEMMING.
Raised in Toronto, she was one of two children of Douglas
FLEMING/FLEMMING,
a lifelong employee city employee, and his wife Agnes, a homemaker.
The FLEMINGs lived on Glengrove Avenue in North York and money
was tight. As a child, Dorothy and her brother, Douglas, would
pick peas at local farms to earn extra money. After leaving Vaughan
Road Collegiate in York, then a separate borough west of Toronto,
she went to work at the Eaton's department store. It was there,
while selling perfume, that she was discovered.
The tall, slim, beautiful, young saleswoman caught the eye of
someone in the store's fashion department and Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING soon
found herself modelling clothes and jewellery for a living. She
was in such demand that even Eaton's competitor, Simpson's, also
hired her to model their fashions. In 1949, she opened a modelling
school in her Glengrove family home, later moving to a large
house in Toronto's Forest Hill neighbourhood. The second location
boasted a runway, makeup room and administrative offices. She
also opened a hair salon at Yonge Street and St. Clair, but left
the trimming and snipping to others.
In her 20s, Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING had met and married Donald
STEISS, an
insurance executive. The marriage soon ended, but together they
had a son, Paul, whom she raised as a single mother. She never
remarried, telling Friends that she was having too good a time
as a single woman. But she almost did tie the knot again. Many
years after her divorce, she accepted a proposal from businessman
Donald SPRINGER, but he died of a heart attack before their wedding
day.
In the meantime, she got down to business. The Dorothy Fleming
Modelling School and Agency was also a finishing school where
girls from private schools were sent to brush up on their social
graces. There was always a waiting list. Sarah Band, who took
classes there at 15, recalls learning how to wear makeup and
how to walk in heels. She said the girls wished to learn from
Ms. FLEMING/FLEMMING because she was a "brilliant teacher" whose critique
was always delivered with kindness.
Ms.
Larry was 17 the first time she saw Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING, although
their Friendship began decades later. At the time, Ms. Larry
was working at Simpson's and Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING was demonstrating makeup
at Woolworth's department store. "She was the most beautiful
vision that anyone could ever have seen," Ms. Larry said. "She
was wearing a white uniform. The girls and I would run across
the road during our coffee breaks just to look at her, she was
so stunningly beautiful."
Perhaps because of her own failed marriage, Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING earnestly
believed that it was impossible for a woman to succeed at both
a career and at being a homemaker. "A woman's greatest role is
making a home, not a house," she once told a reporter writing
an article about the role of the modern, seventies woman. "The
executive who has a real house, not just the home, can truly
say he is a successful man."
After seeing many executive wives in her school, Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING
concluded that a woman's road in self-improvement began not with
new clothes but in the head. "Life can be so great if you think
properly," she said in the article, urging women not to fall
into a "housewife rut."
The answer, she said, lay in education. "The best thing we can
do for a woman is to get her to change her thinking. She needs
something other than her own problems to discuss with her husband
when he comes home from work. When you think of yourself all
the time, you're dead. The answer usually is that the woman needs
to do things."
Her solution? "Set aside an idea drawer and fill it with things
outside the home you want to do, courses you want to take, movies
you want to go see - anything really."
In the mid-seventies, Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING decided one day that she had
had enough. She closed her school and sold the hair salon. By
then, her son had purchased a farm in Lindsay, Ontario, where
her own mother was already living, so she followed him. In retirement,
she indulged in three of her passions: painting, charitable work
and travelling. She took up painting watercolours, mainly still
life, and proved to be an excellent artist, said her son. Several
of her works adorn the walls of his Lindsay home.
Ms. FLEMING/FLEMMING was known for her generosity to those in need. One
year she made donations to 27 different groups, from animal-rights
organizations to Greenpeace. She was particularly interested
in organizations dealing with children and she sponsored countless
youngsters all over the world.
She became deeply interested in the problems of Canada's native
people after a conversation with then-Prime Minister Brian Mulroney
and his wife, Mila. Then in her 70s, Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING travelled to
Labrador to see first-hand what the people there might most need.
"Later, she spent months leaving the house with a card table
under her arm and going to shopping malls where she set up the
table, raised money and distributed literature about the plight
of natives," her son said.
Ms. FLEMING/FLEMMING beat two bouts of ovarian cancer during her life
and remained very fit until the end. Exercise, followed by a
portion of grapefruit, was a morning routine that Ms.
FLEMING/FLEMMING
devoutly followed.
Dorothy FLEMING/FLEMMING was born August 14, 1917, in Toronto, Ontario
She died May 25, 2008, of bronchial pneumonia at Mr. Sinai Hospital
in Toronto. She was 90. She is survived by her son, Paul
FLEMING/FLEMMING.
