HOTSON,
Janet
Clare (née
McLENNAN)
(October 12, 1917-June 21, 2008)
Of Kelowna, B.C.
Born in Paisley, Ontario, Clare enjoyed a full and happy life
growing up with her Scottish parents Thomas and Elizabeth
McLENNAN
and five siblings Al, Tom, Jean, Bob and Roderick, all predeceased.
She remained closely tied throughout her long life to her family
and strong Scottish roots. "If it's not Scottish, it's crap"
was her guiding mantra and she proudly fulfilled all of the Scottish
stereotypes to the best of her ability! Clare trained as a registered
nurse at Toronto Western and was a devoted caregiver to her family
and others throughout her career. She has maintained many nursing
Friends through the years. She told many stories of the hard
work, shenanigans and good times she and her nursing Friends
shared. Her very special friend Jo Richardson remained her friend,
neighbor and devoted caregiver to Clare in her last days of life.
Thank you Jo. Clare married Herbert
HOTSON from Langholm, Scotland
(predeceased). They were a traditional couple and lived a long,
respectful and devoted married life together. Clare and Herbert
raised one son, Thomas Robert
HOTSON, whom they both cherished
and doted on. Clare will be profoundly missed by Rob, his wife
Marilyn McCORD and their two children Kendra and Mairead
HOTSON.
Clare has many surviving extended relatives and Friends who will
miss her feisty, spunky, stubborn and independent approach to
life. Her sisters-in-law Steffie
McLENNAN and Beulah
McLENNAN
will miss her as their last connection to their husbands, Clare's
brothers. Cathy Lindquist and her family Doug, Erin and Scott
spent many good times with Clare and Herb at their home in Kelowna
helping Clare with her home and garden and fruit trees each summer.
Clare has been a model to all of us who knew her, of strong morals,
values and character. We will miss her greatly and cherish the
memories we have of her. "She finally let go of her purse, Lucille!"
Many thanks to all of those who have been of recent and past
support to us, specifically Margaret, her Home Instead caregiver,
Dick and Doreen Cinnamon, Marge Prouse, Joan Richard, Shelly
and Donna and Tim Minor and the Cottonwoods nursing staff. A Graveside
Service will be held on Friday, July 25th at 10: 30 a.m. Kelowna
Memorial Park Cemetery followed by a celebration of Clares' life
at 630 Dougall Road South, Kelowna. Flowers are declined with
thanks. Condolences may be mailed to Robert
HOTSON,
Box 4, Watson

in Clare's name to Cottonwoods Palliative Care, Kelowna, B.C.

A True Gentleman! With great sadness to many, Lorne Aldon

Katherine and Rosannagh
MacLENNAN and his dear friend, Lee

Lorne graduated from
the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Toronto in 1940
where he was the leading member of the University of Toronto
Gymnastics Team. As the Canadian All Round Gymnastics (Werry
Cup) Champion, he earned a spot on the 1940 Canadian Olympic
Team which was cancelled with World War 2. (He was thrilled to
watch his granddaughter, Rosannagh, earn her berth for the Beijing
2008 Olympics for Trampoline.) As War broke out, his thesis on
fuel injection was sent to Massachusetts Institute of Technology
where he was to do his Masters but as a mechanical engineer,
he was positioned in Guelph at Federal Wire. In Guelph, he became
a Commanding Officer in the Royal Canadian Sea Cadets Corps Ajax
where he prepared many men for positions in the navy and was
still involved until he was 80. He resided in Guelph in the home
he built on Forest Street for 65 years. During his retirement
years, he summered in Muskoka and wintered in Venice, Florida.
He will always be remembered for his engineering projects, his
outward focus on Friends, his wise counsel and active lifestyle.
He was the oldest driver featured in the video at the Grace and
Speed Museum, Gravenhurst, where he was photographed doing what
he loved most. Friends may call at the Turner and Porter Butler
Chapel, 4933 Dundas St. W., Etobicoke (between Kipling and Islington

Alma (née
CARSON)
Frances Alma
STEWARD/STEWART/STUART, beloved wife of the late Neil
STEWARD/STEWART/STUART,
passed away peacefully on January 24, 2008 at Extendicare Halton
Hills, in her 99th year. Frances was born on December 6, 1909 to
Walter and Minnie
(MacLEOD)
CARSON on the family homestead just
outside of Dundalk on the Backline, Proton. On September 13,
1930 she was married to Neil Glenford
STEWARD/STEWART/STUART of Shrigley.
Neil and Frances lived on the Stewart family farm from the time
of their marriage until 1944, at which time they purchased the
nearby farm of Robert
BAILEY where they remained until 1969 when
they moved to Dundalk in retirement. Neil and Frances worked
side-by-side and were well respected farmers in the area.
During that period, Frances and Neil were active participants
in the Agricultural Society in Dundalk and together they received
an award that acknowledged their contribution. In 2000 Frances
received a 30 year certificate for her volunteer service in the
community.
Frances was also an active member of the Maple Valley Women's
Missionary Society and in 1969 she received a life time achievement
certificate and pin. Members of the Women's Missionary Society
remained in contact with Frances throughout the remainder of
her life.
Frances loved Dundalk and was a well-known and well-loved contributor
to the people of the town. Her delicious cooking and her generous
nature made it common place for those who were unwell to receive
a full chicken dinner for the family or her very delicious date
squares or pie.
Frances and Neil had celebrated their sixty-sixth wedding anniversary
just prior to Neil's passing, December 31, 1996.
Frances is survived by grand_son, Donald
BERRY of Edmonton and
Linda BERRY of Georgetown, by great-grandchildren, Dawn and Andrew
of Edmonton and
by Melissa, Rhonda, Janice and Nadine, all of
Alberta, and by a number of great-great-grandchildren also living
in Alberta. Frances was predeceased by daughter, Helen
DELORES
in 1987 and by grand_son, Neil
BERRY and brothers Ivan and William
CARSON and sisters-in-law Edna and Mary
CARSON.
In May 2003 after a period of ill health, Frances moved to Extendicare
in Georgetown, where she became a much loved resident and she
received constant care and loving attention of nursing/care-giving
staff. Upon arrival she was reconnected with her childhood nickname
of 'Frankie'. Staff spoke often of her great character and nature
and of her desire to continue to do things for herself, which
she continued to do until the final week of her life. While Frances
moved to Extendicare almost five years ago, her heart remained
solidly in Dundalk and she always enjoyed her calls and visits
from family and Friends who offered some 'news' of her beloved
town.
The funeral was held on January 29, 2008 at the McMillan and Jack
Funeral
Home,
Dundalk. Long-time friend, Rev. Willis
HUNKING
was the officiating minister and was capability assisted by his
brother, Clarence's granddaughter, Denise; who also beautifully
sang three favorite hymns. Acting pallbearers were Jack, Bill

home to help Dean on the farm and sawmill and preparing many
meals for the hired men who helped in the fields and at the sawmill.
No one ever left the table hungry.
Phyllis and Dean had two children, a stillborn son in 1961 and
a daughter Judith Phyllis in 1965. Judy married Dan
WICKENS on
October 15, 1988 and lives close by. Phyllis enjoyed watching
her two grandchildren Katie and Lori growing up next door, taking
advantage of every opportunity to watch them in their activities.
She was indeed a "proud" Grandma.
Phyllis and Dean celebrated 44 years of marriage at the time
of Dean's passing in 2000. She was fortunate to live on the family
farm until her time of passing.
Baking, flowerbeds, visiting and chatting with family and Friends,
and the occasional bus trip, were some of the things that she
enjoyed and that helped to pass the time for Phyllis.
Phyllis was predeceased by her parents Marshall in 1987 and Katie
in 1989. Husband Dean (2000), sister Jean (1999) and brother-in-law
Joe YAGER (1998,) brother Charles (2007.)
A Celebration of Life was held at the McMillan and Jack Funeral
Home in Dundalk on January 9, 2008 with Pastor Heather
McCARREL
officiating. Daughter Judy gave the eulogy and niece Mariane
McLEOD played the organ and pallbearers were nephews Roger
GORDON,
Donald GORDON, Blair
GORDON, Robert
McLEOD, Alex
McLEOD and David
WRIGHT.
Flowerbearers were granddaughters Katie and Lori

NIXON,
Annie McPhail "Nan" (née
McLEAN)
Nan NIXON passed away peacefully at Errinrung Residence in Thornbury
on Monday May 26, 2008 at the age of 93. Born in Greenock, Scotland,
she was the daughter of John and Lilius (née
DELGARNO)
McLEAN.
At the age of 15 Nan immigrated to Canada with her parents and
siblings. Although Nan received a limited education and faced
many challenges in her earlier life, as was so often the case
in those years, she was able to fulfill her most important dreams,
those of raising her family and being a kind and loving mother,
grandmother and great-grandmother. She is remembered by her family
and Friends as a wise woman whose patience and forgiveness set
examples for all to follow. She loved her home and ensured that
it was always a welcoming environment for all and her homemaking
skills were passed as a legacy to her children. Her home was
always clean, the treadle sewing machine rarely resting as she
made and re-made clothing for her family and the results of her
knitting and quilting were cherished by all who received her
homemade gifts. Above all Nan loved to play with the grandchildren
sharing their laughter while enjoying checkers, dominoes, snakes
and ladders and many card games. She encouraged her family to
strive to succeed by endeavoring to do their best at whatever
task might be in front of them. She shared her spirit with the
gentle 'toughness' that was her inspiring strength of character.
Nan was predeceased by her husband Robert Henry
NIXON in 1956
when she was a woman of 41 years of age and she remained undaunted
in her dedication that her family should know the warmth and
security of home. She is remembered as a loving mother by her
daughters Dorothy
FROST of Thornbury, Isobel
LEVACQUE of Collingwood
and Debra Nixon
McLEOD of Nottawa and she was predeceased by
her son Bill
NIXON.
She is lovingly remembered as a dear mother-in-law
by her daughter-in-law Betty
(SANGSTER)
Nixon
VANDERLINDEN of
Clayhurst,
British
Columbia, and by her son-in-law Roger
McLEOD
of Nottawa. She will also be remembered by her brother Jim
McLEAN
of Parksville, British Columbia and by sisters-in-law May
McLEAN
and Joy McLEAN, both of Meaford. Nan was also predeceased by
sons-in-law Bill
FROST,
Ray
LEVACQUE and Dale
VANDERLINDEN and
by brothers and sisters John
McLEAN
(Isabelle,)
Jean
SMITH (Harvey,)
May MARTIN (Ray), David
McLEAN, Tom
McLEAN (Ethel), and Bill
McLEAN.
Nan will be most affectionately remembered as the devoted
matriarch of her family including her seven grandchildren and
thirteen great-grandchildren and her many nieces and nephews
and their families. As Nan desired, a family service of committal
and interment of her cremated remains, officiated by Reverend
Dr. Brian GOODINGS of Grace United Church, was conducted at Thornbury-Clarksburg
Union Cemetery on Friday May 30 where Nan's ashes were interred
with her late husband. If so desired, and in memory of Nan, memorial
donations to Thameswood Lodge, a residence for cancer patients
in London, Ontario, would be appreciated and may be made through
the Ferguson Funeral Home, The Valley Chapel, in Thornbury to
whom arrangements have been entrusted.

and following a brief stint working for the Australian Consulate
in Washington, D.C. during the war, she and Bruce settled in
London, Ontario where they raised their family until moving to
Vernon in the late 1980's. Phyllis was an avid reader of fine
literature, but was comforted most through regular reading and
devotion of the scriptures. In her quiet moments, Phyllis entertained
herself and others by playing all time popular music of the 40s
and 50s on her piano. Phyllis had a quick wit and was a formidable
and hilarious player of Scrabble. She was a devoted wife and
mother to the very day of her passing. We are all very thankful
to have been blessed by her sense of care and love. The family
wish to extend their heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the
caring staff of Vernon Jubilee Hospital and to the excellent
care provided by her physician, Doctor David Naismith. Friends and

of the many Stapleton/Preston relatives spread throughout the
world. As corporate lawyer (having graduated from Osgoode Hall
in 1950), Director of Personnel and chief labour contract negotiator
for General Motors of Canada over a 29 year career, A.G. was
the youngest director in the company's history. His was the voice
of reason - the calm amidst many a storm during one of the most
challenging eras in the United Auto Workers/General Motors contract
evolution. Many said that Arn's unique ability to compartmentalize
complicated concepts won over both union foes and management
associates alike. He was able to maintain composure by utilizing
a wonderful sense of humour centered around a quick wit and well
placed one-liners. A man of few words, when he spoke, people
listened. An English scholar (Words Are Important!), a history
and travel buff, a Wagnerian connoisseur, a lover of opera and
Shakespeare and one heck of a bridge and chess player, Arn was
a 50+ year subscriber to the Stratford Festival (his second most
favorite place after the family cottage at Inverhuron Beach).
Always willing to give his ample talents to worthy causes, Arn
served as Chairman and long time director of the Oshawa General
Hospital, board member of both St. Andrew's Church in Oshawa
and First-St. Andrew's United Church in London, and was a member
in standing of the Law Society of Canada. In the words of his
beloved Shakespeare -"to thine own self be true". A celebration
of Arn's life will be held at First-St. Andrew's United Church,

McLEOD,
Thomas
Hector MacDonald "Tommy"
Thomas McLEOD was born in Weyburn, Saskatchewan in August 1918.
He was an only child. He took his schooling in Weyburn, graduating
from Weyburn Collegiate with honours. It was in Weyburn that
Tommy met T.C. Douglas, the young Baptist minister who would
play such an important role in his life. During the Depression,
Douglas organized a boys' group which devoted its time to sports
and boxing, and to debating and drama. Douglas was a graduate
of Brandon College, and persuaded several of his 'boys' to attend
that venerable institution. There Tommy received a B.A. with
distinction. After a Masters degree from Indiana University,
he was urged by President Evans to come back to Brandon to teach
Economics, where he stayed for three years and also met his beloved
wife Beryl.
In 1944, when T.C. Douglas led the Co-Operative Commonwealth
Federation party to a landslide election victory in Saskatchewan,
Premier Douglas asked Tommy to come and work for the new government.
Tommy said that he would have to consult with the College; Douglas
breezily replied that he had already sent his resignation to
the President. Thus began an exciting period of his life, beginning
as advisor to the premier and general troubleshooter, taking
on assignments as Secretary of Health Services Planning, Secretary
of the Economic Planning Board, Chair of the new Budget Bureau,
and ending as Deputy Provincial Treasurer. In between jobs, he
earned two degrees from Harvard University, a Masters in Public
Administration and a PhD in Economics.
When University of Saskatchewan President W.P. Thompson called
in 1952, offering the position of Dean of the College of Commerce,
Tommy decided to begin a new challenge. He enjoyed the Saskatoon
experience immensely. During this period he also served on several
boards and commissions, chairing the Saskatchewan Commission
on Taxation.
In 1964 Tommy returned to Regina as Dean of Arts and Vice Principal
at the new university. In 1971, the Canadian International Development
Agency offered a broader mandate, where Tommy joined the senior
ranks of Canadian International Development Agency travellers,
attempting to sort out administrative problems in several countries,
including Turkey, Iran, Nigeria, and Botswana. So the family
moved to Ottawa, where they stayed for 26 years. Tommy moved
from Canadian International Development Agency to the Federal
Management Institute, acted as administrator of the Anti-Inflation
Board, and held other management positions. Among other honours,
he was especially pleased to be awarded the Vanier Medal from
the Institute of Public Administration in 1971 and the Order
of Canada in 2003. He co-wrote a popular biography of T.C. Douglas
with his son Ian; Tommy Douglas, Road to Jerusalem was published
in 1987.
In 1997 Tommy moved to Victoria, loving the gardens and life
style. He died there peacefully on New Years' Day, 2008. He leaves
behind his loving wife and companion of over 62 years, Beryl,
children Beth
BILSON, Ellen (John
HEANEY), Ian (Vicki
McLEOD),
Brian (Lorraine
THOMAS,) and Morna (David
FIRMAN,) grandchildren
Max BILSON
(Jane
CHAPCO,) Kate
BILSON (Paul
BEKE,) Martin and
Brendan HEANEY, Adrienne and Kelly Firman
McLEOD, and Tom and
Will McLEOD.
His family and many Friends will remember his wit
and wisdom, his sincere modesty, his devotion to family, and
pride in his children's many accomplishments, his unfailing good
humour, his rapport with students, his negotiating and administrative
skills, his ability to relate to almost everybody, and his keen
interest in music, books, cooking and gardening. Indicative of
his wide ranging tastes was that his favourite poets were Robert
Burns and Rumi.
(Epitaph)
Know thou, O stranger to the fame
Of this much loved, much honoured name
(For none that knew him need be told)
A warmer heart death ne'er made cold.
Robert Burns
A memorial service will be arranged at a later date. In lieu
of flowers, contributions to the Tommy and Beryl McLeod scholarships
at Brandon University, 18th St. Brandon, Manitoba, or donations
to United Nations Children's Fund or the Stephen Lewis Foundation
would be appreciated.

Unexpectedly passed away on January 12, 2008 in Courtenay, British
Columbia, beloved mother of Lyn, Jack and Janet and grandmother
of Carly, Cassandra, Matthew, Neil and Renita. Nancy was born
on October 12, 1924 in Winnipeg, the daughter of Frank and Jean
MATHERS (née
BELL) and the granddaughter of Thomas
MATHERS,
Chief
Justice of Manitoba. Nancy attended Kelvin High School and went
on to medical school at the University of Manitoba from which
she graduated in 1948. In 1949, she married Doctor John P.
GEMMELL,
who went on to have a distinguished career both as a Professor
in the Department of Medicine at the University of Manitoba and
as head of the Department and Physician-in-Chief at the Winnipeg
General Hospital. Together they had three children. Nancy was
admitted to the College of Physicians and Surgeons in 1950 but
in the early years devoted most of her time to raising her young
family. In the 1960s she returned to the practice of medicine
and eventually began working as a school doctor in Winnipeg's
inner city schools, including R.B. Russell Vocational School,
providing critically needed primary healthcare to the many students
who came to her office over the years. It was a cause to which
she devoted her considerable talents and caring heart. In 1979
she and John separated and subsequently divorced. In 1997, now
retired, Nancy moved from Winnipeg to Courtenay on Vancouver
Island, where her daughter Janet and her husband Jim lived with
their two children. She will always be remembered as a loving
mother, a skilled physician, an avid bridge-player and an independent
thinker who marched to her own drumbeat. She was a generous soul
who provided help to others in need. Nancy was predeceased by
her former husband John and by her two brothers Tom and Bill.
She is survived by her children, Lyn, Jack and Janet, and their
spouses, Peter
HOGAN,
Katherine
McLEOD and Jim
PALMER, her grandchildren,
Carly, Cassandra, Matthew, Neil and Renita, her sister-in-law,
Hélène MATHERS, and her nieces and nephews, Mimi, Guy, Heather,
Frank, Chris and Paul
MATHERS.
She will be missed by all of them.
A service to celebrate her life will take place on Saturday,
February 2 from 2 to 5 p.m. in the Sandpiper Room at the Kingfisher
Resort, 4330 Island Highway South, Courtenay, British Columbia

CHASTON,
John
Greer
(March 5, 1915-February 28, 2008)
Passed away peacefully, surrounded by the love of his family,
at Lions Gate Hospital, North Vancouver, British Columbia in
his 93rd year, after a brief illness. Predeceased by his parents,
Leon Christopher
CHASTON and Bessie
GREER/GRIER of Calgary, and by
his beloved younger brother Len, Royal Canadian Air Force, lost
over Germany in 1942. He leaves to mourn his loving wife Helen,
children Liz
CHASTON,
Christy
McLEOD, Len
CHASTON, and Martha
LUTES
(Ralph,)
Helen's children, Peter
CHAUVIN (Shelagh) and
Cindy FLEMING/FLEMMING, former wife
Jay
JESSIMAN, and 11 grandchildren.
Born and raised in Calgary, John went to work after high school
for the Alberta Pacific Grain Co., and then assisted his father
in his grain brokerage business. His career began when, articled
to Norman Hindsley, C.A., he completed a five year Queen's University
course in four years and in 1939 wrote the first Uniform Final
Exam administered by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Alberta. He won the Province of Alberta prize for highest standing.
He worked following for the Osoyoos Mines Co. Ltd., then Peat,
Marwick, Mitchell Co. in Portland, Oregon. The call to war brought
him back to positions in Canada with the Allied War Supply Corporation
in Montreal and the Canadian Pacific Railway. Enlisting in the
army in 1942, John's military service took him to stations from
Montreal, through Ontario, to Prince Rupert, British Columbia
and finally to Vancouver. In 1946 he joined Vancouver based Pemberton
Securities Ltd. as controller. In 1952 he founded the company's
corporate finance department which he headed until 1971 when
he was appointed President and Chief Executive Officer. In the
following years he guided the company through a difficult time
in the North American economy and displayed unwavering confidence
in both Pemberton Securities and the capital markets as a whole.
In 1975 he was elected Chairman of the Board and was Honourary
Chairman when Pemberton was acquired by Dominion Securities in
1989. Not one to retire, John continued an active role in the
investment business with Capital West Partners, where he maintained
a presence until his final days. John's devotion to the investment
business in Western Canada was matched by his passion for the
game of golf. He was introduced to the sport on a course made
by his father, in the vacant prairie fields adjacent to their
home in Calgary. He then played at the Calgary Municipal Course,
the Bowness Golf Club, and the Calgary Golf and Country Club.
In 1931 he won the Alberta Junior Championship. John joined Shaughnessy
Golf and Country Club in 1945 and was Club Champion 1947, 49,
50, 51. In 1953, deciding to permanently establish his home in
West Vancouver, he joined Capilano Golf and Country Club. John's
devotion to Capilano was expressed not only in his election to
President, 1964, but in countless hours of practice and play
and solicited and unsolicited advice to members and management
with respect to all aspects of the game, the club, and the course
itself. Those acquainted with John know that he had a comprehensive
knowledge of golf's history, its mechanics, and its evolution.
Whether inspired by the immortal Bobby Jones or the revolutionary
Tiger Woods, his enduring goal remained the perfect swing. In
his latter years he routinely 'shot his age', on one occasion
recording a gross 76 at the age of 84. Of many personal highlights
in the pursuit of his sport, John took great pride in marshalling
three British Opens and in being a member of the Royal and Ancient
Golf Club of St. Andrews. His memory will be invoked annually
at Capilano Golf and Country Club with the awarding of the Chaston
Trophy and the Wt. Officer Lionel G. Chaston Royal Canadian Air
Force Memorial Cup. It would be remiss to omit that in addition
to his primary interests in business and in golf, John was well
known for his love of cars. In a number of trades that roughly
equaled his final age, he enjoyed ownership of several very special
high performance vehicles. His favourite remains known only to
him. He will be greatly missed by family, by Friends, and by
all who appreciated his considerable achievements, keen sense
of fair play, rigorous self discipline, and his devotion to the
principle 'to play the ball as it lies'. The family would like
to thank Doctor Nancy Crossen, Jim Cormack, M.S.W., and the palliative
care team at Lions Gate Hospital for their compassionate care
on 7 West. Memorial Service to be held on Tuesday, March 18,
2008, 3 p.m. at St. Stephen's Anglican Church, 885 22nd Street,
West Vancouver. Donations may be made in John's memory to the
Lions Gate Hospital Foundation, North Shore Hospice, 231 East
15th Street, North Vancouver, British Columbia, V7L 2L7 www.lghfoundation.com

Born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1913, and emigrated in 1926 from
Kirkcudbright, Scotland to Hamilton, Ontario.
son of Jessie and
Rev. William
BARCLAY, D.D. (past Moderator of the Presbyterian
Church of Canada). Also predeceased by his beloved wife Helen
Eileen (née

life-partner Valerie, and his dear friend May

his M.Sc. in Communications and Physics at Cornell U. His early
research career as a design engineer focused on radio tube, radar,
theatre audio, and broadcast transmitters with Canadian Westinghouse,
Northern Electric, Research Enterprises, and Rogers Radio Tubes.
This was followed by a distinguished 24-year career with Philips
Electronic Industries (1947-1971) culminating as General Manager
of the Professional Equipment Division, and by later terms as
General Manager with Ryerson Applied Research, and
as Manager
Electrical Engineering for Canada Post in Ottawa. All of these
were significant professional achievements in his time, of which
he was quietly proud.
Golf was his outside passion throughout his life, and he was
exceptionally talented at it. He played until his knees finally
quit on him, not that long ago.
All who knew Dad knew him as an uncommonly gentle, patient and
modest soul: caring and kind with Friends and colleagues. He
remained a gentleman and a gentle man to the end; everyone looked
up to him. Special thanks to his many recent Friends and the
dedicated staff at St. Hilda's Towers, Toronto, for whom he cared
affectionately. Particular condolence and gratitude to his close
friend May Macleod, who brought him so much infectious happiness
in his later years. Family and close Friends will gather informally.
