- Sir Charles Tupper. He signed up for World War 2 in 1939 and
was shipped overseas to England where he was promoted to Sandhurst

home and settled in London, Ontario where he completed his Batchelor's
Degree at the University of Western Ontario. He went on to a
long and successful career with Wyeth Canada, where he set records
for sales in Southwestern Ontario. His friendly nature and humour
brought him many life long Friends and acquaintances throughout
the Southwestern Ontario region. In the early fifties, Don and
Jill settled in Owen Sound, where they raised their 3 children.
He was proud of his long relationship with the Grey and Simcoe
Foresters, Knox United Church, and the infamous Friday Night

PANOS,
Helen
Adele
Edwards (née
BAZOS)
(April 17th 1929-January 9th, 2008)
Passed away peacefully after a long illness in Toronto on a warm
January afternoon with her children at her side. Helen was a
loving and generous mother who always wanted the best for her
three children, Ellen Jane, George and Frank. Mother-in-law to
Kathleen and Tracy and grandmother to Alexandra and Frankie.
Predeceased by her husband George P.
PANOS.
Daughter of the late
Frank and Matilda
BAZOS.
Sister to Robert
BAZOS, Constance
POTTOW
and the late James
BAZOS.
Thank you to everyone who cared for
Mom, especially her friend Cheryl. A graduate from Bishop Strachan
School and the University of Toronto, School of Nursing. Mom
worked at the Toronto General Hospital after graduation. She
spent the next few years travelling the world with her mother.
One of Mom's great loves was travelling, especially spending
time in London, England. In the early sixties Mom met the love
of her life George, from Montreal, who would turn out to be her
husband after a lengthy courtship. From Montreal they decided
to move to Toronto. She was a terrific wife and a wonderful mother
who always wanted the best for her family. Mom was determined
to provide everything possible for her family's success and happiness.
Helen was active in the Anglican Church and had an incredible
business savvy and passion for the Stock Market. She enjoyed
teaching her children tennis and skiing. Summers were filled
with Ocean breezes on Cape Cod, while winters were spent on the
snowy slopes of St. Sauveur in Quebec. Mom was the backbone of
the family always making the correct decisions when necessary.
In fact, her actions earned her the title 'Colonel' within the
family. 'Mom we love you always and we will miss you dearly'.
The family will receive Friends at the Humphrey Funeral Home -
A.W. Miles Chapel, 1403 Bayview Avenue (south of Eglinton Avenue
East), from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. on Sunday, January 13th. Funeral
service will be held in Grace Church on-the Hill, 300 Lonsdale
Road, Toronto on Monday, January 14th at 11 o'clock. Interment
at Mount Pleasant Cemetery.
