PENNEFATHER,
Sarah
Jane
Sarah Jane
PENNEFATHER was born in Montreal on March 7, 1951.
After a long and difficult battle with cancer, Sarah passed away
peacefully at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre on Tuesday, April 22,
2008, with her daughter Caitlin by her side, and surrounded by
loving family and loyal Friends. An astute business person and
accomplished entrepreneur, Sarah was, above all else, a loving,
dedicated and committed mother to her daughter Caitlin. More
than that, she was Caitlin's confidant and friend. Sarah lived
a full and active life. In her youth, she attended school in
Europe and journeyed fearlessly across the globe. Later, in the
late 1970's and early 1980's, she worked with Reader's Digest
and the Financial Post. She went on to found her own computer
consulting firm, becoming quickly absorbed by 'all things computer.'
After that, the latest piece of technology was seldom absent
from Sarah's side. Through all these accomplishments, Sarah was
supremely focused and determined, leaving her unmistakable mark
wherever she went. Most recently, Sarah became an avid golfer
whose passion for the game was coupled with a voracious appetite
for improvement. Even when she was unable to play, the din of
the golf channel was always in the background. In golf, as with
all things, Sarah jumped in feet first: immersing herself in
the game. Sarah's legacy will be simple and clear: a good friend,
an accomplished business person, a trusted and true traveler
along life's road. But most of all, Sarah will be remembered
through her daughter Caitlin. Sarah committed herself to Caitlin's
life, always letting her know - in no uncertain terms - how she
felt. Sarah supported Caitlin's decisions and advocated tirelessly
on her behalf. Sarah's Friends and family would like to extend
their warm thanks to Dr. Kevin
BEZANSON and
to Joan PALMER of
the Community Care Access Centre care team. A commemorative service
will be held at the Humphrey Funeral Home - A.W. Miles Chapel,
1403 Bayview Avenue (south of Eglinton Avenue East), on Tuesday,
May 6 at four o'clock. If desired, Caitlin asks that donations
be made to the Canadian Cancer Society. Condolences and memories
may be forwarded through www.humphreymiles.com.

RICH,
Bernard
Wakeham
Bernard was at home in Oakville in his bed by the window, his
loving wife Margaret and his family were by his side as he closed
his eyes for the last time. He died peacefully on June 12th 2008
at the age of 86. Bernard will be dearly missed by his wife of
62 years Margaret
(DAKERS) and his five daughters Bonnie
RICH
(Thomas CALVERT), Catherine
HANSEN (Kaj), Virginia
PEARCE (Richard),
Linda ESSIEMBRE
(Yvon) and Pamela
BEZIC (Val) and his ten grandchildren
Mark, Devon, Laurel, Emily, Peter, Eric, James, Rebecca, Joshua
and Jennifer. He was born in Beamsville, Ontario, but most of
his boyhood memories were of St. Catharines where he met Margaret
before going off to the war. During World War 2, Bernard served
as a flight instructor with the Royal Canadian Air Force before
being assigned to 31 Squadron Royal Air Force as a flight officer
and posted to Burma. Upon his return to Canada, he joined Trans
Canada Airlines and went on to a distinguished 37 year career.
He retired in 1981 as a highly respected 747 Captain with Air
Canada after logging 26,600 hours in the air. In his retirement
years when he wasn't filling his time maintaining his beloved
home in Oakville he was golfing, sailing, flying and sharing
happy hour with anyone who happened to drop in. He made many
Friends in Naples, Florida where he and Margaret were the center
of what they referred to as their "other life". For those who
were lucky enough to cross his path, he was a genuine man's man.
From skiing the mountains of the Alps to diving in the coral
reef, from canoeing Canadian northern lakes to sailing Lake Ontario
and everything in between; he took advantage of all life's opportunities
and he generously shared his experiences with others. The Boy
Scouts at Maple Grove United Church were one of the many groups
that benefited from his commitment to community. Bernard was
admired for his devotion to his five daughters (Bonnie, Catherine,
Ginny, Linda and Pam). His passing is a devastating loss in the
lives of his 5 daughters, ten grandchildren and all those whose
lives he touched. All of our lives have been enriched by Grandpa's
words of wisdom, encouragement and inspiration. His priceless
life lessons will continue to guide us all. Our Canadian Airman
has flown, to touch the face of God.
Final Departure.
Family will receive visitors in the Ward Funeral Home, 109 Reynolds
Street, Oakville (905-844-3221) on Tuesday from 6: 30-8:30 p.m.
Service will be held in Saint_John's United Church, 262 Randall
Street, Oakville on Wednesday, June 18, 2008 at 2: 00 p.m. with
a reception to follow. Cremation. In lieu of flowers donations
to the Salvation Army or a charity of your choice would be appreciated.

WALSH,
James "
Jim"
Anthony
(Told you I wasn't feeling well)
'It is only with the heart the heart that one can see rightly
what rightly; what is essential is invisible to the to the eye'
- The Little Prince.
Always the optimist, believed in the goodness of others, a coach
at business and at play, trusted all to do the right thing, married
34 wonderful years to his soul mate Heather (née
ALEXANDER.)
In his quiet times an avid reader, he loved a good biography,
his heroes were Gandhi, St. Francis of Assisi, Benjamin Franklin,
Nelson Mandela, and Muhammad Ali. Born in Two Mountains, moved
into Montreal to attend Loyola College, upon graduation Jim joined
Northern Electric in Personnel Management. In the early 70's
he discovered sales, and spent the remainder of his career in
sales and sales leadership positions. From '73 to '87 Jim held
a variety of senior executive positions with Pitney Bowes of
Canada. In late '87, Jim moved from the corporate world and began
a new career in the general insurance business. His main objective
was to have more time with his growing family of Heather and
their three young boys, Matthew, Russell, and Graham. In his
professional life, Jim's key to his success was his ability to
identify, recruit, train and develop his staff to their maximum
potential. He coached and convened local soccer and baseball,
but his real passion was coaching rep hockey with the Markham
Islanders and the Leaside Flames Hockey Clubs. He felt it was
a privilege to work with the players and he enjoyed every minute
of it. He will be greatly missed by his family and Friends. Jim
is survived by Heather and their boys, his sister Ann
WALSH of
Two
Mountains, special family friend Susan
CHATTAWAY and many
nephews and nieces. His sister Lin
BEECROFT passed away in 1991.
The family wants to thank Doctor
BEZJAK and all the medical staff
at Princess Margaret Hospital for their wonderful care since
Jim was first diagnosed with lung cancer in 2001. We also would
like to thank all those responsible for Canada's great healthcare
system. A very special thank you to Ted
TOBIAS for his support,
loving care and Friendship. On April 16th 2008, Jim peacefully
passed on at home, surrounded by his sons, in the arms of his
devoted wife. A celebration of Jim's life will take place in
Markham at Chapel Ridge Funeral Home, 8911 Woodbine Ave, 905-305-8508.
Visitation on Sunday April 20th, 2pm-4 p.m. and 7pm-9 p.m. Service
on Monday April 21st at 11: 00 a.m. In lieu of flowers, a donation
to the Princess Margaret Hospital would be greatly appreciated.
