CUNNING--In memory of a loving Mom and grandmother, Joyce
CUNNING, who passed away March 1, 1976.
If I had all the world to give,
I'd give it, yes, and more
To hear her voice, see her smile
And greet her at the door.
But all I can do, dear Mother
Is go and tend your grave,
And leave behind tokens of love
To the best mother God made.
I like to think when live is done,
Wherever heaven may be,
She'll be standing at the door
Up there to welcome me.
You are sadly missed and always remembered. Love, Tom and Jackie and
grandchildren Melissa, Michelle and Cory.

CUNNING--In memory of a loving Dad and grandpa, David Cunning, who passed
away March 13, 2007.
God looked around His garden
And He found an empty place.
He then looked down upon this earth
And saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering.
He knew you were in pain.
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb
So He closed your weary eyelids
And whispered, "Peace be thine."
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone,
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
You are sadly missed and always remembered. Love, Tom, Jackie and grandchildren Melissa, Michelle and Cory.

RENNIE,
Eleanora "
Norah"
Stuart (née
SIMPSON)
Matriarch, gentle role model, quiet saint. Born around June 3,
1917, in Edinburgh. Died August 14, 2007, in Toronto of cancer,
aged 90.
By Adam RENNIE,
Page L6
In Edinburgh during the First World War, Marion Scott
CUNNINGHAM
gave birth to her 11th child. Unlike three brothers before her,
the child survived - ach, she must be a strong one.
She was born Eleanora Stuart
SIMPSON. By age 6, she and her family
moved to Bolton, Ontario
Norah, as she was known, grew up and lived most of her life in
Toronto's west end. Her father was a tailor and a strong role
model. His views on parenting were clear: "Never hit your kids
on the head," he told her, and she never did.
She remembered all the rites of passage: her first kiss ("which
was after my first steak on a bun, and even better than the steak")
and her first cigarette ("I discovered it was possible to be
sneaky, daring, nauseated and have a death wish at the same time.").
She married in her early 20s and had four boys - Jim, Rob, Ross,
and Dave.
In 1954, hurricane Hazel swept through Toronto. The market gardens
where Norah's husband, Andy, worked were flooded, so he was out
of a job. She said he was never the same afterward. He and Norah
eventually separated because of his increasingly abusive behaviour.
Norah's unplanned independence didn't daunt her; she maintained
her calm demeanour. For a long time, she worked as a waitress
at Simpsons. When she had too many tables to look after, Norah
had a foolproof tactic. As soon as her customers started to look
impatient, she would stop by and ask if they had been served
yet. "You haven't?" she would say in shock. "Well, your waitress
must not be paying attention. I'll just take care of you." They
always tipped her a little extra for being so considerate.
Cunning aside, Norah's selflessness knew no bounds. For more
than a decade she worked as a nurse's aide at a sanatorium for
tuberculosis patients. Her dedication to the community seemed
to grow with age - when she wasn't helping at a charity thrift
shop, she was volunteering with her church group. When she wasn't
knitting socks or a blanket for a new grandchild (hers or a stranger's),
she was helping other people in her building with their grocery
shopping.
Lying in her hospital bed with terminal cancer, Norah remained
her indomitable self. When the doctor delivered the news that
she didn't have much longer to live, she took his hand and said,
"This must be very hard for you."
Norah compared her life with those of great women and thought
it paled in comparison. She saw herself as a tailor's daughter
who never had a proper education or career - not as the daring
and independent role model that she was.
Adam RENNIE is Norah's grand_son.

do, her arm in the 'Caroline hug,' hand hooked behind the neck
and around a shoulder. She always had an excellent grip in her
hugs - they made you feel like you were the most important person
on earth. But this was par for the course, for Caroline excelled
at taking a mundane moment and making it special, her spirit
was irrepressible and extraordinary, and she was the queen of
the brilliantly hilarious non-sequitor. 'Spartacus gives me tingles,'
she once announced, apropos of nothing. We had a wall in our
apartment in Lennoxville covered in such sayings - a compendium
of the workings of Caroline's beautiful mind, cut shockingly
and unexpectedly short on April 8th 2007 when she passed away
peacefully in her sleep after an Easter weekend spent with her
family, a time of happiness made complete with Caroline and her
younger sister Val driving back to Toronto belting out show tunes,
(no doubt punctuated with Caroline's pointed finger in the air
keeping the beat, and her favourite expression of the moment,
'superstah!'). Bishop's colour might have been purple, but Caroline
painted that town red. There were very few clubs she didn't join,
not a lot that she didn't do - from playing softball and numerous
other intramurals, to singing in the choir, to being a member
of CJMQ, Entertainment Editor of The Campus, an editor of
the Bishop's Directory, an actor in Theatre Activ, a member the
Model United Nations, a sometimes-active participant in the 'I
Will Never Eat Another Morsel of Poutine' club, and one of the
Bakery Girls (the appellation given to a group of CJMQers
living above what was then Green's Bakery, a spot that became
a location so central that after a time bakery came to be an
adjective and a compliment - Oh yes, I know her, she's so bakery).
Although she never finished her degree, Caroline landed firmly
on her feet after leaving Bishop's in 1999, traveling regularly
and visiting Australia, Cuba, The United States, Europe and Africa
(collecting Friends along the way), working on Bay Street, and
participating annually in the Toronto Film Festival where her
photographic memory for film Credits and obscure film Trivia
served her well. It took me a long time to find words to describe
the radiance of Caroline's personality and to try to convey the
devastating impact of her loss. It always seemed that Caroline
exceeded any capacity of language to describe her, that the words
simply didn't exist. But perhaps they were there all along, where
it began. If a lounge singer ever got it right it was Neil Diamond.
At her memorial ser vice, hundreds of people hummed the opening
bars of 'Sweet Caroline,' voices cracking in the verse, breaking
into song in the famous chorus - Ba Ba Ba -- the words carrying
out of the front door of the funeral home and up above the streets
to the sky. The world is a little darker without her, for she
was bright as yellow, our C.C., our Caroleaner, Petal, Carolinus,
Sweet Caroline.'

Burlington, Washington, and John
CUNNINGHAM,
Sarnia,

and many nieces and nephews and their families across Canada
and the United States. Jim had a special close relationship with
his nephew Doug
CUNNINGHAM of Sarnia who provided comfort, companionship
and aid to Jim in the last few months before his death. Jim traveled
abroad extensively until his handicap required him to use a motorized
wheel chair and scooter, He was a prominent figure in the Annex
area around his home on Tranby Avenue, sporting his favourite
Fisherman's cap, driving his scooter adorned with a large Canadian
flag on shopping forays. His backyard annual Canada Day celebrations
became the social event of the year for Tranby Avenue residents.
Jim's wishes were that no funeral service or memorial be held.

Cemetery, Ingersoll, Ontario. Jim's true love was Sigma Chi Fraternity,

to his countless Sigma Chi brothers who will remember him as
one possessed of the qualities of good character and morals,
responsibility, a high sense of honour and a spirit of congeniality.
We will miss you Brother Christopher James
GRIMES,
All honour
to his name.
