GAMMIE--In loving memory of our great dad and grandpa Leslie Gammie who
passed away from our lives 2 years ago April 20, 2006.
We miss you in so many way
We miss all the things you used to say
And when old times we recall
It's then we miss you most of all.
Farming was your pride and joy
And on your International tractor
Out you would come
With a smile on your face
And so ready to go
To haul hay to the barns with a glow.
Then we would sit and chat
And always play cards
All part of our day
After we had worked hard.
We often think of days gone by
When we were all together
And when times of love are broken
And love ones have to part
It leaves a wound that never heals
In an ever aching heart.
Love you and miss you every day.
Evelyn, Lindsay Roszel, Amie, Terry and Chris

GAMMIE--In loving memory of our dear, sweet mother and grandma Jessie
Gammie, May 19, 1999.
No one heard footsteps of angels drawing near,
That took you from earth to heaven
The one we loved so dear.
We didn't get to say goodbye, perhaps it's just as well
For we could never say goodbye
To the one we loved so well.
To hear your voice, to see you smile, to sit and talk with you a while,
To be together in the same old way, is our fondest wish today.
It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone
For part of us went with you when God called you home.
Please, dear God, take her a message in heaven up above
Tell her how much we miss her and give her all our love.
Sadly missed and always loved, Evelyn and Lindsay Roszel, Amie, Terry and
Chris.

STRATFORD, Doctor Joseph "Joe" G., M.D., F.R.C.S.(C)
Father, grandfather, husband, neurosurgeon, pain physician, mentor, leader, colleague, friend. Born September 5, 1923, in Brantford, Ontario Died July 22, 2007, while on holiday in southwest France of leukemia, aged 83.
By Ann GAMSA and Ron MELZACK, Page L6
After his day's work as a neurosurgeon, Joe Stratford would come home to cook dinner and attend to household chores his wife, Aurelie, could no longer do.
Her left side became paralyzed after a stroke in 1965, when their children, Huntly and Leslie, were 9 and 7.
Every morning until her death in 1983, Joe brought Aurelie breakfast in bed. One day, Joe arrived at a party, swept Aurelie out of his car and bounded up the steps to the front door, carrying her in his arms with a broad smile and expression of love on his face.
Joe began his medical career as a student in the Canadian Arctic during the summer of 1943. Soon after, he conducted brain research on multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease and transplant treatments. His contributions to medicine are too numerous to list, as are his initiatives, involvements and chairmanships in health care projects.
Unlike many surgeons, Joe cared what happened to his patients after his job of cutting and stitching was done. From them he learned that severe pain may persist even after successful surgery. In 1974, Joe worked with pain specialists to build one of the first multidisciplinary teams for treating pain. His legacy remains today at McGill University's pain treatment centre in Montreal.
Joe achieved eminence in his three professional roles as surgeon, chief of neurosurgery and director of the pain clinic. But to tell him so would elicit a shy and awkward response. He was humble and uncomfortable with praise.
He maintained contact with the many students he mentored. But he was not just a serious man of service. Many times we witnessed his wry, mischievous, sometimes churlish sense of humour. To the greeting, "Good morning," he'd reply, "Oh, is it?"
Nor was he an unqualified saint, though to hear his patients speak, one might be excused for thinking so. While known as the "quintessential gentleman," he was capable of showing anger.
Joe was a man of diverse interests and enthusiasms. He loved his quiet country home, his vegetable garden and the ponds he created, and was passionate about Canadian art.
In his daughter Leslie's words, Joe was "dearest friend, guide, example of integrity, tower of strength, jester, sympathetic listener, modest but unimpeachable reference book, practical and pragmatic adviser, bon vivant in his own quiet way, optimist, bel esprit, and revered and beloved head of our family."
She echoes the thoughts of those of us who had the privilege to know Joe as a friend and colleague.
Ann GAMSA and Ron MELZACK are Joe's colleagues and Friends.
