Victim remembered as hard-working, generous
By Ashley HOUSE,
Sun
Media,
Thurs.,
July▼ 3, 2008
Simcoe -- Friends and family of Jeffrey
MARREEL say there was
so much more to him than his drug addiction and criminal record.
"He had a heart of gold," said his mother, Margaret
MARREEL.
Delhi native Jeffrey
MARREEL, 36, collapsed and died after being
Tasered by Norfolk Ontario Provincial Police in Fisher's Glen
on June 23. Ontario's Special Investigations Unit is probing
the case.
Like most little boys,
MARREEL was a handful, Margaret said.
She used to work in the tobacco fields in Aylmer when
MARREEL
was young.
"It was the summer that song The Streak was popular," she recalled.
"And sure enough you'd see Jeff, he was only two years old or
so, but he'd be running through the tobacco field naked. I'd
find a sock here, a sock there, his shorts over there. He was
a handful."
Friends still can't believe he's gone.
"We've been Friends for 20 years," said Ron
MUDFORD, who met
MARREEL in high school. "We did everything together, camping,
concerts, living together. He was a great guy and my best friend.
It's like losing a brother."
Those close to him describe him as hard-working, compassionate
and generous.
"He'd stay with me for awhile, trying to get away from the drugs,"
MUDFORD said, adding
MARREEL was ashamed of his habit and would
be clean for months before something would trigger him to use
again. "I never had to ask him for grocery money or rent because
he just gave it to me."
Margaret remembers her son's generosity following a house fire
in Delhi, years ago.
"The guy came out of the house without any shoes on and Jeff
went and gave him a pair of his," she said. "That was Jeff. Anything
you needed, he was right there with it. You moving? He was helping."
The Special Investigations Unit has assigned 13 officers to the
case. They continue to interview witnesses: and Friends this week.
"Civilian witnesses: who have come forward as a result of the
appeal of local media… have contributed to the investigation,"
said Special Investigations Unit spokesperson John
YOANNOU.

Of Regina
With great sadness, the family wishes to announce the passing
of Louise, dear mother and grandmother on Sunday January 6, 2008
at the age of 92 years, with her grand_son at her side, after
a brief illness and her half-century-long battle with osteo-arthritis.
Her memory will linger in our hearts forever. Louise was predeceased
by her husband Ernest Allen
MARTENS in 1953 (b. family homestead,
Main
Center,
Saskatchewan,) her parents, Kate Matilda
GARDINER
in 1960 (b. family farm, Westbrook, Ontario) and Arthur Russell

Westbrook,
Ontario,) her paternal grandparents, Margaret
McBURNEY
in 1943 (b. Beverly, Ontario) and Robert
HOUSTON,
Sr. in 1934
(b. Lesmahagow, Scotland). A true Canadian with deep roots here,
Louise is a descendant of a family (Leonard/Chilton) who came
to North America in 1620 on the Mayflower, and she is also a
descendant of another family (McDonell) of United Empire Loyalists.
She is survived by her sons Geoffrey of Westport, Ontario, and
James
(Lorena
May
BLONDIN) of Regina, and her grandchildren,
Robert and Miranda. Louise was the daughter of a Canadian Pacific
Railway station-agent and was born in the station-house in Perdue,
Saskatchewan, in 1915. Her early schooling was there, and her
piano-lessons only a short ride away over the rails to Saskatoon
where she subsequently attended the University of Saskatchewan
(Home Economics), and later on, business school in London, Ontario.
With a young family to support, Louise returned to work (Government
of Saskatchewan), finally retiring in 1982. Where did the time
go? She will be remembered for her independence and her dedication
and generosity to her family, Friends and co-workers. She loved
Rachmaninoff; but despised country-music. She was her own woman
to the end. A memorial service will be held at Speers Funeral

BURGESS,
Reverend
Harold
N., B.A., B.Div. (1915-2008)
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing on July 20,
in hospital, of a very special man who met all of life's challenges
in a positive way. He was a caring husband, father and grandfather
who gave generously of his time and energy. In his ministry,
he contributed greatly to society as he counselled, encouraged
and comforted his parishioners. Harold played a pivotal role
in the establishment of blood donor clinics in Ontario in the
early '50s. He quickly became a regular blood donor himself and
encouraged others to donate too. He was a pioneer in religious
radio and television. In later years, he served on the religious
advisory board at CTV. He will join his beloved wife of 61 years,
V.
Gwendolyn (2003, née
BECKEL) and leaves behind his loving
daughters, Joan
VAN
HOUTEN and Elizabeth
SCHUERMANN and her husband
John.
Harold was a proud and cherished Grandpa to Kirsten
VAN
HOUTEN and Kristofor
SCHUERMANN and his wife
Elaine. He leaves
his brothers Gordon (Laurel) and Doug. He is predeceased by his
sister Kathryn. Harold was born in Giles, Ontario. He served
the United Church for 44 years, with charges in Cressy, Oak Lake
(Man.), Thomasburg, Athens (Ont.), Cornwall, Toronto and Etobicoke.
Harold had a great wit and sense of humour. He spent many happy
hours on curling rinks and golf courses. He thoroughly enjoyed
performing marriage ceremonies and did so until the age of 92,
first in his churches and then in the chapel at Mississauga City
Hall. Harold was an avid reader, preferring a good mystery above
all else. He will be greatly missed. Friends may call at the
Turner and Porter 'Peel' Chapel 2, 180 Hurontario Street, Mississauga
(Hwy 10 North of Queen Elizabeth Way) from 12 noon until the
time of the service at 1 o'clock on Friday July 25, 2008. For
