DENOVAN,
David McClintock
David and his dear wife, Nancy St. Clair Ryley
DENOVAN, died
on November 20, 2007 on Salt Spring Island, British Columbia.
David was the
son of Samuel Parker
DENOVAN and Laura
McCLINTOCK
and the brother-in-law of George Moore
RYLEY, all pre-deceased.
He and Nancy were dearly loved and will be sadly missed by their
niece Norah
RYLEY of Toronto, nephew Peter
RYLEY and his wife
Denise HUPÉ of Ottawa, sister-in-law Jessica
RYLEY of Toronto
and many close Friends. Born on February 13, 1944, David grew
up in Toronto and studied Engineering at the University of Waterloo.
He began his career as a production film editor with Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation television in Toronto in 1967. His editing
credits included popular series such as Man Alive and The Nature
of Things as well as many award-winning dramas and documentaries.
His love of film extended to his personal life where he was an
avid collector and home-theatre buff with a special interest
in the science fiction genre. Later in life, he and his wife
moved to rural western Canada where he became involved in environmental
concerns and efforts to protect wilderness areas while also indulging
his passion for skiing and hiking. Cremation has taken place
and will be followed later by burial and commemorative gatherings.
Memorial donations to the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society,
the David Suzuki Foundation or the Sierra Legal Defence Fund
would be greatly appreciated.

DENOVAN,
Nancy
St.
Clair (née
RYLEY)
Nancy and her dear husband, David McClintock
DENOVAN, died on
November 20, 2007 on Salt Spring Island, British Columbia Nancy
was the daughter of Alfred St. Clair
RYLEY and Norah Frances
MOORE and the sister of George Moore
RYLEY, all predeceased.
She and David were dearly loved and will be sadly missed by their
niece Norah
RYLEY of Toronto, nephew Peter
RYLEY and his wife
Denise HUPÉ of Ottawa, sister-in-law Jessica
RYLEY of Toronto
and many close Friends. Nancy was born on March 14, 1932, grew
up in Montreal, did undergraduate studies at McGill and post-graduate
work at the University of Toronto. Her subsequent career as a
Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television producer, director
and writer was highlighted by her series of documentaries about
Canadian artists, musicians and naturalists. Her choice of subjects
reflected an abiding sense of a soul connection with nature.
Her passion for Canadian art as a representation of that soul
was captured particularly in her films about Emily Carr and Lawren
Harris which received both national and international awards
and continue to be shown in museums and art galleries. Later
in life, Nancy and her husband left Toronto to establish their
own connection with nature in rural western Canada. The proximity
to the wilderness and her own garden sanctuary on Salt Spring
Island gave her great joy. Her 1998 book, The Forsaken Garden,
is based on her experience living with environmental illness
and explores the deep psychological and spiritual relationship
between the health of our bodies and souls and the health of
the planet. To her, "the garden is a metaphor for the soul, a
place where the most important thing is to live and grow; to
return to our garden is to consciously return to a place of fullness
and naturalness of being that the modern world in its frenzied
pace has threatened to obliterate." Cremation has taken place
and will be followed later by burial and commemorative gatherings.
Memorial donations to the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society,
the David Suzuki Foundation or the Sierra Legal Defence Fund
would be greatly appreciated.
