GILRAY,
John
Stuart
Alexander, D.V.M., V.S.
The family of horse lover and equine veterinarian Doctor John
GILRAY
is profoundly sad to announce that their husband/father/grandfather
has succumbed to cancer at the age of 78. John died peacefully
in his sleep on June 5, 2008. He was the beloved partner of Connie
SANDERS, much-loved father of Stuart (Linda)
GILRAY,
Barbara
(Tom) WIEBE,
Ann
GILRAY and Janet
GILRAY (Rick
LETESTU,) and
much-loved brother of Barbara
WILLIAMS. "
Grampa
John" will also
be greatly missed by Vanessa, Paige and Jillian
WIEBE,
Dallas
GILRAY and Mitchell
POTTS.
Passionate about horses from age 13, John always considered himself
lucky that his vocation was also his avocation. He graduated
in 1954 from the Ontario Veterinary College and practiced equine
medicine first in Ontario and then in British Columbia from 1959 to
2007. His accomplishments and contributions to the equine world
were many and varied. In 2004, he was presented with a Lifetime
Achievement Award from Horse Council British Columbia for outstanding
service to the horse industry of British Columbia, and that same
year the Royal Horse Show in Toronto made him an Honorary Veterinarian
in recognition of 50 years of volunteer service.
During his career, John was an Equine Canada judge and steward
an FEI veterinarian; chairman of Zone 5 of the Canadian Horse
Shows Association and a national vice president of its successor,
the Canadian Equestrian Federation; founder of the Northwest
International Horse show, which under his 15-year chairmanship
was the premier all-breed indoor show in western Canada; founder
and first master of the Fraser Valley Hunt; Visiting Commissioner
of the Canadian Pony Club and co-founder of three British Columbia
Pony Club branches. As an equine practitioner, "Dr. John" was
universally respected for his professionalism, knowledge and
integrity. As a friend, he will be remembered for his compassion,
sociability and sense of humour. He will be missed by all those
whose lives he touched.
A celebration of John's life will be held on Tuesday, June 24
at Victory Memorial Gardens, Surrey, British Columbia. In lieu
of flowers, the family suggests a donation to the Canadian Cancer
Society or a charity of your choice.

Risky intersection claims three Carleton Friends
Police trying to figure out what happened in crash that also
injured two other students, one critically
By Gloria GALLOWAY with a report from staff at The Charlatan,
the newspaper at Carleton University, Page A9
Ottawa -- Brianne
DESCHAMPS and Vanessa
CRAWFORD joked about
how close they were by listing themselves as "married" on their
Facebook profiles.
The two bubbly and intelligent girls from Southwestern Ontario
had a lot in common.
They lived in small towns, went to the same country high school,
and headed off to Carleton University in Ottawa to experience
the heady freedom of undergraduate life.
The final chapter of their tight-knit relationship was written
early yesterday when they died, along with their friend Mark
MacDONALD, in a crash that left his sport utility vehicle a tangled
hulk of dark metal.
"They were just great girls. They were just absolutely wonderful,"
said Denise
SYER, who went to high school with the two 19-year-olds
in Petrolia, east of Sarnia. Ms.
SYER could barely speak through
her tears as she grappled with the loss.
Mr. MacDONALD, 20, was also a Carleton student - someone who
was remembered for his love of life and his athleticism.
Police say he was at the wheel when his Toyota 4-Runner was hit
by a bus at about 1: 50 a.m. at an intersection of two main roads
just south of the university, which is notorious for its high
number of crashes.
The force of the impact took out a heavy, metal light standard.
The bus was tossed into a snowbank.
All three young people were pronounced dead at the scene and
two other students in the sport utility vehicle were also injured.
Ben GARDINER, 25, was listed as being in critical but stable
condition in hospital yesterday after undergoing leg surgery.
A 19-year-old female student was treated in hospital and released.
Although it had snowed most of Tuesday, the flurries had substantially
tapered off by the early hours of yesterday.
Police said yesterday afternoon that they were still trying to
piece together what had happened, but they suspected alcohol
might have been involved. The bus driver, who suffered minor
injuries along with one of his passengers, told police that he
had the green light.
Brier DODGE, a Carleton journalism student, grew up in Arnprior,
west of Ottawa, with Mr.
MacDONALD and remembered him as being
a national-level swimmer, though he quit before enrolling at
Carleton.
Ms. DODGE said that Mr.
MacDONALD was the type of guy who loved
to have fun.
"Looking back at him I think you can say that he really did live
every day the way he really wanted to," she said. He and the
two girls who died "all really loved life and to have fun. They
were always inviting people over."
Lindsay SKEOCH, a second-year sociology student, said she was
lost for words. "He was a really good friend and somebody I'll
remember forever," she said of Mr.
MacDONALD. "He was a hilarious
guy. He was always up for fun - always wanted to go out and do
things. He never was one to sit around."
Ms. DESCHAMPS was a music major who planned to teach music privately
after graduation, her father, Stephen
DESCHAMPS, said when reached
at the family's home in Petrolia.
"She loved life, loved her Friends. I loved her giggle, her laugh,
her beautiful, beautiful smile. Anything I'd do would make her
laugh. She was very much a daddy's girl."
Ms. CRAWFORD hailed from Corunna.
Nicole BURK/BURKE, who worked part time with her at the local Tim Hortons
while the two were in high school, described her as fun loving
and someone who was an excellent singer. "She was in the Jazz
Attack group at my school and she was really good."
Paul WIERSMA is the vice-principal at Lambton Central Collegiate
Vocational Institute in Petrolia where both girls went to school.
The students were told of the tragedy at the end of the day yesterday
and a moment of silence was observed.
"They will be very much missed by our senior students and by
our teachers," Mr.
WIERSMA said. "They were full of life and
they certainly were excited by going off to university. They
had a lot of potential and a lot to offer."
At Carleton, flags were flying at half-mast yesterday.
Samy MAHMOUD,
Carleton's interim president, described the news
of the deaths as "devastating."
