Elliott McCAUGHEY
By Cyril DABYDEEN, page A20
Doctor, cancer researcher, husband, father. Born May 21, 1927,
in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Died May 26, in Ottawa, of Parkinson's
disease, aged 76.
He could have been a lawyer, he said: but combatting diseases
became his lifelong discipline, until Dr. Elliott
McCAUGHEY succumbed
to Parkinson's. Grace, charm, and commitment to work characterized
his life, in his uniquely Anglo-Irish way. But it was in Canada
that he perhaps made his greatest contribution: In Ottawa, he
was chief of laboratory medicine at the Civic Hospital and clinical
professor of pathology at the University of Ottawa in a 14-year
period; he also served as director of the Canadian Tumour Reference
Centre.
"Everyone loved him," said staff at St. Vincent's Hospital in
Ottawa, where Dr.
McCAUGHEY spent his last years as a patient.
His elegant use of the English language and wry humour made him
"endearing and special," said Dr. John
KAUFMANN, retired neuro-pathologist
at the University of Western Ontario. "Elliott's particular use
of the intransitive verb," added Dr.
KAUFMANN, "was integral
to his style, and with his logical mind he was always pleasant
to listen to."
Dr. McCAUGHEY held many memberships in professional bodies in
Britain and North America. His more-than-100 scholarly publications
enhanced his reputation. And he was one of the first to make
the link between asbestos and cancer, appearing often in U.S.
courtrooms as an expert witness on this subject.
The McCAUGHEYs lived for generations in Belfast and Ballymena,
as far back as c.1000, having descended from the High Kings of
Ireland, according to lore. Elliott's father, William, was a
senior civil servant of the Northern Ireland Government; his
uncle Tom ELLIOT/ELLIOTT died in the Battle of the Somme in First World
War.
After graduating from Queen's University, Belfast, Elliott
McCAUGHEY
worked at the Royal Victoria Hospital, where he met nurse Amy
Kathleen PAUL from Kilrea, who became his bride; he then taught
at Queen's University, Belfast. But his intellectual energies
propelled him farther afield. in 1958, he came to Canada as assistant
director of pathology, General Hospital, Saint John's, Newfoundland.
In 1959, he worked for the famed Mayo Clinic in Minnesota.
Returning to Ireland, he headed the department of pathology at
Dublin's prestigious Trinity College, serving from 1964 to 1972.
During this time he spent six months as part of a medical research
team in Nagpur, India, under the World Health Organization.
But patterns of disease in human populations and finding cures
for diseases pre-occupied him. He moved back to Canada, to the
University of Western Ontario, where he was most productive
here he also formed some of his lasting Friendships. Then, in
1976 he came to Ottawa to continue his illustrious career. He
retired after being struck by Parkinson's in 1994; around this
same time his wife Amy suffered a stroke.
Dr. McCAUGHEY was well-known for his generosity. He also read
widely: scientific material, politics, economics, belles-lettres.
He regularly visited the National Gallery, and was an ardent
listener to the short-wave radio, the British Broadcasting Corporation
mainly. A whisky connoisseur he was; and he golfed in Ireland
and elsewhere while travelling to conferences.
In the final months, as his mind teetered and his tremors increased
because of Parkinson's, he flitted back and forth to familiar
Belfast and Dublin, and to former colleagues at Queen's and Trinity:
Images interspersed with life in Canada, his family especially,
all in his ubiquitous consciousness. With his wife Amy and daughters
by his side, Dr.
McCAUGHEY showed immense courage to the end.
He left behind his wife, and children Paul, Claire and Gail
and five grandchildren.
Cyril is son-in-law to Elliott
McCAUGHEY.

-In loving memory of my husband Pete
McCAULEY who passed away April 15, 1969.
There is a bridge of memories
From here to heaven above
That keeps you very close to me
It's called a bridge of love.
As time goes on without you
And days turn into years
They hold a million memories
And a thousand silent tears.

Hospital on Friday, June 6, 2003 at the age of 72 years.
He was born in Gore Bay,
son of the late John Wesley

Christina
(CLARKE)
VANEVERY. He timbered for many years as a way of
supporting his lifelong passion, farming. He also enjoyed the annual
family hunt, snowmobiling, and many other outdoor activities. His
greatest love was spending time with his family and in particular his
grandchildren. Clarke took an avid interest in all of his
grandchildren. With the boys the number one passion was hockey. On
any given Sunday, Clarke would be there cheering them on. With his
granddaughters his relationship was of a more caring nature. Last
summer he and his oldest granddaughter Elizabeth set up house
together in Meldrum Bay as she experienced her first summer job.
Then there is Caroline. The entertainer, speechmaker extraordinaire,
figure skater and all around treasure. Last but not least is our
miracle baby, Rachel, a shining light in a difficult time. His whole
being would lighten up when she was with him. He was a loving and
caring husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend and
will be sadly missed. Many fond memories will be cherished by all who knew him.

McCAULEY,
Jack
Clark
(December 21, 1922 - November 11, 2003.)
After a full and cherished life, Jack
McCAULEY died peacefully
on Remembrance Day in his 80th year. For 46 years, he was the
deeply loved husband of Joan. Jack was the dearly loved father,
father-in-law, and grandfather of: Lyn and her children Carmen,
Lisa and Sarah; Laurel and her husband Guy
PRITCHARD;
Patrick
and Justine
SEGAL and his children Roxanne, Ryan, and Jasmine
John; Brian; and Gordon and his wife Catherine and their children
Peter, Heather and Jay. His many, many Friends and relatives
were very important members of Jack's life.
After graduation from Etobicoke Collegiate and the University
of Western Ontario (Kappa Alpha '49), and honourable service
to his country as a Lieutenant in the Royal Canadian Navy, Jack
enjoyed much success in business through leadership roles with
prominent marketing and sales organizations.
More important, however, was the pleasure he ultimately found
in his family, and coaching and counseling others. Jack came
to appreciate that the essence of community service was the enormous
inspiration he received from the simple act of helping others.
Jack left life as he lived it, the source of wisdom and counsel
to many, with a warm smile and handshake to all, and always with
a funny story to pass along.
In celebration of his life, Jack's family invite all with a happy
memory to join them at a reception at St. George's Golf and Country
Club, 1668 Islington Avenue, on Monday, November 17, 2003 from
5: 00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, the family respectfully
suggests donations to your favourite charity, and that you be
certain today to cherish those you love.
