- from your four angels.
Hon, I am honored to have been your wife. We have shared so many
of "life's experiences" together, and have stayed best Friends

FOURNIE,
Georgina (née
CORRIVEAU)
Lived a glorious life. From her early days growing up in St.
Joseph's, Ontario, to her 60 years in London, Ontario, she lived
life to its fullest. Born May 11th, 1930, she peacefully passed
after a very rapid bout with cancer on November 10th, 2005. Although
sadly missed, we are grateful for the fact that she raised four
wonderful children. She is predeceased by our dad Morley, her
true love, who passed away on April 14th, 1987 and her parents
Ed and Bertha
CORRIVEAU.
She is survived by sisters Yvonne
JEFFERY
(and husband Pete, who was like a brother) of St. Joseph and
Marie WILD of Exeter. Georgina has four children and lots of
grandchildren and great grandchildren. Rob

Cody and Tyler. Georgina always took great delight in having
her family around her. Mom always laughed to the point of tears
when we'd get together. "I have four crazy kids" she always said
and marvelled at the next generation coming up. Throughout this
tough period, her family was at her side as she was for us throughout
our lives. She was and will continue to be an inspiration and
model for all of us. Thank you Mom, we love you! To her many
Friends who shared her life through the Catholic church, playing
cards, dancing, travelling and of course the Legion (Victory
Branch), we thank you. Although a short stay at University Hospital,
we appreciate the support from the nursing team. Also a special
thanks to the two outstanding professionals: Dr. Matt
FELTHAM
who showed compassion in our family's time of need and to Dr.
Valerie SCHULTZ of the Palliative Care Pain Team who ensured
mom's comfort. We would like to also express our appreciation
for the thoughtfulness of Father Leslie and her childhood friend
Sister Bernadette. Your prayers meant the world to her. Visitation
will be held at the Lloyd R. Needham Funeral Chapel on Sunday
from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. with prayers to be held at 3 p.m. and a
Legion service to be held at 7 p.m. under the auspices of the

saw you sinking And watched you fade away Our hearts were almost
broken We wanted you to stay. But when we saw you sleeping, So
peaceful, free from pain, How could we wish you back with us
To suffer that again. It broke our hearts to lose you But you
did not go alone, For part of us went with you. this day God
took you home. We love you Dad, you will always be in our hearts.

Man, 22, drowns at quarries
By Joe BELANGER,
Free
Press
Reporter
A 22-year-old Caledonia man drowned Saturday while swimming in
a popular private park in Innerkip, northeast of Woodstock.
Police did not release the man's name, saying his family had
not been contacted.
Oxford community police said the man was visiting Trout Lake
park, a privately owned swimming hole popular among young people,
who also refer to it as the quarries.
The park was packed Saturday as people sought relief from the
heat, which climbed higher than 30°C.
At about 8: 45 p.m., the man jumped from a diving board about
six metres above the water.
"He went into the lake and didn't resurface," Const. Don
McKENZIE
said yesterday.
Innerkip volunteer fire fighters recovered the man's body and
attempted to resuscitate him.
The man was taken to Woodstock General Hospital, where he was
declared dead soon after arrival.
An autopsy is expected to confirm the cause of death.
The privately run park, which is a day-use and a camping facility,
was open yesterday.
One park user said she heard reports the man did a somersault
off the diving board and possibly hit his head with his knees
on the way down.
Diving boards of various heights surround the lake, which was
once a quarry.
There are no lifeguards at the park, but signs warn people to
swim at their own risk.
Yesterday, park officials refused to discuss the incident.
When asked whether similar incidents had occurred at the park,
a woman who answered the phone said: "We can't give you any information
about (the victim's) status."
Meanwhile, a 67-year-old Romanian man remained in critical condition
yesterday from injuries he suffered in a single-car crash that
claimed the life of his 61-year-old wife.
Brandusa-Maria
MOSNEAGU was killed Saturday in the noon-hour
crash that occurred while the driver of the car in which she
was a passenger attempted to pass another vehicle on Wellington
Road north of Saint Thomas.
The car skidded out of control, rolled and caught fire.
Brandusa-Maria
MOSNEAGU died in Saint Thomas Elgin General Hospital,
while her 67-year-old husband, Niculae
MOSNEAGU, was in critical
condition at Victoria Hospital in London.
The couple was visiting from Romania, police said, and travelling
with a 29-year-old North York man.

Respected doctor most proud of his musical achievements
By Sarah FRALEY,
Free
Press
Reporter
He was a Middlesex County coroner for almost four decades, a
dedicated doctor and father to three children who all went into
health care.
But
John
(Ozzie)
MERRITT also will be remembered as a talented
musician and a man who loved a good game of golf.
"(It) was a passion of his. He had three holes-in-one," said
Rick MERRITT, his oldest son.
"His biggest passion and what I would say was his biggest success,
was he was an accomplished musician."
MERRITT, who battled Alzheimer's disease in his final years,
died June 10 at 89.
A talented piano player,
MERRITT played with the Morgan Thomas
Dance Band on radio shows broadcast coast-to-coast in the 1930s.
He also played at Port Stanley's Stork Club, which attracted
such big-name musicians as Louis Armstrong and Guy Lombardo.
"What he achieved at piano most people never achieve," son Rick
MERRITT said. "He had his teaching certificate by the time he
was 16."
Born in Grimsby,
MERRITT graduated from medical school at the
University of Western Ontario in 1943. He began practising in
Delaware after serving in the army until 1946.
After seven years, he moved to Lambeth and served as a coroner
for London and Middlesex County for 39 years.
He retired from that job at 70 but practised medicine for seven
more years, completely retiring in 1994.
Rick MERRITT, founder of the Dove Dental Centres, said he doesn't
see the kind of dedication that his father had in the medical
field today. A good work ethic was something his father inherited
from his mother Ethel, he said.
"She always said 'If a job is worth doing, it is a job worth
doing well, to the best of one's ability or it's a job not worth
doing at all,' " he recalls.
MERRITT made that his life's philosophy.
Friends and colleagues remember him as an excellent physician.
"He was a solid practitioner and his patients loved him," said
Howard CAMERON, an orthopedic surgeon in London. "He was always
a perfect gentleman."
"He was a good friend and a good family man," added Don
MacKENZIE,
a London surgeon who attended medical school with
MERRITT.
As a father, "he was always preparing you for being an adult,"
said his son. "He was a good all-around fellow but very strict.
There wasn't a lot of compromise in his life."
As a child, Rick
MERRITT said he learned valuable lessons --
such as the consequences of dangerous driving -- when he went
with his father on house calls or to vehicle crashes.
MERRITT was proud all three of his children pursued medical professions.
Rick and Robert
MERRITT both went into dentistry, and daughter
Linda BRAY is a registered nurse.

Service for Ian
LANG on Saturday
By Michael
GENNINGS,
The
Connection,
Page
A man who dedicated his life to teaching, public service and
the environment has died.
Clearview Township Ward 3 councillor Ian
LANG, 62, died Monday
afternoon at his home near Dunedin.
"It's very shocking," Clearview Township Mayor Fran
SAINSBURY
said during an interview at the municipal office in Stayner.
"We are all extremely sad for Marjorie and the family."
The mayor said council and municipal staff will do whatever possible
to support
LANG's family.
A sign of compassion was already evident at the township office
Tuesday -- flags were lowered to half~staff
LANG, a seven-year member of council, was remembered fondly by
colleagues and staff.
Chief administrative officer Sue
McKENZIE, who regularly rode
with LANG to and from council meetings, was near tears as she spoke.
"He wasn't just a councillor -- he was a friend. He was an amazing
person, very devoted to the job."
Deputy-Mayor Ken
FERGUSON said he's lost a "friend and good colleague
who's input will he missed."
FERGUSON, who last spoke with
LANG over the phone for about 30
minutes on Friday, said: "while we didn't always agree we respected
each other and that allowed for a good relationship."
Ward 7 councillor Shawn
DAVIDSON called
LANG's death "tragic."
"He was very dedicated, one of our hardest working council members,"
DAVIDSON said.
Former mayor Bob
McKEE, who now lives in Collingwood, said he
was saddened to learn of
LANG's death.
"Of my council Ian was among the top three people we had," said
McKEE.
"He was a real asset to us, giving a lot of his time."
During the last term of council,
LANG oversaw the launch of a
municipal newsletter in order to maintain better communication
with residents.
LANG's passion was the environment, something evident from the
committees and boards he served.
The retired science teacher, who taught for 29 years at North
Collegiate in Barrie, served on the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation
Authority, the Niagara Escarpment Commission, the Clearview Tree
Committee, the Lake Simcoe Nottawasaga River Watersheds Assimilative
Capacity Study and the Blue Mountain Watershed Trust Foundation.
Outside of the environment realm,
LANG was on the. Creemore Medical
Centre Services Board and volunteered with Habitat for Humanity.
As a councillor he successfully advocated that Clearview spend
almost $300,000 on provincially mandated water system upgrades
at aging community halls, saying the facilities were the heart
and soul of rural life and must be kept open.
LANG is originally from Scotland. He came to Canada about 30
years ago.
He and his wife, Marjorie, have two grown daughters.
Earlier this year
LANG returned to Scotland, where his mother
still lives, taking a grandchild along for the trip. At the time,
LANG remarked while it was nice to visit he'd long since considered
Canada his home.
A memorial service for
LANG will be held at Creemore's Station
on the Green, 10 Caroline Street, at 4 p.m. on Saturday.
McKENZIE said the family is still waiting for autopsy results
to determine the cause of death.
For more information, call Fawcett Funeral Home in Creemore at 466-2108.

MacDONALD,
Finlay
Michael
59, died Thursday morning, December 30, while playing tennis
in Halifax.
Born in Sydney, August 2, 1945, he was the
son of the late Senator
Finlay MacDONALD and Ann
(MacKENZIE)
MacDONALD. He was educated
at St. Francis and Saint Mary's University High School, St. Francis
Xavier University and Dalhousie Law School. Finlay spent his
professional life in broadcasting and politics.
Finlay began his broadcasting career at
CJCH
Radio in Halifax
and then, while still in law school he moved on to television,
creating the current affairs program ID which was the predecessor
to ATV's top-rated Live at 5. After anchoring and reporting at
CJOH-TV in Ottawa, Finlay became CTV's first national correspondent
for Atlantic Canada. Finlay rose to the pinnacle of his profession
when he was posted as a national reporter for CTV News on Parliament
Hill. His marquee accomplishments included being the first Canadian
journalist to ever interview Cuban President Fidel Castro in
Finlay was an entrepreneur and an innovator. He built a pioneering
television network, The Star Channel, which revolutionized the
pay television industry in Canada. In recognition of his accomplishments,
he was appointed to a Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications
Commission National Royal Commission. He later used his expertise
to become one of the nation's leading regulatory and licensing
consultants in the broadcasting industry.
Never one to seek the spotlight, Finlay offered counsel to countless
successful business, political and professional leaders. A life-long
lover of politics and a committed Progressive Conservative, Finlay
was among the first to recognize the potential of Nova Scotia
Premier John Hamm, and served as a trusted advisor from the premier's
earliest days in politics.
Fin was a consummate gentleman whose compassion and style were
legendary, as were his infectious laugh and his ability to live
every moment to the fullest. Finlay loved tennis. He loved winters
in Long Boat Key, Florida and summers in Chester. His idea of
a perfect day was two sets of tennis in the morning, "tubing"
with his nieces and nephew, two more sets of tennis in the afternoon

VAN
EGMOND,
Anthony, 1838
Tuesday, January 4, 2005 - Page S7
Nobleman-soldier born in Holland in 1778. A veteran of the Napoleonic
wars who fought on the side of the French, he later settled in
Upper Canada with his family. In 1828, he bought a large parcel
of land in what was called the Huron Tract on condition that
he build roads and prepare it for settlement. He was soon in
conflict with the authorities and joined reformers led by William
Lyon MacKENZIE.
VAN
EGMOND agreed to be military commander in
a future uprising, but
MacKENZIE took action before he could
begin to raise an army. On December 4, 1837, he arrived at Montgomery's
Tavern on Yonge Street only a few hours before government troops
attacked rebel forces had gathered there and urged retreat.
MacKENZIE
refused and, after the rebel defeat,
VAN
EGMOND was found hiding
in a farmhouse and placed under arrest. Held in the damp and
unheated Don Jail, he became seriously ill and died. Although
he was posthumously pardoned, the government confiscated the
VAN
EGMOND family land holdings. He was buried in a graveyard
near Egmondville outside of Seaforth, Ontario

William MacMurray
LOUGHEED
By Donna DOUGLAS/DOUGLASS,
Friday,
February 4, 2005 - Page A16
Neurosurgeon, teacher, husband, father, boat-builder. Born July
9, 1923, in Toronto. Died September 30, 2004, in Barrie, Ontario,
of respiratory failure, aged 81.
There he sat, a short, round-faced young man, hunched over the
dining room table, Plasticine model in hand. At right, his wife's
sewing kit. At left, a brain X-ray. With patience, the young
surgeon recreated that brain, blood vessels, arteries, tissue
everything. He tested needle entry angles, complexities of
reach and retrieval. "Test" over, he left for Toronto General
Hospital. Bill
LOUGHEED's legacy is larger than his own life.
First, surgeon. Then, teacher of medical residents. Researcher.
Author of medical papers that shifted neurosurgery to new heights.
Excellent teachers stand back and let students learn. Even in
life-and-death operating room experiences, Bill could navigate
residents through complex neurosurgical procedures with heroic
patience and achieve a positive outcome, the medical resident's
pride of achievement intact.
The country's medical geniuses pay tribute to the man with the
growly voice, the operating room work-boots, the ability to relate
a procedure involving minute operations on the brain to the building
of a boat. Son, brother, husband of doctors, Bill thought like
an engineer. He looked ahead, tested, thought things through.
Bill's family grew up watching their father "operate" on the
Christmas turkey. Precision, instruction -- doled out with humour
and candour -- were part of the trademark style of the man whose
life-work has saved thousands of lives.
Through neurosurgeon Dr. K. G.
McKENZIE,
Bill▲▼ decided to pursue
research into the blood vessels of the brain. Consider his firsts:
being Canada's first (and one of the world's first) neurosurgeon
to use the microscope in the operating theatre; designer of the
world's innovative, life-saving aneurysm clip; performer of the
world's first long-vein artery bypass for the brain. During his
lifetime he became a neurosurgical superstar.
A man with several communities, Bill balanced, often precariously,
the needs of a vibrant neurosurgical practice, a demanding operating
schedule, research responsibilities, teaching position, and cottage
community where his love of boats embraced the entire family.
Bill built an eight-foot boat for each of his grandchildren.
By the time each was 3, they were -- life-jacketed -- rowing
green or yellow punts up and down the waters of Georgian Bay,
calling on their Friends as awestruck parents looked on.
He believed potential surgeons should be graded on woodworking
as well as science. He used the same approach in his garage as
in his research labs. Make a model. Then test it. Rebuild it.
Retest it. Don't use the marine mahogany until you're sure it's
going to work.
Bill LOUGHEED respected people in every walk of life, his O.R.
nurses as much as surgical residents. He gave the same attention
to the marina owner where he kept his boat as he did to the hospital
Chief Executive Officer.
Bill met his wife, Grace, in medical school and Grace concentrated
on his career and their family of five. She enhanced his ability
to reach for the highest branch. Together they were impulsive,
creative, funny, forgiving. When Bill retired in 1991, they moved
to Barrie to be near family. Here Grace died in 1995. In the
same home, sailboats on the bay outside his front window, Bill
suffered a final respiratory attack. Bill's kids, along with
his later life partner, Margot
MacKAY, celebrated his life with
his "communities." In his later life, Bill created a wonderland
for squirrels, for blue jays, for cardinals, for tiny finches,
coaxing them to his side for daily treats; his last years full
of wonder at the power of a kind voice and patient hand.
Donna is a friend of the family.

BUTCHERD,
Stanley
H.
(April 14, 1924-April 26, 2005)
Passed away suddenly at Welland General Hospital at the age of
81. Stan leaves behind his loving wife, best friend and life-long
travel companion, Dorothy (née
DEARING,) many close Friends and
colleagues.
After serving as a Flying Officer in the Royal Canadian Air Force,
Stan graduated from the University of Toronto School of Architecture
in 1950. A Fellow of the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada,
and past president of the Ontario Association of Architects (1969),
Stan practised architecture for over 54 years - an achievement
that was recognized by the Ontario Association of Architects
in 2004. Stan's career began in Toronto in the offices of noted
architect John
LANGE, before forming a private practice with
Bob CALVERT. In 1957, he moved to Port Colborne to establish
his own company. He was a founding president of the Niagara Chapter
of the Ontario Association of Architects, founding member of
the Port Colborne L.A.C.A.C., and was responsible for the design
of many civic buildings throughout the Niagara region.
Throughout his life, Stan was an inspiration and mentor to many
younger architects. Nowhere was this more evident than when he
formed a partnership toward the end of his career with Robert
MacKENZIE.
Their firm subsequently joined Quartek, a multi- discipline
design and engineering company, where Stan continued to practise
until finally being allowed to retire at age 80.
With Dorothy, he shared a love of travel, music, and art that
endeared them to Friends of all ages. In the glint of his eyes,
one discovered his sense of humour and quiet intelligence. His
profound commitment to citizenry led Stan to become a President
of the Port Colborne Lion's Club, a member of the Police/ Citizen's
Advisory Committee, and an active member of the community's First
Lutheran Church.
Predeceased by his parents, Nellie and Harry (of Eastbourne, England),
he will be greatly missed by his wife, Dorothy, and their Godchildren,
Don RHYNAS
(Jane
MacDONALD) of London, Ann
SMALE of Kitchener
(Wayne MOORE), Jane

to 2001 she worked as a management consultant with AT Kearney,
dividing her time between her home with Daniel in Toronto and
cities across North America, including New York where she and
Daniel lived from 2000 to 2002. In 2002 Naomi and Daniel returned
to Vancouver, where Naomi worked with Arts Umbrella where she
was instrumental in the establishment of the endowment fund in
honor of Carol Henriquez.
Naomi was also active in the community, as a board member of
the Jewish Family Service Agency of Vancouver and co-chair of
its 'Innovators Lunch' held in April 2004, and co-chair of the
Ben Gurion Society and of the Family Day of the Jewish Federation
of Greater Vancouver.
Family and Friends were central to Naomi's life. She had the
ability to touch each of them all of the time. Her children bear
the indelible stamp of her love. She will be missed and remembered
by many.
Funeral services will be held at Temple Sholom in Vancouver at
7190 Oak Street on Sunday, June 26, 2005 at 10: 00 a.m. with the
burial to follow at Temple Sholom's Cemetery in White Rock. (Shiva

Edith FIRTH,
Librarian And Scholar: 1927-2005
Historian who wrote the book on early Toronto was a librarian
with a gift for inspired research, writes Sandra
MARTIN.
Although
she retired in 1982, the Toronto Public Library still profits
from her work
By Sandra MARTIN,
Saturday,
July 30, 2005, Page S9
A woman of impeccable intellectual standards, Edith
FIRTH edited
landmark collections of documents about the early history and
culture of Toronto. As head of Canadian manuscripts at the Toronto
Public Library for 30 years, she belonged to the tradition of
scholar/librarians -- professionals who publish their own research
while providing the tools that enable others to write and study.
"She created a scholarly haven for historians and geographers
in the Baldwin Room," said geographer John
WARKENTIN, who first
met her as a graduate student in the early 1950s. "Aside from
leading just about everybody and their brother to the materials
that they built their reputations on, she was very important
as a historian," said writer Stephen
OTTO. "
Almost anything she
put on paper herself will stand the test of time."
"She was much more than capable," said historian Maurice
CARELESS.
"She was very confident and rightly so because she knew what
she was doing. I felt a great sense of trustworthiness in her
work." As for her books, "they really were very good."
Tall, elegant and reserved, she had a quick sharp wit that she
shared with close Friends and confidants. While clumsy or inept
researchers were treated courteously and given access to the
documents they requested, she was known to mutter: "That man
is a menace."
"We are still reaping the benefit of what she did throughout
her career," said David
KOTIN, her successor as manager, special
collections, at the Toronto Public Library. "She put her stamp
on them and the staff." The library's holdings now include 25,000
books relating to Canada published before 1900, about 30,000
broadsides, posters and ephemera and 80,000 pictures.
Edith Grace
FIRTH grew up in North Bay, Ontario, where her geologist
father had taken up teaching high-school science. The youngest
of four children of Thomas and Amy
FIRTH, she left home in the
late 1940s to attend the University of Toronto, graduating with
an honours degree in modern history and a degree in library science.
After graduation, she joined the staff of the Toronto Public
Library, where she worked in general reference. In 1952, she
was put in charge of the Treasure Room, where the library's rare
books, especially Canadiana, were housed.
She began studying for a master's degree in history in the early
1950s while continuing to work at the Toronto Public Library
and to prepare her first publication, Guide to the Manuscript
Collections in the Toronto Public Libraries, which was issued
in 1954.
Prof. WARKENTIN, the geographer, met her in J.M.S.
CARELESS's
senior seminar on the history of Old Ontario at that time. They
were both a little older than the other students and they "hit
it off together." He remembers her "steely regard" for good scholarship.
"Her standards were very high, and she was quite independent-minded."
Prof. CARELESS remembers her as "highly capable and very engaging
and intelligent." She never finished the graduate degree, perhaps
because she was doing historical research in her job and didn't
feel the need of another qualification. In 1961, she completed
Early Toronto Newspapers, 1793-1867, a catalogue of newspapers
published before Confederation in the Town of York and the City
of Toronto.
When the Toronto Public Library opened its Reference Library
Addition in its building at St. George and College Streets in
1960, Ms. FIRTH was put in charge of the new Baldwin Room of
Manuscripts and Canadiana (named after Reformer Robert Baldwin,
an early advocate of responsible government) and the Toronto
Room, which housed current and bound volumes of Toronto newspapers
and the Early Toronto Picture Collection.
She and Prof.
WARKENTIN renewed their Friendship when they met
up again in the early 1960s as volunteers with the Champlain
Society, an organization devoted to increasing public access
to and awareness of our documentary heritage. "She was the general
editor of the Ontario series and I was elected to the council
[of the Champlain Society]," he said. "We were quite junior members,"
at least compared to the "titans of Canadian history" on the
board at the time -- a list that included W.L. Morton, Donald
Creighton, C.P. Stacey, W.K. Lamb (Dominion archivist and the
first national librarian of Canada) and Leslie Frost, the recently
retired premier of Ontario. "And there was Edith -- shy and reserved,
but, if she made any remarks, they listened because it was very
clear that she was respected as a scholar."
The early 1960s was an optimistic time for Canadian studies in
the run-up to the centennial celebrations. Ontario, and its capital
city, were no exception. It was in this era, when public money
was available to underwrite large historical projects, that Ms.
FIRTH made her mark as the editor of The Town of York, 1793-1815,
which was published by University of Toronto Press and the Champlain
Society in 1962 (with financial support from the Ontario government,
thanks largely to Mr. Frost and his successor, John Robarts).
She had spent more than three years amassing and editing documents
related to the early history of Toronto from the library's own
collections, the federal and provincial archives and many other
repositories and historical societies in Canada and the United
States.
In a review in The Globe, Col.
STACEY, the military historian,
declared The Town of York "the most important book on the history
of Toronto in many years." He described it as "a big handsome
volume of documents" from "the day in 1793 when Col. and Mrs.
John Graves
SIMCOE and the Queen's Rangers arrived to found the
settlement, down to the end of the War of 1812, during which
the place was twice raided by the Americans."
Five years later, on the eve of the centennial year, Ms.
FIRTH
compiled The Town of York, 1815-1834: A Further Collection of
Documents of Early Toronto. She pushed the story ahead to the
incorporation of "dirty little York" into the city we know as
Toronto and the election of journalist William Lyon
MacKENZIE
as its first mayor.
By then, the newly minted Toronto, which had more than 9,000
inhabitants and was the biggest town in Upper Canada, had survived
the cholera epidemic of 1832 and the nascent battles between
MacKENZIE the reformer and the members of the ruling oligarchy
later known as the Family Compact. In reviewing this volume for
The Globe, Col.
STACEY praised Ms.
FIRTH for "the skill and ingenuity
with which she has hunted documents from their hiding places
and explained them, and for the lucid introduction with which
the volume begins."
Prof. WARKENTIN was a frequent user of the Baldwin Room, which
moved to the new Raymond Moriyama facility on Yonge Street that
was opened as the Metro Toronto Reference Library in the early
1970s. He had many occasions to watch Ms.
FIRTH in action on
the floor, or in her office "scribbling away on her research"
and attending to administrative work.
Of course, she wasn't working all the time. She and her older
sister, Mary, an English teacher, lived in a house in Etobicoke,
cared for their widowed mother and attended to an older sister
who suffered from Alzheimer's disease. When they could, the two
sisters travelled -- mainly to England -- and collected commemorative
China, a passion that had begun when Edith's father had given
her a plate celebrating the young Princess Elizabeth after the
coronation of George Virgin Islands.
After
Mary died in 1975, Ms.
FIRTH continued to build the collection,
which eventually included a Charles II plate from 1673, wares
celebrating William and Mary and the Glorious Revolution of 1688
and a 1722 mug mourning the death of Queen Anne. The collection
of nearly 400 pieces, which was displayed on shelves in the recreation
room in her basement, was eventually sold at auction for £160,000
at Christie's in London in 1999.
She retired in 1982 at 55, perhaps with the intention of writing
more books or devoting more time to her hobbies and her nieces
and nephews. The following year, she published Toronto in Art:
150 Years Through Artists' Eyes to coincide with the city's sesquicentennial.
The selection was limited to 70 works by 130 artists chosen for
their historical value in depicting the city from 1834 to 1983.
It won the City of Toronto Book Award in 1984.
Writer Stephen
OTTO met her first as a library user and then
came to know her well when he headed up the Ontario Heritage
Conservation program in the mid-1970s. The odd thing, says Mr.
OTTO, was that she didn't write more actively or productively
after she retired. It was "almost as if she wanted to throw away
her scholarship," he said. Instead, she indulged her passion
for Dandie Dinmont dogs, a breed of Scottish terriers.
In the past few years, the family affliction of Alzheimer's disease
began flexing its deadly tentacles. Lawyer Joseph
CERMAK (a dear
friend who met her after he arrived as a refugee from Czechoslovakia
in 1949 and found a job as an assistant at Toronto Public Library)
kept a caring watch over her, organizing a housekeeper and finally
a nursing home a few weeks ago.
Edith Grace
FIRTH was born in Lindsay, Ontario, on January 27,
1927. She died of Alzheimer's disease in Toronto on July 23,
2005. She was 78. She is survived by a brother-in-law, a sister-in-law,
six nieces and nephews and their families.

After leaving his home in Kilmallock, County Limerick and graduating
from Trinity College in Dublin Alan made his way to Toronto.
He had a brief job with the T. Eaton Co. and then landed the
job he wanted, to teach. He became a teacher at Upper Canada
College and was there from 1925-1965. Alan was a most admired
and respected teacher. He loved the challenge of teaching Mathematics
and was at his best when dealing with those who found the subject
difficult. He was the head of the Mathematics Department for
30 years. Upper Canada College's property in Norval was a great
love of Alan's and he personally supervised and assisted with
the planting of thousands of trees there, results of his efforts
are remembered as the 'Harris Arboretum'. After his wife's death
Alan moved to his property in Caledon with his dog Rheba. He
maintained a first-rate vegetable garden and wonderful flowerbeds.
He also spent many years reforesting this property. He fed countless
birds each winter and took great joy in his last years observing
them with his binoculars on the bird feeder outside his living
room. Much to the delight of many visitors Alan had the chickadees
feeding from their hands. Alan had wonderful loving care over

Calgary and while practicing law in London, Ontario, he met and
married Irene in 1940. They moved to Ottawa where Dick went to
work for the Department of Munitions and Supply from 1940 through
1944. He was General Manager of the Canadian Construction Association,
1945 to 1955, but in late 1950 he was loaned to the Canadian
Government as President of the newly formed Crown Agency, Defence
Construction (1951) Limited, which he headed until 1963. Dick
was then appointed Executive Vice President, then President,
of the Canadian Institute of Steel Construction, Toronto, and
latterly, added the position of Chair, Canadian Construction
Management Institute, Toronto, until his retirement in 1978.
Dick and Irene enjoyed their retirement years with family and
Friends in Oliphant and Toronto. Dick will be remembered as an
innovative builder, consummate administrator, artful conciliator,
the vanguard of the family, a man of wit and good taste, ever
the gracious host. And throughout his life: "always a gentleman".

MacKENZIE
By Rosemary
GANLEY,

Husband, grandfather, teacher, Arctic guide, farmer, neighbour.
Born July 9, 1932, in Ripley, Ontario Died May 5 in Peterborough,
Ontario, of cancer, aged 72.
Don MacKENZIE was an ordinary man who led an extraordinary life.
He died in Peterborough on May 5, after living courageously with
cancer for several years.
Don's knowledge and love of the natural world led to his becoming
an inspirational teacher of geography, a respected leader of
tours to the High Arctic, and a friendly farmer with a "cut-your-own"
Christmas tree farm and a steam-filled sugar shack.
Born in 1932 in Ripley, in southwestern Ontario, Don came from
a musical family with Scottish roots. His father Roy was a pipe
major and his mother Violet played piano. Each of the four MacKenzie
brothers played an instrument in the MacKenzie Family Band and
Don's was the snare drum.
At 18, Don began teaching in a one-room school in the hamlet
of Lothian, and later, a three-room school in Chesley. During
those early years, teaching also included maintaining a wood
stove. "I kept a pot of creamed corn on the stove for lunches,"
Don once said.
During the summers, while earning his B.A., he met his perfect
match: Joyce
HUXTABLE of Oshawa, who was preparing to teach physical
education. Don and Joyce married in 1957 and raised three children
together.
Not long after they were married, they invested in a cottage
on Lake Weslemkoon, near Bancroft. Summers at the lake were an
important part of Don's life. He was a steward of the lake and
an active member of the Cottagers' Association.
At Peterborough Collegiate and Vocational School, Don taught
geography for 23 years. Through his considerable slide collection,
he brought the landscape into the classroom for his students.
Don spent winter weekends volunteering with the Canadian Ski
Patrol System at the local ski hills and Nordic trails. He dedicated
40 years to the organization, as a patroller, instructor, examiner
and member of the national executive. In 1988, Don was honoured
to patrol the Nordic events at the Calgary Olympics.
The north drew Don in a profound way. In 1978, he spent a sabbatical
year in England at Cambridge University's Scott Polar Research
Institute. The next year he was invited to lead a tour to the
Canadian High Arctic. This would be the first of 23 trips over
the next 14 years. Don took his tourists to remote destinations
Grise Fjord, Pond Inlet, Ellesmere Island, Resolute Bay, and
Beechy Island. He was a knowledgeable, organized, and patient
tour leader.
Don spent much of his later life tending the hobby farm where
he and Joyce lived for the past 20 years. His daughter Louise
noted that "he seemed spiritually connected to the land and all
that lives on it. He would buy special trees to encourage birds."
Each year, the MacKenzies welcomed upward of 500 families who
made a seasonal trip to the farm to cut their Christmas tree,
enjoying hayrides and hot chocolate. Don donated part of the
proceeds to Jamaican Self Help, an international development
group he supported in Peterborough. When he was gravely ill,
many long-time MacKenzie Friends came to the farm to prepare
Don's trees for future years.
Don leaves his beloved wife Joyce, his children Ian, Louise and
Janice, and his seven grandchildren, ages 23 to one year.
The night he died, after just three days in palliative care in
Peterborough, a shooting star greeted Joyce and her sister Donna
as they drove back to the farm at midnight.
Shooting star he was, but also a warm, grounded teacher, and
a gifted friend.
Rosemary is Don's friend.

McKENZIE,
Hon.▲
Lloyd
George, Q.C.
Was born August 20, 1918, died October 29, 2005, at Lion's Gate
Hospital, North Vancouver, after suffering a stroke. He was born
in Penticton, British Columbia, moved to Victoria with his family
at age 10 when his father became Minister of Mines and Labour
in the Tolmie Administration, and except while on military service
and at law school lived there for 46 years. After two years at
Victoria College, he enlisted in the Westminster Regiment and
married Betty (née
MAHAREY) before leaving for Europe, where
he served as an infantry officer throughout the Italian campaign.
On his return, in 1945, he enrolled in the first class at the
University of British Columbia Faculty of Law, of which he became
class President, articled to J. Howard Harman, Q.C., and thereafter
practised for 26 years with the Harman firm. He was President
of the Victoria Bar, a Bencher of the Law Society of British
Columbia and for 19 years a Governor of the University of Victoria,
including a term as Chairman. He had a widely-varied practice,
appearing for the Crown or accused in numerous criminal prosecutions
and acting for the Province in notable civil suits, including
the British Columbia Electric takeover litigation and several
major taxation cases, before being appointed in 1974 to the British
Columbia Supreme Court, which required that he move to Vancouver.
During 1977-78 he was Chairman of the Royal Commission on the
British Columbia Railway. After retirement from the bench, in
1993, he acted for 10 years as Information Officer for the Court
of Appeal and Supreme Court, a position without precedent in
which he dealt daily with the media, often on important issues
about which sitting judges cannot speak. He is survived by Betty,
his treasured companion for more than 60 years; also by Anthony

Members of the Children of Peace movement, they were among 800
rebels under the leadership of William Lyon
MacKENZIE who briefly
defended Montgomery's Tavern on Yonge Street against the militia
in what is now Toronto. A Quaker sect from the village of Hope
(now Sharon, Ontario), the Children of Peace was led by the charismatic
Davidson WILLSON, whose concern for the poor caused him to become
radically involved in the politics of Upper Canada. Accordingly,
many of his followers joined the rebellion even though they were
pacifists. In the brief conflict at the tavern, James
KAVANAGH
and James HENDERSON were shot and killed.

Passed away peacefully, at home, surrounded by his family, on
December 31, 2004, after a long and determined battle against
cancer. Peter was born in the Town of Mount Royal, Québec and
attended Sir George Williams University (Concordia), where he
earned his Bachelor of Commerce degree, and McGill University
where he obtained his C.A. designation. He articled and worked
at Price Waterhouse and entered industry with C.I.L. in Montreal,
eventually moving with his family to Vancouver to work as C.F.O.
with Chemetics International; after 20 wonderful years with Chemetics,
Peter enjoyed a career in private consulting. Peter was involved
in many business, professional, and community activities including
F.E.I., I.A.F.E.I., Junior Achievement, and his church. While
growing up in Montreal, Peter was also very active in his community
and excelled in a variety of sports, particularly tennis, baseball,
and hockey, at one time becoming property of the Montreal Canadiens.
Peter was a great supporter of amateur sport, happily volunteering
much of his time to coaching and refereeing. However, Peter's
family was the most important thing in his life, and he was forever
grateful for the many years of happiness with his wife and one
true love, Madelyne, his three children, Heather (Terry), Craig
(Jenny), and Matthew, and his precious grandchild, William, all
of whom he cherished every day of his life. Peter was a man of
great humour and integrity, with exceptional people skills. Amentor,
peacemaker, and skilled mediator, Peter applied his talents passionately
to everything from international business transactions to local
volunteer work. Peter had a gift for seeing the best in everything
and nurturing the best in everyone, and his guidance and strength
will be sorely missed by all those who knew and loved him. A

University football star killed in bar
Suspect turns himself in to Kingston police
By Katie ROOK,
Staff
Reporter
A man wanted in connection with the slaying of a Queen's University
football star at a Kingston bar turned himself in early yesterday
morning.
Justin SCHWIEG, a 23-year-old physical education student, died
after he was stabbed at AJ's Hangar on Princess St. early Friday
morning.
Police, who described the attack as unprovoked, said the suspect
fled the scene when bar staff confronted him.
Around 2 a.m. Friday, Kingston police and ambulance were called
to the dance bar, a popular destination frequented by youth from
the Kingston area, Queen's University and the Royal Military
College.
Earlier, chaos had erupted after the stabbing on the second floor
as screaming patrons pushed and shoved each other to get their
coats to quickly leave, witnesses: said.
"This is a tremendous loss to our community, all because of a
vicious and cowardly act," said Kingston police Det. Sgt. Harley
KELLAR, lead investigator.
SCHWIEG, who was a defensive back for the Queen's Golden Gaels,
had worked as a doorman at the Brass Pub on Princess St. for
just over a year.
"There are nothing but nice things I could say about him. Everyone
looked up to him. He was someone I could really rely on, that's
why I had him," said the pub's general manager Mike
WIEBER.
"He was a hard-working kid, a great attitude not only at work,
but life in general. He was an athlete. He was just on his way
to finishing a university degree. He wanted to get into teaching
and that's what he wanted to do after when he graduated. He would
have been great at it."
In addition to going to school, playing football and holding
a job, SCHWIEG coached youth football.
The Brass Pub bar staff, a tight-knit group, was in a state of
shock and gathered yesterday to try to make sense of the tragedy,
he said.
"I don't know if it has to do with we're getting a bigger population
(in Kingston) or if the kids that are growing up these days are
just getting more violent," he said.
A number of fundraisers are being planned and fellow employees
say they would like to help the
SCHWIEG family.
"I know in big cities like Toronto and Ottawa a lot of these
incidents happen, but here in Kingston it doesn't happen,"
WIEBER
said.
"It's really showing how much Kingston is changing. I just really
think we should open our eyes here in Kingston and we're going
to have to be more aware of things that are going on and maybe
different security measures for getting into the bars."
This was Kingston's second homicide of the year.
Bruce Keno
McKENZIE, 26, also known as Fuzzy or Fuzzy J, is charged
with second-degree murder and possession of a weapon.
He is in custody and scheduled to appear in court today.
A 23-year-old Kingston man, Michael
CRICTOBAL, was arrested by
Toronto police and returned to Kingston where he was scheduled
to appear in court today to face a charge of being an accessory
after the fact to murder.

battle with cancer, Marilyn's concern was not for herself but
for her "Chrissy" as she so fondly called him. Marilyn reached
out her hand and touched your heart. Cancer may have taken her

It is with heavy hearts and deep sorrow that her family announces

After a life of
sickness and operations and then cancer in 1999, she passed away
in Mount Sinai Hospital. Beloved wife of the late Harry
SWARBRICK,
March 11, 1923 to May 11, 1989. The second youngest daughter
of the late Juanita Violet

Juanita
Valerie Joyce
HARRIS,
Joan
Yvonne
JOYCE, and Coral Dawn "Blossom"
Joyce POLLOCK. Survived by her daughters Heather

Valerie and son in law Ralph

Special thanks to Louise
ATKINS and Elka
RUDOLPH for their visits and kindness, over the
years. Manuel and Sandy who brought such happiness to her sister
Blossom and herself, your visits and calls brightened her days.
Thank you also to her Friends and neighbours in San Diego. I
know that you were all sad to see her leave San Diego last summer,
she was just as sad to leave and give up her home and happy memories
there. Thank you to the doctors and nurses in the emergency department
and those on the 12th floor of Mount Sinai Hospital for your
kindness (Sunday April 10, 2005 to Thursday April 14, 2005.)
Mavis' father was a fireman for the city of Toronto and she seemed
to meet firemen wherever she went and at the end it was firemen
who carried her to the ambulance that took her to the hospital.
She felt comfort in that it was like her father was carrying
her as he had so many times when she was a sick child. So, to
those gentlemen and the paramedics - thank you. Before her marriage
Mavis worked for the Steel Company of Canada to aid the war effort
and was a long distance operator for Bell Canada. Mavis was a
stay at home Mom, who always put her family first. She had a
beautiful voice and loved to sing, especially to her family.
Mavis was a kind and caring person who helped everyone in any
way she could. She had a gift for writing beautiful letters to
people to ease their sorrows or brighten their days. Many young
people have called her Mom over the years. We are comforted in
our sorrow knowing that she is with her beloved Harry and family.
She will be missed by family and Friends who knew and loved her.
As per her wishes there will be no funeral service. The cremated
remains of Harry and Mavis will be laid to rest together in Riverside
Cemetery. A memorial service will be held at a later date. Those
wishing to, may make donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation
or the Cancer Society.

(Retired Principal of the Etobicoke Board of Education) Passed

(Shirley). Grandfather of Heather and Jennifer. Loving brother
of Elsie WEISE of Oakville, Annabel (Joseph)
FURROW of Los Alamitos,

PATERSON of Mississauga and several
nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents James and
Barbara (née
McKENZIE)
SCOTT and his sister Florence. Born on
May 17, 1918 in Toronto of Scottish immigrant parents, he attended
Wilkinson Public School and Riverdale Collegiate. In 1940 he
joined the Royal Canadian Air Force and took his pilots training
at Fort McLeod, Alberta prior to going overseas. In 1942 he was
asked to join the Special Duties Squadron 138 to do low level
flying in a Halifax aircraft on moonlit nights over occupied
Europe, delivering spies, canisters of food, medicine and arms
to the Resistance Fighters. On August 12, 1943, his plane with
a crew of seven was shot down in Normandy, France. He and his
dispatcher were uninjured and made contact with the Resistance
Fighters. Eighty-five days later after being passed from safe
house to safe house, walking over the Pyrenees and spending three
weeks in a Spanish jail, he returned to Britain. That experience
influenced the rest of his life. With a strong sense of gratitude
for his survival, he came back home determined to make the most
of his life. Following the war, he became a teacher, working
for the Lakeshore Board and later for the Etobicoke Board, retiring
after 22 years as a principal of an elementary school. Upon retirement,
he pursued many interests. He was past master of the Anthony
Sayer Lodge Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons No. 640 G.R.C.,
past principal of Victoria Chapter Royal Arch Masons No. 205
G.R.C., 33rd degree mason of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish
Rite of Freemasons, and a member of the Ancient Arabic Order
of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. He was past president and librarian
for his air force group, the Royal Air Force Escaping Society.
Belonging to a Speakers' Bureau, to raise funds for the Helpers
(Resistance Fighters) of the R.A.F.E.S. he spoke at many schools
and clubs across Ontario about his wartime experiences. Writing
and editing a newsletter for the R.A.F.E.S. and for the masons
was a challenging project for him. Gifted musically, he played
the piano or organ for Riverdale Presbyterian Church and the
degrees of the Scottish Rite. He enjoyed his many trailers and
travelling across the country during summer vacation. He was
