BAIRD,
John
Peter
At Toronto, on Tuesday, January 25, 2005, at 4: 00 p.m., John,
at age 91, peacefully slipped away to his eternal rest surrounded
by his family and secure in his faith, both of which were so
very important to him. Loving and cherished husband of Margaret
(Peggy) for 64 years. Dear father of Jennifer and her husband
Randy REESE,
Janet
CALLAGHAN and her partner Jeff
BUTLER. He
is remembered lovingly and proudly by his grandchildren Vanessa
and her husband Boaz
AXELRAD,
Lindsey and her husband Jordan
BLACK, Brendan
CALLAGHAN, Courtenay
WISE, Miranda
CALLAGHAN,
Darcy CALLAGHAN and his fiancée Taissa
PRYCHODKO, and by his
great-grandchildren Neeve and Kai
AXELRAD and Zoe
BLACK.
John
led a full and remarkable life that began in Newcastle upon Tyne
on November 23, 1913. He joined the British Army as a very young
man and rose to the rank of Major on a journey that took him
to India with the Royal Horse Artillery, Singapore and Europe
as well as North Africa, Iraq, Egypt and Italy during World War
2. One of John's joys later in life was the time he spent as
a retiree working as a court clerk for the family court of Ontario.
John learned a lot about the fine work and difficult decisions
that must be wrestled with on a daily basis by the lawyers and
judges in their efforts to protect a fair and just society. John
never stopped learning and was always deeply interested in public
affairs and international politics. Though he spent many years
as a soldier, he was deeply saddened by the expansion of violence
and wars throughout the world, especially the involvement of
foreign troops that escalate these circumstances and expose the
soldiers to unnecessary danger. A mass will be held at Our Lady
of Perpetual Help Church, 78 Clifton Road (at St. Clair Avenue
East), on Saturday, January 29th, at 1: 30 p.m.

BUCEK,
Gertrude
Anna "
Trude"
Peacefully at Leisureworld Scarborough, just before dawn on Saturday,
February 26, 2005, in her 91st year. Mother, grandmother, great-grandmother,
talented homemaker, gardener, arts enthusiast, antique collector
and hostess extraordinaire, she went silently and very gently
into that good night. Born in Vienna in the early months of World
War 1, she lived in Austria and former Czechoslovakia until she
emigrated to Canada in 1951 with her husband and four (soon to
be five) young daughters. From her mother, Matilde
BOUKAL, an
opera singer, and her father Richard
WALDEK, owner of the Grand
Hotel Waldek in Pilsen, she inherited a love of opera and a remarkable
sense of style. Friends and family have witnessed with sadness
more than a decade of dramatically declining health. Her daughters
are very grateful to caregivers Francine
BARIT and more recently
Brenda SYLVESTER, together with the dedicated staff of the 6th
floor at Leisureworld Scarborough. Predeceased in 2002 by her
husband of 63 years, Jaro, she is remembered with love by her
daughters Olga
