Young mom of two killed by lightning
By Ian ROBERTSON, Sun Media, Sat., July 22, 2006
Toronto -- Angela
EXELL was hurrying to leave Wasaga Beach with
her children and other relatives when a lighting bolt killed
the young mother of two, says her grieving mom.
"It was just a family day at the beach," her mother, Brenda
HAUCK,
47, said yesterday after leaving a Barrie funeral home, where
arrangements were made for her daughter's funeral.
"It was a wonderful day, until that happened."
As the sky darkened over the popular Wasaga Beach Provincial
Park beach early Thursday afternoon, the family began packing
up.
On the beach with Angela, 26, were son David, 5, daughter Paige,
almost 2, mother-in-law Judy
SCHELL, brothers-in-law Ray and
Darren EXELL, plus sister-in-law Shannon
EXELL, 26, who was with
her sister Belinda
ATKINSON, 23.
Angela was in the open when she was struck down.
Const. Mark
KINNEY was conducting an interview about the Wednesday
drowning of Toronto teen Erfan
TARAJ when he was alerted.
The officer rushed to the beach and tried to save the young woman,
using cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, a colleague said. "He booked
off work today… it was pretty traumatic."
In addition to killing Angela, Shannon and Belinda suffered minor
injuries. The three women were taken to Collingwood General and
Marine Hospital.
Born, raised and schooled in Barrie, the victim was in the Brownies
as a girl, and "loved to paint and draw,"
HAUCK said, her voice
catching at the memories.
"She was very artistic," something her daughter was passing on
to David and Paige, their grandmother said. "She did crafts with
her kids all the time."
Though trained as a manicurist,
HAUCK said her daughter in recent
times "was a homemaker."
Angela and Michael
EXELL, a roofer, married four years ago and
moved into a home in Angus, a village near Canadian Forces Base
Borden, northwest of Barrie.
"If you asked anyone, she was the most loving, beautiful young
lady," her mom said. "She was out to save the world and loved
to help people."
Michael and the children are staying with her and husband Ken.

Taps for Alfred
A beloved old soldier dies, leaving mysteries about his past
unsolved, Peter
CHENEY writes
By Peter CHENEY,
Page M3
To some, Alfred
FINLEY was a tragic icon of the Second World
War, a man who had risked his life for his country only to end
his days in grinding poverty, living in a Toronto garage with
no running water.
Central Casting could not have found a more poignantly photogenic
symbol of war than Mr.
FINLEY, with his dignified face and rheumy
blue eyes -- when Remembrance Day rolled around, he was photographed
and filmed again and again in his Black Watch uniform, tears
running down his cheeks as he recalled past battles and fallen
Friends.
But to others, he was a fraud, with a military history that didn't
add up and a uniform that looked like it had been pieced together
as a costume by a man who wanted the limelight.
After The Globe and Mail featured him in a story two years ago,
recounting an amazing military history including battles at Anzio
and Tobruk and wading ashore on D-Day, veterans suggested that
Mr. FINLEY was not all that he claimed to be -- the Black Watch
regiment, they pointed out, didn't participate in many of the
battles that Mr.
FINLEY recounted. Others said his medals and
insignia were not consistent. A Black Watch Association member
said he could not have done all the things he said he did --
or seemed to believe that he had.
But confronted by the discrepancies, Mr.
FINLEY stood by his
version: "That's how I remember it," he said.
This week, the final chapter in Mr.
FINLEY's strangely compelling
story played out in a Brampton cemetery when he was lowered into
the earth in a simple wooden casket, dressed in his disputed
uniform and surrounded by people who loved him, whether his story
was real or invented -- or a combination of both.
"He wasn't just a soldier to me," said Barbara
HALE-
FRENSCH,
a teacher who befriended Mr.
FINLEY more than a decade ago and
considered him the "adopted grandfather" to her children. "He
was a wonderful old man with a kind heart who gave away everything
he had to others."
By the time of his death at the age of 86, due to complications
from cancer, Mr.
FINLEY had become a local character in Toronto's
High Park neighbourhood, where he spent his days drinking coffee
in the local McDonald's, talking to residents and cruising in
his electric scooter. (He lost one of his legs due to infection
after the war.)
As the 2004 Globe story recounted, he lived in abject poverty,
paying $600 of his $1,000 veteran's pension to landlord Maryann
SCHENBRI, who rented him space in her garage.
He was a fixture at veterans' events, rigging himself up in his
Black Watch uniform and medals for the Canadian National Exhibition
Warriors' Day Parade every August, and for Remembrance Day ceremonies
at Old City Hall in November. He appeared in newspapers and television
newscasts more than half a dozen times. "An Old Vet Remembers,"
one headline read.
In 1996, a photograph of Mr.
FINLEY was nominated for a National
Newspaper Award. His face still appears on a National Defence
website.
Mr. FINLEY's passing has not made his record available -- Department
of National Defence spokesmen said military records remain sealed
for 20 years after death, although military officials have confirmed
that an Alfred
FINLEY served overseas during the Second World
War.
But those who knew him best say that questions about his record
should not define him.
"People knew that at least part of the story was made up," says
Sherry LOW/LOWE/LOUGH-
BERNIE, a High Park Pilates instructor who saw Mr.
FINLEY
almost every day since 2004. "People kept saying that he wasn't
for real. I said, Who cares? He volunteered for his country,
and he wasn't hurting anyone. It really isn't about the details
of his military record. It's about an old soldier who lived in
a garage without running water. Nobody should have to live the
way he did."
Ms. HALE-
FRENSCH, who delivered the eulogy at Mr.
FINLEY's funeral,
wept as she recalled how the old soldier would come to Runnymede
School every morning to listen to her band rehearse, and run
errands for her on his scooter. "What's important is that he
loved people, and that people loved him," she said. "It's not
about the details of what he really did."
Even so, many noticed that Mr.
FINLEY's war stories grew and
shifted over the years, often accumulating pathos and detail.
He told one friend about going ashore at Normandy, but later
said that he had been in Berlin on the same date. He told Ms.
HALE-
FRENSCH
about a dramatic rescue in North Africa, where he pulled five
British soldiers out of a tank that had been hit by German fire
just moments before it exploded. Soon after, he told her, he
had been summoned by Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery, who had
awarded him a medal.
Gail CATNEY, an executive assistant who met Mr.
FINLEY on the
streets of High Park in the early 1990s, said she had been struck
by his generosity. Though he was poor, he refused handouts, and
often brought gifts for her, she said, recalling the time he
brought her a Delft vase. "My heart went out to him," she said.
"He was alone, and he had nothing."
Ms. CATNEY was one of a handful of mourners who attended Mr.
FINLEY's
burial this week. He never married, and had no close family in
Toronto. His service was paid for by the Last Post fund, which
is funded by Veterans Affairs and private donations.
Mr. FINLEY was dressed in his Black Watch uniform and cap, and
a piper played Amazing Grace as his flag-draped casket was lifted
by the pallbearers. The military was represented by Master Corporal
Victoria LOGAN-
WHITE/WHYTE, a young cadet with the 75th Toronto Scottish
Regiment who had often accompanied Mr.
FINLEY to veterans' events.
"I knew him my whole life," she said.
Ms. CATNEY cried as she placed a red plastic poppy on Mr.
FINLEY's
casket before it was lowered into the grave. "Goodbye, Alfred,"
she said. "We love you."
Another friend of Mr.
FINLEY's listened to the eulogy, then noted
sadly that his possessions were sitting out on the street less
than 24 hours after his death. "His mattress was at the curb,
and everything he owned was in five garbage bags," she said.
Ms. SCHENBRI, his landlady, wouldn't talk about her former tenant
this week, but once said that she saw nothing wrong with his
living arrangements, despite the lack of plumbing and the fact
that he had no privacy, since she walked through his room to
get to her car.
"Please," she said. "He's like my father."
Ms. SCHENBRI did not attend Mr.
FINLEY's funeral this week.

SCHENKMAN,
Peter
Quarles
Peter Quarles
SCHENKMAN passed away on Wednesday, February 22nd,
2006. Peter was born in New York City on December 6th, 1937.
Between 1955 and 1959 Peter studied cello with Leonard Rose at
the Curtis Institute. During this time he performed as a member
of the Casals Festival Orchestra in San Juan, Puerto Rico. In
1959, shortly before graduating from Curtis, Peter successfully
auditioned for Eugene Ormandy for a position in the Philadelphia
Orchestra, however the United States Army drafted him and he
spent the next three years in Washington as a member of the U.S.
Army Band studying under Claus Adam, cellist of the Julliard
Quartet. Upon his discharge in 1962, Peter won an open audition
for a place in the Boston Symphony and remained with the Boston
Symphony Orchestra for three years. In 1965 Peter was offered
and accepted the position of principal cellist with the St. Louis
Symphony by Eleazer De Carvalho. He stayed in St. Louis for two
years before moving to Toronto and accepting the position of
principal cellist with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra at the
invitation of Seiji Ozawa. Peter stayed with the Toronto Symphony
Orchestra through Karel Ancerl's (the former Music Director of
the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra) tenure, leaving after Ancerl's
death at the end of the 1974 season. While a principal cellist,
Peter gave first performances of the Hindemith Concerto of 1940
(in St. Louis) and the (discovered) Haydn Concerto in C Major
(in Toronto). Peter's Canadian premiers included Britten's Cello
Symphony, the Schoenberg/Monn Concerto and Penderecki's Sonata
for Cello and Orchestra. Peter was also a soloist under the baton
of Ancerl in both the Beethoven Triple Concerto and the Brahms
Double Concerto for the Beethoven and Brahms festivals that the
Toronto Symphony held at the end of their 1970 and 1973 seasons.
Upon leaving the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Peter worked as
a freelance musician. He performed at the Casals festival (including
three appearances as principal cellist in the late 1970s), for
three years as a member of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
Toronto
String
Quartet led by violinist Steven
STARYK, and as
a soloist with various chamber musicians performing throughout
North America (including performances with oboist Heinz Holliger).
Peter held positions with the Faculty of Music at the University
of Toronto, the Royal Conservatory of Music, and the National
Youth Orchestra of Canada. In 1985, at the invitation of Janos
Starker, he gave master classes in contemporary cello repertoire
for the Third Annual Cello Congress held in Bloomington, Indiana.
In addition to his playing career, Peter was active as a contractor
and orchestra manager for many musical activities, as well as
contracting hundreds of jingles and recording sessions. He put
together orchestras for many of the biggest film Composers of
the last twenty-five years from Maurice Jarre, Jerry Fielding,
John Barry and Georges-Delerue to, most recently, Howard Shore.
Peter managed the orchestra of the Canadian Opera Company and
for the last eleven years acted as musical contractor for Toronto's
Royal Alexandra and Princess of Wales Theatres, selecting and
running the orchestra for musicals such as "Les Miserables",
"Crazy For You" and the world premiere of "Jane Eyre". Peter
worked for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, hosting his
own show "The Art of the Collector", and writing program notes
for their festival of all of Brahms' chamber music in 1977. He
also worked for the Toronto radio station
CJRT as a guest host,
commentator, and reviewer. He is survived and lovingly remembered
by his wife
Holde
GERLACH, his sons Eric
SCHENKMAN and Daniel
Quarles SCHENKMAN, his daughter Jennifer
SCHENKMAN, and his grand_son
Wyllie SCHENKMAN. A visitation for family and close Friends will
be held for Peter at the Humphrey Funeral Home - A.W. Miles Chapel,
1403 Bayview Avenue (south of Eglinton Avenue East), on Monday
the 27th of February, 2006 from 7-9 p.m.
