SCHACHTER,
Doctor
Ricky (née
KANEE) (1918-2007)
Healer, educator, innovator and advocate for the rights of women,
Jews and people in need, passed away peacefully on July 1st following
a prolonged illness during which she was constantly surrounded
by the love of her family and Friends. We thank the staff at
the Toronto Western and Baycrest Hospitals for their compassion
and exemplary care. Our special thanks to the caregivers Naty,
Lota, and Erwina. Doctor Ricky
SCHACHTER had a long, productive
and fulfilling life. Beloved wife of the late Doctor Benjamin
SCHACHTER
dear mother and mother-in-law of Doctor Daniel and Anya
SCHACHTER,
and Bonnie and Peter
DRUXERMAN; adoring grandmother of Reva and
Jonathan SCHACHTER, and Jessie and Cobi
DRUXERMAN; and loving
aunt to all of her nieces and nephews. Predeceased by her parents,
Rose and Sam
KANEE, and her brothers Abe, Doctor Ben, Sol, and Harry
who died at an early age. Raised in Melville, Saskatchewan, Ricky
was the daughter of self-educated immigrants, who instilled in
her the value of education. She put herself through the universities
of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, and through medical school at University
of Toronto in the early 1940's, later following in her older
brother's footsteps to specialize in dermatology at Columbia
University in New York, becoming a Fellow of the Royal College
in 1950. Ricky settled with her husband, a biochemist, in Toronto
where they raised their family. Doctor Ricky, as she preferred to
be called, spent every day of her career fighting for equality
and patient care, opening many doors for women in her discipline
and pioneering new techniques for treating chronic dermatological
conditions such as psoriasis and scleroderma. Her hard work,
energy and devotion earned her many distinctions, including the
Award of Merit from the Federation of Medical Women of Canada,
the Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal, the Order of Canada, the Canadian
Dermatology Association Practioner of the Year Award and an honorary
doctorate from Queen's University, but she always listed family
on her CV as her most important contribution. She has been honoured
for her contributions by medical associations from Ontario to
Poland. Doctor
SCHACHTER took great pride in her achievements, and
continued working tirelessly for the benefit of her patients
until she became ill in 2006. Doctor
SCHACHTER will be sorely missed
by her family, Friends, colleagues, students and patients. Her
funeral will be held on Tuesday, July 3, 2007 at 2: 00 p.m. at
Beth Tzedec Synagogue, 1700 Bathurst Street. Interment will follow
at Beth Tzedec Memorial Park, 5822 Bathurst Street. In lieu of
flowers, donations may be made to the Ricky Kanee Schachter Memorial
Fund c/o the Benjamin Foundation, 3429 Bathurst Street, Toronto,

SCHACHTER o@ca.on.york_county.toronto.globe_and_mail 2007-07-21 published
Canada's pre-eminent dermatologist refused to take no for an
answer
She overcame the twin 'congenital anomalies' of being a Jew and
a woman by entering medical school and becoming the country's
best skin specialist
By Ron CSILLAG,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S10
Toronto -- She was a mere slip - a hair over five feet tall,
maybe 50 kilos - from a small Prairie town in the middle of nowhere,
and was once told she suffered from two "congenital anomalies"
that ensured her failure. Even so, people who knew Doctor Ricky
Kanee SCHACHTER somehow lose their inhibitions when they describe
her (not in so many words) as having had balls. She didn't just
open doors for women in medicine, she kicked them down.
Diminutive in physical stature, a giant in her field and the
definition of moxie, Doctor
SCHACHTER was among Canada's pre-eminent
dermatologists, and tallied several firsts: She was the first
woman to head an academic division of dermatology in Canada,
the first female president of the Canadian Dermatology Association
(thus the first woman in Canada to lead specialists in her field)
and was the first female to win the Canadian Dermatology Foundation's
Practitioner of the Year award, in 2005.
As a woman and a Jew, she overcame tremendous obstacles at a
time when being either, never mind both, meant that higher education
was difficult, if attainable at all. But "these men and their
rules," as she once put it, were not going to stand in her way.
She became more determined than ever to become a doctor.
Her stunning success meant breakthroughs in the treatment of
her specialties, scleroderma and psoriasis. In 1976, Doctor
SCHACHTER
established the Psoriasis Education and Research Centre, renamed
four years ago the Phototherapy Education and Research Centre
at Women's College Hospital in Toronto, the first of its kind
in Canada.
Believing she could improve psoriasis sufferers' quality of life
on an out-patient basis - that people were more or less capable
of taking care of themselves - she first had to convince Ontario's
Health Ministry that ambulatory care was more cost-effective
than keeping patients in hospital. Her son, Doctor Daniel
SCHACHTER,
also a dermatologist, said her vision was to provide treatment
that did not disrupt patients' daily lives and which stressed
self-care - years before the concept existed. The facility remains
one of the largest centres of its kind in Canada, and treats
about 30,000 visitors annually. It has revolutionized the way
some chronic skin diseases are treated.
"She empowered nurses in a way they were never empowered before
to become not only caregivers but educators," noted Doctor Neil
SHEAR, professor of dermatology at the University of Toronto.
"She designed a clinic where people take responsibility for their
own care. That has a huge impact on patient outcome.
"Ricky was not only the right person, but in the right place
to really deliver a model of care that, even 30 years later,
is still innovative and cutting-edge."
In 1991, the Ricky Kanee Schachter Dermatology Centre was opened
at Women's College Hospital to treat and educate ambulatory patients,
after six years of fundraising. (Her reaction to the campaign's
establishment: "I thought I'd faint. I'm basically a shy person.")
Shy maybe, but definitely dogged, a trait acquired from her immigrant
parents - Russian father, Sam, and Austro-Hungarian mother, Rose
- who came to Canada to escape the anti-Semitism of Europe. They
had six children - the first died in childbirth - with Ricky
their only daughter.
Sam KANEE had arrived in 1903 to work on the Canadian Pacific
Railway. He settled in Melville, Saskatchewan., opened a general
store and eventually went into the grain business to establish
the successful Soo Line Mills.
Young Ricky had two role models as a child: her old brother Ben,
who went to Columbia University to study dermatology, and her
mother, who lovingly tended Ricky's younger brother Harry, who
had cerebral palsy. Harry, who died at 16 of chicken pox, couldn't
speak, and Rose
KANEE taught him to communicate through magazine
pictures.
Her other brothers were no slouches: Abe
KANEE was an executive
with Soo Line Mills. Sol
KANEE, who died in April, practised
law in Melville and was a former president of the Canadian Jewish
Congress. He also formed the first small-loans bank, served on
the board of the Bank of Canada longer than anyone and founded
the Royal Winnipeg Ballet.
Ricky, meantime, had skipped several grades, graduated from high
school at 14, and announced her plans for university. Her father,
an otherwise progressive man, countered that she would be taking
up a place for a man, and wanted his daughter to get married
and start a family. Ricky threatened that she would never get
married until she had a university education. Her father scraped
together the money.
She enrolled at the University of Manitoba, where she had her
first encounter with anti-Semitism - an "awakening," as she put
it in a 1995 published interview. "There was a sign in the women's
locker room: 'You Jews have taken over Winnipeg Beach but we
don't want you in our locker room.' " She transferred to the
University of Saskatchewan where the dean informed her that all
the universities in Canada, except in Halifax, had filled their
quota of Jews. Six weeks before her final exams, despite being
among the top three students, she was told she had to take an
IQ test. She refused. Then she was told she couldn't graduate
because she lacked a credit in physical education. "So while
everybody else was studying, I learned how to swim."
She completed two years in one and, armed with a degree in science
(and a swimming badge), she set out for medical school at the
University of Toronto. In her only interview with the dean of
medicine she was told there was no place for her because she
had two congenital anomalies: She was a woman and Jewish.
"What a silly man," she recalled. "I don't think I ever spoke
to him again. He didn't know how I felt about medicine. He didn't
know how hard my parents worked to send me to university. He
didn't know about my brother Ben. And he didn't know I had already
been accepted at U of T."
In 1942, she married Benjamin
SCHACHTER, a University of Toronto
biochemist who was researching female sexual hormones, and graduated
the following year. That was followed by two years of postgraduate
training in dermatology at Columbia University in New York. Her
association with Women's College Hospital began in 1946, and
in 1961 she was appointed associate professor in the University
of Toronto's faculty of medicine.
She challenged tradition, her grand_son Jonathan, 23, eulogized
at her funeral. One of her patients, a nun, had developed a scalp
condition from her veil, so in 1959, she wrote the Pope to complain
about the dress code for nuns. "Boba got a response, though not
from the Pope directly, granting permission for the nun to dress
appropriately to cure her condition." A few years later, Jonathan
added, the dress code for nuns was relaxed amid other reforms
of the Second Vatican Council. "She was by no means an ordinary
grandmother, nor an ordinary Jew or woman for that matter, but
she was a fiercely driven person who could do whatever she wanted."
That didn't mean she was hard. Health care, poverty and the disparity
between rich and poor were her greatest concerns, and her family
her greatest love (the names of her children and grandchildren
are on page one of a 24-page curriculum vitae).
"I learned so much from how she practised, how she handled patients
[and] got to know them all exceedingly well," said Doctor Vera
PRICE,
who'd been a teenaged patient of Doctor
SCHACHTER's, and later shared
her practice.
"To this day I insist that all my residents and fellows get to
know who they're treating. You have to know how to relate to
them… I certainly got this from her," added Doctor
PRICE, who now
teaches medicine at the University of California in San Francisco.
"[Patients] knew she loved them. She could be very strict and
not mince her words, but the tremendous caring was there."
Among her many honours were the 1994 Award of Merit from the
Federation of Medical Women of Canada, a 1995 award from the
Women's Dermatologic Society, and in 1998, induction into the
Order of Canada.
She retired several times, beginning in 1985, and stepped down
from teaching when she reached 65. "No problem," she pronounced
in 1995. "I just haven't accepted any salary for teaching the
past 11 years."
Asked once about the best advice she ever received, she replied:
"Don't take no for an answer - and I have passed it on to many
people."
Ricky Kanee
SCHACHTER was born in Melville, Saskatchewan., on
December 23, 1918. She died in Toronto on July 1, 2007. She was
88. Her husband, Benjamin
SCHACHTER, died in 2001. She is survived
by her children, Doctor Daniel
SCHACHTER and Bonnie
DRUXERMAN.
She
also leaves grandchildren Reva, Jonathan, Jesse and Cobi.

SCHAEFER,
Theodore
Peter "
Ted," C.M., D.Phil., D.Sc., F.R.S.C.
On September 15th, 2007 at his home, Ted slipped away quietly
(as was his custom at social gatherings) after a brief illness
which he faced with courage and grace. Predeceased by his parents
and by his sisters Lily and Irma, Ted is survived by his brother
Wilf, sister-in-law Ann, brothers-in-law John and Jake, his wife
Nicola, daughter Catherine, sons Dominic and Ben, and a multi-generational
flock of nieces and nephews. An academic, Ted's trajectory as
a scientist was an interesting one. As he himself noted in a
1997 article in the Encyclopedia of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance,
he 'was born in a depression-ridden pioneer village [Gnadenthal]
which lacked most physical amenities, even roads. Nevertheless,
a good basic education was available and was followed by a sound
training in the classical aspects of chemistry at the University
of Manitoba.' Following completion of a Masters degree, Ted went
to Oxford University on a Shell scholarship and, taking time
off from his studies occasionally to play on the ice hockey team,
subsequently received his D.Phil. He then returned to Winnipeg
to accept a faculty position in the Chemistry Department at the
U. of M. During his 40-year career at the University, Ted established
and directed an active research program in nuclear magnetic resonance
spectroscopy. Research fellows and some 30 graduate students
(many of whom received doctoral degrees) participated in this
work and now occupy university positions across the country and
beyond. The excellence of Ted's research - which led to over
300 publications - earned him numerous scientific awards and
honours, including a Fellowship in the Royal Society of Canada.
Ted was a superb teacher and mentor of both undergraduate and
graduate students and in 1980 received the annual teaching award
from the Graduate Students Association. Throughout his career,
he provided outstanding support to his students, his colleagues,
the U. of M. and the Chemistry profession in Canada. His scientific
excellence was recognized by an honorary D. Sc. From the University
of Winnipeg in 1982, and an appointment as a Member of the Order
of Canada in 2003. At the time of his retirement in 1997, he
was Distinguished Professor at the U. of M. Chemistry Department.
Ted enjoyed his decade of retirement. Energetic physically, he
walked miles each day wearing a variety of hats - literally,
not figuratively - to protect his head from the elements. Equally
vigorous mentally, and a life-long reader and thinker, he appreciated
having time to immerse himself in subjects such as English and
German literature, history, science and philosophy. And he enjoyed
nothing more than an evening of intellectual sparring with Friends
over a beer or two (or more). Deep gratitude to the folks at
Hospice and Palliative Care Manitoba, who helped Ted's family
avoid his being hospitalized. Many thanks, also, to family members,
Friends, neighbours and colleagues for their constant support
during Ted's illness. At Ted's request, cremation has taken place
and there will be no service. However, a celebration of his life
will be held, probably at the U. of M., in the spring of 2008.

Hunting camp blaze leaves three dead
By Sun Media News Services, Mon., August 13, 2007
Haliburton -- Three Minden men are dead following a fire that
destroyed a remote hunting camp.
Ontario Provincial Police and more than 20 volunteer firefighters
rode all-terrain vehicles through a rough and rocky trail Saturday
to reach the camp near Haliburton, about 200 kilometres northeast
of Toronto.
"There was virtually (no fire) to knock down by the time we got
there," said Capt. Dan
STIVER of Algonquin Fire Services.
The fire was reported after three other people escaped.
The blaze broke out about 5 a.m. Saturday at the camp on Third
Lake near Stanhope Township, about 200 kilometres northeast of
Toronto.
The blaze is being investigated by the Ontario Fire Marshal's
Office.
Minden's fire Chief Doug
SCHELL said he knew the men pretty well
and it has hit the "community pretty hard."
One of the victims, said
SCHELL, was Jerry
COOPER -- a barber
who worked on the Main Street in Minden and had just recently
retired -- while another worked for the township.
"We were called out and helped Algonquin Highland fire department
and provided them with an all-terrain vehicle to get in to the
camp," SCHELL said.
Shaun CHAMBERLIN, owner of the Grill on the Gull restaurant,
said "it has been a terrible tragedy for the whole community
up here."
"Most of us own hunt camps and it really hits home,"
CHAMBERLIN
said.
Autopsies will be conducted today.
