JURGENS,
Robert
John
In loving memory of a dear, sweet, kind and loving father and
grandfather, Robert, who passed away September 22, 2006.
We'll remember you with a smile today,
For a smile was always on your face.
We'll reflect on all the memories
Of all the happy years.
Recall to mind the way you spoke
And all the things you said.
Your strength, your whistle, the way you sang.
We'll remember the advice you gave us,
The example you set and your eyes that shone with laughter.
As we loved you, so we miss you
And long for you every day.
- Sadly missed by Kevin, Lesley, Sierra, Eric, Mariah and Alexis
TRAIN.

JURIST and grand_son
of Lola LEMAN and Judith

aunts, uncles, cousins and dear Friends. Michael was about to

in May from Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service, Georgetown
University, Washington, D.C., on the Dean's List with a B. Sc.
in Foreign Service, Major International Politics - Foreign Policy.
While at Georgetown University, Michael's successes were many
including an Advanced Certificate in European Studies, Member,
Pi Delta Phi (National French Honor Society), Member Phi Alpha
Theta (National History Honor Society) and Chair of Georgetown
University Lecture Fund in his last year of his 2003-2007 involvement.
It was the latter that piqued his interest in geopolitics and
stimulated his astute intellect. It was those times when Michael
would talk about some of the speakers - such as Senator Barack
Obama, King Abdullah of Jordan, Margaret MacMillan and actor
Robin Williams -- encountered through Georgetown and the Lecture
Fund that the normally calm composure would slip just for a moment
and the passion for thought and burgeoning beliefs would shine
through. Michael achieved Advanced Proficiency in French and
Intermediate Proficiency in Spanish; the former which he honed
during a six month interchange at Institut D'Etudes Politiques,
Lyon, France in 2006. His success at Georgetown University was
mirrored in his earlier formative years where he excelled at
Upper Canada College, Toronto, graduating in top 10 percent of
Class, International Baccalaureate Diploma. To focus only on
Michael's academic accomplishments would not reveal the fervent
essence of his shining spirit; the part of him we mourn the most
and the part that leaves the greatest vacuum in the lives of
those left behind. Michael's love of tennis and travel were in
fierce competition. His tennis skills earned him Accredited Tennis
Canada Coach status and led to summers coaching at Tournament
Park Tennis Club, Toronto, Matchpoint Academy, Mont Tremblant,
and Swarthmore Tennis Camp, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and playing
on Georgetown University Club Tennis, a nationally-ranked intercollegiate
team. His language proficiency and interest in international
affairs spurred his extensive global travel interests, most recently
a post graduation family trip to Dubrovnik and Tuscany. Michael's
perpetual intellectual curiosity always led to asking why; his
sense of adventure always asking why not; and a generosity of
spirit that gave effortlessly and with grace to everyone he encountered
along the short path that was his life. Michael Evan

Toronto Student Killed By Lightning In S.C.
By Associated Press and staff, Page S8
Hilton head Island, S.C. -- A Toronto man was struck and killed
by lightning on July 30 as he walked on the beach near the Sea
Pines resort on Hilton head Island.
Beaufort
County
Sheriff's Captain Bob Bromage said Michael
JURIST,
a former student at Upper Canada College who had just graduated
from university, was out for a walk with his mother, Vesna
JURIST,
when a thunderstorm suddenly developed about 5 p.m.
"They started to head back when they saw the storm coming," Joheida
Fister of Hilton head Island Fire and Rescue Division told The
Beaufort Gazette. "I guess it came too quickly."
The two turned back for their summer home in Sea Pines only to
be knocked off their feet by a bolt of lightning. A beach patrol
boat that happened to be out searching for a missing swimmer
was alerted and radioed for help. Two lifeguards arrived within
minutes and performed cardio-pulmonary resuscitation on Mr.
JURIST.
He was taken to a hospital, where he died. He was 22.
Mrs. JURIST was also hurt but her injuries were not life-threatening.
Mr. JURIST was an only child who graduated from Upper Canada
College in 2003 and then enrolled at Georgetown University in
Washington. He graduated this spring. A memorial service will
be held at Upper Canada College on at 6 p.m. on August 7.

Lightning-strike victim was promising young man
By Siri AGRELL,
Page L2
In March, Michael
JURIST told a campus paper at Georgetown University
that he had been impressed by visiting Nobel Peace Prize winner
Mohammad Yunus.
"It was inspiring because he was humble," he said of the economist's
address.
This week, Friends of the 22-year-old Toronto man described Mr.
JURIST
in similar terms following his sudden death. He was struck by
lightning last week near his family's vacation home in Hilton
Head, S.C.
Accomplished, attractive and intelligent, Mr.
JURIST was described
most often by those who knew him as being humble, an uncommon
virtue in the realm of tony private schools, Ivy League colleges
and job offers in New York and London to which Mr.
JURIST had
propelled himself.
A recent graduate of Georgetown's Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign
Service living in New York, Mr.
JURIST was an only child, raised
in Toronto by his parents Paul and Vesna. His mother, who was
walking with him on the beach, was also hit by the lightning
strike but did not suffer serious physical injuries.
"They started to head back when they saw the storm coming," Joheida
Fister, a spokeswoman for the Town of Hilton head Island Fire and
Rescue Division, told the local media. "I guess it came too quickly."
Mr. JURIST attended Upper Canada College, where he played tennis
and was elected by his peers as the head of McHugh House.
At university in Washington, D.C., he volunteered with the Corp,
a non-profit campus corporation that provides students with low-cost
goods and services, and acted as chairman of Georgetown's lecture
fund, where he brought high-profile speakers to campus.
Last October, he was called upon to soothe the student outcry
sparked by the impending address of a controversial guest, Chris
Simcox, president of the Minutemen Civil Defense Corps, an anti-immigration
group.
"I recognize that he's a controversial figure and that some people
may have a problem with him. But his group has played a major
role in the mainstream," Mr.
JURIST told the campus newspaper
at the time. "And I hope everyone respects our rights to bring
someone who represents another side of the debate."
It was this passionate, measured intelligence that was most remarkable
to his Friends and school mates.
"You hear it so often when there's a tragedy like this, that
it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, but there's not too
many guys out there that were nicer than him," said Mike
ANNECCHINI,
a Toronto resident who went to Upper Canada College with Mr.
JURIST
and described his former classmate as a natural leader.
When Mr. ANNECCHINI lost the position of head of house to Mr.
JURIST,
he remembers his friend, the immensely popular, athletic student
who would ace his Scholastic Assessment Tests and pass up admission
to Harvard, telling him bashfully: "You really should have got
it."
On Facebook, hundreds of Friends of the Toronto man formed mourning
groups and planned gatherings in New York and Washington to pay
tribute to his memory.
In Toronto, a memorial will be held at Upper Canada College's
Laidlaw Hall tonight at 6 p.m.
John BITOVE, a former neighbour of the
JURIST family, said his
sons, 19 and 17, are devastated by the loss of their childhood
playmate.
"He was a great role model for my two boys," he said. "He was
just a very well-mannered, respectful, wonderful child. The model
child."
