O'BRIEN,
Brendan, Q.C., L.S.M.
Peacefully at home in Dundas, Ontario, on July 13, 2007. Lovingly
remembered by Beverley, his wife of 44 years, and his children
Susie and Duncan, and their families Peter, Bridget, Thomas and
Jamie MOUNTFORD,
Marita and Josie and Brendan
O'BRIEN. Brendan
will also be greatly missed by his sister Geraldine (Charles
BRADY) and many nieces and nephews. Brendan was pre-deceased
by his parents, Florence
(MILEY) and Donel, and by siblings Charles,
Eileen (PHELAN), Laureen
(WEILER), Edward, Miley, Elizabeth (Betty
McGOEY,) and George. Brendan was born in 1909 in Toronto, and
raised in Dixie, Ontario. He spent 96 of his 98 summers on Lake
Joseph, most of those on his beloved Burnt Island. He had a long
and distinguished career as a lawyer in Toronto, beginning as
a junior with the firm of Phelan and Richardson after being called
to the bar in 1932. He eventually became senior partner, before
the firm merged with Aylesworth Thompson in 1986. He taught at
Osgoode Law School in the 1950s and in the Bar Admission Course
until 1959. In 1966 he was elected Treasurer of the Law Society
of Upper Canada. During his term he made significant contributions,
including outlining a plan which would eventually become the
basis for the Law Foundation of Ontario. He remained an active
participant of Convocation until the age of 96. In 2005 he received
the Law Society Medal for his many contributions to the province's
justice system. In 1979 Brendan became the first president of
the Osgoode Society. His passionate interest in history inspired
his authorship of two books, Speedy Justice (1992), and The Prettiest
Spot in Muskoka (1999). A private family funeral will be held
on Tuesday July 17, 2007 at Cattel, Eaton and Chambers Funeral
Home, 53 Main Street, Dundas. Cremation has taken place. In lieu
of flowers, donations to the Victorian Order of Nurses would
be appreciated. www.catteleatonandchambers.ca
