Funeral Friday for sportswear firm founder - Brantford Expositor

When the building burned down, the business was moved to the family's home in Falkland. A local and national supplier of textiles, sporting goods and uniforms, Darby Sportswear is now at 100 Dundas St. E. in Paris and celebrating its 50th anniversary. Mr. Sevier is also the founder of the Falkland Gamebird and Fish Hatchery, which he created on the site of a former gravel pit. The hatchery, now closed, raised rainbow trout, small and large mouth bass and pheasants for stocking, conservation, consumption and recreation. Mr. Sevier is survived by wife, Karen, and children, Tommy, Becky, Margaret, Shawn, Andy and Jessie. He has 10 grandchildren. Andy Sevier noted that the hatchery offered a program called Fish'n Friends. "It was a catered event for individuals with special needs," he said. "It gave them the opportunity to experience fishing." He said his father loved collectible cars, especially Corvettes. "He loved working on the cars that he owned, as well as restoring older ones." Mr. Sevier was a regular at the Cruise Night car shows held at Johnny Be Good Diner in Paris. A former member of the Kinsmen Club of Brantford, Mr. Sevier enjoyed spending time with friends at a hunting lodge and restoring antique tube radios. "He was a hard worker, the kind of man who always liked to keep busy," Andy Sevier said. "When he wasn't busy, he'd sit on the back porch overlooking the (Falkland) property and reminisce about what it looked like before he put in all that work." Andy Sevier said his father had a big heart and made sure everyone at work and in his personal life felt appreciated. "One thing I'll always remember is one of his ...

Egerton Ryerson doesn't deserve an anti-Indigenous label - The Globe and Mail

As his educational model, he favoured the respected Hofwyl School for the Poor near Berne, Switzerland.Jones and Ryerson were true friends, perhaps best described as “blood brothers.” Toronto’s Dundas Square borders Victoria Street. The site ofRyerson’s home 150 years ago is located toward the eastern end of the urban park. Its actual site is now under Dundas Street East.Ryerson welcomed Mr. Jones and his wife to stay with his family for a month in the spring of 1856 while Ryerson sought the best medical advice to restore Jones’s health. After the attempt to find a cure failed, Jones returned to his home in Brantford, where he died two weeks later. As Jones had requested while he stayed at the Ryerson’s that spring, Ryerson gave the eulogy at his funeral on July 1, 1856.To describe Egerton Ryerson, or Chechalk as the Mississauga called him, as anti-Indigenous misses the mark.

Families 'devastated' after graves desecrated by cemetery staff - CBC.ca

A grave at Forest Lawn Cemetery in London, Ont. that's been partially covered with mud in the shape of tire from what families say is a lawn tractor that's been damaging a number of graves on the Dundas Street and Clarke Road property. (Katie Dean/Facebook)"I too own a plot out there," she said, noting her family has been doing business with Forest Lawn since the 1970s. "After my daughter died my mother bought me a plot and now I don't even want it.""Everybody in our city is going to die, somebody they love is going to die" she said. "You want to bury them some place where you can feel peaceful, that the plot is going to be taken care of, and for them to roll over those plots and damage them with tractors is just unacceptable." Company response"The damage to any of the monuments is very unfortunate," Dustin Wright, the spokesman for Abor Memorial, the company that owns Forest Lawn Funeral Home and Cemetary in London, told CBC News Friday. "With each of these situations, whenever the families have brought it to our attention, we have immediately addressed it.""In all of these cases, we want to do right for the families and we believe we do this every day," Wright said."So if ever there's a situation where a family member feels as though they are not receiving the kind of response, empathy, treatment they want, so we can address it right away. It is definitely not the feeling we want them to have." If families still aren't satisfied, they can also contact the Bereavement Authority of Ontario, the provincial regulator in charge of Ontario's death industry. Let's block ads!

‘Write me soon. Stay safe’: A story of Canada’s opioid crisis, told in letters from prison - The Globe and Mail

At her home in Guelph, Ont., Moira Barber lays out one of the letters between her common-law husband, Albert (Manie) Daniels, and Spencer Kell, his old cellmate at Ontario's Maplehurst prison. Tijana Martin/The Globe and Mail When Spencer Kell got out of jail last spring, leaving his cellmate Manie Daniels behind, the two friends started exchanging letters. Mr. Daniels's, written in flowing cursive script, came to Mr. Kell in Ottawa, where he was trying to stay clean and build a new life. Mr. Kell's, in bold block letters, arrived at Maplehurst prison in Milton, Ont., where Mr. Daniels was serving out the final months of his latest stretch behind bars. Their brief correspondence shines a light on the dangers that former prisoners face in the midst of Canada's opioids crisis. Mr. Daniels's full name was Albert Joseph Daniels. His Cree name was Little Buffalo that Runs Against the Herd. His mother and sisters called him Manie – little man – because he was the only boy in the family. Story continues below advertisement He was torn away from his home on Saskatchewan's Peepeekisis First Nation to be educated in church-run res...
