Show n' shine chairperson remembered as 'family-man' - High River Times

Garret Broer, but his loved ones remember the happy-go-lucky family man’s love for vehicles and the selfless help he provided to others. Garret, 50, passed away after a motorcycle accident outside Vulcan on Aug. 13. While many knew him as the event chairperson for the River City Classics Car Club’s annual show ‘n shine, his brother Maurice regarded him as a person who brought others closer together. “He was the glue of the family,” he said. “He held all kinds of people together, not just (our) family. If things were going wrong, something was up...he would always be there to make sure it was right.” Garret’s main volunteer effort was through the High River car club, according to his other brother Andrew. It was his enthusiasm for cars and his 1966 Chevelle that made him proud to take part, he said. After his passing, Andrew noted he will remember Garret for his assistance provided to others, either vehicle mechanics work or other handyman skills, and his great love for family and friends. “(Garret) was always there for my Mom and Dad, phoned them every day,” Andrew said. “No questions asked. He phoned my sister every morning to see how she was doing.” He said it’s his job to continue in his late brothers’ footsteps, to ensure everyone continues to have fun and that Garret’s wife,...

Councillors approve South Asian funeral home, crematorium in Etobicoke - insideTORONTO.com

Lassonde trucks shuttle product between the company’s production facility at nearby 95 Vulcan St. and its warehouse at 105 City View Dr. at a rate of four per hour, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, he said. Lassonde’s truck distribution has ground to a halt before, said Alex Tziorteis, the company’s production manager. “We’ve had several occasions where weddings were taking place at a nearby hotel and our trucks were not able to pull out or pull in because of where guests of the hotel were parked (on the street),” Tziorteis told councillors, noting he was unsuccessful in gaining hotel administration’s assistance to identify the guests and to have the vehicles moved. However, Gervais said he was not opposed to the project if controls could be enforced on the facility’s parking and emissions. Parkdale-High Park Councillor Sarah Doucette looked up Lassonde’s addresses on Google Street View. She said she could not see any parking prohibition signs on the streets where Lassonde operates its facilities. Existing parking regulations on the streets could be reviewed, city transportation staff said when asked by Doucette. Holyday drafted a motion, endorsed by councillors, stating community council would request the Etobicoke York district’s transportation services director to report back with a review of existing parking regulations in the area of the property “to improve traffic flow and support neighbouring business operations, including the construction of no parking, no stopping, no standing, and tow-away signage.” Neil Cresswell, director of community planning with Etobicoke York district, explained the Ontario government, through the Ministry of the Environment, is “the ruling and governing body” with respect to emissions and environmental standards related to the proposed crematorium’s operation. The matter goes before Toronto City Council next month. Let's block ads! (Why?)...

Clark Davey, 1928-2019: 'The true journalist of journalists' - Ottawa Citizen

He was heartbroken after failing his medical, but an English teacher told him that people would pay him to write. So he enrolled in the first journalism degree course taught at University of Western Ontario, graduating in 1948 and joining the newsroom of the Chatham Daily News.There, he worked under Richard "Dic" Doyle, but moved to Kirkland Lake when the Thomson newspaper chain made him editor-in-chief of the Northern Daily News. His time there was brief, however, as his girlfriend, Joyce Gordon, issued him an ultimatum: Northern Ontario or me. He chose her: they married in September 1952.In the meantime, he joined the newsroom of the Globe and Mail, where his mentor Doyle had been working for a year.As a reporter with the Globe, Davey covered national and international affairs, including the Suez Canal crisis, the St. Lawrence Seaway project and the cancellation of the Avro Arrow program. During the 1957 federal election campaign, he recognized that Tory leader John Diefenbaker was gaining momentum and might actually win, and convinced his editors to allow him to stay with the Chief's campaign for 40 days. Clark Davey, former publisher of the Montreal Gazette, displaying a mock-up of the paper's new Sunday edition in 1988. Bill Grimshaw / The Canadian Press When Doyle became editor of the Globe in 1963, he chose Davey as his managing editor, and, according to Mills, the two raised the broadsheet's reputation from that of a local paper to a national one. Davey was managing editor for 15 years before joining the Vancouver Sun in 1978. He was publisher there until 1983, when he took over at the Gazette. He was publisher of the Citizen from 1989 to 1993. He was also president and chair of The Canadian Press, and co-founder and president of the Michener Awards Foundation that oversees the country's most prestigious journalism prize."He was the true journalist of journalists," says Kim Kierans, journalism professor at University of King's College in Halifax and Michener Foundation board member. "He told me when I last saw him in November, ‘If we're not providing the encouragement for journalism organizations and journalists within them to do the journalism that matters, then we're in trouble as a democracy.'"He was also a lovely man, smart and sparkling … with incredible enthusiasm for the business and its future."According to Mills, Davey, who in 2002 led a protest on the steps of the Ottawa Citizen after Mills was fired for running an editorial critical of then-prime minister Jean Chrétien, was known as tough and gruff, "but deep down he was a really kind and thoughtful person, and a very good friend who was always fair to people. But if you didn't know him, he could be intimidating."And although he called the shots on the job, it was Joyce who ruled the home roost. According to son Ric, his father only stopped the presses twice - once while at the Globe, when Joyce called him to report that she and Ric thought they had just seen a UFO."That was the kind of pull she had over him," says Ric.Clark Davey is survived by his wife, Joyce; brother Kenneth George; children Ric (Rita Celli), Kevin (Margaret) and Clark Jr. (...
