SELLAR, Gloria 1926 - 2008 On Thursday, November 6, Gloria died suddenly and peacefully of cancer at Kingston General Hospital. Born in Calgary, her major influence was a Grandmother who taught her how to: do carpentry, raise chickens, teach herself music and painting, cater large banquets and love animal husbandry. While riding in the foothills, she met a handsome young fellow who, within a few months mailed her a marriage proposal for a wedding after his graduation from Royal Military College and just before his departure for the war. The wedding (immediately after her 17th birthday) began a 62 year partnership with Gordon Sellar. Gloria spent the war driving 18 wheeler trucks on the Alaska Highway, singing and dancing for troops in the Birks Jewellers Show, and, like most other girls, waiting and praying. Gordon returned and, except for his time in the Korean War, they were never apart. Gloria became a home maker and supporter of his career moving regularly around Canada, to Great Britain, Europe and Ghana. She maintained an active, engaged life raising three children, acting in community theatre, fund raising for the cancer society, riding, volunteering and painting. In 1979, the arrival of a pack of English Fox Hounds and five horses at their Kingston farm dominated her life for most of the next 25 years. Gloria loved the animals and tended the hounds like a mother. The Frontenac Hunt Hound Pack was nurtured into one of the finest in North America with many prizes and championship hounds. Gloria became a joint Master of the Hunt and continued judging hound shows for the Masters of Fox Hounds North American Association until 2008. Brigadier-General Gordon Sellar died from the tactical use of Agent Orange in 2004. In his honour, Gloria, on her own, aggressively pursued recognition for the many veterans whose lives were also profoundly affected by Agent Orange. Within weeks, she gained national attention - newspaper chains, CBC, CTV, BBC, and NBC joined in. Sitting on the resulting ministerial study group, she oversaw the ultimate compensation process for her vets. As an Honorary Member of the Black Watch Association, she continued to help sick veterans while she dealt with her own illness. Gloria is survived by daughter Susan Rahn (husband Jim and Emily), son Rodney Sellar (wife Dawn and Madison) and daughter Robin Sellar (sons Adrian and Sean). Her wish was cremation. A memorial service is planned at the Royal Military College Chapel, Kingston, for 11:00 AM, Saturday, November 29. A reception and light lunch will follow at the mess. Donations to the cancer society in lieu of flowers would be appreciated. For details contact Susan Rahn at 613-230-8840 or jimrahn@rogers.com. A storybook life, well lived. Many people will miss her.

BIANCO, Franco December 5, 1963 - November 9, 2007 In loving memory of a dear husband and father who passed away a year ago. If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane, we would walk right up to heaven, and bring you back again. No farewell words were spoken, no time to say goodbye you were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why. Our hearts will ache in sadness, and secret tears will flow; what it meant to lose you, no one can ever know. Since you'll never be forgotten we pledge to you today, a hallowed place within our hearts is where you'll always stay. Missing you, with love forever, - Gina, Lisa and Carmine. A mass in memory of Franco will be held at St. Anthony's Church, Booth St. Monday, November 10, 2008 at 7:00 pm. We wish to thank family and friends for all their love and support.

HART, Anne (Ryan) R.N. I am her son Michael. Anne Hart passed away on October 31st, 2008 in her sleep at the Royal Victoria Hospital peacefully. She was also my friend, had many other good friends and she will be missed by not only them but also by many others. Anne was really a fine and good woman who was gracious and admired. She went to the hospital for a simple procedure, came through with flying colors and then became gravely ill, fighting a battle for her life. This was not expected and should not have been a burden she had to overcome. She had her faith which was very important to her and she fought to live. Anne Hart was finally unable to cope and died with dignity and peacefully. She is survived by her older brother James Ryan living in Alberta, sister Adeline Ryan in Pembroke, Ontario along with her son Douglas and his family in B.C. Thank you for giving so much and we all love you more for this and will not forget. Funeral at St. Piux V in Osceola, Ontario November 13th, 2008 at 11 AM.

KNIGHT, Rose Rose slipped away suddenly on November 2, 2008 at the age of 86. She was one of the "Rosies of the North", who supported the Allied effort during WWII by working at the Canada Car in Fort William, Ontario. There she met and married her husband, Denis Knight, C.A., and together they shared life's adventures for fifty-two years. Loving mother of Sandra and numerous friends "adopted" over the years. Rose lived every day fully and thankfully. She enjoyed an active and rewarding life, enriching the lives of those who knew her. Her empathy, affection, easy conversation and sense of humour endeared her to all she met, especially Milica Petrovic and Marica Vreca who took such loving care of her during her final months. Sincere thanks to Margaret Griffiths, and the staff at St. Patrick's Home who provided support, comfort and compassionate care during this difficult journey. Rose will be sorely missed by her sister and brother-in-law, Anizia and Waldo Milligan, Newmarket, Ontario, as well as several nieces, nephews and cousins in Newmarket and Kenora. She will be fondly remembered by friends in Winnipeg, Vancouver and Thunder Bay, as well as the Palisades and Edinburgh Retirement Residences.

McINNIS, Corinne Marie (nee Connor) October 22, 1925 to November 5, 2008 Peacefully, after a brief but difficult struggle with leukemia, on Wednesday, November 5. Beloved wife of Charles, mother of Everett (Linda Atkinson), Celia, Nadine (Tim Fairbairn) and Charles (Delphine Mercier), grandmother of Nadia Fairbairn, Owen Fairbairn and Sarah Charlotte McInnis. Corinne was born in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia where her father built and owned the Savoy Theatre. Her precocious musical ability brought her to the Toronto Conservatory of Music where, as she liked to say, she began her piano studies with renowned teacher Alberto Guerrero, "one year ahead of Glenn Gould, and finished one year behind", receiving her ARCT in 1947. She returned to Glace Bay where she taught piano, was church organist at St. Anne's Catholic Church, and played piano duos on CBC radio in Nova Scotia before marrying Charles in 1953. Although the family moved often before settling in Ottawa, Corinne always taught in her home, fostering a love of music in more than 500 pupils over 60 years. She continued to teach until her death, and maintained her ability to play her much loved repertoire of Beethoven and Schubert sonatas into her eighties. She is survived by one sister, Audrey Chiasson. All who knew her will miss her dark wit, which even her illness could not diminish. Friends are invited to attend a Memorial Service at the St. Laurent Chapel of Hulse, Playfair & McGarry, 1200 Ogilvie Road (at Aviation Parkway) on Saturday, November 15 at 1 pm. Reception to follow. For those wishing, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society would be appreciated. Published in the Ottawa Citizen from 11/8/2008- 11/13/2008
