PHELAN, Sister Mary Elizabeth, CSJ (Sister Alphonsus) - Sister Alphonsus passed away suddenly on December 28, 2007. She was in the 68th year of her religious life. Sister Alphonsus was born in Chapeau, Quebec a daughter of the late William Patrick and Annie Josephine (Carroll) Phelan. Left to mourn her loss and celebrate her life among us are her Sisters in the Congregation and her sisters Margaret (Joseph) Duquette of Chapeau and Kathleen (Clarence) Turner of Sudbury as well as her sister-in-law Katie Phelan of Pembroke and many nieces, nephews, grand-nieces, grand-nephews and cousins. She is predeceased by her brothers Philip and William. Early in her religious vocation she was assigned to help out at Villa St. Joseph (orphanage) in Renfrew until she was asked to minister in the hospital and Marian Home in Radville, Saskatchewan which she did for twenty-one years. In 1962 she graduated from the Grey Nuns' School of Nursing which led her to assignments as head of the O.R. in Barrhead, Alberta as well as nursing in Campbell's Bay and Grace Hospital in Ottawa. She saw a need for Pastoral Care in Radville Saskatchewan so she studied in this field and returned to the West to fulfill this ‘most satisfying and rewarding ministry.' She was the last Pembroke Sister to leave Regina in April of 1998. After her retirement she kept active in Pembroke, helping the elderly Sisters in her Community. She will be fondly remembered for her faithfulness to prayer and serving the Lord with her gifts. Sister Alphonsus treasured her religious vocation and was an inspiration to all who knew her. Visitation at St. Joseph's Motherhouse, Pembroke on Sunday, December 30, starting at 3:00 p.m. with a prayer service at 7:00 p.m. The funeral mass will be celebrated on Monday, December 31st, 10:30 a.m. at the Sisters of St. Joseph Motherhouse.

CHAMBERS, Robert (Bob) Ingram - aged 70 and formerly of Chatham, died Nov. 30 of an apparent heart attack at his home in St. Augustine, Fla., the community where he had been living for the last 25 years. Born in Winnipeg, Man., Nov. 28, 1937, he was the only son and eldest child of Clair L. and J. Estelle (Ingram) Chambers, who were also former Chatham residents. During his years in St. Augustine, Bob parlayed an outgoing personality, a quick, observant mind, and a gift for the visual arts into ECM Video Productions, a company he built from the ground up. In serving the local real estate and tourism industries as well as other commercial interests, he became well known and widely respected for the excellence of his work. A natural bonhomie allowed him to make friends easily. His formative years were spent in Winnipeg, Sudbury, Kirkland Lake, Moncton, and finally Halifax, where he rode as a member of the Halifax Junior Bengal Lancers, graduated from Queen Elizabeth High School and attended Dalhousie and Saint Mary's universities. The lure of the pool hall and other youthful distractions, however, set him on a non-academic path that eventually led to careers in broadcasting and video production. He got his start in radio in1962 at CFCO in Chatham, where he worked in advertising. From there he went to the United States, and joined a station in Columbus, Ohio. He married in 1971 and returned to Canada in 1972, bringing his young family to Toronto, where he worked briefly in photography and for a local radio station before going back to the United States in 1974. A number of station manager positions followed in places such as Thomson, Ga., and Statesville, Spartanburg, and Eden, N.C. In each venue he took stations that were in the red and brought them into the black. But the industry had changed; at the first sign of profit, new- style owners, with an eye on better investments, were eager to sell. So he switched gears in the 1980s and went to St. Augustine. There he worked as a tour guide and then as owner-operator of The Pelican Pub. He later used proceeds from the pub's sale to start his video company, for which he did all the shooting, scripting, narrating, editing and production. In all aspects of the business he was self-taught. While he lived most of his life in the United States, he proudly retained his Canadian citizenship. Other constants included a love of photography, music, and animals - especially dogs. In his youth, he was an enthusiastic guitar player and he occasionally performed with friends in a few nightspots. At his death, he was sharing his home with four dogs. He is survived by his wife of seven years, Sharon, St. Augustine, Fla.; his daughter and only child, Kelley Robyn, from a previous marriage to Nancy (Thurston) Chambers, both of Stone Mountain, Ga.; a sister, Elizabeth (Betsy) Clair, Halifax, N.S.; four first cousins: Leslie, Dartmouth, N.S.; Gordon, Victoria, B.C., and Thomas Cochrane and Patricia (Cochrane) Giera Siddall, both of Chatham, as well as long-time friend, Bob Smith, also of Chatham. Bob Chambers was predeceased by his parents in 2000. His body was cremated in St. Augustine. A memorial gathering of his friends will be held at his home, 1 p.m., Jan. 12, 2008. 10945307
