Brian was one of four siblings; Alan being the eldest; Brian next in line; sister, Barbara Ann, and young brother David. Alan, who resides in Scunthorpe, England, is the only surviving sibling.

Brian attended the local junior school in Scunthorpe then entered Technical School at the young age of eleven. At the age of sixteen he apprenticed in the steel industry as a roll turner, a profession he carried on when he immigrated to Canada in 1966 with his first wife, Shirley, and his young son, Richard. Brian worked for Algoma Steel in Sault Ste Marie as a roll turner for twenty-five years, retiring in 1991.

In England Brian served in the Royal Air Force for two years and during that time he was a radio operator on a remote Scottish island. As a young man he loved cycling and he participated in local time trials.

He was very good with home renovation projects and enjoyed making many improvements to their home on Central Avenue in Elliot Lake.

On June 30th, 2017 Brian and Audrey moved into a new bungalow. Arthritis dictated it was time to get away from the stairs on Central Avenue. Sadly, Brian lived only a very few days in the new home before being ambulanced to St. Joseph’s Hospital where he stayed until the time of passing.

Doherty, George "Sonny"
February 20, 2017

It is with heavy hearts that we share the death of our dear dad, George Doherty ( affectionately known as Sonny to most and Papa to his 8 grandchildren and 2 great- grandchildren). He died peacefully on February 20th, 2017, at home with his wife Edith by his side. He was born in Tracey Mills, New Brunswick and lived 85 full years. In his youth, he travelled from coast to coast and in the spring of 1956, made Elliot Lake his home where he proudly worked for 35 years at Rio Algom. Our family came together and built a bonfire, looked through his books and treasures, some of us wore his belts, one of us wore his curling sweater, while another stepped into his cowboy boots. We listened to his music, we laughed at his quirkiness and marvelled at how in his last days, the weather was on his side, allowing him to build one last project out in his "shack". We cheered when we found that the movie reels and old projector still worked and cried as we watched a young man marry his sweetheart and best friend. Our dad chose not to have a service, he wasn't one for ceremony, but we believe he would have loved every minute of how his wife, kids and grandchildren honoured him. We will remember him as a good man who loved his family (though it was hard for him to show it), he played to win or didn't play at all, was loyal as the day is long and he never looked back. He made his own way in this world and never asked for much. His code for living was simple: learn, build, fix, save and give. He pushed against and pushed through if it mattered to him and he did his part to make it possible for one woman to work among men in the toughest of places. He was a soft boiled egg if ever there was one - hard on the outside with a soft, gooey centre - if we had ever told him that, he'd likely have joked that he preferred scrambled eggs best. Dad, you lived a long and meaningful life; you stared death in the face more than a few times letting him know it wasn't going to be that day. You taught us through example and loved us the best way you knew how. Rest now Dad, you worked so hard; we'll take it from here and we'll take good care of your friend. We love you every day with all our hearts ~ Janet, Debbie & Dana ". ..the place a man leaves is in the hearts of those he leaves behind, and in his work, not upon a slab..." Louis L'Amour, Sacket's Land Our deepest thanks to the medical professionals who took such good care of our Dad while he was resting at St. Joseph's General Hospital. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to St. Joseph's in his name: foundation@sjgh.ca.

Jerry Bujold It is with profound sadness that the family of Jerry Bujold announces his passing after a lengthy battle with cancer, Jerry, age 55, passed away peacefully on Sunday, April 3, 2016, with his family at his side.

He volunteered with several organizations including Elliot Lake Major Hockey, the Men's Crisis Center, the Elliot Lake Public Library Board, and Sheriff Lake Equestrian Center, among others. Jerry will always be remembered for his kindness and thoughtfulness. He was always willing to extend a helping hand. A truly ethical man, Jerry helped many through difficult times (often over a coffee at McDonald's) despite his own challenges. Jerry maintained a positive outlook throughout his battle with cancer, and he continued to travel with Arlene until mere days before his passing. A true Elliot Laker, Jerry loved spending summers at "the lake" with his family and friends. Many will remember his evenings spent around the campfire. In the winters, Jerry enjoyed local hockey games where he could visit with friends. The very last hockey game that Jerry watched from the bleachers was one in which his son played. Jerry will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Arlene, and his children, Sarah (Travis) and André (Tracey). Also left in mourning are his five sisters, Lana (Stan) Humphries, Shiela (Roland) Dubois, Beth (Charles) Harrison, Valerie (Gerry) Heroux, and Candy (Steve) Rossetto, and his brother, Brad (Glenda).

Braunohler, Barbara
November 17, 1928 - December 2, 2015

In memory of Barbara Braunohler Nov. 17,1928 - Dec. 2, 2015 Some 40 or more people showed up at the Elliot Lake Funeral Chapel on Dec. 8, for the funeral of Barbara Gertrude Lucie Braunohler (neé Hampel), who had passed away at St. Joseph General Hospital in Elliot Lake on Dec. 2, 2015. Many were from the Elliot Lake Arts Club, that Barbara had been a member of. After cremation, the service was held by the Reverend Robert Gardner of Trinity United Church, who also read aloud a letter from Barbara's niece Gerlinde Kossegg in Germany. This was followed by a eulogy given by her son Jurgen, that touched on her remarkable life until age 87. Born in Goerlitz, Germany on the Polish border on Nov. 17, 1928, Barbara had immediately moved to Yugoslavia with her family, and spent her first seven years there. But a few years after her return to Germany, World War Two broke out. Barbara experienced many of the hardships, including the terrifying aerial bombings of Berlin by the Allies, before her family got her out. Things culminated in her escape from Goerlitz and the advancing Soviet Army at 16, to flee halfway across Germany to the little town of Ostheim. It was there that she met her future husband Fritz, and made her first living drawing portraits, as few possessed a camera. After severe post war hardships, Fritz and Barbara immigrated to Canada in 1953, and settled in Toronto, with Fritz in the photography and photo finishing business. They raised two sons, and bought a summer cottage on Lake Muskoka. Barbara resumed her professional portrait painting career in 1977, after taking art courses at Central Tech. With a successful career, her official portraits hang at the University of Toronto, the University of Guelph, the Anglican Church in Ottawa (of the Bishop), the Royal Ontario Museum, and corporate boardrooms.Celebrities she painted include Lt.-Governor of Ontario Pauline McGibbon, blues singer Salomé Bey, cinematographer Christopher Chapman and many others. With her outstanding grasp of colour theory, and use of the colour wheel or chart, she branched into teaching painting at Toronto's Forest Hill Art Club. There, a talented group of teenagers absorbed her teachings with unbridled enthusiasm and took them to new heights. Equally successful in the Artists in the Schools Program, she was repeatedly asked to coach high school art students for the next fourteen years. Barbara moved to Elliot Lake with her oldest son Jurgen in 2006, by then retired from painting for a living, and taught art at Retirement Living, the Elliot Lake Arts Club, and experimented with photography and photo shopping, to sell her breathtaking and wildly polarized images at the Elliot Lake Art Gallery. Painting slowly gave way to a new passion in nutrition, a legacy she hoped will still be passed down the generations in her family, that had originated with her mother, and pioneering Naturopath Dr. Leo Roy (whom she also painted). Likewise with the arts and culture from her writer father and theatre business his family dominated. Her fondest legacy however, was her two sons, Jurgen and Chris, grandchildren Tiffini and Erich, and two great-grandchildren Nevaeh and Carter.Greatly loved and sorely missed by all of us, her ashes will be buried at Elliot Lake's Woodland Cemetery in the Spring.
