26 - The Oakville Beaver, Wednesday January 23, 2008 www.oakvillebeaver.com Busy little bees: atom B Hornets playing twice a day recently The Oakville BMO Financial Group atom B Hornets have been doubling their pleasure in recent action. Following a ruling last month by the Ontario Women's Hockey Association that the team would be re-categorized from a `C' team to a `B' squad in league action and playoffs, the Hornets have been twice as busy. Oakville is still playing `C' level opponents to fulfill its original league commitments, but is also participating in exhibition games against `B' calibre opponents to prepare for the playoffs -- often doing both on the same day. The Hornets defeated both a Woodstock `C' team and a Waterloo Ravens `B' squad Jan. 13, then posted wins over Woodstock `C' and Brantford Ice Cats `B' this past Saturday. Oakville also defeated a Brantford `C' squad Sunday. Among those scoring goals in the five games for Oakville were Jessica Thompson, Sydney Davison, Taylor Davison, Elizabeth O'Hara, MacKenzie Sutherland, Christina Scanlon, Madeline Sisokin and Alex Daniel.

Born January 6th, 1915, in Tuapse, Russia, on the Black Sea, Eugene was raised and educated in Poland. He served as a 2nd Leftenant in the Polish Army - Artillery, was captured by the Russians in 1939 and survived the Soviet Gulag labour camps to join the Allied Forces where he trained as an RAF navigator. In 1950, he immigrated to Canada and settled with his wife Janina, in Oakville, Ontario. He worked for Sun Life Insureance, Dufferin Construction and St. Lawrence Cement until his retirement. His zest for life was evident in the great pleasure he found in the art and craft of daily living. He built his own homes (Cambellville and Erin), raised a menagerie of animals, and grew a thriving garden of fruits and vegetables, all destined for the table. His repertoire also included making his own sausage, smoking bacon, baking his own rye bread, pickling mushrooms, fishing, and telling riveting stories of his war years. He loved languages, tutoring his family and friends, reciting Polish poetry and practising Russian, until his death. He also loved a good joke, a good drink, a challenging game of bridge, and a rousing discussion with his best friend Ludek Kraszweski, in equal measure. His tender devotion in caring for his wife Janina, for 15 years after her major stroke, continues to be an inspiration to all of us. Eugene was predeceased by his wife Janina (Dr. Zaborowska 2000); he is lovingly remembered by his daughter Eva Ross (john, son Mark (Kathleen Jonathan), and grandchildren Jason Ross (Healther Smith), Jenna Veenstra (Dave) and Amanada Bell (Josh), ten lively great grandchildren- Gage, Nolan, Jett, Preston and Jaxxon Ross and Danielle, Jacob, Joanna, Sarah and Rebecca Veenstra. A memorial service will be held at St. John Brebeuf Catholic Church on Saturday, January 26th, 2 p.m. at 24 Millwood St. Erin, ON with reception to follow. The family wishes to thank the Guelph General Hospital and Riverside Glen staff for their gentle care in his last days. In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to Guelph General Hospital, EWAG Seniors program or the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
