WALLACE, Ron - The family of Ron Wallace announces
with great sadness the passing of their beloved husband, father, grandfather
and brother. Ron, 91, died peacefully at his home of 50 years on Bloomingdale
Terrace, Halifax, Nova Scotia on May 20, 2008 surrounded
by his loving family. Ron will be deeply missed by his cherished wife,
the former Patricia McColough, son-in-law Bill Presse, husband of Ron's
eldest daughter Barbara, who predeceased him in 2005, and children Suzanne
(Don Presse), Mary Beth (Adam Antczak), Ian (Gail Hogan), Mark (Anita Lorelli)
and Jennifer (Sergei Shirokov), and grandchildren Andrew, Nick, Allison,
Barbara, Ian, Elizabeth, Stuart, Claire, Duncan, Kate, Kevin, Jack, Julia
and Jacqueline, and by sisters Ruth, Mona and Eleanor.
Ron was beloved
by many for much but was primarily defined by his love of family. He said
marrying his wife Patricia 60 years ago was the smartest thing he ever
did. Every day, he was uplifted and fulfilled by the love and devotion
of his wife and children. Ron treasured his 14 grandchildren, sharing his
love of literature and poetry with them, taking pride in their accomplishments
and providing them with endless hours of fun at the family cottage in Queensland.
Throughout his long and prolific life, Ron made immeasurable contributions
to his city and country. Professionally, he was an optometrist who owned
and operated Wallace Optometrists. He was also an accomplished athlete,
elected to the Canadian Boxing Hall of Fame for his many boxing accomplishments.
In 1937, he was the Maritime Middleweight and Light-Heavyweight Inter-Collegiate
Boxing Champion and Maritime Open Middleweight Champion. Ron also contributed
his leadership and talents to military service, graduating from Royal Roads
Naval Academy and serving as Gunnery Officer on HMCS Dunvegan in the North
Atlantic, and HMCS Loch Morlich in the English Channel from 1942-1945.
Outside of family, Ron's deepest passion was for politics and community
service. He was the Liberal MLA for Halifax Citadel from 1970-78 and the
longest-serving Mayor of Halifax, elected for four terms from 1980-91.
Ron also left a lasting legacy for his community as a founding board member
of Pier 21, and as a board member of the Discovery Centre, Old Burial Grounds
and Waegwoltic Club. He also served as Honourary Vice President of the
Canadian Red Cross Society, Chair of the capital campaign for construction
of St. Thomas Aquinas Church and St. Vincent 's Guest House. He was
public relations coordinator for the United Appeal and the Knights of Columbus.
For his remarkable public service and leadership, Ron was named a Member
of the Order of Canada in 2001, and awarded an Honourary Doctor of Laws
Degree from Saint Mary's University in 1995. Ron firmly believed
that: "Life is God's gift to you. The way you live your
life is your gift to God." Ron's life was indeed a great
gift to God, as well as to his family, who were so blessed by his unending
devotion, and to the many, many people whose lives he touched.
Ron's
family expresses their sincere gratitude to Dr. Kenneth Rockwood, his team
and the staff of Unit 8.4 of the Halifax Infirmary. Donations may be made
to "The
Barbara Presse Courage and Confidence Scholarship", by cheque
to the Sacred Heart School of Halifax, 5820 Spring Garden Road, Halifax,
