in Medicine Hat, Alberta, he grew up in Moncton, NB, the son of Ivan
Cleveland and Iredell Rand. He excelled at studies in high school
(Provincial Honour Roll) and at Mt. Alison University (Cum Laude '38)
where he met his beloved wife Margaret Colby (1918 - 2002). They had
three children, Peter (Pat Hertzberger), Penny (Ken Cressman) and
Stephen (Paula Fraser) who were loved and directed toward intellectual
pursuit and a love of the arts. Postgraduate studies led to a Medical degree
from McGill ('42) and a specialty in Internal Medicine ('50) after a
four-year service in the RCAF and research in Seattle. His medical career
at the Lockwood Clinic in Toronto ('50 - '53) and in private practice in
Kitchener ('53-'61) prepared him for contributions to the federal Ministry
of Health ('61-'68) and a Professorship in Epidemiology at the University
of Western Ontario ('68-'82). Always in the pursuit of new and challenging domains. All this work was flavoured with
working trips to the Arctic, Thailand, Lesotho and Sierra Leone and explorations of European culture. His gentlemanly nature
endeared him to his ten grandchildren and nineteen great-grandchildren and all those whom he met. He will be much missed
but will remain an enduring memory to many. A celebration of his life will be held at Ratz-Bechtel Funeral Home , 621 King

most often be found, in her spare time at the gym, playing golf, riding her bike, or teaching Pilates to groups who fast became

Madeleine who have both grown into incredible people, fulfilling every wish and dream that Judy had for them. We wish to

McKoy, and the Langlois and Marion families. We have met incredible people during his journey and there are so many
people to thank; Dr. Gallagher for the diagnosis and education, Dr. Chouinard and his team of doctors, nurses, staff, and
volunteers. Without your expertise of treatments and trial drugs, we would not have had the past 3 years with him which we
are so very grateful for. Each of you made him feel special and knew by the smell of his cologne he was in the hospital. Dr.
Kuk, for the aggressive radiation treatment once the spinal cancer was detected and the midnight run, CCAC especially
Joanne and Pat, for allowing us to keep him home for as long as we could, the 3rd and 4th floor nurses at CMH, for the care
during our lengthy stays, Lisaard House RNs, PSWs, staff, and volunteers, for the care and compassion that you provided to
him and to his family for the past 15 weeks. All of you will hold a special place in our hearts for the love you provided. And
finally to our family and friends, we could have never done this without all of you. We are so lucky that you all loved him as
much as we did. He always had a smile on his face and a twinkle in his eye until he no longer could. We miss him already,
we will love him forever and until we see him again....go and walk with the angels now. Family will receive relatives and

ZORIAN, Wesley Allen It's with great sadness, his children announce the passing of their father, Wesley Allen Zorian, at the
Yorkton Regional Hospital, Yorkton, Saskatchewan on May 2, 2014. He would have been 81 years of age on May 31, 2014.
He was born May 31, 1933 near Burgis District, Saskatchewan. He was the beloved son of John and Mary (nee
Achtymichuk) Zorian. Wes' father John, was a grain buyer for the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool and Wes was schooled in the
district wherever John was stationed including living in Kamsack. After graduating high school, Wes went on to be a teacher
in a one room school house for a year. He then ventured to Ontario to train in the Health Sciences, earning his accreditation
as an X-ray Technician. He began employment at the Kitchener-Waterloo Hospital and over the many years, advanced to
Chief X-ray Technician. It was here at the hospital that he met love of his life, Dianne (nee Nihls), whom he married on May
30, 1960. Sadly Dianne passed away December 1996. Later he worked for Medical Diagnostic Systems Labs (MDS Labs) as
a mobile x-ray tech. A position he very much enjoyed as he loved the people he worked with and liked being on the road and
travelling in the x-ray van across Ontario. Wes' mother passed away in October 2002. Following his retirement, he came to
Yorkton, Saskatchewan to help care for his father John. After John passed away in 2006, Wes remained in Yorkton. Wes
loved his Carmen Gia car, and later his motorcycles. He also enjoyed travelling, watching air plane shows, flying model air
planes, music, dancing, photography and playing cards with friends. He is survived by his son Brad and Wife Alison,
daughter Stacey; and Grandchildren Bronwyn and Colin (all of Kitchener) and other relatives and friends. A special Thank
You goes to the Doctors, Nurses and Staff of the Yorkton Regional Hospital for their kindness and care of Wes but especially
to his family doctor, Dr. A. Vanheerden. Wes made a valiant effort, yet died Friday, May 2, 2014 due to complications of
heart attack, stroke and sepsis. There needs to be more research and understanding of how to treat sepsis. As one of Jehovah's
Witnesses, Wes was concerned for and helped others with their spiritual needs for many years. A special thanks must be
extended to all of Dad's dear friends who showed their concern and love by visiting and offering their greatly appreciated
help. The family is so grateful for your self-sacrificing spirit. Thank you all so very much. A memorial service will be held
