North Halton Meeting February 17 Thirty nine members attended this in­ teresting meeting. President Bob Brewster made a few remarks regarding the Michigan and Border Cities/OGSA Joint Meeting and he congratulated Jim Wyllie on his new position as President of the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America. The second half of the morning meeting was conducted by the Ontario Turfgrass Research Foundation. After the annual financial statement was reviewed, research projects and new by-law changes were discussed. After lunch, Mr. Mosseler gave an in­ teresting talk on tree and shrub care. He made some very interesting points that we should take home with us and consider. We had enough curlers to fill two sheets of ice and two four-end games were played.

Prior to that he was golf James A Wyllie, CGCS course superintendent of Lambton (Ontario) Golf and Country Club, Toronto, from 1967 to 1979. He also was general manager and golf course superintendent of Huntington Golf and Country Club, Nashville, On­ tario. Wyllie has been a GCSAA member for 21 years. He also is a member of the Ontario Golf Course Superintendents Associa­ tion, in which he has served as president. He has served as presi­ dent of the Canadian Golf Superintendents Association and the Canadian Turf Grass Research Foundation. In 1980 Wyllie served as GCSAA secretary-treasurer and in 1981 was GCSAA Vice Presi­ dent. Wyllie has completed the turfgrass management course at the University of Guelph, Ontario, and has attended Runnymede Collegiate. Douglas Nisbet was highly respected The Nisbets of Aurora have been a well-known, well- OGSA NO-STARS respected, and well-liked family for decades. It was a shock to all of us when Doug Nisbet died last week, although we knew his lengthy illness offered little hope for his recovery. Saturday, The Banner ran a story recounting the life of Doug Nisbet. But many of the Nisbets’ friends live in the rural areas of Aurora, away from The Banner’s Saturday circulation areas. Requests from friends of the family to reprint the article were taken into consideration, and we decided such requests were valid. Following is the article as it appeared in Saturday’s Banner: Well known and well liked Aurora resident, Douglas Nisbet, died Sunday night in Toronto’s Wellesley hospital. He was 58 years old. Mr. Nisbet, Doug to those he knew, battled a blood disorder which finally overcame him, the same way he ran his life; with courage, patience and good humor. He was a well established businessman who was president of Bob Golden Blake McMaster Brent McCaffrey Aurora Greenhouse Ltd. and vice-president of Westview Golf Club. Both businesses he co-owned with his older brother Keith. Doug was born in a Toronto hospital, but he lived his entire life in Aurora. His father founded the Aurora Greenhouse business in 1919, and it was this business which Doug and his brother con­ tinued and expanded. Straight from high school, Doug joined the Royal Canadian Air Force and served overseas during World War II as a bom­ bardier in a Lancaster airplane. The war ended and Doug returned home, after one year in the service. He joined with his brother and began to rebuild their father’s greenhouse business. Later they sold the land, left the wholesale business and opened shop in Aurora now called The Greenhouse, located at 145 Yonge Street South. The two brothers also bought the old, closed-down Aurora Highlands Golf Club, which at the time was only a nine-hole course, and they began to rebuild it as well. Bob Cherry Ken Wright Ben Kern They sold the club in the late 50s and soon began the Westview Golf Club. However, business partnership wasn’t the only relationship Doug began after the war. He married Maxine Mckenzie (his high school sweetheart, his sons say) in 1948. Their marriage produced three sons, Craig, David and Michael. Doug was an avid golfer, and he also enjoyed tennis and jogging. It seems fitting that he would also be an avid gardener. At his home, high on a hill overlooking his golf course, Doug cultivated a garden of almost two acres in size. He was a life member of the Rising Sun Lodge (Masonic) and a one-time Rotarian. Besides his three sons and wife, Doug leaves his brother Keith, a former mayor of Aurora, and sister Beverly. He also leaves many friends. More than 150 people were at the Thompson Funeral Home Tuesday for the service. They heard a speaker describe him as, “a good guy.” Perhaps that was one of the more simple compliments he received, yet his friends say it tells the story. Douglas Nisbet, 58, died one day after his birthday.
