The Good News
Leafs Fan Dies! Anita Cupp was found dead at 9:30 Thursday, May-
07-15 age 48 years and 5 days. Cause of death is
unknown but the best guess is that being a fan of
the Toronto Maple Leafs is very slow, and realized
finally that the Leafs did not make the playoffs and
that the Habs have the most Stanley Cups in all the
NHL “could not take it” and simultaneously died.
No one was upset and the funeral is not happening,
even the house is going to simply be left where it is
and destroyed with Anita in it, having no family members to moor because he was
rejected for his team liking. All his life Cupp wanted to have a Leafs playoff game
dedicated to him (like in memory or something) but because it never happened his wish
never came true. Being as old as Toronto’s Stanley Cup he will, like their cup no longer
exist.

Damien Ryan Parlor
Born: August. 1, 1974
Died: September. 27, 1984 ( age 10 )
Diagnosed with lung cancer in 1981, (age 7) lived for 3 more years then passed away.
Damien or Damie, was a boy who was so dearly loved by his mother, April Mia Parlor, and father, Jack
Connor Parlor.
He lived in a small home, on Dunn street, Niagara Falls. He was always dreaming of becoming a known
astronaut, because science was by far his favourite, and best subject.
But during January of 1981 he was constantly getting chest pain, and coughing. So his mother and father
scheduled a doctor’s appointment for him, and the doctor gave a diagnosis with the help of his
symptomatic sicknesses, of lung cancer.
Shortly before he passed away, the morning of September 14, 1984, Damien wanted one last wish
before he left this world, and that was to be outside with the bees and the flowers. So he left the
hospital for that day to have some freedom.
Sadly, the afternoon of September. 27, 1984, Damien’s heart beat was lower than normal, and his
symptoms were stronger, he died that day in his hospital room with his mother and father right by his
side.
Damien Ryan Parlor August 1st, 1974 – September 27th, 1984
(Died at the age of 10)
A boy with dreams…
Damien Ryan Parlor, a 10 year old hyperactive and friendly child had unfortunately
passed away due to being hit by a drunk driver on the road in Orlando, Florida. This left a lot of
pain, torture and agony to tons of family members and friends.
Damien was born in Orlando, Florida and was a massive soccer fan. He loved to play
soccer and watch soccer on the television. He also loved to draw many pictures. He started
playing soccer at the age of 5 and he fell in love with the sport instantly. After attending school,
which was The Orlando Elementary School, he would quickly get home to get a soccer ball and
run outside so he could play soccer with his friends. He also loved to draw many different things
such as cars, nature and his favourite food, French fries.
When he grew up, he wanted to be a doctor so he could help others and cure the sick
patients. He had a little first-aid kit where he would pretend to cure his “sick patients” which
were his toys.
He was a caring and loving boy who had the dream of helping others. Even the teachers
at The Orlando Elementary School had painted a huge picture, in honor of Damien. He will be
remembered in everyone’s thoughts.

Boy Killed by Drunk Driver, Family Gets $3.1 Million
On September 27, 1984, young Damien Ryan Parlor, nicknamed
“Damie” by his friends and family, was hit and killed by a drunk driver.
Damien was in a rented motorhome with his family 8 when a vehicle
with an intoxicated driver struck the RV and killed him. Now, the seven
other members of the family grieve for him, as he was only a young
boy. “He was such a sweet boy,” said his mother. “He was the kind of
kid who could pet bees.” After a lengthy court battle with an insurance
company, the family managed to get a whopping $3.1 million to cover
damages. “I’ve dreamed of being a wealthy man my whole life, but
now, money doesn’t mean anything to me anymore,” said Damien’s
father. “We will never be able to buy back Damie’s cheerful smile or
laugh.” Despite the family receiving the large sum of cash, there are
still more legal issues to sort out, as many lawyers do not believe that
they are entitled to such a great deal of money. He will be buried on
October 3rd, and anybody who wished to attend to his funeral is
welcome to come.
His tombstone reads:

Percy Delandes First class saloon steward aboard the Titanic’s maiden voyage
Percy Delandes was the first class saloon steward for the Titanic on its maiden and final
voyage. He died April 15 1912 at the age of 30 years old when the Titanic had sank, living from 1882-
1912. He lived in Manhattan, New York. He was not married, emigrated to the U.S in 1905 from
England where both his parents were born. Percy Delandes was a butler working for Charles
Newman and was hired to work on the Titanic. Before he was hired by Charles Newman Percy
worked as a mechanic to help construct the titanic and provide the layout for the kitchen area. He
gave many different recommendations to the constructors that were working on the titanic so that
the kitchen would be the most efficient as it could be. Percy Delandes lived a very happy and
nomad life, enjoying what he could where he could when he could; and he spent the rest of the time
working very hard so that when he did have the time he also had the money. May he always be
remembered

Percival ‘Percy’ Stainer Delandes, the beloved husband of Elizabeth Myra Jones and first class steward upon the Titanic died a valiant demise on
April 15 between 11:40 p.m. and 2:20 a.m.
Percy perished while saving many lives as he realised that many were many people drowning on the lower decks. He gallantly speed towards the lower decks and swam through the deathly cold water to save those who were drowning in the
frigid cold.
By rescuing many lives and sacrificing himself for those who were young, he will be remembered as a valued hero. We will never forget the brave Percy
Delandes.
In the end it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.

Man dies after the sinking of the Titanic By: Justin Thibault
Percival Stainer Deslandes was assigned to be a first class saloon steward aboard the Titanic on
April 4th 1912. He was serving a young couple that were extremely over weight and naughty
when the Titanic hit the iceberg. The couple fell over and their knives pierced Percival and their
corkscrews went up in the air and into his mouth. Then the woman threw her purse in the air,
everything flew out of it and went over Percival’s head. Percival later died by suffocation on
April 15th 1912 on the Titanic. His body was later recovered by the Mackay-Bennett and he was
buried at Fairview Lawn Cemetery, Halifax, Nova Scotia. We also found a document that was
created by cause of death and apparel.

OUR DARLING LITTLE
DAUGHTER
VIOLET MAY
WHO DEPARTED THIS LIFE
5th NOVEMBER 1909
AGED 7 YEARS, 11 MONTHS
HER HANDS
WERE CLASPED UPON HER BREASTS,
WE KISSED HER LOVING BROW,
AND IN OUR ACHING HEARTS WE K(Redacted)
WE HAVE NO VIOLET NOW.
I have looked through all Carleton Library Databases and she is not one of the dead mentioned
in the article. By looking at the articles I saw that no one else died on that day that I know of
and nothing bad happened that day, it was just a normal day. Using what the gravestone told
me, I figured out that she was born on Thursday December 5th 1901 and died Friday November
5th 1909. The name Violet May later became an English 6-piece rock act in 2009. No images of
Violets May’s Gravestone are anywhere on the internet. Because no other images have been
found I have not been able to find the last word in sentence 3 of the poem all I can see is a “K”
and possibly an “I” next to it but the rest is unknown. If you search the name Violet May I have
found there is a Instagram Account with the name Violet may and a gravestone as a picture.
Could Violet May be alive or did someone set that account up for her.
Violet may
Died at the age of 7
1902-1909
Violet May daughter of and Mr. Edward May and Mrs. Ruth May died last week on
November 5, 1909 due to the measles. Their daughter was suffering from a bad case of
measles leading to her passing away. At the beginning she had a high fever and was always
tired. Her family is devastated and is wishing that they should have done something sooner.
The descended was seven years of age and before violet was sick she was always
helping out at home and was going to the nearby school. Her friends cared a lot about her
and were always getting her to smile, even in her last days.
Her older brothers and younger sisters are having the hardest time dealing with this
situation. They all loved her very much and even if they fought sometimes, it always ended
with them hugging and loving one another.
The family is planning to hold a funeral for their beloved daughter on November 11,
1909. The May’s are inviting mostly family and friends. The parents were hoping that she
would have her whole life ahead of her and that she would then die as an old lady. The
father Mr. Edward May states that she will be welcomed to haven with open arms.
