  • Notes 
    • Between the ages of 18 and 24, Louis worked for Canada Steamship Lines as a cook's assistant. Then in about 1928, Louis' entire family moved to Toronto into the Parliament and Queen Streets area. TheCatholic Church in that area is St Paul's,even today. In November 1931, a few years after their arrival in the big city, Louis stood witness at the wedding of his sister Kitty. Less than a year after that, Louis chose his life partner. After their wedding, the young couple lived on Sumach Street,where their first two sons were born. Shortly after this, they moved to the east side of the Don River to help son Edmund's asthma. Louis and Margaret eventually had five sons, to which they added three adopted daughters. They were also grandparents to 19 children by October 1977 - although Louis only lived to hold three of his grandchildren before his death. Six great-grandchildren have been added to their clan since 1986.Louis and Margaret also became godparentsto their grandson Paul ARBOURin October 1965 in Toronto. Margaret made it her life's work to raise her children to become thoughtful, responsible adults. She was extremely proud of the fact that all of her children graduated fromhigh school-not necessarily a common feat inthe1950s and 1960s. Margaret was veryreligious herself and made sure that all of the children attended Catholic schools, both at the elementary and secondary levels. This upbringing was quite instrumentalin encouraging their son Allen to becomeaCatholic priest. In fact, the family was honored enough to have three priests among their sons at one point.
