Ron passed peacefully at home surrounded by family.
“I’ve had a truly blessed life”, Ron would often say as the clock was ticking down. The early days with his loving parents, Mae and Stanley, and his sisters Loreen and Marie. The blind date that led to a wonderful 67-year journey with his soulmate, Ruth. An incredibly close-nit group of friends to share life’s adventures. His children, Rob and Tyler, and the road-trip sing-a-longs, summers at the cottage, and Christmases at the farm. The addition of Karin (Rob), Jacqueline (Tyler) and beloved grandchildren Jake and Danika and a wonderful extended family that was so precious to him. All to the backdrop of a storied career which garnered, as Ron would say, a rather embarrassing pile of accolades.
Ron was a practicing engineer when his mother said, after an argument, that he should be a lawyer. With Ruth’s approval, this led to him becoming… a partner at Osler Hoskin & Harcourt, a professor at Osgoode Hall Law School, an early Director of Parkdale Community Legal Services, the Director of Education at the Law Society of Ontario, Director of the Bar Admission Course, founding Chair of what is now Ontario’s Workplace Safety and Insurance Appeals Tribunal (WSIAT). Ron was a leader in Canada’s administrative justice community, recognized by the Law Society of Ontario with its Medal for outstanding service in accordance with the highest ideals of the legal profession. Ron authored many published articles and a book, Unjust by Design, championing the creation of an administrative justice system that might one day be “Just by Design”.
Ron Ellis was a marvelous human being with a lively enquiring mind and a great sense of humour. A party to celebrate Ron’s “blessed life” will be held in the new year.
