First and
foremost, thanks go to Mr. Edward Janiszewski of
Lakeshore Asylum Cemetery Project,
who has maintained contact with me and who patiently and
promptly responded to
all of my questions.
I must
acknowledge Mr. John Court, the archivist at the
Centre for Addiction and Mental Health for all the
assistance with the research.
Mr. Ian Smith of
Humber College kindly allowed me to see the former cottages
and the underground tunnels, while Mr. Peter Maybury guided
me through the buildings and supplied me with additional
information about the present state of the buildings. I must
also acknowledge him for his honesty.
Prof.
Geoffrey Reaume's book, "Remembrance of Patients Past:
Patient Life in Toronto Hospital for the Insane, 1870-1940"
has provided a lot of valuable insight and inspiration for
the project. In my opinion, Prof. Reaume has accomplished
something truly wonderful in documenting and, most important
of all, remembering the lives of the former
patients.
And thanks to Patrick W., he
knows for what.
Thanks also go to all the
countless individuals, who had kind comments about this web
site, while I do not extent my gratitude to all the people,
who decided take parts of it without my prior
permission - you know who you are. |
