Original Toronto Star caption: Bowed in prayer: Ontario Lieutenant-Governor John Aird, left, Premier William Davis, Lucille Aird, wife of the lieutenant-governor, and Kathy Davis, the premier's wife, kneel with hundreds of others at the funeral yesterday. During the simple service mourners heard clergymen from several denominations read such Biblical passages as Psalm 121: I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills . . . The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth for ever more. Most Rev. Lewis Garnsworthy conducted the hour-long rites.
