"Mr Cosgrove" you left a permanent mark on my life, and the lives of many others, as our beloved headmaster of the lower school. A mentor and loving fatherly figure to us all. You will be missed by many. Gone but not forgotten. Sending love and best wishes from London, England, Caroline Mongeau (Ridley College student 1993-1995).

Saddened I was to learn "Mr Cosgrove" to have passed. May my thoughts, Prayers and condolences to all family, loved ones and pet companions with choirs of angels softly singing ; wing their way across the lake to the Niagara region .residences, the school whilst stirring reverence in all whose hearts and minds are touched. He was but only thirty years young when as an eighth grade student in the Lower School I had the privilege of being under his tutelage. A good man and fine educator he proved to be. One of the housemasters we all were most fond of in Leonard House. Strict or so Mr. Cosgrove seemed in the beginning but then it became quite apparent that beneath a little bit of something we all might call somewhat of a military hubris dwelled a character exemplary in fairness and compassionate through a benignant word or two, cutting through the chaff or rubbish as he called it. Obsequious he wasn't. I recall one new boy from Frobisher Bay, Paddon was his name, whose English accent was strikingly similar to that of his own, proved to be a wee bit insecure and homesick.Our Mr Cosgrove connected in a way so warm and bonding with the lad that brought him out of it before the month of November commenced. Were he at all introspectively reflective, Paddon must of thought him to be his hero.From his shoes I certainly would have.Moreover, for which every mother and future wife would be grateful, I'm sure,Mr Cosgrove also raised the whole unseemly lot in the dorm to new heights- ascending levels of hygiene. Thus eliminating any accusatory name tag, pigeonhole or stock response toward anyone being a "froust".A Cardinal sin to some, I recall. Health and peace right there, from disconcerting to comrades holding standards. Together. Our Mr. Cosgrove was a perfect match for a boy's private school and undoubtedly an excellent role model and benefit to every boy he taught imparting both strength of character and sound moral judgment in addition to school spirit and academic standing.. Sometimes people have more success accomplishing this outside of their own families the reason I guess being the difficulty found in doing so on account of overwhelming love for and expectations placed on their own children. Quite possibly many of the boys in attendance at Ridley College had/have parents who felt/feel this way as well and perhaps one other than primary sword ex caliber reason for such a send off. However the greatest reason ,I might say, is to be together with the other boys, to learn ,edify, grow and strengthen with the ladies and gentlemen welcome to Mr.David Rochford Cosgrove... formerly Ridley College...presently Heaven above. Time immemorial. As the old telling hymn we sang/sing in chapel honoured... Oh let a thousand voices sing,.... of our great Redeemers face,...the glories of Our God and King,...and triumphs of His Grace. Best C.W.Keele and " chin up now "

At Westminster Abbey Choir School he was my first French teacher, from 1962 to 1964. I also remember that in his last year of teaching at the Choir School he directed a production of Hamlet by the choristers in one of the cloister gardens. It was an ambitious undertaking, especially given the limited amount of time available to us as choristers (our days were very heavily scheduled) and of course the play had to be cut and cast, all of which was excellently done. I did not get a part but was given the role of prompter and so was present at all rehearsals, sitting concealed behind a tree. I am very grateful for this experience because I learned a lot of the play as a result, and it is the Shakespeare play most embedded in my memory to this day. Very glad to see these pictures of his happy family life. May he rest in peace.

Good morning family, friends, and fellow Ridleians. It is truly amazing to see so many faces here with our family today as we gather to celebrate my Dad - David Rochford Cosgrove. In a sense it would be more fitting if I re-phrased that to ‘our’ Dad; throughout our childhoods both Lisa and I shared both Mom and Dad with many of you.
In the past few weeks Mom, Lisa and I have received correspondence from hundreds of members of the Ridley family describing how “The Cosgroves” were for many… their parents away from home and how much of an impact they had on three decades of Ridleians lives. Unfortunately for some here, Dad’s impact involved staring at a plate of cold food for hours in the dining hall; his famous slipper George; or his booming voice echoing your name down the hallway.
I have to admit there were times growing up when I hated sharing him with you, but as I read the memories of students spanning those years my heart warmed and I felt ashamed I had felt that way.
I realized that is who my Dad was - he made time for everyone, cross him and it might fade away, but he made the time. He made the time in the classroom, on the sports fields, in the pool, in the theatre and in the dining hall. The door to his office was always open to his students, his fellow faculty members and the support staff.
Many of you here today will describe him as a compassionate, loyal, and humble man with a good sense of British humour. Every once in a while you could catch a glimpse of the mischievous twinkle in those steel blue eyes. It’s funny how he could strike the fear of God in his students with one glance and in another show the warmth and kindness he had inside. In either situation he didn’t need to say a thing, you just knew.
Dad was a true quiet professional for all that he gave of himself he expected nothing in return. He gave what I like to call the extra three minutes in life, he was never too big to do the small things that needed to be done. He was first in and last out for as long as I can remember. Dad was a grinder, he did his job quietly, consistently and professionally every day. He rarely struggled with knowing the right thing to do and actually following through on it. And when things did not work out as planned he usually responded with “IJDM” and he was right “It just doesn’t matter.”
The school and his students were not Dad’s only passions; he loved listening to music, reading books and newspapers, editing those same books and newspapers, gardening, cooking, and overseeing many household chores much to the chagrin of Mom, Lisa and I growing up. He may also have been known to enjoy the odd alcoholic beverage from time to time - one night in particular with Frank Hollinrake was legendary - to the best of my knowledge after a night on duty the two of them managed to conserve a can of tonic just long enough to enjoy a full bottle of gin Frank had at his place. Thankfully for Mom, I believe it was before the two of them had tied the knot.
My parents married in Combermere, ON in June of 1969 after the school year had ended. I can confidently say they are one another’s best friend and the love of each others lives. Life in the Cosgrove household began to take shape in the following years as Lisa and I arrived and Mom and Dad became mainstays of the Ridley community. The Cosgroves became well known for their famous curry suppers, the Cross Country dinner after party and the year end celebration. It may surprise many Ridleians here today that our teachers knew how to let loose after a school year. Somehow the party always ended up around our kitchen table, Dad in his spot in the corner celebrating another successful term or school year with a glass of cognac.
As most of you know, Dad had a huge impact on the performing arts program here at the school. He and Jim McLaughlin put on some magnificent shows with the support of many other members of staff. Dad put everything into these productions, I recall many times having to visit him here during Jesus Christ Superstar rehearsals or in the Mandeville Theatre for the many productions he directed. Our family can probably sing along to most of the songs still; as the soundtracks became the music for our family road trips down south or out east. To all those students who inspired him to be such an integral part of the program throughout his career — I thank you for some great memories of my Dad and our family.
Dad was the proud father of Lisa and myself, and loving grandfather to Emma, Chelsea and Loren. He was a devoted son, brother and uncle to his mother, sister and nieces in England. He was a dog lover through and through; our home was filled with dogs of all shapes and sizes throughout the years. Mom and Dad’s most recent dog Mojo, a 100 pound black lab found Dad’s lap to be his favourite afternoon nap location - the two of them on Dad’s recliner was definitely a sight to see. Our dog Cooper had a special bond with Dad as well. Cooper preferred Dad’s beard to his lap; and always greeted him with a full face wash which Dad always took in stride.
His ability to take things in stride reminds me of a school tour he was conducting with an OR whose son was going to be attending the Lower School. It was Halloween, Lisa had helped me with my costume which consisted of a sweater, mini skirt, blonde wig and make up. As I turned the corner by the tunnel to the chapel I walked straight into Dad and the OR with his son. I said hi to Dad and without skipping a beat he said, “Ah, here’s my son Mark. He’s captain of the 1st Football team.” And then they strode off continuing his tour.
Dad was a man of few words, but when they came they were profound. He always said what needed to be said even if it wasn’t what you wanted to hear. Some of his greatest attributes were his: ability to listen, offer advice, and never pass judgement. He had an indelible ability to know when he needed to let us fall down and realize for ourselves we could stand back up. This was never more evident than in one of his favourite sayings: “It only hurts until the pain goes away.” I’m quite sure those eight words got many of us here through some tough life lessons.
I’m not sure it will get me through losing him, but it will help me cope with the loss of my father, my teacher and my friend.
For Dad, Ridley College was his home, he had left England in 1966 to join the faculty of the Lower School and upon realizing he had found his true calling he never looked back. Dad made an impact on his students throughout his career, but what you all must know is the impact you left on him. He would be completely overwhelmed with how many people have reached out in the past few weeks to celebrate his life and his accomplishments. And even more so at how many people are here today with our family. When he told stories of you his face beamed with pride - whether he was sharing an athletic accomplishment, your day to day Ridley life or your achievements beyond the Ridley gates - his greatest reward was your success. If Dad can have one final impact on you let it be this: give the extra three minutes in whatever you are doing. He did and he was a tremendous human being as a result.
The American writer, Bessie Anderson Stanley wrote the following in 1904 to answer the question what is success? I think it is a great description of Dad’s life:
“He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of earth’s beauty or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose memory a benediction.”
There is one final thing I wanted to share with those here who are still wondering about one of Dad’s greatest mysteries - to this day, we have no idea what his wrestling name was. So in honour of him think of a wrestling name and let Mom, Lisa or I know back at Lower School.
David Rochford Cosgrove - a man who exemplified the school motto - Terar Dum Prosim - May I be consumed in service.

Judy & I were very sorry to learn of the passing of former colleague and friend David. He was a central figure, as Head of Middle School, when we arrived at Ridley in the cold January of 1995. At once he took our son, Dan, under his wing into Gd6, and his fatherly presence at the helm ensured a ready adjustment to life in Canada.
Of course he & I worked closely through those years, among other things planning the MS redevelopment which transformed its internal lay-out significantly for the better. He was, I recall, sceptical that it would ever happen - but it did, and in no small measure thanks to him! He had no time for airs and graces, and despite the many daily pressures, little seemed to perturb his unflappable, kind leadership, so that he was held in very high regard by students, parents and colleagues.
There was, however, a steely character beneath the placid surface - maybe stemming from his tough Northern UK upbringing. When he emigrated, Manchester's loss was very much Canada's (and Ridley's) gain.
So we remember him (and Connie, who was herself a wise and wonderful force on the Ridley scene of those days) with much affection. And we send Connie and the family warmest wishes at this very sad time.

May I express my heartfelt condolences to Connie and the whole family. Mr. C meant a lot to me during my time at Ridley College. In Summer 1989, when I visited the campus with my parents for the first time, he was the first person I met. Over the years, his office door was always open, and I remember sitting in "my chair" many, many times. I don't recall what we discussed but I do remember how much I enjoyed our chats and valued our friendship. And I remember both Mr. and Mrs. C. attending my father's funeral when I was in grade 6.
I gained so much from my experiences acting in various musicals at Ridley. It was Mr. C., together with Michael Tansley, who introduced me to the world of Stephen Sondheim through Sweeney Todd in 1998. Little did I know that this early introduction would spark an interest that would lead me to write a dissertation devoted to Sondheim and his shows. And didn't Mr. C. also direct Ridley's ambitious undertaking, Dido and Aeneas in 1996? I haven't stopped singing ever since.

Mr. Cosgrove was a great teacher and a nice person in my experience. I always enjoyed his lessons which veered off the curriculum frequently, he conveyed a sense of indefatigability to me as a student. I remember his stories about what went into the beer vats in Tunbridge Wells. But what I remember most was an event in the shooting range that left an indelible impression on me. The very heavy wooden lid of the gun locker fell shut on his hand which was pinched severely; his hand was resting on the lip of the opening near the hinge. I could not believe that he didn't flinch when this happened. I asked him if it hurt, he said, (and I can still quote verbatim today) "It only hurts till the pain goes away". A valuable lesson for life. I write this to you to express my thanks for having met and been taught by him. I'm sorry he's gone. My sincere condolences.

I knew him in 1978 when I was only thirteen years old while studying at Ridley in lower school. Immediately he became my tutor, he was kind and patient during his guidance, even though I couldn’t speak English when I arrived from Venezuela and at the same time strict when I had to be disciplined.
I haven’t seen or talked to him ever since I returned to my country over 40 years ago, but he left me a symbol of how to help and guide everyone without expecting to receive anything in exchange, just for the pleasure of making this world a better place.
God bless him!!

My condolences. David was a much loved master to me at Ridley. He was stern, but also had a wonderful sense of humor. One day he took my shoes in French class and he would not return them until the end of the year. They were suade which was not allowed. I remember the incident not because of the shoes, but because I always felt we had a bond. I am not sure why, but he liked me, and I liked him.
All my best to your family. He was a good man.

Dear Mr Cosgrove,
I was very sad to receive a message today concerning your father who, I understand, has passed away, following an illness.
We shall remember him in Westminster Abbey and I shall light a candle for him tomorrow. He was a teacher here at the choir school back in the 1960’s and I shall try to alert anyone who would have been here at the time.
In an earlier message, which I also received today on our return from the Easter break, you enquired about a hymn which might be suitably sung at a memorial service. We do not have a specific school hymn or song, but the one I always associate with the Abbey is Christ is Made the Sure Foundation, since the tune is entitled Westminster Abbey, and it is by Henry Purcell from his anthem: O God, thou art my God.
You will be very much in my thoughts and prayers.
With every good wish,
Yours sincerely,
Jonathan Milton
Headmaster
Westminster Abbey Choir School

How does one take a paragraph and in that, sum up a life like that of David Rochford Cosgrove? A paragraph? I might need a novel! As a very little girl, I can recall playing a mouse in the production of Noah's Arc ... Kyrie! Kyrie! Was that his first production? I reckon it was not.
In his 33 years at Ridley he directed a plethora of productions, many of which I was more than privileged to be apart of, whether backstage as a part of the tech crew or on stage singing and acting. I remember seeing the Pirates of Penzance and HMS Pinafore as a little girl, and as my Mum recalls, Colm Feore as the lead in Oliver!
I recall Jesus Christ Superstar and it's incredible score ... Grease, Leader of the Pack, West Side Story, Evita, My Fair Lady and so many more …
As Stephen Hunt wrote:
"Among your dad's many talents, I had the pleasure of working with him on numerous school musicals. He was a tremendous director, drawing great performances from young amateur actors, setting up complex scenes, working with Jim McLaughlin to get the set design just right. He had a vision and made the students feel like they were part of something much bigger than a high school production. After rehearsals we would usually retire to a local bar for beer and his signature double-suicide chicken wings. I am grateful to have had the chance to know and work with him."
As Chipsi Badger wrote:
”…to this day, I have such fond memories of the whole experience. I did not know your Dad before the show, but in the process he became a friend and mentor to me."
I can't even imagine that I could sum up even the theatrical accomplishments of my father, in a paragraph the stories and legends that are his and his alone as a formidable Director, they speak for themselves.

David Cosgrove
David was a staunch supporter of his community once he and Connie took up permanent residency in Combermere and he generously offered up his many skills to help make his new home as vibrant and engaging as possible.
Being the senior statesman on the Combermere Recreation Committee, David helped guide committee members on a variety of endeavours including the summer swim program which he managed for the Committee, youth movie nights, and fundraising dances. Out of David’s volunteer work on the Recreation Committee came his involvement with the Combermere Free Press, the area’s only free community newspaper which raised funds to support children’s activities and other community-based services.
As a member of the Combermere Heritage Society, David was involved in a rather spirited revival of the old St. Paul’s Anglican Church rectory helping to turn it into the museum and gallery today known as Mission House.
David also enjoyed his time with the children at Combermere’s George Vanier Catholic School where he helped ensure that only library books of the highest order were on the shelves for the young readers.
