Wouldn’t have anecdotal stories.I can give you empirical data that supports my actual statement, that is, people often make major life changes after recovering from a serious illness. Since you decided to fixate on cancer and divorce, I’ll exclude other life changes and relationship situations...

Your view on her youthful look might be the right one. Recovering from cancer could bring renewed appreciation for life and HS would’ve had the energy and determination to look her best and live to the fullest. Also agree with what you say about BS and the difficulty of splitting assets...

I’d be thinking the same. I agree that discussing reasons for this specific listing would’ve been inappropriate. My answer would’ve been either a short, general market reference to satisfy the question, or a statement regarding not being in the position to comment on anything. But I get what...

Is there indication in the article of any further questions? It seems to me that she - for some reason - avoided answering a simple market related question, then switched focus and made a statement about her friendship with the Shermans and the understandable emotional shock she was...

rsbm That would’ve been a perfectly good answer instead of declining to comment.

AFAIK, they owned two residential properties, one in Toronto and one in Florida. The real estate agent wasn’t asked about the gruesome deaths. She was asked about the poor timing...

1. People often make major life changes after recovering from a serious illness. 2. Likely she dyed her hair regularly but not in a drastic way, going from dark brown to light blond. 3. Fair enough. 4. So why put it on the market? Why not stay in their home until the new one is ready? 5. The...

Would anyone else here think these are signs of a marriage in trouble? HS recently recovered from cancer. She switched to a fashionable, young hairstyle and changed her dark brown hair color to light blond. She worked out with a personal trainer. They put their family home of 27 years...

I’m not sure how your post is different from what I posted.

Empire was a very successful company with a great future. Louis Winter was one of the pioneers of the generic drug industry and Empire Group of Companies was number one in the generic field grossing about $1,000,000 in revenues at the time of his death in 1965. No wonder BS wanted it so bad...

I agree that there would've been problems with employment by the time they made contact with BS in the late 1980s. But the crux of the matter is that BS sold Empire in 1972 when the children were still very young, somewhere between 11 and 14 years of age. With the sale of the company, the...

Thank you for saying that. Imo, those young children were betrayed by someone who professed to protect their interest. It was done to them behind their backs - they didn’t get to know about the promises made and promises dishonored until they were in their late 30s and early 40s. BBM

You are right, the company will go on at least for a while but they are in a tough situation. Much of the success of Apotex depended on Barry’s ability to formulate drugs in genius ways and the loss of BS will be a major loss for Apotex’s revenue stream. And that’s not all. The steady decline...

The Sherman case might involve huge players, might not. Connection to Apotex is a good possibility. Another one would be connection to the construction of their residence. Motive: old lawsuit Trigger: listing the house on realtor.ca and describing it as a masterpiece (November 28ish) Timing...

Sometimes the least likely people will murder their spouses. About a year ago, not far from the Sherman residence a husband murdered his wife. https://torontolife.com/city/crime/brilliant-neurosurgeon-beloved-family-doctor-untold-story-volatile-marriage/ My point is that we just don’t...
