He was found dead at his Oakville home on April 19th. He was in his 78. He has owned the successful hair salon in Oakville for over 40 years. "He was so generous and gentle with his senior cus tomers," said Joyce Burnell, a long-time client and friend. He went far beyond giving seniors reduced rates for their hair cuts and styling. "He would walk them to the door, and helped them with their walkers and canes," she said. "He was just loved in town." Prior to coming to Oakville, he worked as a hairstylist in England, where he learned English. A newspaper article written at the time reported Uzelac, had recently arrived in England from Vienna to "introduce his own special brand o f hair styling," which included a reverse curl technique. At the time, his English was limited to `thank you,' `trim, `set,' `sham poo,' and `good morning m adam .' He would look at his clients and do their hair, with pleasing results, according to a woman quoted in that same newspaper article. Uzelac hails from CALL NOW - ONLY 126,000 TICKETS TO BE SOLD!

And, to reduce maintenance on the windows, alu minum moldings cover some of the wood. The new building reflects the con gregation's passion. The first Christian Science services were held in Oakville in 1919 at a pri vate home. Later that year, as the con gregation grew, a hall was rented, an association established, and Sunday School classes were held along with regular services. In 1922, the fledgling congregation applied to the M other Church in Boston, M ass., to establish the Christian Science Society. It's first public lecture was held in 1926. The congregation rented the former Temperance Hall at Dundas Street and Trafalgar Road in 1931, and a Christian Science Reading Room was estab lished. Land for its first church building was acquired at 23 Reynolds St., and the first service in the new building was held on Sept. 26, 1951. The build ing was dedicated, debt free, on April 27, 1952. In 1957, with the approval of the Mother Church, the congregation became known as First Church of Christ, Scientist. By the early 1960s, the congrega tion had outgrown its first church building. In June 1962, a stately home with spacious grounds at 1111 Lakeshore Rd. E., was purchased, and after some renovations, the first service at this location was held on July 17, 1963. The expanded space allowed for the opening of a nursery. This building was sold in April 1993, and has revert ed back to being a private residence. The church moved into a temporary storefront at the comer of Navy and Randall Streets, where it remained until its new Bronte building was com pleted. The Church of Christ, Scientist, was founded by Mary Baker Eddy (18211910) of New Hampshire, who in 1866 identified the teachings of C hrist's healing as Christian Science. She wrote Science and Health with Keys to the Scriptures in 1875. The denomination is best known for its publication of the Christian Science Monitor, which she founded in 1908.
