Well-known residents celeirate 40 years of marital bliss

and in 1948 the Corrins' moved to Lucknow
where Dr. Corrin began his medical prac-
tice with Dr. Johnston.
"We found the people so friendly, kind
and nice. I felt at home right away," Mrs.
Corrin said.
However, she soon found that being a
doctor's wife wasn't all that easy. Dr. Cor-
rin worked extremely long hours and was
often on call for 24 or 36 hours at a time.
Within their first two years of life in
Lucknow, the Corrins moved a total of six
times. Between moving and raising their
six children, Mrs. Corrin was kept ex-
tremely busy.
Finally, in 1954, the Corrins' moved to
522 Outram where they have since resided.
"This was Dr. Johnston's home, and Dr.
Elliot's home before that. It has always
been a doctor's home," Dr. Corrin said.
Through the years of medical practice in
Lucknow, Dr. Corrin has worked with a
number of doctors. These include: Dr.
Johnston, Dr. Finlayson, Dr. McKim, Dr.
Bradley, Dr. Jolly, Dr. Shalom and his cur-
rent associates Dr. Bekasiak and Dr.
Shubat. He has also seen a number of
changes in the medical field since he
began his practice.
During his first six years in Lucknow,
Dr. Corrin was responsible for covering
hospitals in Kincardine, Wingham and
Goderich.
"The roads weren't even paved bewt-
ween here and Wingham," he recalled.
Following that six-year period, Dr. Corrin
has only travelled to Wingham hospital.
He has also seen the doctor's office mov-
ed from his home on Outram Street to a
new medical centre established in 1976.
Fiscal. year described as
"a good one" for hospital

meeting. The medical staff, Dr. Hanlon
said, "is finding the beds at the hospital to
be taken up more and more by aging pa-
tients in need of nursing care and this has
resulted in beds becoming very scarce."
This is seen to be the medical staff's
most pressing problem, and it is expected
to become increasingly more acute in the
coming year. The situation will be ad-
dressed inthe final report of the role study,
Dr. Hanlon added.
Also at the annual meeting, the report of
the auxiliary to the Wingham and District
Hospital was presented by Mrs. Marie
Phillips, its president.,
In other business, six governors were
returned to the board by acclamation, in-
cluding Mrs. Thompson who represents
the Village of Teeswater and Township of
Culross. Also acclaimed were: Lorraine
Cook, Village of Blyth and Township of
East Wawanosh; Max Oldfield, Village of
Brussels; Jean Whitby, Village of
Lucknow and Township of Kinloss; Bob
Middleton, Wingham; and John Schenk,
Wingham.
Introduced at the meeting were new
governors Les Tervet and Doris Inglis.
Mr. Tervet is the County of Huron ap-
pointee, replacing Mr. Pike who leaves the
board at the end of this month, while Mrs.
Inglis will represent the Township of Turn -
berry. Her appointment is for one year
and she succeeds Hans Kuyvenhoven who .
has resigned with one year remaining in
his term.
But perhaps the most noticeable dif-
ference he notes is that of comparing to-
day's doctors with doctors of a few years
ago.
"When I first started, we had no time off.
Basically, we were on call 24 -hours a day
and ran evening office hours as well.
Many times you worked 24 to 36 hours at a
stretch with no sleep. Now it's not like
that."
Dr. Corrin was proclaimed Doctor of the
Year for 1984 (the Glenn Sawyer award)
and in July of 1985 Lucknow residents
hosted a special celebration for him.
All in all, the Corrins' note that the past
40 years have not only gone quickly, but
have been happy ones filled with many
memories. .
"It seems like yesterday when you look
back on it," Mrs. Corrin said.
"It's been wonderful," Dr. Corrin said.
Sunday's surprise celebration (a sur-
prise until last week's Sentinel hit the
streets) was organized by their children.
The Corrins' have six children: Donna ( a
teacher in Vancouver, B.C.), Nancy ( a
physiotherapist M Nelson, B.C.), Deborah -
Anne (pre-school co-ordinator in Beau-
mont, Alberta ), Doug (an industrial
radiology technician in Calgary), Arlene
(a nurse M Goderich) and Suzanne ( a
nurse in London) ; and 10 grandchildren.
