Clinton News-Record, 1985-5-15, Page 13• Fallows Centenariaii .,!jes Charles P. Dunlop The death, Saturday, May 4th, at Huron - view, of 100 -year-old Charles P. Dunlop, removes from Huron County one of its oldest citizens. He was born September 23rd, 1884, at the "Dunlop Homestead" on the Bayfield Road about five miles south of Goderich and was the son of the late Hugh/Kate (Stewart) Dunlop. Along with his younger brother, Robert and sister Alice, he attended a one room rural school in the township. After acquiring his elementary educa- tion, he went to work at an early age; for a number of years he was employed in Goderich, first as a laborer at a sawmill at Goderich harbor. Later, he was a "messenger" fora former Goderich lawyer, named `Dancey'. While still a young man, he moved • to Eastern Ontario. During the era of the First World War (1914-'18) he was employed at an Oshawa factory where steel ranges (kitchen stoves) and accessories were manufac- tured. Following World War I, he moved to Toronto where he started workinn for the 'T. Eaton Dept. Store' Firm as a sewing machine serviceman. While in Toronto, he met a young girl from Owen Sound. Later, Harriett- Thompson became the wife of Chas. P. Dunlop and the couple resided in Toronto a number of years. She predeceased him. Following his retirement, Mr. Dunlop returned in 1957, to his hometown. While a resident in Goderich, he was a tenant, for more than 20 years, at the home of Mrs. Margaret Oliver, at 92 St.David Street. In June, 1983, the long-time St. David Street senior was moved to Huron County's home for the aged, Huronview, south of Clin- ton. Last September on the occasion of his 100th Birthday, Clinton News -Record "staf- fer", Anne Narejko interviewed the century -old citizen who then attributed his long life to "plenty of sleep, relaxation and careful dieting" and, "abstaining from alcohol and tobacco". Ironically, Mr. Dunlop's "room -mate" at Huronview, Nor- man Ball, reached the century milestone un- ly a couple of days after Mr. Dunlop's birth- day. Both Huronview residents were pic- tured/profiled in a September (19th), 1984 edition of the News Record in connection with the "double celebration". • During his latter years in Goderich he was unable to attend any church service, but, when it was first established in 1963, Mr. Dunlop attended services at Calvary Baptist on Bayfield Road, Goderich. While in Toron- to, he was a member of the Non - Denominational, People's Church. Surviving are: A sister-in-law, Mrs. H. (Winnifred) Thompson of Owen Sound and a friend (former landlady) Margaret Oliver of Goderich; he 'was predeceased by a brother, Robt. Dunlop, (1969 ).

He said it all depends on luck. Someone's bad luck and death means good luck and life to someone else. The most needed organ is the kidney and twelve hundred new 'patients in Canada go on dialysis each year. There are between five and six hundred kidneys donated each year with a waiting list between eight hun- dred and one thousand. He urged each one of us to make a commitment while we're still alive. We'll probably never have to honour • the commitment unless the situation •is just right but it is a• real privilege to give the gift of life to someone. • ' Margaret Engeland of Stratford introduc- ed the second speaker of the evening, Mrs. Barbara Hicks, of Clinton, who'spoke on in- ner healing.
