Queens Medicine May 1957. May 22nd, 1957 he married the love of his life nurse Janet Maureen Colterjohn. He did his postgrad in Ottawa, Kingston and Hamilton where son David (retired Alberta) was born. In 1958, he and family moved to Picton, Ontario where he opened his first General Practice. He joined the Kiwanis club, was President in 1964 and continued as an important part of the club for over 45 years. Over the years, the family grew Donald (retired Nova Scotia), Gordon (retired Belleville) and Janet (retired Kingston). The family lived on a 55-acre hobby farm just outside of Picton with horses and cattle at various times. He spent his summers going to horse shows, baling hay, enjoying the water sports on Consecon Lake, and every July 1st, attending the Kingston family reunion which started the year he was born, continues to this day (90+ years) and is the longest continuous running family reunion in Canada. His winters were filled with hockey starting when his sons were children and continued until Donald started playing for the Wellington Dukes and he became team doctor. He then continued as team doctor (his favorite hobby) for over 35 yrs, retiring on his 80th birthday. LeRoy was the Coroner for Prince Edward County for over 28 years, was Chief of Staff twice at Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital as well as serving 4 years on the board of directors for the OMA. Over the years, he assisted with bringing many new doctors to the County. In 1987 he received a scholarship for ENT training. After over 30 years of General practice and the delivery of hundreds of babies, he retired
and continued with his ENT practice.
LeRoy loved to drive. He and Maureen drove an RV all over North America including a caravan trip to Mexico. LeRoy and Maureen loved to travel so much they purchased a travel agency. Cruises were the favorite way to travel. They travelled all over the world and even enjoyed a 79 day world cruise. During his later years he loved puzzling and his precious Toronto Blue Jays, Wellington Dukes
and his Toronto Maple Leafs.
