BRUCE DAVID McCREARY
Dr. Bruce McCreary passed away at Kingston General Hospital on November 15, 2017. He was 78. Raised on a farm near Smiths Falls, Ontario, a summer job at the Rideau Regional Centre led to a lifelong passion for working with the developmentally disabled. Bruce attended Queen’s University for medical school and pursued a residency in psychiatry. There he met his wife Carolyn and they began their life together. Bruce was committed to his patients and their families and conducted clinics across eastern Ontario for 50 years, as well as at home in Kingston. At Queen’s, Bruce was Professor Emeritus in the Department of Psychiatry. He was teaching medical students until he became too ill to do so this fall. In 2003, the Canadian Psychiatric Association awarded Bruce the Roberts Award, recognizing him for his clinical work and leadership in the field of developmental disabilities. Bruce was even more committed to his family and former colleagues. They are grieving his loss. Bruce will be missed by his wife Carolyn, his children Rick (Lois), Janet (Bernard), Alison (Martin) and Andrew (Paula). Awesome Grandpa to Alison, Kevin, Liam, Jacob and Ruby. Bruce is also survived by his brother Robert. A ceremony to mark the passing of Bruce will be held at Ongwanada Community Resource Centre, 191 Portsmouth Avenue in Kingston on Sunday, November 19 at 2:00 p.m., to be followed by a reception in the atrium.
