| Abstract/Notes |
Exerpt: When Dr. Wilfrid Oliver Morgan died on April 30, 2006, the Canadian chiropractic profession lost one of its most respected practitioners and statesmen. He was born November 24, 1922 in Norquay, Saskatchewan, to Fred and Myrtle Morgan. He graduated from Scott Collegiate in Regina, Saskatchewan, and had two siblings – Madelon, who now resides in Parksville,B.C. and John from Vancouver, who predeceased Wilf. He studied aeronautics for one year in Los Angeles, which helped to prepare him for 3½ years of service in the Royal Canadian Air Force as a pilot and flying instructor in the Second World War. On January 8, 1944, he married Geraldine (Gerry) Johnstone, also of Regina. At the end of the war, Wilf was turned down for a position as a commercial pilot because he was considered too young, at age 22. Aviation’s loss proved to be chiropractic’s gain.
