ROGER CORRIN Obituary

January 9, 1936 - March 27, 2025 It is with great sadness, we announce the passing of Dr. Roger Corrin, at the age of 89, at University Hospital, London Health Sciences Centre. Roger was born in London, Ontario, to Margaret Ivy and Robert Arthur Corrin. He attended London South Collegiate Institute and went on to the University of Western Ontario, graduating from Medical School in 1961. Roger completed his residencies in Adult and Child Psychiatry in Toronto. He returned to London and began working at the Children's Psychiatric Research Institute (CPRI). In addition to his clinical work at CPRI, Roger served as Chief of Children's Service and as Acting Director of Treatment, Training, and Research. After retiring from CPRI, he worked in the Student Counselling Service at the University of Western Ontario. Roger was a kind and loving person who had a great sense of humour. Roger is survived by his wife of 35 years, Rosalind Stacey-Corrin; his children, Dean (Kelly), Anna (Serafino Santavicca), Adam, and Justin; his sister, Roberta Machan (Glen); his granddaughters, Abby (Blair Vander Glas), Jenna, Alexandra, Kyanna, and Laura Santavicca; his nephew, Mark Machan, and his niece, Nicole Machan. Throughout his life, Roger enjoyed the out-of-doors: family vacations at Pointe Clark and at Lake of Bays, African safaris, and trips to the Arctic and Antarctica. At home, Roger enjoyed landscaping, working with stained glass, carpentry, and daily walks with his dog. Roger was an enthusiastic competitor at table tennis, joining his friends at the Huff n' Puff Seniors Fitness Association and competing in the London Senior Games. Cremation has taken place. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to UNICEF Canada or to a Charity of Your Choice.

Roger was a highly respected colleague, He contributed immensely at CPRi and assumed increased clinical and administrative responsibility after my departure. His calm empathetic demeanour was a model for staff and students.
