671 Nancy moved to Gary, Indiana with her mother when she was 5 years old when her dad had to go to Denver because of his severe sinus trouble in Chicago. Her mother (Kathryn) had a wonderful teaching job in Gary. Each summer for 10 years we (Nancy & Kathryn) would go to Denver to be with my dad; and mother would try to get a teaching job there. Because of the Depression, they wouldn’t hire married women teachers in Denver; so we would go back to Gary where her job was secure. When I was 15 We finally moved to Denver for good when my dad was secure with his floor sanding business. I went to South High School and loved skiing, square dancing, ice skating and playing tennis with Daphne Bainter. At the University of Denver I loved square dancing there with the Pioneer Promenaders and enjoyed my Alpha Gamma Delta Sorority. After graduating from D.U. I flew a few months with TWA. Was married to John Horne in 1946, and Suzie was born a year later. We moved to Everett, WA when John was transferred with Safeco Insurance Co. Peter and Cindy were born in Everett. In 1968 we moved to Portland. Herriman, Nancy Curtiss (I78)

Was superintendent of Ontario Hosp. in Cobourg 1927-1932. Source: The Canadian Biographical Dictionary: Canada’s oldst practitioner in the field of psychiatry, Dr. William Choate Herriman, 78, who had served on the staffs of most of Ontario’s mental hospital. At the time of his retirement in July 1933, he was medical superintendent of the Ontario Hospital, 999 Queen St. W. Toronto.

He was the third generatio of his family to practice medicine. His father was instrumental in the founding of Queen’s University Medical School. Dr. Herriman belonged to one of the most prominent of the later U.E.L. families of the Port Hope-Cobourg district.

He graduated from the U. of Toronto in 1890 and practiced with his father for a short time in Lindsay. Keenly interested in psychiatry, he decided to make that branch of science his life work, and he served for nearly 40 years in that field. He took a leading part in the introduction in Canada of the continuous path and other modes of treatment of mental illness. He was also active in the advancement of social reforms.

Dr. Herriman ha held positions as assistant physician at Ontario Hospitals at Orillia, Hamilton and Kingston; superintendent at Mimico and Toronto, medical director at Orillia and superintendent at Cobourg. Before his retirement he returned to Toronto as medical superintendent of the hospital.

Dr. Herriman was a member of Durham County Old Boys’ Association and the United Church. As an alienist he gave expert evidence at many murder trials of nationwide interest, including the famous Morrison trial at Whitby. Sentenced to serve the remainder of his life in Kingston Penitentiary, William Morrison who had been convicted of manslaughter in the killing of his wife, it was believed owed his life to the evidence given by Dr. Herriman.

His obituary said he was survived by his daughter, Dorothy Choate Herriman, known in Canadian literary circles.

680 Newspaper quote: ...married Tues. evening 7 p.m. to George Robert Curtiss. They lived in Lansing after the wedding. Harry Turner was best man (I have Wedgewood pices that he gave them for a wedding present.
She was a wonderful grandma and had a good sense of humor. She was one
of the early feminists, and marched the streets for the right to vote--a
Curtiss believe it or not! She was elegant!
She told me once that she could have married a very wealthy man. He
asked her to "row down life's stream" with him; but she told him "no,
that she would probably have to do all the rowing!"

A quote and some of her thoughts:

"It's not what I say, it's what I mean!!"

"It isn't life that matters so much: It is courage you give to it."

"We are creater of our destiny."

"There isn't so much sacrificing for children as is thought--we are just
up against too strong an adversary (?)"

"Inherent American objection to being told what to do and what not to
do."

"Most precious of all posessions is 2nd (?) existence (a friend). We
reflect in our friends the hunger of our heart. We die a little every
time we lose a friend. It takes a great deal of understanding to gain a
friend. Lots of loving, forgiving invested--but dividends begin at
once. Never cut off when trouble comes. Remains like a guardian. Sooo
start your life off with a friend! Most precious of all possessions.
Choose carefully."

"Have faith - Be cheerful - Be happy with the belief you can move
mountains (Claude Driscoll, Magic of Believing)"
