H. Cornish PS at the end of this month. Over the past three dec- ades Mr. Roane has taught practically every subject to students from Kindergarten to Grade 8. But for the past 10 years, he has been teaching physical education full time. Mr. Roane started his teaching career in India on Jan. 6, 1960, when he was hired by the Bombay Education Society to teach sciences and math at a pri- vate school. Five days after Mr. Roane and his wife, Au- drey, and their firstborn son, Kurt, emigrated from India to Canada, he had an interview at R. H. Cor- nish PS with Howard Hall, Gord Goode Sr., Bill Williams, Roy Cornish and Brad Bradford. "It was Sept. 24, 1967 at 7 p.m. when I had the in- terview," Mr. Roane re- called.

Mr. Roane's been with the school since, and has many fond memories of a wonderful career. During his 30 years at R. H. Cornish, Mr. Roane has worked under the leadership of principals Brad Bradford, John Hogg, Murray Prentice, Harry Kiezebrink, Stan Todd and, most recently, Rick DeJong. Although Mr. Roane has taught many subjects dur- ing his teaching tenure, he's mostly remembered for his work in the gymna- sium and on the track and field. He is also one of the founding members of the Scugog Youth Soccer Club. Many young soccer players here received their initial introduction to the sport from Mr. Roane. When Mr. Roane cele- brated his 60th birthday last April, he says it was his mother-in-law who made him "see the light" - about retiring. Her hus- band had retired when he was 65, and they buried him a year later. "Life is too short and precious," Mr. Roane said. "I'm in excellent health and although I have en- joyed my teaching career, I want to enjoy my retire- ment." He'll be missed by staff and students alike. Jamie Anderson, a Grade 7 pupil at the school, says Mr. Roane was his gym teacher from Kindergarten to Grade 3. "He was absolutely won- derful," he says. Mr. Roane was Dave Lowe's coach for soccer, hurdles and gym. The Grade 8 student has al- © ways had a positive out- look on sports, and credits his success to Mr. Roane. "He always urged us to do our best. Through his encouragement I've al- ways excelled in sports," he said. After he retires, Mr. Roane wants to tackle a long list of jobs around home, and anticipates some travelling, too. He and his wife bought a trailer last year and plan to travel in their adopted country. "We've been in Canada for 30 years, but have nev- er ventured outside of On- tario," he says. A farewell party is being held Monday, June 16 from 4 - 6 p.m. in the pri- mary gym. At the party, a gift presentation will be made at 4:30 p.m.
