Bolton MHS '61 |

After dabbling in several unfulfilling jobs, Peter considered the collection of teachers in his family and decided to try his hand at the profession. A year at Ottawa Teachers' College (1965-'66) led to a position in the junior grades at Sir John Johnson PS in Cornwall, where he worked with amazing kids. In 1968 Barbara Kyle (WHHS 1966) was daft enough to marry him and give up the city life, settling in his ancestral home of Port Hope, where they raised two daughters, Cinnamon and Jessica. He retired from teaching special education in 1998 and he and Barbara have devoted the intervening years to family, friends, travel, genealogy and volunteer work - most notably at the Capitol, Canada's only operational atmospheric theatre. Life has been grand! | ![]() |

After West Hill, Bruce went on to McGill and graduated with an Electrical Engineering degree. After working with Ontario Hydro for 18 months, he decided to satisfy his wanderlust and worked in New Zealand for 6 months, then continued around the world with a backpack and sleeping bag, and rejoined Ontario Hydro in 1961. He worked in a variety of technical and supervisory positions in Windsor, London, and Orangeville, and retired from Hydro in 1993. Married, with three daughters and five grandchildren, he now lives in Kingston Ont. For fun, he plays tenor banjo in two Dixieland bands. He enjoyed his years at West Hill tremendously, and is very pleased to have been able to contribute to this much-appreciated website | ![]() Bruce McLachlan, Andy Allerton,, Bill Buckberrough, Bob Trotter and Grant Peterson.
