WOODRUFF,
Doctor
Merrill
Emerson, O.D., M.A., PhD.
(February 3, 1925-May 8, 2005)
After a long illness, Emerson
WOODRUFF of Waterloo, passed away
at Chateau Gardens, Elmira on May 8, 2005.
Merrill Emerson
WOODRUFF was born in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada.
After completing high school, he served in the Royal Canadian
Air Force. He was discharged in 1945 with the rank of Flying
Officer, and soon after began his optometric studies at the College
of Optometry of Ontario. When Doctor
WOODRUFF graduated in 1950,
he received the J.C. Thompson Memorial award for highest achievement
in theoretical optometry.
Doctor WOODRUFF practiced optometry in West Lorne and Blenheim,
Ontario from 1950 to 1962. He was also an active member of the
Ontario Association of Optometrists. He served as the local society
president and later as vice-president of the Ontario Association
of Optometrists. In the early 1960s, Doctor
WOODRUFF was a co-author
and presenter of the Ontario Association of Optometrists' brief
to the Royal Commission on Health Services in Canada.
In 1963, Doctor
WOODRUFF began his graduate studies at Indiana University.
In the first year of his PhD program in physiological optics,
he authored a position paper entitled 'The Effective Utilization
of Optometrists within the Programs of the Department of Health,
Education, and Welfare' for the American Optometric Association.
While completing his PhD studies, Doctor
WOODRUFF was appointed
as a lecturer in optometry at Indiana University. In 1966, he
became an Assistant Professor.
In 1967, Doctor
WOODRUFF accepted the posts of Associate Professor
of Optometry and Director of Clinics at the School of Optometry,
University of Waterloo. In 1967, he was co-author of the University's
brief to the Ontario Government's Committee on the Healing Arts
in Ontario.
As clinic Director, Doctor
WOODRUFF became part of a faculty team
that introduced several innovative concepts (such as mobile clinics
and satellite clinics) to clinical teaching. Some programs focused
on geriatric care and particularly on improving refractive care
of infants and children. This area was the subject of Doctor
WOODRUFF's
Doctoral dissertation. Clinics were operated in certain Caribbean
Islands, throughout much of northern Ontario, and
in New Brunswick
and Manitoba. In northern Ontario, the visual problems of several
thousand Cree Indian children were attended to in these clinics.
Doctor WOODRUFF taught environmental optics, which relates visual
abilities and vocational and avocational activities. He also
taught a variety of clinical and theoretical subjects including
Geometric Optics, Visual Physiology, Children's Vision Care,
Ocular Pathology, Anatomy of the Visual Apartus, and Clinical
Pathology.
From 1975 to 1981, Doctor
WOODRUFF served as Director
of the School of Optometry at the University of Waterloo.
Over the years, Doctor
WOODRUFF has lectured to numerous societies
on a broad range of clinical and theoretical aspects of vision
care. He has testified as an expert witness for the Indiana and
Wisconsin State Boards and for several Canadian Royal Commissions.
He also served as a consultant to the Ministry of health of New
Brunswick.
Doctor WOODRUFF has been a member of the Graduate Studies Committee,
Faculty of Science, and Graduate Officer for Waterloo's School
of Optometry. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Optometry,
a member of the American Optometric Association, the Canadian
Association of Optometrists, the Ontario Association of Optometrists,
Sigma Xi, and the Association for Research in Ophthalmology.
Doctor WOODRUFF was appointed to the Waterloo Regional Health Planning
Council and later became Chairman of the Waterloo District Health
Council.
Doctor WOODRUFF's academic excellence was widely acknowledged. In
addition to being the recipient of many academic awards, he received
scholarships and research grant awards of over $150,000. He retired
from the University of Waterloo in 1990.
He was a deeply loved and loving husband to his wife Doris, his
daughters, Elaine
CADELL and partner Greg
CORNFORTH,
Ann
SIMPSON
and husband David, Susan
