In 1956, Janet and he moved to the small town of Nipawin in Northern Saskatchewan, where he practiced old-time general medicine - delivering babies, taking out tonsils, appendix and making house calls. Even though he was a busy physician, he found time to hunt ducks, deer and even moose. During the summer months he found his passion for golf.

In 1964, the family moved to Watsonville, CA where he continued to practice general medicine for 27 years. Retiring in 1991, Percy and Janet moved to St. George where Bloomington Country Club became his second home.

Now he joins his golfing buddies that have gone before him.
