Douglas Richard MacQuarrie lost his battle with advanced Hodgkin’s lymphoma last Wednesday, March 19th 2025. He was at Lions Gate hospital for over a period of 5 months, in and out. We thank all the nurses and doctors, specifically in Palliative care, that were able to bring some relief to my father.

Tom was born in Hamilton, Ontario on Oct 4, 1938. Following his medical training at the University of Toronto, he returned to Vancouver for a long and satisfying career as one of the last old-fashioned family doctors, practicing for 42 years at Marpole Medical. Retirement did not suit Tom, so he continued part-time at Healthvue Medical, a family practice clinic in Steveston, for another decade, only stopping last March due to illness.
