<div itemprop="description">Dr. David Sackin <br />1931-2015 <br /> <br />After a rich and satisfying life, David Sackin died peacefully, just short of his 84th birthday. <br /> <br />He was a child psychiatrist and psychoanalyst. He was founding director of the Child Psychiatry Clinic at Milwaukee Children's Hospital, and was at Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children for 15 years. He was in private practice in Toronto until his 82nd birthday in 2013. <br /> <br />David was an avid birdwatcher, a music and theatre lover, and a voracious reader. He was a wonderful cook. <br /> <br />He leaves his wife Pauline, son Daniel (Toey), and was predeceased by daughter Julia. <br /> <br />David was cremated, according to his wishes. <br /> <br />A memorial service will be held in the chapel at the Mount Pleasant Cemetery Visitation Centre, 375 Mount Pleasant Road, on Wednesday, May 6th, from 1:00 - 1:45 PM.
