Doctor Donald Hood (born circa 1945) is a retired American-Canadian audiologist currently living in Halifax.
Early life
Dr Hood was born and raised in America and attended Northwestern University.
Career
Dr Hood was an audiologist and the owner of Thunder Bay Audiology, located above King's Stereo in Fort William. This business existed from about 1985 to 2005.
Marriage and children
He married Nancy Greenwald [1] in the 1970s and at some point for some reason, although she was from St. Louis and he was also American, at some point they decided to move to Thunder Bay, in Canada. They lived together on South Hill Street and together they had two children:
- Arleigh Hood (born 2 August, circa 1978) [2], living in Halifax, Nova Scotia
- Jeremy Hood (born circa 1980), married to Jaclyn Haber with two children [3], living in Woodbridge, Ontario
Dr Hood divorced Nancy in about 1993, and Dr Hood remarried to another woman and moved to Halifax.
Relationship with Michael Currie
Dr Hood gave or sold Michael's father Ron Currie his first home computer as a hand-me-down, in about 1988, which had 20 megabytes of RAM. Michael's habit of playing with the computer and causing problems led to Dr Hood coining the phrase "Pulling a Michael" which meant, unintentionally causing an unrecoverable error through curious use of the computer.
Dr Hood lived beside Michael Currie from Michael's birth until about 1993, when he divorced and moved away.
In July 2001 Michael Currie had dinner with Dr Hood and his new wife, and Jeremy Hood, at their home. That was the last time Currie saw or heard from Dr Hood.
