Director Ross Chapin and Margaret Russell The entrepreneurial spirit runs strong in the Chapin family, so it is not surprising that after he completed his university degree and two-year commitment to the United States Army, Ross Chapin joined his father's business in the production and manufacturing of food equipment. Building on these experiences he went on to receive his chartered accountancy designation with Clarkson Gordon & Co in Toronto. Leaving public practice, he started a company that was to grow from serving the local Toronto market to supplying the Canadian school and public library market with books and resource materials. His administrative skills and strong desire to serve led him to London and the University Hospital in the late 1980's. During the past 11 years, he served both University Hospital and the London Health Sciences Centre as Vice President - Finance and Information Systems. His experience with his father-in-law's struggle with Alzheimer's disease led him to truly understand that there is a great need in our society today for residences that offer people the opportunity for dignified and independent living combined with an umbrella of services that would be available to them if and when these services were needed to meet the activities of daily living. Along with his wife Cathy and the other members of the INSPIRIT team he is looking forward to serving the residents of INSPIRIT and creating an environment where they will truly enjoy the lifestyle offered.
