  Joseph Seagram 

  Bio

  Joe came to King’s-Edgehill School in 2008. It doesn’t seem all that long ago but, in those days, dorm rooms had landlines and student cell phones were prohibited. Much has changed since then! Having boarded at Trinity College School in his high school years and received degrees from the Universities of Toronto and Calgary, Joe took his love of education to Kenya where he taught for two years at an international boarding school. Returning to Canada Joe worked for the Toronto Ontario Olympic Committee for several years before joining the faculty at Trinity College School where he taught for ten years. Joe was Headmaster of Rosseau Lake College for nine years. Coming to King’s-Edgehill meant a return to Nova Scotia where Joe lived as boy, and a return to a boarding and day school with hundreds of years of tradition and history which he loves.
  
  

  Joe lives on the KES campus in Alexandra Hall with his wife, Dr. Belinda Seagram. Their four children attended KES.

  Margaret Rock 

  Bio

  Born December 24, 1944 in Halifax and raised in Dartmouth/Woodside, Margie graduated from the Nova Scotia Hospital School of Nursing in 1966 and pursued her passion for psychiatric nursing as a registered nurse. In 1970 she married then Ensign Kenneth Rock, US Coast Guard, and was whisked off to the USA. Just this year (2020) they celebrated their 50^th wedding anniversary. Throughout these exciting years, Margie have continued her nursing career, raised her two sons, and even survived family home moves through nine separate homes. Further, Margie had the opportunity to travel extensively throughout the world with her family. Most important has been her “annual migration” back to Nova Scotia to spend time with family, nursing classmates and friends.
  
  Margie was introduced to Heather Strickey (KES Director of Advancement and Alumni Affairs), at a KES Alumni event in Orlando, Florida several years ago, and that has resulted in her reconnection with many KES classmates and more recent graduates at many memorable alumni gatherings in Florida, PEI and on the KES campus. Margie have always felt blessed that her parents agreed with her that she should be an “Edgehill Girl” thus expanding her horizons and opening her eyes and mind to the joy and possibilities this world possesses. Margie's recent retirement from the nursing profession has allowed her the time to enjoy traveling, her role as Nana to her six grandchildren and the honor to be a part of the Inglis Education Foundation Board at KES.
