Dr. Craig W. Borden, M.D.

Dr. Craig Warren Borden, 88, of Little Rock, Arkansas died Monday July 19, 2004 at St. Vincent's Hospice Care. He was born August 31, 1915 in Springboro, Ohio and was the son of Dr. Carl and Ethel Borden.

Dr. Borden attended Oberlin College and received his medical degree from the Harvard Medical School in 1941. He served as an Army physician in the Pacific Theater during World War II from 1943 to 1946.

From 1947 to 1953 Dr. Borden was a Professor at the University of Minnesota Medical School. In 1953 he relocated to Chicago and for twenty-four years was associated with Northwestern University and the V.A. Research Hospital.

Throughout his career, Dr. Borden was dedicated to high standards of patient care, teaching and research. As Chair of the Medical Service at Northwestern's VA Hospital from 1954-1974, he restructured the third-year clinical clerkship and the training of residents. He excelled at bedside teaching rounds, which were rigorously conducted. His house staff became superb clinicians and some went on to become leaders in organized medicine. A major accomplishment was his work with the American Board of Internal Medicine as Chair of the Oral Examination Committee. He initiated numerous studies and evaluations of the oral exam, which led to its abandonment. His committee recommended that a resident's clinical and bedside skills should be evaluated systematically throughout his/her residency training, which remains a standard of practice today. Dr. Borden served as Vice Chair of the Residency Review Committee for Internal Medicine (1970-1971) and was founder and President of the Association of Veterans Administration Chairs of Medicine.

In 1977, Dr. Borden and his wife Stella moved to Little Rock where he worked as Director of Medical Education for Internal Medicine and as Director of Continuing Medical Education for the active staff of St. Vincent's Infirmary. He retired in 1986.

In retirement, he and his wife spent extensive time in Maui and Bayfield, Wisconsin. Dr. Borden's broad interests included classical music, literature, and politics.

Over the years he received various awards including the Northwestern Medical School Teacher of the Year and in 2001 the title of Master of the American College of Physicians. Shortly after Dr. Borden's retirement from Northwestern, plans for an annual Craig W. Borden honorary lectureship were announced.

He was preceded in death by his wife Stella, who died in 1996. He is survived by a niece and a nephew, Lois Fitzpatrick of Blue Grass, Iowa and Craig B. Loucks of Acton, Massachusetts.

A Memorial Service will be held on Wednesday, July 21, 2004 at 1:00 PM at the Second Presbyterian Church in Little Rock. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to the Arkansas Hospice, 5600 W. 12th Street, Little Rock, AR 72204.

Martha Moore Marks Dewey

Martha Moore Marks Dewey, 94, of Little Rock, widow of Lyman Henry Dewey, died Thursday, July 29, 2004 at Parkway Health Center.

A native of Warren, Arkansas, Martha moved to North Little Rock during the war to manager her family's lumber business. A graduate of the University of Arkansas and a member of the Chi Omega Sorority, she was active in both business and civic affairs. Martha met Henry Dewey during World War II when he was stationed at Camp Robinson and after their marriage, Henry worked for Alcoa and Martha continued the family business.

They were both very active in their beloved Winfield Methodist Church, which is now Quapaw Methodist, and enjoyed their mutual love of travel, golf, and antiques. Martha and Henry were authorities on early American silver, and their collection of Paul Revere silver and other pieces was displayed at both the Arkansas Arts Center and the Decorative Arts Museum, where both volunteered their time. To the neighbors and friends on North Monroe Street, Henry and Martha were well known for their hospitality and generosity.

Martha is survived by numerous great nieces and nephews. A special note of gratitude to the wonderful staff of Parkway Health Center who provided loving care to Martha.

Graveside memorial services will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Monday, August 2, 2004 at Roselawn Memorial Park. Cremation arrangements are by Ruebel Funeral Home.

Genevieve DeHaven Emmerling

Genevieve DeHaven Emmerling, of Little Rock, a distinguished figure in music throughout Arkansas and the South, died Sunday. She was 96 years old.

A child prodigy in piano performance, Genevieve Clements grew up in Benton Harbor, Michigan, concretizing and winning many regional competitions. She continued her advanced musical training at the Cosmopolitan School of Music in Chicago, where she studied under Clarence Eidem. In 1927 Genevieve Clements won first place in a national piano competition. The prize for which was a concert grand piano. The following year, Miss Clements made her concert debut at Orchestra Hall in Chicago playing the Piano Concerto in A Minor by Robert Schumann with the Chicago Symphony.

In 1930, Genevieve Clements married Robert DeHaven, a banker, in Benton Harbor and for 15 years she performed and taught in southern Michigan and Chicago. The DeHaven family moved to Little Rock when Bob DeHaven purchased and managed the Two States Fruit Package Company. Genevieve DeHaven became active in, and was elected president of the Little Rock Musical Coterie and the family became members of Trinity Episcopal Cathedral. Mrs. DeHaven was very active in the life of the Cathedral and was elected president of the Episcopal Church Women. Mr. DeHaven served as Vestryman, treasurer and then Senior Warden of the Cathedral. He died in 1969.

With her own performance career coming to an end, Mrs. DeHaven, now Mrs. Arthur Emmerling became a member of the Board of Directors of the National Federation of Music Clubs of America. For twenty five years, she and Co-Chairman, Mrs. George Jordan of Camden, served as promoters and booking agents for the winners of the National Federation Annual Music Competition. As Young Artists' chairmen they established the tradition of a concert tour throughout the state of Arkansas for a young artist each year in September. She and Mrs. Jordan were responsible for the creation of a 10-day concert tour of the state of Arkansas. They worked with Federated Music Clubs throughout the state and they arranged transportation, housing, and publicity for each city on the tour. This proved to be a welcome opportunity for music groups in the state to present world-class musicians; for the young musicians, it was in many cases, their first real concert tour. Arkansas was the first state in the nation to seize this opportunity and other states soon followed Arkansas' lead. Mrs. Emmerling enjoyed many close friendships among these Young Artists, who have become distinguished, well known professionals and have remained in close touch with her.

Last April, in Jonesboro, the Federated Music Clubs of Arkansas honored Genevieve Emmerling for her extraordinary work with Young Artists.

She was a member of The Washington National Cathedral Association and the Aesthetic Club of Little Rock and presented papers regularly, until her ninetieth birthday. Genevieve Emmerling is survived by her daughter, Cynthia DeHaven Pitcock, assistant professor in Medical Humanities at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, her son-in-law, Dr. James Allison Pitcock, two grandchildren, four great grandchildren and the Arthur Emmerling Family.

Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. Tuesday, today, at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral with the Very Reverend Henry Hudson officiating. Burial will follow in Roselawn Memorial Park. Arrangements under the direction of Ruebel Funeral Home.

Memorials to Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, 310 West 17, Little Rock, Arkansas, 72206 or the Little Rock Musical Coterie, 5706 LaMirado Dr., North Little Rock, AR 72118.
