When Dr. Marion Powell died suddenly before Christmas last year, she left behind a legacy of women and children, in Japan as well as in Canada, who owe their lives to her skill and compassion as well as to her determination to take risks if she could save lives or improve the quality of life.
In 1952, Marion and her husband, Rev. Donald Powell, were sent to Japan as missionaries by The Presbyterian Church in Canada (PCC), appointed to work with the Korean Christian Church in Japan (KCCJ). Marion's passion was medicine. By 1955, she had found her niche as the obstetrician and gynaecologist on the staff of the newly opened Yodogawa Christian Hospital in Osaka.
