Dr doesn't take an S.

I assume you mean that there is no s in Drs... In this case there is because it was a family of doctors, all named Geggie. Hence the plural Drs.

Just a clarification: the Doctors Geggie (Harold--founder of the hospital, and sons Hans, David and Stuart--my father) did not actually live in this building. Harold purchased it from the former owner and donated it to the community as a home for the new Gatineau Memorial Hospital in 1952.

I, too, was born in the delivery room, upstairs. My father delivered me!
