Dear Carter Club Members, it was recently brought to my attention that we lost another Duke alumnus this past November.
Dr. Richard "Herb" Wiebe passed away peacefully at his home at age 83. He was a proud Canadian who graduated from the University of Saskatchewan Medical School in 1962. While in medical school, he managed to write, direct and star in a musical titled "Medico Mania."
He did his Ob/Gyn residence in Galveston, and in the late 60s, was one of Duke's first REI fellows, if not the very first. He was on faculty at Duke, the University of Southern Alabama, the University of South Dakota and East Tennessee State University before his retirement in 1998. He is survived by his wife of 46 years, Jacquelyn.
His full obituary can be found at the Wilmington Funeral and Cremation website.
