Optometrist-Historian Lorne Joyce (1926-2013) was a Navy Veteran of the Second World War, an amateur Marine Historian and a local Port Credit Optometrist. Lorne was a champion of local and marine history, with a particular passion for the history of Port Credit and all things nautical. Lorne regaled our community for many years with rich stories of Port Credit, the days of the stonehooking trade, the rumrunners, and the commercial fishery that once thrived out of the Port Credit harbour.
Lorne was a long-serving member of the Mississauga South Historical Society, contributed his knowledge and expertise to several publications on local history, and was a strong supporter of Heritage Mississauga and the Marine Museum in Michigan.
Although he was never one to seek accolades or acknowledgement, in 1999 Heritage Mississauga recognized Lorne’s significant contributions to local history with the Heritage Award. In 2006 Lorne received a Cultural Heritage Award from the Ontario Heritage Trust for outstanding contributions as a volunteer with a historical society. In 2010 he received the Lieutenant Governor's Award for Lifetime Achievement.
