  Noecker, born to Waterloo hotel keeper Charles Noecker in 1864, decided to enter the medical profession at a young age after attending Central School in Waterloo, and high school in Berlin (Kitchener). He graduated from the University of Toronto in 1886, and after spending a year in Vienna, Austria he returned to open a practice in his home at 54 Albert Street. _________________________ Dr. Charles T.

Noecker, dean of Twin City medical practitioners. He was quite cheerful and chatted with members of his family a short time before his passing. He had been ill since April 27th when he suffered a heart attack, and was confined to his home since that time. Since 1888 Dr. Noecker has been prominent in the medical, civic and educational life of the community. He completed 50 years of service this year as medical director of the Dominion Life Assurance Company. For twenty years he was medical officer of health, and for 43 years a member of the Waterloo Public School Board. He had an enviable record of 52 years as a practicing physician and was the first specialist in this district, his services being sought by people throughout the county. After a year in post-graduate work abroad, Dr. Noecker in 1887 started his practice in Waterloo. In 1889 he became medical director of the Dominion Life and held this responsible position until his death, and actively until April. He conducted his private practice along with his duties at the Dominion Life for over 40 years. Medical Health Officer He was the first permanent medical health officer for Waterloo. It was the practice in earlier days for the office to be passed around to a different doctor each year and Dr. Noecker took his turn at various times before the appointment was made permanent. He succeeded to the office as a permanent official upon the death of Dr. A. F. Bauman in 1918. He retired as M.O.H. in December last year. Together with the late Dr. J. F. Honsberger of Kitchener, Dr. Noecker had been honored by the North Waterloo Medical Association in 1936.

Dr. Noecker received his early education at Central public school and Berlin high school. He attended Toronto School of Medicine for four years and graduated from the University of Toronto in 1886, at the age of 21 years. He spent a year abroad in Vienna, Austria, and upon his return opened his practice in Waterloo Specialized in Surgery Dr. Noecker was an eye, ear and nose specialist, but practiced in all departments of medical surgery.
