About Lorraine’s Pharmacy

Front Store Staff

Marjorie Page
Head Cashier

Marjorie Page

Mother of two. Joined Lorraine’s Pharmacy in 1987.  As head cashier, Marj is responsible for all the other cashiers as well as for ordering and stocking the extensive magazine and Hallmark Card sections at Lorraine’s Pharmacy.  Marj is one of the more customer-oriented employees in the front store, where she can often be heard laughing along with customers and keeping the mood pleasant for shoppers.  However, you know when things are getting busy and there is no time for small talk when you hear Marj calling out “Barb!!!” from the front cash! 

Outside of the pharmacy, Marj is a dedicated wife and mother who enjoys spending time with her family; husband – Tony, and two children – Wendy and Damian.  Marj’s hobbies include gardening, reading, and decorating her home.  However, we think Marj should open up her own Wedding Shop since she’s been known to attend more weddings each year than all the other pharmacy staff combined! 

Barbara Prince
Cashier

Barbara Prince

Mother of three. Joined Lorraine’s Pharmacy in 1994.  Barb is considered one of the hardest working employees at Lorraine’s Pharmacy where she always keeps busy.  Aside from her duties on cash, she is most often roaming the isles with a shopping cart in tow, full of stock to put out, or doing other projects for Peter or Donna.  She is a considered a Jack-of-all-trades at the pharmacy.

Outside of the pharmacy, Barb is a dedicated wife and mother who enjoys spending time with her family; husband – Brian, and three children – Jennifer, Stacey, and Philip, not to mention her four grandchildren.  Barb’s hobbies include reading and playing cards, and she is an avid animal lover (3 dogs and 1 cat!).  However, we think Barb should have her own home improvement show, as there’s nothing she won’t try.  She’s been known to replace her own drywall, pour concrete, clean the chimney, or anything else you throw at her.  Go Barb!

Heather Phanenhour
Photo Technician/Cashier

Heather Phanenhour

Mother of two.  Joined Lorraine’s Pharmacy in 2004.  Heather can be found in either the photo department or on cash on any given day at Lorraine’s.  Besides her double duties, she can often be found joking around with Marj or Barb and helping customers. 

Outside of Lorraine’s Pharmacy, Heather enjoys spending time with her family; husband – Terry and sons – Dustin and Tyler.  She also enjoys outdoor activities and her favorite pastime, photography.  So don’t be fooled by her smile, she says she’d much rather be the photographer than the subject!

 

 

Marilyn McMillan
Head Photo Technician

Mother of two.  Joined Lorraine’s Pharmacy in 2008 as head photo technician.  Marilyn is a very helpful and cheerful person who enjoys the challenges of working in Barry’s Bay Photo.  She has fit in very nicely with the Lorraine’s Pharmacy staff and they are happy to have her on board.

Outside of the pharmacy, Marilyn enjoys spending time with her husband Bill, being Mom to Megan and Kaley, and Nana to Ryan.  She also enjoys travelling south, shopping, visiting with friends, taking pictures and outdoor activities such as gardening, downhill skiing, and four-wheeling.  F.Y.I. – Marilyn’s nickname is “Smiley” for the obvious reason that she is smiling all the time (duh!).  Call her Smiley the next time you see her in photo and see if she answers the call . . . . ;-)


Joanne Prince
Photo Technician/Cashier

Joanne Prince

Mother of three.  Joined Lorraine’s Pharmacy in 2005.  Joanne, just like Heather, is a “double agent” working in both the photo and front store departments.  She can often be found serving customers and kidding around with her co-workers on the front cash.

Outside of Lorraine’s Pharmacy, Joanne enjoys spending time with her family; husband – James and children – Justin, Jeremy, and Emma.  She also enjoys reading, cooking, and especially shopping.  In fact, sources in the front store tell us that she can be spotted shopping at Lorraine’s Pharmacy almost as often as she works there!  She has also been known to mistakenly steep packages of silica gel in her tea, so never accept a free cup of tea from Joanne; you may get more than you bargained for!
