CARLTON ORCHINIK

ORCHINIK DR. CARLTON WEBSTER Died on August 7, 2021, three weeks before his 101st birthday. Dr. Orchinik was a clinical psychologist. He was the Chief Psychologist at the Municipal Court of Philadelphia for 38 years, where he worked with at-risk adolescents. He provided psychological evaluations and therapy there and at the Youth Study Center in Philadelphia, the Child Care Service in Delaware County, the AFL Medical Center, and the Camden County Psychiatric Hospital. He also had a private practice. He received his bachelor's and PhD in psychology at Temple University, and a master's degree from the University of Pennsylvania. He served as communications officer in the U.S. Navy on LST 240 in the Pacific during WWII. Dr. Orchinik was a life-long learner with an engaging manner, who took delight in scientific discoveries. His curiosity for learning was contagious. He had a keen interest in educational psychology and was a regular contributor to local school board meetings. Even in his later years, he could be found with a book or scientific journal, eager to discuss science, politics, history or literature. He had a deep, life-long commitment to social justice. Carlton was born in Philadelphia in 1920. His parents, Leia and Samuel, were immigrants from Ukraine. He was a family man: a proud father, uncle, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He is survived by his wife Sarah Beth Orchinik, children Miles, Leah, and Julia, and grandchildren Aaron, Evan, Jackson, Reed, Maya, Arelie, Lachlan, and Elio. Carlton was predeceased by a son, Jeffery Orchinik; a daughter, Valerie Crockett; his sisters, Jane Orchinik and Grace Toll; and a granddaughter, Emily Crockett.
