Episode notes

Absolute joy to meet Mary in her home today. She is a very proud and happy woman who loves Port Alberni and the area. She came to the area when both she and her husband Charlie were 24 years old. That's some 78 years ago! she gave us glimpses of her past with quick stories about golfing (yes, a hole in one on the 2nd hole!), Haggard's Cove and the hard work out there, the store across from Cherry Creek Fire Hall, the sports store in the Alberni Mall and more. What a delight!
