Mom grew up in Windsor, ON where she began her career in advertising working in Detroit. She was also active in Windsor's Baptist Young People's. It was through these friendships that she met Dad. They married in 1954 when she relocated to Toronto where she lived for over 60 years. Mom was a faithful Baptist. Her life was full. In addition to attending church, she enjoyed her family life, friends, working & constantly learning, travelling to many parts of the world and cottaging at her beloved Deanlea Beach on Georgian Bay.
