For this episode I interview David Boyd, a 97 year-old resident in Long-Term Care at The Village of Riverside Glen, and author of "Mighty Mouth's Crap Book". David grew up in Norval Ontario. He shares lots of incredible stories today - he fought in WWII, working in radar, locating safe places for Paratroopers to land. After the war he took a summer job installing radar in ships in Halifax. He had several more jobs before he decided to buy horses - when his father had retired and decided to move to B.C., David drove him and his belongings out in a trailer, and returned with horses, one of which was retired from a Hollywood movie. He's lived quite a life, and the pandemic's been difficult, but David has kept his sense of humour and we appreciate him sharing his stories with us.
