143 - Freda Reid (The Village of Riverside Glen)

For this episode I interview Freda Reid, a resident at The Village of Riverside Glen. Freda grew up outside Arthur, starting life on a farm, and returned to farming when she got married as an adult and moved to Hillsburg. Freda talks a bit about farming life, and she also shares about training and working as a nurse, attending the dances, drumming in the high school band, and working as a bookkeeper with her best friend Maureen. And Maureen is a special story herself - they have been friends for decades, and even at Freda's 90 years, Maureen is still by her side, because by beautiful coincidence they are both residents at Riverside Glen. Thank you Freda for sharing your story! Thank you Maureen for making an appearance and being such a wonderful friend!
