For this episode I interview Thelma Barbeau, a recent new resident in Long-Term Care at The Village of Riverside Glen. Thelma is 100 years old and six months, and she seems to remember her whole life. She shares stories of being a young wife with a husband in the war during WWII, the depression, raising a family in the -post war years, and how proud she is of everything her family has accomplished. She's a hard worker too - for 22 years she volunteered helping support people with mental health struggles, and she continues to work, her current focus being on regaining her ability to walk after a recent fall. We appreciate the time Marilyn took to share with us today, and wish her luck and strength as she regains her physical health.
