This episode features an absolutely delightful guest, Tony Ferraro, a resident at The Village of Riverside Glen. Tony's stories of old Guelph go straight to the heart - he came to Canada as an Italian immigrant, lived in the ward, and worked and met his wife at Biltmore Hats. He became the most devoted husband, determined she would never want for anything, even traveling to her area of Riverside Glen when they lived in separate parts of the building, to help her with her meals. Since her recent passing, he's only wore shirts with breast pockets, so he can carry a photo of her at all times. He's such a special fellow. Thank you Tony for sharing your story!
