I am happy and grateful that …



This is the gist of a speech I gave at Toastmasters at noon today.
“I’LL SHOW EM”
This a toast to my great aunt who died in Peterborough about 5 years ago
Life Lessons, a love story, happy reunion and unexpected twist.  

She was unique with a zest for life.
Expect the unexpected
She was a private person, she didn’t tell people her business and I learned from my dad not to mess with her

She worked at the same seniors’ home in Toronto for about 25 years and when she retired they bought their first home in Peterborough. It was a their house, master bedroom and bathroom on the 1st floor and the basement was awesome the previous owner did a lot of work 
My uncle had a camp on a lake south of Bancroft so it was what they always wanted being within an hours drive
