Freeway Cafe - Seniors Group

A young author, a friend of Jeanette's,came to read her book to us and I found it most enjoyable.

Catherine Wiebe read from her book"Second Rising" and read most eloquently and expressively.

For those who are interested in a link to her work, please go to:

She was writing about her grandmother and in many ways, her grandmother could be any older woman and the wonderful memories of a life well lived.




Our group was larger than normal as staff members brought over some people from Rebecca Street. It was good to see them.

I was very pleased for the young woman who read. She was a very good reader and I am glad there was a good crowd.

All in all, a very pleasant afternoon was spent listening to her story and talking to her.
