Once again, Saskatchewan's Telemiracle was a great success. Even in these trying times the people of this province have huge hearts. It was online this year from Saskatoon. In a 20-hour span on Feb. 27 and 28, $5.6 million was raised.
Dale McVicar from Saskatoon visited with his mother Audrey for several days last week.

With limited socializing this past year we are looking forward to two family weddings this summer. Our oldest grandson Justin will be marrying Tamara Buckingham on July 17 at Kenosee Lake.
