Hometown: Brudenell

Years in Special Olympics: 9 Years

Work Place: Retired

Aspect of Games Most Looking Forward to: Seeing the emotions or the athletes as they excel at their sport. 

Favorite Special Olympics Moment: On two separate occasions my daughter has joined athletes from other provinces to form a relay team (swimming and skiing). I feel so fulfilled when this happens - to see in the first place that the athletes can be so committed to their own provincial team but then when the occasion arises they can join together with other provinces and compete as if they were together all along. It shows that all of Special Olympics is more about camaraderie than competition....I like that.
