Ep 279 - Femmy Vandervelde (The Village of Riverside Glen)

Bridging the Social Distance · Oct 8, 2025 · 55m

For this episode I interview Femmy Vandervelde, a new resident at The Village of Riverside Glen. Femmy reflects on her childhood in Holland during the German occupation, her family’s move to Canada as a teenager, her education and career in nursing and how her life changed during the years, which included years on a farm, in the city, and eventually here in Guelph. Femmy shows off her knitting (I’d never heard of a “twiddle muff”!) and we had a lovely time. Thank you Femmy!
