SAYINGS OF THE SAGES - WOLFE

Ruth Patterson Wolfe, June 8, 1914 - October 29, 2008

Ruth Wolfe was a teacher, pioneer with her husband Elmo,
and organizer of many volunteer projects. She was awarded
with "Canada's Voluneer of the Year" and was presented with this
honour in Ottawa.
You can expect to read many of her sayings as well as her
poetry in my future blogs. Her credit line will appear each time
as we continue to be challenged with her writings.

As a lifetime member of Schubert Center she gave a reading
on Talent Night that encouraged others to spend more of
their retirement days doing volunteer work. Her presentation
closed with these words:
"SO WELCOME NEW FRIENDS, RECYCLE YOURSELVES,
Join Schubert Centre's happy fairies and elves!"
