Excerpt from Coming Home Saskatchewan Remembered

I was born in 1940 in the small town of Wynyard, Saskatchewan. My parents were farmers, and I grew up on a farm with my four siblings. Life on the farm was hard, but it was also good. We had everything we needed, and we were always surrounded by family and friends. I remember the summers best. We would spend our days swimming in the creek, playing baseball in the fields, and helping out with the farm work. In the evenings, we would sit around the campfire and sing songs. I loved growing up on the farm. It was a simple life, but it was a good life.
