Sunshine Villa resident looks back in time
Tofield’s Sunshine Villa resident Mary Finseth aged 93 discussed what life was like before her arrival at the villa. She has been a resident since Saturday, Oct. 15, 2011.
“That was the first year that the villa had opened,” she exclaimed.
Finseth wanted to move into a home before winter, and that fall she got lucky – there were many rooms available at the villa.
Since then she has enjoyed regular visits from her children who live in the area, and is looking forward to her eldest son moving back home.
Finseth noted that her husband LeRoy had passed away in 2005, and recalled some of her most cherished memories surrounding her time spent with him.
“I have friends that I made while I was in high school who I’m still in contact with today,” she said. “It is very special to me that I’ve been able to stay in contact with these people for so many years.”
