Person:Gladys Johnston (2)

In 1958, Gladys came to live with Grandma Myrtle Moffat in Asquith, Saskatchewan. Grandma Myrt's memory was slipping and she could no longer live alone. We have slides of Grandma and Gladys at Waskesiu in July 1958, and on a trip to the Rockies in 1959. By December 1961, Gladys had returned to Ontario.
