"I live in Vancouver, BC, and am looking for some family for my old high school counsellor, Hilda Cryderman, from Vernon, BC. It sounds like the one in your tree may be her. Hilda literally saved me, by taking a loan at the bank so I could get away from my abusive stepfather and go to university. I heard that she had died many years ago, but don't know if anyone in her family knows what she did for me. I thanked her and repaid the loan, but still feel that I would like to tell someone about how she changed my life. Can you help me? ... Thanks a lot." (name of sender withheld)89 |
