I was born in Moosomin Saskatchewan, and raised on a farm nearby. I have one sister, Shirley McCormich that lives in Vancouver. The farm was a cattle and grain farm, consisting of 640 acres. I attended a one room school house which was 3 miles from my home, we had to go to school by horse and cutter in the winter and horse and buggy in the summer. During the summer I worked on the farm putting up hay for the cattle and helping with other chores. We had a modern house for the standards of those days, we were the first in the community to have indoor plumbing. Unfortunately, a year after my father modernized our home, our house
burnt down due a malfunctioning gas stove. We lost everything in the fire except for a trunk containing our bathing suits, a blanket and love letters that my Father wrote to my Mother. After several days of sifting through the ashes, my sister Shirley found my Mothers diamond ring. During that winter we lived in a new double garage that was next to the house that burnt. My Father then built a new home during that same year.

When I finished public school I had to board away from home at a small community where I attended High School. After finishing High School I went to Moose Jaw where I took a two year Architectural Technology course. Upon completion I found work with the Saskatchewan Department of Municipal Affairs. I worked three years with that department and then found work with the Regina Branch of Canada Mortgage and Housing. After working there two years I was transferred to the Ottawa office and remained there until retirement in 1997.
