I’ve been at Warrigal Bundanoon for 30 years. I started in nursing. I love the one-on-one time with residents and hearing their stories. They share their life stories, and they also want to hear your life story so residents become part of your family.

I wish I had written a book, there have been so many stories. Ladies used to tell me yarns about what it was like getting around on a horse and buggy.

There was a man named John, he was very nice, he used to be a sheep farmer. He used to think I was his wife and treat me so and chase me around all the time! All the ladies would be giggling!”
