Campbell, who had many
seniors attending for

has made a lot of friends

With Christmas just
around the corner, Norma
will not be alone. She
will be spending it with
family. The fact she has

Christmas with Joan,

And she never misses
the Christmas dinner at
the Campbellford Seniors’
Centre, a highlight of the
season for many there.
