Judy Stipsits was born and raised in Brockville, Ontario, and now resides a little further west in Burlington. She has spent her working life in many different fields like nursing student, factory worker, telephone service rep, and homebuilder. Now retired, she finally had the time to record some of the family history she would like passed on to new generations. This book is her first attempt at such a feat, but one editor who read it commented that there should be a couple more books coming from this story. It looks like Judy will have lots more work to do!
