Hi everyone. I lived in Shilo from 1950-59 and again from 1961-68. From 1950-59 we lived at #26 Esquimalt Crescent and upon returning in 1961 at#17 Sennybridge until 1963, then at #32 Sennybridge through 1968. When I looked for these PMQs at the 2005 reunion, #17 Sennybridge had been torn down (sigh). Many good memories of my youth in Shilo, mis-spent and otherwise. My father, Ed, was a clerk at headquarters and a member of the RCA. My mother's name was Hilda. I have one brother, Mark, born in 1955 on the base and who alaso, obviously lived in the three houses with us. This site has been responsible for some nice re-connections with friends from those days. Enjoy spring, everyone. Ron
