Hi Bump. I remember you, but I think we called you Billie Murphy way back in our Shilo days. Karen, you are correct, the whole Turner tribe lived on Kingston Avenue at Citadel crescent, across from Ubique, like Bump remembers. Bob Findlay and Jerry Hennessey were two of my closer friends and we stayed in contact through the years. I lost touch with Jerry when I moved to Alberta. If anybody knows where he is, I'd appreciate an email. I still miss the Shilo crocuses in the spring, some of the friends, but not much else.

Hi Floyd,
Been a long time. ..Like you, I have a treasure trove and a Pandora box of fun and memories of Shilo. As they say " but It is a nice place to visit but never want to live there".
Thanx for mentioning the Henneseys. I was burning my brain trying to recall the last name. As I remember they were on opposite side of Ubique from me and down towards your place. Some other brothers. Their Mum and Dad were always fighting like the Hatfields and McCoys. Funny. Ditto for my Mum and Dad.
I really missed all my Shilo friends but certainly not the location or the weather conditions. Very hot or very cold. ...I love Vancouver Island(since1967).
I do not remember the Billie Murphy name. Life plays tricks.
I was RCAF Fire Fighter Crash Rescue/SAR Tech and all in the Cold War Nuclear age. ...After Shilo I was Grad at HS In Bedford NS. Then RCAF. Then on to a career HD Mechanics in the Forest Industry and then back to University once more and got all jenned up in E Commerce and B Commerce and Computer Programs and did CFBmy own thing with business until voluntary retirement. How about yourself?
I have tons of things I remember fondly about friends and stuff from Shilo. I could write a book.
My family is all back East. I am the rogue and renegade out,on the West Coast. Have never had much real contact with them. Time and distance creates a wedge. You know.
