My mother was a very humble person and a wonderful parent. She was an amazing cook and baker. ( People seemed to delight eating the brandy snaps she made as well as other lovely food.) She was also talented at arranging flowers. It was normal for us to have lovely flower arrangements in our home and she would also assist with the flower roster at church or for events in the town.

When a young girl, she attended speech classes and at the age of fifteen decided to a be a speech teacher which she continued for nearly fifty years. In her teenage years she was often asked to recite poems at gatherings and this continued for the rest of her life. At the end of each year she would organise a concert which her pupils participated, reciting poems or in little plays. Ida was also a member of a Drama Club and there she would usually take major parts in plays which were presented to the public.
