Legacy of a Life

It was a long drive to Campbell River but the ride across the Strait to Quadra Island is an easy 10 minutes where we gathered with friends of Camp Homewood to say goodbye to Marg Bayne. We commonly call this sort of gathering, a Celebration of Life and it was really was. Marge’s inspiration and impact on countless lives will continue long in our memories. It was one of those days where I felt privileged to be a part of this community, even if on the very edges of it.photo (17)

We remember her husband, Alf, who calmly comforted those who expressed sadness for our collective loss, but especially his.

These two remarkable people worked to bring hope and life first to remote communities on our coast and then to every soul who set foot on the Homewood property. Theirs is a rich legacy.

I wonder, what will be my legacy?
