Finding Bill
As a child growing up on a farm in Eastern Ontario, Henrietta listened intently to dinner table stories about her parents' lives before and after WWII.
She never tired of the accounts of the family legend, Bill O'Neill, a Canadian soldier who briefly stayed in her parents' tiny home in Holland during the war. Impressed by his kindness and evident bravery her parents gave him a copy of their wedding portrait as a souvenir.
As she grew up, Henrietta did not forget those stories about Bill. The time had come to find him and let him know how much he had influenced her life.
Focusing mainly on the past, but relevant today for anyone seeking proof of the indomitable human spirit, Finding Bill shifts in time between the 1940s in Holland, the 1950s to 70s in Canada, and the present.
