Memories of the Past
Members of the Irish Senior’s Drop-In have written their first-ever publication, “Memories of the Past” – a touching collection of stories and recipes.

The book is an exciting collection of stories that trace the sadness of leaving Ireland and the memories of a way of life which has changed dramatically since members emigrated from Ireland more than half a century ago. Other contributions trace the development of Irish culture in the Ottawa area and the strong links with Irish heritage that have survived time and memory.

Copies are available at the Drop-in Centre
To reserve a copy, tel. 613-737-5594
