Hi, my name is Susan.  I joined the Thrifty Boutique in 2010.  I had shopped many times there and found the place to be inviting and friendly.  As I was new to this area and had been volunteering all my life, I felt that this store would be a good fit for me.

Funny that I would end up working at sorting & pricing clothes as I am the least fashionable person going……but that is mainly where I work in the back sorting room where we have lots of fun and laughs.  I also look after the “Seasonal Storage Room” fondly called “Susan’s Christmas Room” by my backroom pals.  I enjoy the friendly people.  We are all a great team working for a great cause.

I have three sons and 9 grandchildren.  My eldest lives in Langley and is involved in the movie industry.  My middle son has a farm in Alberta and drives a logging truck.  My youngest lives in Langley and is a firefighter.  We are an active outdoors family enjoying skiing, fishing, hiking, quading, hunting, horseback riding.  In my spare time, I head to the gym and exercise classes or for long walks.  I am a voracious reader and doer of crossword and jigsaw puzzles.  I also cross stitch.

Important in my life are my friends…lots of time with friends and the occasional glass of wine.  Volunteering makes my heart smile!!
