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!!
