My Nonprofit Reviews

I was working as a docent in our new home last week when an older lady walked into the museum with a favorite picture she wanted to share with us. It turned out that she had been coming to our shore town for 86 of her 92 years and she was thrilled to see the museum. Even though the museum was crowded with visitors on that rainy day I was able to sit with her and listen to her tell of walking the boardwalk (washed away in ’44) as a teenager and being told to put out their cigarettes by Coast Guardsmen because German subs could spot them. She had a dozen other great stories and she offered to sit for an oral history next week.

It doesn’t get much better than that.
