Autorenporträt
When she began writing her regular column "Reflections" for Northern Life newspaper in 2007, Erna de Burger Fex's goal was to make people laugh and creatively capture life as an immigrant in a new country and community. With grace, humour and at times poignant sadness, her column shared the joys of family life and the challenges of living and aging in Northern Ontario. More than 10 years later, she has earned countless laughs, tears, and applause from mothers, teachers, and miners and people of all walks of life who continue to thank her for the pleasure they got from reading "Reflections". De Burger Fex puts it all in loving perspective in this book as she looks back on remembrances of blueberry picking to pay for their first house, why wooden shoes are the best, meeting Princess Diana, and heading deep into the nickel mines to name a few. She is deservedly proud of her accomplishments at becoming a dedicated teacher and an integral part of her community.
