“I retired at age 66 after a long career with the Correctional Service of Canada,” says Sara Shadbolt in the latest Tales from the Golden Age. The 82-year-old who lives in Mount Lehman, B.C., held several positions there, starting as a secretary, briefly as a guard, and then different administrative and project management roles. “It was an interesting career,” she adds.
Around Shadbolt’s retirement date, she tripped and ruptured a disc in her back, which made it worse. “I was already planning on getting back surgery, but this moved that date up several weeks.” While she was recuperating, she hired someone to pull the weeds out of her garden. Unfortunately, they pulled out half of her plants along the way. That’s when Shadbolt realized there must be a niche for experienced gardeners who can help seniors or anyone with limited mobility.
“When I walked into the hospital on the day of her death, I paused in the hallway and I said aloud the four words I often speak in difficult times, ‘God be with me.’ I then pushed open the hospital room door.
