I also heard that they had both passed away. It is sad that all their fabulous resources are no longer available - none of their children carried on the business and it was not sold to anyone who is selling their products. : (<br />I grew up in Edmonton and have many happy memories there. Enjoy the big sky for me.<br /><br />sandiSandi https://www.blogger.com/profile/06934275490850696637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082008635881738459.post-69045138660531356532012-07-08T12:10:01.008-07:002012-07-08T12:10:01.008-07:00Hi Sandi,

They were true masters of their craft.<br />THanks for sharing their work.<br />I believe that both of them have passed away now- I am not sure about that but fairly certain. They were my teaching mentors as a younger teacher.<br />Regards from Sunny Alberta,<br />Annaquiltmom annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01976120921532056369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082008635881738459.post-50888023404710972482012-07-07T00:28:39.048-07:002012-07-07T00:28:39.048-07:00you are so welcome

I think I have most of their books and pocket chart cards. My pocket charts and stand actually was ordered from them! My favourites are the cards that fill the whole pocket chart and then you retell the story. It is sad that their materials are no longer available. They are fabulous teaching resources.<br /><br />sandiSandi https://www.blogger.com/profile/06934275490850696637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082008635881738459.post-48191502460410182702012-07-06T15:23:16.628-07:002012-07-06T15:23:16.628-07:00So cute!
