The Tapps and Reeds found their chance to endure in the remote region of Ontario, north of Lake Huron. They scraped out a living from a farm on the granite boulder strewn Canadian Shield. When her father, the force behind their struggle to survive this landscape was killed by his tractor before her eyes, this little girl chose to advance and thrive. From her mother she drew on the quiet strength that guided their lives.
