A Saskatoon Story: Bea Goldberg lives in Vancouver but she grew up in Saskatoon. This is the story of her family.
I am so excited to get this film about my family and my growing up
I'm leaving my video for my grandchildren so they know about their family. Cory was just terrific because he asked questions that brought the best out of me. He is very good at interviewing.
I finally told my story...and his too!
I'd been wanting to give something to each of my six grandchildren that actually meant something. Giving them a movie with my story and my husband's will always remind them who they come from and that they are deeply loved.

There are events from my life that I had never told anyone. But I think my grand kids could learn something from the things that happened to me. So when Cory and I were together with the video camera...I shared those things. Now my grand kids know everything. I feel very proud.

It was so easy to do my video interviews.
Cory came to me and we chatted on my couch. Then he filmed my photo collection. I absolutely love my family history movie. I gave it to my grandchildren for Christmas and they were thrilled.
