You'll Never Forget To Love Us!
A Grandmother Remembers
by Selma Berg


What better inspiration for a memoir than the request of grandchildren to learn more about their heritage? It was just such a request that led Selma Berg to write her story, starting with an introduction to the history of the Russian Mennonites, her faith community. She draws on a number of family histories to record their harrowing escape from their village Kronstal in Ukraine to Germany during World War II. Stories of her arrival in Canada as a young girl are followed by tales of her life as a farm girl, student, elementary school teacher, librarian, wife, mother and grandmother. A special feature of the book is a substantial account of the year she and her husband spent in Guyana as CUSO volunteers.
