Susie has been a Board of Education trustee for the Lambton Kent Distract School Board. She has also held numerous positions within the Walpole First Nation including a position on council, the health committee, advisor, and a member of the board of education. In retirement, Susie was able to dedicate much time to her passion for sharing the story of her experience with residential school. Susie spent a lot of time helping people understand the truth about Canada’s history. Susie’s kind heart also made sure that people learned about this part of our history with truth and kindness.
