Leaving a Legacy at Fircom
Over the years many individuals have left Camp Fircom generous bequests in their wills. We are so grateful for their generosity and for thinking of us in such a meaningful way.
Here at the Fircom city office we are currently in the process of moving to a new location. Through this, we have unearthed some amazing documents and photos. A record of the bequests left to Fircom over the past two decades brought a smile to all of our faces.
We’d like to take this time to thank and honour the following people (listed in alphabetical order) for these bequests, ranging from $500 to $100,000. The average gift value was over $32,000!
Campbell, Ruth Elaine
Currie, Lyall
Grant, Anne Moria
Kilgour, Marling
Kilgour, Ronald
Rosenberg, Elsie
Short, Beatrice
Skinner, Margaret Irene
Tillman, Frances “Frankie”
