A salute
to ‘Molly’

“I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year,
‘Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unkn-
own.’ And he replied, ‘Go out into the darkness and put
your had into the hand of God. That shall be to you better
than light and safer than a known way.’ So I went forth
and finding the hand of God, trod gladly into the night.
And He led me toward the hillsiand the breaking of the
day in the lone East.” Minnie Louise Haskins as quoted
by the late King George V1 in his Christmas broadcast
1989.

“Her life,” says the obituary, "was filled with joy and
caring. As a mother, grandmother; teacher and friend she
left some of herself in all of our lives.” And no one, in our
opinion, is more deserving of such an accolade than its
recipient, the late Jeannie Magdolitie; Magwood. “ rh
as she was known to all of her many friends here on the
coast, died in Vancouver on Aug. t6 of this year after a
Jong illness and was buried on Alig: 17 from the Chilli-
wack United Church.

Molly was born at Loon Creek in the Northwest Ter-
ritories in 1902 before Manitoba became a province. She
was one of the four children ‘of Solomon Brubacker
Musselman, a Methodist (later United) Church lay
preacher, and Fanny Eliza Musselman, who as Fanny
Smith had won the governor's gold medal at the Toronto
Normal School.

After completing her collegiate (high school) she
started teaching at age 17 in Saskatchewan's country
school system. Here she met fellow: teacher
Magwood. They were married, the first couple to do so in
the new church at Hoosier, by her grandfather, Smiley.

In 1946 the couple together with their two children,
Fran and Joan left their farm home in Maple Creek, Sask.
and moved to Robson where George had charge of the
two-room Castlegar-Robson High School. The other staff
member was former Castlegar teacher, Bill Shakwarok.

When I enrolled my first class of grade 9s in the old.

Robson Church hall in 1947 the high school staff soared to

obtained her senior matric and then proceeded to classes

~ in the teaching of the learning handicapped. It was in this

relatively new niche that she found: her true vocation so
that about 1950 she and Dr. Hugh Keenleyside esta-
blished the Maple School in Trail:< the first school for
the handicapped in the Kootenaya.,

Jn'1961 both Magwoods became in trans-

When Bob Sommers, prini
Elementary School (about where courthouse is now)
took this area for the Socreds and was appointed Minister
of Lands, Mines and Forests in 1953, George ‘went to
Victoria with him as his liaison officer. Molly got a job in
the Royal Jubilee Hospital as a teacher of long term
children patients and as a learning handicapped teacher.

One of her most successful patients in this latter
category was a totally helpless cerebral palsy patient,
Donnal Pistell, whom she first taught to type, using two
fingers while lying in the prone position. With this skill
established, Molly was then able to guide her pupil
through -y, then -y and on to iy
education levels. Today Miss Pistell is a published poet.

T recall also her gift of laughter and her sense of
humor which enabled her to laugh the loudest her own

and Robson during the 40s and a longtime, close friend of
the Magwoods. He put the entire matter in perspective
with his opening remark, “We are celebrating a joyful
life.”

This is confirmed byy Mrs. Bob Walkie who recalls
Molly as a warm and vital woman who not only took an
active part in the life of the. Robson Community Church
and local women’s groups but was “the most marvellous
baby sitter I ever had.” -

“She had”, Mrs. Walkie said, “A wonderful way with
children and I never saw a child who wouldn't come to her

It might have added, “And countless hundreds of the
rest of us, her friends and pupils, who were lighten-
ed by her laughter and who warmed ourselves at her
heart.” 4

Even as I write I can see her beloved George always
guardsman, slim and erect, stand a little higher on his
good leg, giving that small enigmatic twitch to his
eyebrow and smiling his humorous, enigmatic smile of
approval.
