Our Guest this Month
Ainsley Christensen is the curator at the Garrison Petawawa Military Museum and has worked at the museum in some capacity or another for the last 20 years. Ainsley was born in Manitoba -moved to Petawawa in 1995 and haw been here ever since - minus a few years to attend post-secondary school in Kingston, ON).
Ainsley is a military spouse with three very active children ages 12, 10 and 9. As a result she I spends most of her time outside of work driving to activities and watching do all the things they love to do (hockey, volleyball, horseback riding, soccer to name a few!).
In this conversation, my cohost Claudia Beswick and I, talk to Ainsley about
· her work at the Garrison Petawawa Military Museum and some of the exhibits they have honoring Canada’s Military, those who served and the family members left behind
· the loss of her brother Sean Greenfield who was killed while serving in Afghanistan;
· what we as a military community can remember those who have been lost; and
· ways we can support their loved ones
Trigger warning: In this month's episode we discuss topics such as death and grief
