Edith Nichols
 
Edith NIchols - 1926
Edith Nichols was born December 10, 1897 in Wesleyville, Ontario. She was the seventh child of Thomas Nichols and Harriet Miller. After the death of her father, her mother brought the family to Winnipeg to be near her brother, Jabez. Edith took a course in stenography at Success College and was employed at the Winnipeg General Hospital (later to be known as the Health SciencesCentre) . On June 5, 1926, Edith married Ernest Fennell and they had two children: When Ernest retired at the age of 65, he and Edith moved to Kelowna, British Columbia, near Mary Lou who moved there to work as a nurse. In 1960, Ernest passed away at age 68 and three years later Edith returned to Winnipeg and re-married. In 1965, she passed away at age 67. 

It is interesting to note, Edith's grandaughter, Maureen (me!) also went to Success College and has been employed at the Health Sciences Centre for nearly 25 years.
