About the event
Tricia Velure and Tom Sansei are local presenters of a book called Dust Yourself Off. This book tells the story of Tom’s Mother who was an immigrant from Norway and a North Dakota farmer, who in the 1940s and 1950s dusted herself off many times. If you like inspiring stories of an everyday woman who gets whispered about at ladies’ aid lunches or a good love story gets you every time, you will want to hear the story. Tricia and Tom will discuss how this book came to be written and why it was important to Tom to share his mother’s story.
