  • I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Winnie Bennett I had the priviledge of working with her in Rankin Inlet. She was the best Mental Health worker and her heart was always with the children who were not being treated well by their families. Her passion for animals was heartfelt and I remember when she got Zoe and she was so good with that dog. I was honored to have known Winnie and I am a better person for it. - Posted by: Evie Thordarson (Friend) on: Apr 06, 2013
